    Anna suddenly stopped, waiting for the devil to look over in doubt, she said: "If you do something with Hansen now, I will definitely not be able to stay in the Mage Association."

    Rothgar fixedly looked at Anna, and then said displeasedly for a long time: "I won't move him for the time being."

    Anna smiled gratefully, and then leaned in and said in a low voice: "The main reason is that something happened to him at this time. We are the first suspects, no matter what happened to him. After a while, no one will think of it, everyone. I thought it was over, it wouldn't be too late to beat him up."

    Rothgar's mind moved slightly, and Anna's cunning little appearance at this moment really suits him.

    "So?" Seeing that she still had something to say, he took the initiative to ask questions.

    Anna smiled cautiously: "So, in order to make them think that this has really passed, I will accept the York family's apology on our behalf?"

    Thinking of the faces of the people in the affairs department, Rotgar didn't want Anna to go back to suffer, but he himself was not willing to go back, so his face sank after hearing Anna's proposal.

    Anna noticed the devil's sinking face, and her heart became even more nervous, but considering her situation, she still boldly said: "It's just a moment of tolerance, and we will always find opportunities to retaliate against him in the future. Presumably Hansen Knowing some of your temper, wouldn’t you think you’d let him go like this, wouldn’t it be more interesting to let him live in the fear of being retaliated by you for a long period of time?”

    After listening to Anna's words, Rothgar couldn't help laughing.

    She is unreserved of her family and friends, people she recognizes, and she is not soft to those who harm her. The mental torture is more disintegrating than the physical torture. He really appreciates her viciousness.

    "Then you go," Rothgar said. "If they bully you, call me."

    Anna nodded quickly: "Okay!"

    She turned around and said to Natalie, who hadn't heard what the two were talking about, after she had something to go into the affairs department, she went back.

    Natalie saw the two of them muttering for a long time before, knowing that they didn’t want her to hear what they were talking about. She was a bit stunned and thought it was normal. Anyway, she couldn’t help with anything. It would be nice if she didn’t add any confusion. Backed away a bit.

    Now that Anna went back to the affairs department, she was worried. After Anna entered the door, her eyes remained stuck on the door.

    Seeing Anna going back and forth, the few people who were talking about stopped at the same time.

    Anna didn't notice the intimacy between them, and smiled: "I will accept York House's apologies on behalf of the three of us. Master Raymond needs a little fresh air and waits outside."

    At this time, the servants of York House had packed all the apology gifts that were knocked down by the devil and put them back in the box. Anna took a look and decided to accept them for the sake of the overall situation!

    "What do you mean by Master Raymond?" Butler William asked hesitantly.

    "Yes, you can go out and ask if you don’t believe me. He’s still waiting for me outside." Anna said, "I’m not wasting time to speak up. What I just said is true, so like Master Raymond has always been Generous people will be so angry. Yesterday’s situation, you can confirm with Mage Lyon, he even personally healed Mage Raymond. You may have heard that Mage Raymond and Mage Lyon have always been incompatible with each other, if it’s not here. At the moment of life and death, Mage Raymond will never accept the help of Mage Lyon. Therefore, we can accept your apology, but hope that your house can restrain Hansen so that he will not appear in front of Mage Raymond again. This is for us Both are good."

    "Yes, you are very pertinent." Butler William said quickly. Compared with Mage Raymond, Mage Anna is so good to talk. He thought he could not complete the task today, so he gave the servant a job. With a wink, the servant handed the box he was holding to Anna. He smiled and said, "Then, thank you and Lord Raymond for accepting our apology. Your generosity and kindness are admirable."

    Anna took the box calmly and nodded faintly: "It's better to have multiple friends than multiple enemies, so goodbye, I wish you a happy life."

    Anna walked steadily out of the affairs department without feeling the weight of the box in her hand at all.

    Seeing her back disappear behind the closed door, butler William suddenly asked in a low voice: "You just said that this Master Anna is still a civilian?"

