At first glance, Zheng Qing seemed to be tactfully reminding Dr. Duzem that his Philosopher's Stone production process had been leaked.
But as smart as Duzem, he could see the boy's unfinished intentions at a glance.
Already suspected by these children, he looked at the two young wizards in front of him gently, thinking mockingly in his heart, put his skinny fingers on the table next to him, and tapped twice lightly.
Then, his first words shocked Zheng Qing.
"The craftsmanship of the Philosopher's Stone has never been a secret."
Duzem stopped tapping his fingers on the table, raised his head, rubbed his forehead, and said in a low voice: "How to extract a sufficiently pure 'essence of time' is the key. The traditional refining method of the Philosopher's Stone requires legendary
The wizard took action, collecting the 'mist' that permeated the river of time, and then used ground sand to condense insect egg powder... This process involves the realms of death and time, so it requires extremely high levels of mana and skill from the alchemist.
And my improved craft relies on the brightest and most dazzling essence in life. They naturally communicate with countless hidden dimensions and connect the long river of time. The energy they erupt in despair and madness can almost crush the past.
, the natural barrier between the present and the future. This extremely high-quality raw material greatly reduces the requirements for the level of refiners..."
Zheng Qing and Jiang Yu's eyes were bright, and they listened intently as the alchemist master in front of them clearly explained to them the knowledge that was taboo in the classroom, and even in the entire alliance. They felt that their trip tonight was worthwhile.
Dr. Duzem looked at this familiar expression, chuckled twice, and slid his fingers from the corners of his forehead between the wrinkles on his cheeks. He changed the topic and asked, "You should have heard that when I was admitted to school,
The 'imprisonment' was due to an experimental accident. Do you know what the accident was?"
Zheng Qing shook his head in confusion.
There would be no investigative reports on this kind of thing on the shelves of the school library.
But when Jiang Yu heard this, he frowned slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but hesitated for a moment and finally did not speak, but the light in his eyes dimmed quietly.
"In order to test my plan, I violated the provisions of the Wizarding Code and used an almost evil alchemy array to drain the vitality of all living creatures in a secret world and conduct illegal life refining. But I underestimated the danger of black magic.
The powerful resentment almost destroyed my soul... My current aging appearance is one of the side effects of the accident."
Dr. Duzem turned his head and looked out the window, looking into the distance without focus. His tone was calm, as if he was telling someone else's story: "...the school's treatment of me is considered very lenient. This is probably due to
Wizards do not regard the lives in the secret realm as truly equal members. Perhaps it is because of this that I can now return to the sun."
Having said this, he turned his gaze away from the window, fell on Zheng Qing, and smiled slightly: "After knowing the essence of my refining the Philosopher's Stone, do you still want to buy the production process of the 'Du Family Philosopher's Stone'?
?”
Zheng Qing's face turned a little pale.
Subconsciously avoiding Dr. Duzem's sharp eyes.
"So, what you are saying is that the alchemy techniques sold in wandering bars have serious side effects?" Zheng Qing vaguely avoided the doctor's question.
Dr. Duzem smiled disapprovingly and also gave an ambiguous answer: "Maybe."
Zheng Qing was surprised to find that he actually understood the meaning of these three words - maybe the alchemy techniques spread outside are indeed the alchemy techniques improved by Dr. Duzem, or maybe not, he doesn't care. If there are alchemists
If you really have the courage to use your future, your future, and even your life to try that kind of alchemical craft, what's wrong with it?
"Korma!" Another figure suddenly appeared in Zheng Qing's mind, and he shouted it out in a low voice subconsciously. As soon as the words came out, he immediately realized that something was wrong and quickly changed his words: "I mean Senior Sister Kolma... from the North District
Great Sage Korma, she seems to be trying to promote some magic stones similar to the Philosopher's Stone among the wizards of the North District?"
Dr. Duzem raised his eyebrows.
"Deputy Dean Colma?"
He nodded slightly and used another title: "Yes, my laboratory has cooperated with Bei District to some extent, and she did get the improved Philosopher's Stone from me.
craftsmanship to replace the shortcomings of their current use of frogs to cast magic... Of course, her bottom line is slightly higher than mine. When refining, she only referred to part of my improved craftsmanship, condensing frogs, toads and even ants.
The magic stones that contain the vitality of mosquitoes and other insects will break into pieces after the vitality in the stones is exhausted... That's why the 'Level Philosopher's Stone' she refined will have a lifespan, and will lose its effect after being used for a period of time.
.”
Zheng Qing listened silently to these secret messages.
My mind was a little confused, and I even forgot what my original question was.
Jiang Yu quietly pulled his sleeves and silently pointed to the clock on the wall, reminding him that he had classes in the evening and that time was already very tight.
Zheng Qing finally came to his senses and resigned to the doctor in a daze.
Dr. Duzem did not feel that he was rude, and seemed to think that the conversation tonight was very pleasant, so he sent him out the door. When he came to the yard, the night breeze blew, and Zheng Qing's thoughts suddenly became much clearer - that is to say,
The crows do not lack ways to obtain Dr. Duzem's refining technology, so the possibility of the doctor colluding with them is possible, but it has become extremely low.
At this moment, the voice of the laboratory owner came to my ears again.
"If you meet those brokers selling alchemy crafts next time in Wandering Bar, I hope you can buy what they have in their hands." Dr. Duzem walked beside the two young wizards, his voice was low and slow.
Said: "I'm actually also very curious about how many people know my refining process and how much they know... Of course, I can reimburse the related expenses."
Zheng Qing smiled awkwardly.
In fact, the news that his friend heard at the Wandering Bar was entirely made up by him on the spur of the moment. But the doctor's attitude made him a little more curious.
"Do you know that your alchemy skills are spread privately?" He couldn't help but ask.
"of course I know."
Dr. Duzem walked a few steps quickly, opened the door for the guests, and then looked back at the two of them: "The wizard I work with is not just Vice Dean Kolma. The spread of knowledge is very important.
It’s a normal thing. But it’s like the forbidden curse. There are so many wizards in the world who know the principles of the forbidden curse, how many of them can really grasp the true meaning of it?”
