Gerst branch.
Old Schmidt had been waiting for a long time after quince entered the first floor underground.
Old Schmidt: coming
Quince: Here we are
Old Schmidt: "listen to buddy, you have something to say."
Quince said calmly: "in fact, old Schmidt, you should have guessed a bit. I'm not Quinn Dodd. My name is quince Dodd."
Old Schmidt's face is a bit strange: "Dodd?"
Quince: isn't it surprising? Of course, since I'm a regular wizard, you should think that I can't be a thousand faces
Old Schmidt nodded: "indeed, this has always been my doubts, but now, I can probably think of why you can fake Quinn."
Quince: "with the ability of the investigation department, when I enter the investigation department, I should investigate Quinn's life experience clearly. When I was a child, there was a disaster in the Dodds' family. My parents died and my brothers were separated. I was sold to the training camp of secret film. But the world is so strange. After I betrayed the secret movie, I met my brother who was killed by the Viper gang. "
Old Schmidt: "so you in order to escape the pursuit of the shadow, homeopathy instead of Quinn's identity." A while ago, the secret film sent a large number of apprentices from the secret film training camp to hunt down the defectors like quince, which is no secret in the mysterious world.
Quince nodded calmly. It was the natural reaction of a fugitive.
Speaking of which, quince is waiting for old Schmidt.
, for a long time, old Schmidt said, "I heard that you have sold an intelligence to your Highness Princess."
After hearing this, quince was shocked. The information he sold, needless to say, was about the iron rose mansion at Tigh comprehensive university. There were only four people present at that time, excluding three royal family members. The rest
Quince said cautiously, "do you always know Master Boswell?"
Old Schmidt hummed, did not answer: "read in your special situation, next time not as an example."
"Well Quince is speechless. Is that the only way to let it go?
The reason why he took the risk to reveal his identity was that he was vaguely aware that the old Schmidt had some awareness of him, not to mention the secret self-examination in the investigation department.
If it's normal, he won't risk staying in the investigation department. But with the information provided by William, he knows that Tigh is tight on the outside and loose on the inside. All the extraordinary people are only allowed to enter and not to leave now. If he really tries to break out, he is sure that no matter the cult disciples or the official or the Orthodox Church will let him go out. Trains, airships, ships, land. Every person associated with hell creatures, even if there is a trace of connection, a trace of suspicion, will not be released.
Tigh, it's a whirlpool. It's all of Tigh's extras.
Therefore, in this case, quince can think of, only thoroughly join a force, in order to survive in the next vortex. As for why it's the investigation department instead of other churches and royal families, the answer is naturally that it's better to be a student than a professional. Quince has gained a lot of trust in the investigation department. In addition, the investigation department is short of manpower, which means that after he really joined, he will not be used as cannon fodder as he joined other organizations.
Quince left behind in other passes and was able to escape with the help of William when the situation was not right. There was only one last pass. Seeing old Schmidt, quince had no retreat, either living or dying. Although he has never seen old Schmidt, he believes that his cards will not work in front of old Schmidt.
But no matter which organization you join, you have to pass the last hurdle. If you don't fight, who will know the result. Besides, as I said before, it's better to be familiar than to be a student. He is at least 70% sure that old Schmidt will not be a killer.
Old Schmidt: "and welcome to the investigation section."
The stone in quince's heart finally fell and passed.
Quince: Yes
Old Schmidt waved his hand: "go down, little boy."
"Yes," said quince, turning to leave. Suddenly quince was afraid: "Oh, I almost forgot to tell you an information. Since you know the information I sold to the princess, you don't know that Frederick is Tigh's famous thief, and he has reached an agreement with the princess at the dinner party to help the princess in exchange for the title."
Old Schmidt looked at quince, who wanted to ask for credit, and said, "I know."
Quince was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, he thought it would be a nomination after he joined the investigation department. He didn't have any pressure to sell the princess.
Looking at quince's far away figure, old Schmidt murmured: "good boy, the ability to collect intelligence is not small, worthy of being from the shadow."