    They were talking about it just before Anna came in.

    The Samsung Mage of the Ministry of Affairs said: "Yes, I think you should feel the same as me. She is not like a commoner. In fact, she only came to Black Cloud City half a month ago. Maybe she used to be a nobleman in a certain city. Miss, for some reason, she ran away from home and kept her name incognito."

    "Fortunately, she is here, otherwise..." Butler William sighed and didn't say any more, but everyone understood the unfinished words.

    Just like the appearance of Master Raymond, I'm afraid it won't be a bloody storm to stop.

    Anna walked out of the affairs department holding the box, and walked to the devil and Natalie in two steps.

    "I think it would be too cheap for the Yorks to give them some blood, so I will accept this for you." Anna said.

    The things in this box are still a bit greedy, but the worst thing after being framed by Hansen is the demon who protected them. It hurt Raymond's body. These things should be paid to the Raymond family.

    However, if the devil had to give it to her, how could she refuse? These things have not passed through the hands of the devil, she is also a member of the beast hunted down, to use a little bit as a mental damage expense can't be too much? And Natalie should also be divided into such a small portion, everyone was frightened.

    Anna was still wondering if she could get a few gold coins, whether she didn't have to do tasks to earn assessment fees, she saw the devil took the box, and then turned away.

    ...No, is this leaving now? You are not even polite to share a point with her? Is this his attitude of pursuing people!

    Anna is a very reasonable person. It shouldn't be her money. She is embarrassed to take the initiative to ask for it. When she thinks of the bloody appearance of the demon yesterday, she feels that this box should be compensation for him.

    She quickly adjusted her mentality and figured out which task to start earning the first pot of gold. Her current principal is only dozens of silver coins, and she can't afford many tasks that require early investment, such as most potion prefabrication and preparation tasks. But at the moment, she doesn’t need to spend the principal to get the potion material task of playing Warcraft. She doesn’t have the ability to do it herself. She can only win by holding the devil’s thigh, but his mental power is now damaged, and maybe he won’t be able to recover until he is upgraded. Take her to the line of life and death.

    Of course Rothgar knew that Anna was short of money, and he also saw the look in Anna's sad eyes when she handed out the box. He was shaken for a moment and wanted her to accept it, but when she thought of that, she would not be short of money. , And he didn't need him to take her to the life and death line to fight potions to earn task rewards, so he changed his mind.

    Anna still has no money.

    When the three people walked to the service desk, Rotgar gave the box to Tereza quite casually, let her take care of it, and then went to the cafeteria for dinner with Anna and Natalie.

    Rothgar is more and more reluctant to bear this body now, and never before has progressed as smoothly as this time. Otherwise, he would have left this body a long time ago and went straight to kill Hansen. Even if he grabbed Hansen and killed him in front of the entire York family, what could they do with him?

    But he really couldn't bear the goodwill he got from Anna as Raymond.

    When eating in the cafeteria, Natalie couldn't help but quietly pay attention to the "Raymond" mage. When she saw him eating civilian food without any disgust, she couldn't help but secretly startled.

    Even if she had to eat in the cafeteria at first, she went through a psychological struggle, Master Raymond is really admirable!

    Anna took it calmly.

    Perhaps because the devil is not a human being, she definitely knows the class of the human world, but she doesn't care. She has seen him eat with a different body, and she really doesn't choose what to eat, so she is very easy to feed.

    After the three of them had lunch, Anna planned to make money. She gave Natalie the mission of going to the meditation room to master spells, and sent the devil to the Raymond family carriage to ask him to go home. Of course, she did not forget to serve. Take the box he deposited on the stage.

    "Raymond, you can't see your face, paler than paper." Anna tried to persuade the demon who seemed to faint at any time to get into the carriage and go home. "If your condition gets worse because of me, I will be very upset. Please go back and rest soon, your body will get better soon before you can take me to the line of life and death again."

