Chapter 16 Alchemy Association (《》)

The town of Anton is located to the east of the Bell Empire and is the only way to the Frederick Empire. It is only less than two days away from the border between the two countries and belongs to the border area.

Because it is close to the border and far away from the ruling centers of the two countries, and the vast land and sparsely populated areas, the security environment in Andong Town is very poor. There are all kinds of mercenaries and vendors everywhere, and even thieves who are shameful in other places dare to walk on the streets openly.

This is a paradise for adventurers, a paradise for smugglers, but it is also a hell for some people.

After more than half a month of trekking, the group of people from the college finally arrived in Andong Town that afternoon.

Rather than trekking, it is better to say it is a trip. A large group of people walk around and stop and travel all the way, otherwise there will be horses and cars, and it will be impossible for seven or eight days to walk for twenty days.

It doesn’t matter if the guards and mentors are, but the students are all crazy. Horse hunting, picnics and camping are all things that cannot be seen and played in the academy. Not to mention the cultural landscape and customs along the way, everyone sighed for this trip.

The main reason why the quota of each exchange meeting is so fierce is probably the main reason. Not everyone has the freedom and financial strength to travel in groups for free.

In an upscale hotel in Anton Town, Alex and his party packed a whole floor. Before they could get their luggage, the active students couldn't help but shout that they wanted to go out for a trip.

I spent more than 20 days sleeping in the open air and only entered the city a few times. Now I have arrived in a prosperous place like Andong Town. The guards and teachers couldn't help but hurriedly settled their luggage, and the group went out together.

As the dean, Lord Alex naturally had to be more reserved and did not get along with his mentors and students. And Alagang, who was his guard, and the family knights, also stayed.

After all the student tutors ran away, Alex slowly took a shower in the room, washed away the dust all the way, changed into clean clothes, and then called Alagang and others.

"Boss, if I hadn't called Gris?" Ala Gang felt pitiful. Although he was wrapped up as a mummy, Alex just wanted to prevent it and did not intend to pull him out to meet people.

During this period, although Gris didn't have to break himself up and lock him in a box, he had never left the carriage. Although he didn't think there was any problem, he couldn't bear it in Alagang's eyes. He took pets out from time to time, and Gris was even more pitiful than pets.

Gris's current outfit is basically no longer visible to the skeleton. With a cloak, he looks more like a dark mage or a thief who can't stand the light. It may attract attention in other cities, but in Anton Town, no matter how weird the outfit is, no one will pay too much attention to him.

Alex thought for a while and said, "Well, take him with you." It's not that Alex is kind-hearted, but that some things must be done in person to be perfect.

In the carriage, due to the lack of materials, he could only wrap a cloth strip to cover the cloak. However, after such transformation, Alex's ideas were completely broadened. The cloth strip was not elastic, so why not use gel? The cloak is too wide and is more inconvenient. It is better to use a one-piece robe and wear a mask on his face. The image is beautiful and realistic.

This series of inspirations were later produced on horse-drawn carriages, but limited to the material relationship, it has not been implemented until now. The town of Anton is basically the last town in the country. Going further down is the Frederick Empire. If you do something at that time, it will not be as convenient as the country.

So Alex plans to collect some materials here to completely transform Gris. If it is tailored, it is naturally the best thing for Gris to follow.

Hearing that he could go out with him, Gris' heart did not change much, and at most he was a little curious. Although Gris had developed a little curiosity in more than half a year, he was essentially the skeleton without desire. He could stay in a small place near the cave in the Death World for twenty generations, and staying in the carriage for more than twenty days was nothing.

Dressed in a big cloak, Gris followed Alex, his wide cap covering his entire face in the shadows, and his eyes covered by sunglasses silently looked around.

This was the first time Gris was on the street. There were countless humans coming and going around. The hawking and bargaining sounds came from time to time on both sides of the street. The various people walking on the street made Gris unable to help but amazed. This place was much more lively than the death world.

Both Alex and Alakung seemed to be familiar with Anton Town and basically didn't visit much. Instead, they walked directly to somewhere and got into the path, turning around and then heading into an alley.

