Skeleton carving was a profession that used various skeletons as raw materials to make mech parts. It was a little-known profession.
Ye Chong had never thought of making mech engines, since it required altering the skeletons' properties, which was beyond the scope of skeleton carving. To Ye Chong, skeleton carving was a profession that maximized the good properties of the skeletons. However, the problem before him involved altering the properties of the skeletons, and the two were not the same concept. However, with the problem before him, Ye Chong had no choice but to do it.
He asked for a huge pile of skeletons from Wei Xi. While Ye Chong had plenty of skeletons himself, and they were all top grade, Ye Li was not foolish enough to waste his hard-earned skeletons on this. At the same time, Ye Chong also asked for a high-precision analyzer for alchemists, which was much more advanced than Lunatic Guan's, and operated with high intelligence.
Since there were many types of skeletons, and they differed greatly from each other, Ye Chong had to try them all.
Ye Chong first picked out some skeletons with excellent physical properties, and placed them into the analyzer. Through the photon processor, the analysis was carried out automatically.
This step was a huge workload. After all, there were too many types of skeletons, and after the first round of screening, there were still many types of skeletons left. The skeletons that Wei Xi sent to Ye Chong filled up his entire room, including some rare skeletons. Ye Chong could not care less about the fact that rare materials could affect the final score. To him, the fact that he could make a full-skeleton engine was a miracle in itself!
After spending a month, Ye Chong finally completed this step. Not only did he get the possible alchemy recipes for various skeletons, he also got something else. However, it was all thanks to Shang, who suggested that Ye Chong should use this opportunity to collect other data on these skeletons. Ye Chong thought about it, and felt that it made sense. Since the analysis was already done, why not do a comprehensive analysis? The data might come in handy in the future. Of course, the collection was left to Shang, since there were too many empty places in the huge database.
Ye Chong could not help but mutter, "How could Shang make such a useful suggestion?"
Of course, the suggestion was met with a strong backlash from Shang, and a great deal of indignation.
Just like that, Ye Chong obtained not only the possible formulas of various skeletons, but also the comprehensive data and information of these skeletons analyzed by the analyzer.
The power of the Guan family's automated analysis mechanism was once again on full display. Ye Chong had obtained a total of more than 300 sets of formulas. When the data was presented to him by Shang at the end, Ye Chong almost fell off his chair!
Over three hundred sets? This, this is too scary! Initially, Ye Chong had predicted that there would be at least 30 groups, but he did not expect there to be more than 300 groups! This number was a little scary!
Wei Xi was frustrated. She had to find time every day to visit Ye Chong's place, and Ye Chong's place was almost a graveyard. Even though Wei Xi had undergone strict training, she still could not help but feel a little creeped out when she was surrounded by so many different kinds of bones. Alas, her duties did not allow her to leave. Now, she could only hope that the assessment would end soon, so that she could return to the Sanctuary to continue her studies.
This seemingly young Mr. Ye was not someone who was easy to serve. The long list of skeletons that he gave her last time almost made her have the urge to faint immediately. She went to the warehouse, and to her surprise, the warehouse supervisor said that there were many skeletons that could not be gathered. He said that the Sanctuary had urgently transferred a batch of rare skeletons, and now many of the rare skeletons on the list could not be gathered.
Wei Xi was dumbfounded. Of course, she knew what the so-called emergency transfer was all about. They were all sent to that Mr. Ye in exchange for bone parts. Left with no other choice, Wei Xi could only look for Master Fan who was in charge of this Level 4 assessment. Master Fan pondered for a moment, and then ordered 7 standard combat squads to head to the nearest base, and transport the missing skeletons on the list as soon as possible. Wei Xi was once again dumbfounded. Seven standard combat squads were sent, just to send a few skeletons to one person?
That was a little too much! Wei Xi who heard Master Fan's order through the comms was dumbfounded!
But then Ye Chong asked for the analyzer, which surprised her even more. She studied pharmacy, which involved a lot of alchemy knowledge, so she was no stranger to alchemy. Ye Chong asked for the analyzer specially for alchemy. Could he be an alchemist?
Wei Xi was very doubtful, so she paid more attention to Ye Chong. However, in this one month, Ye Chong was only analyzing the skeletons with all his might. What was he doing? Wei Xi who did not know about Ye Chong's assessment was puzzled by Ye Chong's behavior. After reporting to the Elder, she was instructed to keep a close watch on Ye Chong.
Ye Chong and Shang had long noticed Wei Xi's strange behavior. The automatic analysis mechanism was only used when Wei Xi was not around, and it could be destroyed at any time. If this thing fell into the hands of the Sanctuary, it would be a big problem!
More than 300 sets of formulas, and each set required more than 10 types of raw materials and reagents, some even required more than 100 types, and most of the raw materials were unknown to him.
Shang then handed him another list, "Ye, this is the total list of all the required items!"
While it was much less than the previous list, it was still dazzling. Besides, Shang had added many alchemy instruments and various reagent bottles on the list.
When Ye Chong handed the list to Wei Xi, the long list made Wei Xi petrified. After half a minute, she spoke with difficulty, "Are these all necessary?"
Ye Chong nodded. On the other hand, Shang spoke in Ye Chong's heart in sympathy, "Poor girl, Ye, you scared me!"
While it was undoubtedly a painful thing to receive the list, Wei Xi was also sure of one thing - this young Mr. Ye was not only a good skeleton carver, but also a very good alchemist. Wei Xi could not judge whether Ye Chong was good as a skeleton carver, but as an alchemist, Wei Xi was very sure that Ye Chong must be an excellent alchemist.
