"Master Peter, I'm going to retreat for a while. Thank you for your help!" Abel did not enter the retreat room immediately. Instead, he turned around and bowed to Master Peter.
"Master Bennett, I hope to hear good news from you. Have you memorized the master alchemy pattern?" Master Peter knew Abel did not spend a lot of time looking at the master alchemy pattern. Although there was one in the retreat room, it was not drawn by a master alchemist who was good at drawing. It could only be used as a reference.
"Thank you for your concern. I think the pattern is already here!" Said Abel with a smile as he pointed at his head.
Master Peter was stunned. He had always been called a genius by many elves. Even if his alchemy pattern was damaged, it did not affect the elves' opinion of him.
However, at that moment, he felt like a normal elf facing a genius. He was a normal elf, and Abel was the genius.
"You are a true genius!" Master Peter bowed again.
Abel smiled and turned to enter the retreat room. The moment he closed the door, the magic circles outside lit up one by one. The defensive circle, the seclusion circle, and some support circles were all activated.
Part of the energy source for these magic circles came from the Alchemy Union's energy room, while the other part came from Angstrom City's city defense circle.
A master alchemist meant a lot to a city. Angstrom City had to fully support a master alchemist like this. It was a rule.
"Master Bennett, please wait!" Master Alfred ran towards the basement and yelled. It was rare for him to do something like this.
"Master Alfred, you're late. Master Bennett has already gone in!" Master Peter said calmly.
"Master Peter, why didn't you talk to him? Do you know how big of a loss the Alchemy Union will suffer if Master Bennett fails to level up?" Master Alfred scolded. He no longer cared about his attitude towards Master Peter.
"Of course, I know how much of a genius Master Bennett is, but neither you nor I have the right to influence a master alchemist by honor's decision!" Master Peter lowered his voice.
Master Alfred's face suddenly became very helpless. Indeed, Abel was a master alchemist by honor with the same status as him. The only difference was that he often stayed in the Alchemy Union, so he had a higher status in the Alchemy Union.
However, this status did not allow him to influence the decision of another master alchemist by honor. At most, he could only persuade him as a member of the union.
"Master Peter, I'm sorry for my attitude just then!" Master Alfred bowed and said apologetically.
"It's okay, Master Alfred. I know you're thinking about Master Bennett and the union!" Master Peter shook his head.
The two Master Alchemists didn't say anything for a while. They both looked at the seclusion room that was hidden by several magic arrays.
Master Mara's alchemy room was not in the Alchemy Union. Although she was also a master alchemist by honor, she was not trained by the Alchemy Union of Angstrom City. Therefore, she did not have a deep relationship with the Alchemy Union of Angstrom City.
She stayed in Angstrom City because of Grand Duke Edwina's invitation. Of course, she also received news that an elite alchemist had entered the Master Alchemy Retreat Room.
She did not ask who was going to level up to a Master Alchemist. She knew it would not succeed. She had already lost the courage and confidence to level up.
In the Grand Duke's residence, an intelligence officer was rushing into the main hall with anxious steps. His footsteps showed the anxiety in his heart.
"The prestigious Grand Duke Edwina, I have important news to report to you!" The intelligence officer ignored the other councilors and bowed to Grand Duke Edwina as soon as he entered the palace.
Intelligence officers had the right to see the Grand Duke Edwina at any time. Of course, the information had to be urgent.
"You can all leave now. We'll deal with it tomorrow!" Grand Duke Edwina said to the elven councilors.
The elven councilors bowed and left the palace one by one.
"Speak, what is it?" Grand Duke Edwina lowered her voice.
"I just received a message from the city spirit. Master Bennett has opened the Master Alchemy Retreat Room!" The intelligence officer bowed and reported.
Although Master Alfred had banned the Alchemy Union's spirit, he could not ban the city spirit. The city spirit's authority was higher than any other elves. It could search for anything it wanted.
"Master Bennett is going to level up to a Master Alchemist?" Grand Duke Edwina asked in surprise.
Afterward, her face lit up with joy and said with a smile, "That's great. Master Bennett is going to become a Master Alchemist!"
The intelligence officer looked at Grand Duke Edwina speechlessly. Did the Grand Duke not think about the risk of becoming a Master Alchemist?
Grand Duke Edwina had the same thought as Abel. She knew Abel's identity. Alchemy was only one of Abel's many professions. With Abel's performance, if Abel said he could become a Master Alchemist, the success rate would be very high.
Even if he failed, it wouldn't be a problem. At most, the Grand Ducal Palace would stop supplying elven perfume. The Grand Ducal Palace had stored up a lot of elven perfume. It was enough to last them for 10 years.
In 10 years, Abel would be able to become an alchemist again. This might be impossible for those elite alchemists who failed, but it was nothing to Abel, who only used 2 to 3 years to achieve this.
"Your Majesty, if this news gets out, the entire Angstrom City, or even the entire elven race, will be in chaos!" The intelligence officer reminded.
"That's true. Then keep it a secret. Don't let any elves know about this. We'll talk about it after Master Bennett comes out of his retreat room!" Grand Duke Edwina lowered her voice.
The intelligence officer bowed and left the palace. Duke Albert, who had been silent the whole time, couldn't help but shake his head.
"Luckily I found a way to get the beauty potion from Abel. Otherwise, if he failed to level up, there would be no beauty potion left!" Duke Albert said jokingly with a smile.
Of course, he was joking. At the same time, he was worried about Abel's level up.
No matter who it was, they would be shocked if they knew that Abel was a Master Alchemist by honor and a Grandmaster Blacksmith. On top of that, he had made so many potions that had a huge impact on the elven race, including those that could increase crop yields. Therefore, they couldn't stay calm about his decision.
In the past few months, when other elven cities had to reduce the amount of food they had, Angstrom City had maintained a normal supply of fruits. This was Abel's ability.
"I hope he succeeds. We can't let it affect the fruit supply in the Orwell Valley!" Grand Duke Edwina sighed.
Duke Albert's face also became serious. They all thought the third goddess spring water was Abel's alchemy creation. Once Abel lost his alchemy ability, they would no longer be able to supply this potion.
"Why does Abel want to become a Master Alchemist now? Can't he wait for 10 years!" Duke Albert also thought of this, so he couldn't help but complain.
"Abel is not an elf. 10 years is nothing to an elf, but it is a very long time for a human!" Grand Duke Edwina said helplessly.
Elves could live for 500 years without training, but humans could only live for 100 years without training. Therefore, 10 years was very different for humans and elves.
Abel was only 16 years old, and he had only been training for a few years. 10 years was too long for him.
"Why do you think this Abel is so talented?" Duke Albert sighed.
He had completely forgotten that it was because of Abel's talent that they accepted a human as an elf. It was also because of Abel's talent that they accepted Lorraine to date a human.
