Chapter 125 Eula is missing
"The universe is the upside-down heaven. The earth is the dream that time has forgotten.
"This is ash, the simplest state of a complex structure like life."
As if to support this miraculous statement, Albedo picked up the ashes of the flower on the grass slime's head that was burned on the experimental table beside him.
Under the gaze of Samuel, Sugar and other alchemists, a few seconds later, the pile of ashes in his hand.
A noble Cecilia flower bloomed.
Albedo handed it to the white-haired boy in front of him, whose blue eyes showed surprise and interest, and introduced it to him:
“This is the new life.”
"Happy Festival of Flowers of War, Saint Samuel," he added calmly.
Samuel took the white flower he handed over, looked at it carefully, and responded, "Thank you."
After a moment, he confirmed that the flower in his hand was no different from an ordinary Cecilia flower. Then he turned his gaze to the chief alchemist of the Knights in front of him and asked curiously:
"What's the principle?"
"Based on your knowledge of alchemy, what alchemical techniques do you think are used here?" Albedo asked back.
Samuel considered it and said in a clear and gentle voice: "I think..."
The alchemists standing by listened to the alchemical knowledge he slowly revealed, and their eyes showed even more respect.
One of the clerks whispered to another clerk:
"I didn't expect that Your Majesty has such a high level of attainment in alchemy..."
"I haven't thought of the aspects he mentioned... Can it be explained from this angle...?"
"——That's His Majesty Samuel." Giuliana suddenly interrupted with a proud look on her face, "His Majesty has studied various aspects, and alchemy is just the tip of the iceberg of his knowledge."
The Pope she serves is naturally the most powerful person in Mondstadt except for Lord Barbatos.
"So, Your Majesty has studied other subjects besides alchemy?"
"…I heard recently that Your Majesty has been spending a lot of time in the Knights' library. Is this the reason?"
"It's a pity that His Majesty is probably very busy on weekdays. Otherwise, if he could go to Xumi's School of Teachings for further study, he might have achieved greater accomplishments."
Samuel, who was explaining his ideas to Albedo and was distracted by the news brought back by the wind, paused.
The House of Religious Orders…?
Yes, the Order of the Lords is both the ruling body of Xumi and the highest institution of learning in the entire continent of Teyvat.
Moreover, the mystery surrounding him is obviously related to the grass god of Xumi and the world tree.
If I had the opportunity to go to the Teaching Institute to meet the Little Grass God in the name of academic advancement, I could learn more knowledge and have the opportunity to unravel the unknown about him.
Well... let's wait until the current situation stabilizes and then see if I can discuss it with Captain Qin.
Seeing that Samuel stopped talking, Albedo thought he was stuck, so he supplemented and summarized the alchemy knowledge that he had not just mentioned.
Samuel listened carefully. Teacher Albedo's perspective was indeed more novel and clear. He only needed a few words to open up new ideas for him.
Halfway through, Albedo saw that the group of alchemists were also eavesdropping, and he coughed and reminded them:
"If you have any questions about alchemy, you can ask me.
"But I will check the progress of your project later. If the research project at hand is not completed..."
What this means is that you should finish the task at hand before coming to listen.
Before he finished speaking, the group of alchemists looked at each other and hurried back to continue working on their own projects.
……
——After Albedo finished explaining the conclusion he wanted to add, Samuel realized from the bright sunlight shining in from the window that it was almost noon.
Albedo also knew that a lot of time had been wasted, so he suggested taking a break.
Then, in front of Sugar and other alchemists, he used the materials in the laboratory to refine a cup of Gale Essential Oil on the spot and handed it to Samuel.
They also considerately added just the right amount of ice mist flower stamens, which not only did not affect the original efficacy of the essential oil, but also added a cool taste.
It tastes much better than what Samuel brews himself.
"If necessary, I can also make some more snacks with wind elemental power." Albedo said calmly, "Don't worry about the expenses. These are all expenses reported to the Knights."
Upon hearing this, the alchemist nearby took the initiative to bring over the cakes that had already been refined and contained the element of wind.
Samuel also saw the familiar "The End of the Wind Flower", "The Prelude to the Hurricane" and "The Oath of Elegance".
Jean is very concerned about Samuel's daily life. She responded to Albedo's question:
"In addition to the materials that Your Majesty needs to consume when refining, the alchemy course also includes the wind elemental food that Your Majesty likes to eat and other losses. These are all expenses that need to be reimbursed."
There were no objections, and the proposal was passed after a quick glance.
Albedo also used this as an excuse to use the funds approved by the Knights Templar to add a lot of equipment to the laboratory.
We even renovated the laboratory that had been used for a long time and was a bit old.
It can be said that it is thanks to Samuel's arrival that the alchemists of the Knights Templar are enjoying their current comfortable environment.
Otherwise, given the economic losses caused during the wolf disaster, it would be a problem whether the Knights could stably supply alchemical materials to the alchemical laboratory before recovering.
Therefore, His Holiness the Pope of the Church of Favonius is like a cash cow and savior to the alchemists of the Knights Templar who are "going to die if they don't do research."
For such beings, we must naturally treat them well.
"Your Majesty, you must be tired after listening to classes for a whole morning. Take a rest." Giuliana on the side said respectfully.
Samuel nodded and took a sip of the oil.
Then, he suddenly remembered something and asked Albedo:
"Teacher Albedo, what happened to Eula?"
Albedo, who was recording the project progress of other alchemists, paused and turned to look at Samuel.
"Have you heard?" There was a hint of doubt in his calm tone.
Samuel shook his head: "No."
"It's just that I heard that someone in the Knights Order seemed to be asking about Eula's news."
Albedo hesitated for a moment, greeted the clerk next to him, and under Samuel's confused gaze, led him out of the laboratory to a reserve warehouse not far from the alchemy laboratory on the second floor.
Samuel recognized that this was the material storage room of the laboratory. Various bottles and jars stored various alchemical materials in different ways.
He had read in a book before that only when the materials stored in the laboratory were used up would staff come here to move them.
So there is usually no one here.
Why did Mr. Albedo bring him to this room...? Samuel wondered.
The next second, he heard Albedo explain:
"Because Captain Qin ordered to suppress this matter, I cannot explain it to you in the laboratory.
"Eula is missing, and her uncle, Schubert Lawrence, who revealed the defense map of Mondstadt to the Fatui, just escaped from prison a while ago.
“They both belong to the old aristocratic ‘Lawrence’ family. Even though Eula has proved with her actions that she is different from the rest of the family, her last name is still ‘Lawrence’.
“Captain Qin estimated that if this information were leaked, someone would link Eula, a titled knight, to Schubert’s escape.
"Plus, Mondstadt has been in turmoil recently, and the identities of the old nobles have always been a sensitive topic, so Qin chose to send someone to investigate secretly."
