Chapter 286

Chapter 286

“Strange?”

Cainando is a sacrifice.

No matter how hardships change people, can they change like this?

Yoner tilted his head. Lee Han did not give his friend time to think.

“You have to move quickly. Yoner! I do not have time!”

“Ah… that’s right. It did. huh!”

Kainando’s rush was much more effective than expected.

Whether the curse magic was particularly effective or the cheeky sprint offended the plant, the sand octopus raised its body that was firmly guarding the turning point and started chasing Kainando.

At first, even the lightning-walking professor, who said, ‘I should have told you not to attack the sand octopus!’ couldn’t help but admire it.

I managed to pull out that sand octopus!

“Provocation is also a skill. excellent!”

Gainando’s horse ran away from the legs of the chasing sand octopus as if possessed.

“help me!!”

“What is Kainando saying?”

“I can not hear you! Ask later and run!”

“Now is your chance, friends!!”

Not only Lee Han and his party, but also the other top students who were looking for an opportunity drove their horses with all their might.

In preparation for an unexpected situation, Lee Han cast magic on his friends’ horses.

“Be full!”

Under Ogonin’s full satisfaction spell, the horses remained composure even as sandy winds blew from all directions.

Whoops!

Ponrig grumbled, as if asking why he wouldn’t do it.

“run! It’s dangerous if he comes back!”

All over again!

Dead heat on all sides.

The competition was fierce enough that the first student who scored the half point would receive a higher score.

thud!

Lee Han collided with a Black Turtle Tower student who ran from the side. Ponrig let out an angry growl.

“Be patient. Phone League.”

“Wardanaz. I wouldn’t call it cowardly. As much as it is a competition, I will not back down!”

“i get it.”

Lee Han immediately swung his staff and threw the water beads away.

The Black Turtle Tower student, who did not know that he could even cast magic while sprinting like this, was eliminated.

Whoa…?!

Ponrig was bewildered even while running with full force. Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

I shouldn’t attack, but can I become the owner?

* * *

Returning late, Gainando shouted as he shook off his sandy clothes.

“Hey, this cowardly ship…”

“I was impressed. To lure monsters alone for the sake of your friends.”

Professor Lightningwalker said in a voice mixed with admiration. Then, Cainando immediately replied.

“…It was difficult, but I thought it was an honorable duty as a member of the imperial family.”

‘I think I learned that from Lee Han.’

Yoner looked at Gainando and thought to himself.

I didn’t know anything else, but it wasn’t that quick.

I thought about who there was to see and learn from, and there was only one.

“thanks. Guinan Island.”

“Thanks to you, I passed!”

“I didn’t know you would sacrifice so much!”

Other top students also flocked to us and thanked us.

Having pulled out the sand octopus by himself, I couldn’t be more grateful. Even the students who normally disliked it for being unlucky came to express their gratitude.

Gainando looked around at his friends with a thrilled expression, then nodded and replied.

“It was not an easy choice.”

“But what did you say earlier?”

“I told you to take good care of me.”

“Was it that long…?”

While Gainando was talking in the back, Lee Han confirmed his grades with Professor Lightning Step.

“It’s perfect.”

“thank you. professor.”

“You didn’t have to say every word, you did everything well… I have a question, but why did you mistake the sand octopus for a hydra earlier?”

Lee Han hesitated.

And after thinking for a while, he said.

“I heard that Professor Thunderwalker brought a hydra.”

“what? okay?”

The Lightning Striker seemed really surprised.

The fact that even the professor didn’t know made Lee Han’s head complicated.

‘what?’

“If that’s true, I managed to bring you here. It used to be like that, but it must be harder to find these days. Shall I ask you to show me?”

“Didn’t the professor know?”

“I didn’t hear. Maybe it was because he was too lazy to listen to me.”

As a renowned explorer in the empire, Professor Lightning Walk was good at handling all kinds of monsters and animals.

Of course, if Professor Thunderwalker had brought a hydra, he was going to give all sorts of advice on how to raise it.

“Can you guess why Professor Thunderwalker brought you here?”

“well? I don’t have to know everything about him. Maybe it’s because we need it for potion research?”

Wizards basically had no interest in anything other than their own research.

Even if Professor Thunderwalker secretly brought Hydra, that was Professor Thunderwalker’s job, not Lightningwalker’s job.

Of course, I was concerned about whether I raised Hydra well or not…

“Could there be a problem related to Hydra in the final exam?”

Lee Han asked, but the lightning-walking professor said, ‘Could that be?’ I wanted you to answer ‘That’s nonsense’.

“oh! I never thought of that.”

However, Professor Lightning Walk looked at Lee Han as if he had a good idea.

“Maybe.”

“……”

Lee Han sighed inwardly.

‘I should have waited on the day the hydra was brought in and then made a surprise attack.’

I never thought I would pay for my carelessness like this!

* * *

Professor Thunderstruck crossed his arms and waited for the students with a triumphant face.

“Are you here?”

“hello. professor.”

“The test you will take today may destroy your soul.”

“……”

“Cheer up!”

The student who entered glared at him and went in, but Professor Thunderwalk didn’t care.

The test he made was intoxicating himself.

The final exam questions were carefully tailored to the level right before the skeleton principal said, ‘Isn’t this a bit harsh?’

