The Alchemy in Atlas Courtyard was fundamentally different from the modern Alchemy.
Its origin was the continuation of the goddess Isis, the ancestor of magic in ancient Egypt.
Generally, Alchemy was a method to transform matter, and the study of the free transformation between matter was an alchemist. The alchemists of the clock tower, by combining with Western magic, were able to create androids that were no different from human beings, and they could even equip the androids with excellent magic circuits to adjust their performance and even lifespan. Chaldea also used this technology, and the birth of sub-servants like Matthew was also related to this knowledge.
On the other hand, Atlas Courtyard's Alchemy was different. It was closer to the original meaning. It didn't regard "material transformation" as the goal, but "the transformation of events" as the highest action. Alchemists often mentioned the method of transforming ordinary metals into gold, but for Atlas Courtyard's alchemists, it was just "material transformation". It was a childish technique that was far from ideal.
Therefore, Atlas Courtyard's Alchemy was highly developed based on ancient Egyptian metallurgy, and it was almost completely unaffected by Western magic.
The philosophy of Atlas Courtyard was to treat one's own body as a container for correct, powerful, and rapid use of wisdom.
"Human beings have a rare computing device with five senses, evolved to be able to collect and analyze information, and directly deal with the countless problems derived from it as a labor force. That is us human beings."
That was the common creed of Atlas Courtyard's alchemists.
In other words, they believed that the human body was not controlled by the brain, but in order for the brain to better perform its functions, the human body had to have a physical body. If it was just a monster with pure calculation ability, then there was no need to become an alchemist. It would be enough to become a technical staff. In the eyes of a true alchemist, human beings should be a physical body, spirit, and soul, an individual that showed excellent performance in calculation, practice, and growth.
Thanks to that, the foundation of Atlas Courtyard's alchemists was High Speed Thinking and Split Thinking.
High Speed Thinking: As the name suggests, it is the ability to accelerate thinking and allow thinking to perform super-high-speed calculations.
[Split Thinking]: The ability to freely juxtapose thoughts and perform instantaneous calculations.
The alchemists in Atlas Courtyard possessed these two abilities, especially the ability called Split Thinking. The alchemists in Atlas Courtyard must at least be able to split their thinking into three parts. If they could split their thinking into five parts, they would be considered a genius. In the past, the best dean could even split his thinking into eight parts and perform eight thoughts at the same time.
After that, Atlas Courtyard would also learn the secret alchemy techniques called Transformation and Acceleration. These were abilities that only Atlas Courtyard could inherit. It was impossible to learn them outside. Even in the clock tower, there was no magic book in this field. There were only records and records about it.
It was precisely because of this that the Alchemists of Atlas College were able to create so many powerful weapons and possess so many outstanding techniques. They had even developed seven types of weapons that could destroy the world.
It was impossible for Rozen not to be tempted by such an inheritance.
"If I can get Atlas Alchemy, combined with Virtual Aether that can strengthen the brain, I may be able to release the complete realm of Eye of the Mind in advance."
That was the benefit that Rozen could think of.
Of course, in addition to that, this inheritance was also very useful for Rozen. At least he could better use various techniques and even develop stronger spells, magic equipment, magic costumes, and magic equipment. With such flexible thinking in battle, not only could he control the overall situation, but he could also perfectly control more tamed monsters to play stronger tactics and formations.
In short, there were many benefits to getting this inheritance.
Coupled with Rozen's pursuit of mystery, he certainly wouldn't miss such an opportunity.
Looking at Rozen's eyes, Matthew understood what he was thinking and immediately relaxed her face.
After all, it was impossible for Matthew not to understand Rozen. She knew Rozen's pursuit of miracles and mystery, so naturally, she wouldn't say anything more.
Nitochris was also a magician. After seeing Rozen's eyes and expression, she immediately understood his thoughts.
But …
"This ruin is already the Pharaoh's property. Without the Pharaoh's permission, how can I let others touch the inheritance here?"
Nitochris couldn't help but hesitate.
Seeing that, Rozen suddenly smiled.
"Didn't you say before that King Osmandis has regarded me as an important guest and asked you to treat me with caution?" Rozen said, "In that case, visiting the important facilities in the king's territory, such a small request, I believe the Sun King won't be stingy enough to not allow such a thing, right?"
Rozen's tone was a little provocative.
He could see that although Nitochris seemed great, she was actually very easy to fool … No, it should be said that she was very easy to talk to. Basically, she had a pure and intelligent personality, but her personality was quite impatient and arbitrary.
Most importantly, she regarded the Pharaoh as a supreme existence and thought that she was not mature enough. Therefore, she had blind admiration for Egypt's most famous and powerful Pharaoh, Osmandis.
Under such circumstances, if Rozen said that, there would only be one reaction from Nitochris.
"Of course the Pharaoh can't be a stingy king!"
Sure enough, Nitocles' expression changed, and she declared loudly while trying to appear tough.
"The Sun King is the greatest king in the world. You are not allowed to slander the Pharaoh. You are being disrespectful!"
Saying that, Nitochris also spoke without hesitation.
"In that case, in order to show you the magnanimity and mercy of the Pharaoh, I will specially allow you to visit this Atlas Courtyard!"
"This is not an unauthorized action without the permission of the Pharaoh, but a choice that must be taken to maintain the greatness of the Pharaoh!"
"… Should … Almost … Maybe … That's right …!"
As she said that, Nitochris's tone became a little uncertain and uneasy.
This made Rozen feel a little guilty.
However, this place was not Osmandis's property to begin with. It was just occupied by him. If it were not for the fact that Rozen did not want to fight needlessly, he would have barged in without a care for the consequences.
But no matter what, this way, Rozen could get what he wanted.
"Let's go. I will lead the way and bring you to explore this Atlas Courtyard."
Nitochris turned around as if she wanted to cut the Gordian knot.
"Wait, Queen Nitochris." Matthew hurriedly said, "What about the mountain people here?"
"Don't worry." Nitochris said disapprovingly, "They are just haunted by nightmares. There will not be any physical problems. It's just a small punishment. I hope they take it as a warning. There are also sphinxes outside that the Pharaoh gave to guard. They will be fine if they stay here."
Hearing this, Matthew was relieved.
So, the two of them followed Nitochris into the depths of the Atlas Courtyard and went underground.
