Dragon Raja's Number One Player

Chapter 170 Vice Principal, I Want to Learn Alchemy

"Is that Lin Zhiying? I heard he's a strong candidate for the next student council president."

There were students hurrying along the roadside. After seeing Lin Zhiying, they stopped and said something.

This guy is a big shot at school now, especially since he just came back from a dragon-slaying mission.

"A favorable candidate? They've already slain two dragons, possibly even two dragon kings. Who else could be the next student council president?"

Another student retorted with a laugh, saying that in this situation, let alone being the president of the "student council," he would be qualified to be a teacher at Kassel College if he weren't too old.

"Should we get an autograph beforehand? It should appreciate in value later, and then we can sell it to the new students."

One of the students spoke up and suggested it.

Good idea. Lin Zhiying is already so successful now, his fame will definitely be even greater by then.

If someone really hoards autographs, there should be some truth to it.

However, when they looked back, Lin Zhiying was nowhere to be seen.

"Bang." Lin Zhiying closed the door as she returned to her dormitory.

He can just praise himself, but he wants to sell his autograph for money.

I'm the one who can make money selling these things; it's not your turn.

The dormitory room for two was very quiet. Chu Zihang did not return to the dormitory after returning from China, saying that he was going to the training ground to spar with Caesar.

But it's good that no one is here.

Lin Zhiying rummaged in his backpack and took out a piece of copper-green iron that looked unremarkable.

This was given to me by Xia Mi before she left; it must have been obtained from the remains of the "King of Bronze and Fire".

Because its quality is displayed as "The Only Legend" on the panel!

"How should I use it?"

Lin Zhiying muttered to himself, "This is definitely not the complete form of this item."

His fingertips traced the copper sheet, and as if struck by a thought, he tried to focus his attention on it.

Mental energy appeared and coiled around the copper sheet.

The next moment, a pale yellow light shone from the copper plate and projected into the room.

【Jade Record: True (The Only Legend)】

【Effect:

This book encapsulates the alchemy techniques of the "King of Bronze and Fire," containing both alchemy methods and blueprints, with different alchemy content presented according to the reader's level of alchemy skill.

[Currently unlocked content: 0.0.%]

[Introduction: This book records the insights of the "King of Bronze and Fire" and contains a wealth of alchemical knowledge, making it an invaluable treasure for any alchemist.]

The alchemy book left behind by the "King of Bronze and Fire" was like a pillow for someone who was sleepy!

I had originally planned to learn alchemy, and this thing itself could be considered a treasure.

It not only includes alchemy techniques, but also countless blueprints, and the higher one's alchemy skills, the greater the rewards one will receive from it.

Putting everything else aside, after learning this, it will be much easier to crack and access "Nepalungen" when I encounter it again.

Even now, just opening Lin Zhiying displays the message "Alchemy experience +3, +3————" on the panel next to it.

However, after increasing slightly, it stopped rising.

Lin Zhiying suspects the reason is that he hasn't formally studied alchemy yet.

Only by learning alchemy can the value of the Jade Record be maximized.

At Kassel College, the vice principal is undoubtedly the best alchemist.

He remembered that the vice principal had said he could learn from him, but Lin Zhiying did not dial the vice principal's number.

The vice principal's phone number wasn't a secret on campus, but not many people dared to call him or had their calls answered.

The room in the clock tower was filled with the pungent smell of whiskey, and the floor was littered with brandy, whiskey, beer bottles, and all sorts of other things.

The curtains were half-drawn, letting in a few beams of light. The room was dim and cluttered, with a somewhat worn sofa in the center.

The vice principal's face was covered with a women's underwear, whose identity was unknown, wrapped in a blanket.

"Beep beep beep."

The phone kept ringing. The vice principal sniffed, reluctantly opened his eyes, and threw the underwear off his face.

He reached out, picked up the phone on the table, and pressed the answer button.

"Hello, who is it?"

He spoke weakly.

"It's me, Vice Principal Lin Zhiying."

Upon hearing Lin Zhiying's voice, the vice principal, who had been half-asleep, was instantly awakened. Lin Zhiying, wasn't this guy supposed to be slaying a dragon?

You're back so quickly, or is there some problem that requires my intervention?

