The mithril or mithril gold refined by alchemists are both very valuable, but even the best alchemists find it extremely difficult to refine such exquisite aluminum utensils.
Alchemists who can refine aluminum are regarded as treasures by the country.
"We are very sorry, sir. We did not recognize your identity before and had a misunderstanding. We will report your case to His Majesty the King now." The guard saluted.
The guards at the gate could not directly enter the depths of the castle, but with aluminum as a medium, the news that an alchemist was going to the castle to sell aluminum still reached the king's ears.
The country of Andra is not considered wealthy, and the top alchemists will not go to this slightly poor country. This makes it impossible for the king to own an aluminum artifact that proves his highly respected status. He always feels very frustrated when comparing himself with other kings.
And now an alchemist actually delivered aluminum tools to my door!
The king stood up from his throne and asked, "Really? Did the alchemist really say that? Did he say that only I am worthy of such a noble vessel?"
"It's true, Your Majesty," the guard said happily. "They say they are two exquisite aluminum artifacts, not found in other kingdoms."
"My Lord, he must have seen the sincerity of his most sincere people, so he sent this gentleman to bring me aluminum utensils that represent honor. Go and invite him in quickly." The king said excitedly.
"Okay, please wait a moment." The guard excitedly prepared to go and greet him, but he heard the king say behind him, "No, to show respect to Mr. Alchemist, I should go and greet him in person."
The guard stopped, the king adjusted his clothes in front of the mirror and walked out of the palace.
Lin Su was waiting at the door. The box had been tied up again, and the beautiful ribbon looked like a flower. People passing by would occasionally look over here, some with doubts in their behavior, but they would keep walking away.
When the castle gates opened and the procession emerged, a middle-aged man dressed in royal attire saw Lin Su standing at the doorway with the box in his hand and excitedly approached him, "Hello, sir. Are you the distinguished alchemist?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Lin Su saluted naturally like a gentleman.
"As the King of Andhra, I welcome you." The king also saluted and said, "Please follow me."
He made a gesture of invitation, and Lin Su stepped in without hesitation until the box was placed on the table and the ribbon on it was opened again by the king himself.
He stared at the two vessels in amazement and said, "This is truly a gift from God. I have never seen such exquisite vessels."
"Yes, this is the Lord's gift. I originally wanted to give them to you directly, but if I gave them to you directly, I always felt that God would think that his gift was worthless. Your Majesty, please give me the wealth that you think is of equal value." Lin Su said very politely.
In this theological age, rashly fooling the Lord may lead to the devil taking away your soul.
God does exist, but not in this world. 06 detected that God does not exist. What exists is only the power that humans have figured out on their own.
But Lin Su didn't mind using the name of God to achieve his own goals, otherwise this king who didn't seem to be very wealthy would most likely cheat him, otherwise he wouldn't have been praising the utensils without mentioning the price at all.
The king was stunned for a moment and said, "Mr. Alchemist, where on earth is there any wealth that can compare with the Lord's gift?"
06 also began to think that the king wanted to default on his debt, but no one in this world had been born who could default on his debt to the host.
"You have a point, but the Lord has given you such a noble vessel. If you are insincere, He will one day take back everything He has given you." Lin Su bowed again and said, "I believe that with your noble character, you would not do such a thing."
The king was obviously hesitant. These two exquisite aluminum objects were obviously expensive. If he wanted to pay for them, he would probably have to spend a lot of gold coins, which would make his already scarce gold even less. But he really wanted them. If he missed them, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Lin Su finished his greeting and turned to leave. The king quickly reached out to stop him: "Where are you going, sir?"
"Your character needs to be examined by the Lord. I know I can't get those aluminum utensils back, but I wish you good luck." Lin Su looked at him and said, "Such noble utensils could be a gift from the Lord, or they could be a soul-snatching sickle."
There was a hint of spookiness in his words, which made the king's original worry even worse. "It's not that I don't want to pay you gold coins, but the gold coins I pay you may not satisfy you. How about changing the terms?"
Lin Su looked at him for a long while, then sighed and said, "Yes, I want to enter the country of Bird and become a Holy Son of the Church."
"Uh..." The king was obviously stunned for a moment, and his eyes rolled. Although ordinary people did not know what the Son of God was used for, as the ruler of a city, he knew it.
In name, they are recruiting the Son of God, but in fact, they are trying to appease the group of demons from the night. The requirements are sweet blood and beautiful face. Each country has a quota every year, but those who do not meet the standards can be regarded as blasphemy against the Holy See, which will make His Holiness the Pope dissatisfied.
Lin Su asked: "Isn't it possible?"
"Oh, my honorable alchemist, it's not that I refuse to grant you this, but the Holy See requires that the Sons of God must meet God's requirements. They possess the souls of angels and their appearance," the king said, swallowing his saliva. "If you don't mind, I can recommend you to the Holy See to become an alchemist. It's the place closest to God, and I believe you will be able to fully utilize your talents."
In short, this statement means that Lin Su is ugly.
06 Bang Bang Bang patted his chest and promised: [Host, the shell I picked for you is definitely good-looking.]
However, the effect of the recovery potion is a bit slow. It is already quite good for a skinny person to recover to this state in a few days. It is impossible to become a fat man in one breath.
Lin Su still has self-awareness at the moment. All he wants is to enter the Central Church. To enter there, he needs sufficient travel expenses, a letter of recommendation from the king, and the ability to convince others. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him in his current state.
"Okay, in that case, thank you very much. However, as an alchemist, I am not safe on the road. Could you please ask your guards to protect me?" Lin Su gave in.
The king was visibly relieved by his willingness to yield. "Of course, it is our duty to protect the Lord's messenger. I will arrange your carriage and travel expenses until you are guaranteed entry into the Central Church."
