Bright Sword: I don’t want to be the king!

Zhong Wei was furious and roared, "Cao Geng, you shameless elf, I will not leave, I want to stay as a witness, I want to see what miracles you can create in this magic."

Cao Geng sighed and replied helplessly: "Why bother? I am not expelling you, but you are indeed interfering with my magic practice here."

Zhong Wei was helpless: "Okay, I promise you, I will not ask about your affairs in the future, but I must stay. I don't believe that you can summon the healing potion 'Penicillin' by refining breadstone and extracting the essence of rice grains. Wouldn't my two years of research be in vain?"

Cao Geng almost said "You are nothing", but finally restrained himself. If the old man suffered from heart failure due to anger, it would not end well.

"Okay, I'll tolerate you for the last time. Let me tell you, as the leader of the magic research group, I'm also a legion commander. I have to study healing magic and train soldiers. Military training is my main job, do you understand? You know nothing and you're here making trouble all day long."

Zhong Wei finally shut up and dared not talk nonsense anymore, for fear of angering Cao Geng and asking him to call him back, so that he would not be able to witness Cao Geng's embarrassment.

He wanted to wait here and witness Cao Geng's failure with his own eyes. Then he would see how he would humiliate this ignorant young man.

This kid is too arrogant. If he is not taught a lesson, how can he learn to respect his elders?

Unfortunately, no matter where he goes, people are full of respect for Mr. Zhong.

He suddenly came here at this moment, and Cao Geng didn't give him face. How could he adapt?

The next day.

Cao Geng led Zhou Xueman into the magic laboratory.

Zhou Xueman looked confused and didn't know what to do next.

Cao Geng took out a huge glass cup, sealed the top with a transparent magic film, and then cut a small hole in the film.

Zhou Xueman didn't understand what was going on and just stared with wide eyes.

Cao Geng took out a magic funnel, stuffed it with medical magic cotton, and then poured the cultured potion liquid onto the cotton to filter.

As he poured the dough, he explained: "This step is to separate impurities."

Zhou Xueman understood as soon as she heard it.

After filtering, Cao Geng poured an appropriate amount of rapeseed essential oil into the glass and said to Zhou Xueman, "Come on, stir it!"

Zhou Xueman took the clean magic chopsticks and started stirring.

"what?"

When Zhou Xueman finished stirring, she found that the liquid in the cup was divided into three layers.

Cao Geng explained: "Now, you need to use the small magic spoon to slowly skim off the grease on the top. I believe you can distinguish between oil and water. Just leave the water at the bottom."

Zhou Xueman did as she was told immediately.

When Zhou Xueman finished, Cao Geng added carbon powder and said to Zhou Xueman, "Keep stirring."

Zhou Xueman quickly obeyed the order and asked while stirring: "What does this do?"

Cao Geng replied: "Carbon can absorb the magical elements of Penicillium."

Wait until the liquid in the cup is completely absorbed by the carbon, take out the carbon, and wash it with a small amount of distilled magic water.

Then wash the carbon again with the vinegar and water mixture.

Finally, wash with seaweed essence water.

At this point, everything is done...

So, the two repeated this wonderful ritual, refining the spiritual fluid in the second crystal bowl, stirring it, and washing away the carbon dust with star water.

Then comes the third bowl, and the fourth, and the cycle repeats.

Zhou Xueman quickly mastered this mysterious task. However, even though the two worked hard all day, they still hadn't finished everything.

The next day, Li Yueying descended like a star and immediately integrated into this unique mission.

When the shadows of the sun grew longer the next day, the three of them had finally processed all the spiritual liquids in the one hundred mysterious small bowls.

Cao Geng divided the resulting liquid evenly into about a hundred crystal stone cups and instructed the two women to mark the numbers.

A few days passed, waiting patiently.

Cao Geng led the two ladies over, dipped a little liquid with a magic cotton swab, and dripped each into the center of the crystal cup...

Seven days later.

The assistant mentor came galloping in a magic carriage, and entered the alchemy laboratory together with the planeswalker and the wise elder.

With the permission of his assistant tutor, Zhong Wei was also allowed to enter Cao Geng's secret world.

His existence was mainly because the assistant tutor wanted him to identify the mystery of the legendary penicillin.

Is this true? The deputy mentor, the planeswalker, and the wise man were all unable to identify it, only Zhong Wei could see it clearly at a glance.

Although he never produced penicillin, he had accumulated a lot of research on its samples.

