Mechanical armor

A general term for prosthetic equipment made of steel, mainly used as a prosthetic limb. The www.biquge.info feature of the pen "Fun" Pavilion is that it can be directly connected to the device through the terminal nerves, allowing the user to freely manipulate the mechanical armor. The terminal nerves transmit not only action commands, but also sensations such as pain, so the person who is fitted with the device will feel great pain when installing the device, and the part of the body that connects the prosthesis will be extremely uncomfortable in the rainy weather. However, not everyone can be fitted with mechanical armor, and if the body is too weak or the central nervous system is damaged, it will not be possible to perform surgery and install and use them normally.

There are more and more people injured in the civil strife who need mechanical armor. And later, because of the addition of alchemy technology, the mechanical armor function has developed rapidly. Even so, it still can't be popularized in Amsteris, the most important reason is that it is expensive. The price of the mechanical armor used by Ed is about 4 million ~ 5 million.

Although this practice is not widespread, mechanical armor can sometimes contain weapons inside. However, because the mechanical armor is filled with movable parts, there is little room for it. Only a subset of skilled technicians are able to craft mechanical armor that works smoothly and is equipped with weapons.

Alchemy

Alchemy is a technique for refining pills in ancient times, and it is the forerunner of modern chemistry. Alchemy is the alchemy of the new country, which is very developed in terms of medical treatment, but in the past, it was only the product of delusion and imagination, and it was a technology gradually formed in the process of the royal family looking for the method of immortality, so it cannot be called alchemy. However, because of the introduction of alchemy by the sage of the West (Edward's father), this technology has developed by leaps and bounds. Later, after mixing the techniques of the new (Xing) country since ancient times, it developed into alchemy. The basic of alchemy is to understand the flow of all substances in the world, and to correct the flow that alchemists call dragon veins. As long as this flow is understood, alchemy can be used. In other words, as long as there is something in flux, even if the object is a human or artificial object, alchemy can be used on the object. Because the alchemy of Amistolis is different from the alchemy of the new (revival) kingdom in terms of the energy source and the basic theory, the alchemist cannot understand the basic part of alchemy, so it is not easy to use alchemy.

The purpose of alchemy is to restore matter

Although alchemy is mainly used for medical purposes, it can be said to be a technique for restoring substances that have been damaged in the same way as healing the human body. The final step of alchemy can be defined as a step close to regeneration, as opposed to the last step of alchemy. Alchemy is characterized by long-range alchemy.

alchemy

Alchemy: It is the thought and ancestor of a chemical philosophy in the Middle Ages, and is the prototype of contemporary chemistry. Its goal is to chemically convert some base metals into gold to make a cure-all and prepare an elixir of life. Science shows that this approach doesn't work. But until the 19th century, alchemy was not denied by scientific evidence. A number of famous scientists, including Newton, have attempted alchemy. Alchemy existed in Mesopotamia, ancient Egypt, Persia, India, China, Japan, Korea, ancient Greece and Rome, as well as ****** civilizations, and then in Europe until the 19th century – in a complex web that spanned at least 2,500 years.

Alchemy in this game is a technique that can change the composition and shape of matter, and create another substance. The basic principle is equivalent exchange, and the quality and elements of the raw materials and the refined substances must be the same, so it is not possible to refine metals from water. However, because there are many metal elements (aluminum, iron, etc.) in the earth, most alchemists of the fighting school can use local materials to create a variety of weapons

The alchemy of Amestolius was mainly military, and he once used the national alchemist as a weapon during the civil strife in Ishvar, which played an important role in the early victory of the war.

The process of refining is divided into three steps: understanding, decomposition, and recomposition.

The difference with alchemy is that it can only be refined in a short distance.

Principle of equivalent exchange

The principle of equivalent exchange can be said to be at the heart of the work. It refers to a substance of the same mass and value, which can only be produced by alchemy after alchemy. It also means that in order to be successful, there is a corresponding price to pay. (That is, the 1:1 substitution principle, Al who returned to his body in the anime said that he wanted to try to rewrite this principle, changing from 1:1 to 10:11 (that is, if you get 10, you have to change out 11))

Forge into a formation

It generates the energy required for refining - the power of the circle

All the refining arrays are based on the circle type. There must be a center point in the circle, and the upward force that gathers from the circumference to the center point is the cycle of power = the power of consent. In addition, the circle also indicates the time cycle required during the refining process or operation.

