Chapter 130 [The New Invention of the Old Monster]
Chapter 130 [New invention of old monster]
Early the next morning, Gargamel dragged his tired body to Duwei, and then stretched out his paw. In his palm was a very crude-looking metal ring... Well, this could barely be considered a ring.
Bar.
The mouse, who had been working hard all day and night, looked very tired. But this guy's craftsmanship was really poor. It was clearly just a small iron ring made of a metal bar.
"Is this a ring you made?" Du Wei looked at this thing with a wry smile... It was more like a thimble ring on a tailor's finger than a ring... He exaggeratedly said loudly: "Dear Gargamel, fortunately
You are not a jeweler, otherwise you would go bankrupt."
Gargamel was a little dissatisfied, and he said coldly: "Stop talking nonsense! I spent a lot of effort to get it! I mixed a little mithril into this ring, but since it is a secret weapon, I concealed it and used it again.
Ordinary fine iron has been tempered. It is a weapon anyway, not a real decoration. Why do you make it so beautiful? During a battle, if someone notices this thing, the first thing they will do is cut off your fingers!
understand?"
Du Wei nodded, and he recognized what the mouse said: "I was just joking."
But then Du Wei checked the inventory and was stunned!
For this small ring, the mouse actually used up a lot of mithril! Precious mithril is hard to get! It actually used up the little mithril that the Magic Guild gave last time.
Less than half!
"It's worth it." Gargamel said seriously: "Metals are repellent to magic! Adding mithril will make you more quickly and secretly extract the magic power from the ring during battle! No one will even notice.
!Do you understand?"
"Okay." Du Wei sighed, but thought in his heart: Mithril is also a good thing, so he has to think of some way to get more of this kind of thing!
Magic Guild?
Du Wei pondered for a moment. Anyway, he happened to be going to the Magic Guild today. The broomstick belonging to old madman Alec was still waiting for him!
Having made up his mind, Du Wei immediately packed up his things and put on the ring.
This thing is indeed made very concealed! Even the multicolored stone has been inlaid by mice into the metal sandwich of the ring! The multicolored stone cannot be seen from the surface at all!
In the words of Gargamel: The multicolored stones are precious enough for someone to assassinate you! There are still evil magicians on the mainland. If people know that you have such a thing, they will be the first to kill you and steal the gems.
!
Of course, very few people know about this precious top-grade material. But just in case, it is better to keep a low profile.
Indeed, few people know about such legendary and precious things as multicolored stones. For example, Clark saw it clearly and didn’t even know what it was. And Gargamel, because he was once an eighth-level magician of the Magic Guild,
Only then can you recognize this kind of thing.
After going out, leaving the mouse and penguin sleeping at home, Duwei once again asked someone to prepare a carriage and go to the Magic Guild.
But this time, Alpha Guard Chief actually followed him. Du Wei didn't say much.
When we arrived at the Magic Guild, the old madman Alec had probably made preparations in advance and asked a disciple to wait in the Magic Guild. Du Wei had met that guy yesterday, and when he saw Du Wei coming, he looked at him with a pity expression.
Boy...Oh, such a pitiful guy. It seems he didn't recognize the terrifying face of the teacher!
Du Wei didn't feel the sympathetic look in his eyes, but his heart moved and he asked cautiously: "By the way. What is the use of the gem that Master Alec gave me yesterday?"
The guy was stunned for a moment, then sighed and looked at Du Wei helplessly: "I don't know much about that thing, but I heard from the teacher that it is a very high-grade magic crystal, and its capacity to store magic power is better than ordinary crystals.
Ten times more! Alas. We asked the teacher several times but he didn’t give it... Now, it’s easier for you guys."
Well, Du Wei nodded. It seems that this guy doesn't know the true use of colorful stones.
Du Wei was relieved.
