The Amber Sword

Vol 2 Chapter 10: alchemy

Act ten alchemy

Brando saw the riders in the open space between the golden fir trees bathed in the sun after noon, bringing the people who wanted to see him, no, not one, but a group. With the leading mercenaries sliding down the fir-lined hillside, as soon as he walked out of the woods, he saw about a dozen people with scattered faces scattered among the forest clearings-two or three of them took Horses, some with bandages, are mostly dressed in thick leather or tight chain mail, with small painted shields and long swords hanging on the belts—looking like mercenaries like Mano and others .

It was their boss who stood not far behind Ulliel. Brando has to admit that he rarely sees such a burly man in the south of the Golan-Elsen province. It must be the Anleks of the north, or at least this lineage-the other party has a look Brown-red beard with a square face and a sword mark on the corner of the eyebrow. He wore a shirt with an open chest, sleeves pulled over his elbows, exposing the knotted muscles below.

This person must be quite confident in his own strength, otherwise he would not just wear a simple leather shoulder pad, and there would be no protective gear on his body. His weapon is a string of hand axe hanging on the belt. This is also a weapon commonly used by local soldiers in Enek. Not only can it be used for close combat, but it can also be thrown out at any time to kill people.

This big man, like a mad soldier, took off his hat with the same respect when he saw Brando, and buried his head: "Dear Lord Knight, hello, I only pay tribute to you on behalf of the red jackal mercenaries. I am their leader, Bartom. "

Bartom means 'red, red vermillion' in Antilles, and Brando further confirmed his origins. He put his hand on the sword, nodded without a trace, and looked at the other side until he showed his intention.

Brando's identity at this moment is a noble knight from mouth to mouth among the refugees. Maintaining this identity is good for him at this time-so Brando will neither admit it nor object, but will show a concession. A playful attitude, this mystery helps him to establish prestige among these people.

Brando didn't say anything, but Bartom was entangled. He asked cautiously, "Excuse me, Lord Knight, are you taking these refugees out of the pursuit of the Madara army?"

Brando glanced at him and nodded.

"Dare to ask, do you still lack manpower?"

"Why, do you want to join us?" Brando froze, realizing immediately that the mercenaries were probably retreated from the Spire Valley. They were all sleepy and desperate, and they needed shelter.

That being said, the battle between the White-Maned Swordsman Corps and the ‘Dead Sister’ Margus has come to an end. Looking at this situation, Luc Besson should be defeated.

Brando looked up, looking through the cascading fir forest in front of him, and fell on the rolling hills outside. I am afraid that the refugees and soldiers of the White-Maned Swordsman Regiment will arrive here, so the scale of the refugees will be expanded again.

Bartom saw the young aristocrat pressing the hilt of his sword with one hand and staring at the front. He quickly nodded and replied, "Yes, Lord Knight, we just need a little bit of food and medicinal materials. After a short rest, we can fight for you again."

"What's ahead?" Brando suddenly asked.

Bartom froze.

"I mean the Spikestone Valley, how many Madara's undead army."

"Countless, sir. Skeleton cavalry of the brigade brigade. They have been chasing tails from night to drive the refugees forward. Luc Besson's **** did not resist at all. He was chased all the way, and then he met the monsters Ambush, almost the entire army is gone— "

Brando's performance of Luc Besson is not strange. The 'Tiger' Luc Besson is indeed one of the best men in the White Maned Legion. However, he cannot escape this historical limitation. Failure is inevitable.

Squadron Cavalry, Kabais and Death Cap combined? He suddenly thought of this question: "Big monster? What kind of monster?"

"They are about the same height as humans, with smooth skin, blue-black body, long iron claws, and a foul odor. They jumped out of the rocks around the valley and attacked us, and we were caught off guard. Less than two or three out of ten survive. "

Ghoul, just don't know if there is a corpse monster. Brando didn't say a word. What he was most worried about was ghouls. These undead creatures came from the black border area. In the military sequence of Madara, he was one order higher than the skeleton cavalry and one order lower than the black warrior and pale knight. , But this is the highest-ranking unit that Madara's lower-ranking units can gather on a large scale in this era-

He thought ‘dead 玛’ at least how many ghouls in Margus ’hands? hundred? two hundred? Ghoul is a level 20 creature, each of which has the power of the black iron downstream, it is taken for granted that the White Mane Swordsman Group was defeated by them in a sudden attack.

