As far as Norman knew, the Templars had the idea of making a magic pool when Nikaro Norman first came into contact with alchemy, and had already done the relevant work for it, but they were stuck in the most crucial step. Later, after Abel brought in the magic alchemy, so that this most crucial step could hopefully be overcome, their idea was finally able to be put into practice.

However, it took them several days to finally come up with the initial results, which was rare for the Templars, and it was the first time that Norman had seen the Templars so ineffective, which showed how difficult the technique was.

And even if it takes so much time, there is no guarantee that it will work.

"We're just making theoretical assumptions and designs, and no one knows what it will be like in practice, maybe it's not useful at all, maybe it's even going to explode? ”

This is what Lancelot said.

The tone of the voice coming out of the barrage was the same, so Norman couldn't tell what his mood was from Lancelot's words, but he felt weak about how he listened to them.

"Crafting is also a category of art, and we came to Jebel Danner. Known as the capital of the arts, there should be no shortage of masters in crafting, so it's a good time to see if you can find some suitable materials that might increase the success of your experiment. ”

This was what Lancelot later added, and it was one of the reasons why Norman now went to Jebel Danna.

"Cecil. ”

As Norman walked, he suddenly spoke to Chen Qinghe, because Abel was there, he still used a pseudonym, "Can you ...... Give me some Quintalan?"

As soon as these words came out, Norman himself felt a little strange: nominally, he was now Chen Qinghe's prisoner. It is already strange that the captives and the kidnappers live in peace like friends on a daily basis, and that they have countless opportunities to escape but do not escape, and now that he, the captive, is even more open to ask the kidnappers for money, it is even more strange - it has always been the kidnappers who ask for money, when have you ever heard of the captives asking the kidnappers for money?

And Chen Qinghe didn't have the consciousness of a kidnapper at all, so he naturally asked, "How much do you need?"

This is exactly the way the two friends get along, even if they take the initiative to tell Abel now that Norman was captured by Chen Qinghe, I am afraid that Abel will not believe it.

After thinking about it, Norman couldn't decide how much money to prepare.

He first thought that these materials were to be used for magic alchemy, which had always been expensive when it came to mages, and then thought of the rumored story that dragons liked to collect treasures, so he simply reported a large number.

"Is 500 Quintalan okay?"

This number startled Abel.

It's not that he hasn't seen so many Kintaran, in fact, his family has accumulated more secret wealth than this, but in the past two days, he has also understood that Norman and Chen Qinghe are just friends, and they don't talk to each other a lot (some secret affairs between Norman and Chen Qinghe, such as teaching the "Funeral Heart Sutra") The like will be hypnotized by Chen Qinghe before Abel, so Abel doesn't know a lot of things between Norman and Chen Qinghe), this opening will cost 500 Quintalans, and it's too much, right?

Sure enough, Chen Qinghe frowned and hesitated.

Norman saw it in his eyes and remembered another theory about the dragons - it is said that these big bugs are misers, and sure enough.

But after hesitating for a while, Chen Qinghe agreed, "Okay." ”

As he spoke, he put his hand in his arms and took out five red gems and threw them to Norman.

"These things are worth 100 each, and there are still some of them. ”

These 5 stones were thrown over casually, and ordinary people really couldn't catch them in one go, but Norman's skills now are not as good as before, and he wore flowers in his left hand to make a shadow, and after leaving a string of afterimages in Abel's eyes, he easily grabbed these stones into his hands.

These were five rubies of the same size, crystal clear, the rich red seemed to be coming out of it, and at the slightest touch, Norman sensitively sensed the breath of magic from above.

This is a magic item.

"Thank you. ”

Norman thanked him and accepted the things honestly and unceremoniously.

The closer you get to Red Hill Island on Hogg Bridge, the more you can see the island's landscape.

Unlike the cities Norman had seen, you can see from the Hogg Bridge that Jebel Danner's urban construction is very casual: from a distance, you can see that the buildings on the shore of this lake city are not the same, and the height is also different, often it is a low bungalow here, and suddenly a small building of four or five stories rises there, the roof here is flat, the roof there is like a spire, and the colors are also varied, bold red, yellow, green, blue, etc., but gray and wood, the most common colors in other cities, are almost invisible at a glance。

The capital of art can be seen.

When I finally walked the Hogg Bridge and actually came to Jebel Danner, I saw more differences between this city and other cities.

The streets in front of me are irregular, even the main road is winding, you can't see the end at a glance, and you turn into the back of a house not far away, and the people on the street are dressed in a variety of ways, like the kind of uniform robes that you will see in many places in other cities, and the beggars on the streets in other cities are gone, replaced by artists who can be seen everywhere.

Some of these people sat on the side of the street with a drawing board and painted portraits of passers-by, some were playing a musical instrument, and a hat was turned up in front of them, which contained money thrown by those who enjoyed the performance, and some were telling interesting stories vividly, attracting a crowd around him.

As soon as I set foot here, the sound came to life, and the world seemed to come alive.

Norman walked forward with interest, looking left and right.

He had never seen such a lively scene in any other city.

He planned to watch the excitement for a while and then ask people where to buy alchemy materials, but before he could take two steps, Chen Qinghe suddenly said, "Wait." ”

Norman stood up when he heard this, looked sideways, and saw that Chen Qinghe's eyes were staring in one direction, and his brows were tightly locked.

He had never seen this kind of expression on Chen Qinghe's face, what was wrong?

He followed Chen Qinghe's gaze and saw that the place Chen Qinghe was looking at was the wall of a house on the side of the street.

In Norman's opinion, there was nothing strange about that wall, and he didn't know why Chen Qinghe had such an expression.

"I've got something to do, let's get out of here for a while,"

Chen Qinghe looked there for a while and then retracted his gaze, but his brows still didn't show, "I'll go back to the camp to find you after I'm done." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Norman's reaction, he walked straight forward, and disappeared from Norman's field of vision in a few big steps.

What's going on?

Norman was puzzled.
