Chapter 245 An Su Is Here to Purchase Goods

The bright golden sunshine in the early morning covered the dome of the church. As the bell of the brass drum tower rang for the fourth time, candidates for priests by the Champs Lake began to enter the venue one after another. After showing the candidates' holy seal numbers, they followed The priest's guidance leads to different Naraku rooms in a given order.

In the church hall and the square outside the church, there are layers of magic screens that can show the performance of the saints in the room to the outside world in real time.

Not only the saints of the Seven Holy Sees, but ordinary citizens of Falore can also attend.

This not only demonstrates the Alchemy Holy See's principle of fair and open examinations, but also charges citizens ten gold coins for a viewing ticket.

Ten gold coins is not a small amount, it is equivalent to the monthly income of an average family. However, despite this, the supply of these gift tickets is still in short supply, and they are even sold at a high price of thirty or forty coins on the black market.

Many middle-class people who live a prosperous life are willing to spend money to watch the saints' exams and competitions. After all, in the secular world, the saints of the Holy See are both mysterious and sacred, and it is difficult for ordinary people to come into contact with them.

This grand event attracted the attention of the whole country. Some nobles even traveled thousands of miles from the border to the imperial capital to watch the ceremony. One can imagine the influence of this exam.

Coupled with the various gambling games in the tavern's black market, and the fact that the legendary third princess, Her Majesty Cersei Milton, the Daughter of the Golden Kite, will also attend this exam, the popularity has reached a fever pitch.

This is the most unique alchemy method of the Alchemy Holy See. It charges internal examination fees and external entrance fees. Just one Holy See exam can revitalize the economy and produce many gold coins.

On the top floor of the Third Church, Bishop Morgan looked down with satisfaction at the crowds of people in the square and the young man who was queuing up to enter. He showed a charming smile. The sun's fire floated gently, symbolizing her happy mood, and suddenly Those flames suddenly became indifferent as if they felt something.

"Old virgin." She didn't know who she was talking to. "Now that you're here, don't hide."

Behind Bishop Morgan, dots of pure white light slowly converged, forming a swaying pure white figure.

"I'm not a virgin." Merlin's consciousness projection appeared behind Morgan, and he asked with a stern face, "How much money have you made from the saints in my name?"

Although the seven Holy Sees belong to the same lineage, they are all in a competitive relationship. Especially during this promotion examination, the deacons can choose their faith again, so this is the period when the competition among the Seven Holy Sees is most intense.

Merlin already knew that Bishop Morgan was trying to poach Anzu away. As a bishop of the Glory Holy See, he naturally could not tolerate such poaching behavior.

"I've heard what you did yesterday."

Merlin stared at Bishop Morgan's back coldly, "Morgan Reinhardt, I'm warning you, you can't touch those children. They are all saints in the Glorious Holy See, whether they are Anzu or others. , As long as I, Merlin, am still here, you cannot exploit the saints in the Glory Holy See, because they are all my students!"

"You get 40% of the money you make." Morgan nodded readily.

"Very good." Merlin nodded happily, "This is Ansu's contact information. This boy will be yours from now on."

What a double blessing today.

After discussing the most important things, Merlin's consciousness floated in front of the window lattice, overlooking the rows of saints in the hall. At this time, the third princess also entered the hall in a carriage, and the silly boy Ansu followed happily. Cersei discusses outrageous 'whoever loses gets to be the son' bet

Merlin looked at it for a long time, then said to Morgan without raising his head,

"Who do you want to win?"

"I hope this kid Ansu loses." Morgan also looked down and said with interest.

"Why?" Merlin turned around and asked Morgan curiously. He found this very contradictory.

Logically speaking, this woman Morgan likes good-looking children.

"Because it looks good when a child cries."

Bishop Morgan held his cheek and said seriously,

"It's not that I'm a copper smelter, I just feel that a child's most sincere emotions are when he cries. Just think about it, those crystal tears overflowed from the blue eyes, passing over the white skin. I don’t like this kind of thing, I just think pitiful children are more beautiful, so I want to hold them in my arms. Of course, I am not a copper refiner.”

abnormal.

"." Merlin suddenly felt that selling Ansu to the Alchemy Holy See was a bit too much.

It felt like if he really entered the Alchemy Church, he would be abused every day.

You must know that Bishop Morgan's birth level is the most terrifying in their generation.

When Merlin was thirty years old,

At that time, he had just come out of seclusion, had mastered magic, had just begun to fall in love, was charming and charming, and was the most popular romantic figure among girls in the entire Holy See.

——Then I met this woman who was short of alchemy materials.

It's just missing thirty years old.

From then on, Merlin had a psychological shadow on women.

"And this kid is actually not very lucky."

