Beasts contend

Morning dawn.

The Festival of Beasts seems to have gone far away from Fan Dong.

Of course, there are still advantages, at least the college announced the suspension of classes, so Fan Dong can go out for a walk in a fair and honest manner.

Fan Dong spent a few days setting up the medicine hall, preparing to advertise on the closing day of the Hundred Beasts Festival.Since he was going to publish some basic medical books, he naturally had to collect a large number of clinical samples. After the pharmacy became famous, he could see all kinds of patients.For ordinary people, he sells them some off-the-shelf medicines like everyone else; when he encounters difficult and miscellaneous diseases, he will come out to see the doctor himself, and then sell them some "off-the-shelf medicines".

As long as it is not too outrageous, it should not attract the attention of the headquarters.

Before that, he had to go to the branch of the Alchemist Guild in the Ryan Empire to find out.Anyway, he has already made a splash at the Festival of Beasts, and if he reveals the fact that he is a pharmacist, you shouldn't be too surprised, right?

Fan Dong made up his mind and slipped to Duke Hoberg's mansion early.Duke Hoborg was sleeping, snoring loudly, and no one dared to go forward. The servants all said that Duke Hoborg got up very angry, and he would be very angry if he woke him up.

Fan Dong was confident: "Uncle will not be angry with me." He tiptoed into Duke Hoborg's room, quietly stretched out his hand, and pinched Duke Hoborg's snoring nose forcefully.

Duke Hoborg's snoring stopped suddenly.

Duke Hoborg waved his hands violently and kicked a foot violently at the same time.When he opened his eyes and saw Fan Dong's smiling face, his movements froze in place again. After a while, he suppressed all the irritability of just waking up, stretched out his hand and picked up Fan Dong, who was still like a boy, with all his strength. Into his arms: "Little Colin, you are getting more and more naughty."

Fan Dong said, "Because my uncle loves me."

Duke Hoberg heard the sincere trust in Fan Dong's words, and his heart was very warm.This is the uncle nephew, he only dared to greet him cautiously, and only stared at the military power in his hand, how could he look like his nephew.

Duke Hoborg kissed Fan Dong on the cheek and pricked him with his messy beard.

Fan Dong pushed him away in disgust: "It's dirty and smelly, go wash your face and brush your teeth first!"

Duke Hoborg laughed.

He noticed that Fan Dong was wearing civilian clothes, so he turned to wash without asking any further questions.After a while, he also changed into civilian clothes and came out. The fabric was rough and the workmanship was simple. It really looked like that.

Fan Dong was in high spirits: "Uncle, do you often go out like this?"

Duke Hoborg looked nostalgic: "Yes, we often went out like this back then. Me, your mother, your Aunt Dinah, and occasionally met Edward's father, the wolf cub." His Majesty the King was directly ignored by him. Without mentioning, "Colin, do you like it too? Do you have a buddy you hang out with?"

Fan Dong nodded: "Yes, of course." He counted for Duke Hoborg with his fingers, "Dia and David can go out with me like this, but Ah Ming, Kathy, and Arthur can't, they She is so good-looking that people will stare at her no matter what she wears."

Duke Hoberg laughed and looked at Fan Dong meaningfully.

Even though he was dressed as a commoner, Fan Dong's aura of being pampered since he was a child still hasn't disappeared, not to mention his appearance that looks more like his mother as he grows up.In a few years, he might look even better than Kathy John, whom Emperor Tiger had boasted about.Fortunately, he is evasive by nature, and all others see at a glance are his shining eyes. Few people will stare at his face fiercely, and there should not be too many people who covet him.

What's more, he is still the little prince of the Ryan Empire—except for that little wolf cub, Edward, who would dare to think of him!

Thinking of Edward, Duke Hoborg had another snack.

Obviously Edward's father is so upright, and Mrs. Dinah is so gentle, how could such a shameless thing be born?Feeling the aura similar to the imprint of spiritual power on Fan Dong's body, Duke Hoberg wished he could go straight to the military headquarters and tear Edward apart.His little nephew is still so young!

