Lawson now has two furnaces in his alchemy room, one for making glass and one for melting metal.

The glass stove is basically modeled after the Savi glass shop, with only minor improvements. Metal furnaces, on the other hand, are small and have a peculiar structure.

The furnace is only about half a man tall, and the main body is somewhat similar to a blacksmith's furnace, with a bellows, but its fuel is not ordinary charcoal, but special charcoal powder. The structure of the combustion chamber is also almost completely closed, leaving only three openings.

Two of the ports are air ducts, and one is used to add charcoal fuel.

Next to the combustion chamber is a funnel-shaped object, which is a special container for charcoal powder, the lower end of the container leads directly to the combustion chamber, and there is a switch in the middle to control the flow rate.

When everything was ready, Rosen threw Viken's skull into a heat-resistant crucible above the combustion chamber, and then activated the power of alchemy to activate the purification.

He removed oxygen, nitrogen, water vapor, and other gases from the air, leaving only an extremely chemically stable inert gas next to Viken's skull.

This is a crucial step.

Because titanium is a chemically reactive metal, it can not only react with oxygen, but also begin to react with nitrogen at temperatures higher than 700 degrees, and even burn in nitrogen.

Without inert gas protection, Lawson would end up with a compound of titanium, not a metal titanium.

After protecting Viken's skull, Lawson pulled the bellows with his hands, and at the same time, he began to gather oxygen in the air.

After a few consecutive pulls, the air in the combustion chamber was basically replaced with pure oxygen.

Rosen gently twisted the switch of the fuel container, and the toner immediately flowed down the channel, quickly permeating the entire combustion chamber, mixing with oxygen.

The use of toner was inspired by the Earth's thermal power plants. Coal-fired power plants burn coal, and in order to improve combustion efficiency, the coal is broken into pulverized coal for use.

Of course, this trick can't be used indiscriminately, if there is no corresponding knowledge reserve, charcoal powder and pure oxygen are enclosed in a closed environment and ignited, and if one is not well controlled, a violent explosion will occur!

Seeing that everything was ready, Rosen took a deep breath: 'Electromagnetic scythe...... Ignition. ’

"Whew~~"

The combustion chamber suddenly lit up, and in the almost pure oxygen, the charcoal that had been ground into powder burned at a terrible rate, the color of the flame was pure white, and the light emitted was unusually dazzling, and the temperature in the combustion chamber began to rise in a straight line.

With such a violent burn, if the operator of the furnace were replaced by an ordinary alchemist, it would definitely end up in a tragic end of furnace destruction and death.

But in Lawson's hands, this furnace is a super weapon that can deliver temperatures of up to more than 2,000 degrees. At this temperature, WKU's skull can easily melt into a liquid state.

Inside the cauldron, Viken's skull lasted for about 30 seconds, then began to turn red and white, and after about half a minute, it turned into a mass of liquid metal that emitted white light.

Rosen's mind tentacles reached inside the liquid metal, carefully analyzing its composition.

The main ingredient has a cold, hard breath and a peculiar softness, which should be titanium metal. In addition to titanium, there are trace impurities, including carbon, oxygen, calcium, phosphorus, ...... Well, it's a bit similar to normal bone composition. These ingredients are useless, culled! ’

Lawson launched purification.

In the combustion chamber, bubbles begin to appear in the liquid metal, and as these bubbles are generated, a pungent smell fills the air.

The bubbles lasted for about half a minute, and then the texture of the liquid metal became very pure.

The impurities are basically gone, and this is a piece of pure metal titanium. ’

Lawson turned off the switch to stop supplying toner, then opened the lid of the crucible, and his thoughts moved slightly, and the liquid metal titanium that emitted white light turned into a sphere and floated out of the crucible.

In order to prevent the deterioration of the titanium metal, the liquid titanium ball is still tightly wrapped around the inert gas.

'If the metal titanium is really Mithril, but it is necessary to use this metal to refine the moonlight elixir, so such a whole piece of metal will not work. ’

Thinking so, his mind moved, and the power of alchemy turned into a dense thin net, quickly cutting into the liquid metal titanium mass, splitting the fist-sized liquid titanium into small particles the size of sesame seeds.

Rosen's mind froze: 'Burst! ’

With a soft sound, the liquid metal titanium burst open, quickly solidified in the inert gas, and turned into silvery-white titanium grains the size of sesame seeds, and then these titanium grains were collected together by Lawson's alchemy power to form a small silver-white pile of sand.

The hot titanium particles are collected, and after they have cooled naturally, they are placed in glass bottles, mixed with inert gas, and sealed for storage.

After doing all this, Rosen raised his hand to wipe the fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

With the power of his current two-layer electromagnetic scythe, it is not tiring to control the combustion of toner, and it is not a burden to purify oxygen from the air with three uses, and the most tiring thing is to burst the metal titanium.

Rosen secretly sighed in his heart: "For my current strength, the metal bond is still a little too strong. ’

He activated the alchemy talent and looked at it, his current talent proficiency is only 7%, and the free talent points are only 0.3 points, which is far from activating the third layer of electromagnetic scythe.

