114. The Legacy of Black Bone
The blood mist sank, and the corridors were silent.
Li Nuo raised his hand, clicked on a few deformed corpses with relatively intact appearances, and recruited the other party as his deceased subordinates.
While controlling the aberrant corpse to clean up the battlefield and collect loot, he checked the system message just now.
[You have killed the Black Bone Hermit Kodar, the Rust Worm, the Stinger Hornet, the Bell Ladybug, the Flapping Centipede, the Hooked Scythe Stick Worm, and the Self-Exploding Shield Beetle]
[Passive deconstruction activation! ] γ
[You get the following deconstruction result:]
[1. Standardized panel information for first-order black bone alchemists, as well as various alchemy worms.] γ
[2. The recent important memories of the Black Bone Hermit Kodar. γ
[3. Gain a total of 6700 energy points.] Among them, unlock the standard panel of "First-Order Black Bone Alchemist", which rewards 6,000 energy points; Unlock the panel information of various Alchemy Worms, rewarding a total of 700 Energy points. γ
"The energy value has increased again~ I can't spend it, I can't spend it at all~"
Li Nuo was secretly happy in his heart, raised his hand and swept over the wreckage in front of him who couldn't tell whose it was, and silently recited "collect soul crumbs".
[System News: "Soul Absorption" has been successfully activated! γ
[You collected a piece of soul crumb from the remains of the "Black Bone Hermit Kodar"!] γ
[Soul Strength +40.] γ
[The current soul strength is 122 points.] γ
"Cool! Ha ha! β
Li Nuo chuckled.
The soul power consumed by the Evil Explosion Technique is all back!
The strength of the soul for meditation is also enough!
This is a good thing that Li Nuo never expected.
He had thought that he would have to enter the underground area again to get enough soul strength for meditation, but he really didn't expect that he would be able to make up enough money in one time.
"Good, good. I quickly picked up the loot and went back to break through the "spirit" to 20 points. In this way, I can understand most of the textbooks in the basic stage of alchemy. β
Li Nuo calmed down and commanded his deformed corpses to clean up the battlefield with all his might.
He had the aberrant deceased separate the corpses from the loot.
The corpses are swept into the shaft, destroying the corpses and erasing the traces of their own death-type spells.
All the loot is examined with deconstruction to make sure that there is no potential harm before starting to observe.
"Isn't this Kodar's black bone shard? It's amazing that they were undamaged in the explosion of the Evil Explosion Technique. β
Li Nuo used his gloved hands to pick up the black alchemy bone fragment from the ground.
He had expected that once Kodar died, his black bone fragments would disappear.
Now, the alchemy array patterns on these black bone fragments are gone, but the bone fragments themselves are intact.
Li Nuo realized that these black bone fragments were not as simple as he thought.
He called up Kodar's panel information and read it carefully.
The truth of everything comes out.
It turns out that these black, hard-textured alchemy bone pieces are actually the raw materials of the "alchemy stone" exclusive to the black bone hermit!
In the book "Basic Alchemy Theory" it is said this:
Learners can make "Alchemy Stones" by entering the Spirit Transposition Ritual Array, extracting a part of their "spirit" and "soul", and integrating them into the "Spirit Container" provided by the Alchemy Sanctuary.
From now on, transforming the "alchemy stone" is equivalent to transforming one's own "spirit" and "soul".
In the Black Bone Hermit, the Black Bone Hermit puts his own soul into a black bone fragment to create a unique "alchemy stone".
These black bone fragments are the spirit vessels that hold the "spirit" and "soul" of the black bone hermits!
The Spirit Vessel provided by the Alchemy Sanctuary has a pebble-like rounded appearance that is indestructible.
The spirit container provided by the Black Bone Hermitage is a piece of dark bone, but it is also indestructible, and the material is rare.
The result was that Kodar was dead, but the black bone fragments were unharmed.
After Li Nuo figured out the cause and effect, his heart suddenly moved.
Since the Black Bone Hermit Society was able to create its own alchemy stones, wouldn't that mean that they had mastered a complete set of Spirit Transposition Ritual Arrays.
Therefore, the extraordinary ritual of the Spirit Soul Transposition Ritual is not exclusive to the Alchemy Sanctuary, and others can completely imitate it.
If you open the door to do business in the future and specialize in providing soul transposition services to people, wouldn't it be a hair...
