The Defeated Dragon

Magic books are not the same as knight novels.

Knight novels are storybooks created by the noble aristocracy in order to earn living expenses, and are aimed at a large number of readers, in pursuit of fun, refreshment and bizarre.

Magic books are very similar to dissertations, mainly research reports and experimental notes of magicians.

Most of the magic books are poorly readable, and some are even upside down and the logic is chaotic. Moreover, the printing quality is relatively poor. Even many magic books are circulated in manuscripts. Not many people are willing to buy them. Naturally, they have no money to send to publishers for printing.

Fifty-six magic books sent by Elkson.

Twenty-one of them are manuscripts.

"The Eighteen Kinds of Red Viper Snake Venom Extraction Diary Slitter Truth of Red Viper Island. Is this book really worth reading?" He looked at the manuscript in his hand, feeling a bit loss, such a The book actually required two silver coins. "Forget it, I bought a manual about snake venom."

After turning a few pages, he lost his patience and stuffed the book into the gem space.

Continue to open the next manuscript.

"Fredo's Fireball" is a book about how to release fireball and improve the technique of fireball. The author Fredo Truth is just a magic apprentice, and the only magic he can learn is fireball. The book records that in order to expand his fireball, he tried more than 100 casting directions.

In the end, he completed the improvement of fireball so that it can be rubbed out through the back of his hand.

He called this improvement an epoch-making improvement, and he believed that he would promote the advent of the age of magic.

Unfortunately, this is a second-hand book, and there's another magician's feeling behind it. The magician left a mockery of disdain: "When you are an advanced magician, you will understand that any part of the body can be used as a casting medium. The difference is that the palm of the hand is faster."

"So this book is a negative textbook?" Liszt was rather speechless and threw it directly into the gem space.

Looking back and forth, most of the manuscripts are magical experimental content, which is of little value and is more suitable for stepping on the table.

When he turned to the last manuscript, he frowned suddenly.

The title is impressively "The Kennedy Alchemy Diary".

"It's another alchemy diary!" Liszt instantly remembered the wrecked treasure he had obtained. "In the original box, there was also an alchemy diary, which seemed to be called" Rudolph's Alchemy Diary ", and it was also the handwritten cover snake. , That's also a manuscript magic book. "

Converging, he began to look through the diary.

The author is a newly advanced magician. He uses many methods to guide magic, trying to turn a stone into gold under the influence of magic. To this end, he even melted down only seven gold coins. In order to observe the differences between gold coins and stones, he still did not work out a method of turning some stones into gold.

So this is also a negative textbook that keeps failing.

Closing the book, Liszt got up and went to the Valley of Fire and Workshop to find Elkson: "Do magicians like to study alchemy?"

Elkson put down his work and explained: "Baron Liszt, triangle theory is a truth recognized by magicians, so we always hope to find the most direct evidence to prove the truth of this theory. Is the best evidence. "

"why?"

"Because the process of turning stones into gold can be decomposed into two sets of steps. The material stones are first transformed into spirit by magic, and the spirit is transformed into physical gold again by magic. Therefore, turning stones into gold will strictly verify the triangle theory. True, this is one of the ideals that our magicians will pursue for life. "

"That's the case." Liszt felt a little contradictory. "Have you succeeded in your research?"

"I don't know, but many magicians believe that there were real alchemists in ancient times. They could make stones into gold."

"Why do you have to choose a stone to gold? If you want to test the triangle theory and refine the properties of other items, isn't it OK?"

Elkson smiled: "Baron Liszt, your understanding may be wrong. Alchemy is just a general term, and it is a hot spot to turn stone into gold. Because we magicians need a lot of money for experiments, they like to research points. Shi Chengjin wants to get enough wealth. "

He spread his hand a little helplessly: "But no one has refined other items, but they have never succeeded ... When I first became a wizard, I chose to study alchemy, and finally gave up.

Understand roughly what alchemy is all about.

Slightly disappointed, Liszt asked, "So many magicians create an alchemy diary?"

"Yes."

"Okay, you keep working, I won't bother you." He was about to go out and turned around again. "I gave you a bone fragment, did you research it?"

"Not too late to study."

"Research as soon as possible, I'm curious about this fragment."

"Of course, as long as I have time." He shook the crystal tube in his hand, meaning that he needed to make the potion of Fire Valley magic first.

...

Back at the castle, Liszt groaned.

Because of the decay of "Rudolph's Alchemy Diary", the knots that have arisen have disappeared. It turns out that magicians like tinkering with alchemy and writing alchemy diaries.

If it is really refined, it will not be transmitted in the form of manuscripts.

That magician will become a sacred and inviolable existence in the hearts of all magicians, side by side with the sun. I am afraid that the Dragon Knights will fight for him.

Heart knot dissipated.

Although relaxed for a while, this also shows that alchemy is probably just a beautiful imagination.

Numerous magicians have studied alchemy before and after, but did not get any useful information in the end. Seeing the difficulty of alchemy, getting rich overnight is still a dream.

For him, it also meant that the dream was ruined.

After a few moments of entanglement, he quickly adjusted his mindset: "Forget it ~ www.readwn.com ~ I am not a magician, what kind of alchemy is I studying." Throw "Kennedy Alchemy Diary" into the gem space.

Continue to read the next magic book.

The manuscripts have been read, and the rest are printed.

There are three possibilities for printing magic books. One is that the author has the money and prints at his own expense; the other is that the book is valuable and the magician is willing to buy it; the other is that the book is interesting and the noble is willing to buy it.

"Wild Elf Worm Market Sale Price", "The Blind Windblade Wolf King", "How to Safely Live through the Midoro Mangroves", "Highland Baita Seeing Carrick Truth" ...

These magic books are obviously much better than manuscripts.

Liszt picked up the "Wild Fairy Worm Market Sale Price" with great interest. The magician who wrote the book lived in Iron City, the capital of Iron and Steel Kingdom. There is a large wild elf trading market there, and the magician goes to the market every day to observe those wild elves.

"Interesting, a flytrap elf worm actually sold for 3,600 gold coins, because the mosquito flies in the city of steel flooded and the flytrap was in short supply."
