Kemospier walked into the alchemy workshop.

Chief tutor, the apprentices bowed their heads and saluted when they saw Kaimo.

He waved his hand and you guys continue.

The apprentices squatted down again, busy with their work.

The outermost part of the workshop is the sorting room, where materials from all over the gray castle are cleaned, sorted, screened and ground.

The design of the washing and picking room is also very clever. The stone floor is laid on a stream, which is used for passage in the middle. On both sides are gurgling streams, flowing parallel to the stone path, crossing a stream a wide stream, and on the outside is the cleaning area.

At first glance, the narrow and long picking room seemed to be divided into three sections from the longitudinal direction by two streams.

Light shot through the window holes on both sides of the wall, reflecting on the stone floor and the stream, connecting it into long strips of light spots across the room.

Light and dark overlap each other, like snake marks.

Nearly a hundred apprentices leaned against the wall, processing the materials assigned to them.

If the removed debris are lighter than water, they can be thrown directly into the stream water. If it is heavier than water, they must be put into the basket and taken out of the washing and picking room before discarding.

If you use live water for cleaning, the effect is much better than the stagnant water contained in wooden barrels.

They will study here for three to five years until they know the sorting and cleaning of various materials well, and then have the opportunity to be selected as disciples by the tutor and go to the next room.

Kaimo walked into the refining room of the core area of ​​the Alchemy Workshop, stepping on the light spots that were light and dark.

When I opened the door, my vision suddenly became clear. Twelve giant trees transported from the hidden forest served as pillars, supporting this extremely spacious room.

The stone walls on all sides have windows, and even the roof is equipped with patios and shading, making the room extremely light.

There are six wide wooden tables in the center of the refining room, and the tables are filled with all kinds of alchemy tools: round-bottomed bottles, glass cups, balances, medicinal mortars, stoves, crucibles... Each tutor is responsible for managing and using a table. As the chief alchemist in Chishui City, he naturally uses the longest and most utensils.

This place is always full of chaos and disorder, like alchemy, mixing various raw materials together, heating, distilling, passing through water, and incinerating.Its results are always ever-changing and fascinating.

If you can find a clear direction from these disorderly changes and write it into words, it is an extremely rare alchemy formula.

Those who can create original alchemy formulas can be called alchemists.

So far, he has summarized more than a dozen alchemy formulas, each of which seems to be a whisper from a god, Kemo believes that alchemy has developed to a certain extent, not only can it separate the origin, but it can even combine all things.

Chames, how did your snow powder imitate?He asked.

A young man in his twenties came over and shook his head and said, "The damn Wangdu alchemist must have added other ingredients to it. The powder was grinded very finely, and there was no useful thing to separate."

He is the youngest alchemist in the Alchemy Workshop. Generally speaking, if you want to create an alchemy formula, it is impossible to do without long accumulation and attempts, and sometimes even require a little luck.

Many people in the workshop have been disciples all their lives and are unable to further their efforts until their death.

Chames has extraordinary talent for alchemy. Two years ago, he summarized the method of obtaining acid liquid by dry distilled alum, which won unanimous recognition from five alchemists. Since then, there is a long table in the refining room.

Don't worry, take your time.He smiled and patted the other person on the shoulder to show comfort.

After being the chief for eight years, Kaimo naturally understood the difficulty of finding truth from disorder and chaos, but I made a good thing last night that I could give those arrogant guys a little color.Come with me.

He walked to his table and asked the two disciples to bring the storage box about half a person tall, and the whole body was made of cooked iron, which was not easy to be stolen and difficult to be destroyed.

He took out the key and opened the first floor grid, and a small piece of transparent crystal lies in the center of the grid.

Cut crystal?Chames, who was standing aside, carefully pinched it in his hand and looked at the sunlight outside the window. No, this is... crystal glass!Oh my God!You did it!

That's right, Kaimo smiled proudly, I really want to see what a wonderful expression on his face when those guys saw that the alchemy products they were most proud of were successfully copied by me.

Chames couldn't help but exclaimed, alarmed the other alchemists, who put down their work and surrounded them.

Is this the result of you staying until midnight last night?It's really awesome.

It's so beautiful, just like a crystal.

Congratulations, in this way, our Alchemy House's status in the Duke's heart will greatly increase.

How did you do it?Can you tell me?

Kaimo nodded and said, "We all know that the composition of glass and river sand are very similar. The colors of glass burned from river sand in different places are different because they contain impurities."Either find a way to remove impurities or find a way to get purer sand.Everyone is trying in this direction, and so is me.The success of alchemy this time was largely due to accident.I chose the fine white sand from Liuye Town and the sandstone from Zhulongling...

Everyone gathered around him and listened quietly. It was not until he finished telling that the alchemists all breathed out. So that's it, you're so thoughtful.

Crystals are rare and expensive gems, while colorless and transparent crystals are even rarer.

Only the cleanest and brightest glass can be called crystal glass. The King Capital Alchemy Association relies on this product to steadily surpass the Alchemy Shop of Chishui City. The golden dragon earned every year makes the Duke of Chishui City envious.

Now, this situation is about to change soon.

If Chames could understand the ingredients of snow powder and add the method of making acid from double stones, they would completely surpass the King Capital Alchemy Association. By then, those guys who only know how to look at people with their chins would have to lower their rooster-like heads.

Thinking of this, Kemostri's mood became even more pleasant.

Just as he was about to screen the materials for the second batch of crystal glass, a disciple hurried to him. Chief mentor, an envoy from the border town of the Western Frontier wanted to see you, and he brought a letter from the fourth prince Roland Wimbledon.

The fourth prince?Kaimo frowned and thought for a while, it seemed that there was indeed such a person in the Gray Castle royal family.

He knew very little about the aristocrats. In his impression, these people were both ignorant and ignorant, and would only fight for power and wealth.

What's wrong with him looking for me?

I don't know, the messenger said that as long as you read the letter, you will naturally understand what Your Highness means.

... The chief alchemist showed an extremely impatient look. The content of the letter must be either recruiting himself for a lot of money or scolding alchemy for being a demonic trick.

But since the other party is a prince, the basic etiquette must be maintained. Take me to see him and let him get out when I get the letter!

Yes, Chief Mentor.