A gleam flashed in Li Nuo's eyes, but then he hid this profiteering opportunity in the deepest part of his heart.
Before he had enough strength, privately providing spirit transposition services was undoubtedly provoking the Alchemy Sanctuary.
It is an act of death.
Just look at the situation of the Black Bone Hermitage.
Judging from Kodar's memories, these self-proclaimed "hermits" were like fire and water with the Alchemy Sanctuary, hating each other and accumulating deep grudges.
Due to the powerful strength of the Alchemy Sanctuary, the Black Bone Hermit could only hide in the deepest part of the rift corridor, using the alchemy device that collects the feces of the deformed body as a threat to force the Alchemy Sanctuary to throw a rat trap, and did not dare to attack in a big way to clean up the black city.
Who the top of the Black Bone Hermitage was, Kodar didn't remember.
But from his personal experience, the black city is dark, the resources are scarce, and the rules are chaotic.
There are many illegal forces like the Black Bone Hermit Order.
Their interests are different, but one thing is the same, and that is that they have a common enemy, the Alchemy Sanctuary.
In order to better cope with the pressure of the Alchemy Sanctuary, the illegal forces of the Black City have hatched a dangerous and bold plan!
They're trying to tame the aberrations and turn them into their pets!
The danger of this plan is extremely high, but the illegal forces of the Black City have already achieved some results.
A typical example is the distortion that appears in the food warehouse on the third basement floor.
The Black Bone Hermit Kodar and his alchemical minions are responsible for spreading the aberrations of the plague in the underground areas of Sector 7.
They manually carry the eggs of the aberrations, place them on the underground levels, and patrol them regularly to monitor the breeding data as if they were stocking the aberrations, and the Rift Corridor is what they see as pasture.
When Li Nuo was cleaning up the food warehouse before, he made a lot of noise, which aroused Kodar's vigilance, and this is why the battle just now took place.
As for the details of why Kodar was not hostile to the aberrant and how he carried the aberrant egg, Li Nuo also found the answer in his memory fragments and panel information.
All of this is done through living alchemy.
Kodar and alchemy minions who have been transformed by living alchemy will emit the same scent as the aberrations.
Distortors see them as if they were their own kind, and naturally do not target them.
It's a pity that Li Nuo didn't find relevant alchemical information in Kodar's memory.
It is estimated that Kodar's transformation into living alchemy happened a long time ago, so it did not appear in the more important memory fragments of the "recent past".
Li Nuo didn't feel too sorry for this.
Isn't it just an aberration, just kill one by one, and don't think about being friends with them.
Li Nuo sneered dumbly, and quickly cleaned up the loot in front of him.
He opened his backpack, took out a clean rag, wiped it a few times, wiped the stains off the black bone fragments, and stuffed it into the backpack and put it away.
Ten black bone fragments, one of which was not a lot, were all collected by him.
Isn't the Elemental Judgment rewarding the Black Bone Hermit for clues?
Li Nuo decided to divide a small portion of the black bone fragment and send it to the Elemental Trial to see how much the other party could pay.
If the reward is rich enough and sincere, then Li Nuo doesn't mind killing a few more Black Bone Hermits to fuel the Elemental Trial.
The black bone fragments were properly disposed of, and the next step was the worm flute that controlled the alchemy worm.
This small thing was blown into three pieces by the Evil Explosion Technique.
Li Nuo put the broken flute together, and barely pieced together the true appearance of the insect flute.
It is about the size of an index finger and is a hollowed-out bone with several pores on its surface.
By playing the melodica, the air flow is directed at the air holes, and the unique tone of the alchemy worm can be played.
The Evil Explosion Technique killed many kinds of alchemy worms, and Kodar also had the knowledge to play the worm flute in his memory.
There is too much information and knowledge on the relevant panel, Li Nuo will not be able to see it for a while, so he simply put it all aside and slowly checked it when he returned to the dormitory.
Wrapping the broken insect flute in a towel and putting it in his backpack, Li Nuo picked up a deformed metal box again.
The metal box was the size of the palm of a hand, and its entire body was pitch black, and the material was unknown, barely resisting the impact of the Evil Explosion Technique, but it also turned into a crooked appearance.
After confirming that there were no traps, Li Nuo opened the metal box.
A row of needles as thin as a hair's head, and a row of potions of unknown purpose appeared in the box.
Leno searched Kodar's memory for a quick moment, then nodded slowly, and put the lid of the metal box on his backpack.