For some reason, the vice principal had a bad feeling.

"Vice Principal, may I learn alchemy from you?"

After saying this, Lin Zhiying clearly felt the other person fall silent.

The vice principal remembered that he had mentioned on the plane that the boy could learn alchemy from him.

However, despite his words, he hasn't taught any students in a long time, and he's too lazy to do so anyway.

Therefore, he subconsciously wanted to decline, but if he really wanted to learn alchemy, he could recommend Lin Zhiying to other professors in the academy.

However, the vice principal ultimately did not say those words, because in front of him, a silver-haired face appeared on the projection: "Say yes to him."

Angers, projected into the air, spoke up, "Wait a moment."

The vice principal muted the phone. "You're fucking spying on me again."

He pulled a blanket over himself; he usually preferred to sleep naked.

Angers smiled slightly and said softly, "I was afraid you'd die suddenly."

"Your death is no big deal, but once the 'rules' are lifted, who knows what kind of chaos will erupt in the school."

The vice principal rolled his eyes at Angers. "That's no reason for you to spy on me, okay? Besides, even though I smoke, drink, and stay up all night every day, I'm in top health."

As proof, the vice principal forcefully pounded his hairy chest.

"Agree to it, consider it a reward for this dragon-slaying operation."

After saying that, Angers hung up the phone.

"That's easy for you to say. I was the one who taught you, not you."

The vice-principal complained in his room, knowing that Angers should be able to hear him.

He picked up the phone, and because it was an internal call within the academy, the call lasted a long time.

"You just said you wanted to learn alchemy from me?"

"That's right, everyone knows that you, Vice Principal, are the best at alchemy. It's definitely the right thing to learn alchemy from you."

"You're smart to know what's good for you," the vice principal said, which pleased him greatly.

"You made a significant contribution to the school by slaying the dragon this time. As a reward, you will come with me to learn alchemy."

""

"Come over in a bit and take a look. I'll teach you some basics."

97

After hanging up the phone, the vice principal searched for clothes to wear in the room.

Because they haven't been washed for a long time, some of the clothes have become stiff.

I casually picked up a whiskey that had been sitting for who knows how long and had become somewhat stale, and took a sip.

The vice-principal thought to himself that he wondered what Angers was planning. No one gets up early without a reason; having invested so much, he must want even more in return.

The British-style scenery on campus is indeed beautiful; it would be perfect for filming a campus romance drama.

Zero was still in class as a freshman, so he didn't go to find her. After all, not everyone had the privilege of being exempt from classes after slaying a dragon like him.

As Lu Mingfei passed by the teaching building, he noticed a group of people gathered there from afar.

He spotted "One Cut Through Water" standing at the door from the crowd.

At the same time Lin Zhiying saw him, "One-Cut Water" also looked over.

"Hey bro, are you taking alchemy classes here too?"

"One Cut Through Water" stepped out from the group and greeted everyone warmly.

Then, as soon as he spoke, everyone else in the classroom looked over. If there hadn't been a teacher in the classroom, they probably would have rushed out.

After all, this is Lin Zhiying. There are many benefits to hanging out with him. The "One-Cut Water" in front of us is the best example. This is Caius Walker from the Alchemy Department.

He didn't recognize the name; it should be an original professor created by Xuanyu Company.

Alchemy? No wonder the classroom is so lively; after all, what player doesn't love explosions?

Moreover, for many players, "alchemy" can be exchanged for real money; the equipment they refine can be sold for real currency.

The incantation of "One Cut Through Water" is also "Junyan". Although its elemental affinity is lower than his own, it is reasonable that he learned alchemy.

"Why don't you go and learn from the vice principal?"

Thinking of something, Lin Zhiying spoke up, "One cut through water. As someone who also participated in this dragon-slaying mission, I should be able to learn from the vice principal."

"One Cut Through Water" certainly knew that the vice principal was highly skilled in alchemy, but the problem was that he needed to be able to learn from him. If the other party wouldn't teach him, what could he do?

"It's simple, just give him a call. I can do it, and you can do it too."

Lin Zhiying spoke up.

"One Cut Cuts Water" really wants to say, you're different, boss. But since he said that, he's willing to give it a try, what if it works?

Inside the clock tower, the vice principal's phone rang again.

