With the popularization and use of the improved version of the steam engine, the share belonging to Mel was also sent by the Bruce Association, and it was directly transferred to Mel's mage badge in the form of points. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because it was only the first batch, the number of steam engines produced was not very large, but it was just like this, and it was a number that ordinary people would not dare to think of.

A full 8,000 points.

Maier had done the calculations before, but he was not too surprised, after all, the proportion of the share had been negotiated, and a little calculation would be able to tell.

But despite this, when he saw the number of eight thousand, Maier was still a little excited.

Since arriving on the eastern side of the Red Sea, Maier has generally earned points in two ways, first, for the manuscript of novels, and secondly, for the sale of some magical materials.

The points rewarded in both ways are not small, and they are even more effective when they are accumulated, but Mel also consumes points very quickly, and the magic alone costs most of them.

This is by far the largest number of Mage Mel's badges.

Then Maier wondered what to do with the money.

Mel doesn't have a penchant for accumulating points, so he doesn't think that the more points in the Mage Badge, the better.

As a mage, Maier always believed that the magic level was the most important thing, and the points in the mage badge were just proof of the wealth.

But only when you convert this wealth into something useful for yourself can it be considered truly valuable.

Several thoughts crossed Myer's mind.

First, buy potions and magic materials to speed up your magic practice, and become a third-level magician as soon as possible, and then become an intermediate magician.

Rely on a method called drug abuse to advance.

But after thinking about it, Maier chose to give up.

Potions are not a panacea, any potion has certain side effects, once or twice has no effect, but the more times it occurs, it will have an effect on the magician.

After all, not all elixirs are like awakening elixirs, and as an aid to meditation, awakening elixirs are more accurate than food.

For magicians, it's like a staple food for ordinary people.

Moreover, taking potions for a long time can easily cause the foundation of the magician to be unstable, that is, the control of magic power is not enough.

This kind of disadvantage is not obvious in normal times, because the magic power will not decrease, and the magic power used will not be less, but in some cases, it can affect the overall situation.

For example, when fighting, there is a relatively high chance that the spell will fail and the magic will backfire.

There is also the danger of magic backlash when you advance.

And this risk is fatal.

Second, build your own alchemy laboratory.

Maier has the experience of his previous life, and many of the laws of physics, chemistry, and biology in his previous life are applicable in this world, so it is very helpful for Maier to become a real alchemist.

There are many benefits to becoming an alchemist.

For example, because of the variety of ways to apply, Mel's control of magic can be strengthened, and the control of magic power is enhanced, which is equivalent to enhancing the combat strength.

In addition, the alchemy items produced can also bring a huge income to Myr.

Magicians have never been a frugal profession, and if you want to be a successful magician, money is essential, and you have enough money to get the magic materials you need.

Furthermore, after becoming an intermediate magician, you need to understand the so-called truth of the world, so it is only fitting to conduct these alchemical experiments.

Maier was a little uncertain about this last point, after all, Maier had already learned a lot about the understanding of truth through the experience of his previous life.

If those were counted, then Maier would not have taken any action, and it should have been unimpeded to be promoted to a high-level mage, so there would be no need for so many curves.

But if it doesn't, then what?

Mel couldn't figure it out.

However, this did not stop Maier from the idea of building an alchemical laboratory.

Now that the decision has been made, it is time to plan, the first thing to determine is the location, the tower is naturally the best, but the price of the tower's laboratory is too much for Mel's budget.

Eight thousand points is very good in the eyes of civilians, but for high-level magicians, it is not worth mentioning.

Many high-end materials are often more than that.

Meier still placed the location of the laboratory in Xicheng District, in a completely opposite direction to the residential area, where there is quite a lot of laboratory land.

Unlike the towers, most of the laboratories here are single-minded, not very tall and not very large, not much like the small courtyard where Mel lives.

Half above ground and half underground, the house was designed and built by the Council of Magic, ensuring as much safety as possible for the laboratory.

Safety is divided into two aspects, first, not to let outsiders peep, and second, not to let the accident inside affect the outside world.

The first point is easy to understand, that is, the confidentiality and protection of the laboratory are well done, and it is difficult for outsiders to enter without the permission of the laboratory owner, which ensures the alchemist's secrets.

The second point is that Maier has also seen it.

Many alchemy experiments are risky, and explosions and explosions are commonplace, and many times the scale and power of explosions are not small.

In order to protect the safety of innocent people, these laboratories do a good job of preventing the spread of accidents.

Under normal circumstances, as long as it is not an experiment that is too far out of scope, it will not affect other laboratories, and the alchemist will not choose this place for an experiment that can achieve that effect.

After all, compared to the tower, the laboratory here still looks very rudimentary.

After a while, the leader stopped and said, "These are the laboratories that have not been sold yet, and the laboratories are similar except for some differences in location. ”

Maier looked at it and found that the architectural style was exactly the same, even the old and the new.

"Can I go in and have a look?"

The leader nodded and said, "Please." ”

Mel went in.

The courtyard is very small, probably because of the laboratory, and there is no need for a courtyard, so this is omitted as much as possible in order to leave as much space for the laboratory as possible.

Entering the laboratory, the first floor, is a straight hallway, lined with doors, behind the door is a room, and at the end of the hallway, there is something like a hall, and there are stairs to go up to the second floor.

Next to it is a side-opening passage that leads to the basement. (To be continued.) )