Whether it is successful or not, the answer will be revealed today.

With the protection of his assistant tutor, Zhong Wei was insolent.

Entering the laboratory, he smiled arrogantly and said, "Cao Geng, is this your alchemy room? Isn't it a little too plain?"

Cao Geng did not get angry, and responded with a faint smile: "Your laboratory is magnificent, what about the results?"

Zhong Wei's face suddenly darkened.

"Then I want to see what you can show today."

The Master, the Wise Elder, and the Assistant Mentor were all silent. Although they were not at the scene, they knew about Zhong Wei and Cao Geng's past.

Cao Geng led them to a row of crystal cups.

Zhong Wei laughed out loud.

"Comrade Cao Geng, what are you going to do? Invite us to taste the fine wine?"

Cao Geng ignored him and looked down at the cups. Seeing that there was no mold in the center, only a circle around the edges, a smile gradually spread.

"Look, three mages, this is the penicillin you desire."

Zhong Wei instantly laughed out of sarcasm.

"Cao Geng, I see you brought us here to watch your funny show? Where is your penicillin?"

The three mages felt nervous when they heard this.

Is it really unsuccessful?

Well, if Zhong Wei says it didn’t work, then it definitely didn’t work.

Cao Geng picked up a clean crystal cup with his left hand, grabbed a magic dropper, sucked up the annular mold, and carefully put it into another clear cup.

He raised the cup and said to everyone, "Look carefully, this is the penicillin you are looking for."

The three mages looked at each other in confusion.

"Haha, if penicillin is so easy to make from these jars and pots, would I still need to study it for two years?"

Zhong Wei's words made the three mages' hearts drop to the bottom.

As he spoke, he glanced into the cup with disdain.

Then he stopped.

His eyes suddenly widened, his mocking words stuck in his throat, and his face turned red...

That expression was as if he had glimpsed a forbidden phantom.

"This...this...how is this possible?"

"Oh my god, is this a miracle?"

"How could Penicillin, the real Penicillin, be real?"

At this moment, Zhong Wei's words were broken like the whispers in a dream, and he fell into a fog of shock.

Cao Geng chuckled and said, "Is it because the distance is too far and you can't see clearly? Come, this way you should be able to see clearly."

As he spoke, Cao Geng used the magic rubber-tipped dropper to draw up a tube of liquid and poured it into the crystal glass.

Now, everything is crystal clear.

"It's Penicillin, it's really Penicillin!"

Zhong Wei could hardly control himself. He picked up a cup of liquid with trembling hands and looked for the magic dropper eagerly.

Cao Geng casually handed him the dropper. He took it and, imitating Cao Geng, lowered his head to inhale a drop, but then poured it into the clean cup in his left hand.

In an instant, his eyes widened as round as copper bells.

"Yes, it is Penicillin, as expected..."

Zhong Wei stared at the array of cups on the table with wide eyes.

"Oh my god, so many?"

The three doctors were unable to remain calm.

The deputy director stepped forward quickly, stared at Zhong Wei and asked, "Mr. Zhong, are you sure? Is it really Penicillin?"

Zhong Wei nodded blankly and said affirmatively: "Yes, it is Penicillin, all of it."

"All of them?"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Even though the deputy manager was a calm and composed person all his life, he couldn't help laughing at this moment.

"Success! It really succeeded! Hahahaha..."

"God help our Liberator Corps...hahahaha..."

The brigade commander and the political commissar were also trembling with excitement.

What you see before you is penicillin, which is as precious as gold!

Oh my god, it's wonderful.

Zhou Xueman and Li Yueying couldn't help cheering either. They hugged each other tacitly, jumping and dancing to celebrate this magical alchemy.

Cao Geng stepped forward and said, "Doctors, don't be too happy too soon. Only the green plum-shaped ones in the cup are real penicillin. In fact, there are not many."

The deputy director said: "It's enough, it's enough. It's enough to be able to extract it. Haha...Cao Geng, you are a hero of our Liberator Corps, a great benefactor! In the future, every injured warrior will remember your kindness!"

Cao Geng smiled awkwardly: "Doctor, you are too kind. Just don't let me execute you for treason."

The deputy director was suddenly speechless.

"You little brat, you really hold a grudge! Don't worry, no one will shoot you. You are the treasure of our army! Who dares to touch a hair on your head? Haha..."

The lab was filled with laughter and everyone was sharing the joy.

Only Zhong Wei stood there in a daze, staring at the sea of ​​cups in front of him.

