From Prisoner to Si Chen

"Did you hear that?" Flamel laughed. "This was all of his own free will."

"Besides, I didn't let him work in vain. I gave him some of the high-end snacks and supplies I brought from home."

The noble girl spread her hands.

"This is also Madam's teaching. As alchemist apprentices, we should strictly abide by the principle of 'equivalent exchange'."

"Sorry, dignity is priceless."

Gillan said calmly.

"Besides, your attitude makes me very unhappy."

After saying that, he turned around and left while carrying the firewood.

Flamel was startled.

Immediately, she showed annoyance, gritted her teeth, took two steps forward, chased after him, and said again:

"I'll exchange things for your alchemy array!"

"No need." Jilan said calmly without squinting.

"you……"

Lemeton felt aggrieved.

She had never felt so deflated by a commoner, especially a male commoner.

But unfortunately, the other person is also Mrs. McCarrah's apprentice, and is smarter and more knowledgeable than herself... This suppresses the strengths that she has been praised for since she was a child.

Flamel felt like he couldn't even raise his head in front of this blond young man.

The most important thing is that she can't beat the opponent.

After seeing how Gilan could easily kill a hare twenty meters away with a stone, Flamel had no idea of ​​using force to subdue this man.

Status, force, mind, understanding...

All of these things, what Flamel was proud of in the past, have all eclipsed Gilan.

"What would it take for you to be willing to teach me?"

Flamel gritted his teeth, stopped, and asked in a deep voice.

She has her own pride and does not want to be compared to a common man of the same age. Moreover, she does have a strong love and persistence for alchemy.

"Since you want to learn knowledge, you must have the attitude of an apprentice. If you put away that noble arrogance, rephrase your words, and ask me for advice, maybe I will teach you."

Gilan said calmly as he walked.

"Don't even think about it..."

Le Mei's expression changed, and he clenched his fists and said.

"How could I, the daughter of a noble earl, seek advice from a commoner, a man..."

But watching Jilan gradually walk away, her tone became weaker and weaker.

Le Mei clenched his teeth, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and finally stamped his feet and chased after him.

"Jilan, please teach me!" She took a deep breath and slowed down.

Ji Lan stared unmoved, unmoved.

LeMay's cheeks turned red and she lowered her tone again:

"Mr. Gillan, please teach me..."

Uh-huh.

Gilan stopped and turned to stare at the noble girl beside him.

Being stared at by him like this, Flamel couldn't help but take a step back and asked nervously:

"What...what?!"

"Actually, Miss Flamel is very well-educated and cute like this."

Gilan nodded and smiled seriously.

"Ah...ah?!"

Flamel's eyes widened and her cheeks turned red.

"Are you saying that I was uneducated and unlovable?!"

Soon, she returned to her original position and said with her hands on her hips.

Gilan shook his head and continued to walk away.

"Hey! Are you going to teach me or not?!"

When the noble girl saw this, she was a little angry and anxious.

"Let's talk about it when we get back." Jilan said calmly.

"You guy..."

Flamel muttered.

And Galken was carrying two bundles of firewood, panting and chasing after him, sweating profusely.

The three of them didn't go far before they all stopped.

Because on the forest path, a group of people appeared blocking the road.

"You three are Mrs. McCullar's apprentices, right? You don't look too good..."

The speaker was a woman dressed in luxurious clothes.

She has long curly brown hair and narrow eyes.

Around him, there were four young men, two men and two women, all of whom looked like nobles.

"Who are you?" Flamel asked with a frown.

"Haha, we are the apprentices of Mr. Boral Dupu, the 'Red Duke'..."

The curly-haired woman smiled.

"This time I came with the teacher to visit Mrs. McCalla. By the way, I took a look at what is so special about the apprentices of the great alchemist who is as famous as the teacher."

"Red Duke?" Flamel's pupils shrank.

Boral Dupu's reputation in the Kingdom of Sakya is also not low, and he is also a famous great alchemist. If he hadn't been a male, he would probably be above Ms. McCalla.

"What do you want to do?" she asked again.

"Let's discuss academics." The curly-haired woman smiled and took out a box and placed it on the ground. "I want to see what great knowledge you have learned from Mrs. McCullar."

"We have only studied with Madam for less than half a month, how can we compare with you?"

Flamel said unconvinced.

However, the curly-haired woman looked indifferent, shrugged, and replied:

"This is none of our business. Anyway, as long as you lose, the outside world will say that Mrs. McCullagh's alchemy level is not as good as our teacher."

"You are really despicable..."

Flamel gritted his teeth.

"I won't compete with you!"

With that said, she was about to leave in a detour, but was blocked by four other people.

The curly-haired woman kicked open the lid of the box, raised her hand and poured a bottle of green potion into it.

"Charlie, go!"

She called into the box.

Suddenly, a canine figure jumped out of the box and rushed toward Flamel.

Gillan took a closer look and realized that it was not a normal dog.

It is covered with seams all over, with black skin, brown skin, white and yellow skin, as if it is an assembled product with countless patches.

