Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 107: Otherworld Recruitment
“What an amazing talent! He has already mastered carving in such a short time.

And he even successfully cast a spell, creating a real golem..."

Not long after, in the communications room.

Frost praised Roy with some surprise.

"But don't be too proud. The golem you've created is merely a living fossil of the lowest order. It can't even be called 'black iron.' Furthermore, it needs to be repeatedly recharged with living energy. If used for too long, it might even become completely useless. Do you know why?"

"Because I have no soul?"

Roy thought for a moment and asked tentatively.

"Yes, what you can give to the golem now is only the witchcraft energy of activation, which is forced!
That comes with your 'cognition' of creatures like centaurs, which is essentially using your subconscious mind to simulate the soul.

So the next step is to try to inject real soul into it!
But a cold stone statue isn't alive, so how could it have a soul?"

Frost was very patient and persuasive.

"Could it be that we need to extract the soul of a real horse and infuse it with it?"

Roy guessed.

"Undead warhorses are also forged using this method. They require warhorse souls as the main ingredient."

"True, but a centaur... a horse soul alone is not enough."

Frost said.

"It also needs a human soul to provide sufficient intelligence!"

Roy listened and frowned.

But fortunately, this is just one of the methods.

"This method was the original method of creating Centaur golems. It was also an inefficient method that was resorted to due to the scarcity of Centaurs.

Usually, the wizarding world calls it a Chimera Soul, which means a 'synthetic soul'!"

A Chimera is a mythical monster with a lion's head, a goat's body, and a snake's tail.

Some alchemists in the wizarding world also call the phenomenon of carrying multiple bloodlines or soul characteristics Chimera bloodline or Chimera phenomenon.

This gave rise to concepts such as "synthetic beast" and "chimera".

This naturally also includes alchemical life operations such as man + horse = centaur.

Frost continued, "After conquering some worlds that produce centaurs, we gained soul resources with true centaurs as their spiritual source.

This is called 'Natural Soul'.

Later, the true "creation science" method was used to simulate and create the intelligence of monsters and deduce the means of artificial life, which was called "simulated soul" or "intelligent body".

The spell model of "Animation" already includes this part, but it is only the most basic application."

Roy suddenly understood.

Similar to the mechanism of activating iron chains to strangle enemies, it simulates the hunting action of snakes.

This is actually the category of "simulated soul" or "intelligent body" that comes with "activation".

Those magical alchemical props also follow this route.

Frost said, "The above three methods correspond to different levels and stages of development of production processes. There is no inherent distinction between high and low, good and bad. It all depends on the specific scenario."

Roy asked curiously, "Teacher, which one do you mainly study?"

Frost said: "It's the second type...

I told you that my wizard motto is equal exchange, which actually involves the refining and transformation of life and soul.

Using natural souls is actually the most convenient.

You should first try to study biology to enhance your understanding of the Centaurs, and gradually increase the proportion of spirituality you infuse into your spells.

When I have the chance, I will give you some real Centaur souls...

Oh, there’s one more thing.”

Frost said to him.

"I should have told you before that I am the governor of the colony of Knightland, and I was appointed by Wuta to guard this low-magic world." Roy nodded.

He already knew this when they first met.

Frost said: "The indigenous barbarians have recently launched another offensive.

I originally had a group of students and subordinates under me, but a wizard's service term just ended recently, and I have other important research on hand, so I can't free up my hands for the time being.

If you want, you can develop followers up to 10 people, including intermediate apprentices and senior apprentices.

Bring it along when the time comes."

"Teacher, isn't it too early to talk about this now?" Roy said helplessly.

"I'm just telling you in advance so you can prepare. A genius like you will be promoted quickly."

Frost said as a matter of course.

That's not necessarily true...

Roy muttered to himself.

Just like Sophia and Oren both believed that they relied on their superior talent...

But in fact, what he wanted to say was that you really think too highly of me.

If I hadn't used the magic potion "Gift of the Holy Lake", I would have stayed where I was for the rest of my life.

Even going backwards for you to see!

But Frost was so sure, that Roy had no choice but to agree.

……

"A chance to travel to another world?"

"Low Magic World, Knightland?"

The day after communicating with the teacher, Roy gathered everyone in the sculpture class he often went to recently.

This includes Andov and Niya, whom I have known for more than two years, and Olinda, Milena and Winter, whom I have known for less time.

Lecter, Chikatilo, and Dahmer from the Human Creation Club.

Recently, I have been communicating more frequently with sculpture enthusiasts such as Stodson.

Those who are less familiar are the original connections of Sophia and others, as well as the friends of these people, whether they are known or not.

They are all here.

Except for Renyon.

Roy knew that he would not come, so he did not ask him.

"Yes, this is both an opportunity and a challenge. Anyone who is interested in stepping out into the starry sea and making progress can consider it.

I can't guarantee that I can help you become an elite or even a formal wizard, but I can provide basic freedom and security, so becoming a high-level apprentice should be no problem.

Of course, if you want to stay in the country and follow the established procedures, I won’t force you to do so.”

"That's it..."

Everyone had their own ideas, and after discussing them, they gradually came up with an idea.

Niya, Milena, Lecter, Chikatilo and others all gave up this opportunity.

Damo from the Human Making Club showed great interest in this, and Stuart from the carving class also wanted to give it a try.

Winter was worried that as a mid-level apprentice, he didn't have any special skills that Roy could use, so he carefully tested the situation. As a result, he got Roy's consent and happily joined.

Even Olinda was attracted by Roy's generous promises and joined his team.

"Andov, what took you so long to think about it?" After everyone expressed their opinions, Roy frowned and looked at Andov.

Andov looked conflicted, as if hesitating and worried about something.

But in the end, he said, "I'll join."

　Ten thousand words updated, please give me all kinds of help!
