After seeing his master Ryan come in, Milo hurriedly saluted to Ryan. Ryan didn't pay much attention to these etiquettes. He just waved his hand casually and focused on Fulia. At this time, The Elf Queen Freya is sitting at a huge and thick table, thinking carefully about something. In the middle of this big table, there are 7 piles of fragments. There are 329 fragments in total. It is Ryan and Freya. The fragments of the "Scorching Angel Staff" were sorted out together,
There were 7 piles of fragments. The number of each pile was different. The maximum number was more than 80 pieces, while the minimum number was only three or five pieces. Ryan and Fulia spent a lot of effort to pick out the fragments with similar properties. Put it away, and then Freya, who inherited the memory of past elf queens, slowly identified it.
If all these materials are intact and have not been refined into artifacts, it would be easy to identify them. You can easily find their real names based on the records in the books and repair them. But now there are so many fragments. They were completely mixed together, and the smallest one was only half the nail of Fulia's little finger. This greatly increased the difficulty of identification, so Fulia could only use the stupidest method to classify each fragment first. Then number them and identify them piece by piece.
Ryan picked up a sheepskin magic scroll placed aside and looked at it for a while. He found that Fulia had found the true materials of about seventy fragments and recorded them one by one. With so many fragments, There are only three kinds of materials, namely mithril, fine gold and angel tears.
Fulia already knew it when Ryan came in. When Ryan picked up the scroll, Fulia said with a smile: "Hey, why are you here so early? There are so many magic patterns. You've finished it, didn't any accidents happen?"
"Ahem." Freya's last words made Ryan don't know what to say. He could only use coughing to express his dissatisfaction and embarrassment. Ryan really didn't know what Freya's purpose was, but Now he couldn't ask more questions in front of other people, and Fulia was still holding a small piece of fragment in her hand to identify carefully, and Ryan didn't want to disturb her work.
When Freya heard Ryan's cough, she raised her head and smiled sweetly at Ryan, and then said to Milo who was standing aside: "Miro, rose stone, fairy dust, glacier water, and oak seeds."
"Okay, Mistress." Milo agreed quickly. His thin figure wandered throughout the magic material warehouse. After a while, he found what Freya wanted and placed it on the table. A corner of a thick wooden table,
Fulia nodded with satisfaction and said to Ryan: "Milo is really a good helper. Although you don't have a lot of materials here, there are hundreds of thousands of them. If it weren't for him, he would have found it so quickly. It's really a bit troublesome. Well, speaking of Ryan, you don't seem to have time to collect so many materials. In addition to the illithid we killed last time, there are many materials here that can't be obtained by just spending money. Although it is better than It's still far behind our Demon Moon City, but it's still very rich among humans."
Ryan smiled shyly. Freya was right. It had only been a few years since Ryan became famous. How could he personally collect such a large amount of magic materials? Except for some of them, they were collected from there last time. Most of the things obtained from the illithid were brought by Ryan from his teacher Dranai. From Archmage Meren to Dranai, there was more than 200 years in between. There is such a wealth of information. It’s no surprise that the collection is natural;
After listening to Ryan's explanation, Fulia nodded slightly. She pointed to the three materials on the table that Milo had just found and said to Ryan: "Since you are here, please help me. Well, the oak seeds Soak it in glacial water, add a small amount of pixie dust, and then let me use this rose stone to extract a little bit of the energy from this fragment.”
Ryan nodded and quickly completed it according to Freya's instructions, but he didn't understand the purpose of doing so. Ryan vaguely remembered that glacier water is the purest water with no impurities at all, and the elf Dust is a powder that inhibits the growth of all things. It is said that some people take this precious material orally to maintain their appearance. But if you soak oak seeds in glacier water with fairy dust, don't you expect the seeds to germinate? ,
Freya carefully attached the rose stone to the fragment the size of a fingernail. Within a few seconds of putting the light red rose stone and the dark black fragment together, the light red rose stone began to slowly fade. , and soon the color of the entire rose stone turned out to be exactly the same as the dark black fragments.
Ryan knows that the biggest feature of the rose stone is that it can transform its own inner energy according to the object it is attached to, and the magician also uses this feature to extract the energy of some targets for experiments. Now the rose stone in Freya's hand We already have a negligible amount of energy on the dark black fragment. As long as we analyze the general situation of this energy, we can reversely deduce the material of the fragment.
