Lin Fan sat at the table, there were some things messily placed on the table, in addition to the alchemy codex that had been opened, there were some parchments with notes recorded, and there was a magic crystal in the far right corner of the table, which Lin Fan took from Sika's staff.

Two days had passed since he returned to the village from the Sunset Forest, and there had been no movement from the Blood Fang Castle, which made Lin Fan breathe a sigh of relief. It seems that things are not as bad as he thinks.

In the past two days, in addition to meditation, he has been carefully studying the alchemy codex left by Sika.

Lin Fan was just a little curious when he heard alchemy's eyes mention alchemy. But after seeing the Flame Wolf's spell scroll used by Sika and the great strength he unleashed, he found that it was a shortcut to strengthening himself and the village.

It is conceivable that if everyone in the village has a level 3 flame wolf spell scroll, even if the Bloodtooth Baron comes to the village in person, I am afraid that they will have to weigh their own strength.

Therefore, when Lin Fan found the alchemy codex on Sika's body, he could be said to be ecstatic.

There are two words 'Hainuo' in the lower right corner of each page of the alchemy codex, and Lin Fan guessed that this should be the original owner of this alchemy codex, but he didn't know if Lu Dao was a surname or a name. Judging from the old age of the parchment, he guessed that this alchemist named Haino was probably still alive.

It took two days to read through the alchemy codex, and Lin Fan began to understand it gradually from knowing nothing about alchemy. And the shock in his heart is getting deeper and deeper.

Alchemy was not as simple as he thought, it was a very large system, which could be said to include all the knowledge of spells.

A sentence on the alchemy codex left a deep impression on Lin Fan - the alchemist is the closest person to the truth!

At first, he thought it was just an arrogant statement, but as he learned about alchemy, he had to agree with it.

The mage is only the one who has mastered the summoning array and used the power of the elements, while the alchemist has begun to disassemble the summoning array and explore the source of the summoning array's power.

This is a group of people who are above the mage!

With this discovery, Lin Fan became more and more interested in alchemy.

And it is not easy to become an alchemist, you must first have strong enough elemental control, so that you can make achievements in alchemy. It took Sika more than ten years to get this alchemy codex, and it was precisely because his control was too low that even if he was given another few decades, he would not be able to break through the current bottleneck.

In addition to the limits of control, then you have to find a mentor and learn the alchemy formula. That's where the real hard part is.

Because every alchemist basically has outstanding talent and extraordinary strength, such a person will inevitably develop a high-minded and arrogant temper. If you are not talented enough, it will be difficult for them to choose.

Of course, before you can do that, you'll have to meet an alchemist with a discerning eye. Otherwise, even if you're a brilliant diamond, there's a good chance you'll end up in the dirt.

With the Mage's Eye, Lin Fan had enough confidence in his control, and with this alchemy codex, he believed that he would be able to become an alchemist in time.

Having obtained the alchemy recipes for the three spell scrolls, Lin Fan originally planned to try them out and see if he could start making them. But after looking at the three spell scroll production methods, he realized how ridiculous his idea was that every warrior in the village had a level 3 flame wolf spell scroll in his hand.

Because he doesn't have the material!

Even the simplest mana scroll requires the following materials: Level 1 Natural Demon Crystal, Light Demon Beast Skin, and Lemon Grass Powder. Even if Lin Fan didn't know much about the prices in this world, he could see that these things were worth a lot.

As for the materials of the Level 3 Flame Wolf Scroll, not to mention, a Level 3 Fire Demon Crystal discouraged Lin Fan, and he didn't have the confidence to kill a Level 3 Demon Beast now. Although he later discovered that the magic crystal embedded in Sika's staff was a level 3 magic crystal, he also did not have the other two materials.

Lin Fan finally understood what the alchemy codex said that if you want to become a powerful alchemist, you must first become a qualified businessman. This thing is not so much alchemy as it is money burning.

"Lin Fan ......"

Just when Lin Fan was saddened by the embarrassment of his skillful wife for the rice-free cooking, Xingsha and Tatari walked in side by side, and then he saw a firelight shooting towards him, and the muddy ball pounced on him at once, stretching out his crimson tongue and licking his face continuously, looking affectionate.

"Hun Ball, you're getting heavier again!"

Lin Fan smiled bitterly and pushed the ball away, the small beast that was only the size of a fist had now grown to nearly a foot long, and the fluff on his body began to gradually become hard. It's a bit of a bloody tiger.

"Ball Ball!"

Xingsha caught up and hugged the muddy ball, patted the muddy ball's buttocks, looked at Lin Fan puffed out his cheeks and said, "Obviously I feed it every day, but I still like you the most! It's really unfair, hum!"

Tatali and Lin Fan both laughed, Lin Fan put away the things on the table, looked at Xingsha and asked, "Xingsha, did you bring anything?"

"Hmm. Xingsha nodded, and carefully took out a piece of animal skin, which opened to reveal a large cloud of gray coarse salt.

"Lin Fan, what do you want salt for?" Xingsha handed the animal skin to Lin Fan and asked curiously.

Lin Fan didn't answer, turned around and threw the salt directly into the wooden barrel full of water next to him.

"Ahh Xingsha thought that Lin Fan had accidentally dropped the salt into the wooden barrel, and was taken aback, and wanted to pick up the salt in the wooden barrel that had not yet melted, but was stopped by Lin Fan.

"Lin Fan, pick it up! I finally got this salt from my grandmother. Xingsha bit his lip and said anxiously.

"Is this salt very valuable?" Lin Fan looked at Xingsha strangely.

"Of course, such a handful, you need more than a dozen good animal skins to get it!" Xingsha glanced at Lin Fan, and he still had to go fishing.

A flash of inspiration flashed in Lin Fan's mind, as if he had caught something, but he was troubled by Xingsha, he forgot about it again, grabbed Xingsha and said with a smile: "Xingsha, don't worry, I have my own use for these salts." I'll make you something to eat in a while. ”

Lin Fan had long thought about improving the food in the village, at least turning coarse salt into refined salt, he didn't want to eat that kind of black salt every day.

Xingsha was still young after all, and when he heard Lin Fan mention the delicious food, he didn't go to fish for salt anymore, blinked, looked at Lin Fan and said curiously: "Really, but what are you doing by throwing salt into the water, that salt is enough for us to eat for half a month." ”

He looked at the barrel next to him with pity, pursed his lips, and still remembered the salt.

"Don't look at it, you'll know when the time comes. ”

Lin Fan rubbed Xingsha's light blue short hair, smiled, took a piece of animal skin from the side and handed it to Tatari, "Tatari, you take this to the village chief, let her arrange some manpower and build it as soon as possible." ”
