Chapter 10: Refining Fire Demon Battle Armor (I)

After chatting with Ning Meng for a while, Merge returned to the alchemy hut.

Locking the door, Merge put the materials handed over by Ning Meng to the side of the workbench, and checked the materials and parts for refining the Fire Demon Battle Armor again before revealing a satisfied smile.

The alchemy materials that Ning Meng took out this time were not all raw materials, and a large part of them were battle armor parts that had already been processed by the materials. This saves Merge a lot of time to polish materials, and the time for refining the Fire Demon Battle Armor can be compressed into one day as much as possible.

It seems that after Merge left the barracks this morning, except for some materials that Ning Meng was not worried about being handled by other alchemists, the rest of the materials had been processed by other alchemists. Of course, judging by the traces of material handling, Merge could see that there were a lot of materials that had been processed, all taken from the inventory of border guards.

After getting the news that the beast tide was coming, the head of the Thai Tiger also began to take action, but the measures taken by the head of the Thai Tiger were all unnoticeable means. After all, announcing the news of the coming beast tide too early will not only greatly reduce the strength and morale, but also some merchants and nobles who are greedy for life and afraid of death will also leave Blue Ear City ahead of schedule, causing riots.

Taihu can be the commander of the army in the border city, and the means and ideas will not be too simple. If the news is not announced early, and even the time for the news to be reported is in place, it can make some unwitting merchant nobles forced to tie up on the same front as Blue Ear City.

If the news of the coming of the beast tide is announced too early, these people who are greedy for life and afraid of death will not only not contribute money or effort, but will also take away a batch of supplies. In this case, it will have an impact on the battle situation in Blue Ear City, and of course Taihu will not allow such a thing to happen.

And Merge seized on the different ideas between the noble merchant and the tiger, and sold the news to get a large amount of gold. Of course, Merge was not afraid that after the Assassins Association sold the news to some nobles and merchants, these people would leave Blue Ear City early, because Taihu immediately took measures secretly after receiving the news.

Taihu didn't make any big moves on the surface, and he didn't strengthen his patrols, but secretly raised the strength of the soldiers patrolling Blue Ear City by a level. In this way, while strengthening the prevention of the arrival of the beast tide, it also secretly strengthened the restrictions on the movement of nobles and merchants.

Merger thought to himself that this was a good thing, and while announcing the news too early would cause panic, the necessary preparations and precautions should be laid out as soon as possible.

The more well prepared, the fewer troops will be lost, which means that more people will survive in the beast tide.

Putting the storage ring into the mechanism at the bottom of the wooden cabinet, Merge fell on the bed, refining the six-star battle armor tomorrow is a rather mental and physical work, so you need to sleep well tonight and recuperate.

Finding a comfortable position, Merge fell into a deep sleep.

............

The next morning, just after the sun was rising, and before the morning light shone through the window on the roof of the alchemy hut, Merge got up from his bed sleepily.

The window on the roof of the alchemy hut is a lighting outlet specially designed for the light of the workbench. In this way, sunlight can reach the Moger workbench throughout the day.

Although alchemy lamps can also be used for lighting, all alchemy involving magic crystals needs to be illuminated with natural light. This is because each magic crystal taken out of the belly of the magic beast is unique and unique, and only natural light can completely present the energy patterns inside the magic crystal in the eyes of the alchemist.

Of course, alchemy devices that can capture natural light for lighting exist, but they are expensive. Therefore, for the development of the Alchemy Hut, that is, in order to be able to save gold coins, the stingy old Daolun directly opened a skylight on the roof of the Alchemy Hut.

It is the existence of this skylight that makes the alchemists of the Blue Ear City Alchemy Association laugh at it, but with the old Daolun's cheeky skills, of course he will not care about these rumors and ridicule.

Because the alchemy hut has a good location, the skylight is very sufficient. For the design of the old Dowlen, Merge is most satisfied with this light-filled skylight, which is both cost-effective and easy to use.

After getting up from the bed, Merge washed his face with cold water, and suddenly felt much more refreshed. He also soaked his hands in warm water to prevent his fingers from being cold and stiff, which would affect the refining of battle armor. After half a ring, Merge wiped his hands dry, changed into a work clothes, and saw that the morning light had not yet reached the workbench, so he carefully checked the materials needed to refine the Fire Demon Battle Armor again.

The devil is in the details, and this saying is very useful in alchemy. After all, a small mistake can lead to the scrapping of the alchemy item as a whole.