Freya carefully put the extracted rose stone into the glacier water, and watched it quickly sink to the bottom of the water and stay with the oak seeds. Just as Ryan was about to speak, he was sensitively aware of a faint But for the first time, the vitality emanated from the container of glacial water. When he took a closer look, he found that the oak seed had miraculously begun to germinate. The cold glacial water in the container and the pixie dust that inhibited the growth of all things were completely absent. Effect,
Within a dozen breaths, the tiny seed actually broke through the surface of the glacier water, and a tiny bud spread out to its heart's content. Although this tiny oak sapling is still extremely weak, no one You will doubt the life force contained in its body. Unfortunately, by this time, the rose stone soaked in glacier water has returned to light red, and the energy extracted from the dark black fragments has been exhausted, and this small oak tree The seedlings remained in this stretching position,
"Just such a small amount of energy can actually allow oak seeds to break through the double constraints of glacier water and fairy dust." Ryan couldn't help but speak,
Fulia even said in a tone of surprise: "Obsidian, these are fragments of obsidian."
"Obsidian, what is that?" Ryan naturally knew very little about these rare materials. He had never heard of this name and naturally wanted to ask clearly.
There was still an expression of surprise on Fulia's face, but she was able to control her emotions. After seeing Ryan's puzzled face, Fulia explained to Ryan in detail: "Obsidian is known as the fragment of the sun. It contains the purest energy, which can break all constraints. Well, to put it simply, obsidian is a carrier that can accommodate the power of order. Just a little bit of the power of order made this oak seed It takes root and sprouts according to the normal laws of this plane, completely ignoring the influence of the cold glacier water and fairy dust that inhibits the growth of all things. It is indeed the case. Since the entire Burning Angel Staff can summon angels to come, it must withstand the huge impact. For the energy of order, there is nothing better than using obsidian as the main body of the entire staff."
"Ah, then there is hope of repairing this artifact." Ryan couldn't help but ask,
"How can it be so simple?" Freya rolled her eyes at Ryan, and then replied softly: "Knowing how to do it and doing it are two different concepts. My Lord Archmage, even if he is an ordinary A magic apprentice can roughly understand how to release a forbidden spell, at least in principle, but if you want to successfully cast a forbidden spell... "
Fulia didn't finish her words, but Ryan already understood what she wanted to express. Indeed, if an artifact can be repaired so easily, it can only mean that the artifact is a fake. Ryan thought for a while and spoke again. Asked: "Then how do these pieces fit together?"
"Haha, your question touched on the most critical point." Fulia patiently explained to Ryan: "In fact, it is not difficult to understand the materials used in the entire artifact. After all, an artifact that can carry the power of order can roughly The materials can only be found within a certain range, and you can always find them if you search slowly. On the contrary, how to repair is the most troublesome thing. Take Cassano as an example. It can be said that it is very simple for you to build a building. , you can do whatever you want, but if you need to repair an old castle, you can't destroy the original structure and purpose of the entire castle, and you have to use limited repair methods, which is a headache. "
"Restricted repair methods." Ryan felt very fresh when he heard this statement, so he asked again,
"Of course, I am just a little elf woman, and you are just an ordinary male human. How can we have divine power? Without divine power, how can we repair the artifact." Fulia smiled. Said: "The reason why artifacts are called artifacts is that no mortal has been able to make them for so many years. To put it simply, it does not meet the most basic conditions, which is to have divine power. Only by possessing divine power can one have divine power, and the emergence of divine power is also It means that mortals eventually become gods, do you understand?"
Freya's somewhat convoluted explanation made Ryan's head a little confused, but if you think about it carefully, you will understand that this is indeed a very difficult problem. Without divine power, I am afraid that repairing it this time will take more effort. Find another way, and there is no way to guarantee that the effect of the repaired artifact will be the same as before. Since as a real artifact, the Burning Angel Staff cannot withstand the attack of the demigod lich, the Burning Angel Staff has been repaired by a mortal. I'm afraid it's just used to pass on the power of "Praise of Light". In any case, this is also a good thing for mankind.
