President Kim Bradley is a tall and upright middle-aged man with a blindfold on his left eye. Although he always has a faint smile, he gives people a feeling of being arrogant without anger and has a high-ranking temperament.

"Mr. Zhang, your test questions are temporarily drawn, photosynthesis or respiration, choose one of them." Even though Zhang's magic in his body, the rigorous personality of the beautiful chief has not changed.

"Let's go together." Anyway, the guy who suddenly appeared would definitely receive a series of close attention and secret investigations. There is no difference between being high-profile and being low-profile. Zhang Shen would just be more high-profile.

The beautiful chief frowned and said, "Are you sure?"

"Well, take the stuff over."

The assessment of national alchemists is very difficult. When alchemists do these two refinements, they mostly use thriving plants to improve their success rate. However, only a fresh branch is provided here, covered with oval green leaves.

And there is no supply of clean water, please extract it from the air by yourself.

Zhang Shen could only laugh at this "stingy" style.

I casually drew a refining array on the ground and started it.

The soil surging beside the branches, forming a bluestone water basin. Then, water molecules in a radius of thousands of meters quickly gathered. Soon, clear ripples began to swell at the bottom of the stone basin, becoming deeper and deeper, filling the entire stone basin.

In addition to Zhang Shen, the beautiful chief and the president, there were two guards and one clerk in charge of recording at the assessment site. They all had a certain understanding of alchemy and saw a lot of them.

Zhang Shen's resounding movements and relaxed expression made everyone present judge: this assessment would probably not be difficult for him.

After completing the preparation work, he has to start the real refining. In the mentality of taking the self-study, he does not intend to use dragon vein alchemy or any knowledge related to alchemy.

Photosynthesis, simply put, plants absorb carbon dioxide and water under light conditions to produce organic matter - mainly starch; the respiration effect is just the opposite, consumes starch and other organic matter to produce carbon dioxide and water.

Photosynthesis is undoubtedly simpler than respiration, but in comparison, both are quite difficult because they involve plant cell-level reactions and are not so easy to operate.

This is also the difficulty of national alchemist assessment.

However, for Zhang Shen, such an assessment is not difficult!

He hasn't used such a refining reaction with a fixed refining formula for many years...

With one gaze after another, Zhang Shen skillfully drew and refined the array.

A circle that symbolizes the endless cycle of everything in the world;

Hexagons symbolizing the six supreme and mysterious worlds;

Directly copy the formulas of photosynthesis and respiration, and slightly modify the connection.

Refining the array and starting it!!

The dazzling silver electric light sputtered out of the refining array, half flying into the dense branches and leaves, and half disappearing into the air.

immediately--

The air around began to flow rapidly!

Carbon dioxide and water molecules within a radius of thousands of meters quickly gathered here.

In order to display it vividly, Zhang Shen even let the converged carbon dioxide and water molecules form a sphere visible to the naked eye, suspended on both sides.

Two "balloons" each poked out a "pipe" and connected to the dense blades.

Zhang Shen's mental power penetrated into the plant cells, and suddenly, enlarged plant cell patterns appeared in Zhang Shen's line of sight.

The place for photosynthesis is in the chloroplast. If carbon dioxide molecules and water molecules are absorbed according to normal procedures, it will waste a lot of time to transport them into the chloroplast through one channel. Zhang Shen does not have such free time.

Driven by mental power, carbon dioxide and water molecules directly enter the chloroplast and quickly carry out photosynthesis.

There are hundreds of green leaves on this branch. The number of cells in each green leaf is in units of ten thousand. So many cells perform photosynthesis together, and under the rude drive of Zhang, he did not care about the injury to the body at all, and his efficiency instantly exploded.

Several people present could see the rapid "flow" of carbon dioxide and water molecules.

Among the hundreds of green leaves, only half are undergoing photosynthesis. The other half is naturally reserved for respiration.

Kim Bradley noticed this situation and his pupils couldn't help but shrink. He was even more curious about Zhang Shen who suddenly appeared. He was also proficient in alchemy and naturally understood how powerful control it would take to do so.

Respiration requires consumption of organic matter, and Zhang Shen decided to use half of its own inventory and photosynthesis products in trunk plant cells as the source.

The reaction of photosynthesis is very obvious. After all, carbon dioxide and water molecules are constantly consumed and can be seen by the naked eye. On the contrary, the respiration effect is a little more troublesome. After all, a small amount of carbon dioxide and water molecules cannot be directly seen at the beginning.

Five or six minutes later, everyone saw the two babies' fists as big as air balls.

Carbon dioxide is a colorless gas, and water is similar, but Zhang Shen naturally has ways to make them appear roughly in shape.

After a few minutes, the two gas groups had reached the size of an ostrich egg.