He had estimated that Lin Zhiying would take a while to arrive, and, still hungover, he planned to take a short nap. Then he was woken up again, and said irritably, "Who are you?"

"Vice Principal, I am 'One Cut of Water,' and I want to learn alchemy from you."

Why are they all coming to me to study? What do these students think this place is? The clock tower is not usually open to the public.

Without much thought, the vice principal prepared to refuse: "No—"

"One Cut Cuts Water" looked at Lin Zhiying, who nodded at him, and mustered up his courage to say, "Lin Zhiying asked me to contact you."

Lin Zhiying?

Upon hearing this, the vice principal's words caught in his throat.

Is this another one of Angers's arrangements? One person isn't enough, so they need to insert another one, right?

This guy really treats himself like an animal!

He wasn't in the mood to contact Angers again to confirm. After thinking about it, he figured it wouldn't make much difference whether he brought one person or two. So he said, "Alright then, consider it your reward for this mission. You and Lin Zhiying can come together."

After hanging up the phone, "One Cut to Cut Water" was stunned for a moment, wondering if he was dreaming.

Can I really learn alchemy from the vice principal?

The vice principal's alchemy skills are definitely far superior to those of any quack professors. It's like having Dugu Qiubai personally teach you martial arts in a martial arts world.

Anyone with a brain would know that his future is limitless.

"One Cut Cuts Water" knows he owes all of this to Lin Zhiying; if he were on his own, he probably would have refused long ago.

It was only because I mentioned Lin Zhiying's name that the vice principal agreed.

The other players around him were really envious; this is what it means to hang out with a big shot.

"Dude, you're way too reckless! You just slayed a dragon and now you're learning alchemy? How are we supposed to play like this?!"

"I'm so envious—I can't even learn basic alchemy, while they're already studying with the vice principal."

The players' gazes towards Lin Zhiying changed from admiration to fervent envy.

"Hey boss, help me out! Help me out!"

One player excitedly raised his hand.

Lin Zhiying smiled, offered no further explanation, and continued walking towards the clock tower.

After the two of them walked away, one of the players had an idea. Since "One Cut Through Water" mentioned Lin Zhiying's role and that he could learn from the vice principal, why didn't he give it a try?

Anyway, Lin Zhiying isn't here, so even if she finds out later, she'll definitely have already learned a lot.

This deal is absolutely worth it!

Without hesitation, he dialed the vice principal's number.

"Vice Principal, I want to learn alchemy from you. Lin Zhiying asked me to tell you."

"roll----"

The person on the other end of the phone said coldly, and then immediately hung up.

Following the vice principal's instructions, the alchemical array downstairs at the clock tower has been deciphered.

Lin Zhiying and "One Cut of Water" arrived at the top floor without any problems and saw the wooden door they had seen at "Freedom Day".

----------------

However, unlike before, the wooden door was now ajar in front of the two of them. He gently pulled the door open and saw what the room looked like.

Facing directly ahead is a floor-to-ceiling window that faces the sun. It's slightly ajar, revealing vintage swimsuits on the wall. The beautiful women are stunning. The table is covered with adult magazines and DVDs.

The vice principal coughed, dressed in an inappropriate beach outfit; anyone who didn't know better would think he was on vacation.

"This movie is really good. If you'd like, I can recommend it to you later."

The vice principal raised an eyebrow and pointed to a CD on the table.

"We'll talk about that later. Let's go learn alchemy first."

Lin Zhiying spoke up, showing that he hadn't forgotten the important matter.

Moreover, given Xuanyu Company's track record, it's highly likely they won't be able to provide this kind of information.

Otherwise, it's easy for someone to do something illegal in the game.

"no problem."

The vice principal led the way, opening the door to another room connected to the attic.

"This is my laboratory, connected to the inner world by a magic circle, so there's no need to worry about it being destroyed."

The room contained crucibles, long-necked bottles, and metal molds of various shapes. It appeared to be much larger than the outside, suggesting the use of an alchemy array.

The vice principal looked at Lin Zhiying and said, "From today onwards, you will be learning alchemy with me."

"One-Cut-Water" waved excitedly, "What about me? Vice Principal, what about me?"

"Your job is to clean."

The principal rolled his eyes and spoke.

