Arad's Sword

Chapter 448

Although the task was completed, Midi didn't have any free time in the next few days.

He wants to use his authority to mobilize a lot of resources to make the potion of the essence of darkness to improve his cultivation.

He still needs to find ways to refine potions in order to hit a higher level of psychic powers.

The most important thing is that he must get started with the alchemy circle and the alchemy mechanism in just a few days.

In alchemy, as opposed to "pharmacy", this is a branch called "mechanics".

There used to be experts in this field by Midi's side.

For example, Wells, who is a mechanic by profession, the fourth son of the Feifan family, or "White Snake" Emile, a genius designer of flying battleships.

However, although he has close contacts with these two alchemists of the Mechanics branch, with Midi's current background, the gap between them and the two of them is still too large.

Fortunately, in this dark region, the level of mechanics is not high, at least it cannot be compared with the sea of ​​clouds in the sky where airships and air battleships are popularized.

Therefore, combined with the experience of being a first-class adventurer in the previous life, coupled with psychic powers and the guidance of Rotes, Midi is still sure that he can become a "first-class mechanic" in a short time.

If not, he'll make himself look like a top-notch mechanic.

"This is it." Looking at the huge stalagmite in front of her, Midi took a deep breath.

Surrounding this huge stalagmite, there are large and small warning circles. Not only that, but four towers have been built in its four directions, east, west, north, south, and each tower has a mage stationed there, guarding day and night. .

In addition, under the stalagmite, there are several teams of heavily armed lizard knights patrolling back and forth, even in the eyes of Emidi, there is no flaw in it for a while.

Here is the important place of the Death Scorpion's family, the library tower.

For a tribe with a small population and a lack of resources, the resource itself is the most important thing. Therefore, in the Tarantula tribe, the alchemy workshop will become a "family powerhouse".

However, for the first family of Menzoberranzan City, their vision and ambitions are obviously far greater. Therefore, the place of inheritance like the library tower is the "family important place" they really value.

Being here, Midi really felt solid.

However, this feeling did not make him even a little bit nervous, on the contrary, it made him look forward to the books in the library tower.

"I don't know, what kind of mechanics books will there be?" Recalling the drawings of the unbelievably complicated air battleships that he had seen in the sea of ​​​​clouds in the sky, Midi thought in his heart, and then strode forward. go.

"Stop!" After taking a few steps, a stern voice sounded immediately.

At the same time, Midi's psychic powers also keenly sensed that dozens of places around her had strong fluctuations in magic power, and locked herself.

The defense of the Death Scorpion is not just for display.

However, Midi's identity as a high-level alchemist is not just for display.

Hearing this scolding, he didn't stop. Instead, he took out a mithril-made death scorpion badge with a jewel inlaid in the center from his pocket, and directly displayed it.

"I'm a high-level alchemist in the alchemy studio, and I'm here to look up information." Midi said calmly.

"High-ranking alchemist?" The person on the other side was obviously surprised, but then, Midi's white skin and round ears immediately reminded them of the gossip that had been circulating these days.

"He is the human alchemist!" A lizard knight reined in his mount and exclaimed.

"Yes, the guy who won ten volcanic potions from Kanis." Another person immediately echoed.

"I heard that this guy was brought by Hawke from the bonfire party, how many strong people did he kill?"

"And there was a conflict with that Simon of the Red Blood Bat Family."

Everyone looked at Midi's round ears and said in a hurry.

Midi, who has been nestling in the alchemy laboratory for the past few days, suddenly heard all kinds of gossip about herself.

The most outrageous among them is the statement that he became the lover of Verna, the high priest of the black dragon.

But obviously, if Midi really tried to explain, it would only get worse and worse.

"Enough." The captain of the lizard knight finally couldn't stand it any longer, and immediately yelled again. Then, he manipulated the mount under his feet to jump lightly, and immediately came to Midi.

"Human, it's fine for you to go in, but don't blame me for not reminding you that the knowledge in this library tower can't just be browsed casually." The knight captain looked at the other party firmly and said so.

"Thank you very much for the reminder." Midi nodded, and then, under the watchful eyes of a group of lizard knights, walked in directly.

Different from the tense atmosphere outside the tower, the interior of the library tower is quiet and the space is huge, but there are not many people inside.

