After telling Toby not to leave the Xeno Laboratory, Angel began this refining.
However, there is one more thing Angel needs to do before refining: practice dual-line operation. General dual-line operation means doing two things at once, and any wizard who can meditate can do it.
However, if you want to apply double-line operations to extremely complex alchemy, you can't just draw a circle with one hand and a square with the other.
For example, the dual-line operation that Angel needs to do will be much more difficult. While sculpting the magic energy array and enchanting it, he is also refining the space props. Both sides need to be focused, especially the magic energy array enchantment. Not only the magic energy must be output stably.
, and you can’t be distracted.
However, the above is limited to other enchantment alchemists.
For Angel, when he enchants the magic energy array, he has the help of holographic projection, and he only needs to follow the gourd. As for the stable output of magic power, it is not difficult to have the universal axis in the thinking space.
For him, what he really needs to pay attention to is the training of space props.
In this dual-line operation, there is another huge difficulty, which is also the most important reason restricting the scarcity of the production of compound-effect alchemy props: dual-line engraving of magic patterns at the same time.
This is the last step of his refining plan. Not only does he have to carve out the magic energy array to enchant it, but he also has to carve out the contract magic pattern at the same time. This step is more difficult and requires at least the mental arithmetic and control abilities of a formal wizard to complete it.
However, there are very few people who learn enchantment alchemy and reach the official wizard level.
This is the main reason why most of the compound-effect alchemy props sold on the market are produced by "blending" rather than "enchanting".
Of course, Angel ignored this step by relying on the holographic tablet. Although, even if the production was successful, it would still be suspected of being artificial, but for alchemy, there is no absolute. The path of the predecessors is not necessarily the most convenient.
method.
Moreover, enchantment alchemy is a process where practice makes perfect. Just like, Angel had to rely on holographic projection to depict such as sharp magic patterns, frost magic patterns, armor-piercing magic patterns, and golden magic patterns... But
Later, I drew more and more, and now I can completely draw this simple magic pattern without the holographic projection.
Although it was a trick, it eventually reached the level of other enchanted alchemists. As long as the end result is the same, why should you care which path you take?
It took two days to become familiar with the double-line operation, and to ensure that every step was flawless and the timing could be perfectly coordinated. Only then did Angel begin the formal refining.
This refining took another two days.
Two days later, Angel excitedly entered the final stage of fusion, with his eyes already starting to darken.
The "boundless silence" here has reached the final stage, and the "contract magic pattern" on the other side has also reached the final step. When Angel controlled two pairs of magic hands and held two carving pens, he slowly followed a line left and right.
When they are brought together, a wonderful charm emerges from the fusion point.
The condensation method begins!
Angor's eyes burst with burning emotions, and when he was about to cheer, his body staggered and almost fell down. Fortunately, the refining had already entered the condensation stage, so shaking it would have no effect.
He was so exhausted that he only rested for less than five hours for four consecutive days.
Angel took off his coat one by one until he was completely naked. The clothes that were thrown carelessly on the ground exuded a strong smell of sweat. His naked back was still covered due to heavy sweating.
In the end, there were patches of white salt scab. Angel controlled his magic hand, took a soaked towel, and wiped it a little.
The moist feeling penetrated from the skin, and Angel's tense back finally relaxed.
Although he was doing these actions, his eyes were always on the "circle" of condensation. The white light kept flashing when the condensation reached the final step.
Angel thought: "It's done!"
A fierce light shone out from the "circle", and Angel's tired and dark eyes were filled with tears because of this violent flash.
When the light faded away, Angel wiped away his tears and opened his eyes, and found that...he had actually arrived in a dark and lonely place.
Looking at the unfamiliar environment around him, the crescent moon hung in the sky, and the mountains and rivers in the distance were all dark and gloomy. Angel understood that the strange sign had finally come.
…
The appearance of an alchemical omen is not just a simple announcement of the birth of an alchemical tool, it is actually more of a test for the alchemist himself.
Test whether the alchemist can withstand this heaven-defying thing.
At first, after Angel learned about the "black cloud" omen, he went to look up all the information about the alchemical omen that night.
Any alchemy item above the intermediate level will produce alchemical signs, which are not only manifested in the outside world, but also manifested in the alchemist himself.
Strange phenomena in the outside world, such as black clouds.
The vision of the alchemist himself, such as the place of death where Angel is now.