The needle, which is as thin as a hair, is a syringe and a special alchemy tool for living alchemy.
The unknown potions that are matched with the needle are all kinds of psychotropic drugs, hormone potions, concentrated alchemy mixtures, etc.
After the living alchemist loses most of his physiological functions, he has to prick himself with a few stitches from time to time to stabilize his physical and mental state, otherwise he will easily go crazy.
These syringes and potions, Li Nuo can't use them.
He planned to keep a few as samples, and take all the rest to the elemental judgment to see if the other party could accept these things.
Standing up and glancing around, Li Nuo double-searched the nearby ground with his gaze and deconstruction.
"I shouldn't have left anything behind..."
Li Nuo calmed down, examined it, and then snapped his fingers and ordered his aberrant corpse to jump into the shaft.
The entire ingredient warehouse and corridor suddenly became quiet and much empty.
All traces related to the "Death Technique" and the "Evil Explosion Technique" have been erased.
Li Nuo thought for a moment, turned to the shaft, and raised the wheel to shoot the metal chain.
After a burst of firepower, the four metal chains of the suspended lifting platform were shot through, and the lifting platform below entered a state of free fall.
Li Nuomo counted for more than ten seconds and heard a faint collision sound coming from the distant underground.
"Bang dang..."
"It's good, the platform is on the ground. If the illegal forces of the Black City want to return to the third underground layer in a short period of time, it is estimated that it will take a lot of effort. Otherwise, they will have to go through the silos of other sectors. β
Li Nuo no longer stayed.
He tightened the straps of his backpack, stepped on the blood and slime on the ground, and ran quickly to the stairwell leading to the ground.
"Huh? By the way, shall I find out the whereabouts of Fars and Conte? β
Li Nuo patted his head, slowed down a little, and thought to himself.
"Kodar and his two alchemical minions came up from the ninth basement floor of Sector 7. Before they rode the shaft's lifting platform, they did not encounter Fars or Conte. This means that Fars and Conte did not go to the ninth basement..."
Leno pulled up a fragment of Kodar's memories and looked at it carefully.
It was about midnight yesterday.
Two strange black city alchemists have arrived in the underground area controlled by Kodar.
The two sides exchanged views for a short time.
Judging from the content of the conversation, these two strange black city alchemists received a hiring assignment.
The specific content of the mercenary mission is to ambush Fars and his mechanical spiders on the third underground level.
The two Black City alchemists didn't elaborate on who hired them, but judging from what happened to Fars, it should be their peers competing for alchemy task indicators.
They told Kodar that they would leave the shaft on the fourth floor of the basement and return directly to the Black City after they succeeded.
So the words...
Fars and Conte shouldn't have been able to catch up with the two Black City alchemists.
Conte wasted some time asking the team to collect the alchemy parts scattered all over the place, and Fars wasted some time analyzing the ins and outs after getting the alchemy parts.
It is extremely unlikely that they will catch up with the Black City Alchemist.
With Canter here, Fars shouldn't lose his mind and jump into the shaft, right?
Li Nuo blinked as he ran, thinking that it was more likely that the two Conte had returned to the ground, and that he should not worry about them.
Honestly.
Fars's courage to take on a difficult alchemy task is indeed commendable and worthy of praise.
There is nothing wrong with him taking on the highly competitive alchemy task in order to make his family live a better life.
His dreams, starting points, and ideas are all fine.
None of this was the real reason for his setbacks.
The real mistake he made was that he was not clear about his positioning.
The heart is higher than the sky, and life is thinner than paper.
He had great ambitions, but because of his humble birth, he couldn't do many things on his own.
Under the rule of the Alchemy Sanctuary, alchemists were highly hierarchical.
How could it be that Fars was trying to single-handedly fight against rivals who were backed by powerful alchemists...
To put it pessimistically:
If Fars couldn't correct his mentality in time, he might fall to the side of the Black City because of his confusion and confusion for a while, and under the bewitchment of the alchemists of the Black City.
This is undoubtedly a situation far more tragic than the failure of the alchemy mission.
"Shhhh No, no. If Fars falls into the Black City, although I don't have any responsibility, I always feel a little uncomfortable..."
Li Nuo stopped, frowning and thinking deeply.
Before the crossing, as an ordinary person with no background, no support, and no systematic body, he had also suffered from the warmth and misfortune of the world, and encountered a heavy blow in the journey of life.
