Chapter 479: Refining Dragon Crystal
According to Henry the Cynic, as long as you can comprehend magic on your own through magic books in the Frankish continent, you can escape the supervision of the Supreme Magic Senate and use it freely. Then the Supreme Magical Senate recognized the independent status of this magician and allowed him to establish a new magic guild.
On the Frankish continent, in addition to the Supreme Magical Senate behind the Frankish Empire, there are also several relatively large independent magic guilds. These magic guilds actually broke through the control of the Supreme Magic Patriarch over the classics, comprehended new magic, and gave birth to an independent magic system from these magics. And with this system of magic comes a new level of productivity and a powerful military.
All of these independent magic guilds are no longer subject to the Supreme Magic Elder Council, but are directly loyal to the royal family. The guild leader will receive the title of lord from the emperor of the empire, become a magical noble, and have the guild magic knights, and fight for the empire when it is threatened.
These independent magical guilds were also the cornerstone of the Frankish Empire's reliance on parity with the Supreme Magical Senate. At the same time, the Supreme Magical Elders will also let their outstanding magic apprentices open magic guilds affiliated to the Supreme Elder Council throughout the empire to counterbalance the independent magic guilds and maintain their monopoly in the field of magic. For example, the Aquitaine Magic Guild is a guild under the Supreme Elder Council, and it is a very pure believer in the Book of the Sage.
Of course, there is also a unique existence - the Forbidden Spell Magic Senate. These geniuses became the main targets of the Supreme Senate's killing and suppression because they comprehended the Book of Fools, a book that the Senate had designated as a cult. And the Forbidden Magic Senate thus despised the existence of the Supreme Senate and vowed to replace it.
It is precisely because of the existence of the forbidden magic senate that the supreme senate has to unite all the forces that can be united, thus giving the empire the opportunity to develop an independent magic guild, so that magic blooms in the empire and shows unprecedented prosperity.
Every sentence of Henry's narrative is impregnated with dissatisfaction and contempt for the High Senator's control of magic, repeatedly and explicitly implying that it is not his fault that he himself is an archmage and a lich, but that the world is wrong!
Lei Changye naturally knew this little Jiujiu about him. However, of course, he knows the iron law that monopoly hinders the development of productive forces. Judging from this iron law, the existence of the Forbidden Magic Senate has indeed made a remarkable contribution to the flourishing of magic on the continent of the Frankish Empire. But...... Necromancy is outrageous! This is the evil result of not being regulated and unchecked. There is nothing more than this.
However, taking advantage of the forbidden spell magic senator to toss here, Lei Changye can not only establish a Tang merchant station in the Frankish Empire, but even have the opportunity to become a lord and open his own magic guild, which is very comfortable. He can integrate into the local cultural circle through the situation of magic, subtly spread the Taoism and culture of the Tang Dynasty, build his own power within the empire, and firmly control the end of the Silk Road in his own hands.
Lei Changye silently recited the forbidden spell magic senate several times in his heart. This special existence, he needs to deal with it well, neither let it sit big, nor let it disappear. Relying on this group of arrogant and arrogant sons of heaven, he wants to play Europe.
"I'll talk about the Magic Guild later, and now tell me about the method you have learned to refine dragon crystals. Lei Changye did not show his attitude, but just changed the topic.
"Yes, master. At this moment, Henry was already convinced by Lei Changye. Lei Changye had defeated him, subdued him, and even freed him from the shackles of the Lich's body. These made him awe-inspired, terrified, and even a little grateful, but these were not enough for him to admire.
But after reading the magic primer books that Henry had studied countless times, he actually broke through the magic ban of the Senate and directly used the new water array, this kind of talent and knowledge really crushed his pride. He served.
"Master, I...... The dragon crystal refining method I use is to first melt the dragon crystal into small dragon crystals, and then bless the dragon crystals with a high-level magic array that summons flames, the Fire Rain Hexagram Star Array, and rely on the summoning flame characteristics of the Fire Rain Array to refine the fire magic elements in the dragon crystals. Henry had a hint of genuine trepidation at this moment. This was the first time since he became an archmage.
"That's it......" Lei Changye pouted, this method is very simple and crude, and it doesn't feel very reliable, "How efficient is the refining?"
"I'm ashamed, the magic power I consume can only reach about one to one to five compared to the refined fire magic elements, and coupled with the extremely high loss of the Fire Rain Six-Pointed Star Array, it can basically only be maintained at a one-to-one exchange ratio. Moreover, because the precious resistance value of the dragon crystal itself was depleted in the refining process, the result of refining was a loss. Henry said ashamedly.
"It's not just a loss, it's just a burn of money. Lei Changye's eyelids jumped. This is equivalent to burning a whole box of silver to slag, and the magic obtained and the magic lost are basically the same, so it's still a fart!