Because, as the knight captain said, becoming a "high-level alchemist" is just a qualification to enter it, but if you want to read those profound works that the family has collected for thousands of years, you need another thing——

Contribute points.

Only by paying enough contribution points can one obtain the right to read books, and one must be in this library tower, and the time is only a few hours at most.

This is to prevent someone from copying the book after taking it out, so the death rule was set.

Of course, it is not impossible to photocopy the rubbings, but the required contribution points will be a huge number that ordinary people can hardly imagine.

Such harsh and expensive conditions made the library tower sparsely populated.

But for Midi, this situation is just right.

"Human? So, you are the alchemy genius in the rumors?" An old voice sounded.

The owner of the voice is a dark elf elemental mage up to level 66. He is not young, but the gaze projected from those eyes full of magic power is still extremely sharp.

Any uninvited guest who broke through the outer defense, if he thought that he could sit back and relax after entering the library tower, he would be very wrong.

This person is not only extremely high-level, but also obviously strong. At least, Midi, who has environmental sensing, didn't notice his existence at all from the beginning.

"Alchemy genius can't be called a genius, it's just a little bit of research." In front of such a strong man, Midi is naturally a lot more polite, "However, I am here this time to read some books on alchemy. permit."

"What grade of books you can read depends on your contribution points." The elder replied flatly, with a kind mockery in his eyes.

It’s not that he has never heard of Midi’s rumors. However, according to his judgment, no matter how exhausted Midi is these days, it is impossible for Midi to have many contribution points. That's all alchemy books.

And judging from Midi's abilities, he simply doesn't like books of that level.

Therefore, when he came this time, he could only return empty-handed.

But of course there is another possibility, that is, Midi has refined a potion of a higher level than the seventh-level fire core potion.

If there is a bottle of such a potion, then the contribution points obtained are enough for him to read those high-level alchemy books.

Did he secretly refine some potion without him knowing and accumulated enough contribution points, or did he come here without thinking clearly? Which one is it?

The elder speculated secretly in his heart, and at the same time read the contribution point data from Midi's badge with the special crystal in his hand.

"420 a little contribution point." There was a hint of disappointment in the elder's tone.

It seems that the human being in front of him is really not ready.

Although it is surprising to be able to accumulate nearly [-] contribution points in less than a week after entering the Death Scorpion, these contribution points are not enough for Midi to step into the second floor of the library tower.

"Elder, I want to use [-] of the contribution points to exchange for the reading permission of the alchemy area on the first floor, should it be fine?" Midi asked.

"No problem." The elder glanced at Midi with a little surprise, "But, are you sure you want to read those books on the first floor? If I remember correctly, in the alchemy among them, the highest level is only the third-level potion. way of making it.”

"Thank you for the reminder, Elder. However, there are quite a few differences between surface alchemy and the Underdark. Although they are all basics and details, I still need to confirm it carefully." Any hesitation, obviously already considered this issue.

This human being is very serious!

The elder suddenly had such a feeling in his heart, and there was a trace of approval in his eyes when he looked at Midi.

He nodded and didn't say anything more, then handed a badge in his hand to Midi: "Take this, you have ten hours of reading rights, but only in the alchemy area. When the time is up, this The badge will automatically use the teleportation technique to send you out. Remember not to lose it, otherwise you will be punished with [-] contribution points."

Originally, the normal time limit for [-] contribution points was eight hours, but because Midi was so serious, the elder directly added two hours to him.

But the elder naturally would not have thought that once Midi entered the alchemy area, he didn't even touch a book on pharmacy. ", and then greedily turned it up!

"Help me look outside." Midi said to the eighth apostle Rotes.

If anyone sees his current appearance, the image of an arrogant alchemy genius with extraordinary skills that he managed to create before will collapse immediately.

But, with just ten hours, is it really possible to get started in the field of mechanics?

Even Rotes, who is the supreme powerhouse, couldn't help being a little suspicious.

After all, although he has made a lot of achievements in the field of pharmacy, he doesn't know much about mechanics. He can only "point out" but cannot "teach" systematically.

This is also the main reason why Midi had to use the library tower of the Death Scorpion.

And since it is impossible to "teach", Midi not only has to borrow the books of the Death Scorpion, but also has to rely on her own understanding to learn.

From the first step, what height can Midi reach in mechanics, or will she just fall down? This question can only be answered by Midi herself.

The only thing Rotes can do is to wait and guard.
