"Try it?" Viscount Sebesh held the small black paper bag in his hand, looked back and forth, and observed it repeatedly.
"Try it!" Gretel nodded confidently: "I've tried it before! It works great! No problem!"
"Are you really going to try this?"
Yulia floated past the two of them holding her precious little lace umbrella.On the edge of the parasol, wisps of mist naturally hang down, easily blocking the less intense sunlight in the evening.
This girl-like vampire stopped and turned around.Slightly raised the corners of her lips, her words sneered:
"Be careful that it is like silver powder, it will directly burn you!"
Viscount Sebesh is also hesitant about this.Although he can resist the burning of silver powder to a certain extent, it is definitely not happy.Gretel made this thing, the burning power is no greater than silver powder...
Gretel is also a healer after all!The holy light emitted by the healer is harmful to their blood race!
Gretel calmly expressed his confidence.He took out a document from the space bag and handed it over directly:
"Then, the experimental records made with skeleton soldiers. These things, the lowest skeleton soldiers, have been held in the hands for half an hour, and there is no sign of burns!"
The dense handwriting on the record book.The shades are different, the handwriting is different, and the signatures are different, which clearly come from more than ten magicians.The test duration, mana value, and the amount of materials used are different for each group.
If the experimental records were forged, this falsified project would be too troublesome.
Viscount Sebesh glanced at the experiment records, and then looked at the results.The lowest-level skeleton soldiers were used in the test. After using Gretel's newly developed spell-casting material, the time for each skeleton to stand in the sun ranged from 30 minutes to two hours.
"Looks pretty good.—shall I try?"
"Try it! —Tear off the paper bag and don't keep looking at it! Use it immediately! This spell-casting material won't work if it's exposed to light for a long time!"
The test results are really good.A cloud of light black smoke rose from the torn paper bag, effectively blocking the sunlight.Viscount Saibesh relaxed his whole body, took another piece and rubbed it back and forth in his hands, and let out a satisfied breath:
"It's really easy to use! How do you plan to sell this spell-casting material?"
"Would you like to quote a price?"
"That will have to wait for me to study and study..."
Gretel was very easy-going and didn't feel embarrassed at all. He raised his hand and stuffed him with all the remaining spell-casting materials:
"Help me sell and sell! If you order a large quantity, you can get a discount!"
A small stack of paper bags, two of which were used, and eight left.It's not expensive anyway, let's see what you can try...
Viscount Sebesh returned to the room, closed the door, and extinguished all the lights—sinners have dark vision anyway, so they don’t need that—he couldn’t wait to take out one, looked up and down, left and right:
A square slice.One inch long and one inch wide, the thickness is not much wider than a hair.
Pale black, translucent, uniform thickness, smooth surface.The edge breaks are smooth and smooth, and the corners are slightly crooked.
"Scribed with a knife? It was originally a large piece?" Viscount Sebesh touched the four corners of the slice and came to a conclusion.But what the hell is this?
Not like crystal, not like glass, not like ivory, not like shells.Viscount Sebesh has lived for 100 years and has never seen anything like this.
"Mages always make weird things." The young vampire muttered, throwing an identification spell on it on the spot.
No feedback.
Identification cannot.
Identification means that it knows me, I don't know it...
"Cunning humans."
Viscount Sebesh shrugged, not surprised.It's normal if it can't be identified. If it can be identified directly, how can humans sell it for money?
As for the identification technique, it can give feedback on the items that have been entered at the beginning of the creation of this spell, or the beginning of the creation of this version learned by the spellcaster.For items that have not been entered, it can only give some basic information:
Length, width, height, weight.What it may contain (sometimes not allowed), possible production methods (often not allowed).Then, if the appraiser is experienced and can use a series of means to provide more abundant information, the success rate of appraisal can also be improved.
Otherwise, what is the use of appraising the master?If everyone has an identification technique, won't everything be solved?
He calmly opened the bottles and jars.Balances, beakers, test tubes, crucibles, various reagents... Then, he carefully took out a thin slice, carefully cut it to a size of 1 square centimeter, threw it in front of the alchemy table, and started tossing.
observe.
weighing.
Use a knife to scrape off the surface powder.
Put it into a test tube, add reagents, and observe the reaction.
Add sulfuric acid first.Viscount Sebesh watched eagerly, and waited for a long time, as if there was no response...
So, try scraping some more powder and adding some caustic soda?
... This time there was a reaction, but it was quite weak, and it was not much better than none.Viscount Sebesh tried nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, and baking soda again, but nothing seemed to work...
So, burn it and see?Viscount Sebesh carefully cut off another 1 square centimeter, held it with tweezers, and approached the alcohol lamp.
Whoa, it burns so fast!
Obviously, this thing is a flammable object.However, the flame has no special color, so I still can't tell what it is...
