The Last Alchemist

After returning to the Prancing Pony Mansion, Rosen stayed in the alchemy room all night without stopping for a moment.

Early the next morning, Anne was awakened by a servant knocking on the door.

"What's the matter?" Annie asked in a daze. The warm quilt in winter was really comfortable. She always felt like she was back in the arms of her parents when she was a child.

The maid's voice came from outside the door: "Miss, Mr. Rosen asked you to go to the alchemy room to meet him."

"Oh, okay, I'll be there right away." Annie got her head out of bed, looked at the clock on the wall, and found that it was only half past five in the morning.

Before she was fully awake, she yawned, reluctantly got out of the soft and warm velvet quilt, and began to get dressed in a daze. As she was getting dressed, she suddenly felt a shock in her heart: "No, Rosen usually wakes up very often." It's late, he must have been up all night again! ’

Rosen worked hard all night, but she slept soundly all night. The bed was soft and warm. Just now, she even wanted to stay in bed and didn't want to get up. Compared to Rosen, Annie felt a sense of shame in her heart: 'Hey~ I am so greedy for enjoyment. Okay, we can’t do this again. ’

She was completely awake, quickly put on her clothes, and ran towards the alchemy room at the end of the corridor.

"Rosen, I'm here." Annie knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Anne pushed the door and walked in, and saw Rosen sitting lazily at a small table by the window. There was sumptuous food on the table, including refined white bread, a large pot of thick broth, a pot of delicate fruit plate, two roasted squabs, and two glasses of fragrant moonlight night red wine.

With the price of goods in Nerogard City, this table of food would not cost you even a single gold dragon coin.

Seeing Annie, Rosen smiled and extended his hand to invite: "Come, I'm waiting for you to eat together."

After saying that, he waved his hand, and a cup of light salt water flew from the side into Annie's hand: "Swish it, I specially asked the servant to add some dried mint leaves to the salt water. After gargling, your breath will be fresh."

Seeing Rosen's appearance as a prodigal young master, Anne's guilt immediately disappeared. She sat across from the small table and said, "Rosen, you are always so extravagant. This is even more exquisite than the king's breakfast. "

In terms of enjoyment, Anne felt that she was a little behind Rosen. This son of a knight was very good at making money, but he was also very good at spending money. He could always come up with all kinds of weird ways to spend money.

Rosen laughed, picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "Look out the window, the warm sun is rising, and everything is slowly waking up. If you don't eat more exquisitely, how can you live up to the good time given by God?"

"You are always reasonable." Anne shrugged, sitting across from Rosen and enjoying a delicious breakfast together.

Although she felt that Rosen's life was luxurious and she was not used to it at first, but after a while, after Anne got used to it, she couldn't help but fall in love with such an exquisite life.

At this time, if she was allowed to sleep in the wilderness all day long and live a miserable life like before, she would really not be able to adapt.

It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

After tearing a piece of fine white bread, chewing it gently and savoring the delicate and sweet texture, Anne felt that she could no longer eat coarse bread mixed with stones and human hair.

"Rosen, let me come here early in the morning. Do you have any instructions?" Annie took a sip from her wine glass, with a trace of morning laziness in her expression.

Anne looks like this now, with red lips, jade face, and red wine perfectly blended together, making her full of femininity. Rosen took one look and felt his heartbeat speed up. He quickly turned his gaze and pointed to the alchemy table aside: "What is that?"

Annie turned around and saw two things on the table. One was a rectangular wooden box about one meter long, and the other was a leather box.

"A wooden box? A suitcase?"

"Open it and take a look. This is a good thing I specially prepared for sneaking into the Blue Moon Mansion." Rosen squinted his eyes and leaned lazily on the back of the chair, with one hand on the armrest and the other hand holding a crystal clear wine glass. Shake gently.

"Look at your proud demo~"

Annie glanced sideways at Rosen, unable to restrain her curiosity, and walked to the long table, looking between the wooden box and the suitcase: "Which one should I look at first?"

"How about opening the wooden box first?" Rosen suggested.

Annie looked at the wooden box and found two matte metal buttons on the side. She looked at it for a while and found that it was a metal buckle commonly used by Rosen. The design was very delicate. If the method was not correct, it would be extremely difficult to open it, but it was no problem for Annie.

She exerted a little force, and there was a crisp 'click' sound. Another button popped open slightly, and the lid of the wooden box also popped open a crack. When she opened the lid, what she saw was a metal tube shining with a faint blue luster. It was very Thick and very precise.

‘Ahh~’

Anne recognized the metal pipe at a glance: "Isn't this the musket barrel used in our secret weapon?"

"Yes and no."

"How to say?"

Rosen explained: "I slightly changed the tube, shortened it a bit, and reduced the power of the bullet. Don't be disappointed. Take a closer look at the other parts."

Annie looked over as she was told and found that there were many more parts in the wooden box. Everything else was fine. What puzzled Annie the most was that there was an extra long-tube telescope in the box. Although the telescope was very compact in design, its appearance There are some more weird parts, but the lenses on both ends reveal its function.

"Why are you equipping a musket with a telescope?" Annie picked up the telescope and looked at it. She found that although the telescope was small, it was surprisingly powerful and had a very clear field of view. What's even more peculiar is that there is a cross mark in the center of the field of vision, and there are lines above, below, left, and right of the cross mark.

