Chapter 399 Conditions for Crafting Magic Stones
The Philosopher's Stone is a special product of alchemy, and it has extremely terrifying effects;
It can turn any metal into pure gold and can also create an elixir of immortality, making those who drink it never die.
Moreover, the pure gold transformed using the Philosopher's Stone is not temporary, but permanent.
Furthermore, the transformed pure gold is indistinguishable from real pure gold.
This involves a fundamental change.
In the wizarding world, many people want to craft Philosopher's Stones, but few succeed in the end.
Finally, it was created by the famous alchemist and opera enthusiast Nicolas Flamel.
It was thanks to the Philosopher's Stone that Nicolas Flamel lived for over six hundred years.
Through the knowledge passed down through generations, Li Qin learned something that no one else knew: Nicolas Flamel's Philosopher's Stone was not in its perfect form.
It is a semi-finished product.
Drinking an elixir of immortality made from a genuine Philosopher's Stone not only grants a long life, but also prevents the body from becoming as brittle as Nicolas Flamel.
Instead, they are just like normal people.
As for why Nicolas Flamel didn't forge a real Philosopher's Stone, Li Qin suspected there were two possibilities;
One method is that even Nicolas Flamel didn't know the true method of crafting the Philosopher's Stone:
Another possibility is that Nicolas Flamel dared not, just like Li Qin is now, even if he knew the true method of making the Philosopher's Stone.
But he still couldn't make up his mind.
Because to create a true Philosopher's Stone, countless living beings are needed as materials.
This being refers to a higher intelligent being:
That is, people!
This is quite similar to the process of crafting the Philosopher's Stone in Fullmetal Alchemist.
According to the knowledge passed down through generations, the birth of humankind is a miracle in itself, and there exists something mysterious within the soul.
That is ether.
This is essential for crafting magic stones.
And the required quantity is quite large.
Although Li Qin was cold and even selfish, he could never get past the mental hurdle of using countless living beings to refine magic stones, so the matter was always put on hold.
Of course, another reason is that even if Li Qin mastered the method of refining magic stones, given his current alchemical skills, he would still be unable to achieve his goal.
It's not possible to successfully refine it for the time being.
"Forget about the magic stone for now. Maybe we can think of other ways to solve the pagoda energy problem in the future."
Li Qin sighed.
Although he said that, a cold look flashed in his eyes.
If he still can't find a solution in the future, he will definitely put the crafting of magic stones back on the agenda.
As for the reluctance to use living beings as materials, there are solutions.
Li Qin subconsciously glanced in the east direction.
He couldn't bring himself to be so ruthless to his own people, but there were some very suitable "materials" in the East China Sea.
If it came to dealing with them, Li Qin could grit his teeth and do it.
Besides the ones in the east, there are also some "monkeys" that Li Qin thinks are still usable for refining magic stones.
After completing the alchemical pagoda, Li Qin rested for a long time.
Once he felt fully recovered, he prepared to forge the next alchemical item.
That is an automatic writing pen;
Compared to alchemy pagodas, crafting mechanical pens is much simpler.
Since the pen body has already been forged in advance, it now needs to be outlined with pure gold and mithril to create runes and magical patterns.
Finally, activate it with magic.
However, both the number of runes and the magic patterns have been simplified countless times.
So in just a short while, Li Qin had already crafted five automatic pens.
"I didn't expect there to be so much pure gold and mithril left. If I have any ideas in the future, this should be enough to last me for a while."
Li Qin carefully put away the remaining pure gold and mithril.
Then he picked up the mechanical pencil he had just made and began to examine it.
As Li Qin infused his magic into one of the mechanical pens, he then took out a piece of white paper.
Then a miraculous thing happened.
The mechanical pencil flew straight to the white paper and then began to write on it.
The mechanical pen writes very quickly.
When he finished writing, Li Qin picked up the blank paper.
When he saw the contents of the white paper clearly, a look of satisfaction immediately appeared in his eyes;
On the previously blank paper, several lines of neat handwriting were now written, which were exactly what Li Qin had been thinking.
From the moment he thought of writing down the content with a mechanical pen, the whole process didn't take much time, which shows that the speed of the mechanical pen is not low.
At least Li Qin's basic requirements have been met.
Moreover, Li Qin had just noticed that the mechanical pen was writing in traditional Chinese characters. This way, once the novels he had read in his memory were reproduced, he could...
It can then be published directly in Hong Kong newspapers without worrying about font issues.
"After planning for so long, we can finally officially begin."
A glint of light flashed in Li Qin's eyes.
He then activated the five crafted automatic writing pens with his magic without hesitation.
Then he activated the divine power, connecting the five pens to it.
Li Qin no longer needed to worry about the rest.
Under the control of the god, these five automatic pens will tirelessly replicate what he remembers day and night.
This time, Li Qin chose three mechanical pens to reproduce the three great classic books, while the remaining two pens were used to reproduce the novels.
Looking at the five pens that had already started writing incessantly on the white paper, Li Qin's eyes flashed with anticipation.
If he were to control those pens himself, he wouldn't be able to do it so efficiently.
At most, Li Qin can only multitask at a time.
Despite possessing the powerful computing ability of a god, it can easily control five pens simultaneously, and that's not even the limit.
Li Qin just felt there was no need to refine more, since he had plenty of time.
Five pens are enough.
"I've been busy for so long, I'm starving. Let's eat first. As for replenishing the space, we can do that after we've eaten and rested."
Li Qin had been working continuously in the underground chamber for several hours.
My stomach is already rumbling.
He immediately entered the suitcase space; by then, it was too late to cook a meal.
It should be said that Li Qin couldn't wait any longer. He took out a lot of food from his storage ring and began to eat heartily.
I don't know if it was because creating the pagoda space and maintaining its operation consumed too much magic power.
Or perhaps it's because they feel relieved after finally resolving something that had been on their minds for so long.
In the end, Li Qin ate more than usual at that meal.
That is, he has a pagoda space that can produce countless resources every day; otherwise, based on his salary, he wouldn't even be able to afford to eat his fill every day.
"Finally, I'm full!"
By the time Li Qin had finished eating and drinking, nearly an hour had passed.
This shows how much he ate this time.
Li Qin put down his chopsticks, leaned back in his chair, and his face was full of satisfied satisfaction.