Perhaps, the word excellent was not enough to describe him. The list revealed too much information. The number of raw materials and reagents involved were uncountable, some of them were very rare, and many of them were only used by advanced operators.
Wei Xi did not pass the list to Master Fan immediately. Instead, she passed it to the Elder and explained her point of view. As he looked at the list and listened to Wei Xi's point of view, the Elder's expression became more and more serious. He switched on the comms on the table, and gave an order in a low voice.
A moment later, a middle-aged man walked in. Wei Xi was shocked, and cried out involuntarily, "Master Hai Te!"
The middle-aged man named Hai Te was Wei Xi's teacher in alchemy. He was handsome, always humble and polite, and was always popular among the female students in the Sanctuary.
The middle-aged man turned and smiled at Wei Xi, then turned to the Elder and bowed, "Elder, do you have any instructions for me?"
"Hai Te, take a look at this list." The Elder's hoarse voice echoed in the room, as he tapped on the photon processor on the table.
The holographic projection of Ye Chong's list was enlarged, and floated in front of Wei Xi.
Hai Te looked at the few instruments in front of him, and raised his eyebrows, looking interested. However, his relaxed expression soon disappeared, and was replaced by a serious expression.
"Do you see anything? This is the list of items requested by an applicant for the Level 4 Trial this year. We do not have any information on him in alchemy, but I think you should be able to see something from this list. Most importantly, can you estimate his level in alchemy? This is very important to us, a skeleton carver who is proficient in alchemy, how can we let go of such a talent? "The Elder said the last sentence leisurely.
Hai Te pondered for a moment, and then spoke, "From this list, this applicant should have a very high level of alchemy. For example, this Biming Powder, it is extremely rare, and even many alchemists in the Sanctuary do not know about this material. Biming Powder needs to be used in conjunction with Felters' solution, and this is something even fewer people know. I only found out about it by chance from a master alchemist's notes. As expected, I found Felters' solution at the back. Also, from the looks of it, there are quite a lot of plant materials, ores, and other non-extraction reagents. This is very different from the current alchemy. Hmm, I suspect that he might be an alchemist from some ancient school. "
The Elder's eyes shone, and asked with interest, "Oh, an alchemist from an ancient school? Sounds interesting, is there anything special about them? "
Wei Xi perked up her ears, as it was rare for her to hear such secrets.
Hai Te hesitated for a moment, and said, "Alchemists from the ancient school have a completely different philosophy from the current alchemy. They worship nature, and are rather low profile, not known by the public. Most of them are inherited by families. Due to their long history, they have a much deeper understanding of alchemy than the current alchemists. They have their own specialties, and seem to have a certain tacit understanding with each other. Hmm, I don't know much about them, and this is what I know from the master alchemist's notes. "
"If he is an alchemist from an ancient school, and can enter our Sanctuary, how valuable do you think he is?" The Elder asked with interest.
"Ah! The value is unparalleled! It was absolutely incomparable! We know nothing about these alchemists from the ancient school, and they have a completely different theoretical system from the current alchemy. Furthermore, there were too many inconceivable things in their family-style inheritance. If we can know all of this, I believe that the Sanctuary's alchemy standard will enter a new era of rapid development. We will be able to leave Black Cove and MPA far behind. The benefits it brings to us are also unparalleled! Elder, we can't let this man go! "Hai Te's face was flushed with excitement.
Wei Xi was shocked to see Mr. Haite, who had always been gentle, getting so excited because of one person.
"Hmm, you're right! Since we know that he might be an alchemist from an ancient school, there's no reason for us to let him go. That bunch of good-for-nothings in the Sanctuary, they can't even make the simplest bone parts. Hmm, if we can keep him here, this problem can be solved. Bone parts are good stuff! "The Elder's murky eyes were getting brighter and brighter.
Wei Xi left the room, but her heart could not calm down. She did not expect this young Mr. Ye to be so valued by the Elder and Master Hai Te. But thinking about the fact that such a genius's fate had been decided in that dark room, and the person who decided it was not him, Wei Xi could not help but feel sad.
Sigh, this was not something an insignificant person like her could decide. Moreover, the Elder had made this decision for the sake of the Sanctuary. Perhaps it would be more beneficial for him if he stayed in the Sanctuary. She comforted herself and cheered herself up. However, the sadness in her heart could not be erased.
The Elder's order was to cooperate with Mr. Ye, and report his every move to the Elder.
When Wei Xi handed the list to Master Fan, Master Fan's eyes almost popped out, and his expression was so funny that Wei Xi wanted to laugh.
Ye Chong received all the reagents and instruments in no time.
More than 300 formulas, if not for the high intelligence of the instruments, Ye Chong would have to vomit blood to prepare all the formulas. Even so, it still took him three days to complete the 300 sets of recipes. What troubled Ye Chong was that Wei Xi, who used to come every day, was now staying by his side for the whole day.
The only thing that Ye Chong was glad about was that Shang did not show his creepy passion to Wei Xi anymore. Ye Chong's ears were also kept quiet.
Seeing Wei Xi watching his every move, the vigilant Ye Chong laughed coldly. The formulas were so complicated that even Ye Chong, with his excellent memory, would not be able to memorize them in a short time. Besides, there was still a lot of knowledge involved in the purification of bones. Without guidance, others would not be able to see anything.
Hence, the possibility of learning secretly was infinitely close to zero.
As expected, it did not take long for Wei Xi to give up on this meaningless action. These formulas were like the Bible to her. She tried her best to memorize the simplest formula and brought it back to Master Hai Te. Master Hai Te was also confused, and could not understand the meaning of it.
She could not help but admire Mr. Ye, who was about the same age as her.
But this kind of genius, his fate ….
