Seeker of Teyvat

But he saw a familiar figure communicating with Nikolaid in front of the alchemy workshop.

"Well, let's talk about the Athos material later. There's still enough time..."

After saying something to Niguled, Wang Dao turned around and looked at Ying and Paimon.

"You two, long time no see."

Paimon waved excitedly, "Daoyi, we received your wedding invitation and thought you had already returned to Liyue."

Wang Daoyi smiled and said, "I was preparing to go back, but I temporarily sensed your presence, so I stayed for a while."

He had originally planned to return to Liyue directly, but when he sensed the presence of Ying and Paimon returning, he came to the alchemy workshop to wait.

"You are waiting for us, what's the matter?" Ying looked at Wang Daoyi with some curiosity.

Wang Daoyi looked at Ying who had transformed herself into a part-time worker to prepare a gift for him and said, "It's nothing serious. I just wanted to ask, when are you going to Fontaine?"

"Fontaine? Hmm... after you and Xiangling are married, it will be the Lantern Festival. Let's go after the Lantern Festival."

The worker thought about it and gave a schedule.

"Okay, come to the temple to see me before you go. I have a commission for you."

Wang Daoyi smiled.

Although Villette and Funina were unwilling to tell the secret, with Ying around, Wang Daoyi believed that those secrets would eventually reach his ears.

Ying didn't have any problem. This wasn't the first time she had done this.

When she went to Inazuma before, Wang Daoyi had entrusted her to deliver something.

"Okay, I'll make a note of that." Ying nodded, then looked at Nicolaide, "We've received a commission from the Adventurer's Association, saying they need help with your experiment?"

Chapter 637: Red Sand Energy Purification Crystallization Version 1

"Listen Catherine, you need help with your experiment?"

Ying looked at Nicored and asked.

Nicored was stunned for a moment, then thought of something and nodded slightly: "You should be talking about the experiment on the Athos substance. It is true that the Adventurers Association has issued a task, hoping to find some inspiration from the adventurers, but It’s a pity that there is no gain at all. If you didn’t tell me, I would have almost forgotten.”

"Huh? Is the research on Athos matter still continuing?" Wang Daoyi interjected.

Nicored showed a trace of speechlessness: "Although you took Abatuyi away, I am still here. How can I stop so easily when studying this kind of thing? After the restraint device is repaired, the experiment will continue."

Wang Daoyi shrugged indifferently: "Then I hope you can have a breakthrough when Abatuyi comes back."

Nicholas rolled his eyes at Wang Dao, ignored this guy, and turned to look at Ying: "Although the previous adventurers were useless, I believe that you, the traveler, should be different. Please come with me, maybe You can give some different perspectives.”

With that said, he ignored Wang Daoyi's presence and took Ying and Paimon deep into the alchemy workshop.

On the way, Paimon carefully floated next to Ying, looking at the semi-finished alchemy products that appeared around him from time to time, his eyes full of curiosity.

"You can have curiosity, but if you touch it, try to avoid it. Most of the things piled here are dangerous."

Seeing the curiosity in Paimon's eyes, Nicored reminded him aloud.

Danger?

Paimeng retracted his hand that was reaching for the beautiful gem with a hiss, and quickly hid behind Ying.

"The Shock Gem, which looks like a Mondstadt Colorful Gem in appearance, actually outlines multiple runes such as ultrasonic, vibration, wave, and fluctuation inside, and seals a drop of high-purity Athos crystal. Since it is expensive to create, it is a disposable item. , so it was abandoned.”

Nicored introduced Paimon to the gem she wanted to touch just now.

"If you are interested in this kind of weapon, you can go to the Teaching Academy. They have more convenient sonic shock weapons."

Paimon shook his head quickly: "No, no need, it's too scary."

Paimon would not dare to approach such a dangerous thing, let alone hold it.

"The technology of the Apostolic Order is good, and their weapons are very safe." Nicoreid said, "At least, they are very safe for the users."

Paimon waved his little hand repeatedly: "I don't care about safety, as long as I have a screen to protect me."

Nicholas shrugged: "Okay."

"Has the Teaching Council given you any benefits?" Wang Daoyi suddenly asked,

Nicoreid didn't hide anything: "We don't have mass production of some props, but the Order Academy does. If I introduce customers to them, I get a commission."

In fact, the funds Chisha granted to the alchemy workshop were very huge.

But, everyone familiar with scientific research understands it.

No matter how much funding there is, it cannot fill the hole of scientific research.

This is a long-term and huge investment.

Nicorette also has some small research of his own, which is his own hobby, and he is too embarrassed to touch Chisha's research funds.

As a result, Nicorette took on more part-time jobs.

Help the Holy Order to sell some products to people in need.

As the chief alchemist of Red Sand, Nicolaide tests what he sells, and adventurers in the desert are willing to trust him.

The Imperial Academy makes money and collects inspection data,

Nicolaide obtained the funds,

Adventurers get reliable props.

Triple win.

Among the dangerous items that Nicored introduced from time to time, everyone finally reached the depths of the workshop.

It’s still the place where Abatuyi did his experiments before.

The original cracked restraint device has been repaired.

Several alchemists wearing lab coats are recording something here.

After seeing Nicored come in, one of them walked over quickly,

"Teacher, we followed your instructions and slowed down the fusion speed of Athos matter and light energy crystals. We used the second version of the fusion agent. Currently, the rejection reaction is only 0.01% of the peak period, but as the fusion progresses, the energy fluctuations are also gradually increasing. We need a more prioritized fusion agent."

Nicored nodded and walked towards the strange device in the center of the laboratory: "Let me take a look first."

