Chapter 269 Alchemy Prototype, Pay-to-Win Mage! (Approved Version)
At this moment, Su Xinyan looked at Fang Zhou who was not moving and asked with some doubt, "Fang Zhou, what are you standing there for?"
Go ahead and give it a try!
A sly glint flashed in her bright, expressive eyes, as if she had caught a glimpse of an interesting idea in an instant.
With a slight smile, she continued, "You don't need to feel any pressure in front of me."
It is important to know that alchemy is an extremely difficult skill to master.
Even for me, after achieving a qualitative leap in my mental attributes and advancing to the Black Iron level, it still took me three whole days.
Only then did they successfully refine the most basic spherical alchemy blank independently for the first time.
So even if you try several times and fail, or even if you struggle to get the hang of it in a short time, I will never laugh at you.
Upon hearing this, Fang Zhou merely gave Su Xinyan a faint, wary look.
This charming and beautiful instructor made no attempt to hide her amusement at the spectacle.
Her eyes and the tips of her hair seemed to carry an expectation, as if she couldn't wait to see Fang Zhou make a fool of himself.
Despite this, Fang Zhou didn't care at all.
A true strong person should be this confident!
Fangzhou's gaze fell on his attribute panel, where his status as an apprentice alchemist was clearly marked.
He then stepped forward and picked up a small, sand-like piece of alchemical material from the lab table.
This is a very basic ore material, and it is also the easiest of all alchemical materials to be refined into alchemical prototypes.
Seeing Fang Zhou's actions, Instructor Su Xinyan raised her eyebrows slightly, secretly pondering what to do.
It seems that Ark is quite self-aware, knowing that it should start practicing with the simplest materials.
Just as she was thinking this, Fang Zhou lowered his head to feel the alchemical materials in his hand and gently shook his head.
too easy.
Let's choose another one.
The ark's self-light wandered among the neatly arranged materials on the experimental table.
More than a dozen different materials, some gleaming with a metallic luster, others emitting a faint fluorescent glow.
Fangzhou's gaze finally settled on an inconspicuous corner, where an energy crystal lay quietly.
It is an extremely difficult mineral raw material to process.
Only experienced alchemists can refine it into a six-pointed star-shaped alchemical blank with the most robust structure and the strongest energy conductivity.
For a beginner, such an attempt is nothing short of a gamble.
Instructor Su Xinyan stood to the side, her gaze fixed intently on Fang Zhou.
Although she didn't speak, she was secretly thinking about it.
In recent times, Ark has made rapid progress, and everything seems to be going too smoothly, to the point that there are some signs of blind confidence.
Su Xinyan decided that she would give him a good scolding when he failed later.
Give him a lesson and make him understand that alchemy is not child's play.
Under Su Xinyan's watchful gaze, Fang Zhou steadily picked up the energy crystal.
The spiritual energy then condensed into a delicate film, gently enveloping the crystal.
After Ark activated the [Alchemy] skill, his mental energy began to flow in a predetermined manner, gradually heating and changing the internal structure of the crystal.
As he moved, the crystal slowly rotated.
Each facet was meticulously sculpted until a perfect six-pointed star shape gradually emerged.
The imperfections on the crystal surface are gradually worn away, and its crystal-clear texture is slowly revealed.
Watching Fang Zhou's smooth and fluid alchemy movements, Instructor Su Xinyan's eyes widened and her lips parted slightly.
She had originally planned to give them a good dressing down after the Ark's failure.
But now it seems that such an opportunity is probably gone.
At this point, the Ark had reached the final step in refining the alchemical prototype.
So Su Xinyan suppressed her surprise and did not interfere with Fang Zhou's actions.
With the completion of the final step, Fangzhou slowly withdrew its mental energy.
The energy crystal in his hand, which was originally irregular and murky, has now transformed into a white, transparent, and regularly shaped six-pointed star alchemical prototype.
At this moment, Su Xinyan finally couldn't contain her excitement.
She strode forward and eagerly took the six-pointed star-shaped alchemical blank from Fang Zhou's hand. She then examined it carefully, turning it over and over several times.
