Last time, that bastard messed things up, and one-twentieth of the monster core reserves were consumed.
Su Qing was heartbroken. If killing this bastard hadn't affected the progress of several research projects, he would have definitely cooked him.
"Research and testing? How can that be called messing around!"
Cargill paused slightly in his movements, and retorted with great dissatisfaction.
Splat!
A claw covered in black scales slammed down on his head, and the chilling gaze sent a shiver down his spine.
A shiver ran through him as Cargil realized that the person in front of him was his lord, the guy who had once treated him like a toy and tormented him.
His expression changed rapidly, and he quickly forced a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, I will absolutely not do anything reckless!"
Su Qing placed one paw on his head, his dark golden dragon eyes narrowed slightly as he glanced at him, his expression shifting: "From now on, all expenses and funding for the research institute must be reported and applied for!"
After saying that, he ignored Cargill's sullen expression and turned to leave.
Although he valued the Alchemy Research Institute highly, Su Qing still decided to put some restrictions on the department. Otherwise, he was really worried that when he came back from this trip, he might be surprised to find that he had gone bankrupt!
Eight students were given a day off to go home, visit their parents, and pack their things before officially setting off the next day.
Su Qing wrote furiously, with Old Sam beside her, carrying some information he had collected.
He wasn't going to waste any time on the journey; young people need more experience and training.
He drew up a map and arranged several training missions to let these young people know what the dangers of society are.
Alice returned home, but it was no longer the same small courtyard as before.
She sent all of her four months' worth of scholarship money home. Her family had moved to a bigger house, and each of her younger siblings had their own room. Her mother no longer had to work so hard every day.
Upon seeing her eldest daughter return, the mother immediately greeted her with a smile.
Although her clothes were no longer patched, they remained simple; frugality was ingrained in this mother's very being.
"Mother!"
A happy smile bloomed on the girl's face. She chatted with her mother for a while, and then went to see her younger siblings.
The children all curiously surrounded the gray pony, looking like they wanted to reach out and touch it, but were too afraid to.
Looking at the children, the gray pony held its head high with arrogance, completely unlike the obedient and sensible demeanor it displayed in front of Alice.
After staying at home for half a day, Alice packed her things and told her mother that she was going to a very far place this time, which would probably take two or three months.
The simple woman's face was full of worry; a mother worries when her son travels a thousand miles.
Although my daughter has been away from home frequently these past few months, at least I know where her college is, which gives me peace of mind.
But this time it was a very, very far place, and the mother couldn't help but worry.
Alice also left home with some reluctance and met up with Fat Vivi on the street.
The chubby little girl changed into a new outfit, but she looked unhappy: "My mother wants me to lose weight again, but how can I possibly lose weight like this!"
He rolled up his sleeves, tensed them tightly, and revealed his muscular arms.
A few thugs with ill intentions saw this scene, swallowed hard, and turned and left without saying a word.
Alice smiled helplessly and pinched her best friend's chubby cheek: "If you ate less fatty meat, you would have lost weight long ago!"
"Then I'd rather not reduce it, it's my only hobby!"
The chubby little girl is very serious, especially when it comes to food.
The two walked side by side, one on horseback and the other on a pig, leaving the city and heading towards the sky castle in the center of the territory.
Once all ten people had arrived, Su Qing tossed out ten backpacks: "One for each of you, put them on!"
Ten backpacks, each about the height of a person, each weighing around 200 pounds.
But for these guys who have undergone four months of grueling training, it's not unbearable.
Su Qing handed them a map: "I've already planned the route. For your own good, I've decided to let you get some more practice!"
Principal Long spoke with righteous indignation, demonstrating his care for the students and his dedication to his duties.
The map ends at a place called Dark Territory.
This region, encompassing the northwestern kingdoms, is a rare territory that exists outside the major kingdoms.
I've heard that the lord is quite powerful, a top-tier high-ranking knight who runs a slave trade.
In fact, this territory was not on their direct route to Gaosuo City; Su Qing deliberately took a detour.
As the future master of the northwestern kingdoms, Su Qing felt it was his duty to punish evil and promote good in the face of such villains.
Furthermore, while the trade in human slaves was utterly evil, it must be admitted that it was a very lucrative business.
It's likely that the Dark Territory has amassed a considerable fortune.
This was also the first trial goal that Su Qing had planned for her students.
"1, 2, 3, let's run!"
After handing the map to these guys, Su Qing soared through the clouds, hovering high in the sky, watching the nine teenagers run forward with great pleasure.
Keep going! It's over a thousand kilometers from here to the Dark Territory.
Su Qing only gave them three days.
Opening her mouth, Little Iris looked at the fruits in her bag, speechless, and took out an apple, placing it near Su Qing's mouth.
Click!
Su Qing ate the apple, looking completely satisfied.
With such a life, what more could one ask for?
