The Lord of Ashes

When he came to the laboratory of his mentor Momodo again, he looked at Thain with interest several times with his pale yellow eyes.

"Jie Jie Jie, you little guy is quite capable of causing trouble."

"It's just a compulsory mission in the academy, but I came back with injuries." Mentor Mosheduo said in surprise to Thain.

Facing the instructor's ridicule, Thain lowered his head in embarrassment.

Before coming to his mentor, he had already been scolded by Lina.

Fortunately, there was no danger this time. After some inspections, there were no sequelae left.

It's just that his skin injuries will take some time to recover.

Including the scratch on the neck, it just looked scary, but in fact, except for the troublesome paralysis toxin caused by the blue moss, it was not a serious injury.

Faced with Thain's silence, Moshedo said nothing more.

But before entering the laboratory, he added: "Huh, I won't use body regeneration magic on you this time. You should feel the pain carefully and see if you will be so reckless in the future."

Mentor Mosheduo went directly into the laboratory and ignored Thain. However, Thain's two senior brothers and sisters stepped forward to check on him and inquire about his situation.

Thain took the opportunity to express to his senior sister Feier that he hoped to learn her techniques for making nutritional potions.

At the same time, he mentioned to his senior brother Zorro if he could take some time to teach him about alchemy.

Thain would naturally have to pay a certain price for asking his two senior brothers and sisters for help.

The magician always adheres to the principle of equal value transactions. As long as Boss can successfully sell the goods, Thane will have certain financial resources to pay the two senior brothers and sisters.

No matter how bad it is, Thain actually has something good in his hands.

Whether it is the magical beast crystal core of the saltwater giant crocodile or the low-level crystal core of the Blue-jawed Feather King, he can take it out as a reward to thank his two senior brothers and sisters.

Thain has long understood one thing. After all, money is something external to the body, and real power belongs entirely to oneself.

For magicians, knowledge is power.

Faced with Thain's request, senior sister Fei'er readily agreed.

The process of making nutritional potions is not complicated. On the contrary, Thain hopes to learn how to make nutritional potions from her, which will give Fei'er, who has never been good at cooking, a special sense of excitement and satisfaction.

Senior brother Zorro, on the other hand, did not agree so simply.

After pondering for a moment, he replied: "I am currently cooperating with my tutor to complete a gold necklace experiment. I don't have much time during the day. I will only have time to teach you at night."

There is no such thing as day and night in the underground world, but the basic concept of time is still based on the surface.

The Black Magic Academy has corresponding clock signals for each time period, including rest and class times for magic apprentices, which also follow this time principle.

Both senior brothers and sisters agreed to Thain's request, and they did not talk about the specific rewards they wanted, which moved Thain.

In fact, it was their mentor Moshe Duo who had already ordered the two of them to give more guidance to Thane.

When the instructor himself has no time to teach Thain, why don't these two disciples who started earlier help him share the pressure.

In a relatively excited mood, Thain, who was still injured, returned to the side room that belonged to him alone.

Today, he is mainly meditating with his mentor. Before he fully recovers, he probably won't be able to assist his mentor in completing any experimental research.

Senior sister Fei'er also left quickly. Only senior brother Zorro watched Thain enter the side room before secretly thinking about leaving.

"Sure enough, what I thought is correct. The reason why the mentor accepted Thain was because he saw some shadow of his second junior brother in him?"

"Aside from the golden hair, the more similarities are the temperament and behavior style..."

Thinking of his junior brother who unfortunately died thirty years ago, Zoro sighed softly.

There are several disciples under Master Moshe, and the one with the most potential is probably the second junior brother.

And like Zorro, the second junior brother came all the way from the Western Islands to the Dark Region with Moses.

As for the third junior sister Fei'er, the fourth junior brother and the fifth junior brother Thain who were later accepted by Teacher Moshe, they were all new disciples after they came to the Dark Territory.

In terms of the amount of energy and emotion invested, the fallen second junior brother was the true heir of the will of Master Moses.

After letting out a sigh, Zoro turned and entered the laboratory.

Recently, the alchemy tasks between him and his mentor have been quite heavy, because the two vice-deans over at Shadow Valley have already started urging them.

…

In front of the smaller experimental table, Thain's eyes were fixed on a piece of green jaw feather claw that had been fixed in front of him.

He was holding a triangular cone-shaped magic cone, which was a gift given to him by his senior brother Zorro a few days ago.

Fine and complex lines, as Thain holds the thin awl and draws carefully

After crossing the surface of the green palate feathers and claws, they begin to become more and more numerous.

When these fine lines gradually covered two-thirds of the entire Green Palate Feather Claw, as Thain relaxed slightly, elemental disorder suddenly appeared.

The originally ordinary green jaw feather claws suddenly emitted a burst of high temperature, which not only melted some of the steel brackets on the experimental table, but also completely destroyed the lines on the surface that Thain had painstakingly carved for several hours.

Feeling that the weak elemental power in Qingwan Feather Claw was completely consumed, a somewhat discouraged Thain slapped the bird claw in front of him on the experimental table and said depressingly: "Failed again!"

This is the third blue-jaw feather claw that Thain has scrapped. Considering the texture of one green-jaw feather claw, it is enough for him to try to carve the magic pattern array three or four times.

In other words, Thain had failed more than ten times before!

Sure enough, there is no such thing as a natural genius in this world.

Even though Thane was praised by his mentor and senior brother for having a certain talent in alchemy.

But he still couldn't make any magic props right away, even if it was to add a simple sharpening technique to the Qingwan Feather Claw.

This is because the Green Palate Feather Claw, as a Warcraft material, has certain elemental properties.

If it is other magic steel or ordinary metal, the alchemists have to personally pour the power of elements into it if there is not enough elemental power innately.

This comes with higher risks and energy instability, and a greater failure rate.

I really don’t know how many times those real alchemists experienced failures before they became a true alchemist.

It's no wonder that senior sister Fei'er, who has an out-of-touch personality, is not interested in alchemy.

Continuous blows can indeed easily make people lose confidence.

The discouragement in his heart did not always affect Thain. He shook his head and waved away the negative emotions. Thain reflected on what mistakes he had made in his previous operations and what points could be improved.

Not only Thain's own problems, but also the experimental platform in front of him and the green-jawed feather claw that had failed twice before were all within Thain's consideration.

After a long time, Thain picked up a green jaw feather claw again. He did not take action immediately, but said to Lina who was quietly reading a magic book next to him: "This experimental bench is indeed a bit small. We have to move it." , it’s time to put it back on the agenda.”
