Chapter 1100

Alchemy is a huge and complex subject. It is dependent on magic, but independent of each other.

For example.

If magic is the game itself, then alchemy is a large DLC that needs to be purchased at an additional cost.

It only refers to alchemy in magic, which is actually the alchemy magic of the magic school.

An Yizhi's disorderly cultivation, self-propelled blasting spiders, unstable compounds, as well as the simple alchemy, seven ring alchemy array, chaotic alchemy and even the super powerful 12 chain alchemy explosions on the robe and staff are also under the classification of alchemy factions.

However, these spells are mainly things that provide convenience for mages to participate in combat. They can be used to synthesize and produce some emergency products temporarily, but they can not produce real magic items. They are only one of the spell categories.

On the other side of alchemy, there is a purely academic discipline, which is almost unrelated to combat, that is, alchemy in the real sense in everyone's mind.

Under this discipline, alchemy will be divided into more than ten branches, such as potions, weapons and armor, alchemy machinery and strange object manufacturing. There are several different schools under each branch, which is only the tip of the iceberg in the huge system, enough to see the complexity of alchemy.

Mages usually use some alchemy methods for emergencies, and alchemists also use some spells to protect themselves, but if they want both hands, it's easy to take care of one and lose the other.

Don't think that alchemists are powerful mages based on the model of Nikolai. In fact, many alchemists are not good at fighting, and their grades are generally about level 15 that can graduate from the school of magic. They are really weak chickens. Nikolai, who is proficient in alchemy combat but strong enough to face the gods, is only a special case in the special case, The whole multiverse can't find a few

Although the combat effectiveness is not high, the time and cost of training a qualified alchemist are not much less than that of a mage, or even worse, depending on what discipline he wants to learn.

If you learn magic medicine, the picture is similar to that of chemists in reality. You can extract useful ingredients from various materials and mix them to achieve the desired effect. It can even be made without the participation of any magic, but the final product has various magical effects that are difficult to achieve by magic.

This is the potion.

However, because there is no need for magic, the alchemist learning magic medicine is the weakest among his peers.

Compared with potions, alchemists who specialize in making weapons and equipment are "fighters" in their peers. They must have no low level of enchanting faction magic skills. Only in this way can they attach magic effects to items. At the same time, you should also have a considerable understanding of the spells of other factions. Although you are not required to be able to use them, at least tons of spell data should be recorded in your mind. Only in this way can you enchant the items with the spell effect you want. Therefore, the alchemist of this discipline has the strongest combat power.

Making alchemy machinery requires some knowledge that seems irrelevant to magic, such as materials, structure, and even architecture.

The alchemists of this discipline also have the deepest impact on the lives of most mortals. Ships cruising on the ocean, flying ships between cities, magic statues in each mage tower, even the magic guide armor in the copy world of Endymion, as well as the floating cities and magic guide fortresses of ancient elves are all the products of this discipline.

The alchemists who make strange things, such as Lina in front of an Yizhi, are quite legendary.

Strange things are mainly those with magical ability, but they do not belong to weapons and magic potion machinery.

In the early days of mortal alchemy technology, it was regarded as "a miracle that can not be artificially copied.".

I wonder if anyone has ever wondered why there are the largest number of magic books in the brave world?

This is not the aesthetic of alchemists. In fact, the birth of most magic books exceeded the expectations of the producers.

Some magic books are just the carrier for the author to record spell research, at best, they are just a memorandum, while the author of some strange magic books is not even a mage or alchemist at all, just an ordinary person without any combat effectiveness, and the knowledge recorded is more than magic. There is no chance at all.

However, these strange things were born. As long as you input magic, they can produce unexpected effects. They are truly miracles born by chance.

At first, everyone didn't understand the principle. Until with the development of alchemy technology and a few words left by ancient elves, mortals finally unveiled the mystery of the manufacture of strange things. It comes down to one sentence.

Strong thoughts will turn into powerful power.

This sentence sounds very metaphysical, but there is also evidence to follow.

We often say that things made by craftsmen have life. The reason is similar.

This is just a metaphor. If there is life, it will become essence

Many strange things born after ancient Elves were only non magical things made by craftsmen at first, but strong thoughts injected power into them, so they became strange things with magical ability.

Of course, this method is very accidental and can not guarantee stable output at all.

Then alchemists further analyzed and studied the technology of making strange things. Up to now, there are roughly two methods to make strange things.

