Chapter 159 Magic Liquid
As Sean said, he asked the dwarves to scoop out the beer in the bathtub, and when the bathtub was empty, he chopped over with a few swords, completely chopping the bathtub into a pile of broken copper pieces.

Then let the dwarves pack up the pieces and head upstairs.

Bringing the dwarves to the smelting room, Sean asked the dwarves to throw all the pieces into the crucible of the smelting furnace and start smelting.

Extracting magical energy seems very high-end and complicated, but it is actually the same as most extraction processes. It uses a certain method to decompose those unnecessary substances, and separates those required substances to keep them.

However, magic energy still has its special features. First of all, it can only react with mental power, so in a sense, magic items are conscious, although it is very likely that it is just a very simple mechanical mind.

It's as if this magic bathtub can automatically refill the glass, and its consciousness is to keep the bathtub full of beer forever - this is Sean's speculation, probably similar to a computer program.

Like electrical energy, magic energy also needs a carrier, otherwise it will escape quickly. To avoid leakage of magic energy, there must be a container with good enough airtightness, and it must be made of high magic resistance material.

Various substances in nature, some have a high affinity with magic, such as mithril and fine gold, but most substances have magic resistance, which is the hindrance to the transmission of magic in the material, which is why magic items usually The reason why it can only be made with the special material of fine gold and mithril.

It's not that it can't be made with ordinary materials, but the effect is too poor, and the gain outweighs the gain.

Some substances have extremely high magic resistance, the most common ones are steel and ceramics.

The theme of Xiao En's smelting furnace is made of steel, but the biggest problem with the steel melting furnace is its low melting point. If the temperature is too high, it may be melted. It can only be used to melt some magic items with a low melting point, so Xiao En adopted a split structure, and specially installed a crucible for melting metal.

As the temperature of the smelting furnace rose, the smelting room quickly became unbearably hot, and all the dwarves were sweating profusely. Only Sean, who possessed the sun divinity, didn't care about the scorching room temperature.

He observed the situation of the smelting furnace, and finally the copper pieces in the crucible gradually began to melt.

As the red copper gradually dissolves and turns into molten copper, some dark red bubbles also begin to decompose gradually from the molten copper. They continue to drift inside the smelting furnace, forming dark red smoke, which is hidden in the firelight. If you look closely, you won't notice it at all.

Sean noticed it, and he pulled the mechanism to open the exhaust port of the crucible, and then dark red smoke spewed out, entering the separation chamber next to it.

Sean began to continuously operate the mechanism in the separation room to carry out further purification. There will always be some impurities mixed in the magic energy, which must be completely separated. He was not sure if the one he built in memory would work.

During the decomposition process, the magical energy shone with strange light in the separation chamber, and the air guide port discharged colorful bubbles from time to time, which were impurities mixed with magical energy. This was the first time for Xiao En to refine magic. It has been too long since the memory, although it is still complete, is no longer so vivid, so listening to the continuous weird sound of the smelting furnace, Xiao En couldn't help feeling up and down in his heart.

Isn't this thing going to explode?
He glanced at Alhaz in the mirror. The latter looked curiously at Xiao En's fuss, and didn't even have time to complain.

This guy is lucky, so he doesn't need to be so frightened.

He pressed the switch and began the final diversion work.

The purified magic energy entered the cooling room, and the dark red smoke flowed and condensed in the cooling tube, huh?Why doesn't this color feel right?

Sean clearly remembered that the liquid should be blue. Could it be that the magic energy is not pure enough?Speaking of which, is there any difference between chaotic magic power and ordinary magic power?

The color darkened further, and finally turned into a jet black color like ink.

It looks like a liquid, but it is actually a completely different form. It is more like a fluid, like ink in water, which spreads and flows. Once it is exposed to the air, it may evaporate and dissipate immediately. However, in a confined space , this energy presents a liquid-like form, which is the external form of magic energy in the material world, and can also be called the source of magic power.

The magic energy in this form cannot be used directly. The next step is to fuse the magic source and water into a magic liquid. The ratio is about 1:1, and the water is mainly used as a stabilizer.

The water is also pure water, extracted by Sean with a distiller. As the steam pipe was opened, the water vapor and the source of magic power were introduced into the last cooling chamber at the same time, and the two completely different substances gradually merged together. It was as black as ink The source of magic in his body also gradually turned into a dark blue strange liquid.

Sean opened the drainage tube and let the magic liquid flow into the bottle prepared below...

This process lasted for more than half an hour. Finally, there was no magic source coming out of the smelting furnace, and Xiao En also stopped the machine.

He looked at the final product, there were about 200ml of magic liquid, and Sean was extremely excited.

That's right, this thing is exactly the same as the bottle I saw in my dream, this is the power of magic!
"What is that?" Alhaz asked curiously.

"This is the legendary magic! The pure magic liquid extracted from magical objects."

"What are you going to do? Drink it?"

"Hehehe, I wouldn't be that stupid."

Sean clearly remembered that in the dream, Bergwood was very careful about this stuff, even in the face of a strong enemy, he didn't dare to drink it lightly, and only tried to drink it at the last moment when he wanted to die together.

It can be seen that this thing is likely to have side effects.

He carefully poured out a little in the test tube, about 20 milliliters, and put the rest of the magic liquid into his pocket.

"Number four, come with me."

Numbers one, two, and three had fallen asleep from too much beer, so the honor went to number four.

Sean took No. [-] downstairs and came to the open space outside the castle. No. [-] came over and looked at Sean ignorantly. He handed the test tube to No. [-].

"Drink it."

Number four drank it without any hesitation.
