Chapter 179: Magic Elixir
Watching the female hostage mage ask for a small box. Chen Jian couldn't help but look forward to Wan Ming
And looking at the cautious appearance of the two halflings carrying the box, Jian Chen was even more sure that the box must have some magic items.
But when the box was finally opened, Jian Chen couldn't help but be stunned.
Inside the box, there are small glass bottles lined up with a whole meal.
The inside of the glass bottle is filled with red and blue potion-like liquids.
What is it? Chen Jianjue's things looked a little familiar, but for a while, he couldn't remember where he had seen them.
The sorceress picked up a small glass bottle with a blue liquid and said, "This is a magic potion, specially made for magicians, and drinking it can partially restore the magic power."
。
Then she picked up another small glass bottle with a red liquid: "This is a healing potion, the effect is the same as the healing ** in limb magic, anyone can use it, and after drinking it, it can have a certain healing effect." As long as the injury is not too serious, it can be effectively recovered
Hearing this, Chen Jian finally remembered where he had seen similar things, weren't these things the so-called blood red bottle and demon blue bottle in those magical online games played by his classmates in his college dormitory when he was on earth in the past?
Good stuff!
Chen Jian's eyes glowed as he looked at the two bottles, one red and one blue, in the female magician's hand, and shouted wildly in his heart.
What kind of scene would it be if the magicians under his command drank the blue bottle while casting spells, and the soldiers drank the red bottle when they were injured?
But another thought. This thing may be the same as the iron man, it takes time and effort to make, so you will be happy in vain.
Therefore, Jian Chen asked with some concern: "This thing is not troublesome to make, right?" ”
The female magician shook her head and said, "It's not troublesome, as long as there is a recipe and the equipment in the laboratory, you can make it with a little knowledge of alchemy!" ”
Chen Jian couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this: "It's so easy? Can we produce in large quantities? At that time, the soldiers and magicians will be able to continuously fight several steps! ”
The female magician burst out laughing when she heard Jian Chen's words: "Lord Lord, you are really a very greedy person! ”
This sentence made Jian Chen and the other low-level magicians a little strange.
Marche also laughed and said, "Lord Lord, although these magic potions are quite convenient to make because they are only the most basic potions, the materials required to make them are quite rare, and if you want to make them in large quantities, it is impossible!" And because of the different grades of materials, the effects of the production are not the same, some are better, some are inferior, we can buy such materials in Hammondal, it is already quite a rare piece of excellence! And the mastery of alchemy is not so easy. I won't, and there aren't many magicians here who know how to do it, it's quite a profound science! ”
Jian Chen was completely speechless.
He found that the gap between the ideal and the reality was always unexpectedly far away, and this discovery made him very depressed.
"Do we still have the materials on hand? How many more can be made? Jian Chen roughly clicked and found that the potions in the box were only more than twenty bottles in total. Almost half red and half blue.
"No more!" The sorceress shook her head and said, "All the raw materials we can buy have been used up, and all the finished products are here!" That's it, and you've already spent thousands of gold! ”
"What!" The female magician's words made Jian Chen almost jump up, and the bottle of healing potion he was holding in his hand and admiring it almost fell to the ground, "This thing burns so much!" ”
During this time, he had money in his hand, Chen Jian was full of confidence, and he didn't pay much attention to the amount of various expenses, when the female magician asked him for money, he was also very generous and waved his hand, and asked the female magician to withdraw it with the old housekeeper herself, but how much he had withdrawn, he didn't know, and at this time, when he heard that the cost of these potions was so high, he was suddenly shocked.
"The material cost of a bottle of healing potion will cost hundreds of gold coins, and the magic potion will be even more expensive, not counting my salary as an alchemist!" The female magician, who had already expected Jian Chen's reaction, laughed out loud again, "Those five iron men are also very expensive, if it weren't for our own iron ore, Malkaem and they would help us refine it for free, and the minting fee was also discounted, each cost was almost one thousand one hundred gold coins." But now we can make one for about 500 gold coins, which is quite a good deal! ”
"Five hundred gold coins!"