Bishop Morgan said with a hint of helplessness, "The first room he drew happened to be the alchemy room I designed. Whether he can pass the test or not depends on how smart this kid is."

"Looking at the little princess, she should be able to pass it easily."

Merlin frowned at the alchemy room designed by Bishop Morgan, and Anzu's luck was indeed very bad.

After all, it was designed by Morgan, and its difficulty is one of the best among the seven rooms, and Ansu, the boy, has not been able to show any special alchemy talent so far.

When he thought that Anzu might wander around and end up becoming this woman's plaything, Merlin felt worried and regretted that he was so angry at the beginning. He felt extremely regretful and self-blame in his heart. If he had known this, he shouldn't have done that. If he had known this -

When Ansu loses, he presses more money.

"How about we also make a bet?" Bishop Morgan asked funnyly when he saw Merlin's appearance.

"What are the chips? Whoever loses gets the son?" Merlin responded reflexively.

"Are you men so naive?" Bishop Morgan was speechless.

"Then what do you want to bet on?" Merlin asked.

"I bet you have hundreds of years of alchemical materials now." Bishop Morgan said with a smile, "I just want to upgrade my angel summoning circle to the final version."

"Are all you women bowing their heads like this?" Merlin was shocked.

"All in all, let's wait and see."

Bishop Morgan rolled her eyes. She clapped her hands gently to signal the start of the exam. The sacred and ancient voice echoed in the hall and spread far away through the magic radio.

"The test has officially begun. Please leave the staff or weapons you carry with you to the priest for safekeeping. Please enter the first room."

After Bishop Morgan said these words, before the saints could react, they suddenly felt that the world was spinning. Every glass window in the dome was filled with grand and vast sunlight. The overwhelming light enveloped them. The magic instruments gently Tremor.

Ansu felt his eyes go blank. When he woke up again, he found that he was above the vast starry sky, and the bright light was slowly rotating from the sky.

In front of Ansu, a mechanical door stood. The machinery and gears were integrated into the door. The cold steel breath hit his face, and the holy mark symbolizing the Alchemy Holy See was engraved on the door.

Artificial Naraku world.

The first time Ansu saw this door, he determined what it was, and couldn't help but sigh at the generosity of the Alchemy Holy See.

It turned out that they were going to conduct assessments in these rooms.

The real Naraku world is a world fragment of a branch of parallel history. Each piece represents a destruction event that once existed. The artificial Naraku is artificially created through alchemy and under the research leadership of the Astral Holy See. A virtual event modeled after Naraku.

[Candidate detected: Ansu Morningstad (16), test number 16, test subject: Practical Application of the Seven Faiths]

[Carry a spiritual pet: Luo Xiaohei, which is a compliant ordinary contract pet, has registered its identity, and paid compliance fees. 】

[Error, error, it is prohibited to bring it into the examination room]

A cold voice sounded in his ears, and Luo Xiaohei, who was lying on Ansu's shoulder, stopped immediately. As a dignified Saint of Chaos, it was nothing more than being treated as a pet. Why was she still not allowed to take the exam?

Ansu also frowned. He had already paid the money anyway. Could it be that the program identified Elf's true identity? Or there was a deeper reason.

"Why not let her in?" Ansu asked.

[The examination room is a public area]

The mechanical voice replied, the voice was ethereal and familiar, it should be imitating the timbre of the astral messenger.

[In public places, pets need to be on a leash to avoid transmitting rabies virus]

"." Ansu and Luo Xiaohei were silent at the same time.

Only you and him have rabies, and only you and him have rabies. Luo Xiaohei bared her teeth and roared at the door, her whole body was hairy. If Ansu hadn't stopped her with one hand, she would have almost demolished the door.

"Don't be like everyone else."

After tying a rope on the hopeless Luo Xiaohei, Ansu finally passed the room review.

[Identity verified]

【Please enter the room】

Ansu pressed his hand on the metal handle, opened the door, and walked in. His eyes were dark at first, and then the light gradually brightened, and the bright candlelight swayed in the room.

This is a room that resembles a medieval aristocratic castle. Scarlet carpets are spread flat on the floor. The flickering candlelight distorts the shadows of the stone pillars into elongated ghosts. In the middle of the room, there is a thirty-foot long mahogany table that is luxurious and luxurious. , a table carving of a ferocious ghost is painted with red paint, and a series of materials are placed on the table.

Ansu has studied this artistic style and initially judged that this should be a work from the middle to late third era.

When entering a strange world, you must first understand the current situation in the shortest possible time.

"Judging from the style of the table, this simulated event should have occurred in the late Chaotic Era, which should be between 31,000 and 32,200 years ago."

Ansu showed the professionalism of a top connoisseur. He carefully touched the texture of the tabletop with his hand, knocked on the tabletop again, and frowned.