This time when he entered the interior of the Magic Union and passed through the magic circle, he did not dare to provoke the two terrifying monsters from the Magician Law Enforcement Team. When he arrived under the high tower inside, the guy immediately stopped: "Okay,
Go in by yourself. Just dial the number on the crystal plate of the magic circle to 'nine'. The teacher is on the ninth floor... And I remind you, don't try to dial other numbers! Every one here
There is a great magician living on each floor. Without the owner’s permission, you can’t get in if you dial other numbers! Moreover, it will also anger the owner there!”
Du Wei nodded and took note. Then the guy ran away as if he was afraid of seeing the teacher.
Du Wei entered the tower himself and reached the ninth floor through the magic circle.
After leaving the magic circle, Du Wei was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him!
What a big place!
This room is as big as a basketball court, but it is piled with all kinds of materials in a mess!
Even the erudite Du Wei was stunned by so many things! The skeletons and magic cores of various monsters, as well as some precious magical plants that Du Wei could only see from literature... But here they are.
It’s like it’s piled up everywhere like garbage!
Du Wei even saw the magic cores of some intermediate-level magic beasts of quite good quality, thrown so casually in the corner, with a lot of dust even falling on them.
"Well...this is the rhizome of 'Abakale Man-eating Vine'. I heard that this kind of thing is almost extinct. Ah, this is 'Neil's Grass'! God, this can be
Excellent material for refining gold!" Du Wei became more and more shocked as he looked at it!
He is indeed an old monster from the Magic Guild! He has collected so many good things!
Du Wei walked in in surprise and passed the large room, but there was a narrow passage inside. Standing outside the passage, he could vaguely hear the sound of ding-ding-dong-dong knocking coming from inside. It was also accompanied by a faint smoke...
Du Wei frowned and walked in.
It seemed like a magic laboratory inside. There was a metal platform in the middle... Du Wei almost fainted after just one glance!
Good guy! There is definitely a lot of mithril mixed into this metal platform! Du Wei can tell this from the luster of this metal platform!
In order to avoid the rejection of magic power by the metal platform during the magic experiment, precious mithril was used so wastefully! This old monster is so generous!
You know, at home, in Solskjaer's magic laboratory, the test bench used is still made of a black inkstone material. That kind of thing has very little repellency to magic, but it has a very strong
Stink.
Alec was busy on the test bench. The white mage robe on his body was almost full of stains, and there was some black dust on his face. He was fiddling with an instrument in front of him.
Du Wei could see that this seemed to be a thing that refined some kind of substance. The small miniature baking furnace fire below had a green flame. It was probably a high-temperature flame obtained by burning some special magic plant.
The transparent vessel above is actually the place where pure magic crystal is made! There is a green slurry inside that is bubbling under the baking of the flames. The vessel is sealed. But there is a
The leather tube was inserted inside, and the leather tube extended to another container next to it. From the other end of the tube, a light green smoke was coming out bit by bit.
What surprised Du Wei even more was that in order to filter out the impurities in the smoke, Alec actually used a double-sided filter! Du Wei also recognized this filter. It was made of a filter called "Eating Crystal Lynx".
The earth is made from the lungs of "lynx" monsters! This kind of lynx lives underground and specializes in eating magic crystals. Their lungs are the best material for filtering magical harmful objects! However, this kind of thing is extremely rare. Hunting is difficult.
Very difficult!
Old Alec seemed to be immersed in the experiment and did not notice Du Wei's arrival at all.
Probably after testing a key procedure, the old guy looked nervous and stared at the smoke coming out of the leather tube. The light green smoke was filtered by two layers of filters and finally filled up.
In a crystal vessel, the smoke stained the inner wall of the crystal vessel and gradually condensed into green crystals as big as sesame seeds!
Du Wei stood aside and watched for a long time. Old Alec still ignored him, and the muscles on his face were trembling. Suddenly he looked at the green smoke, his face changed, and he said to himself: "No, no, no...
It will still condense...what should I do...what should I do..."
