Astral Apostle Chapter 76: Break 0 attributes
After deliberately revealing the item's analytical abilities, things have changed significantly.
As the news spread like wildfire, the entire workshop soon became aware of Zhou Jing's "talent".
In the past few days, Zhou Jing can always feel the eyes of other craftsmen with complicated emotions, no longer looking at the scroll king, but more like an unattainable existence.
Many craftsmen also vaguely heard rumors that the workshop decided to let Zhou Jing hold a special position in the future and become the only designated drug tester in the workshop.
In the future, all the potions made by others will be handed over to Zhou Jing to taste and measure, which means that he is no longer just a craftsman, but the "important research equipment" of the imperial workshop, which is above everyone else.
As long as this talent is not lost, this Bill will always have this special status.
This is not a question of envy and jealousy. The unreachable talent gap makes people lose their enthusiasm for catching up. It seems that Bill has suddenly become a tickling king who lives by his side. A story told by someone else.
Zhou Jing didn't pay much attention to the ideas of the colleagues in the workshop. After showing his "talent", he submitted the sword-tailed eagle potion. By the way, he took another task of improving the blood potion, and continued to brush the indicators. Multiple recipes.
After a few days like this, Zhou Jing was approached by the top of the workshop again and said that he would take him to meet someone.
"Who wants to see me?"
Zhou Jing put down the herbs he was grinding, turned his head to look at the group of people, his tone was curious.
The workshop owner squeezed out a smile: "It's the king who wants to see you."
The King! Zhou Jing's eyes lit up.
My own hard goods finally attracted the attention of the higher-ups.
But it turned out to be the king of Terra... Not only did he catch a fish, but he was a big head fish!
After using three apostles to travel back and forth, after more than a year in the alien world, I finally met the ruler of the country.
After touching the core of power, I finally stepped into a new level...
For a while, Zhou Jing had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and deliberately made an expression of fear and honor, like a grasshopper who saw the ruler of the country for the first time, nervously said:
"What should I do when I meet the king?"
"Don't be afraid, just talk normally, the king just wants to know more about you."
The senior management of the workshop came up to comfort him in turn. Seeing that Zhou Jing's mood had calmed down, he took him away.
The group walked out of the workshop and came to the main house of the imperial hunter station. At this moment, there are a large number of guards guarding here, and there are many strong alien blood warriors standing guard. No.
On the training ground opposite the main house, many hunters are sitting, standing or squatting, looking at this side from a distance, with no extra movement.
There is a street between the two sides. It is not a confrontation, but it is clear.
Zhou Jing saw Jason's figure in the crowd at the training ground, and then deliberately looked away, followed the workshop executives into the main house without looking back, leaving only the backs of the people outside.
There were already a lot of people standing in the room, many of them dressed as guards. Zhou Jing saw the person sitting on the main seat at a glance, a middle-aged man who was not angry and arrogant, wearing a crown on his head.
"This is the king?"
Zhou Jing thought for a moment, and after looking at it for a while, his eyes subconsciously swept left and right, and found that there were several personal guards standing beside the king, all wearing the same style of steel armor, covered with royal family's coat of arms, quite exquisite.
One of them is quite conspicuous. She is the only female in the guards. She has long curly hair of lake green, tied behind her head. She looks about 30 or 40 years old. She has fair skin and still has charm. .
Before walking in, the female bodyguard had been staring at a dwarf not far away, but it was the Imperial Hunter Commander Kreber, who was also present.
While he was observing, the owner of the workshop next to him quickly stepped forward, saluted the king, and introduced:
"Your Majesty the King, this is Bill... Bill, this is the King of Terra Empire, glorious Tarn blood, His Majesty Becky Tarn!"
"Uh, how are you, King?"
Zhou Jing pretended to be in a hurry, imitating the workshop owner, and performed a lame etiquette.
Seeing this, Becky smiled, stood up from her seat, stretched out her palm as a welcome gesture, and said calmly:
"Don't be rude, please take a seat Bill."
The attendants came up to serve, and everyone took their seats.
There were no other court ministers present, but the workshop owner introduced a few important people to Zhou Jing, and everyone nodded to Zhou Jing.
Soon, the workshop owner introduced the two people Zhou Jing had noticed before.
"...This is the commander of the Imperial Hunter, Crabbe, one of only two quintuplets in the Empire."
Kreiber smiled and showed goodwill towards Zhou Jing: "This is the first time we meet, let's communicate more in the future."
We're old acquaintances...but that's in Jason's name.
It's Bill's identity now, and it's the first time I've met him. Naturally, people don't recognize his true face after the apostle's disguise.
Zhou Jing smiled secretly, pretending to say hello.