Viscount Sebesh locked himself in the room, rolled up his sleeves, and worked hard.He worked until the night was dark, when his friends came knocking on the door, and he opened a pair of lifeless eyes, and went to open the door:
"Why are you looking for me...I haven't finished my work yet...I haven't identified what this thing is..."
Soon, a group of bad friends rolled up their sleeves and joined the ranks of Viscount Sebesh.
The alchemy level of these few people is even worse than that of Viscount Besh.Five people get one share, each one a one-inch-long and one-inch-wide slice, and it has disappeared into various reagents before the results can be obtained.
Then, in addition to flammable, flammable, acid-resistant, alkali-resistant, and oil-resistant, after tossing for a long time, everyone didn't get any reliable conclusions.As for what this thing is, sorry.
"Where did you come from?"
"The Nordmark mage gave it to me. Instead of silver powder as a casting material, it is used to block the sun. I tried it, and the effect is very good, and it doesn't hurt my hands."
"So you want to try to see if you can analyze it? If you can analyze it, you don't need to buy it?"
"That's for sure! Why buy it when you can make it yourself!"
However, it is shameful that so many noble blood races tried their best, but they still failed.Everyone looked at each other and struggled with the remaining two sheets for a while, when someone suddenly said:
"There are too few experimental materials!"
One word awakens the dreamer.The young blood races all agreed:
"Yes, that's right, it must be too little! If there are more experimental materials, it will definitely not fail!"
"Saibesh, the magician will come tomorrow, you can ask him to buy more copies! Let's raise money together!"
"Buy one hundred copies! One hundred copies is enough!"
"If you still can't research a hundred copies... we'll buy it..."
This answer was unanimously agreed upon by all.The next night, when Gretel came to visit again, Viscount Sebesh really asked for a purchase.
"Small batches... 100 copies, 10 gold coins each. 1000 gold coins for the benefit."
"So expensive?"
"A fifth-level transformation mage is in charge of research and development, and a sixth-level necromancer is leading the test. There are so many magicians involved..." Gretel shrugged confidently:
"Experiment records, you have also seen it."
That's not too expensive at all.Not only is it not expensive, 1000 gold coins can't even recover the cost of research and development and testing...
——Are you so confident?I think I bought 100 pieces of spell-casting materials and went back, but I can't research what it is?
--certainly!How can the things I created be so easy to crack?
The two smiled and looked at each other, with crackling eyes and sparks bursting out.For a moment, Viscount Sebesh shrugged and readily took out the money.Pay with one hand and deliver with one hand.Gretel watched his turning back until the young vampire disappeared, then curled his lips:
"Big dog~~~"
One thousand gold coins, just take it out!
I thought he would counter-offer!
It's a pity that ten times the number of research subjects does not mean ten times the success rate.The young vampires tossed half of the materials, but they still couldn't figure it out and made no progress.There is no way, for the honor of the blood clan, I can only take the materials to disturb Marquis Telgu.
Lord Marquis's strength is really different.Holding the slice, closing his eyes and concentrating for a moment, he immediately gave the first conclusion:
"It has silver in it."
The young vampires nodded repeatedly.So far, this is their only achievement.But... After reaching this step, there is no further.
"It's not silver powder."
"A combination of some substance and silver."
"Silver powder that can burn... well, it should be a high-level material activated by magic, otherwise it would be impossible to do this. However, there is no burning sensation in the hand... um..."
Lord Marquis closed his eyes and meditated.On the other side of the long table, Miss Yulia picked up a thin slice, turned it around with her fingertips, and was suddenly pleasantly surprised:
"Hey, you can record people's silhouettes on this sheet!"
With a bang, five or six heads came together.The small lace umbrella rotated slightly, and the black light spread out, covering half of the study room.Amidst the black light, a faint figure appeared on the sheet on Miss Yulia's fingertips.
"It looks pretty good."
"It can be used to record the image of the enemy."
"Maybe you can also absorb part of the soul at the same time?"
"Is it used to curse? Good idea! You can try it!"
"We need more experimental materials! Buy, buy, buy!"
The needs of the blood clan passed from the Marquis of Targu to the Archmage, and then from the Archmage to Gretel.For this kind of spell-casting material that can block sunlight, protect vampires and undead creatures, and can ingest images, vampires offered an astonishingly high price:
For a single purchase of 5000 pieces, each piece is worth [-] gold coins.
"By the way, can it be cheaper for Black Crow Swamp?"
Archmage Grom asked by the way.A metal coin, a fledgling sorcerer's apprentice really can't afford it.However, the lower the level of skeleton soldiers, the more they need this thing...
"Okay! - Otherwise, I will sell the patent to you, and you will be responsible for the manufacture and supply, and just give me a share of the money?"
