Chapter 7: Levi's Library
"Amazing, it's really repaired!" Varus exclaimed as he slammed the steel sword twice in his hand. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"It's not just repaired, now this sword is a real steel sword."
"How did you do that?" asked Verus, looking up.
"It's just a matter of refining the carbon from the pig iron, it's not a big deal."
"Carbon?
For people who don't have alchemy knowledge, of course they can't understand some of Levi's alchemy terms, and many of the terms in the library are written in non-continental lingua franca, and Levi can't even do it with a brief explanation.
"You can just take it as my spell," Levi said, leaning against the backyard door.
"So Levi are really mages, but why didn't you see your mage badge and mage robes?"
The Mage Badge is a badge issued by the Mage Guild to registered mages to prove their identity and status, and there are five levels: Mage Apprentice, Level 3 Mage, Level 2 Mage, Level 1 Mage, Vice President, and President.
These levels only represent the status of the mage in the Mage Guild, and do not necessarily correspond to strength, but generally the mage who can get a high-level badge will not be weak.
As for the mage robes, they were just a robe and may not be as good as the linen robes worn by Levi in terms of physical defense, and those that could increase the power of spells or have other bonuses were specially made, and the people who made them were alchemists ten centuries ago, and now they are mages who have passed down the technology.
It was not difficult for Levi to make his own mage robes, as long as the mage badge could recognize the so-called fluctuations in the mages' mouths, and attach the same wavelength to the imitation badge, but this fluctuation was difficult to identify with alchemy.
For example, two years ago, in order to facilitate Levi's entry and exit from the palace, the emperor of Kaos prepared a small coat of arms for him to be a royal advisor, on which there were fluctuations for special identification.
However, that badge is of course invalid on the side of the Northville Kingdom, not only will it not serve the role of symbolizing status, but it will also cause great trouble.
Hearing Verus mention the Mage Guild, Rivi's heart moved, if he got a position as a mage apprentice in the Mage Guild in Northwell, although it would not be of great use, but he could still cover for him, and if necessary, he could go to the guild to find someone to help, which would be a good idea.
It's just that as I said earlier, as long as you are an alchemist, you must be inherently insulated from mana, and you can't use spells, so how Levi can pass the guild's test is also a problem, no matter how stupid the people of the mage guild are, they won't be stupid enough to let a person who can't even throw the fireball technique into the guild, right?
And through alchemy to create tools that can draw out mana, Levi is still researching, at least in the near future, he can't count on it, such as spell scrolls, which are special for mages, and the items that seal spells, he can't make them, and he can't take them to the guild to participate in the test openly.
Besides, the spell scroll is a sealing spell, so he has to find a mage to help him seal the spell in, but he doesn't have a mage by his side.
Verus went to old Buffon to give money after getting the repaired steel sword, and just in case, Rivey specially explained that Verus should not bring the sword over, just because he was afraid that old Buffon would see something.
When it was time for dinner, after eating the dinner prepared by Ronnie, Andrew continued to go to the town to participate in the patrol work, and Verus took the sword to practice swordsmanship, leaving only Levi and Ronnie in the house.
Levi, who could have talked to Mrs. Ronie to relieve his boredom, made other arrangements today, and as soon as dinner time passed, he hurried out of the house.
And his destination this time was very clear - that is, to find a place where no one was around, because he was going to enter the "library" later.
When it comes to the library, which can be said to have changed the fate of Rivi, of course, the fewer people who know about it, the better, even the high-level of Kaos chose to hide it and did not say anything about the existence of the library.
This time, Levi chose the place to enter the library was in a corner of the town that was inaccessible at night, standing on the dusty ground, Levi looked left and right, and after making sure that no one was following him, he quickly opened the door to enter the library - a large alchemy array composed of three medium-sized alchemy arrays overlapping.
The large alchemy array is different from the ordinary alchemy array used by Livi, only a faint light emerges in it, Livi saw the door open, so he couldn't wait to walk in, and the next moment, I saw a flash of ghostly light on the alchemy array, and entered another space with Livi.
The door of the library had to wait for a week between openings, that is, seven days, and the only "living thing" that could enter it was Rivi, let alone anyone else, and anything with the characteristics of life would be left outside the "door" the moment it passed through the large alchemy array.
The surroundings were in chaos, but Levi was not alarmed, because soon, a light appeared at the end of Levi's sight, and quickly approached him.
Squeak.
