What the two of them were talking about could be considered a secret of the Mercury Tower. There were no more than ten people qualified to participate in it, so the two of them were hiding in a corner as they talked. They didn't even notice that the alchemy laboratory had become lively while the two of them were talking.
By the time the two of them recovered, they suddenly discovered the situation and couldn't help being stunned.
"What's going on?" Griffith's expression sank. In the eyes of this old-fashioned old man, this was clearly a sign of disrespect.
But soon, Griffith realized that it was all because of those two thin pieces of paper …
The two pieces of paper were being passed around by a group of Master Alchemists and Great Alchemists. Every time they reached their hands, they would let out a cry of alarm, as if they had seen something extraordinary.
Everyone was discussing spiritedly.
And the focus of their discussion was undoubtedly the young Master Alchemist Mafa Merlin who had just taken out those two pieces of paper.
'Is he really that amazing?'
Although he had already heard from Suyass that this young man called Mafa Merlin was already a peak Master Alchemist, Griffith still couldn't accept the fact that the two pieces of paper were causing a stir among a group of Master Alchemists and Great Alchemists. The old man hesitated for a bit before quietly pulling over a Master Alchemist with 70% curiosity and 30% disbelief.
"What's written on those two pieces of paper?"
"Too amazing, too amazing …" The Master Alchemist seemed to be in his fifties and was in the prime of his life. He had clearly been scared by those two pieces of paper. He wanted to answer Griffith's question, but he didn't know where to start.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Get to the point!" Griffith's expression sank.
"Oh, oh, the point …" Just like Suyass, this Master Alchemist had once served as an assistant in Griffith's alchemy laboratory. That experience had left a huge shadow in his heart. Although he was already a Master Alchemist, he was still scared when he saw Griffith's expression.
"That Mafa Merlin isn't lying, the two methods he wrote down can really solve the Darkness Evil Python Skin's magic solidification problem. Moreover …"
"Moreover what?"
"Moreover, these two methods are very strange …"
"What do you mean?"
"Of these two methods, one is simple while the other is complicated. They are two completely different styles …"
After saying this, the middle-aged Master Alchemist didn't know what to say, so he waved his hand and took the two pieces of paper from a colleague. Then, he handed one of them to Griffith. "Take a look at this first. There are a total of seven formulas, and they are all interlinked with each other. There are countless variables, and the amount of calculations required is astronomical …"
"Hmm …" Griffith looked at the piece of paper in his hand and couldn't help but nod. The Master Alchemist's words were indeed correct. The solution that Mafa Merlin had written on this piece of paper could be said to be complicated to the extreme. He had used a terrifying amount of numbers to solve this problem.
"Then look at this …"
"Hmm?" Griffith took the second piece of paper and looked at it. His expression immediately changed. "It … it's that simple?"
"Yes, it's frighteningly simple …" The middle-aged Master Alchemist shook his head, looking a bit lonely. The middle-aged Master Alchemist had already looked at this piece of paper no less than ten times, but every time he looked at it, he would feel a wisp of fear.
"…" Griffith looked at that piece of paper, unable to say anything for a long time.
If the first plan was to push the complexity to the extreme, then the second plan was to push the simplicity to the extreme. It was a kind of brutal simplicity that did not require any reasoning at all. It was to use a bold and imaginative way of thinking to find an entry point, and then cast aside all the minor details and solve all the problems like a hot knife through butter …
One was complicated, one was simple …
Two completely different styles actually appeared in the same alchemist.
Moreover, this alchemist was so young …
With this kind of strength, he was truly qualified to occupy a spot in the Starry Sky College's assembly.
As Griffith was thinking about this, Lin Yun had already quietly left the alchemy laboratory. To Lin Yun, giving out the two solutions was enough. The Mercury Tower would naturally think of a way to carry out the details.
Lin Yun had more important things to do.
Lin Yun left Karon's alchemy laboratory and went downstairs once again, to the place where he had fought with Herman.
"Hmm?" Lin Yun had just entered when he smelled a thick bloody smell.
'No way, how could it be so exciting?'
Lin Yun was suddenly startled. 'Sir Shawn wouldn't have killed him, right?
Isn't this a bit too bad? '
In any case, Herman was an important person of the Black Tower. According to Suyass, he was the same as Mason's uncle and might very well enter the Black Tower's Council.
