Chapter 194 Fantasy Alchemy

The flying stone technology is a brand new technology for Purficott that she has never been exposed to before.

This lack of contact is not only due to the flying stone technology itself, but also because its production principle is something that Purficott has never understood.

For example, you used to use water or oil as a solvent when making alchemy potions, but suddenly one day you get a formula that tells you to use brass as the base. You will be as confused as a monk.

In Purficott's view, the same goes for the flying stone, because it is a fantasy element.

The so-called fantasy elements are a concept gradually proposed by alchemists after the Industrial Revolution, specifically referring to substances or elements that do not exist at all in the real world.

Maybe you would say that the things created by alchemists did not exist in this world before? Why not call those things fantasy elements?

The reason is simple. The things created by alchemists also have a basis in reality and comply with the laws of real physics.

For example, alloys with special properties. The alloy itself is something that has never appeared before, but the materials that make up the alloy exist in the real world. The alchemist just combined two originally unrelated materials.

But the fantasy element is different. It does not exist in reality, but only exists in fantasy.

In the real world, there is no material that can meet this condition, and it is impossible to produce it.

But is it true that the utopian alchemy project cannot be realized?

If it couldn't be realized, why would the jade record record the manufacturing technology of such a fantasy element as the flying stone?

Because of this, most of the topics studied by alchemists in the classical alchemy era were fantasies and had no possibility of realization.

Therefore, alchemy also has a distinction between realism and utopianism.

For example, Flying Stone is a imaginary material that can make steel "lighter" than air and then float.

Among them, realist alchemists pay more attention to reality. They no longer pursue goals and topics that may seem beautiful but are actually unrealistic, but instead stay closer to reality and life.

The utopian alchemists gradually recognized the reality, and most people gave up their unrealistic fantasies and turned to the side of realism.

As a result, alchemy developed vigorously after the Industrial Revolution, and also provided great assistance to industrial production and technological development.

Before the industrial revolution, alchemists actually had no clear idea of ​​what they could and could not create. Most alchemists in the classical era were more of a fussy person when making inventions. With romantic imagination.

With the development of the industrial revolution and the rise of modern natural sciences, people have gradually realized the nature of the world and begun to summarize and organize the objective laws related to the world to explain the operating logic of the world.

Purficott read the information provided by Jade Record with these questions in mind, and then suddenly realized that there was indeed something that could break the boundary between fantasy and reality, making the fantasy element no longer a fantasy, but a reality that could be created.

The answer is actually obvious. This thing is the Philosopher's Stone that makes the impossible possible and can replace all materials in alchemy.

"Philosopher's Stone inlaid with the Midas Rod" "Materials: Legend"

“Craftsmanship: Excellent”

"Effect: Used in alchemy rituals, it improves the ritual effect by 120% and increases the success rate by 40%. It can ignore the principle of equivalent exchange and replace any alchemy ritual materials or media."

"Evaluation: With the Philosopher's Stone, you can be a master of alchemy even if you are a pig."

This is the Midas Philosopher's Rod in the hand of Purficott, with a fiery red Philosopher's Stone embedded in it.

Although it is only one part of the Philosopher's Stone that was split in half, its ability to ignore the principle of equivalent exchange and replace any alchemy ritual material or medium is real.

And with this, Purficott can use the power of the Philosopher's Stone to transform non-existent fantasy elements into reality.

This made Purficott couldn't help but sigh: "It is indeed a philosopher's egg born from a miracle. The red liquid, which means a miracle, does have incredible power."

Having made this clear, for Purficott, it means that a door to a new world has opened in front of her. The once fantasy alchemy is about to become a skill that can be transformed into reality in the hands of Purficott. technology.

"If I announce this, I'm afraid all the alchemists around the world will go crazy, right?" Purficott scratched his forehead with the Midas Rod, unsure of how much shock this news would bring.

After all, although there were countless legends about the Philosopher's Stone in the past, and many well-known alchemists in history claimed that they had successfully created the Philosopher's Stone, in this era, except for Perficott's hand, which was broken in half, Apart from this piece, there is no confirmed news of the existence of the Philosopher's Stone.

Most of the alchemists in history who claimed to possess the Philosopher's Stone were unable to do one thing, and that was immortality.

One of the two most notable abilities of the Philosopher's Stone is that it can be used to make elixirs that allow people to gain immortality.

You can't even achieve immortality, how could you possibly create the Philosopher's Stone.jpg

Because of this, when Purficott claimed that she had completed her parents' research project and successfully created the Philosopher's Stone, most people scorned her and even thought she was just trying to please others.

It wasn't until she really proved that she really owned the Philosopher's Stone under the witness of the investigators sent by the Alchemist Association and the Noble Council that the matter was finally concluded, and she successfully obtained the Royal Charter of Alchemist. and the titles and titles of master alchemists.

But what exactly the Philosopher's Stone can do is unknown to everyone.

Even Perficott, who owns the Philosopher's Stone, has only used it as a universal ritual plug-in in the past few years. He still only applies it to real-life alchemy and has no use. It breaks the boundary between fantasy and reality.

But now, when Purficott realized that the Philosopher's Stone could break the boundary between fantasy and reality, she suddenly discovered that she could actually do more things.

Not only that, if he could make good use of this, Purficott felt that he might be able to attract more alchemists to the north, and even open up a new alchemy school and become the founder of the sect.

After all, if you can turn your dreams into reality, there is so much that can be done.