A construct that expresses the process required for refining and the composition of matter

A construct is something that represents the composition and refining process of matter. From the perspective of modern learning, it can be seen as a chemical equation. After combining the structure with the circle, the formation is completed. Then, the alchemist sends the idea into the alchemy array, and the alchemy can be initiated.

Each alchemist's alchemy array design is different

Even if the same thing is to be refined, the alchemy array drawn by each alchemist will be different. Some alchemy arrays will be composed of pictures and words, while others will be composed of simple formations, and this is because each alchemist's understanding and construction method are different, so countless alchemy arrays will be thought of. The better the alchemist, the simpler the alchemy array can be used to carry out complex alchemy, such as Doctor Marco.

raw material

By placing the raw materials in the center of the array, the energy generated can be used efficiently without wasting anything. Even if there are other substances that are wrong in the refining array, as long as they are not included in the structure, they will not be directly affected. Because of this, when the energy provided by the material in the refining is not enough to maintain the alchemy, then the alchemist must lose part of his body at the cost of refining the rebound.

Synthmon

Refining from animals to animals is considered to be animal experimentation, so it is officially permitted to be refined. However, it is strictly forbidden to use humans as raw materials for human experimentation, or to use humans and animals to make synthetic beasts. But in fact, this is only an official claim to the outside world, and the official view of this research is classified as a first-class secret.

Philosopher's Stone

The legendary alchemical amplifier is said to contain immortal powers. In fact, it is a highly condensed body of the soul, and the cultivation of the Sage's Stone actually requires the principle of equivalent exchange, and it takes a lot of living people to practice. Red, there are solids and liquids, and strictly speaking, there is no fixed form. Corresponding to the variety of forms, the names of the Philosopher's Stone are also varied, such as: Philosopher's Stone, Heavenly Stone, Great Alchemy Elixir, Red Ultimate Substance, and Fifth Entity. The power of the Philosopher's Stone is not infinite, depending on the number of souls it condenses.

In the manga, the Philosopher's Stone is described as rejoicing in suffering, winning in battle, and regenerating the dead, a promise made by a stone as red as blood, and people respectfully call it the Philosopher's Stone.

The body is refined

Refining to heal injuries, such as regenerating a part of the body, is not considered to be human body refining, but is a medical act called body refining. Because of its ability to quickly heal wounded soldiers, the military also welcomed this treatment.

The human body is refined

In alchemy, human beings are considered to be made up of three things: body, soul, and spirit. In other words, as long as these things can be refined, it is possible to give birth to human beings without relying on the mother's womb. However, because it is against the laws of nature and social ethics, it is considered a taboo. While no one has been able to refine body, soul, or spirit at the same time, there are successful examples of one being able to refine one or the other (and Edward proved that this was impossible).

android

The artificial man is called Homunculus, which originally means dwarf, and here it means a person created by alchemy.

The humanoid creatures with the Philosopher's Stone as the core are: arrogance, gluttony, jealousy, laziness, ****, greed, and anger, and their names come from the 7 deadly sins of human nature in Catholic teachings

The android has been secretly active for hundreds of years in Amestories, and has abilities that ordinary people cannot imagine, and its creator is his father. The purpose of their actions were: the creation of the Philosopher's Stone, the collection of sacrifices, and the removal of those who got in their way.

The birth of an android

It was created by my father with the Philosopher's Stone as the core and separated from his own seven deadly sins.

Food for cyborgs

Artificial people can't survive for a long time, their food is the Philosopher's Stone, and if they don't eat it, their ability will be drastically reduced, and if they are heavy, they will die.

The ability of an android

The universal ability is the ability to regenerate, but it is not an infinite regeneration, and once the Philosopher's Stone on the body is used for light, it cannot be regenerated.

The weakness of androids

1. Take out the main Philosopher's Stone and smash it to die.

2. Doctor Marr created the Philosopher's Stone, so he knows how to destroy the refining array of the Philosopher's Stone.

3. If the recovery ability of the Philosopher's Stone is used up by continuous attacks, they will be killed like normal people.
