"In the year 7098 of the continental calendar, the frost month, three days.
The Lionheart Emperor's people came to the door again, asking me to help the Lionheart Emperor City make magic cannons, and said that as an alchemy master, the silver spider Karis should contribute his own strength to the human race.
Hmph, Alchemy Master, Silver Spider, even if you have eight arms, you can't save Kelly!
Contribute to humanity!?When Galen City was breached by giants, why didn't anyone save my poor Kelly!?I made countless weapons for humanity and saved countless lives, why didn't anyone save my Kelly?!
And I'm ...... What was I doing? What the hell was I still making!
I'm leaving Lionheart's Imperial City, and from now on there will be no more Silver Spider Karis, only Mind Burner Karis.
A large number of magic crystals are needed as experimental materials for power sources, and Kelly's crystal coffin also needs magic crystals to maintain, and a magic crystal vein must be found that has not been controlled by the three imperial cities.
The craft of the wrist joint has matured, and the two wrists with the alchemy circle attached to it have been successfully made, and the next step is to start making the elbow joint.
Kelly, wait for me......"
......
"In the year 7099 of the continental calendar, the eighth day of the leaf month.
My judgment of the direction of the veins is correct, there are indeed large magic crystal veins in the giant's territory, and it is likely that they are deep underground under several volcanoes.
A stone with a filigree of fire crystals has been found.
After the wrist joint is connected to the alchemy circle of the elbow joint, there is an energy conflict and an explosion.
There is a problem with the previous way of thinking, and it is necessary to overturn it all and start over again, looking for the tipping point of energy balance.
Balanced, balanced!
Good night, Kelly. ”
......
"In the year 7102 of the continental calendar, the Thermidor Moon, the 23rd.
Encounter the Firehammer dwarves in an underground cavern, but they are being besieged by hundreds of lava giants and dozens of black iron giants.
Kill the giants and rescue the poor Firehammer dwarves.
They actually took my burning spirit as a gift from the god of fire, thinking that I was the messenger of the god of fire, haha.
If there really is a god in this world, save my Kelly...... No, just bless me to succeed.
Lead the dwarves to find a geode formed by the magic crystal veins under the volcano, a natural paradise. The dwarves are ready to live here, and they are begging me to stay.
It's a great place to experiment, so I'll stay here. ”
......
"I don't know exactly what the day is.
The condition of the body is constantly deteriorating, time, time, you hateful fellow!
God the Father, God of Fire, God of Life, and other gods, O gods, if you really exist, pray to you, let me succeed, I have already ignited my heart, is it not pious enough?
Alchemy Doll No. 1 has been successfully produced, but the depiction of the miniature circle is too complicated, and the energy consumption is too huge, and it can only last five minutes of activity.
Oh my God, just the movement of the body is so complex, can I do the nerve connection of the brain?
I need time!"
......
"My eyes are already a little hard to see.
I used the salamander's brain, made wires of Mithril and Iron Essence for nerve connection, and Fire Crystal as an energy source.
Success makes the puppet show signs of activity, but it's a completely chaotic action, like a knee-jerk twitch......
The salamander's brain lasted only ten breaths before it was roasted dry by the energy of the magic crystal.
The brain is just too complicated......"
......
"Nearly a hundred failures in a row.
What is the human mind? How are the nerves of the brain connected? Does the soul really exist? I suddenly found that what I had touched seemed to be a forbidden area for the gods, and mortals may never really understand.
Kelly, if there was another world, would you miss me there?"
......
"Kelly, I still failed in the end, I'm sorry, I didn't fulfill my promise.
I really don't want to leave this world...... Although these dwarves of the Fire Hammer Clan escaped a catastrophe, this volcanic area is not stable, and it may erupt in a few hundred years, so I wonder if they will be able to escape again......
Speaking of which, what a group of smart and loyal guys......
In the future, someone may be able to see my records, and those who come after, no matter what race or temperament you are, take my life's work away, and if you can, I hope you will continue my research and see if the wisdom of the mortal world can challenge the gods.
Kylie, I hope to be able to meet you in another world.
Kiss you ......"
......
With a long sigh of relief, he rolled the heavy sheepskin in his hand and closed it, Li Yunfei's heart was deeply shocked.
This parchment scroll has thousands of pages, and it also uses an alchemical circle on it, so although it looks like only one or two hundred pages, when opened, there is a lot of content inside.
It turns out that this is the origin of the previous generation of Vulcan messengers!
From Lionheart Imperial City, one of the three Golden Imperial Cities, an alchemy master and a silver swordsman, a man named Karis!
The reason why he came here to save the firehammer dwarves can actually be regarded as a coincidence.
And what Karis wanted to do all his life, exhausting his mind and life, is to resurrect his lover Kelly!
This parchment scroll can be said to be a record of Karis's work, or it can be said to be his journal. From the contents of this parchment scroll, you can see how deep Karis's love for Kelly is. All his life, he worked hard to resurrect his lover until he died.
Looking up at the gentle skeleton in front of him, Li Yunfei couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is really a person with deep affection.
Moreover, he is indeed a genius of alchemy.
You must know that in this world, the level of human civilization is still at the level of the European Middle Ages in the previous life, and even if there is a branch of alchemy, it is mostly used for war, which can be said to be a backward and barbaric world.
What Karis did was completely an act that transcended this era. Even in Li Yunfei's previous life, on Earth, where scientific and technological civilization had reached such a highly developed level, it was still impossible to connect a brain to a mechanical body for the continuation of life.
Therefore, what Karis has done does does not seem to be possible at the moment. And he himself should have realized this in his heart, but he still clinged to it, and finally exhausted his life and died in disappointment......
Maybe at the last moment, his heart was not all disappointed. After all, in this life, even if he didn't resurrect Kelly, his lover has always lived in his heart.
Li Yunfei stood up and stretched. He had been caught up in the parchment since he opened it, and he didn't know how long it had been, but he was a little hungry at this time.
Turning his head to look, he saw that Lao Boll was still standing there, and when he saw Li Yunfei getting up, he immediately asked in an expectant voice: "Lord Divine Envoy, you should understand all this, this parchment scroll is the same as the bones of the first Divine Envoy and the Heavenly Maiden, it is a sacred relic of our clan, and you are the first person to read this holy relic in its entirety." ”
Hearing this, Li Yunfei couldn't help but be surprised: "Haven't you seen it?" "Such an important thing, even if it is a holy thing, you should take a look."
Old Pol laughed and said in a slightly proud tone: "The gods don't know that all the history and legends, techniques and comprehensions of our dwarven clan are compiled into battle songs and passed down by word of mouth, so we don't need words. ”
Li Yunfei couldn't help but realize that these dwarves were illiterate!
Although this is your tradition, you don't look very proud if you are illiterate!
After pondering for a moment, Li Yunfei said, "So, now the Fire Hammer Clan has been completely enclosed in this cave and can't leave?"
Although there was only a faint mention of it in Karis's record, Li Yunfei had already guessed that the predicament faced by the Fire Hammer clan should be related to the environment of this cave!
When Karis led these firehammer dwarves here, there may have been an exit to the outside world throughout the cave, but the surrounding rock walls are all high-purity metal minerals, and the location is next to the volcano, there are often geological changes, and after a long time, this place is completely sealed.
It's become a death cage that can't be left out!
