Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 617 World Beacon (2 in 1)

Two months later.

Outpost, west.

It has been named Mercury Valley and is temporarily assigned to Roy's location.

Roy was in between missions and resting in the valley.

But he was not idle. Instead, he sorted out his harvest and pondered his new bronze-level talent [Elemental Life].

Today, I have finally digested it.

For the time being, Roy only managed to create an element similar to fire, water, and so on.

But in essence, it is more explosive, flammable, fragile, volatile, and has a short life cycle.

He called it the "Mayfly Elemental"!
Mayflies are short-lived creatures, perhaps only a few hours.

But in reality, the time that the "Mayfly Elemental Body" can exist is much shorter than this.

It's just a few seconds or a dozen seconds.

They have no intelligence and no emotions, and are typical Black Iron-level creations, but they possess all the abilities and properties of humanoid elementals.

This should be considered the most basic application of this ability.

Not long after, Roy came to the open space outside with a beaker in his hand.

Atidiya came forward and said, "Lord Roy."

"Find me some meat mushroom demons."

Roy gave an order.

This was said to the head of the girl floating beside him.

"Yes!"

A moment later, a white figure wearing leather armor walked over and stood there motionless.

Roy took a look and poured out the solution in the beaker.

puff!
As the purple liquid poured out, a large amount of unstable thunder elements precipitated from it, turning into a purple thunder ball the size of a millstone, emitting lightning light.

It floated in mid-air, making a crackling sound while emitting tiny flashes of lightning.

When the experimental mushroom demon approached, suddenly, a beam of lightning crossed a distance of more than 10 feet and hit the mushroom demon.

Suddenly, everything turned black.

The witchcraft energy in the Mushroom Demon was defeated, and in the blink of an eye, he fell straight down as if he was killed.

"Lord Roy, what is this?"

Atidiya said with some curiosity.

"This is an unstable thunder spirit. I have been able to add the spell model for creating them into the potion, turning it into a mode similar to the 'potion casting' that I studied before!

This time, many missing puzzle pieces are finally complete!"

Roy gave a brief explanation and continued to control the Mushroom Demon to pounce on the thunder ball.

In an instant, a ball of thunder exploded.

Multiple lightning bolts shot out at the same time, unleashing a terrifying attack.

After it disappeared completely, a group of flesh-mushroom demons were left in its place, lying there and dead.

Potion casting is a subset of item casting, and now that he has mastered various abilities such as elemental perception and elemental harmony, he can finally dissolve the corresponding models and elemental forces into them.

This is a mode similar to scroll storage, but it is achieved through "Potions"!

……

After this, a few days passed.

Roy continued to improve and gradually finalized the successful research at hand.

Finally, several powerful and extremely practical "Mayfly Elementals" were produced.

"Hydra", "Thunderbolt Ball", "Exploding Thunderball", "Exploding Fireball", "Exploding Frostball"...

Among them, some are upgraded versions of the previous "Flame Blast", and some are combined with the new talent "Elemental Life".

But more than that, it is the result of alchemical witchcraft that integrates several new technologies.

Among them, Roy personally likes the "Hydra".

Its effect is to summon a fiery python with multiple heads, which stands in place like a turret and continuously spews explosive fireballs.

Its spell model is fixed, and its specific power is determined by the energy applied to it, so it has great flexibility.

If one is willing, one might be able to create a giant fire snake that is over a hundred meters long, which can continuously spit out three-level witchcraft and blow up a hill with one shot.

Alternatively, you can add special effects such as range enhancement, continuous burning, etc. to the fireballs that are spewed out.

However, its standard model is a first-level sorcery, which generally means spewing a standard "fireball".

If you want to add characteristics, you have to work hard on the model and materials.

That will be very in-depth content.

Roy actually still misses the "nuclear grenade" he used in the Mage Tower.

But that kind of thing requires a lot of precious resources.

Only this kind of elemental medicine that can be mass-produced can be used for daily consumption.

Moreover, the simpler and more crude it is, the better it works!