Duke Hoberg said: "I haven't been to the capital for many years, you have to show me around."

Fan Dong said: "I just want to take you to a delicious breakfast, Uncle." He smiled, "That place is quite interesting."

Duke Hoberg followed Fan Dong all the way, turning left and right, and finally came to the "village in the city" near the outskirts.This area is a slum area, and most of the houses are low and dilapidated.The breakfast stall Fan Dong mentioned was at the corner, and there were only a few simple broken wooden tables and chairs. The stove was built on a cart, and a strong fire was burning on it.Red flames sprang up high, licking the red-hot iron pan one after another.

Fan Dong was also introduced by Grandpa Arthur. Seeing the woman behind the stove busy, he asked familiarly, "Sister-in-law, what egg did Little Vader get today?"

The woman whom Fan Dong called "sister-in-law" paused slightly when she heard his voice, but she didn't respond with the same enthusiasm as usual.

Fan Dong was slightly surprised, and was about to ask again, when a hearty youthful voice came out from the side: "Brother Fan Dong, I touched a tea bird egg today, the tea bird feeds on tea fruit, and the egg contains tea fruit. It tastes delicious." He handed the tea bird eggs to his mother, "Mom, make it for brother Fan Dong, brother Fan Dong even brought someone over to make two servings!"

Fan Dong smiled and looked at the energetic young man.This young man was named Wade, he was twelve or thirteen years old, his face was healthy and ruddy, and he was clearly a young fellow full of vitality.He pulled Duke Holberg to sit down and introduced to Duke Holberg: "Uncle, there is a special feature here, that is, what you can eat every day depends on what eggs you touch Vader on the farm. There is a haystack on the farm, which attracts Many birds laid eggs there, and Vader would go there every day to take out the unfertilized eggs—that is, the eggs that couldn’t turn into little birds, and bring them back to cook noodles.”

Duke Hoborg glanced at Vader and boasted, "He has a good physique."

Vader was a little shy, stepped forward to fill Fan Dong and Duke Hoborg with water, pulled up a low stool and sat on the side weaving the reins.All around him are the tail hairs of the horses he collected, which is the raw material for the reins.His daily job is to feed the horses on the farm and then groom the horses. He communicates well with the horses.The farmers liked him very much, and they all wanted to hire him to raise horses. In the end, he chose the owner who was very lenient and allowed him to touch the bird eggs. He also promised to sell him the best horse after he saved enough money. .

Wade bowed his head and weaved for a while, but still couldn't help sharing his joy with Fan Dong: "Brother Fan Dong, let me tell you, I can buy my beloved horse after I work for another month! It has a long mane , as fluffy and beautiful as the hair of a goddess, and its four hooves are so powerful that they can push all obstacles away, and I can't sleep at the thought that it will be my horse in a moment!"

The woman couldn't help but stop: "Wade, you have to talk about this all day..."

Fan Dong smiled and said, "It's great that Vader is like this." When talking about something he likes, his whole face glows with sincere joy, which makes people happy just looking at it.

The woman stopped talking.

Fan Dong asked Wade, "What are you doing?"

Wade said: "I'm braiding the reins. Brother Fan Dong, do you think I'm braiding beautifully? The owner of our farm is really very tolerant. He allowed me to collect the tail hairs of the horses that the horses dropped, and wait for me to buy them." When I get my horse, I'll put the bridle on in no time. I've also collected old saddles, bits and shoes, and I'll be able to ride then!" Vader's eyes brightened as he spoke.

Fan Dong likes such a young man, he feels full of vitality and hope.

Fan Dong said, "Then you must show me then."

Vader said: "Of course!" After speaking, he lowered his head intently and continued to weave the reins with the long tail hair.

The woman quickly brought up the noodles. In the big noodle bowl, there were a few fried tea bird eggs, sprinkled with a handful of tender green onions, and the smell was overflowing.

Duke Hoborg boasted again: "My lady is very skilled."

The woman was a little embarrassed, smiled awkwardly, and went back to the stove to get busy.

