Chapter 118 Hiring Experimental Subjects

 h Next, Locke was busy all morning at the Healing Hand Treatment Center. After returning in the afternoon, he studied the secondary emerald potion for three hours.

 In the evening, Locke began to use advanced meditation methods and began to meditate.

 Because he wanted to seize the first month's welfare period, Locke directly filled up all his resources, took a bottle of Tears of the Stars potion, used Four Seasons Fruit Core Incense, and an energy potion, and meditated all night.

 As a result, his daily magic stone expenditure has reached 400 magic stones, and his current deposit is only 5,500 magic stones.

 This is his original savings plus the income from the plantation last month.

 His current plantation can earn 3,700 magic stones every month.

 According to this algorithm, Locke can sustain for about thirteen days, with such full resource consumption, and then there will be no money.

 The output of this month's plantation will not be settled at Lijin Secret Language until the end of the month.

  The cost of treating wizard apprentices at the treatment center will also have to be settled at the end of the month.

 Hence, Locke was actually in a temporary financial crisis.

  If he continues like this, he will have to stop using the advanced meditation method with all his resources and miss the one-month novice benefit period for using the advanced meditation method.

Or, he can only go outside to sign a loan contract. However, the interest rates for non-college loan contracts are generally frighteningly high, and the process for college loan contracts is very troublesome.

 In Locke's residence.

 Locke ordered the three gray dwarves and two catwomen to clean his home, and at the same time took a bite of the apple in his hand.

   "This one-month novice welfare period is not to be missed. Many first-class wizard apprentices have missed it due to lack of money. As a result, they have to spend a year, or even several years, to make up for the missed one-month novice welfare period."

  "Forget it, let's meditate with all resources every day. If you are short of money, we will talk about it when the time comes. I am now a potion master's assistant and a breeder's assistant, and I will definitely be able to find a way to make money quickly."

 Speaking of it, he no longer lacks resources.

  At least most of the first-class wizard apprentices who have no background are likely to directly miss this one-month novice welfare period.

  Or he signed a high debt contract, which led to a series of debt bankruptcies. As a result, he was trapped by others, and suffered even worse losses, and could only work for others in vain.

 Locke remembered that when he was working this morning, Essie told him an interesting anecdote. There was a wizard apprentice in Lilith Cabin. He carelessly signed a usury contract with others. As a result, he failed to repay the loan in time during the repayment period, and could only continue to sign more usury contracts.

 As a result, we have entered a situation of demolishing the east wall and repairing the west wall.

 Later, when his credit went bankrupt and the repayment chain was completely broken, he was forced to sign a fifty-year labor slavery contract in which he worked for others for free every day.

 Locke felt that although the person who signed such a contract was not a slave in name, he was actually not much different from a slave.

   Basically a debt slave.

 In the white wizard society, once someone becomes this kind of debt slave, it is basically a social death. All social relations will be actively severed with him, and he will no longer be close to him, and he will fall to the bottom of heaven.

 Locke came back to his senses and continued to meditate.

 One night passed, his mental power increased from 227 to 235. With all the resources fully loaded and in the novice welfare period, his mental power increased by 8 points overnight.

The next day, Locke was full of energy, which was a side effect of taking the energy potion. He looked in the mirror and saw himself wearing a close-fitting white wizard robe, with a perfect and slender figure.

  He adjusted his clothes, then turned around and opened the door.

Today is the day for him to recruit second-class wizard apprentices and experimental subjects.

  To pass the process in the pharmacy, you need at least three third-class wizard apprentices, one second-class wizard apprentice, and a potion master's assistant.

 In this way, you can start the process.

  If he wants to apply for a personal pharmacy as soon as possible, he must gather the manpower as soon as possible.

Locke has already attracted three students of Witch Sophia, that is, his three junior apprentices, but he still lacks a second-class wizard apprentice.

 As for my friends Lawn and Pierre, unfortunately, they are still third-class wizard apprentices.

  Their promotion speed is the promotion speed of most people in Lilith Cabin Academy.

 His speed is something only a handful of people can achieve. After all, he is ranked second in the same period.

 The person who is faster than myself is also a son of the elements, the only son of the elements in his generation.

 Not every new class will have children of elements.

The wizard seedlings with the qualifications of Son of Elements will be fiercely robbed by all the wizard organizations in the southeast corner. Sometimes, even if it takes ten years, there may not be a Son of Elements enrolled.

 Locke opened the door and saw Pierre standing outside.

  Pierre seemed to have been waiting at the door for a long time.

Pierre's eyes suddenly brightened when he saw Locke opening the door, and then he looked at Locke with a guilty conscience and said, "Locke, I came here after I received your letter. Will you really pay me one hundred magic stones every month, which is more than what Senior Angron gave me?"

Locke nodded, and then frowned dissatisfied. "You don't have to be restrained when you come to my place. You can just knock on my door next time."

   "We are friends."

Pierre was moved and said: "Lock, is it safe for you to be used as a test subject?"

 "I still have my parents at home, and I don't want them to hear the news of my death..."

Locke asked him to sit inside. "Don't worry, if it's not safe, I won't let you use it. I can honestly do animal experiments and human experiments first."

  "I have confirmed the efficacy of the medicines I gave you. I just need to issue a report, and your low magic resistance is the most convincing."

  "Here, I will give you the pen, I will not force you. If you refuse, I can find someone else."

  Locke placed the contract and the pen in front of Pierre who was sitting on the sofa.

 When Pierre thought of the hundred magic stones and his relatively close relationship with Locke, he immediately picked up the quill. "Sign, I believe you, Locke."

 "That's one hundred magic stones per month. I don't know how much magic resources can be bought."

Pierre swiped a few times and signed his name on the contract.

After he finished signing, Locke put away the contract and said: "Pierre, I asked my servant to treat you to some delicious food. I will hold a simple interview soon, so I won't entertain you for now."

Pierre said: "Oh oh...ok."

At this time, some second-class wizard apprentices were already standing outside Locke's door.

They all received the recruitment information spread by Locke, so they came here and wanted to participate in the interview and join Locke's newly created personal pharmacy.
