Chapter 72 Confidential Work

  "Is the president inside?" The headquarters of the Pharmaceutical Association, Mocha Elder slowly walked to the door of a room and asked the two king-level peak powers guarding the entrance.

  "Ah, the president is inside", upon hearing Moka's words, both of the two peak-level king-class experts nodded in agreement. At this moment, the president in the room seemed to have heard the sound at the door and said: "Is that Moka at the door? Come on in".

  After hearing the long speech, the two king-level peak strongmen finally pushed open the door and entered. Mocha Elder went in first, the facilities inside were very simple, but gave a very clean feeling, a desk for office work, and several stools were arranged in order.

  The president of the pharmacist association, a thin and short old man with only half the height of an average person, sat on the office desk, his body was as small as that of a five or six year old boy. Although he was not good-looking and just a short and thin old man, he was the president of the pharmacist association.

  "Mocha, what's up?" The guild leader, who was studying the herbs with his head down, looked at Mocha as he walked in and asked in a flat tone.

  "I've come to see you about the Youth Pharmacy Exchange Conference two months from now," said Mocha, walking in and sitting down on a nearby stool.

  "Youth Pharmacist Exchange Conference?", with a very interested look on his face, he said: "Isn't this already being prepared? Each of the major empires will send five pharmacists under the age of 25 to compete and determine the final victory for their country. This happens every three years."

  Some curious gazes fell upon Mocha Elder, and the president opened his mouth to speak. Every exchange meeting was like this, so why did Mocha Elder come looking for him today because of this matter? The president's heart felt some doubt and curiosity.

  "I've come to recommend a candidate to you, President. He's about 20 years old and has already become an excellent pharmacist." Mocha elder said with a smile, paying attention to the president's expression.

  As expected, the guild master's body shook upon hearing Moka Elder's words, and he couldn't help but let out a low cry of surprise. He looked at Moka Elder with a serious expression: "What did you say? A perfect-level pharmacist around 20 years old? Are you certain you're not joking? Do you know what a 20-year-old perfect-level pharmacist represents?"

  "Of course I know, and very clearly," nodded Mocha Elder with a smile, his face still looking serious.

  "Alright! When you have time, bring the person to me and let me take a look! I want to confirm it personally," said the president seriously, nodding his head. He also knew what it meant for someone so young to be a perfect-level pharmacist - it meant that in the future, there would definitely be an epic-level elder, and there was even a high possibility of a legendary-level president emerging.

  Pausing slightly at this point, he continued: "By the way, how many people know about this young perfect pharmacist? How's the confidentiality work?"

  As a young perfect-class pharmacist is to be used as a surprise attack, at the Youth Pharmacist Exchange Conference to shock other countries, so confidentiality work is extremely important.

  "En, a few people who know have been informed, the news should not be leaked out", nodded, Mo Ka elder replied, then, after hesitating for a moment, frowned and said: "However, unfortunately, this young pharmaceutical genius's mind is not on pharmacy but on other things..."

  As he spoke, Moka Elder carefully told the President about Lin Chen's situation. Upon hearing Moka Elder's words, the President also widened his eyes, with a look of pain and regret, as well as a mixture of laughter and tears. With the enviable talent for alchemy, he had actually chosen to become a swordsman, a profession that didn't have much innate talent. This was simply like guarding a mountain of gold without digging into it, but instead insisting on farming.

  After Mocha elder finished explaining Lin Chen's situation, including the possibility of a legendary pharmacist standing behind him, the president pondered for a long time and said: "The confidentiality work regarding Lin Chen must be done thoroughly. Not even the elders in the guild should know about it. Those who do know must keep their mouths shut. As for Lin Chen himself, I hope you will use every means possible to let him develop as a pharmacist."

  Confidential work, Mocha elder thought he could do it himself, but no matter what method was used to make Lin Chen shift his attention from the swordsman to the pharmacist, Mocha elder had no grasp of it at all. For so long, his own efforts were enough, but looking at Lin Chen's appearance, there wasn't even a hint of wavering.

  "That... Brother Lin Chen... is it okay to just enter the city like this?", following behind Lin Chen's back, the young man looked nervous, after all, within the Imperial City, it could be said that it was precisely within the sphere of influence of Generalissimo La Mei and the Swordsmen Guild's Elder Sun's son. Entering the Imperial City wasn't like a sheep entering a tiger's den?

  "It's nothing! I think neither the Marshal's Mansion nor the Swordsmen Guild would dare to act rashly in front of the Alchemist Guild. The core members of the Alchemist Guild, no matter who wants to make a move, must weigh their options carefully." Lin Chen turned his head and waved his hand nonchalantly.

  Although Lin Chen had always been reluctant to join the Alchemist Guild, it was only because he feared that after joining the guild, he would be distracted from leveling up by various guild matters. However, since having that trial space, Lin Chen no longer had any psychological resistance to joining the Alchemist Guild.

  Now, Lin Chen felt that joining the pharmacist's guild wasn't a bad idea after all, as the pharmacist's guild could indeed provide him with quite good protection.

  Lin Chen doesn't like to entrust his safety to others, but that doesn't mean he doesn't like having a powerful backer to protect his safety.

  Without delaying his own leveling, Lin Chen felt that joining the Alchemist Guild wasn't a bad thing either. At least now he didn't have to worry about offending anyone and could walk openly on the streets of Imperial City.

  "Pharmacist Guild? Lin Chen, you're a core member of the Pharmacist Guild?" Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, this young man widened his eyes. A core member of the Pharmacist Guild? That would require at least the strength of an elite pharmacist.

  Top-notch pharmacists are sought after by various major powers everywhere, and yet the Storm Mercenary Corps, one of the four major mercenary corps, only has two top-notch pharmacists?

  "Not bad, let's go......" Looking at the young man with wide eyes and a shocked expression, Lin Chen smiled slightly and nodded, lifting his leg to walk directly towards the city gate of the Imperial Capital.

  When he heard that Lin Chen was a core member of the Pharmacist Guild, this young man finally understood Lin Chen's weight. Although he was surprised that a core member of the Pharmacist Guild would go to practice swordsmanship, the young man did not doubt Lin Chen's words. With the Pharmacist Guild as his backing, the young man secretly let out a sigh of relief and followed Lin Chen into the city gate of the Imperial Capital...