As long as the alchemist can overcome the strange phenomenon, the alchemy props can be considered a real success. On the contrary, the effect of the alchemy props may be discounted or even lower in grade.
Angel also thought about why he didn't experience any strange signs when he was refining the revolver that marked the prelude to his demise. This was probably due to his physical condition. He might have already experienced strange signs, but he didn't know it at the time.
.
When the refining was successful, the outside world was suppressed by dark clouds, and he kept hearing the howls of the undead in his ears. Angel estimated that these howls were so-called visions. Because when the howls of the undead first appeared, he
It felt a little inexplicably harsh, but as the butterfly bone wound itched, the originally harsh sound had no effect.
Just like when he fought with Saka in the Sky Tower, any soul howl from Sylvia had no effect on him.
Any negative effects on the soul have no effect on him.
At that time, he could rely on his special physique to survive an alchemical omen without realizing it. But now, he must go through it personally and rely on his own strength to survive this unpredictable omen.
Angel carefully looked at this land of silence. There was black soil under his feet, an underground river nearby, a dark forest, and shadowy mountains in the distance. The sky was also dark, except for a crescent moon.
Hanging, there are no stars, not even clouds and mists.
Angel looked at himself, his upper body was bare, and he was only wearing a pair of thin pants underneath.
The night wind blew, chilling me to the depths of my bones.
Angel was about to cast a trick to maintain his body temperature, but he found that the magic power could not be mobilized. The rolling magic power in the magic source all subsided at this moment, just like the external environment, dead and indifferent.
Angel walked to the river. The underground river seemed to be flowing, but no sound could be heard. The world was strangely quiet and terrifyingly quiet.
Shivering, Angel walked forward along a road.
This is the only road. The back of the road leads to the forest, and ahead is unknown darkness. Angel chose to walk into the darkness. There are too many dangers in the forest at night. No one knows what is in the shadow behind the next tree.
It's not a hidden murderous intention.
Following his intuition, Angel chose a path that at least looked smooth ahead.
I don't know how long he walked, maybe an hour, maybe a day. Angel was very tired from walking, but he didn't stop. Inexplicably, he felt that as long as he stopped, something bad might happen.
This is a kind of intuition. Whenever this intuition appears, Angel firmly believes in it. When Pat Manor tested his talent and entered the nightmare world, he left smoothly because of his intuition. When he was parasitized by the parasitic mother,
Because of his intuition, he saved himself.
When the road came to an end, he found a small town.
This is a lively town. When you walk in, you will find people laughing, singing and dancing. There are snack sellers, neon paper lights, parties, and hilarious children on the streets.
After Angel walked in, he found that all the previous sense of silence had disappeared. Even the crescent moon hanging in the sky seemed a little gentler at this time, and the moonlight shining down was no longer sad, but had a faint
of tenderness.
This is a lively town. Everyone is singing and dancing. Angel seems to be infected with this emotion. Someone is dancing and walking towards him, with eyes that seem to invite him to dance. Angel
Just as Er was about to take a step forward, the vigilance in his heart made him retreat again. When the person came to him, Angel hid in the corner. The other person appeared, but he didn't pay attention, and continued to find the next person to dance with.
Angel walked forward, and more people came over. It could be seen from their eyes that some wanted to sing with him, some wanted to invite him to join the bonfire dinner, and some wanted to toast and drink with him. Angel went there.
As long as he stayed away, these people would not look at him.
It's really strange. Although you are very enthusiastic and can see him, you don't insist on inviting him.
As he walked, Angel was thinking about what kind of place this place was, was it an illusion? But as an outstanding disciple of the illusion department, he did not feel the nature of any illusion.
All perceptions, all touches, and all feedback information are telling that this place seems to be real. Whether it is the lonely road, the cold night wind, and the coldness of the river; or this lively little street
The town, joyful songs, intoxicating aroma of wine, and enthusiastic crowds all convey this message.
But if a real world appears just because of a vision test, wouldn't it be too extravagant?
Angel felt that maybe this was something similar to the "inner demon" in the Earth Fairy novels. It seemed like a fantasy, but it only captivated your will; it seemed like reality, but it only took away your senses.
Just like a virtual reality game, a map is built according to the characteristics of the items you refine to let you pass the level. If you pass, you will be rewarded. If you fail, you will be punished.
So the question is, what are the characteristics of the space props he refined?
