Chapter 182: New Beta Test Player (Part 2)
On the surface, he was just an Alchemist, but in reality, he had a good relationship with the Magic Tower.
The Alchemist Guild also contacted the Magic Tower from time to time, so he was the perfect person for this task.
When Hallyne arrived at the Magic Tower, everyone there passed by him with cold expressions.
Except for those who knew him, no one greeted him.
This scene was quite different from what he was used to in Ulon City.
Walking along, Hallyne sighed quietly to himself.
Even Hanjun knew how exclusive the Magic Tower could be, and he wanted to use that exclusivity to change the situation in this world.
Hallyne really liked the environment of Ulon City.
After realizing that Hanjun might actually have the ability to make these changes, he decided he was willing to help, even if it meant making this trip.
Hallyne arrived at the door of an old acquaintance's room.
He knocked on the door with his staff and then listened closely.
Sure enough, he heard an annoyed voice from inside.
"Who is disturbing my sleep in broad daylight?"
Then, with hurried footsteps, Hallyne smiled with satisfaction, put away his staff, and waited at the door for someone to answer.
The door was suddenly flung open, and a man in pajamas, looking unkempt and with a face ready to scold, appeared.
But when he saw Hallyne, he frowned and held back his anger.
"Hallyne, why is it you, you old geezer?"
Hallyne nodded at him, "Vundo Polestar, you still have such an irregular schedule."
Vundo, with a beard that hadn't been trimmed in months, rolled his eyes, "Even if you know I have an irregular schedule, you still choose this time to knock on my door. You really have some nerve."
Hallyne said, "Sorry, but I'm here for something important."
Vundo stared at him for a while.
Hallyne sighed and said, "For something this important, aren't you going to invite me in first so we can talk?"
Vundo gave a helpless gesture and turned around to walk back into the room.
Hallyne, knowing the place well, walked right in and closed the door behind him.
Inside, the room was as messy as Vundo himself, with nowhere to step without tripping over something.

Fortunately, Hallyne was used to Vundo's ways and knew he didn't like having guests.
The room was not set up for visitors; all the tables were covered with research equipment and books, and the sofa was piled with a messy heap of clothes that hadn't been cleaned for a long time.
Vundo waved his wand, and a fresh wooden table and chairs appeared in the middle of the room.
Then he brought over two cups and placed them on the table.
Hallyne took a seat on one of the chairs, sipped the water from his cup, and frowned.
Vundo casually said, "Sorry, I haven't been out of the house for months. This is the only drinkable thing left."
Hallyne didn't continue to complain.
Instead, he pulled a small flask out of his bag, muttering, "Good thing I brought this little treasure with me."
Vundo looked at his actions, "What, have you invented something new again?"
Hallyne held up the flask and said, "This? I got the idea in Ulon Town. It's a flask that keeps liquids at a fixed temperature, and it's filled with a lot of good stuff."
Vundo raised an eyebrow, "Ulon Town? Did you really go there alone, like they said? What's so good about that place? The demon army is almost there. Are you looking for trouble?"
Hallyne waved his hand dismissively, "If I were looking for trouble, would I still be here? Ulon Town is a good place. It gave me a lot of inspiration..."
Vundo cut him off without mercy, "No matter how good Ulon Town is, when the demon army attacks, no one will be able to resist them."
Hallyne replied, "So what? At least the people there are doing their best to survive."
Vundo scoffed, "If you came here just to say that, you can leave now."
Hallyne knew he needed to take it slow.
He opened the lid of the flask, turned it upside down, and made it into two small cups.
Then he poured some of the contents into a cup and placed it in front of Vundo.
"Let's not talk about that. Try this first."
Vundo looked at the transparent, bubbling liquid and thought of unpleasant things.
His face didn't look too happy, "This is...?"
Hallyne smiled, drinking from his own cup in one gulp while watching Vundo, "What's the matter? Don't worry, this isn't some potion I brewed. It's a special product from Ulon Town. Not everyone gets a chance to taste it."
Vundo still looked doubtful and didn't dare to drink.
He had been fooled too many times before and wasn't going to risk drinking something given to him by someone else.
Hallyne didn't say much more and felt satisfied after drinking a cup.
Even though his small flask had a few bottles of Chupa Chups, there would always come a day when it ran out.
Vundo didn't touch the drink in front of him.
Instead, he asked, "So? Did you come here just to make me try this?"
Hallyne smiled, "You're still as impatient as ever."
Vundo grew annoyed, "If you've got something to say, say it quickly, or I'll get back to my own work."
Hallyne thought he had done enough and got to the point, "Alright, actually, I came here to invite you to settle down in Ulon Town."
"Huh?" Vundo looked at Hallyne in disbelief, "Do you even know what you're saying?"
Hallyne knew Vundo would react this way as soon as he said it.
Wizard and Warlocks had always been against the Church of Light, so it was unlikely Vundo would willingly agree to go to Ulon Town with him.
However, before he came, Hanjun had told him a few things, and with his own efforts, there might be a chance.