If he hadn't met a noble person at a critical time and was helped by the other party, Li Nuo thought that he would not be able to get out of the haze in a short time, and he would probably go to self-destruction in extreme pessimism.
From that time, Li Nuo understood a truth:
The collapse of adults is instantaneous, and it only takes a little kindness and hope to resolve this tragedy.
Fars's experience made Li Nuo empathize, as if he saw himself before the crossing.
The same humble birth, the same hard power to get results, the same beaten by society...
Li Nuo can get the help of nobles at critical moments, so why can't he become a nobleman of Fars?
Passing on this spirit of "pulling others at critical moments" may reduce many tragedies.
To put it more worldly, "icing on the cake" is not as good as "sending charcoal in the snow".
Over time, Fars became a well-known alchemist, and he would never forget how Li Nuo helped him.
After all, Fars himself once said, "I am a man with clear grievances, and I will help whoever helps me." β
Li Nuo nodded slowly, coming back to his senses from his thoughts.
Whether it was out of investment in Fars' future or the psychological need to subrogate himself to compensate for the help he had been given by nobles, he decided to give Rafals a hand.
But not now.
He was short of ammunition and a little exhausted, so he might as well go back to the ground and recuperate.
Perhaps, Fars didn't need much persuasion from him, and he would have been able to get out of the predicament with Conte's help
Li Nuo steadied himself and hurried away.
The sound of clattering footsteps echoed through the silent corridors.
With his departure, the dim underground three floors fell into dead darkness.
β¦
β¦
An underground entrance controlled by the Iron Thorn Shield.
The metal gates on the floor move slowly, opening to the sides, revealing an underground passage below.
Li Nuo walked out of the underground entrance with a body of sewage, lifted his breathing mask, and turned his face with sunglasses and a face towel to the security personnel next to him:
"Man, are Fars and Captain Conte back?"
The security personnel were holding their arms, looking at the fierce man who dared to stay alone underground.
He nodded and said:
"They're back. Both suffered some injuries. Conte is fine, able to walk and talk. The Fars guy suffered, and he was unconscious all the way, and he had to be carried back by Conte. β
"Oh, that's good." Li Nuo secretly breathed a sigh of relief that the worst-case scenario he had expected did not materialize.
He waved his hand at the security guards and walked towards the warehouse door:
"Thanks, man, goodbye."
"Hey, buddy, are you going to kill all the deviants on the three underground floors?" The security guard shouted at Li Nuo's back.
Li Nuo waved his hand back, noncommittal, and left the warehouse in silence.
"What a weirdo..."The security officer shrugged slightly, turned around and slammed the door button, closing the sluice gate on the floor.
"Bang dang." The floodgates close.
Li Nuo walked out of the warehouse and stretched out in the afternoon sun.
He walked up the stairs outside the building to the fifth floor, entered the dormitory, put down his backpack, and brought clean clothes to wash his incense.
Half an hour later, Li Nuo changed into clean clothes, packed the things he wanted to take to the cat club, and came to the front desk of the company.
"Help me get this map to Captain Conte... By the way, did he leave me any message? β
Li Nuo asked, handing over the map that Conte had given him.
The female receptionist put away the map, tilted her head, thought for half a second and said:
"Huh? β¦ No, I don't. After he came back, he took Fars directly to the infirmary on the third floor, and he still hasn't come out. β
"Later, if Conte asks about me, you can help me talk to Conte, and I'll go to the cat club in the next sector."
"Okay."
In this alchemical society without mobile phones and pagers, the front desk is the microphone.
Li Nuo walked out of the company and walked towards Sector 8.
He has a clean ID card, and the entire lower part of the Aggregation City is passable.
Sector 8 is the area controlled by the Life Condensation Society and the Cat Society.
The No. 9 to No. 11 next door to it are the sectors of the Dog Society, the Grass Planting Society, and the Stone Mining Society.
Sector 8 of the Cat Society, which is guarded by the Cat Society's security company.
The No. 9 sector of the dog club is the territory of the Fierce Dog Gang.
Sector 10 of the Grass Plantation Society is guarded by the Grass Planting Security Company.
Sector 11 of the Quarry Society is the territory of the Razor Gang.
A security company, a gang, another security company and a gang.
This set of defense force layout system is quite strange in the eyes of Li Nuo, a traverser, but it is normal in the eyes of the natives of the Golden Federation.
