Alice waited expectantly in front of the teleportation array at Caesar's manor. Not long after, Caesar's butler Weiland invited Wright over.
"Your Highness, what do you want from me?" Wright asked.
Alice said: "Of course I'm looking for you about alchemy. Today is the first day of the preliminary round. I believe you have seen the questions in the preliminary round."
"Well, it's not difficult to refine a magic-resistant cloak." Wright said.
Alice said happily: "That's great, then you can teach me how to do it. I also want to learn how to make alchemy."
Wright said: "Okay, but..."
"But what?" Alice asked.
Wright said: "Princess, do you want to experience the fun of alchemy?"
"Yes." Alice nodded excitedly.
Wright said: "Then don't do it in Lord Caesar's alchemy room. He has almost everything here, including rich materials. If you want to experience the joy of alchemy, you have to start from the very beginning. That would be really interesting."
."
Alice's eyes lit up: "Okay, what should we do then? Master said that alchemy requires thinking through all the steps, including what materials to choose, but I have only read the book for a few days and I don't understand these."
Wright thought for a while and said: "Well, leave it to me to conceive the equipment. Princess, let's start by selecting the materials. But we don't choose them in Caesar's warehouse. It's more interesting to collect them ourselves."
"Yeah." Alice said, "Wait a minute, I'll ask Master to go with me."
The three people came to the street, and Wright said: "To make an anti-magic cloak, the materials selected are mainly magic-resistance and magic-interference materials. However, the general effect of magic-resistance materials is not very good.
The good ones are more expensive, so most people choose to use substances that can interfere with magic power. Such materials are easier to find on the market, but they have a fatal flaw..."
"I know." Alice interrupted: "It will also interfere with the owner's magic."
"Hmm." Wright nodded: "So what we have to do is collect these materials and find a way to eliminate this negative characteristic."
Bingzhixie said: "Listen to what you said, do you already have a method?"
Wright said: "Yes. I have thought up a refining plan for Her Royal Highness the Princess. It should be feasible. What we have to do now is to prepare the required materials."
Alice said in surprise: "Ah! My master said that if you want to refine a new item, sometimes it will take days or even months just to conceive it. How come you figured it out so quickly? Could it be...
…Did you cheat and someone told you the questions for the preliminary round in advance?”
"No, no, no, of course not." Wright said with a smile: "I thought of it so quickly because since I participated in this competition, of course I have been making preparations for this. Mr. Bing Zhixie is right,
Generally speaking, if alchemy is suddenly used to make a new item, it does take a long time from conception to material selection to completion. But for people like me who were born in the land of alchemy, for alchemy
Naturally, we are more familiar with and understand the skills and methods than others. As for making an anti-magic cloak, because its requirements are relatively comprehensive and it has a good effect on whether the alchemist is qualified, it is listed here.
Or even one of the quizzes from other local unions.”
"Oh." Alice smiled apologetically: "I thought you relied on your identity to know the test questions in advance."
Wright said: "I will never do this. This is the dignity of being a professional alchemist." He added: "After the preliminary questions came out this morning, I conceived several different ways to make them at home.
To make this cloak, I had a rough refining outline in mind. In addition, I have done this before, so this question is not too difficult. On the way out, I had already figured out how to do it.
."
"Wow, that's amazing." Alice exclaimed, "You said it's not difficult, but when I listened to the question, many alchemists said it was too difficult."
Wright said: "I can't say it's amazing. I just loved alchemy since I was a child, and I devoted myself to it every day. When I competed, I naturally seemed better than others. Because of this, my mother often said that I didn't socialize with other people of the same age.
Woolen cloth."
"Haha." Alice covered her mouth and smiled: "When you become as famous an alchemist as Uncle Caesar in the future, the Duchess will not say anything."
Wright said: "So I must get first place in the competition this time. Only in this way can I go to the Holy Garden to study."
"Then keep working hard, I believe you will succeed." Alice said.
"Thanks."
Alice said: "Then let's start preparing the materials. What do we need?"
Wright said a dozen things at once.
