Although the kraft paper looks wrinkled, this is actually due to the kraft paper itself. The corners are not fluffy and are sewn with delicate gold thread. This shows that Kael usually protects it.
But can kraft paper become a treasure?
Angel looked over.
It would be fine if there was a sentimental letter on the vellum paper, but the paper is not a letter, there is almost no words on it.
There is only one theorem formula recorded on the paper.
Angel took one look and knew that this formula should be a variation of a certain basic spatial formula. Such variations based on formulas are very common in the wizarding world, and sometimes they can even extend a whole "new world".
At this time, the so-called variant form is no longer called a variant form, but has become a new theorem.
This is actually the concept of the knowledge tree.
Many new ideas, new fields, and even new "structures," "partitions," and "factions" have slowly sprouted, grown, and extended from the original seed of knowledge.
Correspondingly, starting from a certain basic formula, continuously extending it, and finally extending and deforming it into a new formula, this is the so-called branch effect.
"Is this a variant of your research?" Angel thought for a moment: "Bazel's biphasic formula?"
Kael was holding the leather paper in his hand a little depressed, his eyes were gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking. It wasn't until he heard Angel's voice that he raised his head.
Kael forced a smile: "As expected of you, my lord, I can tell at a glance that this is... a transformation of Bazel's biphasic formula."
After finishing speaking, Kael felt a gust of hot wind coming from behind him. He turned around in confusion, only to see Vai's face coming close to him, almost touching each other.
"Why are you here?" Kael subconsciously took two steps back and tightened the wrinkled paper in his hand.
Vai also stopped and scratched his head in confusion: "Did I scare you? I'm sorry. I'm just curious, is this piece of paper your treasure?"
Kael did not reply, but asked: "Where is your crystal ball?"
Vai pointed to the box of Sithia in the distance: "I threw the crystal ball into the box, and then a female voice came from inside, saying that my crystal ball was a treasure, and then gave it to me."
Vai opened his palms, and immediately there was a red light symbol slowly rising from his palms.
"Is this the ticket?" Kael asked doubtfully.
Vai: "It should be... I don't know actually. Anyway, I was given this. I used my mental power to sense it. It seems to be some kind of energy structure, without entity."
After Vai finished explaining, he looked at the leather paper in Kael's hand again: "What were you talking about with Master Chao Dimension just now? This leather paper is your treasure?"
Kael: "You didn't say anything. Your Excellency just pointed out the original form of my modified form."
After Kael finished speaking, he was silent for a while before continuing: "Yes, this piece of paper is my treasure, but I don't know if it can be recognized."
Vai curiously observed the line of variations on the vellum: "Ordinary kraft paper, ordinary ink, and a row of... uh, incomprehensible formulas. Is this formula valuable?"
Kael shook his head: "...It's worthless."
"Since it has no value, why do you call it a treasure?" Vai asked doubtfully.
Kael opened his mouth, but no sound came out for a long time.
At this time, Angel spoke up and said, "I have said before that Sisia's definition of treasure is not simply value. More importantly, its meaning to traders is just like your crystal ball, isn't it?
?"
Vai thought for a while: "That's right, I was the one who was abrupt."
Kael quickly waved his hand: "No, my piece of paper is really ordinary, not as good as your crystal ball."
Kael: "This piece of paper is actually..."
Just as Kael was speaking halfway, a lazy voice came from not far away: "Isn't this the leather paper you often hang on your 'research and development wall'? I thought it was some incredible research before.
The result is a formula that does nothing."
There is no doubt that it was Doakes who spoke. Doakes was the only one who had access to Kael's laboratory and was so familiar with Kael.
Upon hearing Doakes' words, Vai frowned: "You are really as vicious as before."
Kael: "Vay, you have misunderstood Lord Red Sword. The words 'the useless formula' were actually told by me."
Vai: "Huh?"
Kael lowered his head, blushing and feeling a little disappointed as he told the story about this piece of paper.
To put it simply, it is the story of a silly boy’s fortune.
When Kael was an ordinary person, he liked to explore history and visited many places where there were rumored to be ruins. Kael was very lucky. Among the many false ruins, he found a real ruins, and this
The ruins still belong to extraordinary beings.