Fan Dong and Duke Hoberg had a big appetite, and quickly finished the noodles and eggs.At this time, the boy had already put down the half-braided reins in his hands, and was helping the woman pack her things with a smile.Fan Dong said, "Let's go first!"

The young man said goodbye to him warmly: "Brother Fan Dong, goodbye!"

When Fan Dong and Duke Hoborg left, the boy hummed a song and went to clean up the dishes on the table.Seeing that his footsteps were as brisk as ever, the woman couldn't help pulling him behind the stove, and asked seriously, "Wade, do you know who that person was just now?"

Vader said: "You know, didn't we all see it on the opening day of the Festival of Beasts? They are His Royal Highness Colin and Duke Hoborg!" His face was full of admiration, "They are all very powerful people! Then A powerful person is still so kind to us, of course we have to be more enthusiastic than before. His Highness Colin is willing to let me call him 'brother', and I will call him until he stops calling me!"

The woman froze.What my son said seems to make sense...

Vader said: "When we didn't know the identity of His Royal Highness Colin, His Highness Colin was also His Highness Colin, so we just need to be the same as before." His eyes became brighter, "I want to practice horse riding, I will become a knight for His Highness Colin in the future! Mom, His Highness Colin is really amazing..."

The woman smiled: "Then you have to work harder."

Vader nodded vigorously.

Similar conversations have taken place in many places these days.

Even though more powerful figures will appear at the Festival of Beasts in the next few days, the most discussed topic is still the reappearance of Zhu Yong's power on the opening day.

Such a picture is so shocking that no one can take it out of memory!

"His Royal Highness Colin" has also become the most widely mentioned title among many teenagers.

In just a few days, Colin Lane's reputation has been completely reversed.

Fan Dong didn't mind this little thing.He took Duke Hoborg to relax on the embankment, and chatted with him about how to deal with the guild.

Duke Hoberg has a lot of experience and introduced the specific situation to Fan Dong in detail.

The major guilds are actually similar, but the most special thing about the alchemist guild is not only that there are no alchemists in the guild to support them, but there are not a few alchemists who can serve as the guild's service objects in the whole country.If a pharmacist appears under such circumstances, the guild of pharmacists will definitely treat him as a treasure!

However, this privilege comes at a price.After you enjoy the treatment of the stars and the moon in the Alchemist Guild, you have to do something for the Alchemist Guild, such as going to the competition to show your face, and come back with a few awards to win glory for the branch.

Duke Hoberg taught Fan Dong how to play a rogue: "When the time comes, just say you're still young."

Fan Dong understood very well and nodded repeatedly.

Duke Hoborg revealed all the key figures of the Alchemist Guild again.

If he wanted to join the guild in the royal capital, the first thing he would have to face was an old man with a strange temper, Xia Zuo.There is something special about Xia Zuota being able to sit in the Alchemists Guild: he lived a long time.

Originally, their family also had a pharmacist, and the pharmacist of their family was selected by the higher authorities as the president of the pharmacist guild. Unexpectedly, after a period of time, the pharmacist of their family died unexpectedly. What happened in the next few decades It is very bizarre: those who have the right to participate in the competition within their family fight to the death, and in the end they all die.

After fighting to such an extent, Xia Zuo's family was naturally unwilling to give up their position, so they pushed out Xia Zuo, who had always been regarded as a waste.

Although Xia Zuo doesn't have much ability, he has lived for 80 years, so the qualifications are always enough.

So Xia Zuo took the position of president of the Lion Empire Branch of the Alchemist Guild amid everyone's astonishment.

This sitting is another few decades.

Xia Zuo is 150 years old this year, and he is still stubbornly alive. Even the Presbyterian Council has nothing to do with the empty alchemist guild.

Duke Hoberg was also a man of the empire, and he knew some inside stories very well.He warned Fan Dong: "I always feel that Xia Zuo has deep hostility towards alchemists, you'd better be careful."

Fan Dong nodded.There are very few such things as "coincidences" in the world, and Xia Zuo's position as president is definitely not by chance.Just because Xia Zuo has been sitting in that position for decades, one can know that Xia Zuo is definitely not a simple person!

