"That's right, it's enchanted with a frost effect, which can freeze unsuspecting enemies when it causes damage." Angel said.
"Have you really become an alchemist apprentice?!" Nausicaa looked at Angel with a look of shock on her face: "Do you know how much this kind of mortal weapon sells for in the market?"
"I wonder how many magic crystals can be sold for?" Angel estimated.
Nausicaa shook her head with complicated eyes: "The last time I went to the underground market, I saw a machete that also had a frost effect. He asked for a full 130 magic crystals, and he sold it almost as soon as it was put on the shelves."
"This one of yours... the shape is almost up to the level of a famous artist. Coupled with the frost special effects, I estimate it needs at least 15o magic crystal!"
Angel was also stunned.
15o magic crystal?! The materials he needed to refine this weapon were less than 1 magic crystal.
No wonder people with special skills are extremely rich. This is simply huge profits!
Seeing Angel's stunned look, Nausicaa shook her head: "I really envy you. It seems that you won't have to worry about contribution soon..."
Angel scratched his head and didn't know what to say.
Nausicaa looked at Angel's childish performance, and the trace of jealousy in her heart gradually calmed down. She deceived herself and thought to herself: "Maybe, alchemy is really simple. Maybe, Angel's talent is suitable for alchemy.
perhaps,……"
"This is too precious, are you sure you want to give it to me?"
"certainly."
"That would be disrespectful." Nausicaa also liked this short-hand weapon very much. Whether it was its appearance or its power, she was fascinated by it. After playing with it for a while, Nausicaa asked again: "Yes?"
Yeah, you haven’t said the name of this weapon yet?”
"This is the bear claw knife." Angel took advantage of the situation to explain the parameters of this weapon, and also briefly explained its usage: "You can choose the specific name yourself, this is for you. By the way, you
Look inside the finger hole."
Nausicaa looked at the largest of the three finger holes. Her name was engraved on the inner wall in regular universal characters.
"It's all engraved with my name. It seems I can't accept it anymore." Nausicaa paused: "Let's call this weapon Shan Die."
Nausicaa's name simply ignored the flower and only named it a butterfly, which seemed to have some meaning.
Nausicaa held the single butterfly knife and rotated it in her hand, like a fan, drawing a blurry circular shadow.
Then, Nausicaa directly threw the high-rotating single butterfly knife into the air, then stretched out her hand and placed it in the path of the single butterfly knife.
"Nausicaa, you..." Angel didn't understand what Nausicaa was doing. With the sharpness of the single butterfly knife, it was spinning and falling. If the blade was facing her hand, wouldn't it cut her arm in two?
Nausicaa did not answer, but followed Shan Die Dao with solemn eyes.
The single butterfly knife was thrown very high, and then slowly fell... When the single butterfly knife was about to cut Nausicaa's hand, Angel frowned.
Chiliu——
The single butterfly knife swiped across Nausicaa's hand, continued to fall without stopping, and inserted into the table with a clang.
Angel quickly looked at Nausicaa's hand, and there was now a faint bloodstain on her wrist.
Angel's pupils shrank suddenly. Could it be a scratch?
But she saw Nausicaa retract her hand, wipe the blood on her wrist with the pad of her index finger, then put it to her lips and licked it: "I didn't input magic power to Shan Die, and it also brought up frost marks. It seems that I underestimated it."
If you use it, this weapon will be worth at least 200 magic crystals."
"Nausicaa, are you okay?" Angel felt a little relieved when he saw that Nausicaa could move her wrist freely.
"It's okay, it's just a bloody scratch from the frosty air."
"Why are you doing this?" Angel didn't understand what she was doing.
Nausicaa smiled brightly at Angel, then picked up the single butterfly knife on the table. Her thumb, index finger, and middle finger were inserted into the three finger holes. For some reason, Angel always felt that Nausicaa was
There seems to be a faint connection between Sika and Shan Die Dao. Just like everyone and every object has a magnetic field. After getting along for a long time, the magnetic fields between people and objects will gradually become similar, and Nausicaa and Shan Butterfly Dao
Previously, the magnetic fields felt like they were separate, but now they seem to be integrated into one.
It was as if Shan Die Dao had been by Nausicaa's side for decades.
"A ritual." Nausicaa smiled and said: "This is the ritual when a swordsman chooses a weapon. If your hand is cut off, it means that the weapon does not identify with you; on the contrary, it means that the weapon identifies with you and chooses you as your weapon.
A lifelong comrade."
"It seems that this ceremony was very successful." Angel originally wanted to continue asking the questions of 'why' and 'is it worth it', but after thinking about it, he finally did not ask. Values are different from personal pursuits, and there is no need to force requirements.
others.
"Yes, it was very successful." Nausicaa inserted Shandie into her waist casually: "Shandie suits me very well, thank you!"
Angel smiled and shook his head: "If Shan Die is damaged in the future, you can come to me. As a pioneering work of an alchemist, I will repair it for free."
