The study of ink and inkstone went well, but the study of papermaking did not go well. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Walr had no intention of making paper that could not be used with a quill – if a paper could only be used with a brush that was as cumbersome as it could be used and which was relatively slow to write, it would not be possible to expect it to become popular, because writing is first and foremost a tool rather than an art, and efficiency is far more important than beauty.

However, it was easier said than done to invent a paper that would allow the quill pen to write smoothly without the ink spilling on the paper.

He first pondered that maybe different woods would lead to different paper, and then chose dozens of different kinds of wood, and finally chose bamboo as the raw material. He soaked the young bamboo in water infused with the entry-level spell of "acid sputtering", and cast the spell about twice a day to soften the bamboo as quickly as possible, then removed the bamboo joints, bamboo skin and bamboo film, and chopped the remaining parts, boiled and ground them in the acid solution to obtain the bamboo pulp.

Acid Splash is the lowest level of spell and can be cast even by a beginner mage apprentice. Although the number of spells cast has increased, the total cost is much more cost-effective than using the Wood Pulp Purification Technique invented by Sui Xiong.

Later, he also specially asked an alchemist to create an oversized acid cauldron, which can greatly enhance the effect of acid splashing spells, save costs, and improve efficiency.

After each boil, the bamboo pulp should be transferred to clean water. After the power of the magic has dissipated, it is ground and boiled and ground about three times before and after, and a fairly pure bamboo pulp is obtained. The texture of this bamboo pulp is very good, there is no need to remove variegated colors at all, and the production efficiency is quite fast, which basically meets the needs of the workshop.

In order to improve the efficiency of papermaking. He specially customized a kind of net with very thin holes, which was enhanced by magic and used as a template. This cloth is mounted on a shelf. A layer of paper is taken from the well-stirred pulp.

Fish once for a shelf. Dozens of shelves are stacked on top of each other, and after sitting for a while, it is the base paper.

The workers carefully remove the base paper from the template, layer it up, press off the excess water, and then hang it up to dry, slightly flattened, and this is the paper that Walr finally gets.

This paper is white, soft and quite tough. The texture is quite good. If it is combined with a brush and ink, it can be used as a suitable writing paper. However, it still has the problem of ink leakage, and it is not suitable for quills with thinner strokes.

At this point, Wall's research hit a bottleneck, and he thought of many ways to make the paper whiter and stronger, but the problem of ink leakage was never solved.

In order to solve this problem, the senior members of the church visited the workshop in batches and participated in research. Among them, Satan came up with a solution - he applied his experience in the parchment workshop to papermaking, adding a grinding process to the process of drying the paper, and finally got a smoother paper.

This paper is combined with ink made from ground oil. Sure enough, the ink is gone.

"It's too much of a luxury to use oil to mix ink!" Wohl was not satisfied, "I'm going to make writing supplies for people who are not wealthy!"

So Satan's plan was shelved and the study continued.

This time they studied it for a long time. In the end, it was Fafnier, the lecherous monster bird.

At that time, Sui Xiong distributed the trial paper products to the employees of the church and the playground. Let's work together to see if we can come up with a solution to the problem of ink leakage. Favenier pondered for a moment with the paper. On the interview smeared with water, oil and blood, and then. It gets to the crux of the matter.

"The reason why this paper is so wet is because it is so absorbent. It said, and then took out the other half of the paper that had been torn, and this half of the paper had been magically manipulated by it, and it was slightly water-repulsive, and when it took the pen to write, there was no ink at all.

"So...... Let's try making paper that doesn't absorb much water. Inspired to continue his research, he spent a lot of time and money to get the paper he wanted.

This pulp is mixed with some colloidal materials and some specially designed alchemical potions, so that the paper produced is no longer stained, and the writing feels very similar to parchment, but it is less sturdy.

At this point, his research was completely successful and he was finally satisfied.

"So, what about the price of this paper?" asked Sui Xiong as he reported the results.

"It's a little higher because of the addition of gum and alchemy, but it's much cheaper than parchment. "It's less than a tenth of the price of parchment." ”

Sui Xiong nodded, and asked again, "So, what if you don't add gum and alchemy elixir?"

"It can be reduced to one percent. Wohl said.

Sui Xiong nodded again and said casually, "Then why don't you consider changing the writing material?"

Woll froze, looking at him suspiciously.

"For example, it's nice to write with charcoal sticks. Sui Xiong remembered what happened when he practiced sketching, and couldn't help but smile, "No one has a rule that you must use ink, paper absorbs water, then don't use water to write." ”

Walle was completely stunned, he had been drilling the horns of the bull all this time, stumbling against the absorbency of the paper, but he had not thought of a way around the problem.

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty...... Why didn't you tell me sooner!" he cried out.

Sui Xiong scratched his head embarrassedly: "I've been thinking about how to open up the world for this time, and I forgot about your side ......"

The poor legendary swordsman "Black Blade" almost spurted out a mouthful of blood.

In the end, he was reluctant to abandon the recipe he had worked so hard to design, and launched two different papers.

