Chapter 370: True Alchemy
Translator: Lonelytree
Zeller was sorting out the documents and didn’t say anything.
Rheagar silently raised the Alliance Weekly and focused on reading.
Only Matthew smiled at Lorraine.
However, the distance between the two of them was quite far, so it was not convenient for them to hug.
Lorraine didn’t mind. He sat lazily on the sofa and put his legs on the table in front of Zeller.
The latter raised his eyebrows and remained silent.
“Is there any interesting news?”
Loraine asked Rheagar.
Rheagar hated being disturbed when he was reading the newspaper, but out of courtesy, he still replied in a muffled voice,
I just read an interesting piece of news. A group of gnolls attacked the army camp in Lion City. The gnolls were old, weak, sick, and weak. They couldn’t withstand a single blow. There were less than twenty of them, but they actually caused the loss of members of the Lion City army. Guess what happened?”
Lorraine replied casually,
I’m guessing that a soldier got drunk and mistook the gnolls for bugbears. Then, he ignored the gnolls’ wishes and forced himself onto them. In the end, he broke his back because of his intense behaviour after getting drunk and was killed by the gnolls who were ashamed and angry.”
Rheagar frowned.
“How did you know? I didn’t get it wrong, right? This is the Alliance Weekly that just arrived today.”
As he said that, he especially flipped through the front page to confirm the date.
Lorraine smiled.
“Is there any other news?”

“There’s a rather interesting piece of information about fund-raising. To be specific, there’s a high-level mage from the Seven Saint Alliance who’s trying to raise funds for her experimental project. The target is 100,000 gold coins.
“The mage claimed that she was willing to share the results of her spell research with investors after the matter was settled.
‘Guess what she’s researching?”
Before Rheagar finished his sentence. Lorraine replied fluently,
” That must be ‘True Alchemy’!
” I also know some historical information about this mage. In her last round of experiments, she used real alchemy and successfully refined a pile of sand into gold worth 100,000 gold coins.”
True Alchemy?
Wasn’t that Margaret?
Matthew asked with interest,
“Isn’t she very successful? Why does it sound like she’s in need of investors?” This time, without waiting for Lorraine to reply, Rheagar cut to the chase. “Because her stupid experiment cost a total of one million gold coins!
“Hahahahaha!”
Rheagar looked overjoyed.
Lorraine elegantly picked up a cup of tea and took a sip. He asked,
“Is there no other explosive news?”
Rheagar frowned as he scanned the newspaper.
Half a minute later.
He said in surprise,
“What? My favourite author has released a new work!
” You definitely won’t be able to guess the name of this work this time!”
Even though he said that.
But he still looked nervously at Lorraine.
However, this time, Lorraine just drank his tea and did not say a word.
Rheagar heaved a sigh of relief and then revealed a smug expression.
He greeted Matthew, who curiously leaned over and found the words on a large board in the supplement.
[Try out ‘Rainforest Fever: The Untold Story of the Necromancer and I’!
Author: Deep Blue Harbor’s Number One Affection.
A semi-autobiographical masterpiece!
Best reservation of the year!
A production by a veteran screenwriter!
One of the ten must-read books this summer!]
There were also many comments from the book reviewers below, all of which were full of praise. It felt like they had spent a lot of money to buy the reviews.
Matthew felt his cheeks burning.
Rheagar glanced at the text and said in surprise,
“Matthew, the main character of this work actually has the same name as you!
Isn’t this too much of a coincidence?”
Loraine, who was sitting on the sofa, could not help but stretch. There was a hint of embarrassment in his smile.
” I didn’t expect to meet a reader who likes me here. This can’t be considered a coincidence. ”
Rheagar looked at Lorraine, then looked down at the newspaper in his hand. Suddenly, he understood everything.
In the next moment.
A feeling of disillusionment appeared in his eyes.
The atmosphere in the office was a little awkward.
Rheagar’s gaze was no longer on the newspaper.
He looked at Lorraine with a complicated and bashful gaze. Matthew coughed.
So, are the contents of Alliance Weekly related to you?”
Lorraine said with certainty,
“I’m one of the senior writers of this newspaper and one of the important sources of information. Generally speaking, if the reason for the report is ‘an authoritative person who does not wish to be named,’ it is basically the information provided by me.
‘ You know what I’m capable of. It’s very useful to use Alley Gossip to provide materials for Alliance Weekly. They’re also willing to pay a high price for these materials. ”
Matthew revealed an envious expression.
Soon after.
He asked curiously,
“Did you catch any news about Rolling Stone Town?”
Lorraine closed his eyes and focused.
His ears twitched slightly.
A moment later.
He opened his eyes, snapped his fingers, and chanted,
“I have it.
“An unpopular rumour.
“There was a disheartened Druid.
“He turned into a kitten.
“He was playing with a white cat.
“He didn’t know that the white cat was his enemy.
“She was a spy sent by the Cult of Withering.
“She came with ill intentions.
“She approached the kitten.
“Just to win the opportunity to occupy the oak forest…”
Before he could finish singing.
Matthew rushed out.
