Chapter 527: The Ultimate of Alchemy
"Oh?" Roland looked over, "why?"
"That's right, Your Majesty...... You don't know much about alchemy, so it's likely that you've been fooled. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ Info "Lettening hurriedly stopped Rayleigh, he was quite proud of himself, and he was a little disrespectful in front of Tifeko, not to mention the fourth prince, who was once considered unlearned. If you annoy the other party, I'm afraid everyone will suffer with it, "The art of alchemy is ever-changing, and each formula represents a new achievement, but not all of them are as dazzling as snow powder, and it is likely that it will not be directly transformed into a golden dragon, but it is the basis for the birth of another outstanding product." β
"Exactly," Rayleigh replied dissatisfied, "in the case of the snow powder, the ice in it is converted from dung, which in itself is an alchemical reaction. But in addition to making ice, it can also be mixed with other alchemical products to make snow powder, all of which require a long period of exploration and pondering. Even the most experienced alchemy master did not dare to assert that a certain reaction result was meaningless, Your Majesty, their value could not be measured by the golden dragon alone. He frowned and glared at Roland's chief, "If anyone dares to assure you so, then he must be a liar!"
"What do you think?" asked Roland, tilting his head.
The chief alchemist didn't look in a hurry, he first touched his beard, and then stroked his chest when no one spoke, "Your Majesty, they will say this because their understanding of alchemy is still at the scratching stage. I can prove to you that their formula is nothing new, and whether the results are useful or not is decided. β
As soon as these words came out, the alchemists took a breath in unison.
Lightning was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses, does this person know what he is talking about? He knows every alchemy formula well? What are you kidding! In the past two years, the Royal Capital Alchemy Association has discovered more than a dozen new formulas, and it will take several days just to look at them, and the other party dares to say that there is nothing new? At the same time, a burst of joy welled up in his heart, this man named Kaimo Stow is completely crazy, as long as he comes up with a formula that he can't say, it is tantamount to deceiving His Majesty!
The most reticent Chief Archer couldn't help it, and he said coldly, "How do you want to prove it?"
"It's very simple," Kaimo confidently walked up to the three of them, "You lay out the raw materials, and I'll tell you the alchemy results, how about it?"
Rayleigh laughed angrily, "Very good, there are all materials in the association, and they can be verified at any time, if you say something wrong, don't think you can hide it from Your Majesty like you did in Border Town!"
"What if I'm all right?"
"This can't be!" Archer shook his head repeatedly, "It's true that the alchemy formula may be repeated, but exhaustion is absolutely impossible - you underestimate alchemy!"
The other party showed a strange look, as if he was emotional, but also like pity, "It's not that I underestimate alchemy, but it's wrong." β
Lightening felt the corners of his forehead jump, "What did you say?"
"Let me ask first, what is alchemy in your eyes?" Kai Mo was unmoved, "chaotic, complicated, ever-changing, and difficult to fathom...... You don't know anything about alchemy, or the nature of all things. β
"What nonsense!" rebuked Rayleigh, "do you want to say that this sage's study is simple, orderly, and tendon-to-be, and if so, how is it possible to derive so many colorful substances that make every stone in this world unique?"
To Lightning's horror, the other party actually chuckled, "Ah, that's right...... It's simple, orderly, and tendoned to the end. β
"You-"
"As for why this world is so colorful, that's beyond the reach of alchemy," Kaimo said calmly, "In other words, it's a higher realm, and I've only just seen the threshold." β
"That's enough," Lightnin pulled Rayleigh, whose beard was about to stand up, "you take your disciples to prepare the alchemy materials first, any ridiculous remarks will be self-defeating in the face of the facts." β
Otherwise, if he continues, he will not be able to scold Kaimo, and at the same time, His Majesty Roland, who recruited him as the chief, will also be scolded together.
This man is indeed a madman, and alchemy is simple and orderly, and Lightnin thought in his heart with hatred, he must let the other party taste a profound lesson.
......
A long table in the center of the refining hall was cleared out, on which were several vials and three sheets of white paper with the names of the ingredients written on them.
After some discussion, the three chiefs decided to each choose a formula for Kemo Stow to prove his claim. In order to leave the impression that His Majesty did not deliberately make things difficult, and at the same time avoid Kai Mohu from messing around, the three of them also wrote out the names of the raw materials, as for whether the other party recognized it or not, it was none of their business.
When everything was ready, Lightnin looked at His Majesty Roland's Chief Alchemist and said in a deep voice, "Please start." β
The latter confidently walked over to the first blank sheet of paper on the table.
"Saltpeter and alum calcination?" he glanced at the contents of the paper, looking slightly surprised, "You've also discovered the two-stone acid method." The products are a variety of solids and acids, the latter of which can corrode metals. As he answered, he picked up his pen and wrote down a long list of symbols on the paper.
Achill's face suddenly became very ugly, "It's ...... True. β
The alchemists on the lookers turned their heads one after another, probably no one expected that the formula chosen by the first chief would be answered in less than a breath.
"Quiet!" said Lightning, "there are two more questions!"
"He just happened to get it right," Rayleigh stomped, "and the second formula wasn't so lucky." By the way, what are those things he wrote on paper?"
He shook his head, a bad premonition rose in his heart, and the development of the facts quickly deviated from the expectations of the two, and Kaimo didn't even stay at the table for too long before he told the result, and pointed out the trap set by Rayleigh, "Is it alum acid and copper flakes? If the acid content is too small, this reaction cannot be carried out, and if the concentration is high, the heat can make the liquid turn blue, and bubbles will come out at the same time." β
Lightning's problem didn't bother him either, "Take out the Nether Stone, and there are no other conditions?" Kemo grabbed the bottle and shook it, looking at the white solid soaked in water, "This thing is quite rare, it is easy to spontaneously combust without fire when placed in the air alone, producing white smoke, and finally leaving a white solid, am I right?"
"Uh......" Lightning was completely shocked, this thing was a strange item in exchange for communicating with the alchemist of the Wolf Heart Country, and very few people had seen it, let alone told its characteristics!
"You can also ask questions," Kemo turned to look at the onlookers, "and I'll prove to you that what I'm saying is true." β
The crowd suddenly boiled.
"What about the mixture of ochre and charcoal?"
"If the temperature is high enough, you can get iron, which is essentially a special kind of iron ore. β
"Why is the color of the glass obtained by smelting sand and stone different, didn't you say that alchemy has not changed?"
"Because the impurities in it are different, the crystal glass needs the purest grit. β
"Master Kaimo, I have a question!"
"And me!"
Lightnin was surprised to find that the atmosphere in the hall was rapidly changing, and the alchemists changed from asking questions to asking for advice, and even salutation was also carried with respect. He realizes that Kemo is becoming the chief in everyone's minds.
"Shut up!" Rayleigh suddenly exclaimed, "These are just formulas that the Alchemy Guild has long figured out, and if you really know all the formulas, then make a list of formulas that no one has ever seen - such as the ultimate pursuit of alchemy!"
This...... No, Lightnin swallowed, believing that all the alchemists present were in the same mindβafter all, the quest was nothing more than a legend.
But he couldn't believe that the other party actually raised the corners of his mouth.
Facing the gazes of the members of the Alchemy Society, Kemo Stoll smiled, "Do you mean that some stones turn into gold? Of course, let me demonstrate it." (To be continued.) )