    It makes sense for Rothgar to think about it. If he insists on it, the weak human body will only get worse and worse, and he really needs to rest now.

    Rothgar, who is satisfied with today’s progress, nodded and said goodbye to Anna: "See you tomorrow."

    Seeing the carriage that the devil was riding in, Anna went back to the association's service hall to confirm the task in the taskbar again.

    She wrote down the long-term task of pre-processing certain vines and grasses issued by the two-star mage, and asked Trisha: "Was that master Dawkins still harvesting the pre-processed vines and grass extracts for a long time?"

    Mage Association Master of Knowledge, Teresa smiled: "Yes, this long-term mission has been put out for two years. Mage Dawkins still asks me once a week if anyone can answer him. He always complains to me. The new potion will consume at least fifty extracts, for which he has to spend five full days preparing it, and he is very distressed."

    She said that she winked at Anna playfully: "Mage Anna, don't look at the low compensation that Mage Dawkins gives. In fact, he is a very kind and generous person, but his funds are limited."

    Anna smiled. It seems that it is very reliable to make this as the first pot of gold.

    "When did Mage Dawkins complain last time?" Anna asked. She plans to practice the preparation of the extract by herself. If it succeeds, the effect is good and the efficiency is high enough, then she will contact the Master Dawkins and talk to him in person.

    Tereza said knowingly: "He would come to me every Saturday at noon. It was the extract he had made for five days and nights, and had to end the experiment with the new potion."

    Anna saw that today is Friday, she will try to confirm her abilities this afternoon, and she can stay here tomorrow.

    Tereza suddenly looked at Anna's side and smiled: "Mage Leon, are you back?"

    Anna tilted her head and saw Leon holding a piece of paper in her hand and handed it to Tereza: "Yeah. Please help me to register and ask Master Samuel to come to me. In addition, are there any new introductory courses for the association recently? ?"

    "No new members have joined recently, Mage Leon." Tereza took the task list, registered it expertly, and said, "Mage Samuel should come to the association in the afternoon. I still tell him you are in the meditation room. ?"

    "Well, the meditation room on the first floor." Leon said.

    After Tereza registered, Leon looked at Anna and smiled: "Anna."

    Anna was a little happy to see Leon. He rescued them yesterday. Seeing his life and dust, he should have just returned from the line of life and death.

    "Mage Leon, you are back safely too, great." Anna laughed.

    Leon smiled: "I accidentally heard your conversation just now, so I was rude. If you want to pre-treat wattle grass, I know a little trick can improve efficiency. You first use fire to crisp its skin, and then use water. The extraction time can be reduced when the elements are processed."

    Anna's eyes lit up and she said gratefully: "Thank you very much, I will try it!" She said with some embarrassment, "I have reported the matter yesterday to the Ministry of Affairs, and the York family has already made compensation. Maybe the Ministry of Affairs later I will also ask you to verify some information. I'm very sorry to trouble you."

    "You don't need to be so polite, you should." Leon smiled, "You...you are fine."

    Anna then asked Lyon for some academic questions, and then left unconsciously.

    She went to the pharmacy, and first went to the materials department to buy a silver coin of wattle grass. If it is not wasted, the wattle grass of this silver coin can be used for ten extracts and sold for fifty silver coins. The grass itself is not worth it. High, but because of the trouble of preprocessing, Master Dawkins gave a reward of 20 gold coins.

    One silver coin can earn fifty silver coins, which is not attractive to the wizards who are not short of money in their own family. After all, it takes too much time, and their time is very valuable. But for Anna, it is a great thing. She is only an apprentice to a mage. She can only spend time to exchange money. When she becomes a high-level mage in the future, she will definitely spend money to buy time.

    There is a detailed record of how to pre-process the wattle grass in "The Basics of Potions". Anna tried one or two times before, but because she didn't think carefully about whether there is a way to shorten the time, it took a lot of time.

    And this afternoon, she is here to test whether she can reduce the preprocessing time and improve efficiency, so that she can increase the productivity per unit time.

