In the Age of Elves, I have countless copies

In desperation, Wang Lu had to give the task of notifying the old man to Pikachu. As expected, Pikachu lived up to expectations and immediately rushed into the depths of the forest at the fastest speed.

Although Wang Lu was worried about Pikachu alone, he was also worried about the safety of the old man, who was busy running around for him.

He helped Wang Lu stop the harassment from the big bird and told Wang Lu about the herbs. Although Wang Lu didn't know or was not clear about the old man's background, who he was and where he came from, Wang Lu knew and was sure that the old man was definitely not a bad person.

So naturally, Wang Lu has regarded the old man as his good friend, or even a relative, and of course he is worried about his safety.

Worry is such a magical thing. Obviously, Wang Lu is in greater danger here, and the old man is obviously much stronger than Wang Lu, but Wang Lu is still very worried about the old man.

This worry was not about the old man's lack of strength and being injured by the big bird, but a worry from the bottom of his heart, but Wang Lu had not discovered it yet.

The scene changed, and the old man was fighting with Pidgeot at this moment. Pikachu suddenly rushed out of the forest, chirping.

Soon, the old man's Parasite seemed to understand something and told him in the most standard Mandarin that Wang Lu had obtained the herbs and they could retreat temporarily.

But who could have thought that the old man was so bloodthirsty that he fought with the big bird so happily and passionately that he took off his shirt in such heat, revealing his strong muscles.

Dabito also had enough fun and started howling.

The man and the bird were evenly matched in the forest.

Pikachu, Paraster, and Wang Lu, who arrived late, all stood aside in a line, watching stupidly, but no one dared to step forward to stop it.

After all, the old man has gone crazy with killing. If I try to stop him and get beaten as an enemy, wouldn't that be a waste of time?

I don’t know how much time has passed, but looking at the sky, it is already dusk. Wang Lu stretched lazily and got up from the recliner. The old man staggered towards him from a distance.

The battle is finally over.

Wang Lu then remembered the herbs and took them out from his schoolbag and gave them to the old man.

"By the way, old man, a masked man suddenly appeared just now and I repelled him."

Wang Lu thought of the masked man. No matter what, the identity of the masked man was unknown, so it would be better to tell the old man, at least so that the old man could prepare for the response.

"Don't tell anyone about this."

The old man asked Wang Lu what the mask of the masked man looked like, and immediately showed a solemn expression. Wang Lu saw the old man's expression change and wanted to ask, but after thinking about it, he didn't ask.

Wang Lu probably had some understanding of the old man's character. If the old man wanted to tell Wang Lu something, he would tell Wang Lu without Wang Lu asking first. If the old man didn't want to tell Wang Lu something, he might not tell him even if Wang Lu asked.

Therefore, Wang Lu chose to keep silent.

"This herb is correct. Come with me."

The old man then remembered that he had not put on his shirt yet. After putting on his shirt, the old man walked in front, and Wang Lu had no choice but to follow the old man and walk behind him in disappointment.

When they arrived at an open space, the old man motioned for Wang Lu to sit down first, so Wang Lu took out a recliner and sat down with Pikachu.

“No, I asked you to come here to bask in the sun?” The old man hit Wang Lu on the face with his elbow, and Wang Lu immediately felt a piercing pain.

Afterwards, Wang Lu immediately took away the recliner, sat obediently on a piece of marble, and looked at the old man.

The old man took out some herbs, which were light green in color.

The old man took out a medicine twister, put the medicine in and crushed it, then took out an alcohol lamp, lit it, and took out an exquisite porcelain bowl.

Afterwards, the old man put the crushed medicine into a bowl and placed it on the alcohol lamp. Then, a powerful mental force burst out from the old man's body, causing Wang Lu to retreat step by step.

I saw the old man using his mental power to control the size of the flame. The flame was sometimes big and sometimes small, like a beautiful woman dancing, very gorgeous and colorful.

Wang Lu was stunned, watching the old man making the medicine intently.

As the flames rose, the herbs gradually melted into liquid and flowed in the bowl. It seemed as if they had come to life. It was quite magical.

It was unknown how long it had been, but when Wang Lu reacted, it was already dusk. The old man took the porcelain bowl out of the flame and blew away the wind.

The herb magically turned into a solid state. The old man waved his hand and the herb was instantly divided into three parts. The old man held the three parts of the herb in his hand and used his rough hands to pinch the herb into a ball shape.

Wang Lu didn't understand why it had to be pinched into a ball shape.

The old man seemed to see through Wang Lu's doubts, but was too embarrassed to ask, so he took the lead in explaining:

"If this medicine is squeezed into a round shape, just imagine if the round ball has countless faces!"

"Yes!" Wang Lu said very obediently.

“Isn’t this very beneficial for digestion?”

