Chapter 84 – Crafting Dragons
Chapter 84 – Crafting Dragon
If one were to say that those first two titles could only be considered minor achievements for a young silver dragon.
That last item, however, was definitely worthy of the word master!
In the eyes of many laymen, it was definitely the more high-grade potions that were invented, the more powerful they were.
It was just like those great magicians who developed high level, nine-ringed and even legendary magic.
One of the best of them was, for example, the legendary magician Magic Duncan, one of the Eight Leaves from the Gray Eagle Plane.
He invented and named [Magic Duncan’s Mansion Technique], [Magic Duncan’s Loyal Dog], [Magic Duncan’s Force Field Missile], [Magic Duncan’s Great Cracking Technique], [Magic Duncan’s Memory Technique], [Magic Duncan’s Private Chamber], [Magic Duncan’s Mirage Guard], and a series of well-known spells that spread throughout the realms.
That required extremely profound knowledge and in-depth exploration of the nature of magic to be able to reach the top.
However, alchemy potions are slightly different, and being able to invent and refine high-level and even legendary potions is certainly a source of respect.
But once the potion is up, the rarity of its materials and the popularity of the difficulty of a straight line up, unlike some carving heaven [magic specialization] of the master of the law can directly do part of the specific magic casting free of material, but you have come to do the potion can also be created out of nothing, which leads to some even completely coincidentally difficult to replicate the orphaned products.
This is roughly the same reason why the difficulty of trying to create some new compounds in Bluestar nowadays is often quite a bit simpler than trying to discover and prove a new element on the periodic table again.
Sometimes the invention of a new way of getting complex organic molecules to couple often meant the explosive emergence of dozens of new compounds.
But to re-formulate a new, lower-order potion out of a field that had been explored countless times before by the High Elves, a magical civilization that had endured for who knows how many years, with cheaper materials as substitutes, required not only the same deep knowledge of the subject, but sometimes a little bit of .
Luck.
But in any case, in all aspects, the guy who had this kind of ‘luck’ was equally lucky enough to pick up the title and qualifications of a master.
According to the Zhuoer mage, even their Zhuoer’s rage concoction was accidentally mistaken for the main ingredient when they reverse cracked the sobriety potion, mixing the crimson residue in, and as a result, they actually got a rage concoction whose effect was more suitable for the Zhuoer baby’s physique.
Because of the nature of this alternative coupling, it is very likely that more similar to the poison potion, Ella Rhea version of the body powder, hand-throwing thunder potion bottles are on the way to be Zhuoer’s death-defying research and development.
David reckoned it was for that very reason, and as the inventor of the sobriety potion, it was amazing that a gargoyle with a good name hadn’t openly claimed it.
Turns out the root was actually here.
Davey could tell that Priest Atilicia didn’t know what had happened to her in the past, but in any case, she had an extreme rejection and resistance to everything about red dragons, and it could even be said to be a prejudice bordering on magical flute paranoia.
He preferred not to have this honor, but also did not want to have anything to do with that ‘filthy and evil’ rage concoction made from the blood of the red dragon.
But David had never been a dragon who explored too much out of curiosity.
After all, curiosity could easily kill a dragon.
He didn’t care why this Silver Dragon Priest was so extreme in his rejection of the Red Dragon, what did it have to do with the current him, ‘Silver Dragon Saphis Duin’.
And with such a potion development dragon directly as a teacher, on that originally planned as a potion maker Zor mage? Or Yevgeny who was prepared to remotely serve as a ‘substitute messenger’ for Hiatt?
All of them gave way to Master Attilicia!
When he learned the tricks of the trade, wouldn’t he be better than these two half-baked goods?
Holding such a good mood, in Atilicia teacher waiting for the Silver Grand Duke to send people to deeply investigate this ‘collusion with the Zhuoer potion smuggling corruption case’ before the water comes out of the gap, David began to follow its side to observe and learn up.
In fact, learning alchemy first required a basic understanding of magic.
Because the process of alchemy was actually the application of magic.
In addition, knowledge of natural sciences such as botany, mineralogy, etc. and biology is also very important, as many alchemical recipes require these.
Then, secondly, there is the use of tools, which includes the alchemy toolkit as well as a number of other basic tools, such as mortar and pestle, test tubes, beakers, couplers, filter paper, etc.
Proficiency in the use of these tools is often decisive for the success of alchemy.
The most important quality in learning alchemy is patience and attention to detail.
Alchemy often involves monitoring and adjusting the details of the process, which also requires good observation and intense concentration.
But all of these basics could be sidelined for now in Atilicia’s opinion.
In the eyes of a silver dragon, especially a master alchemy genius, none of these were problems, and they were all side issues that could be easily remedied through later life.
Superior intellect, excellent memory and comprehension are the things that are crucial for an alchemist!
Because many alchemy formulas and crafting spells require an in-depth understanding of complex formulas and mysterious materials, as well as a pattern and innovative ideas that go beyond the logic of ordinary people’s minds.
And this, is what determines the upper limit of an Alchemist’s future achievements.
But in Attilicia’s view, especially after David had easily ‘seen through everything’ with a single glance earlier, this Silver Dragon Priest naively believed:
His son possessed all of these precious qualities!