Generally speaking, the relics of extraordinary beings are definitely dangerous. But Kael is a true example of "the foolish boy will be protected by God".
This extraordinary relic once belonged to a quiet room where a white wizard retreated and settled.
Not only did Kael not encounter much danger, he also received some wizard legacy, and he was very lucky and became a gifted person without the guidance of a guide.
Later, while pursuing the path of transcendence, Kael met his current mentor Aesos and officially embarked on the path of a wizard.
The leather paper in Kael's hand was found by Kael in the white wizard's quiet room.
After Aesop saw it, he told Kael that it was a variation of Bazel's Biphasic Formula. Then Aesop explained what variation was and the "new world" that variation might open up.
It was Aesos's words that ignited Kael's blood.
He determined that the variations on this piece of paper could be continued to be deduced and eventually become a new formula!
A new formula named after Takael!
Aesos didn't know where Kael got the confidence from, and felt that this would definitely form a "new world". Perhaps he felt that this was his first adventure, and he had his own beautifying filter?
Although Aesos felt that Kael would definitely not be able to research anything, he did not stop him, but instead gave him a lot of help.
Because the process of research is actually the process of broadening your knowledge.
Perhaps this transformation cannot grow into the "new world" that Kael expected, but it can become a stepping stone for Kael to become an excellent researcher.
This is indeed the case. In the process of constantly studying this transformation, Kael became a student that even Aesop was proud of.
There was only one thing that gave Aesop a headache. It was the transformation of Kael on the paper, as if his obsession had become a demon.
No matter where Kael goes or what he does, he will carry this piece of paper with him and will take it out to study whenever he has free time. Aesops also secretly expressed that the changes on this piece of paper may not lead to new formulas, so he discouraged
Kael gives up.
On the surface, Kael listened to Aesop, but as long as Aesop was away, he was still studying in secret.
Even when Kal-El went to explore the ruins, he would take a moment to think about it.
Later, after Kael settled in the Sandworm Market, he had his own laboratory and took time to study it every day. Because of this, even Dox saw this piece of paper countless times.
Coca-El's research has never yielded any results.
Is Kael stupid and ignorant? Being able to become an academic with a wandering wizard background means that he is definitely not stupid.
He himself had actually noticed very early on that the transformation on this piece of paper might be wrong, but he couldn't help but think about it.
Aesop thinks that Kael is obsessed with evil.
Kael felt that he had developed his obsession into a daily habit.
Kael also knows that this piece of leather paper has been used as a "stepping stone" and should be discarded. However, it is still difficult to throw away the habit of decades, and this habit has also helped Kael truly step into the future.
He joined the ranks of researchers...if he was asked to give up, he would not give up.
What's more, the significance of this piece of paper itself is also very important. It is a witness to Kael's transformation from mortal to extraordinary.
The dual meaning of blessing, Kael wanted to give it up, but he was always undecided.
But this time, perhaps it was seeing Angel abandoning two coins that were very important to him without changing his expression that touched Kael's heartstrings.
Although Kael was not like Vai, who suddenly began to become Angel's fanboy. But it has to be said that Angel is definitely a super god-like existence to the younger generation of apprentices.
At such a young age, his strength and skills have reached a level beyond their reach. Kael even knows something that others don't know - Angel's attainments in space science are quite high.
For such a being, even if Kael didn't say it, he admired Angel in his heart.
Angel's every move was naturally watched by Kael.
Angel could give up the meaningful gold coins so decisively. Kael asked himself, why couldn't he?
As Angel said: Farewell is also a kind of growth in itself.
For growth.
Kael decided to take a step forward this time.
…
Everyone who listened to Kael's story was also quite emotional.
Unexpectedly, the transformation spell on a piece of leather paper could also become Kael's obsession.
"But, does obsession really rest on this piece of paper?" Vai murmured in a low voice: "Shouldn't obsession be Kael's inner demon? Does it have anything to do with this piece of paper?"
Kael did not answer, but Angel replied to Vai on his behalf: "Let Sicia judge whether it is a treasure or not."