"The pattern of this red table is called the 'Scarlet Group of Ghosts Eating Picture'. It was the work of Master Youda of the Chaos Kingdom thirty thousand years ago. Master Youda's works that remain in the modern world are quite rare. These mahogany trees were invaded with the blood of evil spirits. Made by dyeing heavy wood, it can last for tens of thousands of years, and this craft was lost just 30,000 years ago.”

"And according to my analysis, this should be a vampire's room." Ansu said professionally.

"Meow?"

Elf turned around and looked at Ansu with a new look. She didn't expect Ansu to have such a profound study of art and to talk so eloquently, like a top connoisseur. She meowed at Ansu several times and asked him how he did it.

He even knew the art style of 30,000 years ago and even guessed the race of the owner of the room.

Bishop Morgan nodded gently. Ansu might really have a talent for alchemy. Children who are generally sensitive to art are suitable for the Alchemy Church.

The invigilators who were watching from the outside also showed an interested look.

"Meow? (How do you know so much)"

"Because my father has an identical table in his study." Ansu said calmly, "He always brags about this. I've heard it so many times, so I wrote it down."

"." Everyone inside and outside the venue fell into silence.

"Meow, meow. (The owner of this room is a vampire. How did you infer that?)"

"Because my father is also a vampire." Ansu said seriously, "Only vampires who suck human blood can use such an expensive table."

"Meow. (You are so filial)"

After roughly establishing the age, Ansu moved his eyes and looked at other objects in the room.

Judging from the visual, this room is about four or five hundred square meters. In addition to the long table placed in the center, there are no extra objects. The only thing that surprised Ansu was that the door of this room was densely wrapped with holy cloth. He heard the sound of something dripping. Looking carefully, he found that blood was seeping out through the door.

The gloomy and evil breath suddenly spread, carrying a strong smell of blood.

The shadow of some creature was swaying outside the door.

At the same time, information about this artificial world also appeared in front of Ansu,

[Artificial Naraku World: Night of the Vampire Castle]

[Rank: Level 3~Level 4]

[World Background: At the end of the Chaos Era, the prosperity of the Chaos Kingdom was approaching its peak, but at the same time, this was also the most divided and turbulent era of the Chaos Kingdom. The Chaos Doctrine tolerated all living creatures, and various evil races of non-human races also poured into the upper class of the kingdom. The vampire nobles who could not be killed by ordinary weapons were one of the ruling class. 】

【At this time, the Alchemy Church had not yet been born, and the alchemy technology was quite backward. Human alchemists were enslaved by the blood clan, but the warlocks were preparing a plan for resistance. You tried to research a holy weapon that could kill vampires】

【Task introduction: You are the only surviving warlock of the Alchemy Sect. Your plan has been leaked, and your companions have been slaughtered by the blood servants. The only thing you can do is to make a holy tool that can restrain the vampire nobles according to the alchemy drawings left by your companions before the seal of the gate is broken - the Redemption Sacred Blade】

【Remaining time of the seal: 30 minutes】

【Room Task 1: All your medium and high magics have been disabled. Please Before the door seal is broken, refine a weapon that can restrain vampires]

[Room Task 2: Kill the blood servant outside the door]

[Task Note: All the materials you need are placed on the long table, and you can use them at will]

[If the candidate dies or fails to complete the task within the specified time, the test is over and you cannot enter the next room]

After entering the room, Ansu can feel the changes in his body. All his combat magic is banned. Only some useless and lowest-level magic can be used. The rank of his body is also rapidly declining and fixed at the third rank. Even his proud mental power is also restricted.

With the current strength, it is impossible to kill the third-rank blood outside the door without restraining weapons.

Ansu clarified the situation. At this moment, the door suddenly shook violently. The whole hall was shaking violently. A bloody hand blatantly penetrated the holy cloth, and broken wood chips and blood-stained white cloth fell to the ground.

[Remaining time for the seal: 29 minutes]

Time is quite tight.

In just half an hour, a holy weapon that can restrain the vampires must be forged.

This difficulty is difficult for laymen who have never been exposed to alchemy, even the priests in the alchemy church, not to mention it, to do it in such a short time.

He frowned slightly, ignored the vampires outside the door, and moved his eyes to the long mahogany table, carefully looking at what precious materials were prepared on it.

The alchemy drawings developed by the alchemists were placed in front of him. The production drawings of the Redemption Long Blade were roughly written, but many key points were still left blank, and many materials could not be used. It seems that the candidates need to fill in the blanks and complete this drawing.

Other ordinary saints who entered this room began to scratch their heads and complete this alchemy drawing.

"Okay."

An Su also rolled up his sleeves and showed a calm smile, "Start deleting the drawings."

The more drawings are deleted, the more materials are left, and the more An Su can embezzle.

He is not here to take the exam, he is here to purchase goods!
