From Alchemy Apprentice to All-Powerful God King

Flynn was caught off guard by Matthew's shout.

Before I knew it, the kid had actually shouted it out.

Noticing Luca looking over, he instinctively let go of her hand, then put his arm around Matthew and laughed.

"Hehe, that might be a misunderstanding. Here, please have your mentor refine it for me again. Perhaps I didn't understand it."

Looking at Flynn's fickle face, Matthew felt contempt, but he still had to play his part.

"Alright then, but I don't have the materials right now."

"I have some, use mine!"

Without saying a word, Flynn pulled Matthew to the alchemy table and took out the materials needed for the swarm of exploding bugs.

Then he took out another alchemy table from the Ring and placed the same materials on it.

"I'll train with you this time, so we can understand where the problem lies." Flynn, looking like he was helping Matthew find the loopholes, gestured for him to start quickly.

Seeing this, Matthew was speechless; he had never seen such a shameless person before.

However, even if it's a one-to-one replica, it's impossible to make it without his personal instruction.

Inside the room, Matthew placed a plant in the container, and Flynn followed suit.

The two moved in less than half a second, and until the very last step, Flynn's gaze never left Matthew's alchemy table.

"Isn't it successfully made? How could the recipe be fake?"

Finally, Matthew picked up the demon insect and the one Flynn had refined and placed them together. There was no difference between them, even the grooves on their carapaces were almost identical.

But Flynn still refused to admit it, picked up the two demonic insects, and walked outside.

"You'll only know the problem if you try it."

After saying that, he injected magic into the two demonic insects, then threw them in the yard, and used magic to suppress the area that was about to explode.

The next moment, an explosion rang out in the courtyard, followed by a series of smaller explosions.

That was made by Ma Xiu. On the other hand, Flynn's creation also exploded, but it wasn't as loud as the fart Luca had just let out while sitting next to him.

As for its power, it can be said to be non-existent.

"Did I influence you?"

Luca, who was standing to the side, looked at the demonic insects that hadn't exploded and smiled at Flynn.

"Impossible! I controlled the timing perfectly, so why didn't it explode?"

Flynn wanted to tie Matthew up and interrogate him, but he knew the other man hadn't lied to him; every step was exactly the same, with no mistakes in dosage or timing.

Is it really because my skills are lacking?

Flynn was suddenly gripped by self-doubt.

He looked up and saw Luca, then seemed to remember something and spoke.

"Luca, why don't you try making it too? Matthew, you tell him the recipe."

"Sure, I'm also quite curious about swarms of exploding bugs."

Soon, under Matthew's guidance, Luca successfully crafted the swarm of exploding bugs.

As more explosions rang out outside the courtyard, Flynn's expression grew even more grim.

If someone fails to refine it, it can be said that there is a problem with the recipe.

But if only one person fails, then it means that the problem lies with that person.

Flynn was in that situation; he didn't even know which step had caused the problem.

"Instructor Flynn, why don't you take another look at the alchemy manual? Have you forgotten the important points because it's been too long since you've refined this kind of one-time-use magical insect?"

Luca, suppressing a laugh, put his arm around Matthew's shoulder and turned his head away.

If the latter hadn't told him that he needed to use magic to cultivate the insect eggs, he wouldn't have been able to refine them. Although he didn't know how the other party used magic, he didn't ask any further questions.

As long as Flynn isn't told, he'll never understand how a one-time-use magical insect could be cultivated using his own magic power.

"Matthew, is there some step you haven't told me about?"

Flynn remained defiant, his expression gradually darkening; he didn't believe he could have made a mistake.

As one of the few mages in the Val Town Guild, although his alchemy skills were not the best, they were not so bad that he couldn't even successfully refine a one-time magic insect.

"I swear to God, Professor Flynn, I practically taught you step by step; there's no secret I'm keeping to myself."

"Besides, don't you know what kind of person I am after all these years at the Alchemy Workshop? I'm the number one person who respects teachers and values ​​tradition! If I wanted to hide it from you, why would I have given you the formula?"

"You have to have a conscience, Professor Flynn!"

Matthew's continuous barrage of words left Flynn speechless, and it must be said that Matthew's performance in the Alchemist's Workshop was truly outstanding.

"Exactly! Exactly! Is it possible that you're just not good enough?"

Luca's untimely intervention made Flynn's face grow even uglier, but he dared not retaliate.

"snort!"

At this moment, Flynn felt powerless and helpless. With Luca there, he couldn't possibly do anything to Matthew.

The key recipe was real, but he couldn't replicate it, so he could only angrily fling his sleeves and walk out the door.

Matthew's eyes surged with magic as he looked at Flynn's back, only to see that the black aura gathering above his head had become even denser.

"Alright, I should be leaving soon too. I still need to choose a seat."

After a while, Luca also left Matthew's house, telling him before he left that with him there, Flynn wouldn't dare to do anything reckless.

The courtyard fell silent again.

Looking at the craters on the ground caused by the swarm of exploding bugs, Matthew shook his head and laughed. "Even the wicked will have to suffer the consequences."

He was looking forward to the day Flynn would be in big trouble.

After closing the doors and windows again to make sure no one would come looking for him, Matthew took the jar containing the worm from the Ring.

After three days of cultivation, the cryptogams have recovered their vitality.

During this time, Matthew continuously nourished the creature with his own blood while using magic to expel the mixed blood that had previously parasitized the beast.

After pouring it onto the back of his hand, the gnat bug tilted its body affectionately and looked at Matthew curiously.

Matthew was also observing it at the same time.

Its slender body, like bamboo joints, rapidly released a layer of hazy gray gas under the stimulation of magic.

The color then gradually changed, becoming almost the same skin tone as the back of his hand, making it difficult to discern its exact location even upon close inspection.

"It lacks offensive capabilities, but its functionality is extremely useful."

After adjusting his condition, Matthew took out his dagger again and skillfully made a cut on his back that reached the bone.

Next, place the cryptogams inside.

Stimulated by the magic, the worm quickly climbed up Matthew's spine until it was completely attached to him and almost fused together. Then it poured the magic potion into the wound and swallowed it in large gulps.

The wound on his back healed at a visible speed, and at the same time, magic flowed back into Matthew's body.

Dung beetles are a form of energy, so I didn't feel this last time.

At this moment, Matthew felt his magic power rapidly increasing, and if he used the explosive bug's ability immediately, its power and range would be even greater.

After the complete healing and regeneration were finished, Matthew immediately stood up and released his magic to envelop his entire body.

Then a layer of hazy gas appeared on his body, and the next moment, his body blended perfectly into the environment.

If he touches the tabletop, his body will quickly change to the color of the table, and if he lies on the table, he will hardly be noticed.

After trying out all the items in the room, Matthew had a general grasp of his new ability.

As he stepped out of the courtyard, he watched the light of day gradually dim, and his smile grew even wider.

"Flynn, you've done so many bad things, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