After a pause, Angel turned to Kael and said: "Whether or not this piece of paper can become the treasure in Sissia's mouth, it actually has nothing to do with whether you can give up your obsession. The most important thing is to
It depends on your own thoughts."
Kael nodded: "Thank you, sir, for reminding me. I understand. I have always known clearly that it is the beginning of everything. If I want to end the current fixed habit and start a new life, I must at least start by abandoning it. It's just that I didn't know it before.
She, now I have... figured it out."
Angel: "It seems I'm talking too much."
Kael definitely knows himself better than outsiders. Whether it's Vai or Angel, it's all in vain.
Kael shook his hand: "No, I can figure it out. It's also because of adults."
Kael lowered his head and said in an inaudible voice: "After all, we have to say goodbye."
After finishing speaking, Kael bowed respectfully to Angel, and then in silence, step by step, slowly walked towards the Box of Sithia.
Within a few seconds, Kael came back.
It was very slow when I left, but when I came back, it was like a meteor.
At this time, the piece of paper was no longer there, and a red symbol similar to Vai's was floating in Kael's palm. This meant that the piece of paper, which was worthless in their eyes, was indeed worthless in Sisia's eyes.
treasure.
It is worth mentioning that there was no reluctance in Kael's eyes as everyone imagined, but a trace of thought and...relief.
This kind of relaxation and relief cannot be faked. Thinking about it this way, Kael really knows himself very well. He knows that the obsession is not in his heart, but is tied to the piece of paper. With the abandonment of the piece of paper, those obsessions
Thoughts or inner demons will slowly dissipate with the passage of time.
It can be said that Kael is truly freed from his past obsessions this time.
"Did Xicia say anything to you after receiving the paper?" Vai asked curiously.
Kael stretched out his index finger and rubbed the bridge of his nose, and said with some embarrassment: "I heard a 'silly' sound, and then it was gone."
Vai: "So, were you scolded by a box?"
Kael smiled awkwardly.
Doakes: "Don't forget Vai, you were kicked out directly. How can you laugh at others?"
Vai: "The first time I was kicked was to help everyone with the experiment, and it just happened that time. Besides, you are not qualified to tell me what treasures you can bring out based on your wealth?"
When Doakes' treasure was mentioned, Angel also looked over.
Doakes was the only person present except the Black Earl who did not take out the "treasure". The Black Earl was excusable because his purpose was not to pass the test, but to communicate with Sicia; but if Doakes did not take out the treasure
In exchange for tickets, the only option is to hide in Angel's exile space.
Under the gaze of everyone, Doakes snorted: "Of course I have treasures, look, isn't this it?"
After Doakes finished speaking, he took out a faintly shining cane from his pocket.
Angel frowned slightly when he saw the cane for the first time: "The Holy Light Cane of Ahilie Academy?"
The biggest difference between an alchemist apprentice and an alchemist is that most apprentices can only follow the rules, while formal alchemists can create themselves.
The so-called following the rules is to pick up the wisdom of the predecessors and refine it through the already perfect alchemy blueprints designed by the predecessors.
From imitation to creation. This is a process that most alchemists will go through.
Ahilie Comprehensive Academy actually has many alchemy drawings open to apprentices who are new to alchemy for imitation.
Judging from the design format, the cane in Doakes' hand is one of the several basic staff drawings of Ashelie Academy.
Its name is "Holy Light Cane", and its designer is the famous "Holy Light Walker" Gandalf, who is also a pillar member of the current research and development institute.
Doakes nodded: "Yes, it's the Holy Light Cane. Isn't this a treasure?"
The first sentence of Doakes was in response to Angel's question, and the second sentence was addressed to Vai.
Vai's expression was quite strange: "According to Xisiya's standards, it should be considered a treasure, but... do you really want to give this away?"
Doakes: "Of course!"
Vai: "Aren't you afraid..."
Doakes quickly interrupted: "What are you afraid of? If you get it, it's mine. This is the rule of a free wizard!"
After speaking, Doakes turned around, took the cane and walked towards the Box of Sithia.
