Chapter 355 - 223: The Name of Eagle Territory, Great Pharmacist Samp
As Rajos discussed slave trading with his father, somewhere else in the Tulip Royal Capital, a convoy quietly entered the capital.
The convoy was unremarkable.
It was just an ordinary knight convoy, guarded by only one Great Knight.
In the entire capital, it was not expected to draw anyone’s attention.
However, as the convoy entered the city, many could not help but turn their heads.
Because at this moment, the eagle emblem hanging from the convoy clearly indicated its identity.
——Dressrosa.
In the past half month, this originally unremarkable nobility gained fame throughout the entire capital.
The Spencer Family, well-known even in the capital, was easily defeated by the Dressrosa Family, which became the first Count’s Clan to elevate a Sky Knight in a hundred years.
How could the nobles in the capital not be filled with curiosity?
Meanwhile, Christine in the convoy couldn’t help but recall what the Lord had instructed her.
The Lord wanted her to bring more pharmacists.
Initially, she was full of confidence, but now she couldn’t help feeling a bit anxious.
On her return journey, she received news that her mentor, Great Pharmacist Samp, had accepted an invitation from the Campbell Family.
The Campbell Family was a powerful Marquis Family.
In comparison, the Dressrosa Family seemed inferior, not to mention her own Lord’s territory.
"Ferrenel, let’s head to North City Academy first."
Her thoughts swirling, Christine spoke up.
"Yes!"
Outside, a knight nodded.
He then drove the carriage toward North City Academy.
Having accompanied the Lord Count to the capital years ago, he was quite familiar with it and drove the carriage based on memory, heading for North City Academy.
However, Ferrenel found today’s capital somewhat peculiar.
Normally, within the capital, a convoy belonging to a Count’s Clan like theirs would frequently need to yield, but today, it hadn’t happened once.
Some nobles, upon seeing their convoy from afar, proactively made way.
Even some Marquis Families seemed to do the same.
This left Ferrenel puzzled.
Nonetheless, he knew now was not the time to ponder.
The convoy continued forward, soon arriving at the North City locale.
Unlike other noble territories, the Tulip Kingdom’s capital was extremely vast, divided into east, south, west, and north sections, each with respective academies established according to the Empire’s academy system.
They were East City Academy, West City Academy, North City Academy, and South City Academy.
The four major academies primarily enrolled noble descendants.
The largest was East City Academy, generally attended by royal family members and powerful Dukes’ descendants.
In comparison, the other three academies were somewhat inferior.
North City Academy was ranked lower.
Many students hailed from Count’s Clan, and even some from Baron and Viscount backgrounds, as well as Court Nobles’ descendants.
Great Pharmacist Samp was a lecturer at North City Academy.
The convoy stopped at the entrance of North City Academy.
Soon a knight swiftly came forward to report the information.
"Are you seeking an audience with Great Pharmacist Samp?"
"Please wait a moment."
The knight’s squire glanced at the Dressrosa emblem, then nodded and went straight into the academy.
Meanwhile, everyone waited.
At the same time.
In the center of North City Academy.
Within a huge teaching building.
There existed a sizable laboratory building filled with various test tubes and peculiar potions.
"Teacher, the Campbell Family has more resources and a Tier Three Mage. If you go there, you’ll surely be valued, and Marquis Campbell has promised to grant your descendants an opportunity to be a Pioneer Knight."
"This is an extremely generous offer, better than what’s here at this academy."
A middle-aged man tried to persuade.
Yet the elderly man beside him remained unmoved, still mixing his potions, his mind solely focused on them.
"Teacher!"
The middle-aged man intensified his persuasion as he noticed the elder’s indifference.
But at that moment, there was a gentle knock on the door.
Stopping the impending conversation.
The elder paused his actions for the first time.
"Come in!"
The elder spoke softly.
Ignoring the middle-aged man.
This made the middle-aged man’s face turn somewhat sullen.
"Great Pharmacist Samp, someone is seeking you."
"It’s said to be your student Christine!"
A figure walked in, respectfully addressing Pharmacist Samp.
His reverence for Pharmacist Samp was profound, not just his alone, but the entire North City Academy, and even everyone in the capital revered Great Pharmacist Samp.
It was thanks to Great Pharmacist Samp’s presence that the lower-level nobles and knights had opportunities.
Remember, a hundred years ago, due to the shortage of mages in the kingdom, the price of Life Potions wasn’t what it is now; even the lowest level Life Potion cost over a thousand Gold Coins, possibly even thousands.
Intermediate Life Potions could reach tens of thousands of Gold Coins.
Not to mention the lower-level nobles, even a typical Count’s Clan could hardly afford them.