At this time, the workshop owner looked at the previous female bodyguard, coughed, and said, "This is the chief guard of the royal family, Irene Tarn, she is another five-time alien blood enhancer in the empire."
Zhou Jing's eyes moved.
It was her.
These days, Zhou Jing has inquired about it, another five-time strengthener of the empire is called this name, and it is a member of the Tarn family... I just don't know if it is the king's sister or sister.
Irene nodded slightly at him, but said nothing.
Zhou Jing took the initiative to speak: "Hello, Captain Irene."
"Well." Irene's tone was calm, her charming face was expressionless, rather cold.
Getting a response, Zhou Jing quietly opened the panel and used detection.
The next moment, Irene's attributes are displayed on the panel.
[Attributes: physical strength 80 (second-order ax), resistance 70, perception 50, spirit 22, energy 15]
"The sum of all attributes is higher than that of Kleber, but the sum of physical resistance is not as good as that of Kleber." Zhou Jing made a simple calculation.
The two strongest men in the entire Terra Empire are in this room.
I don't know who will win... let's vote for Crabbe.
Zhou Jing detected the king again, and the results obtained were not ordinary people, and had the level of first strengthening.
After a brief introduction, Becky said:
"Bill, I heard about your talent, when did you find out that you have it?"
"A long time ago, when I was a child..."
Zhou Jing calmed down and talked about the speech he had prepared.
This time the king came to meet in person. On the one hand, it was to get to know the talented people, and on the other hand, it was also an inspection. Most of the time, Becky asked, and Zhou Jing answered.
Fortunately, I didn't take a surname this time. It's okay to deal with others, but it's impossible to deal with the king.
The origin he made up for himself was that he was born in a village, which has now been destroyed by alien beasts. The name of the village is a rumor that Jason heard during his travels, because the villagers were scattered and scattered, and it was difficult to go again. Evidence of his identity.
At the moment, no one in the room suspects anything, which is not uncommon.
While the king was observing him, Zhou Jing was also observing the king. Becky was not the kind-hearted type. He was full of energy and majesty, but he did not feel oppressive. He was a very powerful person. , making people sit upright in front of him involuntarily.
Although the other party is only the ruler of a primitive country, Zhou Jing felt the so-called superior aura for the first time... He is just an ordinary person in the main world, except for watching the news of the heads of countries on TV, in his life Never had contact with such a powerful figure.
In addition, Zhou Jing was also observing to see if there were alien lifeforms among the people present, but unfortunately he didn't find that unique temperament, either it was nobody, or it was too well hidden.
After chatting for about ten minutes, Becky got a general understanding of Zhou Jing's "situation", no longer asked questions, changed the topic, and encouraged:
"Your talent is a gift from nature and has extraordinary meaning. Don't waste your talent."
"I have always been willing to serve the empire." Zhou Jing said with interest.
Becky nodded: "Well... maybe in a few days, the empire needs you to participate in some important research. Before that, I hope you can focus on the alien blood potion. If you need it, feel free to mention it."
Is this a sign that I don't need to fix my energy potion anymore? Zhou Jing's heart moved slightly.
Speaking of which, what is the important research that the king specifically said, is it the more secret and core "cutting-edge technology" according to the workshop legend?
"What kind of research?" Zhou Jing asked directly.
Becky pondered and said slowly:
"It's okay to tell you now, the Empire has been trying to research several new types of alien blood potions, one is a compound potion, which combines the enhancement of multiple alien beasts into one potion.
The second one is the special alien blood potion, which can inherit the special abilities of some alien beasts, such as fire breathing, electric discharge and so on.
The third type is the mild alien blood potion. Today's alien blood enhancement effect is very good, but it is too easy to cause death. Every year, a large number of hunter apprentices who have painstakingly trained die in vain. Maybe you can try to weaken the effect of the potion, and divide the enhancement of one enhancement into multiple enhancements to reduce the mortality rate and allow ordinary people to use it safely. In this way, although the hunters have become weaker, the number of hunters will skyrocket unprecedentedly, and no one will be killed suddenly, and there may be no need to fear the threat of alien beasts in the future. "
Speaking, Becky's face showed a look of emotion, as if pity for those who died violently due to the alien blood potion.
Hearing this, Crabbe couldn't help sighing: "Yeah, too many great boys endure loneliness and pain in order to become hunters, and train hard year after year, but in the end they didn't set foot on the battlefield against alien beasts. I just died in vain in the reinforcement process. After years of training and anticipation, I can only exchange for a violent death. Every time I look at their dead bodies, I feel extremely sad."
Zhou Jing nodded silently.
Although I don't know if it's true, he still respects people with ideals.