The alley is relatively small and cannot pass through the carriage, but the lively level here is not inferior to the streets, with pedestrians all over the place one after another. Compared with the streets outside, most of the crowds here are swordsmen in armor, mages in robes, and many people who are obviously professionals, and even some ordinary people have a strong look on their faces.

This is the gathering place for professionals in Anton Town. It is backed by the Mage Guild and the Swordsman Guild. It has convenient transportation but is inconspicuous. It is most suitable for professionals to gather. Gradually, it spontaneously formed a distribution center for selling various weapons and materials and other common materials for professionals.

Basically every large city with a mage and a swordsman guild will have one or two such streets, almost all of which are spontaneously formed. For places like this, professionals are used to calling them secret cities.

When Alex was young, he had traveled to many places, and he also came to Anton Town, so he was naturally familiar with such a secret city.

The gathering place for professionals, there are more strange and strange dresses, and Gris's appearance is even more inconspicuous.

The group entered the Secret City and, under the leadership of Alex, walked directly to a shop at the end.

The store has a very large storefront, with a large sign hanging at the door, with only a golden word "日" on it. The word "日" is full of artistic sense, and the dazzling color makes this sign very conspicuous.

There is such a shop in the secret city of almost every city, which is the famous alchemy association.

Just like the mercenary association’s guild hall is mainly used to publish tasks, the guild hall of the mercenary association naturally has its own function, and its function is to sell goods.

Although it is not as influential as the Swordsman Guild and the Mage Guild, and not as powerful as the Mercenary Association, when it comes to wealth and power, no one can compare to the Alchemy Association except the Chamber of Commerce. The big sign at the door is not just gold in color, it is simply plated with real gold.

The alchemy system is huge, and there are many kinds of materials that can be used in alchemy, and some materials are very rare. Even the experience of alchemists cannot collect all the materials alone, so there is a need to exchange whether there is or not.

Rare materials are hard to come by, but you, an alchemist, cannot stay in the market all day to find the materials you need. A warlock with the same material cannot stay in the market all day waiting for you to come to the door. So the consignment business came into being.

With the development of the business, the Alchemy Association has gradually grown. In addition to consignment, they will also hire people to collect various materials for sale. Today, the Alchemy Association has developed into a large association with a series of functions such as collection, production, sales, and commissioning. All alchemy materials and tools can be found here.

Walking into the shop, a middle-aged man who was well-dressed but not luxurious came over and bowed slightly, giving a gift. The middle-aged man did not use aristocratic etiquette, but he just showed his good cultivation. A welcome guest who was not aristocratic but had good cultivation could show the strength of the Alchemy Association.

"Hello, a few distinguished guests, my name is Andrew, and I am the sorcerer assistant of the Anton Town Alchemy Association. Do you need any help?" said the middle-aged man politely.

Alex used to it, nodded with a smile, and then said directly: "Find some materials and borrow them from the laboratory."

"Please go up the second floor." Andrew stretched out his hand sideways and made a gesture of asking for help.

The Alchemy Association generally has laboratories to facilitate the rent of passing warlocks. Of course, this kind of laboratory is not too luxurious, and the equipment inside is basically all high-quality goods, so you can only do some simple tasks.

But this is enough for Alex for the time being.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to arrange the laboratory, Andrew asked everyone to go up the second floor first and walked away. After turning around the corner, Alex and others could not see it, Andrew, who had been smiling, immediately changed his expression. He pulled a waiter and said in a hurry: "I'll inform the president quickly that there is a distinguished guest coming, Mr. Alex, the great magician! Hurry. Also, they need a laboratory."

Ordinary people with status like Alex may not recognize them, but as a welcome guest at one of the Alchemist Associations in this country, Andrew cannot not recognize them. Before joining the company, each of them must undergo a systematic training to ensure that they can recognize the important powerful and top powerhouses of the mainland country as soon as possible.

When Alex walked in, Andrew, who recognized him, was so scared that his heart almost stopped. Thanks to long-term training, he kept calm and received the other party without any clues. However, he was not qualified to handle the guests like Alex, so he could only notify the person in charge of the club.

After notifying him, Andrew jogged back as fast as possible, and stopped until the corner was turned, tidied up his appearance, and then walked into the lobby with the peaceful posture he had been trained. At this time, the slow Alex and his party had just climbed to the second floor.
