126. Elementary alchemy

Back at the Mage's Tower, Levi seeks techniques to purify Mithril.

Thinking about it, there are only two that are most suitable for him - alchemy and alchemy.

The fields of the two overlap and are also independent.

Obviously, purified materials fall into the realm of overlap between the two.

The Mage Tower sells primary alchemy and primary alchemy.

A full-fledged mage is required to purchase.

It just so happened that Levi revealed his strength not long ago and became an official mage.

Otherwise, he will have to hesitate between spending money or revealing his strength.

"Damn, primary alchemy is so expensive?"

Levi's eyes widened as he looked at the prices on the list.

Primary Alchemy purchase price: 300 contributions. (Requirements: Official Mage)

"Is it worth it?"

Levi pondered, is it cost-effective to spend such a large price to learn alchemy for the remaining ten percent of Mithril?

"Good deal!"

There is still a long way to go, and there will be many places where alchemy will be used.

What's more, after the alchemy cultivation is successful, it can also become a tool to make money.

It's just an upfront investment, and sooner or later it will pay off.

On the other hand, ten percent of Mithril may be worth no less than three hundred gold coins.

The current price of 999 purity Mithril is 7.5 gold coins per gram.

If the weight of the Mithril obtained by purification exceeds 400 grams, it means that you have earned money by studying alchemy.

If you can further improve your alchemy skills, you can purify Mithril to 9999 purity.

The price of Mithril has skyrocketed to 15.6 gold coins per gram.

The value is directly doubled.

Levi left the Mage Tower, ready to sell the easily disposed of cores for money.

Let's get together 300 contributions first.

The Ant King's third-order demon core Levi kept it, and the remaining nine demon cores were all sold to the Cornucopia Chamber of Commerce.

"Hello, Master Levi, is there anything you need?"

"I'll sell a few magic cores, how much are they worth?"

"Okay, please come with me."

The shopkeeper took Li Wei upstairs and entered the VIP room.

Levi has been here a few times, the first time he has been buying elemental spars.

He took out two second-order demon cores and seven first-order demon cores and placed them on the table.

The shopkeeper picked up the magic core and looked at it, and took out a magnifying glass-like thing from his pocket to take care of the magic core.

In a few moments, he finished reading all the magic cores.

The shopkeeper put away the magic mirror and divided the nine magic cores into three piles.

"The proportion of magic elements in these first-order demon cores is less than fifty percent, and their value is low."

He said, pointing to the core on the far left.

"What do you think of the purchase price of four gold coins each?"

Levi nodded, "Yes." ”

The shopkeeper pointed to the three demon cores in the middle and said, "These demon cores have a high content of magic elements, seven gold coins each. ”

He looked at the two second-order demon cores on the far right.

"The magic content in these two second-order demon cores is very high, which can be called perfect."

"I'm willing to bid forty-five gold coins each."

Levi nodded, "Check out." ”

The shopkeeper went out, took back a small money bag, and handed it to Li Wei with both hands.

"There are one hundred and twenty-seven gold coins here, please keep them."

Levi went out with the money bag, and after going out, he put the gold coin into the space ring.

He thought as he walked.

"It seems that the value of the magic core of the rock demonic beast is indeed somewhat amazing."

"The second-order demon core that is almost full of magic essence is only worth forty or fifty gold coins, and the purchase price of the rock demon beast demon core is often hundreds of gold coins, regardless of the amount of magic element."

Li Wei also understood that the last time the Rock Demon Beast Demon Core was sold to Tanya for one hundred and eighty gold coins, the price was indeed a bit high.

The value of the third-order demon core is nothing more than that.

Back to the Mage Tower, krypton recharge contributes.

"Elementary Alchemy Explained"

Levi returned to his room and looked through the detailed explanation of elementary alchemy, and found that the entire book was divided into two parts.

Elementary Alchemy and Alchemy Catalogue.

The catalog of alchemical materials occupies one-fifth of the thickness, densely packed with nearly 100 pages.

Some of these alchemical materials can be borrowed directly from the library.

The books in these nearly 100 pages of catalogue are all knowledge that has been passed down by alchemists for thousands of years.

Various alchemy recipes, alchemy theories, alchemy principles......

Learning elementary alchemy is just the beginning, and how to use it requires deeper learning.

Learning alchemy from beginning to end is too complicated and too long.

Levi directly found the part of the primary alchemy that purified the essence of matter.

"Fire refining method, extraction method, transformation method, filtration method."

"The four purification methods of primary alchemy correspond to different attribute substances, and different purification methods need to be used."

"For the vast majority of metals, using the fire method is the easiest."

"There are two types of fire refining methods, the inner fire refining method and the outer fire refining method."

"In the internal fire refining method, you need to gather the fire element by yourself to create a smelting furnace and smelt the substance. It is characterized by complex operation, extremely high difficulty, good purification effect, high control accuracy, and cannot purify high-grade materials due to the limitation of its own level. ”

"In the external fire refining method, we find a suitable external heat source to create a smelting furnace and smelt the substance. It is characterized by relatively simple operation, low control accuracy, average purification effect, and can purify materials in large quantities, without being limited by their own level, and junior alchemists can also refine advanced materials. ”

"The Inner Fire Refining Method is less demanding and more suitable for me." Levi thought.

He built the furnace as the book says.

The smelting furnace of the Inner Fire Alchemy method is mainly composed of magical elements and spiritual power, and the size of the smelting furnace depends on the alchemist himself.

The amount of firepower also depends on its own strength.

[Elementary Alchemy (Zero Order)] 1/10000

Proficiency grows slowly.

It took more than two hours for Levi to successfully build the first elemental smelting furnace.

He looked at the ball of fire elementals gathered in his palm, and his face was speechless.

"This is the Elemental Smelting Furnace? What's the difference with Fireball? ”

With a thought, a fireball condensed in his left hand.

Levi carefully perceives the difference between the two.

The fire element in the fireball technique is more irritable and full of explosive power.

The exterior looks like an elemental smelting furnace, but the inside is a terrible mess that can't tolerate anything outside, and it explodes at the touch.

The exterior of the elemental melting furnace is a fireball, the interior is hollow, and the fire element is stable, continuously releasing heat to heat the substance inside the furnace from the inside out.

Due to Levi's own strength, the temperature of the elemental smelting furnace was not high.

It is far from meeting the requirements of the fire refining method to purify Mithril.

The upper temperature limit of an elemental melting furnace can be increased in two ways.

The first is to improve their own strength.

The second is to increase the level of alchemy.

Neither is something that can be done overnight.

Levi chose the third option.

Perform the Fireball Technique and turn the Fireball into an Elemental Smelting Furnace.

The temperature of the charged fireball is definitely sufficient.

Even the carapace of the Ant King can be burned to ashes, and melting Mithril ore is not easy.

As long as you can find a way to transform the charged fireball into an elemental smelting furnace, you can solve this problem directly.

Save yourself the time to start practicing elementary alchemy all over again.