The shotgun buddy turned out from the dark and came to the old Schmidt: "things over there have been cleaned up, old man. You are really good at this move. You said that the hidden shadow was a hell creature disguised. Those stupid people really changed. The investigation headquarters found two and the North District branch found one. A mother of ten thousand snakes church, a evil spirit church, have been detained. There is also a steam and steel church, there is no alarmOld Schmidt: "well done."
It's an unsettled day tonight. Although it only involves the fight between the investigation department and the secret film, there are many people watching the play around. No matter who has suffered a great loss of strength, the investigation department and the secret film are all loved by others, so no one has come to take part in it.
Quince turns to his bedroom and combs the whole process of the night. The fight with the shadow assassin is the most dangerous one for him tonight. There are luck and many preparations for it. What plays a key role in it is the magic card of vanity.
Even he didn't expect that the effect of ring 1's void demon pet psionic affinity was so remarkable after it was advanced that it directly made him accomplish the magic of defending the enemy's first chance and turn the world around to win. No wonder there are only three opportunities in a month, and one will cost one crystal.
After sorting out, quince ponders over the road after the wizard. Now, he has two main things to prepare. One is to start to learn inscriptions, which is the foundation of all wizard's road. Moreover, he has an ambition to create his own rune system. In this way, he has a better chance to create his own Rune language than others The wizard of rune system is much higher. He is a civilian, no backstage, no good background, want to have a good future, only rely on their own to fight.
The second is to learn the basic strange things, which is the preparation for refining the death card. Going to the alchemy workshop tomorrow to learn strange things from William is one of the purposes why he has always maintained a friendly alliance with William. It's not that he can't directly exchange the secret books of strange things for self-study, but if he has a good tutor to lead the way, he can go on the road of strange things without many detours.
All night long.
The next day, quince came to William's Alchemy workshop early. At this time, William disheveled, is absorbed in the study of the shadow line ball just arrived yesterday.
Quince took his seat leisurely: "how about it? Has anything been worked out? "
William was stunned. He didn't notice that quince had arrived at the alchemy workshop. Then he said, "no, the secret treasure is a secret treasure. If I can solve the secret in one night, how can it be regarded as a secret treasure?"
"In that case, let's put it first, and there will be plenty of time to study later. You won't forget what you said yesterday
William coughed: "don't worry, it's clear. Wait for me to take a shower
Five minutes later, William was standing in front of quince fresh.
"Don't say much, let's get to the point," said William
Quince: "I can't get it."
William: "we need to understand the origin of alchemy before we can talk about strange things."
After a pause, William continued: "I think you know the origin of alchemy, that is, the pursuit of turning stone into gold and immortality. This was the ultimate pursuit of alchemy, and also the most simple idea of alchemists at that time."
Quince was a little surprised: "ever? Isn't it now? "
William shook his head and nodded again: "it's not uncommon to turn stone into gold. You should have heard of the secret biography of golden hand."
William continued: "even if there is no secret alchemist, some alchemists can take some time to achieve it, but the cost is too high to be worth the loss."
Quince nodded. It's a very popular secret. It's in the investigation department. Metaphorically speaking, the gold finger is the product of industrialization, while the high-cost gold finger is the laboratory product.
Quince: immortality
William shook his head: "half the success, half the failure."
Quince: what do you say
William does not want to say more: "in the future you will naturally know."
Quince: Well, what about now? Has the ultimate pursuit of alchemy changed
William: "it's changed and divided. With the development and refinement of alchemy, there are many branches of alchemy, such as strange things, secret medicine, biology, elementalism, puppet science and so on. There are also many common pre disciplines, such as Rune literature, blood science and mechanics. It can be said that nowadays, alchemy has developed into alchemy. It is impossible for a person to master all the branches of alchemy. The ultimate pursuit of each branch discipline is different, and even the pursuit of the same branch discipline is different in different schools. "
"For example, the school I belong to pursues a more orthodox pursuit of strange things, that is, forging perfect artificial treasures."
Quince's heart was warm: "the secret of artifice? That's why you care so much about the secret treasure. "
William: of course, there is a physical research, which is very helpful for my inspiration on the artificial secret treasure
"Well, to get back to the point, in alchemy, no matter which branch is involved, there are no more than two aspects, form and spirit."
Quince asked, "form and spirit? What is shape? What is spirit? "
