Chapter 158 Promoted to “Wind-loving One” in half a month—I’m sailing in the “Chaos Sea”!
In the familiar alchemy room filled with various test tubes, iron pots, spoons and other equipment, Old Blue and Roy sat on two chairs again.

"Are you sure you want to get promoted now? This 'Wind-loving' potion will be yours sooner or later. Why do you want to take the risk and get promoted in such a short time after becoming a 'Navigator'?" Roy Wellington asked with a serious and regretful expression.

Old Blue was silent at first, then he spoke:

“I believe the church has already investigated my situation. Theoretically, I have lost all my relatives, and even the ties behind me are almost all broken.

"What has supported me till now is that the last bond is broken in a suspicious way... I suspect that Tingen is still hiding something... I want to investigate, I want to investigate it myself, and for this, I must be promoted, and I must crave all the power.

“Perhaps you will say that the church can do this for me, but... please let me do this for my family personally. This is belated care... maybe I will feel more at ease when I see them in the Kingdom of Storm.

"If I fail to be promoted, please leave the remaining Beyonder characteristics, um, that should be the name, to old Swain. That was what we agreed before I left. If he doesn't want to be promoted, then donate it to the church."

After hearing these words that sounded like a will, Roy felt mixed emotions. He did think about sending the Mandated Punishers, who were good at investigating cases, to Tingen, but the old man in front of him used Qilingos' body to prove his ability to the church...

“Little Blue is also a Made Punisher. He must have gone to the Kingdom of Storms.

“The Substitute Punisher will not forget him, nor will he forget you.

"An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. I cannot refuse a father's legitimate request to avenge his son.

"Also...thank you. Because of your activeness, my merits for the 'Ocean Songster' potion are finally enough. If you can survive, I will take care of you."

Oh shit! Old Blue was shocked. Roy was going to be promoted to Sequence 5? This guy must be in his 30s at most? The promotion speed through the church system was no different from riding a rocket... This was not a Sequence 5 like Alger during the war, a cannon fodder. Roy Wellington could be a deacon in an important parish like Backlund! He would definitely be a demigod in the future! An absolute high-level person qualified to join the Cardinals' Conference!

"Haha, congratulations, Deacon Roy, um, Senior Deacon Roy! This way I must succeed, I can't bear to give up connections like you." Old Blue immediately changed his tone, picked up the deep blue characteristics left by Qilingos and threw them into the iron pot, then quickly prepared the potion by comparing it with the "Wind-loving" potion formula spread out on the table.

Soon, the deep blue extraordinary properties in the iron pot were transformed by various auxiliary materials into a pool of dark blue and almost black viscous liquid. From time to time, two bubbles emerged from it, and the bubbles burst. A breeze rolled up the liquid, swirling it, and then it returned to calm.

Roy condensed a thin wind blade in his right hand and looked at the old man intently. Unlike the last time he witnessed the promotion to navigator, this time he no longer wanted to execute the respectable old man... but he had to be prepared.

Old Blue picked up the huge black iron pot with one hand and raised it up gracefully, as if he was holding up a glass of Ormier wine, and greeted Roy who was on guard: "Cheers!"

Gulp... still unpalatable! It smells like bird droppings... Uh, don't ask me how I know what bird droppings smell like. Old Bruce's thoughts continued to wander. The main ingredients of "Wind Blesser" are the eyeballs of Longyan Sea Eagle and the crystallization of Blue Shadow Falcon's feathers... It doesn't sound like something that can be eaten... Two kinds of extraordinary materials of birds, so it has the power of wind?

Before Sequence 7, there were "Blood of Ghost Shark" and "Merceman's Swim Bladder", all of which were extraordinary creatures in the sea... Therefore, people would gain extraordinary abilities in the ocean, and from Sequence 6 onwards, they would turn to the sky realm?
Hmm... According to this, does the "farmer" have to eat earthworms after the passage? It's not impossible...

While Old Blue was daydreaming, the "Wind-loving" potion was constantly transforming his body, and Roy saw it all.

A similar situation occurred as when he was promoted to a navigator. The old man's muscles swelled again, even causing cracks in his clothes. Something seemed to be wriggling under his armpits... as if... as if his ribs suddenly gained life and wanted to break out of his body and form a pair of wings made of bones!

Roy's heart immediately lifted. He knew that this was the most critical step in his promotion to "Wind-loving One". Using the organs of extraordinary creatures to prepare potions would definitely be affected by the remaining pollution. But if humans grew "wings" and "beaks", they would be doomed to lose control!

Old Blue thought it was quite interesting. If a demigod grew "wings", it would be out of control. If a demigod grew "wings", it would be a mythical form... Then I will create a mythical form now... How about that? Uh, forget it. Roy can't help but do it...

He quickly restrained the changes in his body. This was not difficult for old Blue who played "flesh and blood magic" almost every day. Soon, the ribs that were almost growing under his armpits returned to calm, silently fulfilling their mission one by one.

Old Bruce suddenly closed his eyes, then opened them, closed them again, and opened them again. His pupils were deep blue, but their shape changed from vertical to horizontal, and then to round. In that deep blue, it seemed as if a violent hurricane had surged, as if just being in it would fill one with fear.

Roy watched the old man's transformation, holding the wind blade in his hand in a daze. Succeeded? Succeeded just like that? He immediately asked, "Since you came to Backlund, how much money have I reimbursed you for?"

"...Deacon Roy, this is what you asked... Apart from giving me 100 pounds for investigation expenses, nothing else was reimbursed! By the way, the cost of the Serenzo restaurant that night..." Old Blue replied with a smile.

"Well... not bad, you're in good shape..." Roy ignored the second half of the old man's words and continued to talk to himself:
"You said you served in the Royal Navy for five years. Perhaps this experience helped you digest the Navigator potion quickly..."

Navigator? Old Blue smiled and said, "You guys are sailing in the Sonia Sea, but I sail in the "Chaos... er, Puddles" every day!" I will also melt in my mouth if I have another dose of the "Navigator" potion!

What does knowledge mean? My cheat is so big, but he lacks the necessary knowledge, so he can't do a series of tricks. My cheat... although it's just a "puddle", but combined with advanced knowledge, the ability it shows is not bad at all!
"Storm is above! This is all the blessing of God!" Old Bruce always remembered that he was a devout believer, and saluted by hitting his left chest with his right fist.

"...Storm is above!" Roy looked at the old man who had returned to normal in front of him, feeling a little emotional. Is this the fastest promoted "Navigator" in the history of the church?
How long did it take me? Following the Acting Method, it took me two years? It is said that there are geniuses who can digest it in six months, but compared to the half month it took Old Blue, he may not have digested it completely. He may have succeeded just by relying on his firm belief. Thinking of this, Roy felt that he could help the old man appropriately, so he said:
"You are already a Sequence 6 Beyonder, and are qualified to know some methods of digesting potions that the church does not allow to be passed on. It is called... 'acting method'."

"……Depend on!"
