When I walked out of the dimensional gate, there was a gray void in front of me. There is no way forward, no regression, it is like being suspended in another strange universe. Only a huge polyhedron rested overhead, emitting a colorful light, becoming a source of light.

And the only thing that makes people happy is that the terrifyingly powerful spatial power that was absorbed before disappeared in this world. It was as if the heavy shackles on his body had suddenly been removed, giving people the illusion of being so light that they were almost fluttering.

As Moriarty stood still in the void, the polyhedron showed a leaping brilliance that suddenly turned around, connecting into pillars of light that swept over the intruder's body. Immediately, Moriarty felt as if he had suddenly become naked, and there was no secret to speak of. Only the crystal book in the soul was crystal dotted, so that the colorful beam of light did not enter.

At the same time, illuminated by polyhedra, all the alchemical items that Moriarty carried with him seemed to have lost their effect. Not only can the space pocket no longer be opened, but even all magical equipment, including the "Zodiac Star Palace", is neutralized, and even treasures such as "Serena's Secret Eye" or "Basil Lei's Transformation Feather" have been forcibly blocked, so that Moriarty can't help but reveal the appearance of the original human race.

Seeing this, Moriarty was shocked at first, and then calmed down and thought thoughtfully.

After a moment, the dazzling beams of light faded, and the void was gray again. But at the same time, the polyhedron slowly descended from above, reaching the intruder. And it was only then that Moriarty finally discovered that the polyhedron was so huge, almost the size of a real-world castle. Compared to it, I am very small. If this is also an enchanted work, it is the largest one Moriarty has ever seen, even larger than the Pyramid of the Mysteries. Its size alone can go down in history. Let countless alchemists bow and worship.

However, a work of this magnitude has not left a single word in any magical text, and it seems to be a secret masterpiece of Márquez.

As Moriarty was carefully observing the huge object in front of him, suddenly, another piece of light shot out from the already calm polyhedron, condensing one hexagonal cursor after another in front of him. At first glance, it looks like a beehive spread out. But the number of cursors is so large that at least thousands of them can be swept at a glance. And inside each hexagonal cursor, there is a physical image of a certain substance embedded in it. Whether it is metal, or mineral, or magic core, or rare fruit, all of which are precious raw materials that can be used for all kinds of alchemy. There are even many things in which Moriarty has only seen drawings and descriptions in books before, and has not touched the real thing.

At the same time as the six-sided cursor fell, a cold voice also sounded in Moriarty's ears: "Select three raw materials and make an enchanted prop within an hour." Theme: The 'Future' of Enchanters. ”

Enchanter's... Future?

Hear such a question. Moriarty was stunned for a moment, her brows tightened.

I have to say that this is a very broad and very difficult question to answer. It seems that there are no obvious restrictions or shackles, but it directly points to the heart of the alchemist, which belongs to the question of "punishing the heart", and tests the height of concept and thinking.

At the same time, the Hex Emperor generously promised to choose any three materials. In other words, any of the thousands of "six-sided cursors" can be selected by the examinee. Even some rare materials are not spared. But alas, the cold voice set a time limit for another hour. Immediately reduce the range of actual options to the extreme. This is because the more precious the raw material, the longer the processing time and the more cumbersome the process. Not to mention just an hour. If it is a conventional process, it is almost not enough to make the most ordinary "+1" magic short sword, not to mention others. Therefore, the "promise to choose three materials at will" is more like a blank check, even if Márquez is willing to give it. The examinee actually can't accept it.

Fifty-nine minutes to go...

Moriarty's gaze scanned over the numerous hexagonal cursors. And as he looked, those cursors seemed to sense, and they would suddenly zoom in or out. And once it fixes its gaze, the cursor that is being watched will immediately turn into reality, and the image of the material in it will be transformed into the real object at once.

Future?

With a wandering line of sight. Moriarty's mind was racing as well.

In fact, he has not thought about such a problem in the past. Because if you want to go into detail about anything, you will eventually return to a similar source, that is, "what" and "why". Only by answering these two questions can we see things as they really are and not be confused by appearances. Otherwise, if the mind is inconclusive, it is just duckweed that drifts with the flow. No matter how high the skill is, but a craftsman, he will never become a teacher.

Therefore, under the premise of an extremely tight time limit, Moriarty just recalled and sorted out his past thoughts, and made a plan, and it was also an alchemy plan he had made before. It's just that the day is limited to material and environmental issues, and it can't be operated, but now is the right time.

Then, I saw Moriarty suddenly raise his hand, pointing in three directions, left, up, and right.