"Does it take so many things to make a cloak?" Alice asked.
"Yes." Wright said: "Alchemy is a very complicated process. In comparison, these things are not much."
"Okay, let's go buy it quickly. After buying all these things one by one, we will start alchemy immediately." Alice ran to the material market impatiently, and turned back from time to time to urge: "Master,
Wright, hurry up!"
While purchasing materials, Wright carefully explained to Alice the characteristics, negative effects, and origin of various materials. Through the purchase of materials, Alice also learned a lot of things, at least she didn't know about them before.
Small and inconspicuous things can have several different effects in alchemy. Among all professions in the world, alchemists can be said to be the most knowledgeable and knowledgeable group about the properties of elements and natural substances.
After some shopping, he only bought fourteen of the seventeen alchemy materials Wright mentioned. In this city known as the hometown of alchemists, there are still a few simple materials that cannot be purchased.
Alice said: "There are really too many people participating in the competition, and even these materials have been sold out."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Bingzhixie said: "In such a big city, which is also known as the hometown of alchemy, how can these ordinary materials be sold out? I think it's not just the alchemists participating in the competition
, I’m afraid the citizens in the city are also buying it.”
Wright nodded: "Yes. It is like this in every competition. Although many citizens in the city have not participated in the competition, they will try to refine the items required by the competition questions to see what level they have reached.
."
Alice counted: "Ancient wood fossils, luminous sand, and green bead snail shells. We are still short of these three materials."
"Ye Ming Sha and green pearl snail shells are both easy to handle. I know there are many abandoned sewers in the city where bats hang out. Green pearl snails can also be found on the grasslands in the countryside. The more difficult thing is ancient wood fossils.
This material is not rare, but it is not that easy to get." Wright said: "If you use magic and special methods to make your own ancient wood fossil, it won't work in time. Lord Caesar should have it in stock in his warehouse, but
If you go there and get it..."
Alice immediately said: "I won't get it. I think alchemy is about finding fun. If you rely on the current things, you will lose the joy of doing it yourself. As you said before, I must find the materials and then do it myself.
Refining this cloak."
"In this case, if we can't find ancient wood fossils, we have to find a substitute material." Wright thought about it.
Bing Zhixie thought for a moment and suddenly said: "Wright, if you want ancient wood fossils, do you want to use them to isolate other materials from interfering with the caster's magic?"
Wright said: "My plan is to make the cloak into two layers, the outer layer is used to isolate magic, and then use ancient wood fossils and other materials to attach an inner layer under the cloak to separate the outer layer, so that it will not
The caster has no influence. Mr. Bingzhixie, do you have any good ideas?"
Bing Zhixie asked in return: "Is there a kind of fungus called the Strange Straw Mushroom in the area of Yalant?"
"Yes." Wright nodded.
"That's enough." Bingzhixie said: "Use the rhizome of the fungus straw mushroom and the horn of the thunder-horned rhinoceros after drying in the sun and grinding them into powder respectively, and then use the fire element to use the temperature of 85 degrees and 210 degrees,
Melt these two things into colloid respectively. At the same time, use the blood of humans or ordinary creatures, add pure water and the juice of the dela fruit, and extract a kind of light yellow crystal particles. Then these particles,
Melt it together with the two previous colloids, wrap it with 110-degree fire elements and water elements, and cook it for fifteen minutes. Finally, use magic control to lower its temperature to about 60 degrees and apply it on
The inside of the cloak can achieve the same effect as ancient wood fossils."
Alice said: "Wait a minute, Master, please speak slowly. It's too complicated. I didn't hear it clearly. Say it again."
Bing Zhixie repeated it again.
"Is there such a way to make alternative materials? I don't know." Wright carefully recalled the various material properties Bing Zhixie said: "Is it really possible?"
Alice was slightly angry and said: "My master says it can be done. Huh, it seems that my master is more powerful and knows everything."
"It seems that I don't know enough about the characteristics of some materials." Wright smiled awkwardly, and he admired this young wizard who didn't talk much.