"How is this possible? How can Penicillin be made in this way? How can Penicillin be made with just a few steamed buns, a few grains of rice and these bottles and jars?"

The deputy director stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Mr. Zhong! This world belongs to the younger generation. We are all old."

In fact, the deputy director is not old, he said this just to appease Zhong Wei's mood...

At this moment, Zhong Wei's face was full of tears, and the tears in his ancient eyes were sparkling with magical brilliance.

He whispered with a trembling voice: "That's right! That is the fantasy world that belongs to the young braves. We old men are already worn out by the years. I am satisfied, very satisfied, to be able to witness the appearance of penicillin before my eyes!"

Although this magical potion was not his creation, at this moment, no one could understand the persistence and passion in his heart.

Zhong Wei, despite his flaws, is indeed a true magic scholar.

His competition with Cao Geng largely stems from his urgent desire to see the birth of this miraculous potion.

Witnessing Cao Geng's intermittent research while he himself was unable to get involved, he was extremely anxious.

Among this group of people, Zhong Wei was the most eager to reveal the secret of penicillin, even though it was not created by him.

Even though it was a little embarrassing, he still hoped Cao Geng would succeed.

At this moment, his heart was filled with joy and ripples of relief.

Just then, a low roar suddenly came from outside.

When everyone heard the sound, they were instantly horrified and their bodies froze.

The brigade commander shouted loudly: "Quick, everyone, follow me and enter the city crypt! Quick, protect everyone entering, enemy planes are approaching, quick..."

The brigade commander and the political commissar grabbed the deputy director and hurried out.

The outside world is in chaos at this moment.

Duan Peng rushed in and shouted loudly: "Everyone, leave quickly, the enemy airship is coming. Enter the city defense crypt quickly..."

The deputy director shouted hurriedly: "Cao Geng, escort Xiaoman and Xiaoli, hurry up..."

Cao Geng hurriedly grabbed Zhou Xueman and Li Yueying and rushed towards the dungeon.

During these two months, the soldiers dug many caves to defend against airships, as they had anticipated the threat of enemy aircraft.

In fact, the arrival of enemy planes today was not accidental.

Instead, the deputy director's whereabouts were leaked, and the information fell into the hands of the enemy, which attracted the airship.

In fact, the enemy has long been trying to destroy Luyang City, but air attacks require a large amount of magic crystals.

Therefore, they are unwilling to bear this high price unless it is necessary.

But today was different. The deputy director's arrival became an opportunity to launch an attack, and the enemy's airship had a reason to soar.

As the deputy director and Cao Geng stepped into the dungeon, there were loud noises coming from outside, which were the roars of explosions.

The earth trembled, as if roaring in indignation.

Cao Geng suddenly asked loudly: "Brigade Commander, where is Mr. Zhong?"

"what?"

Everyone was stunned.

Yes! Where is Mr. Zhong? Why is he gone?

Well, everyone was fleeing in a hurry just now and no one noticed him.

"Shit, he must still be in the lab. You guys stay here, I'll go get him."

Cao Geng gave an order and was about to rush out.

"don't want……"

Zhou Xueman held his arm tightly and refused to give in.

Cao Geng looked back and shouted, "Sister Xiaoman, why are you holding me? Let go, I want to save Mr. Zhong."

The deputy director immediately shouted, "Come quickly, help me stop him."

Duan Peng and several soldiers hurried forward and blocked Cao Geng's way.

When Cao Geng saw this, he realized that he could not leave and could not help but sigh.

May the favor of Old Man Girion, the Clock of Time, be with him!

Although the old man of the Time Clock often opposes Cao Geng, he has no ill intentions deep in his heart.

He confronted Cao Geng not out of personal gain but out of an anxious desire to uncover the secret of the cure - penicillin.

now.

Zhong Wei was in a magic laboratory, standing in front of a lot of glassware, and the roar of the outside world seemed to be isolated from him.

Holding a magic straw, he sucked a small amount of penicillin from a cup and carefully poured it into the clean crystal cup in his left hand.

"Haha, Penicillin, it's you! Such pure quality, flawless! I, Zhong Wei, have been searching for you for two years, and now you appear before my eyes. I have waited for this moment for too long. Haha, it is destiny that I am able to witness your birth in my lifetime..."

Zhong Wei held those magical drugs in his hands, talking to himself, his eyes full of fanaticism.

At this moment, a star bomb fell from the sky and hit the laboratory directly.