The light came to Levi's face, and what appeared in front of him was a huge mirror that glowed, and Levi, who had been to the library I don't know how many times, understood what to do now, and he put his hand on the mirror,
The ripples swept through the mirror, and by the time Levi came to his senses again, he was already standing on the marble floor of the stacks.
"It's more like home here," a faint smile appeared on his face, and Levi slowly walked through the stacks.
This is a longitudinal space, surrounded by a stack of books, which are arranged in an orderly manner along the wall in front of Levi's eyes, and continue to extend upwards to the end of the zenith, which may not be accurately defined by the word "library", but to be precise, it is a sea of books that is made up of books, and belongs only to books.
"I'm back," Livi muttered softly in the sea of books, and only here did he have "mana".
I saw an invisible big hand holding Levi's body into the air, and the books around him seemed to be waiting for the appearance of the master, all of them surrounded Rivey and kept spinning.

"On the reaction of the alchemy array when it is smelted into metal"
As soon as Levi's eyes swept away, he saw a lot of books he had read before, and looking at those books, the smile on Levi's face became more and more obvious, smiling like a child.
Levi, who had no relatives, it was these books that accompanied him to grow up, through those lonely days, gave him all the knowledge he has now, guided him to adulthood, and finally became a unique alchemist.
In Levi's mind, these books were not just dead objects bound together by covers and pages, but his teachers, his family.
And flying freely in the library is one of the unique abilities of Levi, as the owner of the library, where he can easily fly up and down, not only that, because everything in the library belongs to Livi, he can also find the reading materials he needs through a single thought, and then get the book in his hands through the ability to fly.
Descending back to the marble floor, the books returned to their places one by one, and as he walked down the sleek and clean passageway, Levi walked towards the room on the other side of the passage.
There was plenty of light in the stacks, but Levi didn't know where the light source in the stacks was, but it was a great convenience for him.
Pushing open the door to the room at the end of the passage, Levi walked to the workshop attached to the library, which contained a large number of miscellaneous products he had made through alchemy, in addition to books.
A simple set of blood transfusion equipment, a homemade pocket watch to be wound, an ignition crystal stone that has been repurposed for ignition, and a refrigeration device made of metal with ice crystals embedded in the base of the wall, etc., are all items that Levi had made from alchemy in the past, and they were piled up in most of the workshop.
"It's easy to go back to your own place," Levi crossed his waist with one hand, very satisfied.
Although I don't know who the previous owner of this library was, through the records, Levi knew that the previous owner of this library was the last witness of that era, and the only remaining alchemist ten centuries ago, and he was the forerunner of Livi's alchemy.
Putting distractions aside, because the passage of time here and the outside world is synchronized, reaching a one-to-one ratio, in other words, spending a night here is equivalent to spending a night in the outside world.
Here, in addition to the fact that books do not turn to dust due to the passage of time, Levi who stays in the library will also be hungry, thirsty, and of course, need to excrete.
"Find the right lenses first" Levi, who had to buy time to go back early tomorrow morning, buried his body in the resource pile, and selected the alchemy resources he needed.
During the few days he spent at Andrew's house, Levi noticed that Ronnie's eyes were not very good, and the fire was dim when she was doing needlework, and she often accidentally injured her fingers, so he decided to help Ronnie solve this problem when he returned to the library tonight.
In the books "Mirror Refraction" and "Light", Levi learned that the reason why people can see things around them is because the light shines on the surrounding objects, and after the objects are reflected into the human pupil, and then the tissues in the human eye are transformed into scenes.
However, neither book goes into detail about the human eye, and this part of the book Levi has only seen some similar text in other books, especially when he sees that Ronnie can no longer see the needle and thread in her hand but still takes her hand away, which proves that Ronnie will not be able to see the object when she pulls it closer.
People can see it, because of the presence of light, this thing is certain, but Levi knows that with Roni's situation, it is likely to have something to do with the aging of her eyes, because Ronie's age is really not young.
If that's the case, Levi doesn't have a good idea, and he can only let Ronnie try this by installing lenses in front of his eyes to refract light into the back of his pupil.
Therefore, Levi found four lenses with a diameter of about 5 cm that he had fired from the substance secreted from Duanmu (a wood unique to the Kaos Empire) when he was conducting research on light.
There are also differences between the two lenses, two of which are concave and convex in the middle, and the other two are slightly thicker and concave in the middle.
After thinking about it, Levi decided to make both pairs of lenses a ready-to-use product, but he guessed that the only ones that would help Ronnie would be the two lenses that had a light-concentrating effect on both sides and a thick convex middle.