Although the goal is still to seek benefits, there is nothing wrong with using the special advantages of the apostles to do some good things that change the world.
Becky didn't go on, turned to look at Irene, and said, "Choose two powerful and reliable guards, follow Bill, and follow his orders in the future to protect his safety."
"Got it." Erin nodded.
Zhou Jing blinked.
Is this setting up the guards for me?
This is the first time I've been treated like this.
As for whether it's surveillance, it's also possible... If you want to meet Jason again, I'm afraid it's hard to avoid people.
But now that Bill is on the right track, he won't have to have frequent contact with Jason in the future.
After the meeting, King Becky encouraged Zhou Jing a few more words, and then led the guards away.
"Bill, work hard in the future, don't let the king down."
The workshop owner smiled and patted Zhou Jing's shoulder.
The rest of the workshop executives also smiled and were quite enthusiastic.
It is an honor to discover talents like Bill, who as sponsors.
After today, Bill has received the attention of the king. As long as there is no mistake in the future, he will surely achieve prosperity, and they will naturally not let this relationship cool down.
Zhou Jing expressed his thanks in a formulaic circle, secretly thinking about Bill's next move.
It is imperative to join the research of "core technology".
Not only to learn these important knowledge, but also if I can really research a new blood potion, I don't know how big the impact will be. This is a result that can spread to the entire empire.
Maybe you don't even have to do your life goals. The information particles explode in a wave and directly incarnate as eternal apostles. This is another "clearance route".
As for the tribal independence strategy, I still have to find an opportunity to tell the royal family that Zhou Jing currently has a good view of the empire and is more inclined towards it.
However, this matter is not suitable to speak with Bill's identity. Perhaps after Bill has stabilized his current position and made research results, he can find a way to introduce Jason to the royal family and let Jason speak.
By the way, use the status of one apostle to elevate the status of another apostle and help each other.
Just as Zhou Jing was thinking about it, Kreiber walked up and greeted with a smile:
"Bill, it's up to you in the future, I hope the hunters can use the new potion you developed."
"I work hard." Zhou Jing nodded: "By the way, do you have any plans to strengthen it six times? If there are results in the future, I can use it for you."
"I have an old bone, so I won't continue to strengthen it." Crabbe smiled and shook his head, suddenly curious: "By the way, I heard that you have a good relationship with one of our hunters."
"It's Jason, yes, he and I are old acquaintances. When I first came to the capital, he helped me a lot."
Zhou Jing said something serious.
"Jason also often talks about you, saying that you are a talent and always remember the things you did to treat him."
No, I'm pretty sure I didn't say that...
Zhou Jing is also not good at exposing each other's social interactions, so he can only smile.
"You can come to him more in the future."
Kreiber patted Zhou Jing on the shoulder.
"I will." Zhou Jing shifted the topic and asked curiously, "By the way, you and Irene have both been strengthened five times. Who is more powerful?"
"It's hard to say, I'm better in strength and defense, and Irene is stronger in speed and perception."
Kreiber doesn't seem to want to compete.
"Okay, I'm in the station. If you encounter anything, just find me." He smiled at Zhou Jing, said goodbye and left without saying any more.
Zhou Jing looked at his leaving figure, thoughtfully.
He found that when facing "intellectuals" like himself, Kreiber was not so bold as he treated hunters, with courtesy and courtesy.
"It seems that there is still a difference in identity. Although I am a person who makes alien blood potions, I can get the respect of the hunter group, but I still can't get the identity of the hunter group like Jason. Zhou Jing thought to himself.
……
After meeting the king, two royal guards accepted the order the next day and became their bodyguards, following them wherever they went.
Zhou Jing got to know them for a while, and found that both of them have the level of secondary reinforcement, which is enough to show the importance of the royal family~IndoMTL.com~ However, he still works in the Imperial Hunter Workshop, and he has not been recruited for the time being. Shout out to join the "core technology" research.
On the third day after getting the two guards, an uninvited guest came to the workshop in person and asked to see Zhou Jing.
Zhou Jing walked into the reception room of the workshop and saw a fat strange man at a glance.
"Who are you?"
Zhou Jing asked curiously.
Hearing this, the fat man stood up unhurriedly, stretched out his big hand covered with gemstones towards Zhou Jing, and showed a fat smile that was quite friendly.
"Hello, I'm the King's Privy Councillor, Roman."
Are you Roman? !
Zhou Jing was refreshed.
After working in the capital for so long, I finally met this behind-the-scenes careerist!
He shook hands with it, and subconsciously used the panel to detect the other party's attributes.
The next second, the panel displays information.
[Attributes: Physical 24, Resistance 68, Perception 90, Spirit 96, Energy 108]
Zhou Jing: (°ー°〃)