After the old man finished speaking, Wang Lu immediately understood. So that's it. Wang Lu immediately understood the old man's good intentions.

The old man handed three pills covered with mud to Wang Lu, and Wang Lu took the pills respectfully with both hands.

"You, and your Pokémon, eat this, raw, and you will gain a great deal of strength!"

As the old man spoke, Wang Lu took out the pills and gave one to Pikachu.

Wang Lu did not doubt the truthfulness of the old man's words at all and swallowed the pill without hesitation. After all, if a strong man like the old man wanted to harm Wang Lu, there was no need to use such a method.

After swallowing the pill, Wang Lu immediately felt an unbearable heat all over his body, and a current of air surged through his body.

Under the influence of mental power, Wang Lu controlled this power with his own will, continuously absorbing it until the power was completely absorbed by Wang Lu.

Wang Lu instantly felt refreshed, as if he was reborn, and felt as light as a swallow.

"Thank you, you are awesome!"

Wang Lu bowed to the old man from the bottom of his heart. The old man didn't say much, but just patted Wang Lu on the shoulder.

"I see that you are very talented, why don't you be my apprentice!"

This time it was Wang Lu's turn to be dumbfounded. The old man actually said such a thing out of the blue.

"this!"

Wang Lu hesitated for a moment, but didn't know what to say.

"Little kid, I guess you don't know who I am yet. I am Gu Yue, the number one alchemist in Half Moon Continent!"

The old man slowly revealed his identity, and at this moment Wang Lu's jaw dropped to the ground in shock.

Wang Lu was amazed at the old man's identity and wanted to become his disciple. However, he still asked Gu Yue what he saw in him. Gu Yue didn't say much, but just said that they were destined to be together. Wang Lu naturally didn't believe it, but Gu Yue was silent. Wang Lu had no choice but to reject Gu Yue. Gu Yue was surprised by Wang Lu's behavior, but he appreciated it very much. He gave Wang Lu a token and a book and turned away. Wang Lu returned to Gao Yuan's residence in the city. Gao Yuan saw Wang Lu coming back and hurriedly asked him where he had been. Wang Lu concealed Gu Yue's existence and only said that he had entered the Abyss Forest again. Gao Yuan told Wang Lu that the matter had been resolved. Wang Lu knew that it was Gu Yue who helped him and was grateful.

Chapter 396: Rejection

Wang Lu was amazed at the old man's identity and also had the idea of ​​becoming his disciple, but he still asked Gu Yue what he saw in him. Gu Yue did not say much, just said that the two of them were destined to be together. Wang Lu naturally did not believe it, but Gu Yue was also silent. Wang Lu had no choice but to refuse Gu Yue. Gu Yue was surprised at Wang Lu's behavior, but he admired him very much. He gave Wang Lu one of his tokens and a book and turned away. Wang Lu then returned to Gao Yuan and their residence in the city. Gao Yuan saw Wang Lu coming back and hurriedly asked him where he had been. Wang Lu concealed the existence of Gu Yue and only said that he had entered the Abyss Forest again. Gao Yuan told Wang Lu that the matter had been resolved. Wang Lu knew that it was Gu Yue who helped, and was grateful.

As soon as the old man said this, Wang Lu felt his head spinning. This disheveled old man in front of him was actually Gu Yue, the number one alchemist who was hailed as a genius in the city!

"You, are you really Gu Yue?"

Wang Lu's words also became respectful at this moment, from always addressing "you" to "you".

However, it was very awkward to change now. Gu Yue didn't care much about this matter, but it made Wang Lu seem a little dishonest.

"Yes, you heard it right, I am Gu Yue!"

The old man puffed out his chest and said it with some pride, but in Wang Lu's eyes, this was considered very humble. You know, no matter where you are, alchemists are indispensable.

No matter who you are or how strong you are, you need an alchemist. A good alchemist can help a Pokémon evolve quickly. Pokémon does not always succeed in the evolution process.

The evolution of Pokémon can be said to rely on experience, accumulation of battles, and the continuous accumulation of its own elements. Over time, it will finally reach a critical point of power before evolution will occur.

But once the evolution fails, the Pokémon's strength will be greatly reduced, and their lives may even be in danger. No matter how strong the Pokémon is, there is a risk of failure.

The value of the Alchemist lies in the fact that he can completely avoid the dangers of Pokémon during evolution. In other words, with the assistance of the Alchemist, Pokémon can evolve successfully 100% of the time!

"You, do you think I am talented?"

Wang Lu asked with some surprise.

"Well, let me think about it, no, you're even a little stupid~!"

"Ah, then why do you want to take me as your apprentice?"

Wang Lu was immediately confused. Gu Yue's words were really weird.

"It's just because I think we are destined to be together!"

Gu Yue put his hands behind his back and spoke slowly.

