From Prisoner to Si Chen

"'Blood Owl' Gilan Iros..."

"Okay." White Sage said on the other end of the phone. "Put 2 pfennigs into the alchemy array as a cost of production."

Ji Lan couldn't help but be a little surprised.

In his impression, the big guys like White Sage and even those in "Midnight Rose" are probably not short of money, not to mention these two silver coins?

As if knowing that Ji Lan would think so, another voice came from the phone:

"Exchange of equal value, young man, this is the truth that every alchemist will abide by."

"okay, I get it."

As Gilan said, he took out another 2 pfennills note and put it in the alchemy array.

With a swish, the banknote disappeared.

"Wait a moment." White Sage said again.

After a while.

In the center of the golden alchemy array on the wooden floor, an object suddenly appeared.

Gillan took a closer look.

It was a palm-sized palm-opening brown pickup truck.

He secretly sighed that the other party's efficiency in doing things was really fast.

Bending down to pick it up, he lowered his head and looked at it.

He discovered that in the center of the carbon fiber was a circular metal badge, which was the "X" logo symbolizing the Bremen Empire. It had a black background and white stripes.

Open the brown card book, with a photo space reserved in the middle, and more formal boldface letters below:

"Name: Gilan Iros."

"Position: Senior Prohibition Agent."

"Affiliated to: Balance Division-Prohibition Bureau."

Senior prohibition agent?

Ji Lan raised his eyebrows.

At the beginning of Lenovo's time travel, he was arrested as a gangster bootlegger and sentenced to death at the police station.

Now he has transformed into a prohibition agent...

Still high-end.

It must be said that life is always full of surprises.

Ji Lan played with the card, looked at the fine anti-counterfeiting lines on it, and secretly sighed at the other party's superb skills in forging documents.

As for the "balance department", he was a little unfamiliar with it and couldn't help but ask questions into the microphone.

White Sage explained the confusion:

"This department and the 'Purification Department' are both special departments of the empire. The functions of the two are similar. They are both responsible for executing some high-level laws and even handling difficult incidents related to mysteries."

"The difference is that they belong to different superiors and have completely different attitudes towards doing things."

"The 'Balance Department' is under the jurisdiction of the Logistics Department of the Imperial Administrative Center 'Sifang Palace', while the 'Purification Department' is under the Imperial Propaganda Department."

"The former has a milder attitude, or to put it worse, is loose. The latter is more radical, even rough. Therefore, in the empire, the latter appears far more often than the former, so that people in the empire have generally never heard of the 'Balance Department'. "

"This involves the internal power of the empire, the struggle between the 'Crow Faction' and the 'Hawk Faction', so I won't go into details with you... You just need to know that the subordinate department does exist on the identity certificate given to you."

After White Sage's patient answers, Ji Lan had a general understanding.

He played with the card, still a little worried.

"Although it is realistic, it is a forgery after all. If someone checks it out, wouldn't it be easy to reveal the secret? Presumably such positions, departments, and internal personnel information in the empire must be clearly registered..."

"Who told you it was a forgery?"

Sage Bai's slightly helpless voice came from the other end of the phone.

"This identity certificate has been registered. Even if someone checks it, they can still find the person 'Guilan Iros' in the internal files."

"It's legal, feel free to use it."

"?!"

Jilan's hand holding Caben paused.

Not fake, but real?

Who is the White Sage? How could he obtain a legal ID card as a "senior prohibition agent" in such a short period of time?

"Well, young man, I look forward to your performance."

The last word came from the other end of the phone, and with a soft click, there was a long silence.

Ji Lan knew that the other party had hung up the "alchemy hotline".

I looked down and saw that the mercury battery connected to the red wire of the microphone was completely exhausted at this moment.

The golden alchemy array inside the metal microphone and even on the wooden floor dimmed and finally disappeared.

Gillan took a deep breath.

He silently put away the alchemy hotline, four mercury batteries and the agent's ID card.

Then he sat on the edge of the bed.

"I finally bought a mercury battery..."

