Chapter 575 All Responsibilities Are in Hell
In Jaina's young heart, her teacher is a great person who is as pure and kind as an angel. Not only is she beautiful, smart, and kind, but she is also full of power.
I finally managed to escape, but I fainted when I ran to the castle covered in wounds. When Jaina woke up, she had been rescued by Isabelle.
Although she was grateful for Isabel's help, Jaina had to confess to her that she was not an ordinary escaped slave. She escaped after injuring the buyer when she was about to be sold.
For slave traders, this was an absolute capital crime, and they had to capture the slaves and torture and kill them severely before they could give an explanation to the buyers.
In Jaina's opinion, she couldn't let the angel-like Isabel get implicated.
However, Isabel simply said: "Those slave traders have been here before, and your problem has been solved. Don't worry, they dare not trouble you again."
Jaina never expected to hear these words. Those terrible slave traders would actually let her go? I wonder what price this kind sister paid? Later, Jaina learned that Isabelle didn't pay anything at all. She just bought her at the lowest price, and those slave traders didn't dare to say a word.
Because Isabelle was a famous alchemist, and the former owner of this castle was an even greater being, a great man that Jaina would never be able to reach in her life.
But Jaina didn't expect that after only studying with Isabel for a few days, she would meet the legendary big man.
Is this the legendary Ultraman Master? In Jaina's eyes, Amber was the most powerful slave owner. Others only sold people, but he could sell gods.
Even the Duke of Washington, who claimed to have sold hundreds of thousands of slaves, could not compare with this man.
The more she thought about it, the more scared Jaina became. She could only hide behind Isabelle and tremble, making Isabelle feel embarrassed.
She had originally wanted to introduce her own student to Amber. If she could get guidance from this master, it would be the best opportunity for Jaina, but for some reason the little girl was afraid.
Isabel couldn't understand it either. Her teacher was so approachable and humble, so he should be very popular with children. When she first saw her teacher like this, she thought he was definitely a very easy-going person.
This kid really doesn't know how to seize opportunities.
Isabel had no choice but to focus on chatting with Amber.
Isabel was no longer the ignorant apprentice she was before. After listening to Amber Xiu's conversation for a few sentences, she almost guessed his thoughts and suggested, "Teacher, if you want to recruit the middle and lower levels of the Alchemy Association, this kind of gathering is a bit inappropriate."
Amber asked: "Why do you say that?"
Isabel explained, "The Alchemy Association has too many members, and they are spread all over the place. Although I know some of them, you want to pass on the message through gatherings, which will be very inefficient. Moreover, most of them are very loyal to the Alchemy Association. Many people will guess your thoughts, and some of them will definitely remind the top leaders of the Alchemy Association, which will further hinder the spread of the message."
There aren't many high-level members in the Alchemy Association, and most of them are in the royal capital. It's not difficult to invite them over, but it's more troublesome with the middle and lower levels because they are the backbone of each alchemy factory and generally can't get away.
"But they all have magic mirrors. When you left, the Alchemy Association increased its investment in magic mirrors. Almost every alchemist has one. The Alchemy Association also communicates with each other through this thing. If you want to release any news, it will be faster to use the magic mirror."
Amber shook his head and said, "I know this, but I don't want Gustavo Flynn to know that I can control the magic mirror at will."
The magic mirror currently used by the Alchemy Association is a product of their own making. In theory, it is two different systems from the one made by Ambershu. They are unrelated to each other and should be unable to communicate with each other.
Of course, this is only in theory.
The core of the magic mirror is in the kingdom of the god of alchemy, and Amber has long been integrated with the real body of the magic mirror. The state of the spirit in the mirror gives him the ability to control any magic mirror at any time, whether it is the magic mirror of the Alchemy Association, the magic mirror developed by Ryan, or the magic mirror made by the devils of hell.
But it’s better not to expose this secret immediately. Amber Xiu still wants to keep it as a trump card.
If Gustavo Fring was forced to use the magic mirror, he might just throw it away.
Isabel didn't expect Amber to say that. She pondered for a moment, then asked, "Teacher, the Alchemy Association has added a lot of functions to their own magic mirror, such as recording experiments, automatically organizing data, etc. You should be able to modify the functions of the magic mirror at will. If you modify it in my name, it shouldn't be easy to attract their attention."
"That's a good suggestion. Let me think about it. Isabel, how do the members of the Alchemy Association level up?"
Amberxiu began to think about how to achieve his goal. He wanted to make these alchemists dissatisfied with their current situation, and then destroy the Alchemy Association's current promotion channels and classes. To do that, he needed to understand the promotion channels first.
Isabel was very familiar with these things. After her detailed introduction, Amberxiu's inner thoughts were almost formed.
Because the Alchemy Association is now affiliated with the Dwarf Kingdom, the rules have changed from the past.
