Chapter 957 Twenty-four. New Year gifts

  【Write down what you know about the refining steps of a basic potion or basic alchemy item:】

  【Clear water to fill the crucible two-thirds, mash the wormwood...】

   After completing the Alchemy Level 1 trial, Lu Li left the classroom.

  There is only one day left until the New Year, and the New Year’s arrangement of the tree canopy has been completed: the fluorescent alchemy slate is like a neon light, and the branches painted with green paint adorn the promenade inside the giant tree.

   False and beautiful.

   The auditorium in the same dress seemed more lively than usual. The students were elated because of the decorations or with gifts.

   During the dinner, the professor announced that the New Year's dinner will start in the auditorium hall tomorrow night.

   Excited faces show that many students will have insomnia tonight.

   The night is silent and dreamless.

   The next morning, Lu Li woke up.

  The businessman Anthony stood quietly beside the bed.

"What's wrong."

The    merchant should have just appeared, otherwise it will wake up Lu Li lacking emotion.

   "Your gift." Merchant Anthony opened his backpack and took out the simple packaged gift——

   New Year's gift from hell.

   Ophelia's gift is the fuzzy, unrecognizable silhouette naturally formed by cooling lava. But if it is regarded as a statue of Ophelia, it can be regarded as vivid.

  【With her you will always feel my love】

   is written on the paper with the statue of Ophelia.

The gift of   Prusius is a clumsy, scribbled diary of what he saw in hell. For example, those nasty evil demons are stupid and fierce, and always regard him as food. Another example is when he saw that Ophelia wanted to paint an oil painting for Lu Li, but Haders always said she was wasting, and her paintings were really bad.

   After flipping through a few pages, Lu Lihe started Purseus' diary. Look at the next gift -

   Even Hades brought Lu Li a New Year's gift: a rock from hell.

   There is no carving, no features, even if the eyes are out of focus and hazy to observe this rock that still smells of sulphur of hell, it is difficult to feel any abstract pattern symbols.

   Considering the characteristics of Hadersgrand, this should be a stone he picked up at random.

  The rock is stuck with a note: Returning gifts is an indispensable part of the New Year!

   Finally, is a separate note without a signature: [The gift is good news: Father is patrolling the territory, you have enough time to master the cursed title]

   Put the other gifts except the Devil's Daughter's note on the desk, burn the note, and Lu Li began to prepare the gift in return.

Ophelia's return was a dark pink openwork gold silk evening dress, and a sturdy workman's dress; Physius' return was several books of fairy tales and biographical novels; Hades' return was a dress 100 one-shilling coins in a gift box; even the Devil's Daughter--

   "Can the Devil's Daughter find you?"

   "Has eyeballs."

   So the gift to the devil's daughter was a black tuxedo.

   These will be purchased by the merchant Anthony and sent to hell.

   After doing this, Lu Li left the dormitory and went to the auditorium along the promenade with a strong New Year atmosphere.

   Obviously, Lu Li will receive more gifts than these today.

   At breakfast time, students came to Lu Li almost all the time and gave him gifts. Even the professors put their gifts on the top of the gift pile with a smile.

   The tabletop quickly couldn't hold these colorful gift boxes, and they piled up at the feet.

   Dogmeat is envious, and even Fudot received several exquisite gift boxes.

   Quietly stuffed into the pile of gifts at Lu Li's feet, Fudot was unbearable by the pitiful gaze of a dog-meat puppy, and hummed, "Where's your gift?"

   "I only have two friends, you and Lu Li." Gourou was dejected.

   "I'm not your friend!"

   "But the language class professor said that if you are together, you are friends...you guys are the longest I've known!"

  Fudot looked away and muttered softly, "Wait... your gift is not ready yet."

  Lu Li left the auditorium a little later than usual, because he called the businessman Anthony to send the gift to the bedroom, and then asked him to send the next gift straight back to the bedroom.

   After the morning mystery class, divination class, and alchemy class, Lu Li went back to the dormitory to deal with his New Year's gift.

  Books, many books, almost every gift package is a book.

  The students seem to think that Lu Li, who carries books every day, likes to read books.

   Although this is true, many books that are given as gifts are temporarily unavailable to Lu Li.

   Stacked fairy tales and novels, and asked the merchant Anthony to give them to Pusius, and the remaining books that could be used or could not be used were filled into the empty bookshelves.

   While opening the gift, Lu Li was also recording the return gift.

   For those students who don't know, Lu Li's return gift is also a book, and some students who are known by Lu Li's return gift are more directional.

  For example, Jerry the Floating, who is haunted by nightmares every night because of his talent. Lu Li's gift was the first bottle of Dream Elixir that he kept as a souvenir.

   And dog meat. Although he was so poor that he only gave Lu Li a blessing at breakfast, Lu Li's return gift was a box of canned food.

   Nearly unpacked endless gifts, mostly books, with a few exceptions.

  Professor Chris did the same thing as him: he sent a 98% pass rate of Sweet Dream Elixir. Leave a message, even if it is a dragon, it will be a sweet dream.

  The old professor's gift was two wooden boxes. One wooden box was full of candies, and the other was empty. He hoped that Lu Li would have the opportunity to bring sunshine from the land of light.

  The Unnamed Lady is a piece of divination: she predicts that Lu Li may be lucky or unfortunate in the future.

  Mateus' gift is a copy oil painting, the main character is Lu Li himself.

   "What is the food shortage in Wiener Antifreeze Port?" Lu Li asked.

  The answer from the merchant Anthony was that hundreds of thousands of people were starving and could only be guaranteed a meal for two days.

  Lu Li can support the entire Wiener ice-free port.

   But collecting and transporting food for hundreds of thousands of people is not something three merchants can do.

  Lu Li allows merchants to purchase a large amount of canned food or weird meat from the Dweller Chamber of Commerce, and send them to the Wiener Antifreeze Port without restrictions.

   This is Lu Li's New Year's gift to the citizens.

   After opening the last gift, it was still a book, which was not signed, but was covered with the family crest of the Lins family.

   "Strange Title Controller", Lu Li is in need of this book.

   Lu Li's gift in return is also a book called "Tracking and Anti-Tracking Skills".

   Lu Li hoped that Fudot could make better use of the black bugs, but Fudot didn’t think so.

"Humph!"

   During lunch time, I felt that Lu Li was mocking his own Fudot sitting far away.

   Her place was quickly occupied by a young man who was a little sluggish because of his teeth. He took out the note, but it was not a gift: he hoped that Lu Li would sign his diary.

   For the entire afternoon that followed, the students were somewhat absent-minded, with some kind of anticipation.

   Waiting for the night to come, the New Year's dinner begins.
