Extraordinary Mechanical City

Chapter 75: Isn’t it a necessary skill for an apprentice to master advanced knowledge?

Views:

"This kid...could it be that he has awakened memory-enhanced extraordinary attributes and has the ability to have photographic memory?"

At this moment, Irubek's expression was extremely strange.

He recalled the skillful martial arts and absolute power that Ren had used to subdue Bazel just now, and felt that his idea was ridiculous.

The most important thing for the awakening direction of genetic potion is the rationality of attribute combination.

Strength + cell activity can be barely understood as a melee self-healing super; but if you add "memory enhancement", it seems nondescript.

It's like a long-distance magical awakening to increase the power. This is a completely useless attribute. It consumes the human body's potential out of thin air and does not gain any extraordinary ability. This situation definitely does not occur with high-quality genetic potions.

or.

Is it true, as this kid said, that he has been memorizing the Encyclopedia since he was a child

No matter which possibility it was, Ilubek felt that his assessment would be difficult for him.

Could it be that... I really want to violate the oath that "if I accept another apprentice, I will be stabbed in the anus by the troll with a mace"

When asked, Irubek's face turned as black as coal.

He also didn't expect that his tried-and-true plan of rejecting countless people's plans to become a disciple would actually get him caught up in it.

Renn memorized the previous nine questions word for word. Obviously, there was no point in asking them any more.

But the betrayal of his most proud disciple at that time has made him unable to think of accepting any more disciples. Otherwise, it wouldn't hurt to have one more apprentice in the laboratory.

Old faces and vows, one of them has to be given up.

... .

Irubek turned his eyes and asked again: "Next, the tenth question..."

This time, Renn didn't want the old man to ask endless questions.

He planned to take the initiative by himself, so he interrupted and asked: "Doctor, how many questions do I need to answer correctly in total to be considered a success in the assessment?"

Irubek also felt that his old face was a bit out of control. Usually he could get away with rejecting others with no more than three questions, but this was already the tenth question.

He could only say: "This... this is the last question. As long as you can answer it, you will pass!"

When Ren heard this, he was slightly happy: "Okay!"

Ilubek thought about it and asked a question: "Now, please tell me about the properties of [Dragon Blood Sun Vine]..."

"this... ?"

When Ren heard this, he was stunned.

It's not because he doesn't know how to answer, but because this question... is beyond the scope!

There were absolutely no mistakes in the books scanned by "Zhi Nao". He was very sure that there was no record of this material in the "Basic Encyclopedia of Pharmacy"!

When he said this, he looked at the old man opposite with a strange look in his eyes, and thought to himself: This old guy is so unkind. How much does he not want to be his apprentice

After all, he was playing some trick on his own. Ilubek felt a little guilty because of Ren's look. He forced his old face to explain: "Well... this question is a bit biased. If you don't know... you can... understand... "

Ren's eyes flashed and he asked tentatively: "Doctor, why do I think your question is not within the scope of the Encyclopedia?"

Although he pointed out that the old man deliberately made things difficult for him, he didn't think it was a bad thing.

If you really just want an experimental sample, just say yes.

The more solemn the matter, the higher the gold content of this apprentice!

Ilubek was still arrogant, "Really? Maybe my memory is failing due to old age and I remembered it wrong? Or... maybe you missed it?"

Ren said quietly: "Oh, I think... Doctor, you may have misremembered. I clearly remember that there is no record of this material in the "Encyclopedia"."

"Ahem, maybe I remembered it wrong."

Ilubek coughed dryly to cover up his embarrassment, and then forced himself to explain his additional question, saying: "However, as a doctor apprentice, in addition to talent, being knowledgeable and knowledgeable are also necessary qualities. Anyway... Anyway, this is the question. Come on! If you can answer the last question, you will pass the exam..."

This is obviously another rogue attempt to forcefully increase the difficulty.

God, a new doctor apprentice needs to master this kind of advanced knowledge!

This kind of rare material has not even been heard of by formal potion masters

However, Renne, who had long been confident, felt that playing hard to get was enough. I say all this just to make the old man place all his bets on this last question.

At this time, he didn't say anything, and actually nodded in approval: "Well, I also think what you said is reasonable, doctor. As a doctor apprentice, it should be necessary to have some knowledge in the field of intermediate potion masters. Ability..."

"???"

Hearing these words, Irubek suddenly felt that he had heard wrongly, and looked at the calm young man in front of him with surprise.

I deliberately made things difficult for you, but you actually accepted such ridiculous remarks

But then he thought about it, and the old man had a bad feeling in his heart.

Could it be...that he even knew this

Ren knew that the old man was determined not to give up, so he changed the topic and decided not to give him a chance to make a comeback: "I am not talented, and I happen to read a lot of miscellaneous books. Although I don't understand much, I vaguely remember that this [Dragon Blood Sun Vine] should be It comes from an advanced knowledge book for intermediate potion masters called "Rare Potion Materials"..."

Originally, the "Encyclopedia" tested basic pharmacy in the medical department, not genetic potions. Although the two fields overlapped, they were essentially different.

The threshold for a potionist is much higher than that for a doctor.

Those who can become a pharmacist may not necessarily become a potion master. Less than one in a thousand potion apprentices can be promoted to a formal potion master.

It's probably equivalent to, I'm obviously taking CET-4 with a mixed certificate, but you gave me the exam questions for CET-8

Ren said before that he wanted to be a doctor's apprentice, just ask about basic pharmacy, but now he is involved in the field of intermediate potion master

This question is seriously over the top!

It's a pity that this question can stump a large number of official potion masters, but it can't stump Ren.

Immediately afterwards, he recited the detailed explanation of the material again, leaving the old man opposite completely speechless.

... .

They've even told me where the title of the book comes from, so there's no point in making excuses.

Ilubek was like a lost ball, and he instantly lost all thoughts of making things difficult.

"Hey, I'm old, look at my memory..."

He glanced at Ren with complicated eyes, and his tone didn't sound like he was making excuses, but he really felt like a hero emerges from his youth.

After coming back to his senses, the old man realized that he seemed to have the initiative in the assessment, but in fact, he fell into the opponent's plan step by step. In the Q&A just now, I was unknowingly limited in the scope of content, the number of questions, and the way out.

The boy opposite not only has an amazing memory, but is also very cautious, which is also an essential quality for a good doctor.

Of course, none of this matters anymore, after all, he has passed the assessment.

If it weren't for the original oath, it would be a good choice to have such a disciple with a superb memory as an apprentice.

pity.

That’s all.

If you don’t agree now, it seems you have to agree.

Ilubek was not embarrassing Renn. There was a look of relief on his old face and he said: "Starting from tomorrow, you can come to my laboratory as an apprentice."

"Okay...teacher!"

When Ren heard this, he felt happy and changed his words: "My name is Ren, please give me your advice in the future!"

Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar title, Irubek's turbid eyes were filled with complexity.

teacher

Why.

... .

Renn left Ilubek's laboratory.

He didn't expect that he would gain so much from treating the insect infestation today. With such a super "golden thigh" firmly in hand, the future road will be smooth in an instant.

It was getting late, the light had dimmed, and Ren planned to go back to the hotel to explain to the barbarian girl.

From the sewer area on the ground floor of Mechanical City to the upper level, you still have to walk a long, secluded, narrow alleyway.

This place is suitable for doing some shady things, such as killing people and stealing goods.

Not long after Ren walked out of the laboratory, he stopped.

Then he drank softly into the empty and quiet depths of the dark alley.

"Come out... Mr. Buzzell."
