Arriving at William's underground workshop at the dock again, it was William's mechanical puppet who opened the door for Quines.
"Here you go, sit down." William concentrated on operating an alchemy table.
Quins did not interrupt and quietly watched William's operations on the alchemy table. With just one glance, Quins could tell that William was refining a special steam bullet. After all, the warhead was placed there, and Quins was not blind.
It turns out that this is what real steam bullets look like. After looking at it for a moment, Quins thought. Before he studied inscriptions, Quins always thought that extraordinary steam bullets were just engraved with a few runes on the warhead.
That was it. But after actually seeing William's refining process, he realized that the refining of steam bullets was not like this.
William used some special alchemy method to refine the mysterious steam energy directed from the steam furnace into steam runes that seemed to have solidified, and then combined them into miniatures to form the required witch formation, and finally used
Special alchemy equipment that compresses steam is pressed into the warhead and sealed. In this way, an extraordinary bullet is basically completed.
If you want to go one step further and carve runes linked to the steam witch array on the surface or even the inner wall of the warhead, the power will be even greater. Of course, to achieve such a level of sophistication, the requirements for alchemists are very high.
William Dart used this method, and he did not have any ideas to hide in front of Quines. Alchemy, the method of obtaining alchemy is relatively simple, the real difficulty is that how to achieve it is the real key
location.
Phew, William breathed a sigh of relief after refining the last bullet.
Quins said: "Are you refining level 3 bullets?"
William did not deny it and wiped the fine beads of sweat on his forehead: "Yes, big changes are coming, so we still need to reserve more backup options. How are you doing there?"
Quince: "Fanny Cecil has just arrived, and is probably already at the Iron Rose Mansion. The master who came with her is Lot Leonard, the Furious Lion, one of the Tigers."
William frowned: "Is there only one master?"
Quins shook his head: "This is naturally impossible. The Furious Lion should only be a master on the surface, and there must be others hidden secretly. Don't forget, the Royal Patrol Group was sent out half a month ago.
The vanguard has entered Tigue, but what surprises me is that I haven’t heard a single word about this at the headquarters.”
William: "Did you not come?"
Quins shook his head and denied: "Impossible. For such a big thing, it is impossible for the Royal Patrol Group to take no action at all. The most likely possibility is that the vanguard has abandoned the investigation department and is dormant in Tiguet to act secretly."
William shrugged: "Maybe, maybe they also think that the Investigation Department is no longer reliable."
Although Quins said that he was now a member of the Investigation Division, he did not refute it. If we really want to seriously examine the matter, the May strike cannot withstand scrutiny. A strike caused heavy losses to the Teague Investigation Division, even causing the loss of two sub-bureaus.
Being temporarily cancelled, even Quins himself does not believe that there is no internal agent in the Investigation Section. And now, among the only remaining people, no one can tell who is innocent. Maybe there is an internal agent who faked his death.
It cannot be said that there are no people who escaped, but continued to lurk at the risk. Even if they were transferred from other cities, can you say that no other forces took advantage of the situation and made some small moves?
Therefore, the current Teague Investigation Section has truly become a department that no one likes to deal with. Just look at the behavior of the Royal Training Corps Pioneers, and you can tell one or two things.
After thinking about these links, Quins suddenly understood why William Dart only found him to form an alliance. Not only because he had learned more about Quins after testing him, but also because he was the only person in the investigation department who had a well-founded background.
A new recruit who can be investigated. To be honest, the one who appears to be the most innocent in the Teague Investigation Section is actually him, the newcomer who just joined.
As he learned more about the Investigation Division, Quins suddenly realized that he seemed to have jumped from one fire pit into another. Fortunately, he still had a chance to prove himself in the latter fire pit and bury the pit himself.
. He could also imagine that the situation of old Schmidt, Shotgun, Robert, and even the other two directors was not as easy as they seemed.
In this battle in Tigue, many other forces may be aiming at the thing that is not even visible now, but only the Tigue Investigation Department, they are fighting only for themselves in order to prove themselves. That's okay.
It was expected that in the future, even the Royal Patrol might become their enemy. Quins suddenly understood the embarrassing situation of the Teague Investigation Section in this dispute.
"Without saying this, are you ready with the things I asked you to prepare?" Quins asked.
"It's good morning, I've been waiting for you to come." Seeing that Quines didn't want to mention it anymore, William stopped provoking him. But seeing Quines' thoughtful look, he knew that his purpose of reminding Quins was already over.
Reached.
Walking into the warehouse, soon, a large trolley was pushed out by William with some difficulty. Ingots of copper-yellow copper ingots were neatly stacked on the trolley. On top of the copper ingots, there were dozens of
A box.