What's more interesting is that gangs like the Fierce Dogs and the Razors don't target other branches in the Life Solidarity Society, but instead target non-Life Cohesion Society's security companies.
This is as if the Life Condensation Society itself sings both red and black faces, and there is a sense of using gangs to compete with other alchemy forces for wealth and materials reasonably and legally.
Such a strange social structure is not only found here in the Convergence City. In other cities of the Golden Federation, there is also a situation where good and bad forces are entangled.
I have to say that the "three states" theory pursued by the Alchemy Sanctuary has a really great impact on the social structure...
Li Nuo used his identity card to pass the inspection of the security personnel of the cat club and successfully stepped into the No. 8 sector.
He followed the signs on the road and found the alchemy cat shop opened by the Cat Society.
It is a large shop with five floors and an open hall on the first floor.
The store is full of goods, customers of all ages, and the cupboard is meowing.
All kinds of kittens "scratch their heads" in the cupboard, eager to be taken back by customers to raise.
Li Nuo's gaze swept over the cat in the window and met with a waiter.
The waiter must have been instructed by the Elemental Trial.
She was slightly stunned when she saw Li Nuo, and then took the initiative to greet Li Nuo with a light smile and led Li Nuo into a reception room on the third floor of the shop.
Sitting in the elegantly decorated reception room and waiting for a while, Li Nuo waited for Mion Felia, who had a good relationship, while tasting dessert and tea.
Filia is the female cat man who came to verify Li Nuo's identity, and she is more polite than the first female cat person, Sandora Betty.
Li Nuo had a good impression of Filia, and when he saw the other party's human form at this time, his eyes lit up.
Filia wore a simple and simple beige slip dress, and her fair arms and sleek shoulders were covered by a translucent silk shawl.
The facial features are three-dimensional, the eyes are bright, the temperament is tranquil, and the full moon slowly rises and falls with even breathing.
Out of politeness, Li Nuo put down the teaglass, stood up, and bowed his head to the other party and said:
"Hello, miss, this is the second time we have met."
"Good day, Mr. Li Lei, I'm Mion Filia, the clerk of this alchemy cat shop. Of course, you know who I really am, and we won't introduce each other. β
With a ceremonial smile, Filia invited Li Nuo to sit down.
Li Nuo did not feel restrained by the other party's beauty at all, and quickly broke away from the state of appreciation.
"Just call me Li Lei."
After he sat down, he went straight to the point, picked up the backpack at his feet, and put it on the coffee table between the two:
"You need clues from the Black Bone Hermit, right? I brought. Let's open it and take a look,"
"Okay, please wait."
Filia reached for the pendant around her neck, grabbing a handful of light from the glowing green jade and placing it on her backpack.
The light is integrated into the backpack, and the contents are taken out by the light group and placed flat on the table.
"Black bone shards of the Black Bone Hermit, worm flutes, syringe storage boxes."
Filia recognized the thing in front of her at a glance, and her tone was a little solemn:
"Li Lei, is it convenient for you to reveal the specific location of the encounter with the Black Bone Hermit?"
"Of course, it's near the mouth of the shaft on the third basement level of Sector 7."
Li Nuo told the truth, relayed the general course of events, and concealed the specific battle process.
For example, what method he used to block the alchemy worm, what means to kill the black bone hermit, and so on, all of them were brushed over by him, and he didn't elaborate.
Even the name "Kodar", Li Nuo did not reveal half a point.
Because on the loot he collected, there was no identity information of the Black Bone Hermit.
ββ¦ That's how it happened, Filia. I didn't associate that Black City Alchemist with what you call the Black Bone Hermit. It wasn't until I saw him split into ten black bone shards that I realized that this was the black bone hermit you were looking for. β
Li Nuo picked up the teacup and moistened his throat with warm tea.
Filia asked with a deep groan:
"Would you like to sell us the seven black bone shards you brought? The Alchemy Sanctuary has issued a warrant for the Black Bone Hermit. For each black bone fragment handed in, the Alchemy Sanctuary will reward 10,000 aggregate coins. If you sell it to us, we are willing to pay double the amount, which is 20,000 aggregate coins per black bone fragment. 7 black bone fragments are 140,000 aggregate coins. Counting the 10,000 reward you provide for clues, you can get a total of 150,000 aggregate coins. What do you think of this? β
"Good deal, I don't have to say no." Li Nuo smiled, changed his words, and asked puzzledly:
"There's something I don't quite understand. This black-bone hermit should be a living alchemist, right? Why are you interested in them? And they are willing to spend a lot of money to buy these black bone fragments at a higher price... Of course, if it involves secrecy, you don't need to explain it, I'm presumptuous. β
Filia lifted her shoulders slightly, sighed lightly and said:
"There's really nothing that can't be said. I don't know if you have noticed, these black bone fragments are not only hard to block bullets, but also have excellent elemental energy resistance. β
Li Nuo's mind moved, and he called up Kodar's panel information and glanced at it, and suddenly understood what the crux was.
