The alchemy workshop is both the place where Rorona works and where she rests and lives, so it does not lack the atmosphere of life. The small but compact living room area is covered with exquisite hand-woven carpets, mahogany tables and chairs, and ceramic tea sets.
They are all exquisitely made and have a gorgeous temperament like handicrafts; the air is filled with the aroma of blue-leaf mint from the deep sea, and a gentle sniff is enough to invigorate the spirit without a trace of fatigue; as for the lighting hanging above the head, it is not common.
Kerosene lamps and candles are instead a kind of prism called hydrofeldspar. The faint cold light blends with the sunlight slanting through the window, giving people a dreamy feeling, even the tiny dust particles floating in the air.
, all appearing as delicately as plankton on the seabed.
Sea angel fairies with wings as transparent as solidified snowflakes flew around the round table. One was responsible for filling the teacups in front of them with black tea, one was responsible for adding sugar cubes to the black tea, and the other was responsible for stirring the sugar with a silver spoon.
The sugar cubes melted. They had a clear division of labor. They looked cute like dolls, but they worked very seriously. The sea angel fairy who was responsible for adding the candy cubes would even raise his head to observe the expressions of the two from time to time, judging from the subtle frown movements.
I added more or introduced it myself, it is very user-friendly.
Why do we use the word "humanized"? Because they are indeed not living creatures, but dolls made by Rorona using alchemy. It is said that many precious materials are used, and their only function is to take care of Rorona.
Lena's daily life, such as waking her up, helping her wash and eat, or acting cute when guests visit.
It sounds like Rorona is like a useless person. She even needs alchemy dolls to take care of her daily life. But in fact, she has become very restrained. You must know that when she lived in Nereids, she had a whole palace.
There are three hundred maids on hand at all times, ranging from mirror elves to Warsaw murlocs to the half-saurus clan, which shows how grand it is.
In comparison, a mere three alchemy dolls are nothing.
As the second princess of the Nereids, the sea-dwelling princess of the Mirror of the Blue Sea, and the only son-in-law of a god among the mirror elves for thousands of years, Rorona received more respect and favor than ordinary people could imagine. When she fled her hometown,
Although it was a spur-of-the-moment idea and she was not prepared in advance, the treasures she took away from her private treasure house were enough to pile up a small mountain.
She is the most inconspicuous little rich woman on Yunjing Kong Island. Without this huge wealth to accumulate, would ordinary people dare to play with such high-end technology as alchemy? Moreover, Rorona's entrustment to her companions on the island is almost
She never refused anyone and never asked them to bring their own materials - Iyeta got two alchemy props from her, a telescope and a magical conch, but she never paid a penny.
Of course, there is only one exception, and that is Alice.
It's not that she's discriminating against her, but if there are no restrictions, this golden-haired maid will most likely make some shocking demands. Although Lorena is a rich woman, her wealth is insignificant compared to Alice's imagination.
After the Sea Angel Fairy poured black tea for the two of them, she stepped aside and hid behind the curtains to quietly observe the young man's reaction and wanted to know how he would evaluate the taste of this cup of black tea - Countess Neville would occasionally come to the alchemy workshop as a guest.
, mainly to rub Rorona's tea. The deep-sea variety of tea cultivated by the Mirror Elf clan contains a refreshing and long flavor like the sea breeze. It is a rare treasure on the earth. The Countess likes it very much, and she also has a deep love for the sea.
The tea art of angels and fairies is also highly praised.
But Ringer disappointed these cute alchemy dolls, because he did not pick up the tea cup at all, ignoring the mellow tea fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose as nothing, and stated his purpose to Rorona in a calm and serious tone.
"To put it simply," Rorona had already picked up the teacup, but after hearing Ringer's intention, she put it down again. The ceramic teacup gently hit the base, making a crisp and sweet sound, she thought thoughtfully.
: "Because the next stop is the Temple of Heaven outside the universe. In order to defend against possible extraterrestrial disaster beasts and interstellar tides, you want me to refine some parts with corresponding functions to ensure that Cloud Whale Sky Island can go smoothly.