"One ingot per pound, a total of one thousand ingots, all of which are four-refined copper essence." William waved his arm: "This is not light. I have also bought all the other materials for you."
Quins calculated in his mind for a moment, it was almost half a ton, Quins happily said: "Okay, okay."
William: "Why do you need so much copper essence? Although the fourth refinement is not an extraordinary material, it is still the top copper material below level 0."
Quins smiled slightly: "Of course it is to refine the first-level copper essence." The reason why Quins asked William to prepare the fourth-level copper essence instead of unrefined copper wealth was because he was afraid that unrefined copper materials would consume a lot of money.
Just looking at these four-refined copper essences taking up the boss's space, he could imagine that William's entire workshop might be filled with unrefined copper materials. By then, his temporary sealing cards might not be able to seal them all.
.
As for why we don’t want copper essence refined above five levels, it’s simpler. Five levels is already a level 0 material, entering the category of extraordinary materials, and the price between ordinary things and extraordinary materials is the difference between heaven and earth. If Quines
If he really buys more than five-refined copper essence, his less than 500 gold coins will soon be deflated. Therefore, the fourth-refined copper essence is the most suitable copper material for Quines. Next, he can only rely on the furnace of all things.
Refined.
William was surprised: "You...you can refine the legendary copper essence?! That...that is the ten-refined copper essence."
Quins didn't deny it: "Just give it a try."
William: "Try it?! Can you please don't use such a relaxed tone? That's the legendary copper essence. It can't be completely solved by just giving it a try."
Quines remained silent. We will know whether it is true or false when the time comes. Without real experiments and refining, Quines would not be able to fully explain what he had said.
Quince: "How much does this thousand ingots cost?"
William: "50 gold coins."
"50 gold coins!" Quines was surprised. He knew the price of goods in Saruna very well. For 50 gold coins, ordinary people would have to save up for at least two or three years without eating or drinking. However, Quins didn't say much.
What, he was already mentally prepared to embark on the path of a wizard.
Open the boxes on the copper ingots one by one. In one box are placed various gems, rubies, sapphires, pearls, amethysts, emeralds, emeralds, jade, etc. In the other boxes, each box is packed separately.
I got an extraordinary material, green stone, bird meat crown, charred wood ashes, water centipede venom gland, golden mantis corpse, foolish fish brain, raven tail feathers, and dried wood pine cones.
"Thank you, it must have taken a lot of effort to acquire these." Quins looked at the materials of these advanced witchcraft cards and said happily: "How much does it cost?"
"50 gold coins." William accepted calmly. Although these items were all level 0 materials, their origins were distributed in various places. It took him a lot of time to acquire them.
Quins nodded and took out the check he had prepared long ago: "100 gold coins for you." He gave the 100 gold coins willingly. If he had to collect these materials, he would have spent a lot of energy.
But it's too big.
William was not polite, and after taking the check from Quins, he said: "If you really want to thank me, after you refine the legendary copper essence, you must leave some for me, and I will pay a lot of money."
Quins thought, "Yeah, why have you forgotten this? If you really refine the legendary copper spirit, you still have to worry about the gold coins not rolling in. But then Quins thought of talking about three temporary seal cards every month.
He immediately stopped thinking about making a lot of money in a short period of time. But in his heart, he already had the idea of making his first dead card.
"Don't worry, if there is a rich man, I will definitely leave it to you." Quins patted his chest and said that with this incident, William's value has greatly increased.
William: "How do you plan to transport the copper essence out? These are not light."
Quins flipped his hands, and he already had the last temporary seal card in August: "Don't worry, I have a way." With a flick of his finger, a seal formation appeared on the ground under the cart, and within a moment, the cart was
The copper spirit on it disappeared, and when it appeared again in the hand, the blank seal card had changed its appearance.
"It turns out to be space secret arts." William couldn't help but look at Quines with admiration. In this world, space secret arts are only the patent of some middle- and high-level professionals, and space wonders are not as common as in some novels.
Things can be seen everywhere, but they are extremely rare. However, William did not ask too much. Every family has its own secrets, and secrets are the core secrets of every professional. They are absolutely kept secret. Ask the other party's
Esotericism is taboo in the occult world.
The reason why Quins openly took out the temporary seal card and used it was, in addition to the above reasons, because he was confident. Although the mysterious world has withered a lot nowadays, I dare not say that there are all kinds of weird secrets emerging one after another, but the lost secrets
He was sure that there were countless others, and his sealing ability was definitely not the most miraculous one among those secrets, so he was not worried about what other thoughts William would have after seeing it. Even if others had any thoughts, they would distort their thinking.
It's not some lost esoteric tradition coming forward.
