Chapter 116 Alchemist Lin Fan
Lin Fan recorded the three alchemy recipes and finally decided to try the simplest mana reel.
The Alchemy Notes emphasized several times that practicing alchemy requires strong financial support, because the materials required for alchemy are extremely expensive, and when you start trying a new alchemy formula, the failure rate is extremely amazing!
Sika has been getting the alchemy note for so many years, but she only has a flame wolf scroll on her body, because of the exaggerated failure rate of alchemy.
According to the alchemy note, he failed nearly a hundred times in total, and only succeeded three times. Each failure means that he would scrap a lot of alchemy materials and a magic crystal!
Even as a hundred people in the Blood Tooth Castle, Xika could not afford such huge losses. After refining three pieces, she did not dare to try to refine the Flame Wolf Scroll again.
Now Lin Fan has nearly 200 magic crystals in his hand. These magic crystals are already a huge asset for ordinary people, but in the face of the terrifying failure rate of alchemy, Lin Fan found that his possessions were not enough to be defeated and scrapped.
Therefore, he had to be more cautious and try the simplest level 0 magic power bomb first.
After making the decision, Lin Fan took out a powder that emitted a faint fluorescent from the material next to him. This is the powder of Xiangling Grass, the material necessary for refining the mana spring scroll, which can balance the elements in the scroll.
After preparing the powder of Xiangling grass, Lin Fan took another magical beast skin of a level 1 light monster, cut it with a wind blade to the size of a spell scroll, placed it flat on the table, turned around and took a level 1 water magic crystal from the pile of magic crystals next to him, and condensed it into two millstones using earth elements, directly crushing the magic crystal into powder.
After completing all this, Lin Fan took a look at the things on the desktop.
Xiangling grass powder, level 1 light-type magic beast skin, level 1 natural magic crystal. All the materials needed to make mana bombs have been completed!
With a slight smile, Lin Fan took out a metal rod emitting a faint silver light from the animal skin wrapped with spell materials next to him.
This metal rod is an alchemy rod for alchemy, and is the thing given to him by the owner of the Green Leaf House, the Rabbit Mage named Herb.
The alchemy rod is one foot long and half a finger thick. It is metal inside, and a layer of mitral on the outside is engraved with several magic patterns of different shapes.
Alchemy rods are necessary for alchemists. Many alchemy materials cannot be touched directly with their hands and are highly corrosive. For example, when making spell scrolls, you need to organize the powder of magic crystals into a summoning array. Before you reach the level of controlling objects with mental power, you can only do it yourself, and obviously you cannot complete such fine work with both hands. You can only borrow the alchem rod to complete it.
Alchemy rods have many functions. A good alchemy rod can greatly improve the control of the alchemist, and can even enhance the alchemist's perception of elements and reduce the resistance between elements...
However, the alchemy rod in Lin Fan's hand is very ordinary. In addition to the thin layer of mitral that can slightly reduce the resistance between elements, the magic pattern engraved on it is just the simplest "absorbing" and "release" and "attaching" the magic pattern.
As long as you use your mental power to trigger these magic patterns, you can produce the effect of absorption, release and attachment. This is also the most basic function of the alchemy rod.
Lin Fan tried to trigger the magic pattern represented by the absorption on the alchemy rod. As soon as the mental power touched the magic pattern, the magic pattern immediately burst out with a faint blue light, and a faint airflow hovered on it, forming a wonderful path, and a vortex airflow was generated at the tip of the alchemy rod.
Lin Fan approached the alchemy rod near the magic crystal powder next to it. The light blue powder immediately circled up along the alchemy rod and slowly rotated around the alchemy rod, like a star in the sky.
Lin Fan tried to change the input of mental power, and the speed of the alchemy rod absorbing magic crystal powder also changed accordingly. Reducing the output of mental power to the magic pattern, the absorption speed will slow down; increasing the input of mental power. The adsorption speed will also accelerate...
Lin Fan fell in love with this feeling and tried the two effects of release and attachment.
The effect of release is completely opposite to absorption. After absorbing the magic crystal powder onto the alchemy rod, as long as the magic pattern is triggered, the magic crystal material will slowly flow out like ink in a fountain pen. The speed of flow also depends on the control of Lin Fan's mental power.
The process of attachment is equivalent to "writing", and the magic crystal powder released from the alchemy rod is attached to the magic skin.
Lin Fan was a person who couldn't rest. After becoming familiar with the functions of the alchemy rod, he immediately began to refine the mana bullet scroll.
He used the alchemy rod to absorb enough magic crystal powder. Lin Fan sat down next to the table to calm himself down. He used his mental power to control the "release" magic patterns and "attached" magic patterns on the alchemy rod at the same time, and began to draw a summoning array of magic bullets on the prepared magic skin.
This step seems simple, but it is actually quite difficult. The alchemist must ensure that the mental power reaches a balanced state of input to the two magic patterns.