After learning the lesson of Old Dolun, Merge would carefully check the alchemy materials three or four times, or even more, every time he refined alchemy items. Merge didn't want to repeat the mistake of the past, like Old Dolun, because there was a small crack in the alchemy material of the Mana Extraction Furnace, but Old Dorun didn't check it out, causing the magic power in the furnace to leak out, causing the Mana Forges to explode, killing Old Dorun himself.

The death of old Dorun had a great impact on Merge, and these effects were not only psychological, but also alchemy.

When the morning light shone on the workbench through the skylight, Merge moved his fingers a few times, sat down at the workbench, picked up a six-star magic crystal, and looked closely through the morning light.

The six-star magic crystal is taken from the six-star demonic beast, and it is the most core component for refining the six-star fire demon battle armor.

Just like no one is exactly the same, each crystal is unique. In the words of the alchemist, that is, every magic crystal has its own temper.

What the alchemist has to do is to build an environment suitable for this magic crystal according to the temper of this magic crystal, and then use ingenious means to extract the massive amount of magic stored in the magic crystal. In other words, it is necessary to refine different magic extraction devices around the characteristics of each magic crystal.

This is one of the reasons why battle armor is expensive.

Although the power of battle armor is powerful, the refining process is extremely complicated. Moreover, the higher the level of battle armor, the higher the quality of the materials required for refining, and the higher the requirements for the level of the alchemist.

Most of the materials needed to refine the battle armor were taken from the body of the same level of demonic beasts and magic crystals. To refine battle armor with different attributes, you need to collect monster bodies and related materials with different attributes.

In this way, the fire attribute magic crystal in Kemerge's hand came from a six-star lava horned snake.

Through the sunlight, Merge carefully observed the energy patterns in the magic crystal in his hand, and from time to time took out a blank piece of paper from under the workbench and drew the thoughts he observed on the white paper.

The energy pattern within the magic crystal also represents the energy distribution within the magic crystal in a sense. The Crystal is like a room where a lot of berserk magic is stored, and the berserk power in the shard can only be used if you find the right exit from the room and draw out the berserk energy in the room in the right order and way.

If the order or method of channeling the magic is not correct, then it will backfire, resulting in the inability to draw out the magic power in the magic crystal, and may even detonate the violent magic in the magic crystal, causing the magic crystal to explode instantly. The explosion of the magic crystal is equivalent to the self-explosion of the same level of demonic beasts, and the power is so great that it can be imagined.

Therefore, observing the energy patterns in the magic crystal is an extremely critical step in the process of refining battle armor.

Half an hour later, Merge put aside the magic crystal in his hand, picked up the plan he had applied casually in the process of observing the magic crystal, and weighed it repeatedly, thinking about the best plan to channel the magic power.

After half a ring, Merge took out a blank piece of paper and redrew a more complex plan based on the mana extraction plan he had drawn earlier. The new scheme not only synthesizes the previous ideas, but also incorporates the inspiration that Merge got from reading the notes, so the new scheme looks extremely complex, like a ghost drawing.

Crumpling the other options into a paper ball and tossing it aside, Merge took out the metal box soaked in the blood of the Lava Horned Serpent and fumbled for it.

This small metal box is the shell of the Magic Crystal Furnace, and the Magic Crystal Furnace is soaked in the blood of the Lava Horned Serpent in order to be able to channel the magic more gently in the process of extracting the magic of the magic crystal.

Merge took out a hard metal needle and gently swiped it across the magic crystal furnace according to the plan. The sharp tip of the metal needle sliced through the outer shell of the Magic Crystal Furnace, leaving a faint line.

The portrayal of the magic extraction circuit is a delicate job, and if there is a little mistake, you can only give up the wrong magic crystal furnace and take out the new magic crystal furnace shell to re-depict, so the portrayal of the magic extraction circuit also consumes a lot of time for Merge.

Near noon, after scrapping the two metal boxes, Merge finally carved the preliminary route of the magic extraction pattern on the shell of the magic crystal furnace.

After preliminarily mapping the mana extraction circuit, Merge took out the tool knife and expanded and deepened the circuit on the shell of the magic crystal furnace to form an alchemy circuit.

An hour later, Merge set aside the shell of the Crystal Furnace where the mana channeling pattern had been depicted, and began to depict the mana channeling circuit on the armor, as well as the mana circle on the drive slot, armor, and the magic crystal furnace.
