Chapter Eighty-Three: The Restored 'Astrology'
Ye Qi never thought that he would repair the alchemy instrument in front of him in the most traditional wizard way - he was just a bystander at first, but after the old wizard discovered a good alchemy talent, he was immediately invited; Of course, Ye Qi has no objection to this.
Although the expert-level [Alchemy] is only good in the eyes of the old wizard, it is quite good in the eyes of other gray-robed wizards, after all, except for a few gray-robed wizards such as Van Ersi, Rosien, Stendon, Weston, and Rutz, the remaining gray-robed wizards are just a little stronger than Ye Qi.
As for those high-ranking wizards?
It is far from reaching the level of Ye Qi in front of him.
"It's really a very good talent, are the dragonborns all such talents?"
This was the admiration of several old wizards such as Stendo, especially when they were faced with the learning speed of the Topaz Dragonborn, such admiration undoubtedly turned into an exclamation - for the Topaz Dragonborn's request to learn alchemy, the wizards did not hesitate, and agreed very happily.
It's just that the learning speed of the Topaz Dragonborn is really surprising to them.
In less than a week, they completed their apprenticeship to the level of a full-fledged wizard, which is surprising wherever they are placed, and of course, it also makes them more receptive to Ye Qi's 'genius' theory.
Of course, Ye Qi, as the person concerned, knows what is going on.
However, with such a cover-up, Ye Qi of course couldn't say anything more, but he couldn't help but shrug his shoulders in the face of other people's praise.
In this regard, the wizards only took Ye Qi's modesty.
And every time that topaz dragonborn saw Ye Qi's shrug, he would snort resentfully. And then. Study alchemy in a more engaged state.
She's going to prove that she's better than the guy she hates!
That's right. This is the Topaz Dragonborn's truest thoughts—although, to others, it seems ridiculous.
Laugh at!
A crystal that was only one-third the size of the fingernail of the little finger was put into the liquid in front of him, and immediately, there was a sound of a red-hot iron thrown into the cold spring water, and Ye Qi, who was holding the long tweezers, stared at the change of the crystal in the round-necked flask in front of him without blinking.
When it shone slightly, Ye Qi raised his hand violently and took out the round-necked flask with long tweezers. put it into another long-necked flask, and after doing all this, Ye Qi let out a long breath, and subconsciously wiped the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead.
"Well done!"
The old wizard Lendl had been watching everything from the sidelines, and when he saw the whole process of Ye Qi soaking the crystal, he smiled and nodded in appreciation.
"I've failed twice, and if it happens a third time, I think I'm going to blush!"
Ye Qike did not gladly accept such appreciation. Just looked at the old wizard with a wry smile - in fact, Ye Qi was far more nervous than he appeared.
After all. When he first came into contact with this 'job', he didn't take it seriously - with his current immortal level strength, his control over his body had already reached an unimaginable level for ordinary people, so Ye Qi didn't think that he would fail after knowing the change in his reaction.
Obviously, Ye Qi had forgotten about experience.
Even if Zhilu Dao has all the reaction changes in it, when everything really happens, it will definitely not give you more advantages because of your Zhilu Dao, and even a little more nervous - Ye Qi's first failure appeared in this way, when he saw the crystal fragment light up, he subconsciously thought that it was lit up, and then, the crystal fragment was extinguished like this.
Fleeting.
Although Ye Qi swore that he could slash dozens of times in a row in this fleeting time, he couldn't let the crystal fragment in his hand enter another long-necked flask—naturally, this was a big blow to Ye Qi, especially when there was an existence like a topaz dragon descendant beside him who would not be saved by Ye Qi at all.
"Do you know how to blush? Hum! ”
With such a snort, the Topaz Dragonborn quickly put the same crystal fragment into the long-necked flask - for this kind of process that only tests the school's eyesight and hand speed, the legendary-level Topaz Dragonborn who has just stepped into the gate of alchemy is naturally the first choice; It is worth mentioning that the Topaz Dragonborn did not fail once.
"The success or failure of alchemy is not directly related to the strength of one's own strength!"
The old wizard chuckled, and then picked up the flask, which already contained no less than thirty crystal shards—to make up for the shattered orb.
The crystal fragments melted rapidly with the shaking of the old wizard, and then formed a mixture of water and oil with the liquid inside, Ye Qi watched the old wizard carefully separate the liquid inside, and did not dare to miss the slightest - although the old wizard did not explain the principle of this process in detail.
However, the hint of [+5 Alchemy] made Ye Qi understand the importance of this process.
"Pretend!"
Looking at Ye Qi's serious expression, the Topaz Dragonborn couldn't help but pout; However, her eyes didn't leave the slightest - as a dragonborn, the instinct in her veins made her watch the process without blinking, and told her how important the process was.
It takes about fifteen minutes for the whole process to be over.
In addition to the first separation, four purifications were carried out afterwards – with the assistance of Standon and Weston.
And when everything was done, a 30-milliliter test tube filled with liquid appeared in the field of vision of the people around him-
"Done?"
Peloz, who was also added as a special case, asked.
"Well, it's basically done, and then it's time for the most remedial restoration!"
Velce replied to his disciple's words, and took out the glass ball inlaid with dragon scales, which the wizards had deliberated for a long time before finally deciding to stay. Instead of stripping; After all. This particular alchemy instrument as a whole is already very fragile. It's hard to withstand a formal divestiture.
If it really caused a bigger shatter because of stripping, even with the presence of the great wizard of Lendl, I am afraid it will be difficult to repair.
"Put it here!"
The old wizard said to his disciple, and Velce immediately placed the glass ball inlaid with dragon scales on a wooden tray in the center of the experimental table, and then walked aside with bated breath; In fact, the people around him, the Dragonborn, after seeing the old wizard's movements. I didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere, so I watched it quietly.
