The capital city of the island republic is spread over rivers. In order to make medicine as soon as possible, Ayla and three other people, together with five guards, took two boats and arrived at the Alchemy University first. Due to the scarcity of boats at night, other guards could only choose to go overland for the time being.
Left behind.
Since all the teachers and students had been arrested, the entire university was dark. Surprisingly, the large iron gate of the school was open. There was a broken lock hanging on the iron gate. Ella felt something was wrong and walked up.
Examine the lock carefully.
However, the girl didn't seem to care about it at all. She said "I'm home" and started to take off her clothes in front of everyone.
Amy hurriedly stepped in between her and the pirates behind her: "Wait a minute! You're still outside the gate now. What are you going to do?"
"The clothes are too hot, but the sheets are cooler -"
"I'm still wearing fur! And even if it's summer, who would run around wearing a sheet all day long?"
"Tradition, common sense, and customs are just shackles that restrain people's wisdom..."
"Put your clothes back on for me!"
After a fierce struggle, the girl wrapped Amy's loose clothes with a resentful look on her face, turned her head and deliberately ignored Amy.
"The lock has been severely deformed. It looks like it was broken open by a heavy blunt object." Ella turned back and asked the girl, "Who did it? Do you have any clue?"
"Thieves will break into the school five days out of seven." The girl said nonchalantly, "But the alchemist's sleep time is random. No matter when the thief comes, he will see a large group of people burning the boiler."
"But there is no one in the school now..."
"There is nothing worth stealing. Avicenna stopped the allowances of his tutors for several months, and all the valuable things in the school were sold out. As for the research results, the alchemical texts are incomprehensible to outsiders. And, in fact,
There are no useful alchemical results."
The girl walked in through the door as if nothing happened.
"The most promising tutor in the school is George Starkey. The 'solid silver' he made is an alloy that is more stable than gold. I secretly tried it with 'King's Bathwater', even if it can
The strong acid that can easily dissolve gold is also struggling with his 'solid silver'. He has the only piece of this alloy in the world, and its value is much higher than gold. Unfortunately, he did not understand the powerful properties of this metal at all, and thought that
The transmutation of gold failed. An alchemist who regards refining gold as his ultimate goal can only see so much."
The houses of Alchemy University are divided into two rows, front and back. A wide passage runs through the entire university from the middle, dividing the two rows of houses into four blocks. The girl did not stop in any block, but walked into the last room of the school building.
A small forest. It was a place where garbage was dumped and excrement was buried. It was dirty and smelly. The girl's residence was arranged in a small wooden house at the end of the forest.
"The two committee members, Lazi and John de Rupisisa, used to be very powerful alchemists. But now Lazi has got into Jabir's legacy. John learned from the wine a few years ago.
I extracted an essence. After practicing it, I found that it had very good medicinal effects and called it the water of life. However, John himself thought that what he extracted was the immortal fifth element ether, and he was ecstatic and never stopped.
Before, I didn’t even know what this liquid could be used for.”
As the girl led Ella to the cabin, she sharply criticized the tutors at Alchemy University. Her words showed that she was well aware of the academic progress of the university.
"Why are you just a handyman?" Amy couldn't help but asked from the side.
The girl glanced at Amy and turned her head with a "hum", obviously still resenting Amy for forcing her to wear clothes. She didn't answer Amy's question at all, and continued on her own: "Except
Except for the few people I just mentioned, the remaining teachers and students are not even worth mentioning. This is the current situation of this university. Let alone a thief, this kind of place will be burned down
It’s so clean that it can’t be called a major incident…”
As she approached the cabin, the girl's footsteps suddenly stopped. Looking at the open wooden door and the light coming from the cabin, she looked at Amy pitifully, and her tone suddenly changed to a tone of help: "A major incident!
A thief broke into my room!"
Seeing that the thief actually entered the room of a handyman, Ella felt more and more that something was wrong. She winked at the five guards behind her and signaled them to surround the wooden house before rushing in. But the girl panicked.
He ran over and snatched the crowbar from Ella's hand.
"How dare you scare me? Look at me scaring him too!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the girl threw Ella's crowbar in the direction of the wooden house. As soon as the crowbar hit the ground, it immediately turned into a giant snake. It made a cold spitting sound and circled around the entire wooden house for three times.
Circle. If you are inside the house, you can see a huge long black shadow slowly moving outside the windows on the north and south sides at the same time.
The people in the room seemed to notice something and suddenly turned off the lights in the room.
This terrifying scene also frightened the pirates who were about to charge forward. However, Ella already knew that the Basilik made by the girl was very weak.
"Don't be afraid," she said to the pirates, "this snake won't bite you."
With Ella's words, the pirates felt more at ease and walked towards the wooden house step by step with confidence.
At this moment, a hair-raising laughter suddenly came from the wooden house:
"Alchemy Snake. Looking at the entire island republic, there is probably only one person who possesses this skill - Paracelsus, you are out there, right?"
When someone called her name suddenly, the girl was startled and hid behind Amy.
The voice in the room continued: "Paracelsus, I know that you are a powerful magician. But to what extent is your magic? The apostle of Xiaoyao School was very curious, so he sent me here
here."
"Paracelsus?" Amy cast a questioning look at the girl, "Is your magic very powerful?"
The girl shook her head vigorously like a rattle: "Only...only entry-level."
A lengthy chant came from inside the house:
"The reason why existence exists is that it must have the existence of essence and the existence of form."
"The existence of essence must have its form accompanying its existence."
"The existence of form is an accidental existence, existing because of the existence of other existences."
"Looking back in this way, all things are empty. However, since the world must exist, there must be a final cause. The existence of its own essence is the existence that establishes its own form."
