Chapter 33: Alchemy is a Science(1/2)
"You are so bad." Vanessa looked at Paris' body that was like a walking corpse without a soul, and said angrily to Qi Shi.
But when she saw others being so miserable, she couldn't help but feel a sense of relief in her heart.
Alas... As expected, the one who is close to the black is the black, and she has become a bad woman without realizing it.
Qi Shi said righteously: "Don't mess with people's innocence. I am known for my integrity."
Vanessa rolled her eyes at him and echoed angrily: "Yes, yes, you are the most upright, because you have killed anyone who dared to refute."
Just kidding, if Qi Shi can be considered upright, then the Grand Duke will be a baby as pure as a blank sheet of paper, well...a giant baby weighing two hundred pounds.
"I think you're distracted, Vanessa." Seeing the other party teasing him like this, Qi Shi raised his eyebrows and said with an unkind expression.
"Hey, you said it's okay to argue!" Looking at Qi Shi with an unkind expression, Vanessa backed away in a panic.
A few minutes later…
Vanessa covered her cheeks that were slightly red from being pulled by Qi Shi, and muttered aggrievedly.
"Liar, whatever you say about a family is a lie."
Qi Shi's expression remained unchanged: "No, we are indeed a family. But obviously, I am the head of the family."
…
"Wow, it looks impressive." Vanessa's face was still a little red, and she curiously walked into the alchemy room and looked at this and that, amazed.
"Qi Shi, do you really know how to do alchemy?"
"Is it hard to believe?" Qi Shi did not deny that alchemy was not difficult for him, a master of cultivation, to understand.
"It's really hard to believe." Vanessa nodded.
She also grew up listening to fairy tales about alchemy. In this era, that kind of magical alchemy only existed in fairy tales.
After spending some time in the Arena, she heard that there was an alchemist in Mondstadt, and she excitedly went to visit him.
It's just that the reality is very cruel, and the alchemy in her imagination is completely different from the heaven and the earth.
"What is this?" Vanessa curiously picked up a transparent hourglass, which contained blue glittering powder.
Shaking it in the hand, the powder swirled and danced in the hourglass, sparkling with colorful and moving phosphorescence, just like the twinkling stars in the sky.
"It's just a failed semi-finished product. The indescribable stunning beauty of the essence will make people fall into a temporary trance." Qi Shi said slowly. He looked at Vanessa's stiff and motionless movements and stared at the beaker, feeling a little helpless.
Speaking of.
"Of course, you won't hear this sentence."
Vanessa seemed to be offline, her eyes were unfocused, reflecting the bright hourglass on her hand. It took a full five minutes for her to wake up.
Vanessa didn't notice anything strange about herself, and she exclaimed without realizing it.
"It's so beautiful, this thing."
Looking at the powder that had become silent again, it shook again, and the bright powder turned into a beautiful star. Vanessa fell into a disconnected state again.
"..."
Seeing Vanessa waking up from the offline state and still planning to shake the hourglass for the third time, Qi Shi rolled her eyes and snatched the hourglass away.
"Hey! What are you doing? Look, it's not allowed." Vanessa shouted angrily.
"Alas..." Qi Shi sighed and shook his head, saying nothing.
"This thing is so beautiful, why don't you give it to me?" Vanessa smiled and pasted it.
"No, this is a semi-finished product and very dangerous." Qi Shi shook his head resolutely.
"Stingy..." Vanessa pouted and muttered in a low voice.
I'm afraid you'll starve yourself to death...
Qi Shi didn't refute, just rolled his eyes and thought.
"Huh? What is this?" Vanessa found something conspicuous again and ran to a stone slab with strange patterns.
The pattern on the stone slab lit up, and a gentle breeze blew by, causing Vanessa's hair to fly.
"It's just a semi-finished product." Looking at Vanessa who was as curious as a baby, Qi Shi said weakly, suddenly feeling the pain of raising a naughty child.
"No, this thing is very powerful." Vanessa said, her pupils flashing with unknown meaning.