Just kidding! He, Attilicia, was the alchemy genius and master recognized by the entire Silver Dragon Sweetlanden Clan and the High Elves.
How could his own son be any worse?
Ah?
David also held the idea that he would be able to successfully learn the process of making the [Sobering Potion] in ten days and half a month.
After all, how hard could an elementary alchemy potion be?
Even that retarded Zor Mage could learn it, so how could he learn it?
He’s not going to be able to learn it, is he?
Then, the two [Arrogant] confident silver dragons, like one, flipped together magnificently.
In the empty alchemy workshop, after another polymerization beaker exploded in the middle of Attilicia’s wooden gaze.
All the alchemy apprentices and warlocks stopped working in unison.
Then for the first time in more than a decade of knowing each other, they also had the honor of seeing the Master Alchemist, who had never been calm and wise, growl as if he were close to breaking down and screaming:
“Why can you get such a simple operation wrong! “You must wait for the moment when the other original liquids are sufficiently mixed and discolored before you can add the Hundred Years Incense Flower Pollen as a medium, or else what you make will always be such an alchemical dynamite that will explode at any time!
“If it wasn’t for me casting a spell on the side to stop the polymerization process, do you want to blow this alchemy workshop directly into the sky! Huh???”
“This is the base of the basics, did your teacher never teach you .”
Only when Master Atilicia said this, he suddenly paused, and then took the head of the silver dragon David, who had always kept his head lowered without saying a word to listen attentively to the reprimand, into his arms in front of everyone’s incredulous gazes:
“I’m sorry. I was too arrogant.
“I forgot for a moment that you had just returned from the Old World, and probably hadn’t even touched the basics before that.
“But I stubbornly thought that you would be able to surpass the knowledge and processes that would take an ordinary person one or two or even three or four decades to master by virtue of your superior intelligence.
“I’m sorry, Saphis Duin please forgive me for my earlier arrogance, irrationality and aggressiveness in learning alchemy.
“Let us, rather, begin with the simplest first.
“But before that, in order to give you a taste of what comes from alchemy, I will personally demonstrate the process of making the initial version of the sobriety potion today.
“There’s no need to forcefully memorize it, after all, even a master alchemist can’t be able to replicate it after observing it once from the sidelines, what you only need to do is to
“Listen carefully, with feeling.
“Understand? My child.”
By the time she said those last words, the somewhat emotional Atilicia had actually blurted out.
But everyone present, including the impostor Silver Dragon David, didn’t hear anything strange.
After all, the title of ‘Maisan’ was normal for a teacher to say to his favorite and intimate students.
Especially after the identity of the other party was a silver dragon with a mostly amazing backstage, it was even more normal.
“Understood, teacher.” Without the slightest bit of discouragement, David replied with a smile.
“Very good, Alchemy needs just this indomitable quality of yours, now, watch me operate.”
Atilicia’s words nearly brought the alchemists present to tears.
When had Master Attilicia ever treated them so gently?
But normally, even being chastised and insulted by such a beautiful looking teacher with a delicate voice was something else.
There are even a lot of guys who like to make a little problem that is not a principle, and expect to be scolded by Ms. Atilicia as a reward for their boring working life.
And as Master Atilicia began to personally demonstrate the textbook alchemical operation of the Sobering Potion, everyone held their breath, and David even stared with a pair of dragon eyes that resembled a light bulb, constantly muttering to himself in a voice that could only be heard by himself:
”Ah ah ah ah! Why can’t I be as genius as teacher Atilicia!
”Why can’t I learn this seemingly simple series of maneuvers!
”Why is it that I can’t make a beginner’s potion that even that retard, Mage Drell, can make?
”Hmm?!!!”
Soon, his purposeful envy and jealousy finally bore fruit.
[Power – Envy]
[Power – Greed]
[Power – Arrogance]
Under the collaboration of these three powers, all the movements of the entire alchemy workshop and even Atilicia seemed to have slowed down, and they were even able to predict the other party’s next moves and maneuvers.
At the same time, David directly crossed the limitations of intelligence, memory, comprehension, patience, attention to finesse, attention to detail, and even the basics of natural sciences, such as botany and biology, that were necessary to be an Alchemist.
This moment was like the possession of Uchiha Bandou, opening the [God’s Mighty Blood Wheel Eyes].
With the spirit of the Dragon Craftsman, he directly reproduced the entire process of Atilicia’s production of the [Sobriety Potion] and imprinted it in his own deep mind.
Just when all the alchemists were marveling at the fact that Master Atilicia had directly produced the crystal grade to perfection [Sobering Potion] ‘Original Liquid’.
“Poof!” David, who had finally reached his own limit, spilled blood from all seven of his orifices at the same time.
Ka-ching!
Atilicia, whose robes were wet with blood, seemed to have realized something and hurriedly turned back, tweezing in her hands the artifact that could be called crystal grade immediately fell to the ground in the midst of everyone’s wailing regret and shattered.
Together with the broken, as if the hearts of all the alchemists.
The only one who didn’t care about it at all was Attilicia who ran all the way to the side of the stupefied David and couldn’t stop releasing [Healing Spells] as she cried her eyes out:
“Saphis Duin!
“What’s wrong with you!
“Don’t scare me!
“How can I live without you!!!”