Wang Lu really couldn't understand, could it be that these masters all like to accept disciples based on fate?

It definitely wouldn't be such a simple matter, but Gu Yue just wanted to conceal the real reason. Could it be that Gu Yue saw through the matter in the illustration?

Wang Lu was thinking, and Gu Yue saw Wang Lu's doubtful look, and continued with a smile:

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you!"

"If you say that, I believe you will be a very good master, but..."

Wang Lu was halfway through his words when he suddenly changed the subject.

"It is difficult for me to be your apprentice!"

Wang Lu hesitated for a long time and finally refused. Although the identity of the number one alchemist was very attractive, it could be said that many people would never encounter such a good opportunity in their lifetime.

But Wang Lu felt that if he became an apprentice now, his future plans would be hindered. If he wanted to become stronger, he certainly couldn't do without the help of the alchemist, but he couldn't delay his work because of alchemy.

Gu Yue was seen stroking his beard thoughtfully, and looking at Wang Lu with a very favorable eye for a while.

As the sky gradually darkens, the setting sun fades away, leaving only a little afterglow that seems to complement the earth.

"it is good!"

Gu Yue suddenly uttered a word and then put his hand on Wang Lu's shoulder.

"What good?"

Wang Lu did not dare to neglect him, but he asked curiously. For a long time, Wang Lu felt that Gu Yue always gasped when speaking. If Gu Yue was not an old man with a noble status, anyone would find this shortcoming unbearable.

"Well, young man, I admire you very much!"

Gu Yue is also old this year. He has experienced more years and more ups and downs than Wang Lu, and has met all kinds of people.

Without exception, everyone had the same attitude when they heard that Gu Yue was the number one alchemist.

They either begged Gu Yue to become their disciples or asked him to give them some good medicine. Over the years, Gu Yue had met many people who wanted to get medicine or study instead of teaching.

There is no one who does not love fame, wealth and power, and no one who does not love authority.

But today, the young man named Wang Lu standing in front of Gu Yue rejected something that many people dreamed of all their lives without even thinking about it.

Wang Lu wanted to become Gu Yue's disciple, but he actually refused after knowing Gu Yue's identity. Gu Yue had never met such a young man before, so it was understandable that he didn't know Gu Yue's identity.

But after knowing Gu Yue's identity, and believing him very much, and seeing Gu Yue making medicine, and even eating the medicine made by Gu Yue, he refused!

Gu Yue looked at Wang Lu in front of him, his eyes full of integrity, purity, and confidence.

"He's a very talented person!"

Gu Yue looked at Wang Lu with great admiration, and then took out a huge token and a book from his crotch.

"¨〃Keep this token and book. They will surely help you in the future."

Gu Yue left this sentence and left in a leisurely manner.

Wang Lu was also very grateful for Gu Yue's help. He finally rejected Gu Yue's request, but Gu Yue did not hesitate at all and instead gave him a treasure.

"Thank you!"

Wang Lu bowed deeply in the direction where Gu Yue left.

In the setting sun, Gu Yue turned her back to Wang Lu, with a barely perceptible smile on her lips.

Afterwards, while it was still light, Wang Lu stumbled out of the Abyss Forest and returned to where Gao Yuan and the others lived.

After returning, as soon as Wang Lu saw Gao Yuan, Gao Yuan rushed over and gave Wang Lu a big hug. Feeling the softness on his chest, Wang Lu shyly pushed Gao Yuan away.

"Where have you been? I was so worried about you!"

Gao Yuan was pushed away by Wang Lu, but he did not feel lost at all. Instead, he took Wang Lu's arm again enthusiastically and felt a softness coming over him again. This time, Wang Lu did not feel comfortable pushing Gao Yuan away, but just felt the warmth.

"I went to the Abyss Forest."

Afterwards, Wang Lu told Gao Yuan in detail about his trip to the Abyss Forest to get the herbs and what happened with the masked man from beginning to end.

However, Wang Lu concealed the matter of Gu Yue and the illustration. After all, these two things needed to be kept secret, not to mention the illustration, but Gu Yue had to be kept secret even more.

Gu Yue is an unpredictable person. If this matter is told to Gao Yuan and spread, it might be disadvantageous to Gu Yue.

Afterwards, Wang Lu asked Gao Yuan about his marriage, and Gao Yuan told Wang Lu the truth. No one from Forest Mansion ever contacted Gao Yuan again.

Wang Lu felt grateful, he knew it must be Gu Yue who helped, he was secretly glad that he had always respected Gu Yue.

Needless to say, the status and huge power of Forest Mansion can make Forest Mansion give up. It seems that Gu Yue is indeed the number one alchemist and should be a person with huge power.

Wang Lu secretly felt lucky that Gu Yue was not his enemy, as he was the one who could scare even the Senling Mansion.