"No...... However......" Seeing Lei Changye's gradually changing face, Henry also felt embarrassed, so he had to franticly save his respect, "For a magician who doesn't know fire magic, refining the magic elements in the fire dragon spar can allow him to use fire magic with strong combat effectiveness, which can also be regarded as a way to enhance a magician's combat effectiveness." ”
"One pound of dragon spar is worth 5,000 livres, that's 500 pounds of gold, hire a team of fire magicians to fight for you, isn't he fragrant?"
"Oh......" Henry didn't count for a moment, his mind was in a mess. As an archmage, he is no longer sensitive to money.
"Starting today, we will suspend the experiment of refining dragon spar. You...... Do you have any experience in making magic tools containing dragon crystals?" asked Lei Changye.
"Yes!" Henry hurriedly said in a panic, seeing that he was about to lose his usefulness, and he had to fight for performance to maintain his human form, "It also requires dragon crystals to achieve the fusion between dragon crystals and magic metals." In both the Book of Fools and the Book of Sages, there are magic arrays made of magic weapons. The one I use more easily is the Forbidden Spell Circle, the Alchemist's Sigh Circle. ”
"Oh, that sounds pretty good. Lei Changye suddenly became interested.
"The Alchemist's Sigh Array is a magic array used to exchange with the demon world for an equivalent value, I usually put 500 carats of dragon crystals and magic metals used to make magic weapons into the center of the array, supplemented by a large amount of magic injection, dragon crystals and magic gold are fused and changed in the formation, forming various random forms. Henry recounted quickly.
"It's a bit like a kryptonite card draw?!" Lei Changye thought silently.
"However, the vast majority of fused magic weapons are not very ideal. For example, a ring that tightens as soon as you wear it on your hand, a staff that uses fire magic that consumes only half of its mana but is reduced to one-tenth of its power, and a large sword that changes time and space when you attack, making you have an extra sword in an instant......"
"Hey, that's not bad. Lei Changye hurriedly said.
"But the accuracy of your attacks will be reduced by 100 percent. Henry spread his hands helplessly.
"So...... This formation is called the Alchemist's Sigh?" Lei Changye exhaled.
"Yes. Because of the principle of equivalent exchange, the exchange of mana and finished products will be activated in the magic circle, and the magic power you inject will be consumed to be offered to the demon world, and the quality of the finished product will be determined by the magic power you consume. But...... The Demon Realm itself is the source of magic, and they are very picky about magic. Not the magic of a fresh and amazing purity, they won't like it. So...... Even the magic provided by a great mage like me is difficult to enter the eyes of the demon realm. ”
"It seems that the biggest use of dragon crystal at the moment is still to make anti-magic materials and exchanges. Lei Changye muttered to himself.
"Yes, master. That's why I haven't touched the dragon spar in the Crystal Dragon Demon Castle. Henry breathed a sigh of relief.
"Isn't there an alchemist who has invented a more powerful alchemy circle?" asked Lei Changye in disbelief.
"Master, this Alchemist's Sigh Array is the most powerful alchemy array I have found all over the continent. In fact, if you are not afraid of consumption and refine more than a certain number of times, the Demon World will occasionally produce some more practical boutiques. For example, the magic sword, which can add frost power to attacks. Henry thought for a moment and said.
"Oh, have you ever refined it?"
"No, I just heard from the alchemist who taught me this formation. Henry spread his hands, "This is an alchemist who is a hundred times crazier than me, who once used nearly a hundred catties of dragon crystals to refine the magic weapons that dominate the world, and has really refined some priceless fine products, so he has become a guest of honor of the lords of the major city-states." ”
"......" Lei Changye shook his head again and again. How do you listen to it, how do you look like a big guy with real fire in krypton. He didn't want to relive the horror of the Blue Star Plane being dominated by 648 one by one.
Because of Henry's frank confession, Lei Changye rewarded him with continuing to research more practical methods of refining dragon spars in the magic experiment base, but he could no longer give him physical operations. He encouraged Henry to document his ideas before giving them to him for review.
At the same time, Lei Changye asked Henry to jump back and forth between the two paintings again. When Henry returned to being a librarian, he had eight new magical texts in his hands, all of which were follow-up chapters to the Book of Fools.
Lei Changye took these eight books with satisfaction, made the immortal hidden map, and returned to the secret room of the Boat Palace to continue reading. Although the hope was very slim, he felt that the author of the Book of Fools should have also encountered the problem of dragon crystals, and perhaps he would have some different opinions. Through his own thinking, Lei Changye discovered a very interesting question, how did the dragon crystal absorb the magical energy in the air in the Teutonic Forest?
