The capital of the Tuten Dynasty was located near the northern sea. It was called Tut City. It wasn't far from the Orc Kingdom by sea, so it was also a prosperous trading city.
The king of the Tuten Dynasty was called Tuten, which was originally the name of the city lord of Tut City. It originally meant that he was the son of the Titan God. However, as each city became independent, the Tut City State was destroyed by an internal rebellion more than three hundred years ago.
The name Tuten was now just a symbolic title. It no longer had its original meaning. It was just a name for the ruler. Even after the Tuten Dynasty had become a city-state alliance country more than a hundred years ago, the original meaning of the name Tuten had been lost. Although the outside world had always called Tuten the Tuten Dynasty, it would be more accurate to call it the Tuten City-State Alliance.
Outside Tut City, many ships from the Orc Kingdom were docked there. The dock was neatly built, and it was all paved with marble. There were a few steps leading up to it, and it looked very grand. It wasn't just a dock, it was also a market.
After a large number of merchant ships unloaded their goods, they could immediately start trading here. Many citizens and nobles of Tut City also came here to buy some new things from afar.
However, things were different in the past. In recent years, the Tuten Dynasty had started to sell all kinds of strange things to the outside world. There were easy-to-use glazed gas lamps, beautiful colorful glass handicrafts, binoculars, exquisite compasses, pocket watches that could tell the time at any time, and so on.
Even guns and alchemy explosives, which were banned from being sold, could be bought. Every one of these items caused a stir in the Tuten Dynasty and the Alen Continent. Everyone liked them, and even though their prices had skyrocketed, they were still in short supply.
These exquisite magical items came from the Akkad Alchemy Workshop in Tut City. According to legend, this new workshop was founded by an alchemist named Akkad, who came from the western world.
Everything that had the Akkad Alchemy Workshop's logo on it could be sold for a high price in the market. In the eyes of the Tuten Dynasty, Tut City, and the merchants from all over the world, the entire alchemy workshop was like a river of gold coins.
The Akkad Alchemy Workshop was built in the north of Tut City, near the Ryan River. There was a six-story round tower next to it, which was the Akkad Alchemy College. The bottom three floors were for the alchemy workshop, while the upper floors were for the Akkad Alchemy College.
This classroom was originally used by Akkad to live and train alchemy apprentices. As more and more students signed up, apprentices kept pouring in. Gradually, it became the birthplace of alchemy. A large number of alchemy warlocks entered here to learn the highest level of alchemy knowledge and become alchemy warlocks.
No matter who came close, they would notice the round tower at a glance, because it was tilted. The whole round tower stood on the Ryan River, tilted as if it was going to fall, but it still stood there. At first, most people didn't understand why the owner of the alchemy workshop, Akkad, built such a tilted tower.
On the day that the tilted tower was built, Akkad threw two lead balls of different weights from the tilted tower. Both balls landed at the same time, shocking everyone in Tut City. Akkad stood in front of the tilted tower and told everyone, "This is alchemy warlock.
"This is what an alchemist is. Discovering the mysteries of the world and using them, this is knowledge."
Alchemy warlocks will create all kinds of alchemy items that will bring convenience to people. Knowledge will change the world, change everyone, and bring happiness to everyone. "
Even now, this scene was still being talked about by the people in the city. Akkad's name had spread throughout the entire Tuten Dynasty. Even the king and the castellans of the various cities would often visit the alchemist Akkad. Akkad had only been in the Tuten Dynasty for a few years, but he had already become an important figure in Tut City.
At this moment, Akkad was teaching the young acolytes on top of the Tilting Tower. Hundreds of people sat upright in the classroom, and in front of each of their desks were textbooks and various experimental tools. Among these hundreds of acolytes, there were less than ten who could actually become a wizard and awaken their spiritual force through meditation.
Most of them only attended classes and learned some alchemy knowledge, such as mathematics, chemistry, and drawing blueprints. They also learned how to make glass, make fertilizer, smelt iron, and make simple clocks.
After graduation, they could become a craftsman, a scholar, a pharmacist, an artist, or a well-known weaponsmithing expert. Even the most ordinary apprentice could bring great changes to the world.
"I hope that becoming an alchemy warlock will not only bring you glory and money," Akkad said. "I want you to know how to benefit the world, how to change the world, and how to use the knowledge I teach you to bring light to the human race."
"I believe that you will change the whole world. You will be the future and hope of the whole world."
Compared to a few years ago, Akkad had aged even more. His hair had turned white. A few years ago, after he failed to reach rank 4, it seemed like he had finally seen through something, or perhaps he had seen through the world.
