Chapter 113: The School and the Wild Wizard
"My current research topic is to find ways to stabilize the storage of 'potent voodoo potions'.
Only in this way can it have the value of being applied to actual combat, otherwise no matter how lethal it is, it will be useless if it cannot be taken out of the laboratory. ”
As he spoke, Dilis picked up a piece of paper from the table and handed it to Aven: "Here, this is the recipe for voodoo potion and powerful voodoo potion, you can take a look at it first." ”
I was a little surprised by Dilis's generosity, after all, the theoretical knowledge in the library was very sound, but the specific potion recipes were few and far between, and they were not of much value. Now she hasn't helped herself, and as soon as she makes a move, she has this highly practical potion formula, which can really be called a big deal.
With the help of "digital vision", Ai Wen read the formulas of the two potions at a glance and ten lines, and by the way, he has already recorded them. With the knowledge of potions that he had been making up in the Shadow Library during this time, it was no longer a problem to understand and even prepare potions of this level.
As the signature poison of "voodoo" that is widely prevalent in the Southern and New Worlds, the "Voodoo Elixir" has been perfected by successive generations of dark wizards, and has reached a very high balance in both power and stability.
It is also widely used by dark wizards nowadays.
The reason why many people talk about "voodoo" is that in addition to the high black magic such as resurrecting corpses, mysterious spirits, and voodoo dolls, which are only known by their names most of the time, this notorious poison is the most important attribute.
The "Potent Voodoo Elixir" is obviously a change made by later people to the original recipe according to their own understanding, which not only greatly strengthens the power, but also destroys the original stability.
The consequence is that it is extremely difficult to store, and any wind and grass may cause it to explode on the spot, which is extremely lethal but almost impractical.
Not... Maybe it would be very useful to kill someone?!
It's just that with Aiwen's current knowledge, it's okay to formulate it step by step, but he really can't make further improvements to this formula.
However, he also knew that Dilis was asking for help from a few of his own people, and it was unlikely that he wanted to get the final answer directly from himself, but wanted to get inspiration and hints from other people's perspectives.
This is where I have my strengths.
From the violent nature of this potion, it really reminded him of a famous weapon raw material in his previous life - "smokeless gunpowder".
There are three basic methods of scientific research: induction, deduction, and verification.
So he thought for a while, and said tentatively: "Maybe we can add an additional stabilizer without changing the original drug ratio?"
"Extra... Stabilizer?"
"Yes, I envision this stabilizer to slow down the drug reaction, maintain chemical equilibrium, reduce surface tension, and prevent photothermal or oxidative decomposition. It's like the violent reaction process of the drug administration plus a brake valve commonly used in steam engines, to cool it down and brake!"
Chewing lightly on Aven's words, Dilis's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he clapped his hands: "Ah! why didn't I think of it?"
This is sometimes the case in scientific research, where a difficult problem that some people think is difficult to solve can make a major breakthrough at the unconscious prompting of others.
Although Evan only proposed a solution, it helped Dilis point out the direction of future research, which was a great help.
"Great, a potions researcher's mind really can't compare to those two wooden heads. Once I have a direction, the rest of the work will be done, and I may soon be able to bear fruit on this project, thanks to you, Aven!"
"Hehe, I didn't do much, we just got inspiration when we were working together on solutions. Evan said a few words modestly.
However, looking at Di Lisi, who was very excited, Ai Wen suddenly thought of a question, and just took this opportunity to ask: "By the way, Di Lisi, what does Alva mean when he said that he has not joined the alchemy school yet?"
"Oh yes, you just joined, you don't know yet. As a reward for helping me a lot, I'll give you a science popularization, which is a secret that new members can only know after passing the observation period!"
After the breakthrough in the research, Dilis was in a very good mood, and she didn't care so much about the leaks that might be in violation.
"The Violet Eye, as a sorcery based in the open sea, has been a semi-official organization that has been on the upper echelons of the kingdom for at least a few decades since it entered into a partnership with the kingdom.
However, it never recruits members from outside and actively expands its scale. ”
Speaking of this, Diliston paused, as if organizing the language.
"You should know that those of us who join the 'Violet Eye' must be members of the Kingdom Navy, the Noble Family, and the Naval Academy, right? Whether it is a regular cadet like Benson or a short-term officer like you, they are all Kingdom soldiers.
Don't look at me as a girl, in addition to the special family I came from, I also have the rank of civilian major in the logistics department of the First Fleet. Only those of us who have this dual identity can be recognized by both sides, and it can be regarded as a mutual compromise after years of running-in.
Anyway, as far as I know, the association never seems to have worried about whether its organization will be completely infiltrated by the kingdom.
Then the new members will be observed from time to time, and after the ability assessment, the outstanding performers will be accepted into the school to obtain inheritance. ”
"School?" Evan knew that Milan was a soothsayer belonging to the school of prophecy, and he originally thought that this school was the same as the academic school in his previous life, but listening to what Dilis meant was obviously more than that.
"That's right, it's the school!' 'Alchemy School' to be precise......"
After listening to Delith's explanation, Evan was very glad that he had obtained that little library card!
The level of occultism he had been exposed to before was too low, and from Leon's notes, Tru's memories, and Milan's words, there was no way to know that there was a difference between "school wizards" and "wild wizards" in this world.
Although the wizard path is not shackled by other transcendent paths, and whether it is powerful or not depends entirely on the accumulation of wisdom and knowledge, it is not bound at the same time, and it also does not enjoy the protection of fixed paths.
In addition, wizards are a group of guys who are dedicated to exploring the truth, and the risk of getting out of control has always been high.
In order to solve this problem, a long time ago, the sages with extraordinary wisdom jointly created the world's first school after a long period of exploration and summary!
Using the school's original witchcraft, systematic advanced rituals, artificially created sect mysterious sources, etc., to create a relatively safe route in the middle of the road.
Then use the power of the entire school to resist the risk of getting out of control, and the stronger the overall strength, the more stable this line will be!
Moreover, the advantages of stable and systematic inheritance do not stop there, the more outstanding talents with similar research directions are added, the more mature and perfect the relevant knowledge system will be, and the stronger it will represent in the knowledge-first wizard group.
And all this is something that the wild wizards don't have.
While they are at risk of losing control of wizards far beyond the school, they are crushed by school-of-school wizards in terms of spell-casting ability, and the word "miserable" is no longer enough to describe their situation.
Because of their family backgrounds, the three of them have already joined the only "alchemy school" with a complete inheritance in the association, but their research directions are different. Dilis is good at "potions", Anthony is good at "alchemy tools and enchantments", and Alva is more at the "construction branch".
The school choice can be changed at will before becoming a full-fledged wizard, and there is no chance after becoming a full-fledged wizard......
"Then where should my wizarding path be?" After listening to Dilis's introduction, Evan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