β¦
γCharacteristics of Kodarγ
Strong Black Bone:
Whether in bone or human form, Kodar has at least 80% elemental energy resistance and kinetic energy resistance.
He is immune to most elemental states, such as burning, shocked, paralyzed, poisoned, etc., and can deflect most projectiles.
β¦
This trait only appeared on the panel information after Leno killed Kodar.
Now that I think about it, Li Nuo's ability to kill Kodar actually has an element of lost luck.
This is because the energy released by the Evil Explosion is the energy of death, not the four elemental energies of water, wind, earth, and fire, and it is not the kinetic energy caused by bullets.
Kodar's black bone body does not have an additional resistance bonus to death energy, so it will naturally be destroyed by the evil explosion technique.
"It seems to be true." Li Nuo pretended to be thinking and said:
"I can't hurt the black-bone hermit with my usual means. As a last resort, I used my hole cards to take the opponent down. Now that I think about it, you're right. The resistance of black bone fragments is excellent. β
"Yes, that's what got our attention." Filia nodded her chin:
"We have found that the bone fragments used by the Black Bone Hermit are effective in blocking fire and electric shocks, and also have a good defense against toxins and wind blades. Legal alchemists mainly use fire, electricity, poison, and wind, these four means of attack. Black bone fragments are just the right counterweight to these methods. Our Elemental Judgment's attack methods are similar, and they are restrained by the Black Bone Fragments. β
"So you want to dig into the black bone fragments and find a way to crack it, right?"
"Yes." Filia blinked and added:
"If you have any other black bone shards there, we'll buy them for 20,000 aggregates each. Also, if you'd like, we'd like to invite you to join us in the Rift Corridor to hunt the Black Bone Hermit during Dusting Day, and for days to come. β
"Hmm... I do have some black bone chips. However, I intend to keep it as research material. β
Li Nuo didn't reluctantly cut his love because of the beauty's current situation:
"As for working with you, I'll pay you a visit if I have time."
Li Nuo pointed to the insect flute and metal box on the table and said:
"Do you need these two things?"
Filia shook her head slightly in response:
"We won't buy these two things."
"Oh, so that's the end of the deal." Li Nuo clapped his hands and pushed the black bone fragment in front of Filia, and then put the worm flute and the metal box into his backpack.
Filia grabbed a handful of light from the green jade pendant and placed it on the table.
The glow of the light cluster dissipated, revealing a stack of aggregate coins.
Li Nuo swept it with deconstruction, glanced at the name of the item on the system message, and instantly completed the work of counting the banknotes.
He smiled at Filia, and instead of counting the money in person, he put the aggregate coins directly into his backpack, showing full trust.
Filia stood up and escorted him to the door of the shop.
Li Nuo shook his hand at the other party and merged into the crowd of people on the street.
150 thousand.
Hiss.
I got 150,000 all at once.
Theoretically, after he returned to the Iron Thorn Shield, he could erase the alchemy mark on his thumb as soon as he handed over 100,000 yuan, and became a free man who was not bound by the Iron Thorn Shield and the alchemy contract.
But well, Li Nuo is not in a hurry to do this.
First, the alchemy mark on his thumb has not been fully studied by him. Erasing the alchemy mark early is equivalent to missing the research material. This deal is a loss, and Li Nuo will not do it.
Secondly, the 150,000 that has just arrived, Li Nuo has an urgent need, and he already has a definite plan.
After returning to Sector 7, he first went to the bookstore "Time Boilers" and bought a full set of self-taught alchemy exam bibliography from the bald old man.
He's used deconstruction to get all the books in his head, but the superficial work still has to be done. Otherwise, others would be surprised to hear that he had passed the self-taught alchemy exam after only buying one book.
In order to avoid exposing his anomalies, Li Nuo did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of money to purchase a complete set of bibliographies, so he spent 30,000 aggregate coins.