Crossing the ancient road of stars?"
"That's right."
Linge nodded and said: "Although Cloud Whale Sky Island is protected by Ijeta's freedom kingship, that only eliminates its gravity, allowing it to fly freely with its huge and bulky body. But the material of Sky Island itself has not changed.
The change is still a product of the earth and stone structure. It can resist ordinary attacks, but it may not be able to sustain it in the face of extraterrestrial disaster beasts and interstellar tides."
If not, when they faced Titan, the Mother of the Earth, in the Thalia Fields, they wouldn't have needed to rely on Alice's cassette and just let the sky island crash into it - the terrifying kinetic energy given by the acceleration was enough to crush the earth in an instant.
The Mother Titan was smashed into pieces, but Cloud Whale Sky Island would also disintegrate under the impact of the reaction force, turning into earth and rocks all over the sky.
"I hope you can build Cloud Whale Sky Island into a battleship that can cross the star sea." Lin Ge put forward a demand that easily angered Party B without changing his face: "Just like Alice in "Sky Orbit: Zero Behemoth"
》Like the Type Zero Arus set in this cassette.”
The behemoth of the sky, the Type Zero Arus, is a dungeon, but its battle with the Earth Mother Titan established its status. If not for Linger's intention, this sky battleship alone would be enough to support him in the distant east.
On the mainland, he has become a domineering little warlord. When he will be wiped out by the Western Continent United Army is another matter. To use Alice's words, it will be cool first.
Of course, it is too imbecile to be friends with the young queen who controls the laws of the world, but only wants to be a small warlord, so Ringer has never had this idea. Alice...her intelligence and moral level are erratic.
Uncertain, Ringer cannot guarantee it.
"It's such an ambitious goal, and I'm afraid it's also very difficult." Rorona held up her chin with one hand. Although she said it was difficult, the look in her eyes was not hesitation, but excitement and thinking: "Since your
The requirement is to benchmark against the Zero Arus, so why not just use Alice’s cassette?”
"Because crossing the star sea is a long process, it may take months or years, and Alice's game cannot last that long." Ringer gave a reasonable explanation.
"In other words, we not only need to solve the defense problem, but also the durability problem... Well, it seems unrealistic to include the entire Cloud Whale Island in the defense range, whether it is a magic-sourced protective shield or one that relies purely on hardness.
Even the armor layer cannot support such consumption, unless we master the magic engine technology of the Witch Guild. In this case, perhaps we should make a choice and abandon some less important areas, focusing on defending the Fairy Sleep Inn, Primrose Field,
Herbal garden and other areas..."
Rorona put her other hand on the table, writing and drawing unconsciously, as if she was treating the tea table as her workbench, and was drawing an ideal drawing according to Ringer's request. This was her role as an alchemist.
The instinct of a magician.
Lin Ge didn't say anything for fear of interrupting her inspiration.
It is said that creators whose inspiration is interrupted will become very irritable, and Olvera dares to confront Alice. Of course, Olvera is not originally a gentle character.
In the past few minutes, the thoughts in Rorona's eyes gradually turned into a bright light. Linger knew that she had thought of a way, and then asked: "How is it? Do you have any ideas?"
"That's right."
Rorona came back from her thoughts, smiled and said, "But I may need Alice's help in this matter."
"Alice?" Lin Ge was surprised when he heard this: "How can she help...Ahem, I mean, what does this matter have to do with her?"
Are you trying to say that making games is very similar to alchemical magic, so Alice is also a great alchemist? Then I would really have to doubt your intelligence level?
"Ha ha."
Rorona understood Ringer's eyes and couldn't help but laugh out loud. She probably thought this was a ridiculous thing: "It has nothing to do with alchemy. The main thing is that I hope Alice will provide materials so that I can have my ideas."
possible.”
"Provide materials?" This is more believable than assisting in alchemy, but the question is still the same, what materials can Alice provide? In other words, is there any material that must be provided by her? Couldn't it be found in Rorona's treasure house?
?
