Chapter 27: National Alchemist

Chapter 27: National Alchemist

President Kim Bradley is a tall and straight middle-aged man with a blindfold in his left eye. Although he always has a faint smile, he gives people a feeling of not being angry and dignified, and he has a superior temperament.

"Mr. Zhang, your test questions this time are temporarily selected, photosynthesis or respiratory effects, choose one of the two." Even with someone's illusion, the strict character of the beautiful officer remains unchanged.

"Let's do two together." Anyway, his sudden emerging guy will definitely receive a series of close attention and secret investigations. There is no difference in high-key and low-key. Zhang Shen is better to keep a high profile.

The beautiful officer frowned: "Are you sure?"

"Well, bring the things over."

The assessment of national alchemists is difficult. Generally, when alchemists do these two refining, most of them use thriving plants to improve their success rate, but only a fresh branch is provided here, which is full of oval green leaves.

And water is not provided. You can extract it from the air by yourself.

For this "stingy" style, Zhang Shen can only laugh.

Draw a refining array on the ground and start it.

The soil surged next to the branches, forming a bluestone basin. Then, water molecules gathered quickly in an area thousands of meters. Soon, clear ripples began to swing at the bottom of the basin, getting deeper and deeper, filling the whole stone basin.

In addition to Zhang Shen, the beautiful officer and the president, there are still two guards and a clerk responsible for recording, all of whom have a certain understanding of alchemy and have seen a lot at ordinary times.

Zhang Shen's happy movements and relaxed expression made the people present have a judgment: this assessment is mostly difficult for him.

Complete the preparation and start real refining. In the psychology of self-examination, he does not intend to use dragon vein alchemy or any knowledge related to alchemy.

To put it simply, photosynthesis is that plants absorb carbon dioxide and water under light conditions to produce organic matter - mainly starch; the opposite is the respiration effect, consuming organic substances such as starch to generate carbon dioxide and water.

There is no doubt that photosynthesis is simpler than the refining of respiration, but it is just a comparison. In fact, both are quite difficult, because they involve the reaction at the plant cell level and are not so easy to operate.

This is also the difficulty of the national alchemist assessment.

However, for Zhang Shen, such an assessment is not difficult!

He hasn't used this kind of refining reaction with a fixed refining formula for many years...

Under the gaze of one after another, Zhang Shen was extremely proficient in drawing and refining into an array.

symbolizes the endless circle of everything in the world;

symbolizes the six most mysterious hexagons in the world;

Directly copy the formulas of photosynthesis and breathing, and slightly modify the connection.

lian into an array and start!!

The dazzling silver electric light sputtered out of the array, half flew into the dense branches and leaves, and half disappeared into the air.

ji——

The air around begins to flow rapidly!

Carbon dioxide molecules and water molecules within a radius of thousands of meters quickly converge towards this side.

In order to visually display, Zhang Shen even allows the converged carbon dioxide and water molecules to form a sphere visible to the naked eye, suspended on the left and right sides.

Two "balloons" each protrude out a "pipe" and connect to the dense leaves.

Zhang Shen's spiritual power entered the plant cells, and suddenly, enlarged plant cell patterns appeared in Zhang Shen's sight.

The place for photosynthesis is in the chloroplast. If carbon dioxide molecules and water molecules are absorbed according to normal procedures, it will waste a lot of time to transport them into chloroplasts through one path. Zhang Shen does not have such spare time.

Driven by spiritual power, carbon dioxide and water molecules directly enter the chloroplast for rapid photosynthesis.

There are hundreds of green leaves on this branch, and the number of cells in each green leaf is 10,000 units. So many cells carry out photosynthesis together, and they are driven by someone's rudeness without any injury to the body, and the efficiency explodes instantly.

Several people present can see the rapid "flow" of carbon dioxide and water molecules.

Among hundreds of green leaves, only half are undergoing photosynthesis. The other half is naturally reserved for breathing.

Jin Bradley noticed this situation, his pupils couldn't help shrinking, and he was more curious about the sudden rise of Zhang Shen. He is also proficient in alchemy and naturally understands how strong control it takes to do so.

Respiratory requires the consumption of organic matter, and Zhang Shen decided to use half of the inventory and photosynthesis products in tree trunk plant cells as the source.

The reaction of photosynthesis is very obvious. After all, carbon dioxide and water molecules have been consumed and can be seen with the naked eye. On the contrary, breathing is slightly more troublesome. After all, a small amount of carbon dioxide and water molecules cannot be seen directly at the beginning.

After five or six minutes, people saw two baby fist-sized air masses.

Carbon dioxide is a colorless gas, and water is similar, but Zhang Shen naturally has a way to make them show their approximate shape.

After a few minutes, the volume of the two gas groups has reached the size of ostrich eggs.

