Next to the forest, Stephen Chow replenished a bit of timber and hunted a wild deer. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

After expanding the area of the underground base again, he picked up an iron pickaxe and dug towards the location of the silver mine. He already had a lot of iron ore hoarded, and he needed a little silver to complete his first alchemy nick.

In order to assist in their work, the alchemists of the Arcane Empire spent hundreds of years refining the [Mage's Hand], which was originally a level 0 auxiliary trick that could pick up objects weighing around 5-10 pounds. Alchemists use secret notches to imprint it into their bodies, strengthening them into further [Alchemy Hands]. The Alchemy Hand can be upgraded three times with the current notching technology, the first time requires a large amount of silver, and after completion, it is called [Alchemy Hand Type I] or [Silver Hand], and the second upgrade requires a large amount of gold, and after completion, it is called [Alchemy Hand Type II] or [Golden Hand]. The last upgrade can only be after advancing to the legendary realm, this time not only needs to use rare materials such as diamond, mythril, arcane dust, astral sand, etc., but also needs to be engraved with one hundred and twenty-seven alchemy nicks, and the final alchemy hand will greatly improve the sensitivity of the fingers, close to the limit of human beings.

The alchemy hand of this level is called the [Hand of God], and it is also called the [Female Killer] by some unscrupulous wizards.

Stephen Zhou dug all the way down the mine road, and in order to avoid attracting the attention of others, he chose to go about fifty meters down. Windy City is rich in mineral resources, and although it is depleted by mining, there are still many veins hidden deep underground. It took Stephen Chow a whole day to dig underneath the silver mines, but he was disappointed that the silver mines were very low, and some of them were almost worthless to mine. This forced him to cautiously approach the main vein, where he could already faintly hear the sounds of mining above.

He pulled out an alchemy torch and plugged it in, then counted the time and waited until it was dark.

Soon, the miners left the pit after dark, and Stephen Chow continued to dig up with an iron pickaxe. Sure enough, he soon found a silver-gold mine, which contained about 12% silver.

- "Fifteen feet of silence!"

In order to avoid alarming the guards of the silver mine, Stephen Chow had to cast a small spell on himself.

Then he didn't have any worries, picked up the iron pickaxe and dug up like crazy, his way of mining was extremely domineering, relying on the ability to change the form of matter, basically knocking it down to a cubic meter of ore. The mineral-rich main veins have basically been surveyed, and Stephen Zhou didn't bother to prospect for his own ore and dug down the veins they found. The content of these silver and gold mines is not bad, the main body is silver with a small amount of gold, as Stephen Zhou mined a unit of ore, there is a trace of condensed elemental power into his body, mining silver ore and gold ore absorb much more elemental power than iron ore, but after a while, he felt that he was about to break through to level 4 alchemist.

One night was not a long time.

After Stephen Zhou secretly dug up a silver-gold mine of nearly three hundred units, it was almost dawn outside.

Now the whole mine is in a mess, basically the valuable silver and gold mines have been dug out by him, and all that is left are some waste mines with low mineral content and no mining and refining value. The main veins on the surface have basically been hollowed out by him, and it will take a lot of time for the deep minerals to be explored even if he comes to prospect. In one night, he single-handedly hollowed out the silver vein he had found in the mine, which would have to go deeper if he wanted to continue mining. Because of the relatively large movement, the nobles of Windbreaker City would definitely be aware of it, and Stephen Zhou had to arrange some back-up before leaving.

- "Change the substance!"

Stephen Chow left a magic mark on the walls of the mine, and then placed a trigger-type arcane sigil.

When he returned to the underground passage and entered a safe distance, he immediately activated the rune in his palm. Then a loud rumbling sound came from behind, and when the overseer of the silver mine was preparing for work early in the morning, the mine in front of him collapsed in front of him!

A group of people looked at the collapsed mine in amazement, wondering why it had collapsed early this morning, which was fine yesterday.

Destroy the corpse.

By the time the aborigines have cleared up the landslides, I'm afraid Stephen will have left here a long time ago.

Stephen Chow, who had returned to the underground base, was in a very happy mood, and after sorting out last night's harvest, he immediately began refining minerals.

As the alchemist's ability gradually recovered, the alchemy nicks he could use gradually increased, but after all, he used an ordinary furnace made with his bare hands, and the speed of refining gold and silver was not so fast. After spending half a day, Stephen Chow finally refined fifty pounds of silver and about two pounds of gold.

"We must find a way to build a large steel furnace!"

Stephen looked at the furnace that he had brought out with his bare hands in front of him, and couldn't help but pout, "This thing is just too inefficient. Even using enchantments is a waste. ”

Neat pieces of silver ingots were placed on the workbench.

Stephen Zhou pulled out his sword and cut a small piece of gold, and then a white light appeared in his palm, and the gold in his hand gradually turned into a golden liquid.

- "Psionic Fire!"

Stephen Zhou bit his fingertip at the center of his eyebrows, and a drop of blood with a trace of gold was suspended in the center of his eyebrows, and with the convergence of spiritual power, a dark blue flame appeared, like a spark blooming in the void. At this moment, Stephen Zhou's face was pale, and he carefully injected the flame into the alchemy circle on the workbench, and a trace of dark blue light appeared, and the silver placed in the center immediately began to melt as the alchemy mark was activated.

"Sure enough, the current strength is still very reluctant to use the fire of spiritual energy!

Psionic Fire was originally born from a fierce astral race, who possessed a very high-end forging process and forged bizarre silver-bladed weapons. The Grand Arcanists learned this technique and mastered the method of activating psionic fire.

Pieces of silver melt into water.

The dark blue flame continued to jump, the silver water in the center of the alchemy circle gradually decreased and turned into a thick substance like mercury, Stephen Zhou took a deep breath, and then stretched his hands directly into it, a little bit of brilliant silver-white brilliance appeared, and dense alchemy marks gradually appeared on Stephen Zhou's hands, and the strange inverted triangle alchemy circle had already been engraved on the back of his hand, and with the contact with the mercury-like substance, a trace of magic power poured into his hands, and the mercury substance in the alchemy circle gradually decreased, and the dark blue flame jumped in Stephen Zhou's palm, and finally the entire alchemy circle was only a little residue, while Stephen Zhou's palm had an extra hint of silver-white luster, and the eighteen alchemy nicks gradually melted into the flesh and finally completely disappeared on the back of the hand.

"It worked. ”

Stephen Zhou moved his fingers, and a gold coin swirled across his fingertips, and the dexterity of his fingers was nearly doubled compared to before.