"Master Cavalier?" Bartom was a little surprised to see Brando say nothing.

Brando then nodded: "If you want to join my team, you must abide by my rules. I mean to hire you. In addition to the remuneration, I will give you a place to rest. You follow him, he I'll give you some food, herbs and bandages. When you're done rest, you're ready to fight. "

As he said, he patted the mercenary on his shoulder: "Take them over."

"Thank you for your generosity, Lord Knight." Bartom quickly hurriedly bowed deeply. The conditions offered by Brando had greatly exceeded his expectations. He had visited many places but had never seen them Such a generous aristocracy.

The rider who followed him asked, "How about you, sir?"

"You go back and let me meet for a while." Brando looked at the surrounding environment and felt that it fit his needs, so he answered.

Brando certainly did not want to be alone for a while, but to complete an alchemy. Alchemy is not a mysterious skill in Vaund. The civilization of magic determines that many workshop artisans are more or less a little bit alchemy. But to make it an art of magic, it requires deep knowledge and long-term accumulation.

In the language of the game, the skill of alchemy is two skills before and after level 5. Before level 5, it looks more like chemistry. Craftsmen use this skill to obtain some materials different from ordinary.

After level 5, it became a mysterious art. The wizards used advanced alchemy to extract pure crystals and magic materials, and even make magic potions and some natural magic items.

Pairing it with forging, craftsmanship, and enchanting skills are the making techniques of legendary magic equipment.

There are many artisans and workshop apprentices among the refugees. It is not difficult for Brando to learn alchemy. He only needs to find one to ask a few words to start the basic alchemy. As a nobleman, naturally, no one doubts that he will steal the lesson—

But this time Brando happened to be stealing a teacher.

Raising Alchemy from level 0 to level 5 requires a total of 122 skill experience, but this is not a problem for Brando now. After the battle the previous night, he had a total of 967 points of experience on hand to allow him to raise his professional level to 9th level of the mercenary-so that his spare skill experience would reach 164 points, which is more than enough.

Unfortunately, alchemy is a skill of the mysterious department, and the physics profession can only place it under the basic identity of a civilian. Because the basic status is different from the profession, any skill in this status is considered to be my own job-but because the basic status cannot increase the level, a skill can only be promoted to a fixed level under this status.

For example, civilians can upgrade alchemy to level 5, the nobility is level 7, and the alchemist is level 15. In fact, in "The Sword of Amber", identity and professional matching is a very sophisticated technique. Sometimes a warrior player wants to acquire the skills of a wizard, or a wizard player wants to acquire the skills of a warrior, if he does not want to waste his experience and attributes on a part-time basis, he will think of changing his identity.

Brando's ideal state is to increase alchemy to level 6 to make magic potions, but at this moment the conditions are limited.

He waited for Battom and others to leave with the rider, waited for a while, and confirmed that there were no people around, and then came to the center of the empty space by himself, carefully cleaning out an empty space on the ground, and then pulled out his sword to draw on the empty space A simple method:

Energy Conversion Matrix

The knowledge of the magic circle comes from level 4 alchemy, which is used by craftsmen to extract free energy from physical entities and seal it into a crystalline state.

Then there is the Blood Alchemy.

This is why Brando avoided other people. The technique of blood alchemy is actually derived from the alchemy technique of Madara. It is one of the forbidden techniques strictly prohibited within the scope of the Temple of Fire. This is mainly due to the fact that Blood Alchemy will cause damage to the caster itself, which is inconsistent with the basic teachings of the Temple of Fire.

But I have to say that blood alchemy is a very practical technique, because it can ignore the alchemy equipment, allowing the alchemist to complete some simple material synthesis under any circumstances.

To be honest, although the Yan Temple was strictly forbidden at that time, the players who use this technique are not a lot for Eruin and Cruz. Players only focus on practical results, but they have only been found to be a level.