Looking at the branches of the branches, it seems that they have been cut down for a long time and have no life. That is because all the organic matter in the cells is consumed by respiration.

"Okay, that's OK."

Kim Bradley suddenly spoke: "Mr. Zhang Shen has fully proved his strength, so there is no need to continue."

The carbon dioxide concentration was too high, and although Zhang Shen was constrained in a gas mass with his mental power, everyone present felt a little uncomfortable.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shen retracted his mental power and dispersed four qi groups.

Papa. The President took the lead in applauding and celebrated another outstanding alchemist joining the ranks of the national alchemist.

"Welcome to join, Mr. Zhang Shen."

Zhang Shen smiled slightly, showing just the right amount of joy and reserve: "You're welcome, this is my honor."

"I wonder what kind of title Mr. Zhang wants?"

"Title?" Zhang Shen knew that there was such a thing, but he was not very clear about its meaning. "Is there any difference between different titles?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Kim Bradley's eyes: "It's just to let others know you faster. The title is determined based on the alchemist's own expertise and personality."

"That's it," Zhang Shen pondered for a moment, and suddenly smiled, "I've thought about it, and I'll call it--"

"truth!"

ah?!

Everyone present exclaimed in surprise. The smile on the president's face froze and an inexplicable light flashed in his right eye.

After a brief shock, everyone looked at Zhang Shen with overestimating their abilities and disgust.

Take "truth" as the title? You must know that the ultimate pursuit of all alchemists is "truth"!

If you dare to take the name of truth, it would be strange if you don’t cause trouble for the alchemists in other countries. What’s more, the President of this title will never agree.

"Haha, a good idea, I agree!"

What?!

Kim Bradley's statement made everyone's chin fall: This is unscientific!

The President had a playful look on his face: "I am very much looking forward to the day when you become the true alchemist of truth."

Oh, it turns out that the President just wants to watch the fun.

Everyone felt that they understood what Kim Bradley thought, and most of them wanted to see what this arrogant guy ended up with.

"Then, Mr. Zhang, your silver timepiece will be completed today. I will go to the Presidential Palace to receive and receive the award tomorrow." Every national alchemist has a military rank equivalent to a minor, of course, but it is equivalent to having no real power.

"Your Excellency Zhang should be from the Qing Dynasty. You may not know much about the national alchemist. If you have any questions, you can ask Ms. Alia Nosek (the beautiful chief). I will leave first, see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow, Mr. President."

Watching Kim Bradley and others leave, Zhang Shen touched his chin, thinking about something, and his eyes flashed with a glimmer of light.

"I felt a familiar breath...yes, it was the 'fury' among the seven deadly sins... artificial humans, haha, this country is really interesting. artificial humans can even become president, tsk."

"Is this country too open or some ulterior motive?"

"Well, I'm lucky, and I found the clue as soon as I came. But let's just wait and see what's going on."

Immediately, he turned his eyes to the beautiful chief who was standing by the side.

“Alia Nosek?”

"Yes. Zhang, do you need help?" Alia, who had a magic trick in her body, was very enthusiastic. If her subordinates saw it, she would definitely drop her chin.

"Is it OK to give me a certificate or something so that I can go to the library to read books on alchemy?"

"Of course it's okay! Do you need me to accompany you?"

"This... forget it, you go and do it."

…………

Taking Alia's certificate, Zhang Shen went to the National Library again.

The national alchemist assessment took a lot of time (written test, technical examination, spiritual appraisal, interview). Although Zhang Shen completely completed all four items in the fastest time and set a new record. When he arrived at the library again, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

Part of the National Library is open to the citizens of the city, and it is very lively at this time.

Zhang Shen walked around from one side and led by the staff to an area where only national alchemists could enter.

The person responsible for managing the books and materials in this area is a girl in military uniform, who looks like a literary girl.

After reading Alia's proof to her, Zhang Shen walked in and was slightly surprised by the huge collection of books.

The structure inside is a rotunda, with high bookshelfs on all four walls, each of which is filled with thin or thick booklets, and there is almost no gap.

Zhang Shen took a rough look and found that the bookshelf was very clean, without any dust, and the maintenance of the books and materials was done quite well.

There are more than one floor of the library area for national alchemists to check. Zhang Shen found that there were five floors in total. Although the higher the higher the books and materials, the less they stored, it was quite considerable.

Not long after Zhang Shen went in, a fat officer came in, with a cautious smell.

He walked straight to the literary girl, lowered his voice and asked, "Yasmi, have you found the information I told you yesterday?"

Masami looked around for a few times, then took out a stack of material books that looked very old from under the desk and handed them to the man: "It's all here."

"Be careful, don't let people see it." Yami instructed.

"Don't worry, I'll be very careful."

"I'll leave first."

"Yeah, goodbye."

This fat officer is Heymans Bleda.
Chapter completed!
