Chapter 14: The Difficult Enchantment
"Red 33.1, green 37.8, yellow 29.1. The composition of refined iron is 98.7, and the composition of lacquer carbon is 1.2. ”
Leo recorded the number jù he had obtained.
It was the focus of the enchantment exam, and he remembered it quite well.
And Leo also knows that this number must not be ignored, because depending on the metal substance, the ratio of enchanted materials must be adjusted accordingly, if the best fit cannot be achieved, even if the enchantment is successful, the effect will be greatly reduced.
"Either you don't do it, or you do it and you do it well. ”
Leo wasn't a perfectionist, but he liked what the middle-aged mage had said earlier.
At the same time, Geralson seems to have found something interesting in his hand. He raised his head and looked at Leo, who was "skillfully" operating, calm to the point that his cold face showed a little surprise for the first time, but it quickly turned into excitement, and even the mechanical fingers subconsciously moved, making a creaking sound.
"I didn't expect it, it's not small, but it's interesting, I hope you don't disappoint me,"
............
An hour later, the whole room was filled with all kinds of strange and unpleasant smells.
However, the three people in the real yàn room didn't care about anything at all.
Engaged in all kinds of highly destructive real yàn all year round, Geralson has long been able to automatically block all kinds of odors, and at this moment he is reading the questionnaire of the two, looking like he has no distractions.
In the corner of the platform, Lorsas was stirring the liquid in the crucible with great care, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, with a great sense of rhythm, and he didn't care about anything else.
As for Leo, he was carefully using the magic pen to draw the prepared enchantment on the steel shortsword.
This liquid is made up of the blood of the mountains, the powder of black iron, the fluid of corrosive insects, and pure water. It is highly corrosive and has good magic conduction, and can leave a magic circuit on the steel, which can be combined with the stimulation of the fire elemental heart to form a complete enchantment.
And now, it's the most critical and difficult part of the enchantment, drawing the magic circuit.
However, this kind of magic circuit is not even a basic magic circle, it can only be regarded as a part of the magic circle, and is used to achieve some of the simplest effects.
For example, the magic circuit that Leo is now drawing is used to control the elemental energy in the heart of the fire element, so that it can only flow within the circuit. This results in the effect of attacking with fire elemental attributes.
However, it is much more difficult to draw on a weapon than a flat parchment, and if the guide circuit is broken for some reason, the entire enchantment will fail, and even the weapon itself may be damaged, and it will no longer be able to withstand the enchantment.
The minutes and seconds passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was already 7:45, and there was only a quarter of an hour left before the final moment stipulated by Geralson.
But Leo and Lorsas had already noticed the time. Both are now putting their full energy into the final part of the assignment.
"Bang!"
A thick cloud of white smoke burst out of the cauldron.
Lothas's face was tense, and his hands were trembling slightly. According to the current situation, the explosion of white smoke is a conscription for the beginning of the transformation of matter, and the next thing to see if the color of the liquid will change.
It is possible to succeed. There was also a possibility of failure, and Laurthas had no confidence and could only turn up the flame a little and resign himself to fate. A qiē will be revealed in five minutes.
On the other side, the violent explosion did not distract Leo in the slightest, and the hand holding the pen was still as smooth as ever. It's just that the sweat oozing from his forehead shows that he is very tired now.
Drawing a magic circuit on metal consumes dozens of times more energy than on parchment. Fortunately, Leo's mental strength and body are much better than before, and he is finally able to persevere.
Right now, the mana return is ninety-five percent complete, and only a fraction of the blade is needed to complete the cycle.
"Squeak!"
The metal corroded by the enchanted liquid constantly emits clouds of smoke and pungent smell, leaving not very deep but very obvious marks, and when the enchantment dries and merges with the metal, the traces disappear, and the enchantment brand remains in the metal forever.
At this time, Lotus suddenly shouted excitedly: "Aha! changed color, turned purple, I succeeded!
His appearance at the moment, sweeping away the cold and arrogant image of the sun elf in the past, is completely like a child who has just received delicious candy.
"What a noise, put the potion in the bottle, I'll start checking now. Geralson let out a low snort, put away the questionnaire in his hand, and walked towards the real platform.
"Okay, teacher. Lothas didn't dare to be careless, but she couldn't hide her joy.
After all, it was the first time to try a potion that had never been made before, and it was a success, so anyone would be very excited.
While controlling the crucible and pouring the purple liquid into the potion bottle, Lothars secretly went to see Leo. Seeing this, he suddenly became even happier. Because Leo wasn't even done drawing the magic circuit.
"Hmph, I've finally won you once. The corners of Lotas's mouth curled, and he quickly filled the potion, waiting for Geralsson to examine it while continuing to watch Leo's enchantment.
In fact, Leo is not in a good situation right now, and he finds that he still underestimates the difficulty of drawing magic circuits on metal after all. Every metal streak could lead to failure, so he had to be careful and careful.
Seeing that there were only two centimeters left to be completed, his arm was already trembling slightly uncontrollably. Leo gritted his teeth and tried his best to maintain his steady, he definitely didn't want to fail, and he couldn't fail, because that would waste a precious opportunity that would never be available again.
1 centimeter, 9 millimeter, 8 millimeter......
Watching the tip of the magic pen move slightly, Lothas's heart also hung higher and higher, and he couldn't stop muttering silently: "It looks a little difficult, come on, you'd better not fail, get driven back, I don't want to stay here alone!"
Before he knew it, he had put Leo as an opponent in a very important position.
Geralson didn't look at Leo at all, but picked up the coagulant made by Lothas, and dropped a drop into the beaker he had prepared earlier.
This time, Lorsas was even more nervous, but the object of his nervousness had been transformed into himself. Because although the potion seems to have been successful, God knows what the effect will be, in case Geralson doesn't approve of it......
Lothas didn't dare to think further.
Fortunately, at this time, the liquid in the beaker began to become cloudy, and soon the condensed matter appeared in it.
"Whew!"
"Whew!"
Two successive gasps sounded in the real room, one was Lorsas, who was relieved, and the other was Leo, who had finally completed the magic circuit. (To be continued......)
