After all, the current Empire was also in a troubled ti.
The Old Emperor was advanced in years, and the Chancellor and Ministers each supported a prince.
The surrounding countries were also glaring like tigers watching their prey.
Especially those barbarians on the northern plateau.
Just now, Nikolai had ntioned that Britt Rats had also appeared dostically...
These matters, one by one, made the entire Empire look like a house full of holes everywhere, leaking air from all sides.
However...
There was also a good side to these two Title Holders.
At the very least, the title 'Title Holder' was indeed very bluffing.
Having two more might slightly deter so people internally.
So that things wouldn't reach the worst-case scenario.
"Right, there's another interesting matter that I think you might be even more interested in."
Just as Albert was frowning and thinking.
A smile appeared on Nikolai's face.
"What is it?"
Albert frowned and looked up at Nikolai.
The other party's smile gave him a sense of crisis.
He felt as if Nikolai was wanting to dig a hole for him.
But he didn't know what it was.
Then...
"Right, I still have so matters to go back to the school to handle. Let's leave it at this for today..."
That's right.
What Albert thought of was leaving.
Since he had already learned everything he wanted to know, then there was no longer any reason to continue strolling in the garden with this guy Nikolai.
Thus, after speaking, Albert imdiately turned around and walked quickly toward the direction of the gate, as if he had made so sort of resolve.
But if he wanted to run, he also had to see if others agreed.
Seeing this, the corners of Nikolai's mouth curled up in a wicked smile.
Following that, he raised his chin and shouted loudly, almost straining his neck.
"Although the black-robed Miss Lan Qingyou and the white-robed Miss Elisa are good friends, they also seem to have so differences."
"So they decided to hold a battle between alchemists three days from now!"
"The location is set at the Imperial Colosseum!"
...
Albert's footsteps stopped.
He stopped just like that, maintaining the motion of taking a step.
The black-robed Miss Lan Qingyou?
The white-robed Miss Elisa?
A battle between alchemists three days from now?
The location is at the Imperial Colosseum?
These words, these questions, instantly lingered in his mind one by one.
— 'If you don't go tomorrow, then I will tell you so news that will keep you from sleeping.'
He imdiately thought of the words Nikolai had used to threaten him earlier.
"Bastard! I already agreed to go, why did you still have to tell these things!?"
Albert turned his head, stepped forward quickly, and grabbed Nikolai by the collar, staring at him with wide, angry eyes.
Must be joking!
A duel between alchemists!
How many years had it been since this kind of thing happened?
Fun, good to watch.
The key was exactly what kind of commotion two free, self-taught alchemists could cause; this point alone was enough for Albert to think about.
Couldn't sleep tonight?
No, he wouldn't be able to sleep for the next three days because of this matter.
Of course, not being able to sleep was still a small matter for him.
The most important thing was that until this matter was settled, it would severely affect his research for these next few days.
Constantly longing for it.
Wanting to watch.
Yet unable to watch it...
"You... probably just agreed for now, right! You never even thought about going tomorrow at all, right!"
Nikolai adjusted his monocle.
Grinning, he didn't care at all about Albert grabbing his collar.
It was just that his row of bright white teeth flashed so brightly it made Albert's eyes hurt a bit.
"No... nothing of the sort."
Seeing his petty thoughts exposed, Albert's previous toughness instantly softened.
Yes.
That was exactly what he had thought.
He inherently disliked those kinds of formal occasions.
As a result, just inquiring about a piece of news ant making himself go join the table?
Dream on.
However, Nikolai didn't play by the rules this ti either, and directly told him the news of the arranged fight.
Now it was great.
Whether it was Nikolai or Albert, both would be unable to sleep because of this arranged fight.
"No! How can such good news only be heard by alone?"
Saying this, Albert let go of Nikolai and turned around again.
"Where are you going?"
"Back to the academy, to tell my colleagues in the Alchemy Departnt about this matter."
Albert turned his head and grinned at Nikolai.
As the saying goes, 'it's better to enjoy together than alone'.
If he couldn't sleep, then others shouldn't think about having an easy ti either.
Although not all alchemists would be unable to sleep upon hearing this news.
But the vast majority would definitely fall for it.
After all, just like Albert thought.
Everyone wanted to watch fun and interesting things.
Especially the research results of two alchemists.
Things that could be brought out for a duel, and brought out in the Colosseum in front of so many people at that.
They were definitely all good things.
As long as it was sothing beneficial to themselves, no matter what kind of alchemist it was, they could accept it.
This was the true ecology of the alchemists on the Karim Continent a thousand years ago.
"Makes sense, then I'll also go see those old colleagues of mine from the workshop. It's been a long ti since we gathered, it's ti to have a drink."
Seeing Albert being so shaless, Nikolai hurriedly followed suit.
After all, in the aspect of pitting people, he truly didn't have as much talent as the other party.
"Then... how about we conveniently call ntor ra over as well?"
Nikolai, drawing inferences, said.
"Ah? ntor ra?"
Albert, not expecting Nikolai to be this ruthless, was stunned for a mont.
"The black-robed Miss used an extrely interesting kind of diagram on a golem to construct it, allowing the golem's output to reach a level where it could be used as a fifth-tier soldier."
Hiss—
Fifth-tier soldier?
Wasn't that the elite of the elites?
Golems were fine for doing miscellaneous chores, but wanting to use them on high-intensity battlefields was simply an impossible matter.
This was a consensus in the alchemy world.
But now soone actually achieved it?
And it was even benchmarked against elites?
Hmm!
Sothing's wrong!!
Out of ten points, there were twelve points of wrongness!!!
He abruptly looked at the guy following behind him walking outward.
Only to discover that the other party's face was hanging a wicked smile!
"Why the fuck did you tell this!"
Albert, who was originally still calculating the strength of the golem, abruptly thought about whether this counted as him being spoiled?
Thus, he unleashed another volley of scolding at Nikolai.
"You're crazy!"
This ti, Nikolai, who was plotting to sche against his ntor and forr colleagues, truly didn't reveal it on purpose.
So after being grabbed by the collar again by Albert, he lost his previous composure.
The Imperial Twin Moons, two middle-aged n in their forties.
Just like that, they started a scuffle without any regard for their image in the luxurious Manor garden.
Those guards, maids, stewards, and gardeners who were originally in the distance all turned their heads away one by one.
Too awful to look at.
Truly too awful to look at.
Or rather, this kind of thing was truly not sothing small people like them should be watching.
And on this side.
Lan Qingyou also followed the group of people sent by the Old Emperor and arrived at the villa...