Despite saying that, he still arranged an experimental table for "cutting water with a single cut".

"The foundation of alchemy lies in understanding the elements."

His voice echoed in the empty laboratory: "The world is made up of five elements: fire, water, wind, earth, and spirit. You all know that, right?"

Lin Zhiying and "One Cut to Cut Water" nodded.

"Alchemy, on the other hand, is the modification of matter, the most famous aspect of which is the phrase 'killing living metal.'"

The vice principal pointed to a piece of iron on the table. "Iron. A common element, fragile, and cheap."

"But through alchemy, we can change its properties, making it harder than steel, even allowing it to burn like fire. That's the magic of alchemy!"

The vice principal became more and more passionate as he spoke, after all, this was precisely his area of ​​expertise.

"You might ask, can all elements be used to make gold?"

The vice principal glanced at Lin Zhiying, then at "One Cut Through Water," and chuckled, "Fire element excels at transformation and is the best medium for alchemy. Other elements can also be used, but they are not the mainstream."

He paused, then added meaningfully, "Of course, dragons are an exception; at least every dragon king is a master alchemist."

.

"Alright, enough with the theory, let's get started."

A flame ignited in his hand, and the moment the iron block touched it, a flash of light appeared on it, and the originally ordinary iron block underwent an extraordinary change.

On the panel:

[Iron Block (Grade E)]

[Description: Iron blocks forged through alchemy can barely serve as basic alchemy materials.]

Since it was forged into metal in just a moment, the vice principal truly deserves to be called an alchemy master.

The vice principal took out two identical iron blocks from the cabinet and threw them to Lin Zhiying and "One-Cut-Water" respectively: "Your task today is to remove the impurities from this iron and extract the pure elements."

"start!"

"One cut through water"—I took a deep breath, feeling extremely nervous.

To be honest, he didn't see what the vice principal did at all.

But he didn't dare say it. He was already somewhat unpopular, and if he said it, he was afraid he would be kicked out.

On the other side, Lin Zhiying had already started moving.

His alchemy experience from his previous life allowed him to memorize the vice principal's alchemy techniques at a glance.

The elements in the air rippled slightly, and the fire element slowly condensed.

Lin Zhiying's movements were fluid and graceful. He heated the crucible and then put the iron block into it, where fire elements continuously gathered.

The entire process took only ten seconds.

Ten seconds later, a crystal-clear pure iron ingot lay quietly in the mold.

"It's okay, failure is normal. I'll teach you slowly later."

The vice principal spoke up, admitting he had no choice but to teach the two of them, and he tried to vent his frustration.

After all, how could one possibly learn alchemy by simply demonstrating it once?

"Vice Principal, I've mastered it."

Then he saw the iron block in Lin Zhiying's hand; its luster was unmistakable, indicating that it had indeed been forged.

The laboratory fell silent instantly.

Is this the difference between myself and the experts?!

"One Cut Through Water" swallowed hard, looking at the iron block in front of him with teeth marks, then at Lin Zhiying's flawless iron ingot, his face full of disbelief.

"Wow, are you sure this is your first time learning? This speed is monstrous!"

"Is this guy a newbie?"

"This is simply an alchemical genius!"

The vice principal was so excited that his beard stood on end. He looked at Lin Zhiying with shock in his eyes.

Normally, it takes at least half a month to learn this, and some people even need several months to barely be able to refine a qualified metal.

You mean ten seconds?

Fortunately, the "One Cut to Cut Water" technique on the side was not successfully refined.

The vice principal was actually quite satisfied with his appearance; this was the normal speed, wasn't it?

It turns out it wasn't my problem, but that guy was too weird.

"It's alright, I was much better than you back in the day."

The vice principal stubbornly spoke up.

As the sky outside gradually darkened.

Today's training is almost over, and the vice principal spoke, preparing to let them leave.

Suddenly another call came in. The vice principal looked displeased. What was wrong with him today? He received more phone calls in one day than he had in six months.

Until I saw the name on the phone: Angers.

A moment later, the vice principal returned to the room and said to Lin Zhiying, "The principal just called me and asked you to go to the equipment department tomorrow. Those things you brought back, have you figured out something..."

These clues are very likely related to the Dragon King.