Du Wei suddenly couldn't help but said: "Is it to prevent impurities in the smoke from condensing?"
"Nonsense!" Old Alley replied subconsciously without looking back: "Condensation means there are too many impurities in the smoke! What a pity... The filter made from the lungs of the 'Eating Crystal Lynx' is still not good... I need more
A taller filter! What I need is purer smoke, and then I can turn the smoke into liquid! Understand! But they always form crystals! Damn it!"
"Liquid? Why don't you try the stamens of the 'Mori Flower', which is the best dissolving substance. Maybe it can dissolve these crystals into liquid."
"No!" Old Alec still shook his head: "Once these crystals solidify, if they dissolve again, they will mutate and have no effect. Alas... How can we make these smoke solidify directly into a water vapor liquid?"
After a pause, Old Alec finally came to his senses. He suddenly turned around, saw Du Wei, and slapped his head: "Ah! Boy, it's you who's here! Well, what you said is to use moxa flowers to dissolve again."
Stamen... This is a good idea. At least you know more about magic potions than my stupid apprentices! Well, not bad, not bad! It's a pity that all my apprentices look down on magic potions. Alas... none of them can be
My assistant’s.”
Duwei stared at the green substances in the crystal bottle: "What are you doing?"
The mysterious and proud smile on old Alec's face: "An absolutely good thing! If it can be made... hum!"
It seemed that it was rare for him to see such a magician who was very interested in magic potions. Overjoyed, he actually took out a parchment, handed it to Du Wei, and said with a smile: "Take a look!"
Du Wei took it over, glanced at it, and was stunned!
This is obviously a recipe, but... isn't this recipe too complicated?
Almost all of the plants listed above are magic plants! And looking at these densely packed things, there are more than thirty kinds of plants! Most of them are extremely precious things, and there are even several kinds. Du Wei read in some documents
According to records, it is said to be extinct!
"What formula is this?" Du Wei frowned: "It's too complicated. More than thirty kinds of magic plants are combined together, and the conflicts of some of the substances have to be considered."
"Hmph! This is my genius invention!" Old Alec grinned a few times: "Tell you, I am trying to refine these things into a liquid, which I call 'Alec'
Blood'! Haha, what a good name!"
Du Wei stuck out his tongue...named after his own blood, what a weird old monster.
"This liquid, what are they used for?"
"Used to replace mithril!" Old Alec's shocking words stunned Du Wei!
Replace Mithril?!
"Humph! You know, almost all metals are repellent to magic! Therefore, it is very difficult to add magic to weapons. And the only way to neutralize the magic repellency in metal is to use
Mithril. But Mithril is too rare. It cannot be used in large quantities." Alec smiled and said: "However, if the test of the liquid I refined is successful, I only need to refine some liquid when forging weapons.
Among them...haha! Then any metal weapon can be enchanted with magic at will!!"
Can any weapon be blessed with magic in the future?
Wouldn’t it mean that weapons with magical properties will be everywhere in the future?
Du Wei was stunned by this amazing idea!
Nowadays, the magic-blessed weapons that can be found on the mainland are considered rare treasures! If they can be popularized in the future... then...
But soon, he glanced at the formula sheet in his hand, sighed, and suddenly said: "But, I have a question."
"What? Boy, do you have any questions?" Old Alley said impatiently.
"This...many of the magic plants on this recipe list are extremely rare! If you use these things, even if your experiment is successful, the kind of liquid you can get...but, this kind of thing is so expensive
, I’m afraid it’s harder to get than Mithril! What’s the value of such a product?”
"Uh..." Old Alec was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth wide, and froze.
Du Wei calmly took the formula, and while old Alec was in a daze, he used all his energy to read it carefully several times... With his outstanding mental power, he quickly read the formula
Memorize it alone, and then remember it firmly.
Rare and rare magical plants?
With spring water like "Time Passes", I can cultivate even rare and precious plants!
