The 46th chapter "Thorskei's Fire Elemental"
The next morning, when the sun rose cheerfully, please forgive this meaningless analogy. Because Du Wei was enjoying his breakfast under the sun, someone came to see him.
It was that … … swindler magician, Thorskei.
After everyone thought that Du Wei had been kidnapped, Thorskei was under enormous pressure … … he was the only magician by Du Wei's side! But there were no traces of battle on his body!
Everyone was injured, only he was unharmed!
Thorskei was under enormous pressure from his companions.
To tell the truth … … he also felt that the matter of him fainting from fear due to the opponent's title of being an eighth level magician … … was a bit shameful.
But wasn't it? You let a first level magician (and a qualification obtained by swindling) have a duel with an eighth level magician.
That wasn't a duel … … it was murder!
"Oh, my little master, seeing you come back in one piece really makes me happy … …" As soon as he entered the study, Thorskei immediately put on a smiling face.
Bang!
What answered him was Du Wei's kick.
Du Wei kicked the magician down, then looked at him, narrowed his eyes, and laughed in a low voice: "My dear Thorskei … … I'm not that happy to see you."
Thorskei crawled up, awkwardly adjusting his hat: "… … My little master … …"
"Thinking of your appearance that day, I really feel ashamed." Du Wei's face darkened: "My Mister Magic Consultant, you actually fainted in the middle of a battle … … your guts are even smaller than a rabbit's!"
That day, Thorskei was already the last person by Du Wei's side, but this shameful guy didn't even have the slightest bit of use, directly fainting! This almost angered Du Wei to death!
"My God! The opponent is an eighth level magician! Eighth level!! Master Du Wei! " Thorskei defended himself: "I'm only a guy with the qualifications of a first level magician, and my true strength isn't much stronger than a magic apprentice! You know this very well … Could it be that you think I can withstand that magician of the eighth rank? "
"Even so, you can't faint. This is simply too embarrassing! " Du Wei shook his head. "As your employer, I'm really disappointed in you … By the way, where have you been these days?"
"I … … brought a few people with me to the south and moved the things from my laboratory here." Thorskei's answer made Duwei feel a little satisfied.
"You moved your lab over?" Du Wei was a little surprised. "Aren't you afraid that I won't be able to come back? Without me, do you think this family would still accept you? "
Thorskei was helpless, and could only tell the truth … He had received news that the young master of the Rollin Family had been found, so he hurried over.
"Oh, so that's how it is … If I didn't come back, then you were planning to run away, right?" Du Wei looked at the cunning fellow. "With the 'spoils' I threw to you the other day? Am I right? "
Thorskei was speechless.
"Alright, take the things out." Du Wei was referring to the things he had exploited from Vivian.
Almost instinctively, Du Wei felt that he didn't want to give these "things of Vivian's" to others, and only wanted to keep them for himself.
Thorskei was a little anxious. "Master Du Wei … … You aren't a magician, these things can only show their value in the hands of a magician … …"
Don't want to hand them over?
Du Wei snorted. He glanced at the closed study door, then smiled slightly, and raised his hand to lightly summon … …
Whoosh!
On the two sides of the burning candles, several flames immediately sprang up. These flames flew towards Du Wei's palm, and instantly condensed into a fireball!
Thorskei's eyes widened. "Magic? Heavens, you can actually use magic?! "
"Don't tell me you think I'm performing acrobatics? This is a method taught to me by an eighth rank magician! "Du Wei sneered." Give it to me. "
"Can I leave a piece of magic crystal?" Thorskei probed. "Just a small piece … … My experiment needs a good quality magic crystal to store fire element … …"
Du Wei didn't say anything, and only opened his palm.
Thorskei helplessly handed over the bag, and sighed deeply.
"Alright, don't sigh, Mister Magic Advisor." Du Wei took Vivian's things, and felt a little better. "You'll get what you want very quickly. I promise. "
"A mid-grade magic crystal costs at least a few hundred gold coins." Thorskei clearly knew about Du Wei's current situation. Du Wei was grounded and had his pocket money suspended. Many people in the castle knew about this.
"Don't worry, there will be gold coins, and there will be very soon." Du Wei wasn't worried about this.
The plan to rob the pirates was in progress, and there would be a lot of income very soon … … Moreover, don't forget, in the secret passage under the study, there was a secret room, and there were still many treasures left behind by Saimel.
"That's right, Thorskei, come, I'll take you to see your new laboratory! It's in the forest outside the castle! "
When they left the study, the old butler came to see Du Wei. Du Wei pointed to a pile of burnt ashes on the ground, and smiled. "My dear butler … … I'm very sorry, last night when I was reading, I don't know what happened, but the oil painting on the wall fell down, and happened to hit a candlestick … … It burned just like that. I think you'll have the servants clean it up, right? "
The old butler stared blankly at an empty spot in the row of oil paintings on the wall, and then looked at the pile of ashes on the ground.
Heavens … … That was an antique!
