Section 1712 Different Customization Directions
Not long ago, Antonio brought news about Gushiro.
Gushiro was also willing to accept the task of refining, but he was a tune-combinationist, so he was slow in refining any work, and he only planned to take on one of the refining tasks.
In other words, the refining tasks of the remaining two became Angel's tasks.
Gushiro probably felt embarrassed to push the two refining tasks to Angel, a "newcomer" in the R&D institute, so he asked Angel to choose which two tasks to refine first, and the remaining one would be given to him.
Gushiro's meaning was very clear. Since he only refined one of the three alchemy requests, it would be okay to leave the most difficult one to him.
However, which one to leave for Gushiro to refine depends on Angel's choice.
In the past few days, Angel has been studying the requirements of the three people for customization. With his own simulated refining and the alchemy drawings he drew, he has roughly formed a preference in his mind.
...
As the communicator lit up again, Antonio's light blue light and shadow appeared in front of Angel.
"Mr. Pat, good afternoon." Antonio was as elegant and polite as usual, "Sir, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Angel did not speak, but stretched out his finger and pointed at the table.
Antonio looked down and saw three manuscripts on the laboratory table in front of Angel.
Antonio did not feel unfamiliar with these three manuscripts. Because he gave them to Angel. The manuscripts came from the top three of the Rising Star Competition. Each manuscript represented their request for alchemy customization.
Antonio's eyes flashed with understanding: "Sir, have you decided which two refining tasks to choose?"
Angel nodded and put the manuscript on the far left in front of Antonio: "This one is for Master Gushiro, and the other two refining tasks will be done by me."
Antonio lowered his head and wanted to see Angel's choice.
"Trom's custom?" When he saw the refining task that was about to be handed over to Gu Xiluo, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Sir, are you sure you want to give this refining task to Master Yueyin?"
Angel nodded and said: "Yes... You look surprised?"
Antonio shook his head: "Not surprised, it's your freedom to choose which one to refine. I just feel a little emotional."
"Why do you feel emotional?"
"Because when I asked Trom about the refining requirements, he told me eagerly that he hoped you could refine it for him." Antonio's face flashed a trace of regret: "It's a pity that you didn't choose him."
Antonio paused: "Since you have confirmed your choice, I will inform Master Yueyin of the situation now."
After that, Antonio bowed and his figure slowly disappeared.
After Antonio left, Angel turned his attention back to the three manuscripts in front of him. From left to right, they correspond to the custom requirements of Trom, Onassis and Xiliu respectively.
In fact, comparing the demands of these three people, Trom's request is relatively simple.
Why is it simple? Because Trom's request is to refine a piece of clothing-like protective gear. He even took the initiative to provide the fur of Sisomi as the main material... If all alchemy customizations are like Trom, even the main materials are provided by themselves, it is estimated that all alchemists will feel relieved.
However, Angel still did not choose Trom, and the reason is also very simple: it is not suitable.
Angel is best at enchantment, which uses external forces to make magic materials play a better effect. In addition, the corresponding magic patterns and magic energy arrays also require the cooperation of the corresponding material properties. You can't engrave whatever you want, and there are very large restrictions.
Kasisomi's fur is born with the special ability of absolute defense. When Trom was in the competition, he also used Kasisomi's fur many times to avoid fatal attacks.
In other words, even if it is not refined, Kasisomi's fur is already a semi-finished product.
It is difficult to find a matching magic array in the book for this kind of semi-finished product. Unless you actively adjust the pattern structure of the magic array, it is possible to reconcile with it.
He has been writing all kinds of magic data and pattern structures on the manuscript paper these days, just to see if he can refine the props Trom needs.
The answer is: it can be refined.
However, it may take several months, or even longer, to adjust the magic pattern structure.
The energy and time spent are really disproportionate.
Of course, Angel can also refine it by force without adjusting the magic pattern structure. But the final effect, the enchanted magic array and the defensive ability of Kasisomi's fur, will complement each other or be unnecessary. It is hard to say.
After thinking for a few days, Angel finally decided to give up refining Trom's customization.
Angel casually summoned a small flame and burned the manuscript paper on the far left to ashes. Now, in front of him, there is only the manuscript paper belonging to the customization request of Xiliu and Onassis.
There are three customization directions proposed by Xilu: the first is to refine a potion that can permanently protect him from the influence of sleepiness. This customization direction has been rejected by Midora and Regina.
The second customization direction is that Xiliu hopes to refine an item that can have a positive effect on her sleepiness defect. In other words, no matter what is refined, as long as there is a positive effect, it will be fine. Because the scope is vague, there is a lot of room for play, but it is hard to say whether Xiliu can be satisfied in the end. After all, the "positive effect" she proposed is just a personal subjective feeling. It is difficult for outsiders to know what kind of positive effect Xiliu wants.
The third customization direction is a weapon.
In fact, Angel has already made a decision in his mind about the customization for Xiliu. So he just took a look and made sure that there were no omissions, then put it aside and looked at Onassis's refining requirements.
Onassis has two customization directions, and the first customization direction is also a weapon.
However, Onassis made many requirements for this weapon, which are weird, complex and full of contradictions, such as "condensing in water, bursting in fire", "projecting starlight, reflecting sunlight" and so on...
Angel was very confused, which reminded him of some allusions that Jon told him, such as "colorful black".
Antonio said: "For this kind of customization, just choose one of the requirements and refine it. For example, refine an ice weapon that can condense in water, or refine a fire weapon that bursts out when bathed in fire."
It doesn't matter if the other party is not satisfied with the refinement. After all, alchemists are the best. It doesn't matter if they like it or not.
Onassis's first customization direction was too complicated, and the requirements filled a whole page, which was very annoying. However, his second requirement was very concise, with only one sentence:
Any props, as long as it is related to philosophy.
