Orthodox goldstone alchemists have detailed plans when making alchemy items, and spend a long time doing related research. Finally, they have to repeatedly calculate and experiment before they can officially start production.
Moreover, to make an alchemy prop, creativity, talent, vision and technology are indispensable. Otherwise, we can only stick to the rules and follow the path of our predecessors.
Therefore, the vast majority of alchemists spend most of their lives in alchemy, and they are not necessarily successful. With little inspiration, the finished product can only follow the rules and have no new ideas; when inspiration comes, unrestrained enthusiasm may not be successful in the end. Instead, it may be too reckless without considering the internal balance between materials, leading to more serious consequences. , such as an explosion.
So there are very few alchemists, and even fewer talented and capable alchemists.
Angel has never thought about where his alchemy journey will go. Now he is thinking more about how to use the alchemy method to create the blueprints of earth weapons.
In the holographic tablet given by Jon, there is a lot of data stored, but not all the data, and there is very little information on weapons.
Jon is a researcher in botany, and he has no interest in the weapons of fighting and killing. The limited storage of weapon maps on the tablet is actually some 3D prints that he copied from the Internet when he used a 3D printer to make models when he was in college. Atlas.
Among them, there are some maps of cold weapons, and there are also maps of several simple firearms. Angel's ultimate goal is naturally firearms, but he is not too ambitious. Firearms are only the last step. Before that, he wants to make some cold weapons to practice.
Moreover, he also needs time to familiarize himself with various materials in the wizarding world.
…
In the theoretical part of alchemy, after Angel had a general understanding, his eyes naturally swept to the special technique of epigraphy.
Angel ignored the advanced tricks or formal spells that he could not learn; instead, he looked at the O-level tricks and the first-level tricks.
There are only 5 types, namely: "O-level Trick: Heat Melt", "O-level Trick: Condensation", "1-level Trick: Smelting", "1-level Trick: Freeze", "1-level Trick: Magic Barrier"
The hot-melting method preheats the magic power for a long time at a predetermined frequency, and finally achieves the effect of melting the material. It is a technique for changing the shape of a material. However, because the warm-up time is long and the final temperature is very high, it is necessary to maintain a high degree of concentration at all times during use.
The condensation method, as the name suggests, uses the freezing method to shape the desired material.
The above are two types of O-level tricks, and there are three types of level-1 tricks. Among them, smelting and freezing are actually enhanced versions of hot-melt and condensation, which can be smelted faster and more accurately and shape the mold you want.
Magic Barrier is a defensive spell with a long action time and a short duration. It is a technique specially tailored for alchemists to prevent accidental explosions during the alchemy process.
Angel estimated that after the negative effects of his spell backlash were healed, he should only be able to use the O-level trick heat fusion method and condensation method. Therefore, in the process of watching, he focused on these two spells.
After memorizing the main points of these two tricks, Angel suddenly remembered one thing. The special spells of epigraphy he was looking at were actually collected in Sanders' collection. He hasn't seen the alchemy booklet recorded by Nightmare Realm, is there any difference
Angel did what he thought of, opened the holographic tablet, and found the magic chapter of "Basics of Alchemy" - the magic part.
The hot melt method, condensation method, smelting technique... It seems that it is no different from Sanders' alchemy collection. Angel continued to turn the page, freezing technique, magic barrier...
Angel's eyes suddenly lit up. He saw an exclusive spell for epigraphy that was not mentioned in Sanders' collection!
"Blackening Technique"!
"Huh? Why is there no spell level?"
With doubts, Angel carefully read the contents of the blackening technique.
In the alchemy world in ancient times, there were many factions, among which the death faction dominated by Ordoros was an extremely mysterious faction in the alchemy faction. What they advocate is "death and rebirth", and they symbolize black as the original state of chaos.
Ordoros once said: "Black is a true color, because black has various varieties, and black is the origin of all other colors."
Death faction alchemists, advocating black, believe that black is death. And blackening is a kind of rebirth.
Blackening means letting all matter die and exist in another form: the Four Primarchs.
Tetraprime, a slag that has neither luster nor any metallic properties, represents a new substance that appears after the metal dies.
The blackening technique is to transform all matter into four primordial bodies, producing new properties, even unique properties.
For example, the thermal fusion method is to change the shape of the material; the blackening technique is to directly change the properties of the material!
