41: Invited to form a team

After upgrading to Intermediate Apothecary, the Materials Li Changkong purchased also found their use.

"Slug slime, plus black wolf claws, can be synthesized into Elementary Recovery Potions."

"Direwolf teeth, plus Anti-Dragon fur, can be synthesized into Elementary Magic Potions."

As he reached Intermediate Apothecary, many new Apothecary synthesis formulas appeared in his mind.

In his newly bought house, Li Changkong specifically set aside a room as an Apothecary room.

After some crafting, more than a dozen bottles of Elementary Recovery Potions and Elementary Magic Potions were produced.

"I didn't expect so few perfect grades; most are excellent."

Looking at the Potions he had made, Li Changkong grumbled with some dissatisfaction.

If these words were heard by other Apothecaries, they would surely be infuriated.

For ordinary Apothecaries, even Intermediate Apothecaries, producing perfect Potions was a very rare probability.

Most of them produced ordinary or inferior Potions.

Moreover, from Apprentice Apothecary to Intermediate Apothecary, it often required several years of effort.

If Potion crafting was successful, there would be an experience bonus.

If crafting failed, the experience bonus would be very small.

However, Li Changkong was completely different; the experience he gained in one go was already massive.

For the next two days, Li Changkong was refining Potions.

The number of Potions finally refined was quite substantial.

However, it was a pity that after two days of equipment rebates, his Apothecary Rank still hadn't reached Advanced.

Once one reached Advanced Apothecary, they would often be treated as honored guests by major powers.

If it were a Martial Artist, there would also be a limit.

But an Apothecary was completely different; an Apothecary could often create many strong individuals.

Moreover, if any difficult and complicated illnesses were encountered, Advanced Apothecaries could often cure them with medicine.

To some extent, an Apothecary was actually also a doctor.

Just as Li Changkong finished refining Potions today, he received a message.

Li Changkong was also surprised to see who sent the message; he didn't expect it to be Xu Chuchu.

"Junior, do you have any free time recently?"

"Not much; I'm basically just grinding dungeons. Is there something you need?"

Since the other party asked, they must have something they wanted to ask for, so Li Changkong simply replied.

"We're planning to clear a Rank 30 dungeon this time, and we're short on people, so we wanted to ask if you have time."

Xu Chuchu said very directly.

Li Changkong didn't expect to be asked to team up again. He usually didn't like teaming up with others, so he instinctively wanted to refuse.

Firstly, he didn't want to expose too much of his strength, and even less did he want others to know the abilities of the People's Teacher profession.

After all, the People's Teacher profession was indeed a bit too abnormal.

If others knew the effect of this profession, he might encounter some trouble.

Secondly, the speed of teaming up to clear monsters had no bonus for him, so there was even less need for him to waste time.

"This dungeon is a bit special, which is why we wanted to bring others along; we really are short on people."

Seeing that Li Changkong didn't reply for a while, Xu Chuchu sent another message.

Seeing that the other party had already said so, Li Changkong knew that continuing to refuse would be impolite.

The Rose Guild had helped him before, and Li Changkong was not the kind of person who forgot kindness.

Having thought this through, he agreed to the matter.

"When will that dungeon open?"

Li Changkong was a bit confused.

"It'll probably open tomorrow. This time, it's not people from our Guild clearing the dungeon, but a few of my classmates."

"Their Ranks are all in their twenties, almost thirty."

Xu Chuchu continued.

According to Li Changkong's SSS Rank evaluation, Xu Chuchu guessed that his Rank should also be in the early twenties.

Although she didn't know how Li Changkong managed to raise his Rank so much in such a short time.

But she didn't ask further; as professionals, everyone has their own secrets.

After settling this matter, the two prepared to meet tomorrow.

As for Li Changkong, he was preparing to enroll Li Wanwan in a tutoring class.

Li Wanwan was about to go on summer vacation, and the big exam was in another year.

Li Changkong naturally couldn't let her be idle during this summer vacation; a tutoring class was a must.

...

The next day.

After receiving Xu Chuchu's notification, Li Changkong arrived outside the dungeon.

Outside the dungeon, some team members were already waiting.

On the way, Li Changkong also encountered several members of the Overbearing Guild.

Perhaps it was because of the previous battle that people knew there was a conflict between Li Changkong and the Overbearing Guild.

Those members of the Overbearing Guild even walked around him after seeing Li Changkong.

As time went on, Li Changkong's reputation not only didn't decrease but had even grown larger.

A small newcomer, soloing more than ten Guild experts.

Just this gimmick alone greatly increased Li Changkong's fame.

Even now, Li Changkong already had a fan club on the forums.

And among the fan club, the vast majority were newcomers.

Because newcomers had just entered the dungeon, they were often ridiculed by some veterans.

After the video of Li Changkong's solo challenge was released this time, it naturally made many newcomers feel proud.

Of course, Li Changkong didn't know about this, nor did he care at all.

As soon as Li Changkong arrived outside the dungeon, he saw Xu Chuchu's beautiful figure.

From a distance, one could see Xu Chuchu wearing a white leather armor.

The leather armor tightly enveloped her body, and her graceful figure appeared even more alluring under theset off of the leather armor.

Her appearance and her figure could be said to be completely inversely proportional.

With a seductive figure, she had an exceptionally pure face.

The eyes of some passing men even locked onto her instantly.

"This is the junior you mentioned? I didn't expect him to be so handsome."

Beside Xu Chuchu, there was also a girl with fiery red hair.

The girl was holding a shield, so she should be a Shield Warrior.

This was probably the first time Li Changkong had seen a woman choose to become a Shield Warrior.

Although the choice of profession was indeed without rules, most Shield Warriors were still sturdy men.

"Taken with him?"

Xu Chuchu smiled faintly, teasing her.

"This is your junior, how dare I be taken with him? I wouldn't dare to compete with you."

The girl giggled twice, joking.