If this was the case, I could shatter the souls of cheeky freshmen who said, ‘I think I now know what alchemy is’ after finishing their assignments before midterms or finals.

“hello. professor.”

Lee Han entered with a hard face. The thunder walk professor also nodded.

A disciple who raised the difficulty level of the test because he got a perfect score on an assignment that was not supposed to get a perfect score was coming.

Indeed, the disciple must have intuited his fate, and his face hardened.

“The test must have been quite difficult than last time.”

“I guess.”

Lee Han said with a sigh.

The replacement professors couldn’t figure out why they were doing this.

Isn’t it a good thing if students do well on exams?

‘The professor taught me well, so I’ve seen it well, but why is my pride hurt?’

“okay. Exactly. Cuckoo…”

“……”

Professor Thunderstruck was so happy that he forgot the possibility that his student might come to assassinate him after graduation and laughed.

Lee Han stared at Professor Thunderwalker and vowed that next time he would ambush him wearing a mask at night.

‘How on earth are you going to use the hydra?’

I talked to my friends before I came, and I talked to them while I was coming, but I really couldn’t guess.

-Isn’t it necessary to hunt the hydra and use its poison as an ingredient for a potion?

– Are you crazy ?! It can’t be. Even so, at least subdue the hydra or persuade it to borrow poison.

-That’s crazy enough.

-Doesn’t the poetry test actually have nothing to do with Hydra? It could be.

-Are you the Einrogard wizard? How can you have such a foolish thought?

-I think it’s clear that we need to get materials from Hydra.

-Hydra might be guarding the ingredients…

“Please let me know as I am prepared.”

“okay. shall we start.”

Professor Thunder Walk walked forward.

The students waited for the professor’s next move with tense eyes.

What kind of test is it?

Giyola’s Dansa Potion

Irzunden’s Nightmist Potion

Aurum’s Spirit-Amplifying Potion

Dobruk’s Lime Potion

…

…

the names of the potions that filled the board.

Among them, there were many potions he had never heard of.

Professor Wooregeol said while enjoying the reaction of the students who were overwhelmed.

“I am not choosing one of these. Submit all possible potions here before the end of today’s lecture.”

All of them are laborious and tricky potions.

Among them, there were potions that could not be made without combining other potions.

In short, I thought I would never be able to make all of them, so I made a list of potions!

It was a really deliberate test.

The thunder walk professor turned his gaze to Lee Han. As expected, the outstanding disciple was hesitating.

“professor?”

“Why? If there is anything you want to ask, just ask.”

“Isn’t Hydra coming out?”

“Hydra? What… no wait! How did you do that?!”

Professor Wooreegeol was surprised.

How could he know that he had been secretly brought along at night so that the other professors, especially Professor Lightningwalker, could not see it?

“I happened to see it.”

“Such stupid gold… yes. Can’t help it if you saw it I bought it with a big heart and robbed it. Maybe I’ll get some help when I look after her later.”

I wanted to steadily extract the hydra’s venom, but adult hydras were too expensive and difficult to manage.

So Professor Thunderwalk had no choice but to buy a baby hydra.

If you grow it moderately, you will be able to produce a similar effect.

“Is that all?”

“what? Are you really suspecting that I tricked others into sneaking in? Absolutely not! It was all done with permission.”

Professor Wooregeol said firmly, fearing that Lee Han would misunderstand.

He brought Hydra from outside, but he couldn’t hide it even from the skeleton headmaster.

“I don’t mean…”

“?”

“Wasn’t the hydra appearing in the test?”

“Why is Hydra coming to the test?”

Professor Thunder Walk looked at Lee Han as if he was talking about something.

Why did Hydra appear in the first year alchemy test? That was nonsense.

“…well, that’s right.”

“yes?”

Lee Han went back to his seat with a convinced face.

It was only then that Professor Wooregeol realized that he hadn’t heard his impressions of the test because he was talking about Hydra.

‘this. It’s a pity.’

I really wanted to see him kneeling in front of the depth and greatness of alchemy and feeling his own insufficiency…

Taktaktak –

Lee Han quickly took out the potion from his backpack and laid it out.

It was a potion that was difficult to make together.

Moreover, the quality did not deteriorate. As if it was made with great care in an alchemist’s workshop.

‘no…?!’

Professor Wooreegeol was astonished.

I guessed that Lee Han had somehow managed to get the potion from outside, but I thought there were only two or three more bottles left.

How can a student who has no proper way to bring in and no gold coins do that?

While Professor Thunderwalk was shocked and unable to speak, Lee Han proceeded with his work step by step.

Make a fire under the cauldron and start making potions that can be made with the ingredients you have now…

‘You’re lucky.’

I was worried about how Hydra would come out and wreak havoc, but it had nothing to do with it.

Thanks, the exam wasn’t that difficult.

In the first place, didn’t he sweep up various potions to prepare for this?

After combining the three completed potions and swinging the staff, Irzunden’s Night Fog Potion was completed.

“Aren’t you really happy? Hydra doesn’t come out. I was worried, but I’m relieved.”

“Professor Lee Han is staring at you.”

Yoner felt Professor Thunderwalker’s gaze and whispered.

The professor was so shocked that he was shaking all the way to the tip of his beard.