"I will cherish it and try not to let it reunite with you so early." Nausicaa paused: "You can alchemy now, what are your thoughts?"
Angel shook his head: "I don't have any ideas. Alchemy is not easy. It takes a long time and requires concentration. It consumes a lot of energy and energy."
Nausicaa understood: "Yes, when I was studying magic patterns, a classmate said that many alchemists take more than ten years or even longer to produce a finished product. Of course, that refers to advanced alchemical works. As for
As for an alchemy apprentice, it should take a long time to produce a work, right? I heard that there is an intermediate alchemy apprentice in the underground market, what is his name?"
Angel: "Promi?"
Nausicaa nodded: "Yes, it's Master Prome. I heard that he only produces one work every half a year."
Angel was silent: "..." He just lamented that it takes a long time. He really felt that it took a long time. It takes more than a day to refine a work... But after hearing what Nausicaa said, he suddenly
I think it's a good thing he didn't say how long it took to refine.
As far as alchemy is concerned, the main reason why Angel can make alchemy so fast is that his blueprints are ready-made and enchanting is easy; for other alchemists, it takes a long time just to design the blueprints and memorize the magic patterns, which also takes half a year.
Producing a piece of work is already considered efficient.
…
That night, Angel stayed in the cave and had a dinner together, eating barbecue.
Salum heard that Angel was successful in alchemy and spent the whole night asking about the matter. Angel also took the trouble to answer all questions.
Amidst talking and laughing, this warm dinner ended with Salum snoring.
"It's great to be young. You can sleep whenever you want." Nausicaa smoked a cigarette. "I don't even remember the last time I slept. I use meditation instead of rest every day."
Angel wanted to say "why bother working so hard", but in the end he still didn't say it. It was still a matter of values.
After sending Sarum back, Angel was also ready to say goodbye to Nausicaa.
"I'll take you back, I'll go out to get some fresh air," Nausicaa said.
The whole journey was silent. When Angel's home was in sight, Nausicaa suddenly said: "Hook Dick was taken out by his mentor. You don't have to worry about his problems for the time being, but he has spread a lot of things about you recently."
Related rumors."
"I know, Sarum told me last time."
"Aren't you worried? He said in rumors that you are incompetent, that you take up resources, that you have no talent, and that you only know how to hide behind others."
"Does anyone believe it?" Angel said.
Nausicaa raised her eyebrows: "As long as they know that the person behind you is Mr. Sanders, almost no one will believe it. Of course, there are also some fools."
"Then it's over. Rumors will always be blown away by the rain of reality." Angel suddenly remembered what Jon said: "Their various suspicions and comments about me are not enough to constitute one ten thousandth."
I can see them clearly."
"Indeed, the more you spread rumors, the more incompetent you become, which is obvious to them." Nausicaa smiled: "I didn't expect you to be a thinker."
"Since you have figured it out, I won't say more. I hope to see you reach the top soon. Good night, young man."
…
After returning home, Angel counted the time. According to Butler Goode, the news of the opening of the Purification Garden should spread in a month and a half.
In order to avoid the powerful experts who came after hearing the news, Angel must find a way to reach the top within one and a half months.
Time is running out.
Angel decided to spend the next half month trying his best to create the alchemy weapons he needed and become proficient in using the selected techniques.
Half a month's time flies by.
When the last day of the spring festival month came, Angel put on a black sheet and walked out of the house.
Toby fluttered his wings and landed on Angel's shoulder, and rubbed his head against Angel's face.
"Today I will start climbing the tower. You don't have to go up for the time being. First, get familiar with the arena environment." Angel said to Toby. He also spent a lot of time in the past few days to contact and cooperate with Toby. After Toby understood the gravity context,
, its lethality skyrocketed.
Angel originally thought that with his alchemy weapon, he would be able to easily defeat Toby. However, this was not the case. In a one-on-one battle, Toby's speed was far beyond his imagination. The weapon he refined was a long-range weapon.
When Toby's figure cannot be aimed at, it is useless no matter how powerful it is.
However, in the battle with Toby, Angel also understood his own shortcomings. It is indeed more difficult for him to face off against players of different sizes. With his shortcomings, Angel naturally has to find a solution. In the past few days,
He came up with several plans, all of which could effectively prevent speedy players from approaching. Of course, the best way is for Toby to go on the court and fight head-on.
It can be said that Angel has made up his mind to go rogue.
All attacks rely on external force, alchemical weapons and Tobi.
The tricks I learned were all defensive and control ones, and I would drag my opponent to death!
When he arrived at the Sky Tower, the first floor was still very lively. Angel watched a few games casually and got a little sure about the level of the contestants.
Although it still looked pretty rough, at least it was more intense than that day's "King of Beasts vs. Immortal Ice Emperor", with contestants coming and going, and the mortals cheering.
When it was almost time, Angel came to the sky tower registration office.