The association's alchemists were divided into four simple levels: apprentice, junior, intermediate, and senior. Needless to say, apprentices were half-servants who didn't need any money and were exploited and did odd jobs at will.
But being an apprentice requires connections. No alchemist would be willing to accept you without spending money to find connections.
Apprentices have no human rights, and how much they learn depends entirely on their teacher's mood and their own intelligence.
But there is a way out for apprentices, that is to take the formal alchemist exam, and pass it to become a junior alchemist. This exam is very simple for Amber Xiu, but it is as difficult as ascending to heaven for most apprentices.
This is to blame those alchemists who like to keep their skills secret. In order to ensure that their skills are not leaked, they seldom teach the real things. If you want to learn the relevant basics by yourself, firstly, it is difficult to find textbooks, and secondly, what is written in the textbooks may not be correct.
It's like a book on pharmacy written by someone, which only tells you what ingredients are used in the recipe, but gloats over details such as proportions and configuration techniques. It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to learn by themselves.
After becoming a junior alchemist by chance, one can apply to learn more advanced knowledge. This is clearly marked in the Alchemy Association, and what level of alchemist can exchange points for what knowledge is listed in great detail.
But a lot of the knowledge in it is limited. You can only learn it by yourself and cannot spread it. You have to sign a contract before learning it. There are also various restrictions to reduce the spread of this knowledge.
From beginner to intermediate, there is still an exam, and the difficulty increases by dozens of times. However, an intermediate alchemist can be the supervisor of an alchemy factory, and the income at this time is quite good.
As for further promotion, it is not an exam, but rather a requirement to provide resources to the Alchemy Association, hand in alchemical products, exchange points for work, or contribute new formulas and processes that one has researched to the association.
Senior alchemists can receive support from the association and can host large-scale alchemy projects and earn commissions from them. At this time, they will not be short of money in life, but it may not be enough to support continued research.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
As for going further up, they are the council members of the Alchemy Association, then the vice president and the president.
If you want to become a decision-maker, you need to be nominated by the current parliament members and then voted through to join. The president also has a veto power.
Simply put, Gustavo Fring holds the power of the entire Alchemy Association and uses knowledge as shackles to lock up those who pursue knowledge.
Amberxiu carefully studied the number of members of the Alchemy Association. The apprentices could not be counted because they were not on the list at all. There were 28,000 junior alchemists. This was the old number left over from the Alchemy City. Most of them were not qualified to live in that ascended city, but they escaped.
There are only more than 700 intermediate alchemists left, and less than 50 senior alchemists. As for the senior members of the Alchemy Association, there are only nine including Gustavo, and only three of them are at the legendary level.
This is the personnel composition of the Alchemy Association, and Amber's eyes are on the junior and intermediate alchemists.
"It's too easy to get promoted just by taking an exam. Isabel, you reminded me that I don't actually need you to show up in person to attract attention. I just need to do this..."
Amberxiu waved his hands in the air, and various lights and shadows began to appear on the surface of the magic mirror, eventually converging into a special icon.
Isabel looked at the strange icon. It was a burning mirror, very hellish in style, and there was a sentence underneath the icon.
Isabel subconsciously recited the words: "Mirror, mirror, tell me?"
As soon as she said this, the icon instantly enlarged, covering the entire mirror surface. A devil with flames all over his body appeared in front of Isabel and said in a seductive voice: "Mortal, what do you want to ask?"
Isabel was stunned for a moment, then casually asked a question related to alchemy.
The devil laughed strangely and replied, "Knowledge needs to be exchanged for knowledge. If you can answer my question, I will tell you the answer. If not, you need to exchange your soul."
Isabel was shocked by this answer. She asked in surprise: "Teacher, are you serious?"
The devil disappeared, and Amber Xiu appeared on the mirror again. This time he said with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, I don't really want to take their souls, but if I give something away for free, people will only suspect that there is something wrong.
"And demons are very obedient to contracts, and everyone knows that. They won't doubt that the knowledge they have acquired is false; they will only worry about whether they can pay the price.
“Spread the news. When night falls and the sun sets, recite that sentence to the magic mirror, and you can summon the most knowledgeable devil in hell. You can get all the knowledge you want from him, but you have to pay a little price.
"I will allow a large number of junior and mid-level alchemists to be promoted, but the Alchemy Association simply does not have enough positions to accommodate them. If those alchemists who have paid a heavy price find that they cannot get the corresponding benefits after being promoted, then my goal will be achieved."
With a bang, Amber Xiu turned into a devil again and said with a smile: "They will only think that the devil from hell cracked their magic mirror, but when they want to stop it, they find that everyone can't leave the magic mirror. They can't resist the temptation of easily obtaining knowledge! "Besides, all the responsibility lies with hell, and it has nothing to do with you and me."