It is a method similar to manufacturing weapons and equipment. The magic array is carved to add the spells of various factions. There are many strange things made in this way, such as the bigby body protection ball on an Yizhi.

The advantage is that the consumption is low, and you can freely add your desired spell effects.

But the disadvantages are also obvious.

Because the enchantment of the carving array requires a certain "surface area", it requires very high craftsmanship for alchemists, and it is impossible to add too many or too strong magic effects. As a result, the level of strange objects made by this technique usually does not exceed the excellent level, and high magic items of perfect level are very rare.

The other method is more difficult to explain. What we insist on is the "miracle" of artificial collection that makes strange things come into being.

In the process, there is almost no need for any magic and Dharma array. What is more needed is the creator's ideas and how much effort he will put into making this item.

Lina is an alchemist who is good at making strange things, and the method she uses is also the latter one just mentioned.

An Yizhi and Haila saw that Lina first took several bottles of magic drugs with different colors from the potion rack on one side, introduced them into the beaker according to a certain proportion, stirred and mixed them with a glass rod, and finally made a potion with blue and purple magic light.

Put the liquid medicine into the watering can and spray it evenly on the surface of the battery bead.

The potion seemed to volatilize very easily. It was still carrying water droplets one second before it disappeared the next. Lina had to spray it four or five times until she used up the whole bottle of potion.

Ann pointed out that he was curious and ignorant. After all, he was a layman, but Haila was an expert. You can ask her.

"Do you understand?"

"The devil knows what she did with the potion to store the electric beads. Every alchemist has his own secret skills, which outsiders generally can't understand."

While they were talking, Lina went to another long table and pushed the scattered documents to the ground. Then she laboriously picked up the leather of the thunder giant eel and unfolded it on the table, frowning and thinking about something.

The thinking time was not too long. Lina made a mark on the leather with an oily pen, then picked up a big scissors and cut a rectangular leather of more than two meters.

After careful consideration of the position of her scissors, she just retained a complex and complete "thunder pattern".

After that, she flattened the roughly cut leather, carefully trimmed it, and tied the four corners of the rectangular leather with metal wires. I don't know what's the use.

When Lina was busy with leather, the battery beads she put aside also changed.

At the beginning, it was not very obvious. An Yizhi saw that the color of the edge of the light yellow battery beads seemed to be lighter, but with the passage of time, the reaction speed was also increasing. It was obvious that the large battery beads of basketball were fading, or it was more accurate to describe them with concentration.

Its pale yellow shell changes rapidly towards transparency, just as all colors gather towards the center to form something wrapped by transparent glass on the outside but bright lemon yellow on the inside.

It looks like an egg with a transparent shell, and the egg white wraps the yolk in the middle.

"Oh, I see. She is improving the quality of the storage beads. Originally, the quality of the storage beads was not good enough, so she concentrated the storage beads with liquid medicine to improve the quality of the storage beads at the cost of reducing the volume."

Hella explained:

"There is not only one way to achieve a certain alchemy effect. If master Nikolai was replaced, he would depict the energy absorption array on the surface of the battery bead, bombard it with appropriate Lightning spells, and use external forces to improve the overall quality."

"Which method is better?"

"This mainly depends on the demand. It needs to store electric beads to maintain their original size. Master Nikula's method is the best. If you don't need such a big head, this girl's method not only saves time and effort, but also has better quality under the same quality."

Haila was pointing these to Ann, while Lina on the other side finished trimming the leather shape. She touched a sweat and left funny black marks on her white face.

An Yizhi was about to open her mouth to ask, but Lina turned around and turned out several half meter long metal strips and a large roll of metal wires from one side of the cabinet.

The metals refracted a purple glow, like some kind of alloy.

This is not a very precious metal. Its ductility and hardness are not as good as excellent steel, but it has super corrosion resistance. It is also the most commonly used metal of the Hai people.

She cut off several metal strips with pliers. Lina picked up one of them and stared at it with her eyes.

Then the metal strip was as quickly elongated and softened as if manipulated by an invisible hand, and changed into the required shape according to Lina's heart.

"It's spiritual alchemy. It's really worthy of being an elf farsighted of the sea elves."

Haila couldn't help exclaiming.

Ann is a little bit like to make complaints about what kind of ghosts are mental alchemy. Does it have anything to do with mental Gundam?