Fangzhou stood to the side with a smile.
It was as if he had already discerned that Instructor Su Xinyan's wishful thinking had been completely overturned by his extraordinary performance.
After a long while, Su Xinyan finally managed to accept the astonishing result before her.
She gripped the six-pointed star-shaped alchemical blank tightly with one hand, while her other hand unconsciously pinched her slender waist.
His eyes were filled with disbelief.
She looked at Fang Zhou and said through gritted teeth, "You actually learned alchemy, such a profound and unfathomable skill, after only watching my demonstration once?"
Tell me honestly, have you secretly learned alchemy from someone else before?
Faced with such questions, Fangzhou did not rush to explain.
He stepped forward and gently took the six-pointed star-shaped alchemical blank back from Su Xinyan's hand.
Immediately afterwards, in front of Su Xinyan, he once again used his alchemy skills to restore the alchemy embryo back into the irregular energy crystal it had been before.
Under his alchemy, the originally exceptionally strong and durable mineral material seemed to have turned into clay, allowing him to shape it as he pleased.
Looking at Su Xinyan's somewhat doubtful face, Fang Zhou smiled slightly, put the raw ore back on the lab table, and said gently, "Instructor Xinyan, this is the truth. I have successfully taken on the secondary profession of alchemist."
You don't need to be too surprised; I just have a tiny bit of talent.
As for your claim that I learned alchemy from others, that's utter nonsense.
You should know exactly where I've been these days.
Where would I find the time to learn alchemy from other instructors?
Seeing Instructor Su Xinyan's sullen expression, Fang Zhou stepped forward and put his arm around her waist.
He gently rubbed her face and whispered in Su Xinyan's ear, "Oh my, look at her! Instructor Xinyan is as beautiful as a flower, and her temperament is unparalleled!"
He looks even better when he's angry, haha!
"On another note, the fact that I've mastered alchemy so quickly proves that Instructor Xinyan is a great teacher, doesn't it?"
Su Xinyan stared at Fang Zhou with wide eyes for a few seconds, then quickly looked at the raw mineral materials on the experimental table. After examining them repeatedly, she sighed resignedly.
Fang Zhou stood firmly to the side, watching Su Xinyan lean against the lab table with a hint of passion in his teasing eyes. "Come on, Instructor Xinyan."
You taught me alchemy, so I'm going to reward you handsomely.
I don't want to be rough with you, so please stop struggling.
Su Xinyan's delicate body trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but look at Fang Zhou's strong physique.
"You're back?!"
She wanted to refuse loudly, but for some reason, she felt a little reluctant to part with Fangzhou's superb technology.
Fang Zhou grabbed Su Xinyan's arm, trying to lift her body up.
"Don't touch me!"
Fang Zhou released his grip and then turned Su Xinyan's body over so that she was facing the wall.
"Uh, what do you want to do?"
Su Xinyan leaned forward, pressing her upper body against the wall.
Her slender waist was folded into a beautiful arc.
She turned her head with difficulty to look back, her small, fair hands desperately reaching backward, trying to stop Fang Zhou's massage.
"I'll give you a massage."
At this moment, Su Xinyan was completely under Fang Zhou's gaze.
Beneath her flawless jade-like back, her fair, peach-like petals stood alluringly erect.
Fang Zhou bent down to take a look, and saw a large expanse of fair, jade-like skin with a faint fragrance.
"Shall we learn alchemy properly today?"
Su Xinyan said softly.
But Fangzhou completely ignored her.
Su Xinyan no longer cared about her posture; the shame she felt made her want to disappear.
She didn't know how long Fang Zhou would massage her this time.
Fang Zhou had no idea what Su Xinyan was thinking.
He spent a lot of effort and only managed to massage four times.
Seeing that she was already struggling, Fangzhou didn't push her any further.
He casually picked up an irregular mineral crystal from the lab table in front of him and played with it slowly before sitting down on the sofa.
After a long while, Su Xinyan struggled to get up, her face flushed, and walked towards the bathroom with her two trembling legs.
