250th Master Mara
In the tallest spire standing in the city of Anjost, Grand Duke Edwina gently pushed open a carved wooden door and looked at the old female elf who was using a strange device to observe the sky, her hair was pure white , the face has been a little loose.
"Master Mara, good morning!" Grand Duke Edwina greeted softly.
"Grand Duke Edwina, the morning star is very bright this morning, which means that today's fortune will be very good. I will start to try to refine the 'soul-quenching agent' in a while." Master Mara withdrew from the strange device. He turned his head to look at Grand Duke Edwina and said with a smile.
"It's been two years since you developed the 'Soul Quenching Secret Potion', how's the progress?" Grand Duke Edwina heard that Master Mara decided whether or not to try refining the medicinal agent today through his fortune, and he had already roughly guessed the development in his heart. The progress is not ideal.
"Grand Duke Edwina, if I can develop the 'Soul Quenching Agent' in my lifetime, I will be worthy of the title of master given by the elves." Master Mara shook his head slightly and sighed.
Master Mara is an honorary master. There is no real master class among alchemists. There are two ways that the world can be called masters, that is, honorary masters. One is based on the materials used by senior alchemists. An alchemist who forcibly refines a master-level alchemy work at a price. This type of senior alchemist has special research on a certain master-level alchemy work, and forcibly refines it through a large number of master-level formula materials regardless of cost, with extremely low success. Get a master-level alchemy work with high rate and extremely high scrap rate of materials.
Another kind of honorary master is an alchemist who has made significant contributions to alchemy by studying alchemy formulas to obtain new and useful formulas, and Master Mara is such an honorary master.
Master Mara has researched a variety of alchemy formulas that are of practical use to elves, especially in pharmacy, she has a natural sensitivity, and now the 'soul quenching agent' she is researching is funded by Grand Duke Edwina According to a study, the purity of the soul is improved through potions to help druids improve their strength faster.
"Master Mara, look at this." Grand Duke Edwina took out a bottle of blue 'elf perfume', which was one of the forty bottles of blue 'elf perfume' that Carrie had delivered to her early in the morning. bottle.
Master Mara took the blue 'elf perfume', put it in front of his eyes and looked through the bottle to see the liquid in the bottle and said, "This is a bottle of 'elf perfume' that comes from a flash of inspiration, and it uses the most common one. Material!"
Grand Duke Edwina listened to Master Mara's judgment quietly, with a hint of weirdness in her expression.
Master Mara gently opened the cap of the blue 'Elf Perfume' bottle, put it in front of her nose and sniffed lightly. After a while, her expression became very excited, as if the thing she was after appeared in front of her eyes at once. After reclosing,
His eyes suddenly sharpened, and he turned to look at Grand Duke Edwina and said, "Pure soul! Which master's work is this, who used ordinary elf perfume formula to make 'elf perfume' that can purify the soul?"
"Have you found anything in this bottle of 'Elf Perfume'? Does it have any implications for your research?" Grand Duke Edwina did not answer Master Mara's question, but instead asked.
"Grand Duke Edwina, wait a minute, I will do some tests to find out, but after I have done the test, this bottle of 'elf perfume' will be used up, do you decide to let me test it?" He was eager to try, but still asked the Grand Duke Edwina softly to confirm whether she should use this precious bottle of 'elf perfume' with special value.
"Master Mara, you can test, if it's not enough, I still have it here!" Grand Duke Edwina waved indifferently and said.
The only reason why the Grand Duke Edwina is so valuable to this kind of blue 'elf perfume' that has never appeared in the outside world is so generous is that Abel refined forty bottles in one night, and in the morning she Through her talent, she can sense that the eldest daughter Carrie is in a very good mood. With her understanding of Carrie, it must be a benefit. That is to say, the blue 'elf perfume' that Abel refined in one night must exceed Forty bottles.
Master Mara didn't show any more politeness. She came to the alchemy table with the 'Elf Perfume', poured a portion of the 'Elf Perfume' into ten crystal test tubes, and dropped different liquids into each. The test tube performed 'extremely fast fermentation', and soon the ten crystal test tubes showed different colors.
"No, it's impossible!" Master Mara shook the crystal test tube in her hand vigorously, as if she was not satisfied with the results in front of her. She dipped a little of the liquid in one of the test tubes with her fingers, put it in her mouth, and then Spit out quickly, and pick up another crystal test tube.
Grand Duke Edwina found that Master Mara's mood was a bit wrong, and said softly, "Master Mara, if there is trouble with the test, you can test it slowly, don't worry."
"Grand Duke Edwina, please give me another bottle of 'Elf Perfume'!" Master Mara put down the crystal test tube in his hand and turned back and asked Grand Duke Edwina.
"'Elf Perfume' is enough for you to test. If you have any questions, I can call the alchemist who made 'Elf Perfume' and answer your questions face to face." Grand Duke Edwina took out another bottle of blue 'Elf Perfume' handed over to Master Mara, and said.
"Grand Duke Edwina, please respect this master who made 'elf perfume'. If I have any doubts, I will go to him and ask him for advice, instead of asking the master to come to me!" Master Mara Seriously, after saying this, she started another test work.
At this moment, Grand Duke Edwina seemed to have underestimated the blue 'elf perfume' that she thought was helpful for her practice. Maybe what she saw in the eyes of the alchemist was a little different from what she saw, waiting for the test results of Master Mara You will know when you come out.
Time passed a little bit, and the results of the test again calmed down the already crazy Mara. She poured out the liquid in the crystal test tube, and then began to clean the crystal test tube, cleaning it very carefully. During the cleaning process, she Her expression became calmer and calmer. After cleaning up all the alchemy tools, she also calmed down completely and became the wise alchemist again.
"Grand Duke Edwina, this master is very scary. From my test just now, I know that the materials he uses are the most common materials, but he maximizes the effect of each material." Here, Master Mara has confirmed that the alchemist who made the blue 'elf perfume' is at least an honorary master alchemist. When it comes to the effect of materials, she shows an incomprehensible look.
"It may not be accurate to say that it can be used to the extreme. It seems that the effect of the material itself has exceeded the effect of the material itself. He may have increased the number of materials in order to obtain the maximum effect!" Master Mara said with some uncertainty, because the strength of strengthening materials The quantity is equal to the ratio of all the materials to be adjusted. This is not simply to increase all the materials in the same proportion, but to reformulate the formula and find the balance between the various materials. This is almost to develop a kind of New recipe too.
"Especially at the last flash of inspiration, while forcibly raising the level of 'elf perfume', it also activated the effects of all materials. However, as for the effect that can purify the soul, I still don't know how to get it." Master Mara paused and asked again, "Which master's handwriting is this?"
"His name is Bennett, and he's a junior alchemist who just learned alchemy." Grand Duke Edwina didn't want to reveal Abel's identity, but just introduced Abel's pseudonym.
"How can he be a junior alchemist? If he is a junior alchemist, how did he achieve a flash of inspiration? How did he handle the materials? How did he readjust the formula?" Master Mara kept asking questions. But she didn't want an answer from Grand Duke Edwina, but asked, "Where is he? Can I go see him?"
Grand Duke Edwina nodded and said, "Yes, I have arranged Bennett in the city, and Master Mara can go at any time."
At this time, Grand Duke Edwina did not tell Master Mara that there were dozens of bottles of blue 'elf perfume' in the package, much less would Abel make more than 40 bottles in just one night. Tell her about the blue 'elf perfume'.
