Chapter 495: Hope for the World(2/2)
"Um."
Raymond nodded and said, "Maybe it's worse."
Aldrich's expression became a little solemn, and he immediately guessed something: "So, you may be leaving the Black Sea soon?"
Raymond blinked, trying to lighten the atmosphere, and asked with a smile: "You know?"
Aldrich glanced at him and said in a strange tone: "How can a big man like you, the Eight Endless Emperors, stay in this corner of the Black Sea for a long time? This sea cannot support a big fish like you."
"..."
Raymond shrugged noncommittally. The old man was as shrewd as ever.
As Aldrich spoke, he suddenly let out another long sigh and said: "From the moment you walked in, I guessed that you were not just here to visit me, an old man, but more like to say goodbye. With great power comes great responsibility.
The bigger it is. The big winds and waves on the other side of the Endless Sea, your boy must be involved..."
Upon hearing this, Raymond looked slightly complicated.
My teacher always understands me as a disciple.
Aldrich: "Are you not sure about the Endless Sea?"
Raymond shook his head and said nothing.
The enemy is the entire world government and the mysterious evil god. Who can say what’s the certainty?
Even if he has awakened [Divine Body·Explosive Qi Hai] now, he is not sure at all.
"Why..."
Aldrich glanced at him, sighed slightly, and continued: "Leymon, you are my disciple, but your achievements now far exceed that of a teacher... I am very pleased. The old man can't help now.
I have nothing to do with you, and I have nothing to advise you. I just hope that when you return to the Black Sea next time...if I am still alive, the master and the apprentice can meet again and chat for a few words..."
As soon as the old man said this, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became very sad.
Aldrich took another long breath and said: "Raymon, you must remember that you are the proudest disciple of the teacher in his life. The Black Sea is your home at any time, and the teacher welcomes you home at any time.
.”
"Well, thank you, teacher."
When Raymond heard this, he didn't feel sad.
When my soul travels to another world, I always feel like a stranger in a foreign land, and I never have that sense of belonging to home.
It wasn't until he met Irene, Anna, Aldrich, and Eriksson... that he felt that the world was slowly accepting him, and he was slowly integrating into the world.
The teacher, the confidante, and the genuine care made him feel the kindness of this strange world.
If I hadn't returned to the Black Sea by accident this time, I might never have been able to see this kind old man again in this life.
next time?
perhaps...
Maybe there will be a next time.
...
Aldrich has lived to this age and has a clearer view of many things than Raymond. He wiped the warm tears from the corners of his eyes and suddenly laughed heartily.
He patted Raymond on the shoulder and said: "Don't think about so many unhappy things! It's a rare reunion for our master and apprentice today, so we must have a drink! We won't come back until we get drunk..."
After a pause, the old man was finally able to put down his serious expression and said, "Let's go to the Musketeers and Roses Tavern! It's the one you opened when you were in the capital..."
When Raymond heard these words, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
If he remembered correctly, the "Guns and Roses Tavern" was a famous adult tavern in Tianlan King's capital.
This old man...his heart never grows old.
Unfortunately, before the door could be opened, there was a complaint outside the house.
"Aldrich, you bad old man, what do you want to drink in broad daylight?"
An old man with a red beard came in. He had no intention of knocking politely and pushed open the door of Aldrich's office angrily.
This was obviously an old acquaintance, Aldrich's senior brother, Boggs Knox.
Boggs frowned angrily. He just wanted to put an end to Aldrich's delusion of "promising sex in the daytime". He also wanted to see who instigated his junior brother, who was no longer in good health, to drink alcohol in broad daylight...
But when he saw it, he was stunned.
I thought he was an old guy with "no eyesight", but I didn't expect him to be a young man.
Seeing Boggs's expression of disbelief, Raymond took the initiative to say hello: "Hello, Mr. Boggs, it's nice to see you again."
"you..."
Boggs also had a ghostly expression on his face, "You...are you Raymond?"
Raymond was used to everyone's shocked expressions and nodded: "Yes, Mr. Boggs."
Upon hearing the confirmation, Boggs' eyes also lit up, and he became slightly short of breath.
The old guy Aldrich often talks about his genius disciple in his ears, and his ears are almost ringing. Not only that, in the old guy's bedroom, the newspaper with Raymond's latest reward is printed, and it is also framed.
Get up and you can see it as soon as you enter the door.
Now seeing the legendary "Eight Endless Emperors" disrespectful, can it not make people excited?
Boggs didn't know what to say, so he suddenly changed the subject and said, "Um...I heard you guys are going to drink? Do you mind taking me, an old guy, with you?"
"Hahaha..."
Aldrich laughed loudly and deliberately said: "Humph! My apprentice and I are reminiscing about old times, why are you, an old man, so blindly getting involved?"
Not to be outdone, Boggs said: "Speaking of which, Raymond should also call me uncle. If I invite my nephew to drink, will it bother you, an old guy?"
Seeing that the two old men were about to start a quarrel, Raymond smiled and interrupted: "Senior Boggs, let's talk about drinking later. Now that you are here, I also have something serious to say."
"Oh? Real business?"
After hearing what Raymond said, the two old men suddenly stopped making trouble and their expressions became very cautious.
It's definitely not easy to get this "big man" to say he's serious.
...
At this time, Raymond didn't hesitate, raised his hand and placed the more than ten boxes stored in the package on the floor of the office.
He pointed at the box and said: "These things... were found when I salvaged the sunken ship based on the [Golden Compass] passed down by your family, Senior Boggs..."
"ah?!!!"
When Boggs and Aldrich heard this, their eyes widened immediately.
They looked at these dozen boxes again and immediately became very excited.
The [Golden Compass] originally recorded the location of the ship where my ancestor was shipwrecked. Was it really found?
"In this box, could it be..."
Boggs wanted to speak, but found that he was too excited to say a word.
Raymond said what the two of them were looking forward to the most, "Yes, this is the [Potion Knowledge Secret Codex] handbook left by the ten-star potion master 'Igris Centia'
Original, well preserved..."
After a pause, he turned to say: "Now the 'Potion Master's Union' in the Endless Sea has been controlled by the World Government. It is no longer a holy place for extraordinary people, and it can no longer bring hope to mankind...
"
After believing in "justice", the extraordinary beings trained by the Potion Masters Guild can only be nothing more than lackeys of the evil god.
"Here are some magic potion formulas that I have improved and derived. If someone can meet the advanced conditions in the future, I hope these formulas can be passed down..."
"There are also these other formulas and potion resources that I have collected..."
As he said this, Raymond didn't stop holding his hand.
One by one, items that can be regarded as the treasures of a potion master were brought out and placed throughout the office.
Not to mention this small black sea, even in the endless sea, taking these things out will attract countless top powerhouses to fight for their lives.
These are "priceless treasures"!
Looking at the room full of treasures, Aldrich and Boggs' excitement became calmer and calmer. Instead, they looked at Raymond with shocked faces and puzzled eyes: "Raymond, what are you...?"
No matter how you look at it, it seems like you are explaining the funeral arrangements!
Is it so dangerous for Raymond to go?
"If I fail..."
There was not much sadness on Raymond's face, but there was a fearless perseverance in his eyes.
He looked at the two old men and said in a sincere tone: "If I fail... I hope to leave these things to you two to pass on. I also want to leave some hope to the potion world and human civilization."
Some hope..."
Hearing this, the two old men looked at each other, their eyes trembling with light.
