Midora was refining a potion in front of the alchemy workbench. He glanced at Angel from the corner of his eye and made a silent gesture to him, gesturing for him to stand aside.
Angel stood over calmly.
Since Midora didn't kick him out, she didn't mind him watching the alchemy. Therefore, Angel confidently and boldly set his sights on Midora's alchemy techniques.
Among the major schools of pharmacy, Midora is a leader of the reformist school. The core of the reformist school lies in the word "reform". They advocate all emerging reforms, abandon the inherent conceptual model, and delete steps that have no practical significance.
, remove the dross and keep the essence.
Angel actually doesn't know much about pharmacies, but when watching Midora refining pharmaceuticals, transparent test tubes come and go, filtering, purifying, extracting, refining... it's like watching the rigorous scenes in the Earth documentary.
A scientific worker. But the flames that appeared from time to time in Midora's hands, as well as the flow of various magic powers, clearly told him that this was the wizarding world, not the earth.
Time passed little by little, and when the hour hand of the wall clock turned 45 degrees and reached noon, Midora put down what she was doing.
A pink potion with blood-colored light spots was put into an exquisite silver-plated potion bottle by Midora.
Midora shook the bottle and listened to the sound of the bubbles bursting and the liquid hitting the wall. She took out a quill pen, recorded several sets of data, and then placed a seal on the bottle cap. A row of beautiful flowers
Written in Chinese characters: Improved version of Pink Potion.
Pink potion, a very famous low-level potion. Although the name sounds a bit charming, in fact, when you use this potion, it is not charming at all. This is an auxiliary potion used when refining your blood. Every time you use it
At that time, there must be blood flowing all over the ground.
However, this was the first time Angel had seen the improved version of the pink potion. He didn’t know which part Midora had improved.
"I have added some hematopoietic materials to the improved version of the pink potion. It can maintain the basic activity of the physical body while refining the blood." Midora saw that Angel had been paying attention to the potion bottle in his hand, how could he not see that he was
I was curious, since it wasn't a secret anyway, so I answered casually.
Maintain basic physical activity?
Angel's eyes lit up. He was about to ask about some potions that could maintain the vitality of the body, but unexpectedly he met one. Although the pink potion itself was not used to nourish the body, it still opened up a topic.
"Master Midora, I just want to ask for advice on how to nourish the body." Angel asked curiously.
Midora glanced at him: "It depends on the purpose of your request. For example, refining blood and injecting blood both require nourishing the body, but their methods of nourishing the body are different."
"The soul is separated from the body." Angel said: "After the soul ribbon operation, how to maintain the activity of the body can make the soul state last longer."
"This is what you are referring to. I thought you were planning to inject blood..." Midora muttered and looked at Angel: "Actually, you use some magic plants to mix the nutrient solution, and then let your body soak in it.
It can remain active for a long time. It only requires basic knowledge of pharmacy and does not even require in-depth study."
"But that's not what I mean." Angel hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth about his situation. However, he blurred the matter of gravity and said: "I have a need to consume my soul.
The secret technique of power can only be used after the soul leaves the body. But once my soul leaves the body, my soul cannot stay outside for too long due to the shackles of my body."
"How to maintain the physical body in an emergency?" Midora thought for a moment, "Actually, many medicines can achieve the effect you mentioned, which is to temporarily increase the activity of the physical body. The long ones can last for one hour, and the short ones can also increase the activity by ten minutes.
.”
"But when it comes to the best value for money and the easiest to get... probably the only one left is the Gypsy style Selyan Witch Soup."
Angel is actually no stranger to witch soup. Promi Alchemy Store sells witch soup. This is a special decoction made by the Gypsy school, between the pharmacy and gastronomy schools. It has different materials and different effects.
, each family’s inheritance is different, but in the end, the same cooking method is used to come up with a general name: witch soup.
The classification of witch soup is named after the person who made it.
For example, Kalanling Witch Soup, Selyan Witch Soup, Shanna Witch Soup...the so-called Kalanling, Selyan, Shanna, etc., these are all refined names.
Because Witch Soup is very restrictive, its application range is not wide, and it is often impossible to prescribe the right medicine. But it has one of the most special features. Witch Soup has almost no side effects on the human body, which is also something that other schools cannot compare with.
.
"Selyang Witch Soup is basically for bloodline wizards. It allows them to maintain physical activity after using a large amount of physical power." Midora paused: "In the situation you mentioned, it should be used
There is no problem.”
After Midora finished speaking, she did not forget to add: "Selyang Witch Soup is a very popular potion and is sold in the main city."
——Selyan Witch Soup. Angel memorized this name in his heart.
After talking about nourishing the body, Midora said:
"You came to me not only to talk about cultivating the body, but also to visit the library, or...something else?" His eyes fell on Angel's hand, where there was a stack of parchment.
Although he couldn't see the specific content on the brown paper, he vaguely caught a glimpse of the corner and raised his eyebrows.
Angel handed over the parchment in his hand.
"I came here mainly to ask the master for advice. Is there anything missing or wrong with the robotic arm I designed?" Angel said respectfully.
"Mechanical arm?" Midora took the paper. Just by hearing the name, he probably guessed what Angel wanted to refine.
When Midora saw the first draft of the design, her eyes lit up.
