Dilemma

Clearly, Mafa Merlin had been jointly recommended by Jouyi and Osul due to some achievements he had attained while working on the Fanrusen Formula. Otherwise, a peak Archmage and an Artisan wouldn't have recommended him together.

But in everyone's eyes, his achievement would at most have been suggesting some new train of thought during the research, or perhaps performing a particular calculation that had been causing trouble. They felt that the "huge contribution" was most likely an exaggeration from Jouyi and Osul.

Originally, everyone had only assumed their proposal was something routine.

But now, everyone felt weird.

What was this situation!

Jouyi's words seemed to suggest that this young Great Mage was the one that personally cracked the Fanrusen Formula.

Their first reaction was to wonder whether Jouyi was a bit too drunk...

Why else would he say something like this?
