Chapter 964: Lessons From Old Man Piton

Old man Piton's private laboratory is in a secret basement in the residential area of ​​the heavy factory.

It seems that this place was originally used as a warehouse for stacking materials. I don't know when it was converted into this by old man Piton.

Old man Piton's laboratory is as sloppy as his lifestyle.

The whole laboratory is filled with a strong smell of engine oil. Sean doubts whether this old man can live for three thousand years.

Because of being in such a harsh environment for a long time, coupled with the erosion of cells by heavy metal elements, even if he is a second-level magician, he will inevitably be affected by the shortening of his lifespan.

In fact, the reason why Piton was moved by Sean's 10,000 magic coins was because this old man was in urgent need of money.

In this world, there is almost nothing that money can't buy.

If there is enough money, even life can be extended.

As Sean guessed, old man Piton's health is extremely poor.

If the theoretical life span of a second-level magician is three thousand years, then this old man is lucky to live to two thousand five hundred years old.

The bad experimental environment and the lack of attention to hygiene and maintenance have made the old man's hair wither and his body functions wither.

Old man Piton is 2671 years old this year.

The reason why he can live to this day is also related to the large amount of life-extending potions and natural treasures that he bought and took.

Alchemists are almost the richest group of magicians of the same level in the wizard world.

After deducting the cost, Piton can earn about 7,000 magic coins from the business of Sean that he took.

Which second-level magician can get rich so easily in the plane war?

Old man Piton makes a living by his skills.

If he really wants to be cruel and force his life to be extended, old man Piton can even change his life form and become a lich of the undead clan.

Then he can enjoy a life span of ten thousand years.

It's just that few orthodox magicians are willing to do so.

The change of life form is not as simple as it sounds, except for a certain probability of failure.

Another major factor restricting the number of liches is that after other magicians in the wizard world are converted into undead, the elemental power they master will also be distorted into the power of death. The number of undead magicians in the wizard world is not increasing, and elemental magicians are the largest category.

Old man Piton is a fire elementalist. If he is converted into a lich and loses his original pure fire origin, even if he has special undead means such as netherfire, his alchemy skills will definitely be greatly reduced.

I don't know if it is an unspoken rule in the wizard world. After coming to the Sky City, Sean also didn't see the lich.

Those who can appear here are all pure "humans".

With a purple thorn cigar in his mouth, billowing thick smoke, old man Piton quickly entered the working state after coming to this underground laboratory.

Long-term smoking of spicy cigars is not good for old man Piton's health.

But the old man doesn't seem to care about his life at all. Although his health is extremely poor, he can't change some bad habits.

This may also be related to the fact that old man Piton has no descendants or apprentices.

If there is a close younger generation, he can more or less control him.

Old man Piton is now living purely for himself.

He does whatever he wants, which is also cool.

After old man Piton entered the working state, Sean was of course not idle.

He originally had some experience in combining the construction of puppets with magic alchemy technology. Now there is old man Piton who has extremely rich alchemy skills. Why shouldn't he get close to learn?

Maybe because there is no apprentice, old man Piton turned a blind eye to Sean's stealing behavior.

His alchemy skills cannot be brought with him when he is born or taken with him when he dies.

In addition to handing in the Arcane Light and making a contribution to the wizard civilization.

It is not a loss to have more clever apprentices like Sean.

The transformation of the constructed puppet by old man Piton is really not empty.

Sean can see that this old man does not understand the construction of the Nesser civilization, but it does not prevent old man Piton from upgrading Yuli's puppet according to his own design and ideas.

"Ding Ding Dang Dang!" While making drastic changes to the constructed puppet, seeing that Sean gave enough money, old man Piton also taught him some private goods.

"The energy beam weapons of technological civilizations are more powerful and more unstable than the magic devices of our wizard world, but they are more convenient to activate."

"I see that you have added a small energy converter suitable for space fortresses to the constructed puppet of this little slave girl. This is a good idea."

"But your steps are still too short. Why not be more radical?"

"I added a four-section elemental rocket thruster of the war airship to the back of this red puppet."

"And its energy core has been replaced with the standard crystal of the Light Prism Fortress. At that time, the power it drives will definitely be stronger!" Old man Piton slapped the metal surface of the Flame constructed puppet and said.

"But in this case, will it be accompanied by a higher risk factor during use?" Sean asked with a layer of white sweat on his forehead.

Old man Piton glanced at Sean and asked, "Is the plane war you participated in dangerous?"

Seeing Sean nodded, old man Piton said, "That's it! There is no such thing as absolute safety."

"Isn't she your slave? Developing her combat value as much as possible is what you should consider."

"Could it be that you kid..." Old man Piton looked back and forth at Sean and Yuli in a teasing manner, until Yuli's face turned red.

Sean was very thick-skinned, and there was nothing unusual this time.

Old man Piton was not a particularly boring person. After teasing Sean, the old man continued, "I have studied a lot of things about technological civilizations over the years."

"Don't be fooled by the fact that technological civilizations can create combat units comparable to level 2 or even level 3, but the inherent physical weakness of their civilization creatures is the biggest shortcoming that cannot be ignored."

"A group of creatures below level 1, with the assistance of the technological system, suddenly gained the power of level 2 or 3. Can they be considered true level 2 or 3 creatures?!"

"Hehe, on the battlefield, you just need to aim and shoot , it may be just a spell of the first-level power level, hitting the energy system or other important nodes of the mecha, which may directly scrap a third-level mecha. "

"But even if the magic shield is removed, a first-level attack method is absolutely impossible to kill a third-level magician in our wizard world."

"One of the disadvantages of technological civilization mecha is instability."

"I will help you thicken the key parts of this puppet, but if you want to avoid danger absolutely, the best way is to keep her from entering the battlefield." Old man Piton taught Sean.