Rosen did not explain. He moved his mind slightly and activated the power of alchemy. All the parts in the wooden box were suspended, and then he began to assemble them in the air one by one. After about a minute, a handful of lengths appeared in the air. 1.25 meters, a large-caliber sniper rifle equipped with a precision scope.

"This is..." Anne had vaguely guessed the function of the telescope.

Rosen took a sip of red wine: "This gun is called the Finger of Death. It has a maximum range of 3 kilometers and an optimal accurate range of one thousand meters. Within a distance of 800 meters and the wind speed does not exceed 10 meters per second, as long as it is used correctly, , it can guarantee a perfect hit, and the error will not exceed 1 centimeter. If you use a special high-power bullet, you can still kill the ghoul lord."

Annie's eyes lit up when she heard this: "It's so powerful, how can it be used?"

Rosen pointed to the wooden box: "Look at the box, I wrote an instruction manual specifically for you. You can go back and study it slowly."

Anne turned around and looked, and sure enough, there was a small wooden trough on the right side of the wooden box, and there was a parchment scroll in the wooden trough. She was itching to see it, so she reached out to get it.

With a thought, Rosen closed the lid of the wooden box. Faced with Annie's doubtful gaze, he looked at the suitcase: "Don't you take a look at what's inside?"

"Oh~ I almost forgot about this good thing."

Annie walked to the suitcase, opened it, and found a gray-white dress inside. Compared with the tall and tall finger-of-death musket before, this dress was very inconspicuous. It even looked a bit like women's underwear on the market. picture.

"A piece of underwear? Why did you give me underwear?"

Annie's cheeks were slightly red, and she reached out to touch the hem of her clothes, and then realized something was wrong: "Wait, what is this made of?"

This dress looks like leather armor, but when you touch it, the surface is very smooth. If you touch it gently, the dress is very soft, just like satin. But with a little force, the dress also becomes flexible, as if it is resisting the power of your fingers. .

"It seems to be alive!" Anne exclaimed in surprise.

Rosen smiled and said nothing. With a thought, his clothes floated up in the air. Then he took out his meat grinder musket and fired a shot at the clothes.

"Bang~~Dang Dang Dang~"

A burst of gunfire was actually mixed with the strange sound of metal collision.

Anne looked at the dress again and found that the dress was intact, not even a mark was left.

"Hiss~~clothes that can't be broken by a musket?"

This subverted Anne's understanding of the power of muskets. Ever since she came into contact with the musket, this thing can destroy all targets and cause heavy damage to any monster. Even the thick-skinned giant ghoul lord was beaten to pieces by the powerful musket. Subconsciously, she I thought that muskets were indestructible, but I didn't expect that such a strange piece of clothing that went against common sense would appear.

Rosen laughed: "Not only can't be broken by muskets, but also can't be pierced or cut by swords. The sharp claws of ordinary monsters can also be completely ignored."

Anne's mouth opened slightly when she heard it, and she was stunned. This time, Rosen gave her a really big surprise. She had never even imagined such armor before.

Rosen stood up and handed the clothes to Annie: "Put it on. This clothes is very light, breathable, and easy to clean. It can be cleaned by just rinsing it with water. It can be worn as underwear."

Annie took the clothes mechanically, but still didn't understand: "How can there be light and strong armor in the world? This goes against common sense."

Seeing her confused look, Rosen couldn't help but reach out and pat Annie's hand: "Haha, do you still remember the giant ghoul lord we killed?"

Annie came back to her senses: "You mean, this is made of the carapace of the ghoul lord? But why can't I smell the rotting smell of the ghoul?"

"Of course. I spent a lot of time on the carapace, not only removing the smell, but also slightly changing the structure to make it stronger. Even if I use this finger of death musket to shoot, although it cannot be completely Defend it, but it can also reduce the power by at least 90%.”

"Oh~ But there is only one piece. Why don't you wear it? You need it more than me." Annie looked at Rosen seriously.

Rosen blinked and pulled his collar: "Look, I've already put it on. The same style."

Annie was relieved: "Okay. Then I'll put it on."

"No need to go back to the room, just change here. I won't peek." Rosen turned around.

Annie thought for a moment, then walked to the corner of the alchemy room with her clothes. After a rustling, she walked out again. She didn't know why, but her cheeks were as red as apples.

"Does it fit?"

"It fits so well that it feels like you're not wearing any clothes." Anne nodded slightly, paused for a moment, then suddenly raised her head and stared at Rosen: "Did you peek at me changing clothes?!"

"Cough~~Cough~~" Rosen couldn't take a breath while he was drinking. He choked and coughed repeatedly. After a while, he said: "Of course not. I asked the washerwoman Lucy."

While speaking, Rosen glanced at Annie's chest without leaving any trace. From the outside, it looked like a B+ at most, but judging from the measurements Lucy told him, it was actually a C+, which was much more material than Rosen imagined.

"Oh~~" Anne's face became redder and she ate a piece of candied fruit silently, saying: "Have you thought of a plan for Earl Derek?"

Speaking of business, Rosen's heart trembled: "The specific plan has not been figured out yet. Let's discuss it carefully now."