And the head is not a complete dog head, because except for the ears and nose, it is clearly the head of a lion!

The tail is not flesh and blood, but a soft metal whip with spikes, and a meteor hammer tied to the end!

"Ah!" Flamel screamed in fear when she saw this pieced together monster.

Seeing the monster open its mouth wide, revealing its ferocious fangs, it was about to throw her to the ground——

Bang! !

Just heard a muffled sound.

Flamel was shocked to see a figure flashing in front of him. The blond young man Jilan actually kicked the lion-headed monster away with a casual kick.

There was a crackling sound.

The monster rolled and dragged across the ground, kicking up dust.

After it was kicked, its body became detached, and pieces of skin peeled off and rolled out, exposing the muscles and bones inside.

"You...you kicked my Charlie off the line!"

The curly-haired woman glared and said angrily.

Gillan glanced at her.

"Since you want to compete, then let me try the results of these two days."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of parchment.

An extremely complex high-level alchemical formation was drawn on the paper using gold powder ink mixed with various materials.

Gillan tossed it away.

The parchment fell to the ground, suddenly blooming with a dazzling golden light.

Immediately, Gilan raised his hand slightly.

呲呲呲——

I saw that the ground actually started to squirm, and a bulge formed. Immediately afterwards, it spread to the palm of the blond young man at a speed visible to the naked eye, and condensed into a black "stick" made of ordinary soil that was highly concentrated.

“Decompose and reconstruct?”

The curly-haired woman saw this and sneered.

Several people around her also laughed.

"That's it? Your basic skills are just average, but you haven't even mastered the changes of matter and energy. Are you going to fight us with the 'mud stick' in your hand?"

"This is no ordinary 'mud stick'."

Gillan smiled.

"I used the alchemy formation to highly concentrate it. It's very heavy and very strong."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The curly-haired woman and her group burst into laughter.

A long-haired man next to him waved and said:

"Let's get our darlings out and play with this guy."

"good idea."

"Don't kill him, otherwise it will be difficult for the teacher to explain."

"What are you afraid of? Your skills are inferior to others, and you deserve to suffer..."

While they were talking, the group of people raised their hands and spilled some green liquid, throwing it towards the box.

The next second, four strange figures emerged from the box one after another.

It was clearly a monster made up of various animals.

There are monsters that look like kangaroos but have the arms of a gorilla, pythons with long legs, and giant crabs carrying turtle shells.

These monsters swarmed up and rushed towards the blond young man.

"Gilan, be careful!" Lemei's face turned pale and she reminded her kindly.

And Galken hid behind a tree, shivering, with fear in his eyes.

But the next second, all the people present were stunned.

I saw the blond young man stepping forward, waving the "clay stick" in his hand, and letting out a scream.

puff! !

With one blow of the stick, the python was smashed into two pieces, and its flesh and blood flew everywhere.

puff! !

He turned around and took steps, the black stick swept across the blurred image. Another stick smashed the turtle's shell into pieces, and the crab was directly smashed into pieces.

puff! !

puff! ! !

Gilan can defeat these patchwork monsters with just one stick.

In just a few seconds, nothing but debris was left.

"Ouch!"

Another roar like a dog or a lion came from behind, and the monster named Charlie swooped towards him.

But the blond young man didn't even look back. He raised his hand and reached out like lightning, pinched his neck with precision, and lifted him up in the air.

"It's a very interesting alchemy. You can piece together the parts of various creatures and make them move normally... This is a novel idea."

Jilan grabbed the lion-headed monster in his hand, looked at it with a normal expression, and said calmly.

"I'll take this thing away and go back and study it carefully."

"Damn..."

When the curly-haired woman and her group saw this, their expressions changed dramatically.

They didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary civilian man could have such terrifying strength.

The "alchemy of life" they carefully crafted was shattered with just a stick reconstructed from the soil.

"You...did you take the alchemical medicine for body training? Or did you also use the 'alchemy of life' to transform your body?!"

The curly-haired woman said solemnly.

Ji Lan allowed the monster in his hand to struggle desperately. He raised his head and looked at the other person, but he chuckled and said:

"None of it is right. I just ate a little more food and exercised. There's nothing surprising about it."

"..."

The curly-haired woman was speechless.

Of course they don't believe this nonsense.

"You're not bad." The curly-haired woman gritted her teeth and said. "Perhaps you have been exposed to the 'Path of the Fire Sword' and have such physical strength."

"I think you would be more suitable to join us."

"Lemay, Galken, let's go back. Mrs. McCalla may have been waiting for a long time..."

Gilan ignored the group of people, called out to the two, picked up the firewood in one hand and the lion-headed monster in the other, and walked straight ahead.

Seeing this, the curly-haired woman did not dare to block the way anymore, and they all moved away, looking at the blond young man with a little more fear and caution.

"Ah... OK."

Lemme woke up as if from a dream, and hurriedly followed.

Galken dragged two bundles of firewood, afraid of being left behind, and hurried to catch up.

"Wait for me, Mr. Gilan."