The consequences of the change are not recorded in the book, but according to Angel's knowledge, everything must have two sides, and the blackening technique must be good and bad, and we will talk about it after the implementation.
According to the book, there is no level of blackening, because it determines the amount of blackening the target according to the magic power of the alchemist himself.
The more magic power is instilled, the more blackened parts are naturally, and it can even achieve complete blackening and become the Four Primarchs. The less magic power is instilled, the blackened part will also be reduced accordingly. It is only related to the amount of magic power instilled, but it has no rank itself. It can be used by wizards of any level, even a rookie apprentice like Angel who has just stepped out of the mortal boundary for a few days can learn it.
After reading it, Angel had a general understanding of the blackening technique. However, the specific casting situation will not be determined until after the end of his spell backlash.
However, Angel guessed that this blackening technique should be an extremely precious technique.
You know, there has always been a saying in the alchemy world: the shape is changeable, but the character is hard to change.
There are alchemy methods to change the properties of matter itself, but all of them require formal wizards to learn! Because "changing traits" is about to come into contact with the essence of alchemy, how could a low-level alchemist be involved
But the blackening technique has achieved this, which is unheard of in today's alchemy world!
Seeing this, Angel suddenly wanted to know, what exactly is the identity of the warden of the Prison Ladder in the Nightmare Realm? "Singularity Scattering Meditation" has already surprised him, and now "Blackening Technique" has appeared, and this is only what is recorded in the primary alchemy manual. Angel is looking forward to it. When he learns the latter, what surprises will await him
…
The appearance of the blackening technique made Angel excited for a while.
But soon, he turned his attention to other things.
For example, he plans to learn the theory of the basic set of techniques in the next time, and then apply what he has learned after the thinking space is calmed down.
The so-called set technique is actually a kind of formation of the technique.
There are a lot of magic tricks for wizards, not to mention the magic tricks created by themselves, there are thousands of tricks used by wizard apprentices. If you count the "dehumidification technique" and "water delivery technique" named by Angel a few days ago, it is possible to count millions or tens of millions.
From the vast cloud of spells, choose a set of spells for your own use, which is called a set of spells.
Generally speaking, a set of spells consists of four structures: main attack spells, blessing spells, control spells, and recovery spells.
Of course, each wizard has different sets of spells, and some will add defensive spells and detection spells; no matter how much the structure of the spell is, it ultimately depends on how you apply it.
For example, control spells, some have learned frost drop, some have learned greasy, and some have learned flash. In actual combat, how to apply these techniques reasonably is the key. A wizard apprentice can learn a complete set of techniques, which can basically handle most situations.
However, sets of spells are generally only respected among wizard apprentices, because apprentices do not have so much time, energy and magic power to learn more spells and can only specialize in certain spells. Official wizards, however, do not have such troubles.
Moreover, the set spell also has obvious weaknesses, because the single spell is easy to be restrained by the opponent. For example, the Immortal Ice Emperor can only use the technique of frost. If he encounters the bloodline side, or studies the fire element, then it is easy to fail the routine and be reversed.
Therefore, the set is only suitable for wizard apprentices.
Angel also intends to choose a set of his own. However, he did not intend to limit his frame to this set. The reason why I chose to learn the routine at this time is just to prepare for climbing the tower, in case of emergency... In other words, it is cramming.
Angel did not choose the spells according to the structure of the basic set of spells. He abandoned the attacking techniques, and instead focused on control and defense techniques.
Once his alchemical weapon is made, the attack will naturally rely on the alchemical weapon, all he needs is to stop the opponent from approaching him, and prevent long-range tricks.
Grease technique, flash technique, ice wall technique, uneven light and shadow... Angel explained the techniques he needed one by one, and then silently memorized his theories.
Time flies so fast, three days have passed in a blink of an eye.
The routine chosen by Angel, or his routine, has basically been selected. In order to prevent the opponent from approaching, even if it is close, it can also hide the figure through the uneven light and shadow. I can't stop it, and Toby is there.
When he learns these tricks and successfully makes alchemical weapons, it is time for him to go to the tower to realize himself.
The study of the routine has come to an end, but the mind space is still not fully recovered, so Angel can only continue to learn other content.
During this period, Nausicaa and Sairum had come together, the purpose was to invite him to do tasks together and earn contribution points. Angel refused their invitation on the grounds of his own illness.
After they left, Angel had nothing to do for a while, so he simply looked at the information that David transmitted to his Sky Tower seed players.
