Today's test was another major failure.
Chapter 54 Illusion Potion
After realizing that she had worked for nothing for a year, Si Xuanyin fell into a state of depression. She leaned against You Yonghuai and murmured for a long time before burying her head in the quilt.
You Yonghuai didn't say anything, but gently patted the girl's back, trying to comfort her.
After a long while, Si Xuanyin jumped out of bed and said fiercely, "I'm going to wipe out this damned cult sooner or later!"
"I believe you will."
Using a fireball spell to ignite the alchemy furnace, Si Xuanyin puffed out her cheeks and began alchemy. As she threw materials into the furnace, she said, "I definitely can't go to that venue with you. I'll probably be discovered as soon as I go in. So, I need to prepare some things for you in advance, just in case."
You Yonghuai stood aside, watching Si Xuanyin's methodical refining process, and was greatly amazed.
Alchemy demands a high level of concentration; a moment's lapse in focus during the process can lead to failure, let alone communicating with others.
If it were You Yonghuai, he would probably have to undergo an alchemy test the moment he opened his mouth, and then fail the test, resulting in a complete loss.
Clearly, Si Xuanyin's alchemy skills were already highly refined.
After all, she had spent a whole year, just like the black slaves, practicing alchemy without a break. Even the dumbest person would surely be able to master alchemy, let alone someone as talented as Si Xuanyin.
While pouring out her grievances to You Yonghuai, Si Xuanyin finished refining the medicine, poured the bright purple liquid into a bottle, sealed it, and handed it to You Yonghuai.
【Name: Illusion Potion】
[Effect: It can be absorbed through the skin, causing the user to experience a short period of mental confusion.]
"If anyone finds you, just throw this potion away," Si Xuanyin said. "While dismantling the cult is important, protect yourself first, understand?"
Seeing Si Xuanyin's hesitant manner, You Yonghuai smiled slightly and said, "Don't you know what kind of person I am? I'd be the first to run if there's any danger."
Si Xuanyin pouted, glanced at You Yonghuai with some suspicion, and said nothing more.
It's not good to annoy people with your words.
After dinner, You Yonghuai stood in front of the mirror and put on the mask that Ling Xiuqi had given him.
Through the two masks, You Yonghuai felt a little short of breath.
After confirming that he hadn't put his head on crookedly, You Yonghuai tried to make a few expressions, but found that the effect was very poor, and he could only manage a forced smile.
The other expressions were even more unbearable to look at.
The kind that looks like a fake.
When the appointed time arrived, You Yonghuai carried the cardboard box downstairs, and the two would take a car together to the venue of the exchange meeting.
"Have a safe trip~" Si Xuanyin waved with a smile.
The fat man was already waiting downstairs. When he saw You Yonghuai carrying a suitcase, he was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and opened the trunk.
"Dude, your face swap looks pretty realistic."
"But I can only play the role of someone with a blank expression; any facial expression will give me away."
After putting down the cardboard box and getting into the car, You Yonghuai told the fat man to drive directly.
"Huh? There are still two hours to go," the fat man glanced at the time; it was just past five. "It should only take thirty minutes to drive from here to the hotel at most."
Traffic inspection failed!
You Yonghuai calmly looked ahead, glanced at the ten-sided dice, and said, "Go ahead and start. Two hours might not even be enough."
"Brother, do you rarely ride in cars?" The fat man obediently stepped on the gas, but still muttered something unconvincingly.
You Yonghuai shook his head and said nothing more.
He wouldn't rush to tell others his specific situation.
Two hours later.
"Why is it so congested today?" The fat man honked his horn loudly, urging the car in front to move faster, his face full of disbelief.
"Yeah, it's really congested." You Yonghuai's butt was getting sore from sitting so long. He turned his head to look at the hotel next to him and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother, you carry the goods upstairs first, I'll go find a parking spot." Seeing that it was almost seven o'clock, the fat man hurriedly parked his car on the side of the road and said, "It'll probably take a long time to find a parking spot here."
You Yonghuai nodded, then picked up the cardboard box, got out of the car, and quickly walked into the hotel.
After watching You Yonghuai enter, the fat man looked at the sea of cars in front of him, muttered a curse under his breath, and was just ready to continue wasting time when he noticed that the vehicles seemed to be moving faster for no reason.
"Why is the traffic suddenly gone?" the fat man muttered in confusion, when a voice call popped up on his phone.
Upon opening the call, I saw it was from the buyer of the Infernal Affairs School: "Why hasn't the goods arrived yet?"
"There's a traffic jam on the road, we've been waiting for two hours... I just had the young man who came with me deliver it to you, it should arrive soon."
Carrying a cardboard box full of glass tubes, You Yonghuai intended to take the elevator directly to the seventh floor, but found that no matter how long he waited, he couldn't get on the elevator.
Either the elevator is just overweight, or it simply won't come down.
This meant he had to climb the stairs to the seventh floor.
On his way upstairs, You Yonghuai's gaze swept over the people passing by and he quickly recognized the people that Ye Qingchen had arranged in advance.
Knowing that someone would cover for him, You Yonghuai felt much more at ease.
Rushing inside, You Yonghuai looked around the lavishly decorated venue and saw a few dozen people scattered around.
They mostly gathered in twos and threes, and seemed to know each other very little.
You Yonghuai spotted Ling Xiuqi, who was secretly disguised as a waiter, at a glance.
The other party had certainly changed their appearance, but You Yonghuai's "half-baked knowledge" also came with the function of opening boxes, so it was impossible for him to mistake the person again.
It would be great if we could see more than just names.
"Is this box full of medicine?" Noticing You Yonghuai's arrival, a man quickly came up to him and asked.
You Yonghuai nodded.
"Come with me, put your things this way."
The man waved to You Yonghuai, signaling him to follow, and said, "Your goods are late. If it weren't for the traffic jam on the road, some friends wouldn't have arrived yet, and there would have been a big problem."
Realizing that the other party wanted to bargain, You Yonghuai did not answer, but quietly moved the cardboard box to the designated location and then put it down.
Anyway, the money won't end up in his hands, so let the other party try to bargain.
You might be able to save money, but you might not be able to spend it.
"Mr. Zhao, here is the agenda for the exchange meeting. Please take a look—you may need to speak next."
A somewhat familiar voice came from behind. You Yonghuai turned around and saw Dai Quan, dressed in a suit, walking over with a document in his hand.
Wasn't he suffering from amnesia? Why is he here? You Yonghuai's mind was in turmoil.
Sensing You Yonghuai's gaze, Dai Quan also looked at You Yonghuai, and his body stiffened for a moment.
[Concealment check: The check succeeds if the value is greater than 35]
Test result: 23
[Detection failed! Dai Quan recognized you!]