That was the core of the Black Tower's power. Once he entered the Black Tower's Council, it would mean that he would have the power to control the future and fate of millions of mages. If such a person died in the Mercury Tower, the Black Tower wouldn't let it go, right?
To be honest, Lin Yun was a bit afraid of the Black Tower.
During the Magic Hand's gathering in the Ash Tower, the master of the Black Tower, whom Joy had called a Siren, had left a deep impression on Lin Yun. That was a person who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. One second, he was an enemy, and the next, he would shake hands with you for benefits. How could the Black Tower led by such a person be difficult to deal with?
Moreover …
In this era, no one was clearer than Lin Yun about how frightening the future Black Tower would be. It was hardly an exaggeration to say that the future Black Tower, together with the Cloud Tower, would crush all the forces of the Andalusia Kingdom and truly enter the ranks of the peak forces of Noscent.
If it wasn't necessary, Lin Yun didn't want to be enemies with them.
As he thought of this, Lin Yun hurriedly walked a few steps and found the dying Herman in a corner of the alchemy laboratory.
Lord Shawn was truly ruthless. Herman was lying in a corner of the alchemy laboratory. He didn't seem to have any injuries, but his mental state had already collapsed. His eyes were empty, devoid of any vitality, and they didn't even move when Lin Yun walked over. If not for Lin Yun feeling Herman's faint breathing, he might have truly thought that this important person of the Black Tower had already died.
Herman was lying on the ground.
His breathing was weak and difficult, and he looked like a corpse. Lin Yun shouted twice, but he didn't get the slightest response from Herman.
"I already said that as long as Lord Shawn makes a move, any answer can be obtained …" At this time, the faintly discernible Lord Shawn's figure appeared from the shadows. He still looked as thick-skinned as usual.
"Hey, Lord Shawn, aren't you being too ruthless? Look, this guy is about to be killed by you. This is an important person of the Black Tower, I won't be able to explain myself if he dies …" Lin Yun was somewhat worried.
Herman took the initiative to make a move against him and ended up falling into his hands. Being taught a lesson by Lin Yun was very normal. Even if Hören personally came, he wouldn't fall out with Lin Yun because of this.
But …
It was different if he died.
After all, he was someone who had a high chance of entering the Black Tower's Council.
"Don't worry, Lord Shawn knows what he's doing. If you're worried, I'll have him jump around for you to see …" After saying that, Lord Shawn suddenly chanted an incantation, and a soul-targeting power instantly struck Herman.
Herman, who had been lying on the ground like a corpse, directly jumped up when he heard Lord Shawn's incantation.
He really jumped up …
Herman let out a blood-curdling scream, and even Lin Yun couldn't help showing a sympathetic expression when he heard it.
"Look, he's alive and kicking!" Lord Shawn's voice was filled with pride.
"…" Lin Yun was lifeless.
"Oh right, I already had him copy the Meditation Law Set you wanted and put it on the refining table. You can take a look at it yourself. Alright, I still have something to do, I'll be leaving first …"
After saying this, Lord Shawn turned into a cloud of smoke and tried to enter the Spirit Walker.
"Stop!" Lin Yun wasn't an idiot, how could he let him escape? Before Lord Shawn could get close to the Soul Walker, Lin Yun had already raised his hand and slashed. In a flash, only sparks could be seen as several dozen Fire Bolts interweaved together, forming a small cage that contained Lord Shawn.
"Fuck, what are you doing? Are you trying to bite the hand that fed you?"
"Lord Shawn, you seem to have forgotten to ask for the reward?" Lin Yun simply ignored Shawn's curses and only looked at that cage of flames before asking with a smile, "You aren't usually like this, that's a level 25 mana crystal …"
"…" Lord Shawn's voice suddenly became sluggish, his gaze flickering as he looked at Lin Yun. But Lord Shawn was Lord Shawn. Even under such circumstances, he didn't feel guilty at all. "What's wrong? I'm in a good mood today, so I don't need your reward, alright?"
"Haha, Lord Shawn, you might be able to deceive others, but how could you deceive me? You usually wouldn't even let a level 5 mana crystal go, yet you aren't even looking at such a big level 25 mana crystal. Can you tell me what you mean?"