The word "prodigal" spun around in the old butler's mind, but in the end, he didn't dare to say it out loud. He lightly bit his lips, and then helplessly agreed.
Du Wei casually brought Thorskei out of the study, and headed towards the forest beside the castle.
In the depths of the forest, the wooden building by the stream had already been built.
The three storey wooden building looked very sturdy, and it was clearly made of the best materials.
"Are you satisfied? In the future, this will be the magic laboratory … … Our magic laboratory! "
Walking into the first floor of the small building, there was a large hall. The basic furniture, such as the large table that Du Wei had specially requested to be used as a workbench, was already there. On the shelf to the side, there were many glassware that Du Wei had ordered … … All kinds of bottles and jars, and even a few crystals.
The second floor was a row of metal cabinets, used to store all kinds of raw materials.
And the third floor was Du Wei's place. A spacious balcony was left behind, specially for Du Wei to observe the stars.
Du Wei had even prepared to personally make an astronomical telescope and place it here.
"Are you satisfied?" Du Wei smiled at Thorskei.
Thorskei's expression was very happy: "Very good! Such a big place, it's enough for me to do many experiments! "
Du Wei smiled as he pulled him to the back of the small building, and pointed at the plants on the ground in front of him.
These were some of the most basic materials for magic potions … … Of course, there were many magic materials that Du Wei couldn't buy, and the shops in the town didn't have them, so he could only occasionally buy them from adventuring groups. Or he could buy them from the Sorcerers Guild.
However, the Sorcerers Guild wasn't open to the public, and people who didn't have the qualifications to be mages couldn't buy anything from the Sorcerers Guild.
"I've already prepared the most basic plants … … As for the rest, we can only buy them from the Sorcerers Guild. This matter requires you to personally buy them, you also know the rules of the Sorcerers Guild. As for money … … There will be money, don't worry, we'll have money very soon. "
Thorskei silently looked at the things in front of him.
He was already very satisfied!
A mage's experiment, in the eyes of an ordinary person, was simply "burning money"!
Those precious materials were likely to be burned or destroyed in a failed experiment for no reason at all.
In the past, Thorskei didn't have that much money to buy these materials back to experiment. Many of his materials had been "secretly accumulated" from his teacher in the past. In addition, he still needed to go out and work for an adventuring group, earn money, or get a few magic cores from magic beasts.
Now that he had this small noble's promise, he didn't need to worry about money in the future, so he could open his heart and do the experiments he wanted to do!
Du Wei still had considerable expectations for Thorskei.
This guy could actually research a method to simulate magic … … He really could be considered a genius! If this guy was allowed to continue researching, who knew what else he could research!
"Oh, right, let me see what you brought back from your laboratory in the south!"
Compared to Du Wei's laboratory, the things Thorskei brought back were much more shabby.
He brought a few bottles and jars … … Half of them were made of clay. Clearly, this financially strapped mage didn't have extra money to buy those beautiful glassware.
These jars stored some of the magic elements Thorskei had refined … … mainly fire elements.
This was also the "yellow powder" Thorskei had refined.
Du Wei was still the most interested in this "fire element".
With Thorskei's approval, he carefully opened a jar, and then he saw this "yellow powder"!
The first time he saw these things, as well as that familiar smell … … Du Wei stared blankly!
He couldn't help but gently stretch out two fingers and pinch a small pinch, then he moved closer to smell it … …
"This is the 'fire element' you made?" Du Wei turned his head and looked seriously at Thorskei.
"… … Yes."
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Du Wei slowly said: "You … … How fast can you refine this kind of thing?"
"This depends on the raw materials. The main material is Firescale Grass powder, but it has to be refined six times, and the refining process has to be very careful. There can't be any fire in the surroundings … … I was almost burned to death in an accident before. "
"What if I give you enough materials?"
Thorskei thought for a bit and calculated: "I think, if there are enough materials, perhaps I can make three bottles a day."
Three bottles?
The bottle Thorskei pointed to was about the size of the beer bottle Du Wei knew from his previous world.
Three bottles a day … … this speed was already not bad.
Du Wei held back his laughter, and suddenly hugged Thorskei: "My Mr. Magic Consultant … … I am very satisfied with your fire element … … I want to give you a raise! Wait until I have money! Ha ha ha … … "
After a pause, Du Wei said in a low voice: "Listen, this fire element formula, we have to keep it a secret! Understand? "
"That's for sure!" Thorskei promptly replied.
This laboratory was temporarily under Thorskei's control. He left behind those bottles and jars he had brought in the laboratory, as well as those crude tools: a few large pots, as well as some refining jars and flammable utensils.
Du Wei walked out alone.
The two servants following behind him looked at this young master and couldn't stop laughing.
Du Wei walked far away, and finally could no longer hold back his emotions, and laughed loudly.
His smile carried joy and surprise, as if an infinite amount of gold coins had suddenly fallen from the heavens, and only fell into his pocket!
"Ha ha ha ha … … What fire element! It's clearly fire! Ha ha, I actually have fire!! "