To test this, Roy made several experimental items to add to his own personal "store imprint".

It's a good opportunity to test this new weapon during this plane war.

……

Mayfly Elemental Summoning Potion.

There is such a thing?"

Some familiar apprentices and low- and mid-level wizards soon discovered something.

Today, the second-level wizard Roy has become well-known here.

After all, he is a rare mid-level spellcaster, and he is also good at refining Zabir magic gold. The blood mercury, star iron, shining gold and other items he provides are all top-quality.

At that moment, some wizards or apprentices came to him and asked for a deal.

As a result, the test received rave reviews.

This thing was exactly as Roy expected, greatly supplementing the ecological niche of spell scrolls that the wizards lacked.

It's called the "unstable" "Mayfly Elemental Body," but in reality, it's quite convenient for long-term storage.

The real "instability" begins after the "potion casting".

Moreover, the materials required, the techniques used, and other aspects all conform to the principles of witchcraft.

Wizards don't buy into the arcane principles and magical industry at all, and still use the witchcraft principles of "induction" and "contamination" to analyze.

By using the "witch making soup" method, you can make a good "Mayfly Elemental Body". It is so convenient and easy to use!
There were no patent laws or technology protections in the wizarding world, so for a time, many people imitated and tried to decipher and develop their own technology.

Even the Seven Towers Alliance was alarmed and sent envoys to find out what was going on.

He was a second-level wizard named Gwenvid, who happened to come to this world to investigate and monitor the attack.

Roy was also quite helpless about this.

How did it attract attention when I was just tinkering with it?
However, he still had to give face to the alliance, so he received the envoy and gave a brief explanation.

After listening to this, the messenger said, "From what I understand, Your Excellency seems to be pricing these things based on spell scrolls."

“Yes, each bottle ranges from over a hundred magic stones to several thousand, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands.

This is mainly determined by factors such as the difficulty of refining, material consumption, and functional effects."

"Then, I wonder if you are willing to sell this knowledge of witchcraft?"

He suddenly made a suggestion.

******
"For sale..." Roy was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the alliance would want to acquire it.

Gwenwynd said: “Your Excellency should know that our side is different from the Arcane Empire on the wizard’s side.

Our witchcraft advocates the intention of the power of belief.

Our wizards pursue absolute freedom.

After learning about the existence of this kind of witchcraft, many people will definitely try to develop it on their own, and some will definitely succeed."

Roy nodded.

This is true.

The dissemination of knowledge in the wizarding world should actually be compared to countries, not individuals.

There is a widespread sharing of principles and independent development of technology among wizards.

It is also very easy to have duplicate research.

If I really want to make money and earn magic stones, I can use sulfur and mercury to refine various magic gold products.

But if you can gain certain benefits from this knowledge, it is also a good choice.

"What benefits will I get if I choose to sell?"

After thinking for a while, Roy asked.

"What do you want?" Gwenwynd asked.

"An equivalent piece of knowledge, or perhaps some special resources..."

It's really not easy to put a price on this kind of thing. Roy thought for a while before tentatively proposing.

"For example, the location of low-level worlds or other undeveloped primitive worlds."

He intended to pave the way for testing the "Apostle Set" and the power related to divine magic.

After the messenger left, he spent several days contacting senior management and finally gave a clear answer.

"A location beacon for a first-level low-magic world, and ownership recognized within the alliance!

If you agree, the Alliance will pay the above price in exchange for the knowledge you possess!"

The so-called ownership is actually just a false name.

That low-magic world also has indigenous people, and there is no effective rule established by the alliance.

It just "discovered" it and has the beacon for transmission.

If Roy wants to truly own that world, he has to attack and rule it himself.

At that time, you will have to pay taxes and fulfill corresponding obligations.

Moreover, you may encounter interference from wizards, demons, or other powerful races and forces at any time.

But this kind of thing is still valuable.

Because it may involve a lot of land, resources, and the souls of intelligent life!

Gwenwynd then gave a brief introduction to the place.

