Release that Witch

......

When Camo Spoel returned home, the sky was completely dark.

After dinner with his family, he returned to his study and wrote the crystal recipe and selection of crystal glass into his book "The Gate of Alchemy", which recorded his journey from apprentice to chief alchemist. It also includes all the alchemy formulas summarized in the Chishuicheng Alchemy Workshop over the years.

Kemo believes that with this book, he will be named in history, even after thousands of years, those alchemists will deeply remember his name.

Until the candle flame approached the base, Kemer put down the quill and prepared to undress and sleep.

Suddenly, he remembered that there was still a letter from the prince that was not dismantled. He blinked only the candle with the length of his fingernails. He decided to use the last time to read the letter, and then verbally replied to the messenger half of the candle tail tomorrow. Enough for him to write dozens of words, but enough to read a worthless letter.

Unpacking the envelope, there are three thin sheets of paper inside. The first page is a common guest, introducing your title and territory. Kemer even doesn't bother to look at it and jumps directly to the second page.

The content of the second page made him a little surprised. It was neither a recruitment nor a reprimand, but a strange pattern of five lines. If you look closely, each line consists of three sentences.

Oh, a little meaning, he smiled, no matter what the purpose of the prince, at least it would be a mystery.

He swept the first line.

The nitrate is retorted to form nitric acid.

Saltpeter... dry distillation... acid, are some of the terms of alchemy. Wait a minute, Kemo’s heart suddenly stunned. Isn’t this one of the double-stone acid methods in the Alchemy Square?

The acid solution from the saltpeter must be collected in a special container and looks like ordinary water vapor, which is difficult to attract attention. But it is very corrosive, not only can ablate the skin, but even dissolve some metal.

Is this... actually an alchemy formula? Is it difficult to get into the town? There is also an alchemist?

He quickly moved his line of sight to the next line

If the first sentence surprised him, the second sentence was incredible.

It consists of a bunch of inexplicable symbols, which are juxtaposed together and emit two equations. Kemer frowned, he had never seen such a weird symbol.

Further down, the third sentence seems to be the interpretation of the second sentence, including the names and meanings of those symbols. To be honest, he still can't figure it out after reading it. The words of those mouths seem to be all words, he needs After reading it many times, the words can be linked to the symbols. However, the meaning of the whole sentence still makes him unable to understand.

Just then, the flame of the candle swayed twice and went out.

Hell! Kemo snorted in his heart and took a candle out of the drawer without hesitation.

......

When the second candle burned in half, the hand of the chief alchemist holding the stationery was shivering.

The letter paper, which seems to have no content, has spent several times more time than normal reading.

The five-line style on the second page of stationery is actually an alchemy formula!

If this is the case, an outstanding master of alchemy, it is not unthinkable to sum up the five formulas by personal strength. However, these five formulas, in addition to the first method of acid production, all echo each other. The recurrence of certain vocabulary words constitutes a seemingly balanced cycle.

Nitric acid reacts with silver to form silver nitrate, water and nitric oxide.

Silver nitrate reacts with iron to form ferrous nitrate and silver.

Silver nitrate reacts with copper to form copper nitrate and silver.

Copper nitrate reacts with iron to form ferrous nitrate and copper.

He also did the alchemical reaction of placing the silver rod in the acid. Some of the silver rods were clearly dissolved by the acid and disappeared into the invisible. This is the characteristic of acid, which corrodes everything. Credible, but vowed to say, because silver nitrate is dissolved in water, the surface seems to disappear, in fact, silver is only in another form, not annihilation.

How can this be?

No... Kemer shook his head. Obviously, the other side also expected his own ideas. These formulas echoed each other not by chance. He realized that the opportunity for the other party to verify themselves, whether it is silver, iron or copper, is a common mineral. If the alchemy is carried out according to the following formula, those silvers can be replaced again to prove that it is not annihilated, but still exists in the acid.

Seeing the neatly arranged formula on the paper, he feels that his breathing has become difficult. If these alchemy formulas can be established, the experience accumulated over the years, the efforts of the peers, and the "Golden Gate" All is just a joke!

"You sleep with your child, I go to the alchemy workshop!"

Can't take care of his wife's surprised eyes, Kemo put on his jacket and rushed into the night.

When he arrived at the Alchemy Square, he immediately called three disciples to tell him that he would conduct an alchemy test and let them order the torches and candles. The more the better. The order was quickly executed, and his long table was illuminated by fire. The disciples shuttled between the material room warehouse and the refining room to prepare test materials for the chief alchemist.

There are still a lot of acid in the saltpeter distillation, and the verification can start directly from the second line formula.

He took some acid and poured it into the glass, then placed the silver rod. As the reaction begins, the body is gradually corroded, accompanied by bubbles.

In the anxious waiting process, Kaimo smoothly unfolded the third page of stationery.

There is only one short sentence above: I just did a little work, I want to know more answers, come to the town.

Damn, this sentence is written equal to not writing! If you can really verify what is said on the letter, he is going to see the unknown master of alchemy. Otherwise, I will sleep hard in the days to come.

Until the bubble no longer emerges, he takes out the broken silver rod and puts a small piece of copper into the cup.

The incredible thing happened. The surface of the copper piece soon showed a little white shift, like the shell of a ladybug. The white spot grew bigger and bigger, slowly covering the whole copper piece, and the acid in the cup changed from colorless to blue. color.

It is exactly the same as described in the letter!

The white precipitate is silver, and the newly formed material copper nitrate is as soluble as water as silver nitrate, but its solution is blue.

Camo Spoel looked at the results in the cup and stood in the same place.

......

Early the next morning, when Chammes came to the alchemy workshop, he was shocked by the chief alchemist with dark circles and faces.

“Did you not sleep one night yesterday?” he was surprised. “For the second batch of crystal glass?”

Kemer shook his head and pulled Chammes to the long table. He asked tiredly: "You used to be my favorite disciple. I want to ask, what do you think of alchemy?"

"Oh...just like the ones you taught me," he noticed with glasses on the table, several of which contained solutions of different colors, one of which was sky blue and striking. Is this the reason why the chief adult did not sleep last night? Although Chames was full of confusion, he still replied honestly, "I also feel the same, the essence of alchemy is to find the truth of the world in disorder and chaos..."

"No, no, Chames, I am wrong," Kemer interrupted. "Everyone is wrong, alchemy is not the case."

it's not true……? Chames thinks that the other party is a bit strange. First, it is all-night alchemy. Now he asks some inexplicable questions. But before he asks further, the chief adult has said to himself: "Alchemy is more orderly than you and I imagine. It can even be said that the stereotype is the same as the plus one and two equals. No matter how it changes, the matter will not increase or disappear."

“Doesn't it increase or disappear? What are you talking about? Screening some common raw materials to create incredible new things is not something that alchemists often do!” He did not understand.

"Yeah, I thought so, until the lord of Bentham Town wrote me a letter..." Kemer Stoul patted him on the shoulder, but the words in his mouth made Chames a heartbreaker. "I will leave here soon, go to Bianbu Town to find the answer. You...will you and me go together?" (To be continued.