The most proud thing about Sky Mechanical City is mechanical alchemy. Although Midora specializes in pharmacy, he is actually no stranger to mechanical alchemy. Moreover, he is also the honorary vice president of the R&D Institute and spends too much time in contact with machinery every day.
Alchemy, so his vision of mechanical alchemy is definitely not inferior to alchemy potions.
Angel's first draft, which was placed on the first page, was actually just an exploded diagram.
There is an exploded view of the robotic arm, including the wheel axle, the functions of each part, and the general style.
However, in order to make the picture complete, Angel drew the whole thing, not just the robotic arm, he also drew the head, body and feet. However, only the robotic arm has a complete cross-sectional exploded view, the rest is just a concept
picture.
The source of this concept is naturally the "mecha" shown to Nausicaa.
The mecha, which is full of earth's technological style, is completely different from the mainstream aesthetics of the wizarding world, but the shock it brings is the same. When Sarum saw the portrait of the mecha for the first time, he repeatedly shouted "cool"
.
At that time, Angel only drew a half-length drawing of the mecha. This time, he drew a full-length drawing of the mecha. The metallic texture and different, sci-fi appearance were very eye-catching.
Midora pointed to the mecha on the paper and asked, "Have you seen mechanical weapons?"
Angel was confused: "What are mechanical weapons?"
After Midora asked this question, he shook his head in denial: "This style is different from the one designed by the R&D Institute, but the concept is very similar."
After talking to himself, Midora looked at Angel more and more kindly: "Not only are you talented in alchemy, but you also have good vision and creativity. This thing should be wearable, right?"
Angel thought about the mechas on Earth. Most of them are wearable, but there are also some that rely on remote control or are operated by intelligence: "Sort of."
"As expected." Midora showed an expression just as I expected: "You know the R&D Institute, right?"
Angel nodded. The R&D Institute is the core place of the entire Sky Machinery City. All cutting-edge mechanical alchemy products are researched from the R&D Institute. Its person in charge is one of the two city owners of Sky Machinery City.
, responsible for the negative area - the 'Mediocre' Muse.
"About thirty years ago, Muse began to develop mechanical weapons in the R&D Institute. This is also a wearable, full-coverage mechanical armor. Several sets have been completed so far, but he has always been dissatisfied with the power, so he has not released it to the public.
There are no more than ten people who know about this matter." At this point, Midora sighed slightly: "I didn't expect that you and Muse's ideas coincided with each other."
When Midora said this, she was completely convinced that Angel would definitely become a master alchemist in the future. Such outstanding vision and terrifying talent all proved that "Tomorrow's Master" was not an illusion.
After Midora admired it, she suppressed the urge to go to the R&D institute to share it with Muse immediately, and began to look at the mechanical arm designed by Angel.
After reading the anatomy diagram of the robotic arm, Midora first asked him about his intention to refine the robotic arm, and then began to analyze the practicality of each function bit by bit.
This discussion lasted most of the day.
When the laboratory door was pushed open, it was already dark outside.
The scene that Jelia saw when she walked in was that of Midora and Angel having their heads together, discussing something attentively. From time to time, they would also use illusions to cooperate and complete some ideas.
Yeliya originally thought that it would be Midora's one-sided teaching, but she didn't expect that there were interactions with each other, and sometimes Angel would refuse to give in, making Midora blush and even curse when he was extremely angry.
Scenes like this usually occur when Midora is communicating with other alchemy masters, but now he is facing a wizard apprentice. Jelia thinks such a scene is quite interesting, and she doesn't
Feeling inconsistent.
Yeliya watched for about half an hour, seeing that the item they were discussing was coming to an end. Before they started the next stage of discussion, she took advantage of the opportunity and said: "Okay, let's go up and eat first. After eating,
Let’s discuss it later. Tuya is almost starving while waiting outside. He is growing, so we can’t let him starve.”
As soon as Angel heard what Yelia said, he felt as if he was just here to "make a living" and wanted to say goodbye and leave.
But Midora stopped him. It is rare to encounter a good point of view, and the holder of the point of view is also very good. Even if many alchemy basics are wrong, his vision and thinking are very broad, and he can draw parallels with others.
He has inspired a lot from Midora. It can be said that Angel is definitely an excellent communication partner, even if he is just an apprentice.
Midora had tasted the sweetness, how could she let Angel leave so easily, "Don't go back, just eat here. After the meal, there are several areas where I want to compete with you, especially the selection of ingredients. You
You have to listen to me."
Angel smiled bitterly: "Master, it's not that I don't listen to you, it's because of those materials..."
"Stop!" Yeliya walked between the two of them, "If we want to discuss it after dinner, Angel, come up with me first, otherwise this old guy will have to drag you along."
After that, Jelia grabbed Angel and dragged him upstairs.
Returning to the cozy cabin again, Jelia motioned for Angel to take a seat first, while she went to the kitchen utensils aside to do the final cooking.
Perhaps because he waited too long, Tuya fell asleep on the table, saliva flowing down his lips.
Dudu was sitting on his lap, also resting.
Outside the window is the moonlight and stars, and the tip of my nose can smell the aroma of vegetables and rice.
In this quiet moment, Angel felt inexplicably at peace inside.