Fan Dong and Duke Hoborg parted ways and transferred to the Alchemists Guild.

The location of the Alchemist Guild is relatively remote, and there are not many people coming and going in front of the door.Fan Dong walked through the quiet street and stepped up the bluestone-paved steps.There was no one guarding the gate, so he walked in directly, passing through the garden full of medicinal herbs to see the main hall of the guild.The turquoise flag flutters in the wind, while a turquoise bird naps on it.When Fan Dong entered the main hall, the emerald blue bird opened its mouth: "There is someone, there is someone!"

Hearing the sound of birds, two "staff" walked out of the side door leading to the inner courtyard, and asked in a business-like manner, "What are you doing here?" What's going on here.

Fan Dong blinked and asked naively: "I want to become a pharmacist, what should I do?"

The staff member suddenly regained his energy, glanced at him up and down, shook his head and said, "No, it's very difficult for you. You must know that refining medicine costs a lot of money, and there is no way to learn common people's language. And , refining medicine depends on talent, ordinary people can't learn it..."

Fan Dong let out an "oh" and asked again: "Then how can I know my talent?"

The two staff members looked at each other.Although Fan Dong was dressed as a commoner, he kept himself clean and looked very pleasing.Anyway, they have nothing to do, and it's nothing to coax the children.One of them said: "If you really want to know, you can come with us and we will test your talents for you."

Fan Dong nodded like pounding garlic.

Two staff members led Fan Dong into the testing room.

It was a relatively airtight space with a suspended crystal ball in the middle.Fan Dong's eyes lit up, this is the legendary pretentious weapon!As long as the protagonist touches it lightly, this thing will not be able to withstand such an awesome talent, it will produce cracks, and then shatter into petals with a crash!

So pitiful, so pitiful.

Fan Dong ran up and stroked the crystal ball lovingly.

staff member:"……"

Sure enough, he is a commoner boy who has never seen anything in the world?

Just when they were about to briefly introduce the test method to Fan Dong, one of the staff members opened his eyes wide: "Look, look, the crystal ball is lit!"

Another person jumped up: "It's really bright!" Just touching it lightly, the crystal ball emits such a light-warm, pure, and lasting!

What does this mean?

It represents Fan Dong's talent for refining medicine is very high!

Both staff members froze.

The older one said: "You stay here first, I'll go find the president!"

The young one went up to meet him and said to Fan Dong, "Mr. Xiao, you can try to inject a little spiritual power into it."

Fan Dong said "Oh" and did as he was told.He loves the crystal ball very much, and what he inputs is the ice-type mental power that is still the most used.The light from the crystal ball gradually infused into the blue, as if a deep blue flame had been ignited.

Fan Dong was amazed: "It's amazing, it can change color!"

The young staff breathed a sigh of relief.It's okay, at least this guy's mental strength is not high, otherwise it would be really scary.Suddenly, a pharmacist seedling with strong mental power and extremely high talent for refining medicine appeared, how scary!

The staff has listed Fan Dong as a key care object, and asked Fan Dong what he would like to drink, whether he should go to the side for a rest first, whether it is hot or not, should he turn on the air conditioner...

Fan Dong noticed a little weirdness from the warm-like attitude of the other party.

Neither Duke Hoberg nor Qiu Fengbai had undergone the current talent test, so they didn't know that this crystal ball was the latest "prop" of the Alchemist Guild.Generally speaking, the crystal ball will slowly light up only after the spiritual power has been injected into it—something like Fan Dong that lights up at the first touch is definitely a heresy!

Fan Dong didn't know what was going on, but he had vaguely guessed that something was wrong.

At this time, the voice of the older staff member came from outside the door: "President, he's inside." He said angrily, "He touched it as soon as he entered the testing room, and he didn't have time to ask him to register."

An old but powerful voice said, "I'll ask him to make up one later."

While talking, they have entered the testing room.

Fan Dong raised his eyes and met a pair of scrutinizing eagle eyes.