'My current magic power is stronger than that of a 1-star mage, but much weaker than a 2-star. Although there are not many one-star magicians on the mainland, they are not few, and there must be thousands of one-star magicians in Nilogaard Academy alone. When I entered the academy at this time, I was completely out of the ordinary. ’

In this day and age, knowledge is important, but power is even more important. If you don't have the strength, even if you are a sage and a saint, someone else can blow your head with a hammer, so why should you listen to your nonsense?

After resting for a while, Rosen shouted into the air, "Veronica, are you free, come and see if this is Mithril for me." ”

His voice wasn't heavy, but Veronica was next door and could definitely hear him.

Less than 3 seconds after the sound fell, Rosen felt a gust of wind appear in the alchemy room, and then, Veronica appeared in the alchemy room.

"Where's Mithril?" Veronica asked.

"On the table, in a glass bottle." Lawson gestured to the bottle.

Veronica walked over, opened the glass bottle, and saw that it was filled with silver-white metal the size of sesame seeds, and her heart suddenly moved: "Hiss~ It's really like!" ”

She reached out and picked up a grain of titanium, first squeezed it hard with her hand, observed it carefully, and after a few minutes, she put the titanium grain into her mouth again, as if she was tasting the taste.

Rosen waited anxiously for the verdict of fate.

After about five or six minutes, Veronica nodded slowly: "This should be Mithril!" ”

Rosen was surprised and delighted: "Are you sure? ”

Veronica still nodded, "I'm sure." Your Mithril is softer than I've ever seen, but tastes almost identical. I think the reason why the Mithril I saw at the beginning was even harder was because of the impurities mixed with it. ”

Lawson was overjoyed: "Then how many moonlight elixirs can these Mithril refine?" ”

"These Mithril are about 1 Nilo pound, and if you sell them for money, they should be able to sell them for five or six thousand gold dragon coins, but if you configure the Moonlight Elixir....... That's probably enough for you to last three months. ”

These words suddenly made Rosen's heart cold: "Mithril of five or six thousand gold dragon coins can only be used for three months?" ”

It's also too extravagant.

Veronica smiled, "Don't forget, during the three months of taking the Moonlight Elixir, you will be completely unaffected by the Bloodmark Magic, and even the effects you received before will be cured. After that, if you don't have a moonlight elixir, you can continue to take low-grade exorcism medicine and last for another year. Do you still think these three months are useless? ”

Saying this, Lawson was in a much better mood, and then his eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes, what am I worried about?" Since pure titanium is Mithril, why don't I go find titanium? In the earth's crust, the abundance of titanium is not low. ”

Thinking like this, the gloom in Rosen's heart disappeared.

He had already prepared the other ingredients for the Moonlight Elixir, and he used it immediately, and after a few minutes, he had prepared the potion and swallowed it in one gulp.

When the medicine entered his stomach, Lawson felt that the whole person shook violently, and a cold breath suddenly rose in his stomach, which was like water, radiating from the stomach to all parts of the body, and finally, Lawson felt that his whole person was cold, and even the bone marrow had a cold feeling.

Veronica had been paying attention to Lawson's situation, and when she saw that Lawson's face was pale, she hurriedly asked, "How is it?" ”

Rosen felt that the whole person was wooden: "I can't say it, I feel that someone is scraping my internal organs with a knife, scraping my bones, and still priing my bone marrow, but it doesn't hurt, the whole person is cold and cold." ”

Veronica was stunned when she heard this, she had never encountered this situation, so she could only say, "Wait and see." ”

"Hmm."

Rosen nodded, trying to activate the power of alchemy to observe his body. As a result, he found that in just a few moments, there was no titanium in his stomach. All of this titanium metal is transformed into metal ions, which are distributed on the internal organs, muscles, blood vessels, and bones, and then they are motionless, completely unaware of what they are doing.

'Strange, when did my stomach become so strong in digestion?' Rosen was completely confused, and what made him even more puzzling was that he didn't find anything unusual except that titanium had turned into ions.

'What the hell. ’

After about half an hour, the cold began to subside, and after another half hour, everything was back to normal.

Rosen carefully felt the changes in his body: "It seems to be better...... Hmm~ The brain is clearer than before, and the inexplicable negative emotions before are basically gone, and it seems that the memory has also improved a lot. ”

What pleased Rosen the most was that after using the moonlight elixir, there was no pain at all except for the strange feeling of coldness, which was a hundred times better than the low-grade exorcism.

Veronica breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, yes, it seems that the moonlight elixir can indeed fight against blood seal magic." ”

Lawson was about to speak, when there was a knock on the door of the alchemy room, and the voice of the butler Ah Fu sounded outside the door.

"Mr. Rosen, I have a guest visiting."

"Who?"

"Mr. Morbius."

Rosen heard it strangely: "Didn't you send the battery to him yesterday?" Won't he admit defeat? ”

Veronica spread her hands and shook her head, "I don't understand it either." It's better to let him in and see what he says. ”

"It's fine."