He said, and a big stone fell from his heart.

Only with a mercury battery can you watch real film. Even calls on the alchemy hotline also require the power supply of this restricted energy source.

This time I bought four pieces at once, so there will be no shortage in a short time.

"As for the main occult materials required for the 'wick potion', they have finally been found."

Gilan let out a sigh of relief and smiled.

If you want to climb the original level 2 as quickly as possible, you will need the assistance of magic potions.

Now I finally see a clear goal.

That is to complete the White Sage's assessment and become a member of "Midnight Rose".

Gillan glanced at the wall calendar.

Dawn 1926, Wednesday, July 28.

‘There is almost a week left until August 5th. ’

he thought.

‘Young Wand Master Competition? ’

Ji Lan raised his hand, and the ancient sheepskin scroll suddenly appeared in his palm.

The first chapter of "Gerald's Bloodletting Sword", "Stopping the Fight".

The rise of the cane technique is due to the arrival of the civilized era, which forced the use of canes to replace medieval swords.

It can be said that swordsmanship is the origin of cane art and its ancestor.

Although Gilan has never learned the cane technique, as long as he masters the secret sword technique pioneered by the leader of the "Healing Knights", even using a cane as a sword can still produce terrifying effects.

It can be called a dimensionality reduction attack.

'But before that, let's try to upgrade the "White Cross Body Training Technique" to the final stage. ’

Ji Lan secretly thought.

He has obtained the "secret skill" twice in a row.

Even if the "secret skill" comes again this time, don't be afraid, because you have enough secret points!

As he tried to recall the content of the exercise technique, the colorful number "275" in the corner of his vision flickered slightly.

But this time, there was no sudden sudden drop.

‘It seems that the only secret skills that can be learned by the third-stage “blood” are “blood bathing” and “skull melting”. ’

Jilan understood.

‘Then, it’s finally time to advance to the “black bile” stage! ’

Full of expectations, he took out Espy's secret notes from the dimensional space, turned to the end, and read carefully the content about the final stage of "black bile".

Not long after.

Gillan closed the note, walked to the open space next to the bed, and performed a series of difficult and weird postures that violated the human body structure, while controlling his breathing rate.

The fourth stage of practice is particularly difficult.

One of the movements requires Gillan to stand on one finger and hold the other hand 90 degrees perpendicular to the body. Then straighten your left leg, bend your right foot, and overlap it to form a cross.

With his current physical fitness, this is not a difficult task.

But the difficulty lies in the respiratory rate.

While maintaining this handstand, he also needs to breathe at a frequency of one fast and four slow, and continue to increase the number of inhalations.

Exhale briefly once and inhale slowly twelve times.

Over and over again, the cycle continues.

After doing this for nearly half an hour.

Ji Lan's face turned purple, and the veins on her forehead were exposed.

He felt his lungs filling with air, but he could only forcefully hold it in and not let it out.

His vision was black, with stars twinkling.

Some mysterious force began to work through his specific posture and breathing rate. Ji Lan suddenly heard the sound of waves in the darkness.

There was also a sound like a bird flapping its wings in the air.

Suddenly, he understood something.

The part improved by this exercise is his brain!

boom!

A roar that only he could hear rang in his mind.

Gilan's body, which was still upside down, fell to the ground with a thud.

He still lost his vision at this time, and everything he could see was pitch black.

At the same time, the waves jumping, bird feathers fluttering, and rumbling sounds intertwined in my mind, and the sounds became louder and noisier.

And he gradually found that his body began to become numb and stiff.

From the tips of the fingers, to the palms and soles, and then to the limbs, it spreads towards the trunk and head.

Jilan's thoughts were confused by the effects of this physical exercise, and he began to become hazy, and it took a long time for his thoughts to flash through him.

He knew that if he continued like this, his body would eventually be completely paralyzed due to the lack of assistance from the secret medicine. Even the brain will fall into endless silence.

Equivalent to a vegetative state.

'gorgeous! ’

He took advantage of another thought and immediately shouted inwardly.
