Grandmaster Hunter of Age of Mythology
Chapter 11 Alchemical Pocket Watch
Lillian first went to the courtyard where the young lady lived and found that she was not there. There was only a message on the table...
Lilian:
I know you will see this letter. The academy needs to verify the trial mission, so it will take a few days.
Kashen's mount is in the academy's animal stable. I asked the Ladak instructor to help. It will take some time to see the result. Kashen Warrior is lucky. He didn't expect that the wolf he raised casually is a water monster and can activate its nature. Please take some time to check it out for me.
I don't have time to wait for news in the academy, so I asked for leave to go back to the family to deal with the matter of the Kashen Warrior's training secrets. By the way, I will see if there is any business suitable for us to do, and communicate with the family on behalf of Hodel and Wolf.
You just need to take good care of them and wait for me to return to the college.

After reading the letter, I realized that the young lady would be away from home for at least a month. She went to great lengths to praise the warrior Kashen, but it couldn't be just appreciation. Could it be that she fell in love with him?
Training Kashin costs money like water, no less than the cost of training a magician. It is certain that the lady has fallen in love with this wild boy.
How could Lillian compete with the young lady? She could only silently bless them. It was getting late, so she went to the restaurant to eat some food first, and we would talk about it tomorrow.
Thinking of Kashin's sunny and innocent smile, Lillian couldn't let go, so she got drunk that night and had to be sent back to the courtyard by the waiter...
The grandfather and grandson were very satisfied with the environment of the magic academy, and they went to the academy's market the next day. They found that there were a large number of students working in the market, working and studying.
Nick sighed and said, "These kids are in their golden years, and they have to work hard for their studies. They don't have time to practice. Eighty percent of them will miss the best age for practice. What a pity!"
"Grandpa, talent is very important. Some people can understand a lot after listening to one lesson, while some people are still confused after listening to a hundred lessons. The academy has long been able to distinguish the wise and foolish apprentices. Just let nature take its course! These people have a job here, which is better than going back to farm. I believe that the academy will not do things for no reason."
"Yes, I believe in the academy's rich experience. Let's take a look at the timing equipment. Boy, if you want to break the constraints of time, you need to work hard and it's not easy."
Kashen nodded firmly, and the two walked into an alchemy shop, only to be greeted warmly by an old man in his sixties, who was also wearing an apprentice robe and was another eliminated magician.
"You two look unfamiliar. You must be followers of an apprentice! Just come and look around. If you need anything, just ask."
"Excuse me, senior, do you have a device to calculate time?"
"A timing device? Does an hourglass count?"
Kashin said: "I guess so, but it's not very useful to me. If you want, you can make one yourself."
The old apprentice smiled and said, "You're right. We don't have such low-quality goods in our store. Do you want a mechanical pocket watch? It's a top-grade alchemical product. The smallest time unit is seconds, which is about a blink of an eye."
This kind of alchemical item is definitely not available outside. Magicians are trained to cast spells as quickly as possible, and of course the faster the better, because they need operations to be accurate to the second.
With the knowledge of time counting from the exquisite pocket watch, the old apprentice told them, Kashin and the old man quickly mastered this new knowledge and tried to use various functions...
"This thing is very exquisite, I really need it."
"Little brother, you have good eyesight. This is indeed a great creation of a genius magician. Two thousand magic coins for one."
"This is too expensive! I can't afford it at all given my current situation. Sorry!"
"It's okay, little brother. You can say it's useless, but you can never say it's expensive. The pocket watch is made entirely of rare alloys. The front is polished from a whole piece of flawless crystal, which is transparent and solid. Some of the parts inside are smaller than wheat grains, and the smaller they are, the harder they are to make. Some are even made of pure gold, so there's no need to worry about the pocket watch getting wet and the parts rusting, so it's definitely not expensive."
To be honest, Kashin's eyes stayed on the exquisite alchemical pocket watch and he couldn't move them away...
Nick: "Brat, let's go back first. This thing will help you improve your speed. Then we'll discuss it with Miss Lillian. We have no idea how valuable the magic coins are!"
Kashin was not excited about obtaining those sophisticated weapons, but this pocket watch did make him want to get it.
According to the address left by Miss Lillian, the two asked for directions after leaving the market and found the courtyard where the lady lived. The houses here are of higher quality, and it is probably impossible to live there without some financial resources.
Last night, Lillian drank too much and fell into a deep sleep until she was awakened by the urgent doorbell. When she woke up, she had a splitting headache and staggered to the door. When she heard it was the father and son, she asked them to wait.
After quickly washing up, taking a pill of spiritual medicine and drinking a glass of juice, the discomfort symptoms just now were quickly relieved. After more than ten minutes, Lillian opened the door and invited them in with great energy.
"Is there anything I can help you two with? Are you missing the Silver Dragon? I'll take you to see it later."
Grandpa Nick: "Miss Lillian, we went to the market and saw a pocket watch..."
The old man asked for a pocket watch on behalf of his grandson to use for timing in order to improve his training results.
Of course Lillian knew about pocket watches, which were useful for magicians to practice their spellcasting proficiency. The lady collected several of them as spares...
"As long as we can increase the speed, it will be beneficial to Kashin's martial arts, right? Let's go and get a pocket watch."
"Thank you Miss Lillian. If I have the pocket watch, I wonder if the academy has a training ground. I would like to start training and get familiar with those new weapons at the same time! We are not very familiar with the academy~".
"Okay, we'll deal with it together later. Do you need to be more secretive during your training?"
"this?…".
Grandpa Nick immediately said: "If it is an open training, I think we can forget about it. We can go to practice outside the academy. Isn't there a hill in the distance? We can train there."
Lillian: "Okay, it's up to you. The young lady has returned to the family and will not be back for at least a month. You can arrange your training freely. I won't be in charge."
Lillian didn't take them to the alchemy shop in the market at all, but to a magician's private courtyard, which was just a few steps away.
The magician in this courtyard is working on alchemy with more than a dozen apprentices, and everyone is very busy.
The alchemists Lillian visited were all very familiar with each other. After exchanging pleasantries, she asked if he had a pocket watch.
The tall and thin bald magician smiled and said: "Yes, if you need it, the parts are ready and it will be no problem to assemble one right away."
"Okay, how much is it? I want a pocket watch for training speed, not a fashionable one for telling time..."
"I understand. It has an independent stopwatch function, a field compass, and a magic array detector. If someone sets up a magic array, the new pocket watch will issue an alert."
"Master is really amazing. Maybe we can avoid danger this way. How many magic coins will it take to assemble one according to this standard?"
"You are an old customer. I will give you 3,000 magic coins. If you sell it in the alchemy shop, I will add at least 30% profit, and sell it for at least 4,000 magic coins. It is the latest model, and I will only charge you the cost price..." The magician kept explaining that his pocket watch was technologically innovative and cheap.
"Okay, I won't bargain. Master, you must use your best craftsmanship to complete this pocket watch!"
"Ms. Lillian is straightforward, so let's not be vague. How about the hands made of diamond material that can be formed in one go so that we can tell time at night?"
"Things like these are just leftovers from diamond cutting, shaped using alchemical techniques. They're worthless. They may fool my daughter, but you can't fool me..."
"Okay, you are an outsider. I am too lazy to explain. The material is indeed worthless. It is not something that everyone can process to shape such a hard material. It is definitely an innovation in alchemy..."
I agreed to come back in two days to pick up the latest pocket watch with diamond hands, which shows that alchemists are exploring new functions of pocket watches.