Akkad came to Tut City and built an alchemy workshop and an alchemy college. He began to teach his alchemy skills. He no longer restricted the talent of a wizard. Even if it was a normal person, as long as they had the will to improve, Akkad was willing to teach them.
"Professor, someone wants to see you. He says he knows you!"
Akkad had just finished his class and was about to walk out of the door when his student, Marina, stopped him. Compared to a few years ago, Marina had become even more beautiful. Even the freckles on her face had disappeared. On the other hand, Akkad was getting older and older.
"What's his name?"
There were many people who wanted to see Akkad every day. If Marina wanted to see him personally, there must be something different.
"Yeah, I think he's a wizard. His name is Anthony."
Akkad was stunned. He looked at Marina and asked, "What did he say his name was?"
Marina didn't understand what was so special about this name. But, seeing how excited Akkad was, she stuttered, "An … Anthony!"
Akkad saw Lu Zhiyu in the hall downstairs. After a few decades, Akkad was finally able to see his professor again. He couldn't help but burst into tears. He excitedly rushed forward and hugged Lu Zhiyu.
"Professor Anthony, you actually came to see me!"
Marina, who was following behind Akkad, opened her mouth wide. She didn't know what to do when she heard Akkad's words. She looked at the young Lu Zhiyu, who was about the same age as her, and asked in shock, "Teacher?"
Lu Zhiyu patted Akkad on the shoulder, feeling a little emotional. A hundred years ago, when Akkad came to the wizard tower to report, he was still a skinny and pale teenager. He was introverted and wasn't good at socializing with people. Now, he was old.
Lu Zhiyu patted Akkad on the back, then looked at the round tower. He smiled and said, "I told you the story of the tilting tower, and the free fall experiment. I didn't expect you to still remember it. You actually built this tilting tower."
Akkad nodded. "I will never forget every lesson you taught me, and I will never forget the vivid experiment you gave me. Even after so many years, the details of that year and every word you said are still in my mind."
Lu Zhiyu looked at Akkad and his white hair and asked, "Did you fail?"
Akkad nodded. "Well, I failed. There are serious mental sequelae, but I'm satisfied to be alive. I've lived for more than a hundred years. Frank, Uruk, Levis, and Henry are all dead, but I'm still alive. What's there to be dissatisfied about?"
Seeing Lu Zhiyu's eyes become a little complicated, Akkad suddenly laughed. "I am still alive, and I can live for another few decades."
Lu Zhiyu and Akkad walked up together. Akkad talked about his experiences over the years, as well as some of his plans. "I always want to leave something behind. Just like Frank left his blood witchcraft, I will also leave my alchemy."
Lu Zhiyu looked at the large number of apprentices in the round tower, as well as the graduates who were making alchemy items on the lower floors. Most of them were ordinary people.
It seems that you have done a good job. "
Akkad said, "I think that, compared to wizards, perhaps these ordinary alchemy warlocks can bring greater change to the world."
"Wizards with great power always pursue longevity and power. They use knowledge to pursue immortality. No one has thought about using knowledge to bring a future and light to ordinary people. Even I was lost in it. Perhaps the approach of death made me gradually wake up and return to our original ideas and wishes."
He then added, "We, the first generation of wizards, including me and Frank, and even Levis and Henry, always thought that wizards were the future of the world. But, as we gradually grew old and died, we found that the world did not develop as we had imagined."
"We were wrong. Wizards did not bring light to the world, only harm and disaster. Perhaps, only these young alchemy warlocks can bring happiness to mankind. By the way, I have also accepted a few students, but I did not teach them those lethal witchcraft. Instead, I taught them alchemy, mechanical alchemy, or pharmaceutical alchemy."
Lu Zhiyu listened to Akkad's words and looked into his wise and bright eyes. He suddenly felt a little shocked. Just as Akkad had said, he was not the only one who was lost in the pursuit of power. Lu Zhiyu was also the same.
"Since when did my mentality start to change? I no longer see these ordinary people as my own kind? Since when did I become high and mighty and look down on all living beings? Since when did I feel that all living beings are like ants?"
Lu Zhiyu looked at some of the energetic alchemy warlocks and nodded. "Knowledge should not have a threshold. The current wizards are too closed, and they have gradually isolated themselves from the world."
He then added, "Frank brought the Kelermo Medical Book to mankind, which has been remembered by countless people. I think your alchemy will surpass Frank's, and the name Akkad will be recorded in history forever."