After this, he left the alley where the bookstore was located, passed by the gate of "Money Dreams", and stepped into the alchemy bazaar opened by the Gold Chamber of Commerce in the sector.
Pushing away the bustling crowd, Li Nuo stopped in front of the alchemy club called "One-to-One Replacement".
This alchemy club is run by the Gold Chamber of Commerce and offers a full range of services to legitimate alchemy enthusiasts.
From alchemy materials, alchemy facilities, alchemy rooms, to testing test sites for alchemy props, everything is available.
All services and materials can be bought with aggregate coins.
Li Nuo entered the door, opened a membership account with his identity card, deposited 100,000 aggregate coins as membership dues, and rented a small alchemy room.
Led by the waiter into the corridor, Li Nuo came to the third floor of the club.
"Mr. Li Lei, this is the alchemy room you rented."
The waiter untied the mechanical combination lock on the door, opened the door with the key, and introduced the layout of the alchemy room to Li Nuo.
It's a small but well-equipped place.
The modern Golden Federation has bid farewell to the coal-fired furnaces, stone crucibles, and manual stirring rods of the past, and replaced them with constant temperature alchemy furnaces, all-metal floating crucibles, and robotic arms that automatically stir the slurry.
Even the lamps hanging from the ceiling have changed from candles and coal lamps to glow tubes with a steady and bright glow.
As long as Li Nuo still has money on his membership card, he can use these modern alchemy facilities.
In addition, the alchemy room has a small cubicle that provides modest accommodation and showers for those who indulge in the study of alchemy.
On the first to third floors of the club, there is a warehouse of alchemy materials with a huge capacity and a complete range of materials.
Similarly, as long as he had money, Li Nuo could use the materials there at will.
After the waiter left, Li Nuo threw his backpack on the desk in the corner, crossed his waist and looked around, using deconstruction to examine everything.
There are no magic circles and props in the whole room that shouldn't exist.
Li Nuo was very satisfied.
It's right to think about it, if the alchemy club monitors the customer's every move, it is no different from plagiarizing the results of alchemy research.
There are no monitoring props and magic arrays in the alchemy room, which is normal.
"From today, I'm going to officially begin exploring the mysteries of alchemy. As soon as I have time, I will soak here. So, which project to start with? Try to draw an alchemy mark, depict some simple alchemy arrays, or modify a firearm with alchemy to increase the ammo capacity and firepower..."
Li Nuo rubbed his hands together and paced around the room.
He suddenly patted his head:
"By the way, the most important thing I should solve is the 'backpack' problem. I can only pack things with a normal back right now. Not to mention the small number of loads, I am also particularly worried that the contents of the bag will be affected by the battle. In order to dig out more goods and bring more supplies, the most important thing is that I first use alchemy to transform the backpack. β
Li Nuo called up the alchemy book in his mind and quickly flipped through it:
"I remember that in the book "Basic Alchemy Array Principles", there are several alchemy arrays that shape the folding space. When I read this, I knew I was going to use... Let me find out which page the alchemy array of the folding space is..."
Li Nuo snapped his fingers:
"Oh~ I found it. The standard small-capacity folding space requires 20 alchemy runes and more than a dozen alchemy materials. The alchemical formula is also in the book. As long as I follow the instructions, I can transform an ordinary backpack into an alchemy backpack with 0.5 cubic meters of folding space. The only downside is that this folding space can only exist for about a week. I need to use the alchemy array regularly to consolidate the folding space... Huh? Wait a minute. β
Rino thought of something, paused for a moment, and instead began to search Kodar's panel and memories.
He hadn't had time to delve into Kodar's panel information before, so he had just skimmed through it.
But he vaguely remembered that he seemed to have seen a skill similar to Folding Space on Kodar's passive skill.
The folding space provided by that skill is quite unusual.
It uses the blood of the human body as a carrier, and opens up a very hidden storage space on the human body.
Kodar relied on this skill to store a large number of alchemy worms and worm flutes in his body.
Li Nuo was deeply impressed by the image of Kodar releasing the alchemy swarm, and he couldn't help but feel a deep curiosity at this time.
He stood still, frowning slightly, immersed in the search.
After about two minutes, a bright light flashed under his eyes, and his expression was faintly excited.