It was a place that had not yet been named, but it was basically clear that the world level was only level one, a very low-level low-magic world.

Judging from the energy of the earth veins and the will of the world, it basically produces no witchcraft resources, and it is even more impossible to condense magic crystal ore.

The only thing worth mentioning is that there are tens of millions of humans living there, as well as low-level magical races including non-human races such as gnolls, lizardmen, and fishmen.

“I suggest that you should be promoted to level three before considering developing there.

Even a first-level low-magic world is not something that ordinary wizards can handle."

Finally, Gwenwynd concluded.

Roy nodded.

He understood what the other party meant.

The resistance of the indigenous people, or even the struggles of wizards or demons, are secondary.

What really matters is that he doesn't have the "Net of All Spirits" under his control, and it's difficult to ask a great wizard to help...

It would be much easier if you were promoted to a senior position.

"If we don't set up the 'Net of All Souls', not only will we be unable to restrict the will of the world, but we may also waste souls!
Spiritual power overflows into the astral void, and a large number of souls enter the great cycle of the universe, which may also attract the attention of various external beings.

We have to cover it up first before we can consider it.

So, do I have what it takes to learn the "Net of All Spirits" now?

Even if it's not spread across the entire planet, but just a copycat version covering a certain area...

Like the mysterious barrier technique that the high-level wizard Hisaliya once cast in Shalo City...

Can you learn it?"

After the transaction was completed, Roy held the crystal ball that sealed the world beacon in his hand and fell into deep thought.

At this stage, I am already able to come into contact with the "Soul-Binding Rope", perhaps my soul characteristics are sufficient.

But practicing spells, necromancy, and even astrology at the same time is not a solution for the time being.

It takes a long life of gradual exposure and understanding to master it.

So, I put away the world beacon for the time being and continued to think about [Elemental Life].

……

During this period, various news came in, basically all of which were about the wizards' alien armies conquering cities and winning victory after victory.

This brought back a lot of special resources to the outpost camp, further enriching the variety of resources sold in public warehouses and shops.

But Roy had no time to take care of it for the time being.

He suddenly realized that the new talent he had acquired was more likely to come from the magician Muberan, rather than the brave Nicodo as he had previously thought.

He obtained several books from the other party's relics, and used the memory stones he refined to absorb memories and experience, and gradually synthesized skill stones.

Another day, in the cave.

While setting up a new type of magic formation, Roy also made new attempts.

As "Wizard Roy's Alchemy Box" floated up, one gem after another representing memories and experiences were thrown into it.

Powerful energy burst forth, and a reaction occurred inside that was like a star exploding in a miniature universe.

The alchemy box burst out with brilliant light, and the cave wall was illuminated by countless flowing runes.

Suddenly, these visions stopped abruptly.

A crystal clear transparent diamond the size of a pigeon egg rose from it and slowly appeared in front of him.

"Skill Stone (Level 2)...

"Teleportation!"

This is a travel spell of the conjuration school, allowing the caster to instantly teleport to a known location, ranging in distances of hundreds or thousands of kilometers (but not across planes).

This spell allows the caster to carry willing creatures and objects, but is subject to weight restrictions, and there is a certain degree of error and possibility of failure in the transmission.

All of these depend on the caster's familiarity with the destination, and when casting the spell, a clear impression of the destination is required, as dangerous areas may cause accidents.

The wizards in this world have established a city return scroll transmission system with "dimensional beacons" as nodes, and they don't rely much on this kind of thing.

But as the saying goes, "It's always good to have many skills." If you can really master it, it is still a very good classic skill.

"The spell model contained in this thing is the basis for a series of related spells such as "Advanced Teleportation", "Alternate World Teleportation", "Astral Projection", and "Gate to Another World".

Even in "Summoning Magic", most rune arrays and wizard arrays are related to it.

Going further down, there are "Blink", "Dimension Jump" and so on.

It can be said to be a link between the past and the future, and it is extremely crucial!"

Roy knew this famous classic spell, and his eyes lit up.