One kind of paper is a little thicker, and the ink is very wet, but if you write with charcoal strips, there is no problem at all.

The other paper is thin and strong, completely uninked, and the feeling of writing on it with a quill is almost exactly the same as parchment.

The former is a low-end product, the latter is a high-end product, and Walr also introduced a very low-cost charcoal bar for writing, as well as a graphite charcoal pen invented under the guidance of Sui Xiong.

Although he couldn't follow Sui Xiong's words, after gluing the extremely finely ground graphite powder with glue. It is pressed into thin round sticks and wrapped in thin strips of wood. "Pencil" made in a hexagonal shape, but in his opinion. My own research is already perfect.

Perhaps there will be further refinements to his research in the future, but the general tone should not go beyond what he has drawn.

As a person who likes to read, a person who has to hide in the library to be accompanied by books when he escapes, this achievement makes him satisfied, and he has a feeling of "no regrets in this life".

Watching the bags of paper, charcoal, charcoal, ink and various stationery loaded onto the car and transported to the branches of the "Gerten Stationery Company" in various places, the legendary swordsman who had worked hard for almost two years couldn't help but exhale deeply.

"It's so satisfying to have such an achievement!" he said to Sui Xiong and Orien, who were watching from the sidelines, but his voice was so low that it seemed to be talking to himself. "My life is complete today!"

His voice grew deeper, his vitality faded, and his eyelids slowly closed.

Orian was taken aback, thinking that the teacher was about to die, and was about to try to help, but was stopped by Sui Xiong.

"Little fool, don't make trouble!" Sui Xiong said with a smile, "Your teacher is about to break through!"

"Breakthrough, breakthrough what?" asked the usually calm and calm lady, stupidly.

"If the legendary powerhouse breaks through again, what else can it be?" Sui Xiong couldn't help but really laugh. "This guy is about to step into the realm of demigods!"

When the breath of Wohl was reduced to the extreme, like a candle in the wind, it could be extinguished at any time. A strange power burst out in the deepest part of his soul, like a bridge connecting him to the roots of this world.

Endless power flows from the source of the world. It flowed into his soul, so that it was still full of impurities. Souls that were not strong enough and not pure enough were quickly strengthened, and this strengthening was quickly fed back into his physical body. The old man's disguise quickly faded, revealing his true face.

The original tiger's back did not become thicker, but it faintly revealed a mountain-like momentum. His weather-beaten face became delicate and fairer, as if he had been several years younger. If it weren't for the scar, he would have been able to go to Hengdian to be an idol martial arts star.

However, when both the body and soul were fully strengthened, the connection between Wall's connection with the source of the world was not severed, but was accompanied by a whisper that could not be heard by mortals, strange fluctuations reverberated in his soul, indescribable songs echoed in the air around him, and colorful light fell from the sky, reflecting the surroundings like a fairyland.

Many of the gods of the worlds and kingdoms noticed the scene and turned their puzzled gazes to this side.

In a flash of light, the incarnations of the god of literature and art and the god of classics appeared at the same time, staring at the strange light that gradually floated in the air, as if it had lost its weight.

On his chest, a circle of golden light slowly emerged, and among the golden light, there were papers, books, ink, and charcoal.

"What kind of priesthood is this?" asked Sui Xiong.

"It's not culture or art. ”

"It's not a book either. ”

"So what is it?" asked Sui Xiong.

The two gods could not answer, they could feel that this was a priesthood that was closely related to them, but they were not sure what it would be.

After another moment, Wall's body shook violently, shattering into countless points of light. But then the points of light recombined and became himself.

However, at this moment, he has changed his outfit. Dressed in a scholar's robe, all kinds of transparent stationery appeared around him, and countless people reading and writing surrounded him.

In the Pantheon, there is an extra chair that is inconspicuous in terms of status, but the light is extremely eye-catching. It's just that it's still hazy, like a phantom, and it's not determined.

The god of art and the god of books shook their bodies at the same time, and said, "Knowledge!"

"Knowledge, God of Knowledge?!" Sui Xiong was taken aback, "That sounds lofty!"

Another ray of light fell, and a ball of colorful light appeared around them.

This is the Lord of Mysteries, the God of Wisdom and Magic, and the Recognized Mighty of the Gods.

"From today onwards, culture will spread widely among the people, and wisdom will be divided into 'knowledge' and 'mystery'. The Lord of Mysteries looked at Wo Er silently, then looked back at Sui Xiong.

"Knowledge and mystery are part of wisdom and cannot be separated. He said.

Sui Xiong understood what he meant.

"I thought that the god of mages would appear first, but I didn't expect the god of knowledge to take the lead. He said, "But I welcome Him." ”

Just then, Wall's eyes opened.

He glanced left and right, and understood the current situation.

Without hesitation, he—or rather, he—knelt down on one knee toward Sui Xiong.

"Great Mask of the Void, I am Vorr, the god of knowledge, your follower and faithful guardian!" (To be continued.) )