While Su Xinyan was away from her room to shower and change, Fang Zhou sat alone on the sofa in the living room.
He struck a relaxed pose, holding his personal terminal, and started playing the Demon Extermination Chess game whenever he had a spare moment.
Not long after, Su Xinyan changed into a form-fitting long dress.
Her damp hair fell gently over her shoulders, exuding a faint fragrance.
She slowly emerged from the bathroom, exuding a shy yet alluring aura.
The sight of a beautiful woman emerging from her bath made Fangzhou's mouth water.
But this time, no matter how he tried to seduce her, Su Xinyan refused to try his massage again.
To be honest, she was genuinely worried about Fang Zhou, this energetic and promising young apprentice.
As a true gentleman, Fangzhou would naturally not force others to do things they were unwilling to do.
So he stood up, walked over to Su Xinyan, picked up a comb, and carefully and gently combed her wet hair.
Once everything was in order and they were both dressed neatly, they returned to the alchemy lab, ready to continue their learning journey.
Standing in front of the lab bench, Su Xinyan coughed softly, noticing that her voice was a little hoarse.
She recalled how she had shouted too loudly because of her emotions, and a blush crept onto her cheeks, a hint of shyness and helplessness flashing in her eyes.
Turning around, Su Xinyan glared at Fang Zhou and said, "Fang Zhou, take out that sealed bone bell you had before."
Now that you have mastered the basic methods of refining and reducing alchemical prototypes, you have entered the field of alchemy and successfully become an alchemist.
As an apprentice alchemist, under my guidance, you should be more than capable of crafting or enhancing gray, low-quality artifacts.
Give it a try!
Upon hearing this, Fang Zhou nodded slightly and took out the sealing bone bell containing the pearl bird Gu Gu from his spatial storage capsule.
Instructor Su Xinyan had told him that this sealed bone bell was not a perfect alchemical artifact.
It contains a subtle "back door," namely an alchemical array that is not yet fully sealed.
To better utilize its power, this gap needs to be found and repaired.
Under Su Xinyan's careful guidance, Fang Zhou cautiously observed the bone bell in his hand.
After some exploration, Ark finally discovered a barely noticeable mark on one side of the bone bell.
There was a section of alchemical rune that appeared somewhat dimmer than the surrounding runes; this was precisely the "back door" that Instructor Su Xinyan had mentioned.
Fangzhou took a deep breath and selected several special materials from the material box next to him.
These materials were prepared specifically for this teaching session by Instructor Su Xinyan.
He picked up a piece of ore that emitted a faint glow; it was an important component used to strengthen the alchemical array inside the sealed bone bell.
Next, Ark carefully guided the activated ore fragment to the gap in the sealed bone bell.
As the ore fragments were incorporated, the gap gradually narrowed, and the alchemical runes became brighter.
After the last piece of material was perfectly fused into the bone bell, the alchemical runes on the surface of the sealed bone bell began to shimmer with dazzling light.
Fangzhou held the lively and adorable pearl bird Gugu in one hand, while looking at the sealed bone bell in his other hand.
At this point, the information about the Sealed Bone Bell in the Oddities section of the attribute panel has been updated in real time.
Just as Instructor Su Xinyan said, with the enhancement Fang Zhou just now, the power of this sealed bone bell has been greatly increased.
Now, it can successfully seal creatures whose strength does not exceed that of an apprentice-level being.
For Fangzhou, this means he can confidently and boldly raise the pearl bird Gugu.
He had just traded several bottles of insect food pills from Gu Yueyuan, which would help flying spirit birds grow and evolve.
Fangzhou opened a small bottle, which was filled with colorful insect food pellets.
He took one out and handed it to the pearl bird.
Gugu happily pecked at the insect food balls, seemingly thoroughly enjoying the delicious treat.
He stroked the tuft of hair on the cuckoo bird's head. According to Fang Zhou's estimation, based on the current rate of progress, it wouldn't be long before this pearl bird could break through to the upper apprentice level, matching his strength.
