Witch Alchemist

Unconsciously, the New Year has passed.

66 King Street, in the alchemy room.

"Crackle..."

A faint sound suddenly came from the forging metal container.

"Meow!"

The black cat Domi reminded him, and Roy, who was sitting next to him, turned his head suddenly.

"Oh no, I was so engrossed in reading that I almost forgot the temperature!"

He quickly stood up, blocked the effect of the witch array with his spiritual power, took down the relic residue that had been smelted into shape, and added the water of Great Albert to cool and dissolve it.

It turned out that although he did not really miss the opportunity, this attempt still ended in failure.

Roy looked at the red pigment that did not show the spiritual resonance reaction as he imagined after the reaction, and he couldn't help showing a little disappointment.

However, at this moment, a strange glimmer emerged, and under the action of a mysterious force, some relic materials that did not fully participate in the reaction were precipitated from the failed pigment!

[Make the best use of things] took effect!

[When refining fails, at least 35% of the consumed materials can be recovered, and the effect is limited to zero-level items]

This is the literal description of the alchemy talent. In fact, the effect must also follow the laws of objective matter, and it can only work on the parts that have not been fully reflected or have not changed in nature.

"Sure enough, the reaction intensity is still not enough...

If the blackening potion I have can dissolve even this kind of thing, perhaps the situation will be greatly improved..."

Roy judged based on the effective talent ability.

This is a little trick he has come up with recently.

If [Accidental surprise] is triggered, it means that the reaction is sufficient and the properties of the material have been completely changed.

And if [Making the best use of things], it proves that this is not the case.

However, just when Roy just thought of this, suddenly, [Luck Favors] was triggered.

This is a rare case of consecutive triggering.

Part of the reaction failed, and part of it succeeded, just like a pot of half-cooked rice.

Some of it is also edible.

Some black, mud-like things precipitated again between the residues.

"Hmm?"

Roy showed some joy on his face, and quickly collected these black things.

The [Eye of Hermes] illuminated it, and soon found out its essence.

"Soul pigment·black...

Sure enough! It's black again!"

In the past six months, Roy has tried and failed again and again, and he feels a little numb.

If it weren't for the fact that this kind of thing was called helping Mutrik, but it was actually for himself, he almost wanted to give up.

However, it is impossible to say that it is a failure, but it is impossible to really get nothing.

Just like the four ultimates pursued by alchemists, in fact, no one has been able to fully achieve them so far...

This standard of "ultimate" and "perfection" is always changing flexibly.

Roy's goal is to refine colorful soul pigments and get the red, blue, green, yellow...

These things that represent different emotions have not been achieved.

On the contrary, black is repeatedly obtained through [luck favor] and [surprise].

Perhaps all failures can actually be classified as this.

"When using this soul pigment, you must be extra careful, because it contains the soul energy condensed from all negative spirits, which may cause a shock to the spirit of the user and the viewer...

Crazy, insane, evil...

It's all in it!

However, this thing can actually be used as a weapon!

Let me think about it, if there is a chance in the future, use it as a paint like poison!"

Sometimes, pigments are also poisonous!

Roy casually found some animal fats and blended this black pigment. In a short while, he made a viscous substance similar to asphalt, and then sealed it in bottles.

"Specially made mental toxin (level 1)...

Take it back to the wizard tower and sell it later!

Each bottle ranges from 5,000 to 10,000 magic stones!

This is the reasonable price of common consumables in the formal wizard stage.

If you don't say it yourself, who would know that this is the product of failure?"

"Meow! Master, you are really too smart meow!"

No mistakes in one song, one post, one content, one book, one forum, one 6, one 9!

Hearing Roy's words, the black cat Domi couldn't help but stand up, clapping her chubby hands and making a baby girl's voice.

In recent times, it has gradually stimulated the high IQ function of the magic pet and started to learn to speak.

For the master who gave it a second life and merged part of its soul with itself, it is 100% unconditional worship and closeness.

However, since it has not been exposed to human society very much, Domi is not very proficient in the skill of flattery.

Roy smiled faintly, turned his head and touched its head.

Immediately, in Domi's shock, he took out a small scarf, tied it around it, and handed the small broom to Domi.

"Be good, help me clean the alchemy room...

I'm going to read a book first!"

"Meow! Meow!"

The black cat Domi raised her head and cried.

"I don't want to work!"

However, the master's mission cannot be disobeyed.

Domi pretended for a while, and seeing that the master was still hard-hearted, he had to meow.

"Revitalization"!

The pet itself generally does not have independent spellcasting ability, but as a special relationship with the owner, like an external organ, it still has many special convenient abilities.

For example, it is equivalent to a part of the owner's body, transmitting touch spells (spells that require contact to be successfully cast, alchemy, touch of death, etc.), shared spells (invisibility, flight, etc., which are aimed at the self, can be connected through an invisible transmission chain), etc.

Roy engraved the innate witchcraft in his soul, and replaced part of the soul of the black cat Domi with his own soul.

In fact, there is a permanent and fixed "shared spell" effect, sharing this "activation" with it.

The black cat Domi already has about 0.45 degrees of mental power. With the help of Roy's power to cast the "first-level activation", it can easily leverage 4 times the power of the spell.

In an instant, about 1.8 degrees of witchcraft energy emerged.

Brooms, rags, buckets, brushes and other objects all floated up, inheriting the intelligent body that Roy had built in his mind and started to operate automatically.

Domi cried strangely, jumped into Roy's arms, and arched his belly to act coquettishly.

Roy smiled and had to pinch its ears and let it go.

Not long after, the black cat Domi couldn't stay idle and ran out of the garden to chase butterflies.

Roy ignored it and continued to look at the book called "Fire Bronze Sculpture" in his hand.

This was a collection of books given by the teacher during his time in Knightland. It talked about a kind of witchcraft that used metal to cast bronze statues to create a mighty and majestic guard corps.

"Why do we have to use stone to make statues instead of using metals such as gold, silver, copper and iron?"

This question is also recorded in the book.