Qi Shi's eyes showed a hint of surprise. He didn't expect that Vanessa was very nervous and a little silly, but she could see things quite accurately.
In Mondstadt, the natural wind has divinity. Divinity is difficult to explain clearly, but we can give an example.
For example, even an extremely gentle wind can drag the wings of the wind.
Even in the cold winter, the gentle breeze blowing by is still so gentle and does not give people a biting feeling.
This is Mondstadt's wind divinity.
This kind of power is not possessed by ordinary wind or artificial wind. It only belongs to the wind blown naturally by Mondstadt, the country of wind, or the wind created by the wind god Barbatos.
This stone slab was made by Qi Shi, who was bored out of his spare time, using the Wind Seal which contained some wind power as raw material.
Man-made wind can possess the same divinity as natural wind.
This is like a man landing on the moon. Although there is no actual benefit, it is very memorable and a milestone in human development.
The same goes for this semi-finished product, which can be said to be the most valuable product here.
Vanessa stared at the stone slab with serious eyes.
"This thing..."
"Yeah." Qi Shi nodded, intending to see what Vanessa could say.
"You can hang it at the door of the bathroom and use it to dry your hair." Vanessa turned her head and said to Qi Shi with a serious face.
"Qi Shi, this is really a great alchemical product."
"..."
"I won't change my expectations for you." Qi Shi sighed with worry.
"Huh? Isn't that how it's used?"
"Forget it, you don't understand even if I tell you." Qi Shi waved his hand in disgust.
"Hey! Don't look down on me so much, okay!"
Under Vanessa's unsatisfactory pestering, Qi Shi could only tell her the characteristics of Mondstadt's wind.
…
After some explanation.
Vanessa scratched her head in confusion and said doubtfully: "Isn't the wind... just like this?"
"Imitating the characteristics of... natural wind? What's the use of it?"
"Strictly speaking, it really has no practical use." Qi Shi gave a pertinent answer.
"Then why are you studying it? After all that, isn't this thing still just for hair drying?" Vanessa asked confusedly, expressing the doubts of a scumbag.
"You can understand that I'm showing off my knowledge." Qi Shi didn't want to play the piano to a cow, so he waved his hand helplessly.
"Oh~" Vanessa nodded in understanding.
"Let's get down to business." Qi Shi sat on a chair nearby. After hearing this, Vanessa quickly came over.
"In Teyvat, if you want to become stronger, you cannot avoid the elements. You should have heard of the Eye of God."
"I know this. The Eye of God can give the user the power to control elements, but the residence of the Eye of God is given by God. It is too ethereal." Vanessa nodded.
"It's better to say it's control than communication. The Eye of God is an external magical organ that gives the user the power to see and communicate with elements."
"Communicate and control."
Qi Shi told an unknown secret: "When the Eye of God was given by God, it was actually in an unopened original state and could achieve a resonance based on different users."
"It is the user who determines whether he can control the elements and what attribute elements he can control. It is never the Eye of God."
"These users are born with an affinity for certain elements and can even feel these elemental forces, but there is no way to directly affect them. The Eye of God is such a tool to assist these users to affect the elemental forces.
Tool of."
When Qi Shi said this, he looked at Vanessa and said slowly: "Not to mention that others cannot use the Eye of God after completing the resonance. Even if you get the original Eye of God, you still cannot complete the resonance and control the elemental power.
"
"Why is this..." Vanessa was a little disappointed. She also imagined that one day she would be able to get the Eye of God and kill everyone.
"Don't be so sad. If you don't have a magic organ, just make one." Qi Shi said in a casual tone, as if it was as simple as cutting your nails.
"The power generated by itself is definitely much stronger than an external auxiliary device like the Eye of God."
Vanessa looked over with bright eyes, and suddenly felt that Qi Shi's figure suddenly looked much taller and more handsome.
"And you can also choose what elements you want." Qi Shi looked like a boss and leaned on the chair.
"!!!"