Immediately, three "six-sided cursors" shone brightly, and then three pieces of material flew out of them and came to the front of the examinee, floating and motionless. At the same time, thousands of other cursors dimmed and vanished.

Looking at the three materials in front of him, Moriarty's expression was calm, almost solemn. Because the three raw materials he selected are all rare and abnormal, and they are rare to see in the outside world.

They are: "Vitality Spring", "Dawn Crystal", and "Moonwell Soil".

Vitality spring water, taken from the depths of the ocean of fresh water springs, lively nature, can nourish all things, and the quality is very large, a small drop is nearly a kilogram, only the mermaids living in the ocean can collect and refine.

Dawn crystal, a special crystal condensed in the sky, from appearance to disappearance is often only a blink of an eye, and only when the dawn first appears, it is extremely rare, and the crystal can hold all things, is an excellent alchemy carrier.

The soil of the moon well, the special soil left at the bottom of the well after the "moon well" dried up, has a magical and very nourishing effect on plants, and contains a certain power of moonlight, which can attract moonlight to infuse, but since the "mysterious garden" disappeared, the "moon well" has gradually disappeared in the dust of history.

There is no doubt that whether it is a spring of vitality or a dawn crystal, it is a rare treasure, and it is very rare; But in comparison, it is still the soil of the moon well that is more precious, and it may even be the only one left in the world now.

After selecting these three materials, Moriarty didn't have time to sigh more, and immediately began to refine them.

And the alchemy methods it adopts seem to be extremely simple:

The first was the Aurora Crystal, the rough of which was the size of a pinky finger, but Moriarty took the trouble to cut it into eighty-one pieces of various shapes and sizes. The largest of them is only a few millimeters, and the smallest is as small as a needle tip.

Originally, such a subtle segmentation had to be done slowly with the use of special tools in a complete chamber. But now in a strange void, and only for an hour, Moriarty uses the most primitive "freehand" method to divide the Dawn Crystal, which is similar to a diamond.

And it is said to be "bare hands", but it is a special pair of hands. At some point, a thin layer of black flame had floated in Moriarty's palm, blazing with an indescribable sharpness. Therefore, when the fingertips wrapped around the black flame slashed across the dawn crystal again and again, the originally hard and abnormally hard crystal also opened silently.

It took about a quarter of an hour for the Dawn Crystal to be processed.

Then, Moriarty began to pour the water of the spring of life and the soil of the moon well, either alone or in a mixture, into the small crystals of dawn. In particular, the grains of spring water and well soil are mixed with many different settings, each with its own precise proportion, and Moriarty is also very careful in the absence of a precision measuring instrument.

After about half an hour, the filling is complete.

And there are only ten minutes left.

At this time, Moriarty took a deep breath and slowly stretched out the middle finger of his left hand, and gently stroked it with his right hand.

As a result, dark gold slowly appeared on the originally slender and white fingers, forming a vein-like pattern. At the same time, the epidermis of the fingers also begins to become rough and tough, like vines.

Then, Moriarty suddenly stretched out his right index finger again, and the black flames on his fingertips swirled again.

Then, the right finger gently slices across the surface of the middle finger of the left hand, as if carving, and the changed middle finger is thinly sliced, cutting out one section and notch after another. Some of the wounds were even as deep as the bones. However, the amazing thing is that no matter how the middle finger of the left hand is "tortured", no blood has ever flowed.

It took about five minutes for Moriarty to complete the "finger carving". Looking at the middle finger of his left hand, it is already shaped like a blooming flower, unrecognizable.

At this moment, Moriarty extinguished the black flame, and then embedded the eighty-one filled dawn crystals into the flesh of his middle finger one by one like jewel settings.

With the inclusion of the Dawning Crystal, the wounds here and there began to heal on their own, wrapping the grains. Moreover, in the flesh and blood of the middle finger, there is a trace of dark golden thin wire connecting many grains, making it a complex and unified three-dimensional structure, and it is also integrated with the middle finger itself.

Finally, when the countdown of the polyhedron sounded, the middle finger of Moriarty's left hand was restored to its original state. And except for a faint layer of crystal luster on the finger body, nothing else seems to be different.

"Submit your enchanted item."

The cold voice sounded again, and another multicolored beam of light shone down from the polyhedron, completely enveloping the examinee.

In response, Moriarty slowly stretched out the middle finger of his left hand and pointed at the polyhedron from afar: "My work: 'Aquarius's healing middle finger'!" (To be continued......)