"Found it, the "Blood Alchemy Array" in living alchemy, an alchemy that opens up storage space in the blood to store living and dead things. The storage space created by this alchemy array is far more clever than the folding space shown in the book "Basic Theory". β
Li Nuo took the name of the "Blood Alchemy Array" and went to Kodar's memories to search for relevant information.
Another two minutes passed.
Li Nuo exhaled a long breath, his face was full of excitement and regret.
There were two messages in front of him.
One good news, one bad news.
The good news is that the Blood Na Alchemy Array needs regular maintenance to ensure the stability of the storage space.
Almost every week, Kodar had to use a magic circle and medicine to "maintain" the storage space in his body.
His memory was full of a complete set of materials for constructing the "Blood Alchemy Array".
Runes, materials, formulas, everything.
But the bad is the bad...
This blood alchemy array will damage the body.
It will make people thin to the point of being out of shape, and become skinny and weak thin dogs.
In the language of gamification:
While the Blood Alchemy Array opens up storage space in the body, it will also greatly reduce the attributes of "Tenacity", "Vitality" and "Charm".
For the sake of a storage space hidden in the body, I lost my handsome appearance, charming facial features, and well-proportioned posture...
The Black City Alchemist maybe.
Li Nuo couldn't do it anyway.
"System, harmlessly deconstruct the "Blood Alchemy Array" in Kodar's memory."
With Li Nuo's silent recitation, the system sent a message.
[You are about to launch a harmless deconstruction of the "Blood Alchemy Array". γ
[Based on your alchemy knowledge and skills, it is estimated that you will consume 2122 energy points, which can make the completion of harmless deconstruction reach 100%. γ
γYou will get the following results:γ
[A mutilated but harmless copy of the Alchemy Blueprint: Blood Alchemy Array.] γ
[Follow this drawing, and you will open up a harmless blood space in your body.] γ
[Harmless blood storage space, with an initial capacity of 0.5 cubic meters.] γ
[You can only deposit items with inanimate characteristics, not living creatures, such as live alchemy worms, cats, dogs, mice, etc.] γ
[In addition, the harmless blood space will not have any negative impact on your panel attributes, but it will consume at least 1 energy point every time you store items.] The specific energy consumption is related to the volume of the item. γ
Leno laughed.
"It's good, harmless deconstruction only requires more than 2,000 energy points, which is much lower than my budget. In that case, there is nothing to hesitate about... system, I confirm harmless deconstruction! β
After a brief trance, an alchemy blueprint came to mind.
Name: Harmless Blood Alchemy Array
Type: Living Alchemy
[Level] Level 1, cannot be upgraded with stamina
As you learn more about living alchemy, this panel will be updated and you'll get a way to level up the circle.
γAlchemy Formulaγ
Alchemy Rune: ....
Alchemy materials: 5 liters of highland lizard blood, 3 pairs of chelicerae of grassland back stone crab, 300 ml of purple leaf extract juice after rain, 500 grams of pure powder of white stone flower...
Alchemy Formula:... (omitting a number of three-dimensional figures that cannot be expressed)
γEffect of Arrayγ
Add a harmless storage space to your body. The initial size is 0.5 cubic meters, and only inanimate items can be stored.
[Defects]
Harmless storage cannot store living and extraordinary items. Upgrading the Circle does not fix this flaw, only increases the size of the storage space.
β¦
"Yo roar, start alchemy~"
Li Nuo glanced at the harmless deconstruction, emptied his backpack, put it on his back, and turned to leave the alchemy room.
Alchemy materials are available in the club.
However, in order to ensure that his alchemy purpose would not be discovered by others, Li Nuo decided to only take some materials from the club, and the rest of the materials were purchased in the alchemy bazaars of other sectors.
In this way, if people with ulterior motives want to know what he did in the alchemy room, it will take a lot more effort.
Yesterday's chapter of the battle was quite controversial, and the author explains:
The Evil Explosion was meant to appear in the deleted chapter. Since I couldn't find a good plot point to write about the evil explosion technique, I added a battle plot that seems more controversial now.
The routine used in this battle plot is to get rid of the routine of breaking through on the spot. Due to the author's lack of pen power, I didn't write it well, and I apologize to everyone. The routine itself was added by me on the fly in order to write in the Evil Explosion Technique. It's not a normal way of writing.
The author checked the follow-up documentation, and there was no such routine. You can watch it with confidence.
Yesterday's chapter can't be modified.,Because it's a VIP chapter.,Overhaul is easy to be sealed.,Please understand.γ
