Chapter 46 Principles of Alchemy
After reaching an agreement with Jiang Lan, Su and Mu naturally started the operation immediately.
I saw that the alchemy place used by Jiang Lan was actually the original hospitality hall in this house.
However, in the hospitality hall today, except for a dining table that is used as an operating table, all kinds of debris are discarded in other places.
And these debris themselves are actually all semi-finished products created by Jiang Lan in alchemy.
Seeing this, Su Mu not only did not bother the debris all over the ground, but also picked up a Qi lamp that was only half completed, and then asked in a very serious manner:
"If you don't consider more advanced alchemy objects, just making Qi Lanterns, how much can you make in a day?"
Jiang Lan was stunned when she heard this, as if she didn't expect that Su Mu's first problem was this.
However, seeing Su Mu's full confidence, Jiang Lan still answered truthfully:
"The production of Qi lamps is not complicated, and I still have a lot of materials left here. If I focus on making this item, I can make about seven of them a day."
But what is even more strange is that Su Mu still seemed a little dissatisfied with the number reported by Jiang Lan.
Even a little frowned and added again:
"You are probably not enough by yourself. We must have the speed of two people to ensure that in the worst case, we still earn enough money."
Su Mu said this, finally shifted his gaze from the semi-finished product in his hand, and then looked at Jiang Lan with a serious expression.
Then he said something more slowly, and it seemed that the dialogue was not so serious:
"You must also teach me how to make the first Qi lamp while making it. Only in this way can we achieve the safest purpose of... making money quickly!"
...
There is no doubt that Su Mu's series of actions have already made Jiang Lan suspicious of believing in the wrong person.
Although Jiang Lan himself had no choice but to say that alchemy is actually very simple.
But it is obvious that that statement is just a forced argument, and even Jiang Lan himself would not think that the fact is like this.
However, at this moment, Su Mu completely ignored Jiang Lan's confusion.
Instead, he turned around neatly, scraped a piece of parchment that had been used many times with a knife again, and began to draw a multi-faceted graphic on the parchment.
Seeing this, Jiang Lan was extremely conflicted in her heart, but she was still driven by curiosity and quietly looked at the figure depicted by Su Mu.
I saw that it was a cylindrical object, and if it was restored in the figure scale, it was almost the size that could be held with one hand.
And such a short stick seemed to be the Qi lamp in Su Mu's mouth.
Because on the cross-sectional figure of this stick, Su Mu also specifically marked where to make the lamp head, where to place energy, and even the metal arc pieces used for focusing are listed.
After Su Mu did all this, he handed the parchment to Jiang Lan directly and instructed him again:
"This size is already the limit I expected you to make. Just do it according to the scale shown. And I hope you can enlarge the brightness of this Qi lamp to several times the usual amount. Even if the Qi energy consumption is extremely high, it doesn't matter. As for the metal parts of the shell, I will polish it myself, so you don't have to worry about it at all."
While Su Mu was talking about these several explanations, he had already picked up the semi-finished products at his feet to the table one by one.
Then, with confidence, he encouraged for the last time:
"No problem, just do what I said. As for the process of learning alchemy, you don't have to worry too much."
"As long as you don't deliberately avoid it... I will be able to grasp it quickly!"
...
After a slight hesitation, Jiang Lan finally chose to take action immediately.
Whether it was Su Mu's still full of confidence or the thin blade that Su Mu deliberately put at Han Jun's hand, they all reminded Jiang Lan... what kind of determination Su Mu has!
Since even Su Mu dared to bet like this, Jiang Lan, who had no worries at all, naturally had no reason not to participate in this feast.
As Jiang Lan's fingertips were rhythmic, he quickly disassembled a semi-finished Qi lamp, allowing all the components to be revealed.
The internal structure of this most basic alchemy is actually not complicated, and there are only three components in total.
They are: crystal lamp heads used to illuminate, metal qi tanks that provide energy, and most importantly... magic circuits that stimulate light.
At this moment, what Jiang Lan removed from the semi-finished product was the stone crystals used as lamp heads and the metal Qi tank that could still be used.
And after connecting these two items to each other, the most important part of the production also ushered in:
Created with alchemy...the core that can inspire light!
After this step, Jiang Lan not only reversed her previous speed, but also thoroughly cleaned the desktop with great care. Then he slowly took out a solid block and explained to Su Mu in detail:
"This thing is actually the bone of the skeleton of the silence beast. Because the metal itself has a strong repulsion of magic, the means to kill the regeneration and reshaping of metal properties must be possessed by mages above the middle level. Therefore, low-level alchemists usually can only use other materials to attach magic."
As Jiang Lan said, he had already begun to resonate with his thinking. Su Mu, who was also a spellcaster, immediately felt a will to seek light begin to hover.
Until now, Jiang Lan was completely prepared before taking action.
Then he slowly picked up the engraving pen and immediately injected the essence into a sharp pen tip. Then, with the blessing of the resonance of thinking, he began to carve extremely meticulously.
However, it was Jiang Lan who was doing all this very seriously.
Su Mu, who was standing beside him, opened his mouth wide in surprise. He had an emotion called laughter and crying, which was already undepressed, and he wanted to bloom from Su Mu's face.
Because at this moment, Jiang Lan held the method of engraving the pen tightly, which was the posture of lifting the pen and writing.
And what he carved seriously was the cold word that all primary and secondary school students quoted in their compositions, and is the most familiar to everyone:
"The night gave me black eyes, but I used it to find light!"
...
Fortunately, Su Mu finally suppressed his inner distraction at this time and did not make any abnormal noise.
Jiang Lan himself was because the Qi lamp was asked by Su Mu to increase its brightness.
Now he is becoming more and more focused, improving his thinking resonance to the extreme, and injecting it into the animal bones through engraving.
Su Mu, who was standing aside, could clearly notice:
Just as Jiang Lan actually burned the Chinese characters representing magic to the beast bones, some changes between light and shadow began to shift around the beast bones.
It turns out that the foundation of alchemy is to permanently enforce a certain natural phenomenon onto an object.
After that, as long as the magic runes are activated with Qi again, this eternal natural phenomenon will also show various strange changes.
So there are... various alchemy tools, the bizarre special effects!