Jian Chen gasped, and his eyes had changed when he looked at those iron men again: "These iron guys are so valuable? Are they made of iron or gold? ”
"That is, the magic materials required to make these magical creatures are also very expensive! If you really want to make it in large quantities, you need to plan well in terms of financial resources! But they don't need to eat, they don't need to be paid, and they are strong in combat! So if you really want to calculate it, it's still worth the money. But only if you make sure they don't get destroyed by the enemy too quickly! Otherwise, you're going to lose a lot! ”
While everyone was talking, they saw the half-elf Pete hurrying over: "Lord Lord Kepai has sent the latest information!" Ever since Jian Chen wrote to the Empress stating that he would recruit troops to defend Hammondale and maintain order in the area. The three thousand emperors sent by Mlak to garrison Hammondale City had to retreat in disgrace, but they did not go far, and Mrak, who was always unrelieved of the aliens and the humble sword in Hammondal, let them be stationed not far from Hammondale City, still monitoring all the movements of Hammondal.
However, although Chen Jian was very strictly guarded, Mlak did not have any conclusive evidence to prove that Chen Jian had bad intentions, so whenever there was important military information, he would still send a copy to Chen Jian according to the regulations of the army.
Chen Jian hurried back to his camp, opened the information and looked at it, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but be surprised.
When Empress Catherine led her army to reinforce the eastern defense line of the Empire, she was unexpectedly attacked by the Kregans, and the army led suffered heavy losses, and the Empress herself was wounded, but fortunately the injuries were not serious.
Presently. The situation on the eastern defenses of the empire was already quite critical, and Empress Catherine was trying to salvage the defeat, but the effect was not obvious.
The Reich is now regrouping its forces and preparing to support the eastern defense line once again.
This situation deepened the worries that Jian Chen had been thinking about again.
No doubt. This defeat of Empress Catherine would have had quite a serious effect on her already precarious position. In this way, there will be even less time left for Jian Chen.
Meanwhile, in Vilningburg, Mrak was also frowning.
He couldn't believe what the information he had in his possession said.
Empress Catherine, who was always invincible on the battlefield, would be defeated by the Cleagans who only knew how to rely on crowd tactics to win? How is this possible?
Mrak, who had followed Empress Catherine on her battles, knew very well how well the Empress was on the battlefield, she was so good, so good, at the level of strategy and tactics, even with Mlak's arrogance. He also had to admit that Empress Catherine was a cut above him.
How could she be defeated? How could she be defeated?
If it weren't for the Empress then sending another letter to Woolak, reminding him that the current Kerrigan army was no longer what it used to be, Mrak would have wanted to send a letter to the Emperor's Ministry to question the authenticity of this information.
All of this turned out to be true! Mrak looked at the description of the change in the Kregan in the letter sent by the Empress. Lost in thought.
Why did the Kerrigans make such great progress? What are the reasons why they have changed so much?
And what is the reason for their war? As for Empress Catherine's statement that the Krigan Demon wants to destroy the world, Mlak didn't believe much, like Jian Chen, he didn't think that there would be such a crazy race in this world, but what puzzled him was that, just as Empress Catherine expected, the Kregans had invaded the Erathian Empire, a country far more powerful than them, with the power of a single country, without allies.
In Mrak's eyes, such an act was simply a kind of suicide that could not be attained.
And behind the Erathia Empire, there is also a holy alliance of the Triple Alliance, although Mrak does not think that the Elven Kingdom and the Bracada Mage Kingdom will be loyal allies of the Empire, but in any case, the Holy Alliance is still very deterrent to the outside world.
What made the Kregans dare to take such a huge risk to invade the Empire? If they are sure to win, what do they rely on?
Is it as Empress Catherine said? Kerrigan's race is all crazy people who want to destroy the world? That's why they act so irrationally and impulsively?
As he thought about it, Mrak couldn't help but move his eyes to the sword at his waist.
The sword was a treasure that he had accidentally snatched from some of the Archdemons of Clipagan who had appeared in the Empire on his way to Harmondale to take office.
In order to exterminate the small group of demons that appeared inexplicably, Mlak took his personal guards and gathered the angels in the local garrison, and tracked them for more than ten days before finally encircling them in a grassland.
This sword was his trophy at the time.
Vulcan Sword.
He heard the Legan devils call this sword that, and they seemed to take it very seriously, and the Kerrigan people wanted to give it away even if they wanted their lives.
After asking the knowledgeable magicians in the army, he learned that this sword was a divine weapon that has been handed down from ancient times to the present, but the specific effects of this sword are not known to those magicians.
In addition to being particularly sharp, this sword is not a big deal, if it is special, that is, it can produce flames to burn the enemy when swinging the sword.
But this kind of function, after an ordinary sword is blessed with fire-based magic, can also do it, which is not surprising.
I was contemplating. Bremmer, the Imperial Knight, hurried in.
"Lord Mrak, the new castle in Hammondale is finally finished! Do we want to be as predestined? Let those 3,000 men be stationed in it? ”