    The first is to use the method that Leon said, pretreat the vitex grass with the fire element, and then squeeze and extract it with the water element.

    Because each extract will form a small system on its own, coupled with limited mental power and limited controllable elements, these extracts cannot be stewed in one pot, only one portion can be made.

    Anna knows that her mental power is stronger than that of ordinary mage apprentices. She has secretly compared with Natalie. Natalie can use the water wave technique ten times without stopping, and then she will feel tired. Considering that Natalie's talents are not good, then the number of times a normal apprentice wizard uses the first-level spells should be between fifteen and twenty times.

    And now, she didn't feel much after using the first-level spells twenty times, and she would only feel tired after using them fifty times or so. But if one mind and two uses, two elementary spells are used at the same time, or the spells used by a general one-star wizard, then she can use it about fifteen times.

    After processing an extract, Anna looked at the time, it took a total of forty-five minutes, which saved a lot of time.

    Then she felt her mental power. If she continued to pre-process, she could probably process fifteen times in a row, and it took nearly twelve hours to make fifteen extracts.

    And an ordinary apprentice mage can only deal with it up to six times in a row, and it has to rely on meditation to return to the blue. In other words, you can only earn 30 silver coins a day, and you can’t even afford an empty crystal. No wonder no one wants to be a coolie. After all, Master Kings is just a two-star wizard, not a powerful person. .

    What Anna tried next was to make two extracts at the same time. She has two hands, and she always feels at a loss if she doesn't use them together.

    The first time did it at the same time, because of a moment of distraction, a piece of wattle was burned by her fire element.

    The second time did it at the same time, the first step is the fire element crisp burning is no problem, but after the water element extraction, because the two sides are different, it is a bit difficult to really do one mind and two use, Anna still failed, and almost fried the beaker. .

    The third time it was done at the same time, there was still a problem with the extraction step, but it was much better than the second time.

    The fourth time, it still failed.

    For the fifth time, there were not enough wattle grasses, so Anna spent another silver coin and bought ten more cut wattle grasses, and continued to try.

    When the wattle grass bought for the second silver coin finally ran out, Anna was already sweating on her forehead, and her mental energy was about to be overdrawn, but luckily, she succeeded in the last two times.

    She can spend forty minutes to make two wattle extracts, and her mental power is enough for her to process ten times in a row, which is 20 portions of wattle grass. In total, she can earn one gold coin in less than seven hours.

    This business is so easy to do, it's not profitable.

    Anna temporarily stored the prepared wattle grass extract in the pharmacy management office, free of charge. No matter how small a mosquito is, it is meat. One part is worth five silver coins. Of course she can't throw it away. The shelf life of these extracts is longer than that of the manufactured potions. If the environment is not extreme, they can be stored for about a week. Therefore, Master Dawkins can make them for five days and use them together after making fifty copies.

    Anna dragged her exhausted body to the meditation room and met with Natalie. After asking about her training situation today, she briefly reviewed the situation with her, and then went home separately.

    And it wasn't until she opened the door of her room with a yawn and saw Eppe lying on the meditation mat in large font, that Anna remembered that she had picked up a bear child last night.

    Eppe didn't react much to the sound of opening the door. He just raised his eyelids and looked down at Anna, and said weakly, "Why did you come back? Why didn't you have any food in your room? I starved to death!"

    Anna was a little apologetic, after all, she had completely forgotten the boy, she even forgot to buy something for herself.

    "You wait, I'll go out to buy food." Anna didn't enter the door, she just turned around and left, but before closing the door, she turned around and said, "After coming back, I want to see that you have tied yourself up, otherwise yoursThe food is gone!"

    Anna slammed the door and left. Epp stared at the door and muttered dissatisfiedly: "Who can tie himself to the way he was last night!"

    That said, after Anna left, Epp still picked up the rope, twisted his eyebrows and recalled how Anna tied him yesterday, making gestures on his ankles.