Ying and Paimon also followed, while Wang Daoyi stood at the door with no intention of participating.

Walking to Nicored, Ying saw what was going on in the strange device.

The golden fluid substance wraps the white crystal in the center, and strong energy fluctuations are bred in the device.

Wisps of dust-like fusion agent sprinkled from the top of the strange device, which actually suppressed the strong energy.

The golden fluid substance slowly penetrated into the white crystal interior under the constraints of the strange device.

Inside the white crystal, a trace of gold has appeared visible to the naked eye.

"Well, traveler, what do you think?"

Nicored asked.

Ying had seen the substance of Athos in the underground ruins of Kanria.

Seeing this scene in front of me, I naturally knew that Athos material and other energies were being fused here.

She has read the information left in the ruins of Kanria and knows that the sustainable energy of Kanria is a fusion of Athos matter and abyss energy.

"Are you researching a new sustainable energy formula?" Ying hesitated and asked.

Nicorette smiled: "As expected of a traveler, yes, he is looking for new recipes."

"This thing is very dangerous!" Ying frowned slightly and warned.

"Don't worry, we won't use abyss energy. Athos material is the purification of earth energy. As long as you don't abuse it, there will be no problem." Nicorette glanced at Wang Daoyi at the door and reassured Ying.

At first, Nicoreid wanted to recreate Camrea's sustainable energy, but was rejected by Wang Daoyi, so he started researching a new formula.

He looked at Nicoreid who was serious, and then glanced at Wang Daoyi outside the door.

Ying still believed that these two friends were not bad people.

"In my opinion, Athos substance and this light energy crystal are both high-level energy sources. The integration of two high-level energy sources must be difficult. If I were you, I would first reduce the concentration of Athos substance and try diluting it. Whether the Athos substance can be integrated into light energy crystals."

Although Ying doesn't read much, she and Kong have experienced many worlds and have a good perspective.

The biggest problem with the experiment can be seen at a glance.

The two energy sources used in the experiment are both high-concentration advanced energy sources.

Letting the two energy sources merge is like putting two terrifying beasts in a cage.

If it weren't for the fusion agent as an aid, the violent energy in the strange device would have exploded long ago.

But if one party is weakened and this balance of strong vs. powerful is broken, there may be opportunities for integration.

"Uh... Madam, we have also tried the method you mentioned, but the dilution of Athos's substance is not that simple. It itself is a high-concentration power extracted from the earth's veins. If it is diluted, It will directly disintegrate into a mixture of earth energy and elemental power."

The researcher next to Nicolade explained to Ying.

Although Ying's statement is wonderful, how could the researchers here not have thought of it? They had thought of this method a long time ago, but they just couldn't do it.

"Then dilute the light energy crystal." Ying looked at the researcher strangely, then reached out and took out a golden energy stone. "The energy stone left by the Kanreya machine, a semi-permanent energy crystal, you don't have it, right? Use this as the main body, and then inject light energy, right? It's nothing more than changing the main body of the experiment."

The researcher was slightly stunned, then slapped himself, his face quickly became excited: "Yes, let's change the experimental subject."

"Hurry up, start the experiment again."

The people in the laboratory took quick action.

The Athos substance cannot be diluted, but the researchers here are very familiar with light energy.

As the energy commonly used by the Lord of Red Sand, Red Sand has almost popularized light energy props.

The lighting fixtures on the streets of Xumi still use fluorescent materials, but the lighting fixtures in the Chisha tribe have been replaced by light energy alchemy tools.

It is easy for experimenters to dilute high concentrations of light energy.

Seeing his apprentice busy, Nikolaid smiled and looked at Ying: "Thank you."

Ying shook her head: "It's just a simple logic problem. You will figure it out sooner or later."

Wang Daoyi, who was outside the door, walked in and said, "It's not that simple. The long-term experiments have made them unwilling to give up the idea of ​​using Athos matter as the main body. If you hadn't pointed it out, they would have continued to insist until they completely failed."

How could Wang Daoyi not see through such a simple question? It's just that he just didn't want to say it directly.

Researchers are more likely to get stuck in a rut than ordinary people. Once they decide on a research direction, they will charge forward relentlessly and either succeed or suffer a bloody nose.

After all, who isn't a genius in this laboratory?

Now letting Ying, the traveler, bring inspiration to the experimenters is just to save a little face for the alchemy workshop.

"Please wait a moment, let's witness the birth of new energy together." Nikolaid said to the three people, and then joined the busy experiment.

Wang Daoyi naturally had no problem and leaned against the door edge again.

Ying and Paimeng looked at each other and noticed the curiosity in each other's eyes, so they didn't rush to leave.

Of course, the main thing is that the reward has not been given yet, and the certificate of completion of the task has not been given.

Time passed by little by little, the sun set from the horizon, the moon rose from the horizon,

The outside world is illuminated by the light-energy alchemical street lamps.

Although it was night, the noise from the Akasha headquarters did not diminish, but became even louder.

The desert weather means that when night falls, it is the most comfortable time of the day.

With lights everywhere, this is the time when everyone goes out to walk around and play.

However, Wang Daoyi and Ying, along with Paimeng, still stayed at the door of the laboratory deep in the alchemy workshop.

In the laboratory, researchers surrounded the strange device in the center, their eyes revealed from their lab coats with bright and excited looks.

‘Buzz~’

The strange fusion device vibrated slightly, but unlike the violent power fluctuations in the past, the fluctuations that caused the vibration this time were very stable.

Seeing that the restraint devices around were still calm and did not seem to be activated at all, it could also be proved that the experiment should have been successful.

After a while, the strange fusion device was opened, and Nicholas carefully took out a platinum-colored gem from the device.