Looking at the branches, it seems that they have been cut down for a long time, and there is no vitality, because all the organic matter in its cells is consumed by respiration.

"Okay, that's it."

Kim Bradley suddenly said, "Mr. Zhang Shen has fully proved his strength and there is no need to continue."

The concentration of carbon dioxide is too high. Although Zhang Shen was restrained in a air mass with mental strength, the people present were also a little uncomfortable.

Hearing this, Zhang Shen regained his mental strength and dispersed four air masses.

Papa. The president took the lead in applauting another excellent alchemist joining the ranks of national alchemists.

"Welcome to join us, Mr. Zhang Shen."

Zhang Shen smiled and showed just the right joy and reservedness: "You're welcome, it's my honor."

"I don't know what kind of title Mr. Zhang wants?"

"Title?" Zhang Shen knew that there was such a thing, but he was not clear about its meaning. "Is there any difference between different titles?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Kim Bradley's eyes: "It's just to let others know you faster. The title is determined according to the expertise and personality of the alchemist himself.

"Well," Zhang Shen pondered for a moment and suddenly smiled, "I think about it, it's called--"

"Truth!"

Ah?!

Everyone present exclaimed, and the smile on the president's face froze, and his right eye sparkled with inexplicable light.

After a short period of consteration, everyone's eyes at Zhang Shen were full of self-confidence and disgust.

With the title of "truth"? You know, the ultimate pursuit of all alchemists is "truth"!

Dare to take the name of truth, if alchemists from other countries know, it's no wonder they won't bother you. What's more, the title of the President will never agree.

"Haha, that's a good idea. I agree!"

What?!

Kim Bradley's statement made everyone's jaws fall down: this is unscientific!

The president looked playful: "I'm looking forward to the day when you become a real alchemist of truth."

Oh, it turns out that the president just wants to watch the fun.

People feel that they understand Kim Bradley's idea, and most of them also want to see the end of this arrogant guy.

"Well, Mr. Zhang, your silver timepiece will be completed today. Please go to the presidential palace tomorrow to receive and receive the medal." Every national alchemist has the rank equivalent to that of a major. Of course, it is equivalent to that there is no real power.

"Your Excellency Zhang should be from the Qing Dynasty. He may not know much about the national alchemist. If you have any questions, you can ask Ms. Arya Nosek (beautiful officer). I'll go first. See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow, Mr. President."

The eyes of Jin Bradley left, Zhang Shen touched his chin, thoughtfully, and his eyes flashed.

"I feel a familiar atmosphere... Yes, it's the 'rage' in the seven deadly sins... Artificial people, hehe, this country is really interesting. Artificial people can actually be president, huh."

"Is this country too open or some unspeakable conspiracy?"

"Well, I was lucky enough to find a clue as soon as I came. However, let's wait and see what happens first.

Immediately, he turned his eyes to the beautiful officer standing quietly beside him.

"Aria Northek?"

"Yes. Zhang, what can I do for you?" Alia, who is in her body, is very enthusiastic. If her subordinates see it, she will definitely fall down.

"Can you give me a certificate or something so that I can read alchemy books in the library?"

"Of course there is no problem! Do you need me to accompany you there?

"This... Forget it, go ahead."

............

With Arya's certificate, Zhang Shen went to the National Library again.

The assessment of the national alchemist took a lot of time (written examination, technical examination, psychiatric examination, interview). Although Zhang Shen completed all four items in the fastest time and set a new record, it was already 4 or 5 p.m. when he arrived at the library again.

Some parts of the National Library are open to the citizens of the city, which is very lively at this time.

Zhang Shen bypassed from one side and led by the staff to the area where only national alchemists could enter.

Responsible for managing the books and materials in this area is a girl in military uniform, who is very like a literary girl.

showed her Aria's certificate, Zhang Shen walked in and was immediately surprised by the small collection of books.

The structure is a circular hall. The four walls visit the high bookshelves. Each bookshelf is filled with thin or thick books, and there are almost no gaps.

Zhang Shen glanced at it. The bookshelf was very clean and there was no dust, and the maintenance of the book materials was also quite in place.

The book area for national alchemists is not only on this floor. Zhang Shen explored the spirit and found that there are five floors. Although the higher it goes, the fewer books and materials are stored, but in total, it is quite considerable.

Not long after Zhang Shen went in, a fat officer came in with a cautious smell.

He went straight to the literary girl and asked in a low voice, "Yami, have you found the information I told you yesterday?"

Yamei looked around a few times, and then took out a stack of information books that looked like some years old from under the desk and handed them to the man: "It's all here."

"Be careful, don't let anyone see it." Yamei told her.

"Don't worry, I will be very careful."

"I'll go first."

"Well, goodbye."

This fat officer is Hymans Bradda.