Otherwise, if the released magic crystal powder is too much and cannot be attached, it will cause the lines of the summoning array to be extremely thick and cannot produce any effect, which is a failed product.
Similarly, if the speed of release cannot keep up with the attached speed, the summoning array will have a breakpoint, because the summoning array must be completed in one go, so as long as a breakpoint appears, the entire monster skin will be scrapped!
This is also the reason why you must have extraordinary control if you want to become an alchemist. If your control is not strong, you cannot control both magic patterns at the same time, let alone maintain a balance between the two!
Lin Fan tried the first time, because he was a little excited, and his release speed was faster than the speed of attachment. As a result, lines appeared on the monster skin like tadpoles, and a precious monster skin was directly scrapped.
This also made him realize the complexity of alchemy. During the second attempt, Lin Fan calmed himself down and opened the Eye of the Mage.
This time he was extremely careful and tried to balance the release and attachment. With the help of the Eye of the Wizard, he could even see the flow rate of the elements with his eyes! This made him intuitive about the enchantment speed. Soon, a line with very uniform color and thickness appeared on the monster skin.
Seeing this scene, Lin Fan felt a little happy. But at this moment, the slender lines on the monster skin suddenly burst out with a faint blue light...
"not good!"
In Lin Fan's sight, the active water elements in the magic crystal powder on the magic skin. Attracted by the light elements on the magic skin, he suddenly began to restless! He just shouted, and the thin blue lines on the magic skin suddenly burst out with dazzling blue light, with a thud. These water-type magic crystal powders turned directly into a water mark and disappeared on the magic skin...
Needless to say, this monster skin is scrapped again.
"The elements inside the shattered magic crystal will become more active and are very easy to shape. If you try to make a spell scroll, unpredictable dangers will even occur! Therefore, when attaching, you must pay attention to the elemental balance between the magic crystal and the magic skin."
Lin Fan looked at the monster skin soaked in water, and his eyes were not disappointed. He thought about the contents of the alchemy note. After finding out the problem, he immediately started to try again.
This time, he did not rush to enchant, but took out a level 1 light-type monster skin, and his mental power controlled the enchantment speed, and used an alchemy rod to constantly try the balance point between the magic crystal powder and the monster skin.
With the help of the Eye of the Wizard, he could clearly see any changes in the magic crystal powder attached to the monster skin, so soon he found the balance point between the two!
"It must be successful this time!"
Lin Fan put a piece of monster skin on the table for the third time. He licked his lips, his eyes showed a resolute look, and said to himself.
This time, his spirit was unprecedentedly concentrated, and he was immersed in the alchemy rod in his hand, with his faint blood-colored eyes, staring at the tip of the alchemy rod in his hand without blinking.
As the alchemy rod kept wandering on the monster skin, the light blue thin lines gradually extended on the silver-white monster skin. Soon, the wrinkles of a summoning array were already vividly revealed on the paper.
Looking at the wrinkle of the summoning array, Lin Fan felt a little happy, but he did not dare to relax. After Jingxin completed the remaining few magic patterns, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Once the summoning array is completed, the lines of the entire summoning array seem to have their own life. The light blue light continues to swim in the summoning array, emitting a dreamy color. It is very magnificent...
Lin Fan looked at the summoning array on the monster skin and smiled on his face.
According to the alchemy note, when Xika refined the spell summoning array for the first time, he also chose the mana bullet scroll. However, it took him two years and failed hundreds of times before he finally successfully drew the summoning array!
Even the original owner of this alchemy note, the alchemist named Hainuo, took two months and failed dozens of times before finally succeeding.
Even if Lin Fan added this time, he only tried three times in total, and he had successfully drawn the summoning array!
Moreover, this is Lin Fan’s first time to come into contact with alchemy! His teacher is just an alchemy manual that has been stored for many years! If this incident spreads, it will definitely cause a huge storm in the world of the alchemist!
Lin Fan didn't know what a great thing he did. The spell scroll was still one last step before he could complete it. He pressed the joy in his heart, absorbed some Xiangling grass powder with an alchemy rod, and then controlled it with his mental power to evenly attach the Xiangling grass powder to the entire scroll.
Although the spell summoning array and the monster skin are in a state of balance, this state is not stable. As long as there is a little stimulation from the outside world, the entire balance state may be destroyed.
This unstable scroll cannot be carried at all and naturally cannot be used. The function of Xiangling Grass is to inhibit the activity of the spell summoning array.
In this way, the security of the spell scroll will be greatly increased. When needed, this low-level spell scroll can exert its spell effect as long as it destroys the spell scroll.
After completing the final work, Lin Fan picked up the mana bullet scroll.
Looking at this spell scroll he made himself, Lin Fan felt a little excited.
With his own alchemy works, he will be a mysterious and powerful alchemist in the future!
He took a breath, put the spell scroll back on the table, took a quill from the side, and wrote two words heavily in the lower right corner of the spell scroll with an almost solemn expression: Lin Fan!
Chapter completed!