"Yes." Rorona nodded slightly: "I need to use Alice's cassette, the one "Sky Orbit: Behemoth Zero"."
"I'm afraid this will be difficult." Lin Ge frowned upon hearing this: "Everyone can see how much Alice attaches importance to her game console and cartridges. If there is no suitable reason, I'm afraid she won't agree."
Rorona tapped her lips with her index finger, thoughtfully: "A suitable reason... can make her cassette stronger, does that count?"
"Become stronger? What do you want to do?"
"Use alchemy to change the internal structure of the cassette and add some additional functions to it, such as outer armor that can withstand interstellar storms, magic weapons that can fight alien disaster beasts head-on, and new energy engine devices... How
?”
Ringer couldn't help but have a look of surprise on his face: "Can you remake Alice's cassette? Can alchemy even do this?"
"It has nothing to do with alchemy. In fact, you have already seen similar examples." Rorona said with a smile: "In the game called "Dark Castle: Dawn Night Waltz", Olvera's teacher Mrs. Tree is not
Have you ever done that?”
Mrs. Tree.
This name evoked some memories from long ago. Ringer seemed to recall that in the final chapter of the castle, Princess Bemang encountered another personality of the dark witch Carabosse. The other person's power was almost overwhelming, even with the use of
After trying her best, the princess was still at her wits' end and was eventually stripped of all weapons and props. She was trapped in the original room, desperately waiting for time to come to an end.
However, it was at such a critical moment that Mrs. Tree relied on the power of the Holy Dagger Grass Catastrophe to forcibly intervene in this game that did not belong to her, brought hope to her student, helped her escape successfully, and mastered the
own destiny.
Even though the cost was her own death, everyone believed that the kind elder would not have had any regrets in her heart when she passed away. It should be said that she was very pleased.
The example of Mrs. Tree proves that Alice's cassette is not impossible to interfere with, but requires some special methods.
"There are many other examples." Rorona admired Ringer's thinking expression and said leisurely: "For example, on the Indosith Bridge, when Alice wanted to activate the cassette, but was stopped by external forces; for example,
In the cartridge "Duelists of the Chaos World", the power of a card can bring Ieta and Metien, who were staying on the Cloud Whale Sky Island, into the game... I think these examples should be enough to prove that,
I'm not kidding."
Ringer nodded subconsciously: "If so, it is indeed possible to convince Alice."
But it is only possible. The stubbornness of talented players in this regard is not understandable to ordinary people.
"In that case," Rorona tapped her lips with her slender index finger, and after thinking for a while, she said, "I will go to her in person to explain. For my sake, maybe Alice will agree? Of course, if
If she doesn't agree, just give her some alchemy props. I remember she has been coveting my memory shells and self-playing music box for a long time."
Well, this method is relatively reliable, at least more reliable than Rorona's face - I don't mean to belittle Princess Haiqi, I'm just telling you that if Alice doesn't get enough, she won't give anyone face.
"Then let's go." Linge said.
When Rorona heard this, a look of surprise appeared on her face. It was obvious that the young man's decision was unplanned for her: "Eh? Ringer, do you want to go with me?"
"Well." Ringer didn't think there was anything wrong and said in a matter-of-fact tone: "I just happen to have something to discuss with Alice."
"That's it."
This is the truth, but Princess Haiqi has an intriguing expression on her face. I don’t know if she believes it or not. Of course, Ling Ge doesn’t care whether she believes it or not. Anyway, he has experienced similar misunderstandings many times, and now he is used to it, and he is too lazy to explain.
What.
Now that she had made her decision, Rorona simply picked up the tea cup, raised her head and drank the remaining black tea in the cup. Then she stood up, glanced at the almost untouched black tea in front of Lin Ge, and chuckled.
He said: "Speaking of which, we rarely act together. If Sister Xiaoxia and the others see us, will there be any misunderstanding?"
Ringer was not willing to delve into what kind of misunderstanding she was talking about, so she only answered with two simple words: "No."
"That's really a shame."
"Pity?"
"I mean, this wouldn't be fun. By the way, why don't you try holding hands? It feels more fun this way."