Besides, it's usually not found, right?

However, Brando was still a little nervous at this moment. For the player, losing one level is a matter of losing his head. Although Shire had been helping him out, he was a little afraid to challenge the authority of the Temple of Flame so boldly.

He took a breath, took out the tooth that had been pulled from the middle-level corpse witch of Ridenburg, put it in the center of the circle, and then stood up and stabbed his finger with the tip of a sword, a drop of blood leaked out. He lay his finger flat, letting the blood drip in the center of the magic circle, and the red light of the magic circle flashed, and the tooth immediately turned into a pink crystal the size of a pinky.

The moment Alchemy was completed, Brando felt a slight jump in his heart, and he had already been hurt by -1 back bite.

He wiped a cold sweat on his pale forehead, and then picked up the crystal, which was actually just a crystallization of soul energy. However, unlike the soul crystal, if this muddy soul energy is absorbed by people, it may be poisoned and killed immediately.

But don't look at this crude and small thing, it is one of his most important props tonight.

But he can't breathe a sigh of relief at this moment, because he has more work to do. With thirty-two teeth and four fingers, Brando had already planned to squander his bottle of Holy Water No. 5 here. He can only hope that these investments will pay back enough.

But he was only halfway through, and about a quarter of an hour later, he heard Charles' voice outside: "Who?"

Brando's heart was in a hurry, and he hurriedly leveled the law circle on the ground, put away all the materials, and then grabbed the thorns of the light and ran out. As soon as he walked to the edge of the fir forest, he saw a middle-aged man standing opposite Shire. He froze a bit and found that this middle-aged man was the one he rescued last night.

How did he get here?

In Brando's memory, this middle-aged man was quite strong-spirited and dared to resist under the guards of Markov. It just seems too unwise.

But what he didn't expect is that the middle-aged man's first sentence when he saw him was: "Sir, are you using the blood magic circle, please take your body as the most important thing--"

This sentence is like a thunderbolt, not only Brando, but even Charles. How did he know? Has he been here for a long time? impossible! Shire didn't believe he was unaware of even a civilian.

The young wizard was subconsciously preparing to spell.

But the middle-aged man saw their doubts and bowed deeply: "Sir, I have not thanked you for your salvation last night. My name is Tamar, and I am an alchemist."

"Tama?"

"You are Tamar!" Brando first felt the name a little familiar, but later remembered that this was not Madara's chief court alchemist after 380 years (the year of Venus)?

He was almost shocked by the name for a moment.

He couldn't help looking at each other up and down to see if this was the Tama. But it seems likely that this is the one. The original Tamar was originally not a Madara. Presumably he was transformed into an undead during this war. If it was because of Markov's bastard, it would not be impossible for him to turn to hate this country. Presumably the cause of hatred was the death of his son. Think of it this way, everything is logical.

But what really made Brando confirm was that the other party was keen on alchemy. It can be seen from the backwash effect that he is using the forbidden technique, which is not what ordinary alchemy talents can do.

In the history of Tamar, that is an anti- heavenly power. Most of the high-level undead transformation results of Madara were completed by him, Messat, and Cerrilando. . And Tamar's most famous achievement is to directly transform the black army array technology of the skeleton soldiers from the corpse. This technology can be said to directly double the military strength of Madara-

Nowadays, it seems that it is a little difficult for Madara to get this result again. Brando looked at the human Tamar in front of him, and couldn't help but smile.

"Master?" He didn't have to smile, but he surprised Tamar. He said that the knight master had a special hobby? He had heard tainted rumors among the aristocracy, so he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy even if he was getting old.

It was Charr who coughed angrily on the side, so that Brando was awake, and he was busy explaining: "You are the master of alchemy in Rittenberg, Tama?"

Master of Alchemy? That's one of the top titles in the field of alchemy. Is he so famous? Tamar froze and shook her head quickly: "I'm just a little anonymous alchemist, sir, I've been working for the aristocratic council before, with no results-"

Not famous yet? Now that Bom was picked up, Brando was overjoyed.