Wisps of translucent, shimmering starlight liquid floated out of thin air, flying towards the glass ball inlaid with dragon scales, as if it was entrusted by a pair of invisible hands to make up for the cracks in the period.
The magical means, to put it bluntly, are almost trick-level spells [Wizard's Hand].
It's just that such a trick in the hands of this old wizard exerts a sigh that Ye Qi forgets to sigh - although he has the same spell, he wants to be as delicate as the old wizard. Ye Qi asked himself absolutely not to do it, especially the last. The kind of manipulation that turned one into ten and repaired inside and outside at the same time made Ye Qi completely give up the idea of 'comparing' with the old wizard in front of him.
Perhaps, his strength is much stronger than the old wizard in front of him.
In a real battle, a single knife can kill the old wizard in front of him, but compared with the other party, alchemy and other skills are like him slashing the other party, and it is completely the end of being killed in seconds.
Suddenly, Ye Qi took a deep breath, and once again alerted himself in his heart - your talent is just ordinary, your strength is just from the initial luck, and you can't get carried away!
After repeating his warnings several times in a row, Ye Qi calmed down everything in his heart.
Being admired as a genius, although Ye Qi expressed his modesty, in essence, he still had a little joy in his heart.
This is not arrogance, it is just human nature, or the inferiority of human beings themselves.
As a human with the blood of the dragon clan, Ye Qi is no exception, and it is natural for him to feel happy to be praised by others; If you have to be insulted by others to be happy, it is definitely a treatment that only some special lovers can enjoy; It's just that in this glimmer of joy, it is obvious that Ye Qi has forgotten something.
Fortunately, seeing the old wizard's manipulation, Ye Qi remembered the forgotten point -
It's been so smooth lately that I've got carried away!
I need to be vigilant at all times, after all, now I only have the capital to resist, not the overall situation!
The self-talk in his heart made Ye Qi return to his usual true state again, and he looked at the old wizard who was completing the last step, a little less perfunctory, and a little more serious in the real sense.
Such a change, the wizards did not notice, they were all concentrating.
Only, while looking at the restoration experiment that was about to be completed, and staring at Ye Qi on the other hand, the Topaz Dragonborn saw it.
"Pretending to be ......"
The topaz dragon subconsciously wanted to sarcastically say a word to Ye Qi as before, but seeing Ye Qi's serious appearance in the real sense, the last word was not said in the end; He just gritted his teeth and watched the old wizard's movements with a more serious expression than Ye Qi.
"That's it!"
As the old wizard said such words, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, and Velce walked to the side of the old wizard and supported the old wizard, while Peloz came over with a bottle of blue-white potion - a slightly pale face and an unstable figure quickly recovered under the effect of this potion.
"Bring me a pot of honey tea, it's definitely much stronger than the potion!"
The old wizard sighed as he looked at the empty potion bottle.
"If it really works, I'll definitely get it for you!"
Verse replied with the same seriousness as ever, which made the old wizard's sigh more and more helpless, and his eyes looked at Peloz and Ye Qi, the former was the old wizard's apprentice, and in the face of his teacher's stern gaze, he quickly fell into defeat.
As for Ye Qi?
He shrugged his shoulders and said that he couldn't help himself.
After all, the old wizard's body, he knows the truth - although sweets are beautiful and unforgettable, life is just as important.
"A bunch of guts!"
The old wizard snorted and stood up, took out his long pipe, and after reaching out to light it, he spat out a thick smoke at his disciple, and in this smoke, Velis was like a statue, motionless, not even blinking his eyes; It's just that the tip of his nose is stirring again.
"Teacher, there's honey in it, I need to serve you another tobacco!"
The old wizard shouted angrily at Velce's words, and then, holding his pipe, rushed outside, and at the same time turned back and said: "Don't think about it, I have been deprived of a lot of fun, if you deprive me of pleasure again, I will die now, do you believe it or not?" ”
……
The old wizard finally kept his pipe and the few shreds of tobacco, but the beating beard showed that the old wizard was in a bad mood at the moment.
Similarly, because of such a bad mood, the next restoration work was completely handed over to Van Ersi and others.
In fact, the wizards were willing to do this, they all knew the condition of the old wizard, and if they could rest more, no one would want to disturb the rest of the elder.
It's just that none of them have the ability to repair the core part before-
"You've done well enough!"
Patting Velce vigorously on the shoulder, Master Standon said this, and the people around him, including Ye Qi and Topaz Dragonborn, nodded and comforted Velce, who had a gloomy face after leaving the old wizard's room.
"I just hated myself for being careless!"
It was clear that the words of the crowd did not have any real effect, and Velce still felt uncomfortable that he could not share the worries of his teacher, and equally uncomfortable was Peloz, the slightly dark face of the mixed-race boy, with the sorrow that a young man could not appear, which made it clear at a glance.
"Such a heavy atmosphere...... We're not at the final pinch, are we? Ye Qi glanced at the wizards in front of him, he spread his hands and said, "It is not that there are items that do not harm others and prolong their lives...... Even if Lorant doesn't have it, but the other planes, the half-planes, aren't they? The astral boundary is so big, anything can happen! ”
There are many ways and methods to extend lifespan, but the persistence of the old wizard has made this method rarer.
However, it is precisely because of this persistence that the old wizard seems more and more respectable, and in this regard, Ye Qi does not mind helping the old wizard after discovering such a life-extending item again.
Therefore, looking at the wizards who raised their heads, Ye Qi continued with a smile: "Of course, the premise is that we must quickly repair the 'astrology' and make it work normally!" I think...... That's not a difficult task for you, is it? ”
