"That's it? You're not going to change it? " He gave Ai Dehua a strange look. "Since you know about 'Wonder Water', you should know that it's a special catalyst, right?"
"Are you sure you want to use a catalyst to make a wig?"
Ai Dehua nodded. "Yes. Wonder Water is used as a catalyst, but the catalyst itself is a special kind of energy diversion agent that contains the purest and most suitable energy.
"Coincidentally, I'm not picky when it comes to making wigs. I'm picky about the purity of energy."
This was why Ai Dehua's choice of materials was perfect.
However, there were other materials that were more suitable than Wonder Water, such as some liquids that contained pure elemental energy. They were also very pure.
However, Ai Dehua did not plan to use any of them. He had already used them before.
The Water of Refinement was a rare item. He had only heard of it in the past but had never come into contact with it.
If he missed this opportunity, he didn't know when he would be able to find the Qi Refining Water again. Therefore, no matter what, he had to try the miraculous water.
Maybe it was a perfect match for his talent?
Of course, Ai Dehua also knew that the most likely outcome was "nothing".
But it didn't matter. Anyway, he had already told them that his talent might not work. Even if he used commonly used materials in the past, there was a possibility of failure. Why not be bolder and try something new?
Seeing Ai Dehua's determined look, he did not try to persuade him. "Do as you wish."
Ai Dehua nodded gratefully and drew the Wonder Water to himself.
Next, Ai Dehua began to take out his wig making tools from the exile space.
There was bleach, a dressing mirror, a mini version of a hairnet weaving machine, a mini version of an automatic hair inserter, a mini version of a universal skin printer …
He only used mini versions because the official ones were kept in Baibo's Tooth Dye Shop. He could not go out to get one now, so he had to use the mini version.
There was not much difference between the mini version and the official version anyway. The official version was more efficient and faster, and it could process a large number of half-finished products at once. The mini version, on the other hand, was slower and could only process one product at a time.
However, it wasn't that much slower.
After all, he was only making a wig for a palm-sized hamster. According to Ai Dehua's estimation, even if he used the official version, he would only be able to speed up by one or two minutes. There was no need to change it.
Cute and suitable for pets …
Ai Dehua began to imagine the shapes of various wigs in his mind.
While thinking, she took out a special dressing mirror.
The mirror was facing Nakbi in the cage. A small hamster with milky white fur appeared on the blurry mirror.
The little hamster raised its two paws and looked into the distance with its grain-like eyes.
Ai Dehua looked at the little Hamster in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction. He pressed the button beside the mirror, and a mist immediately floated onto the mirror.
Then, the fog turned into a large amount of hair.
Ai Dehua's hands worked quickly. The hair on the mirror was cut short, thin, and thinned until it was almost the same as the Nakbi's hair. Only then did Ai Dehua stop.
Then, he covered the little hamster's head with the translucent fur.
In an instant, all kinds of hairstyles appeared on the little hamster's head.
Next to each hairstyle, there was a dyeing command that could change the hair color.
Seeing this scene, everyone understood.
Ai Dehua was simulating the little hamster's wig to see which type was more suitable for it. After finally deciding, he started to make the wig.
"When Shiruda went to the castle for the first time, she played the hair-changing game in the mirror and fell into the trap," Luigi said. "This is the hair-changing mirror that made Shiruda fall into the trap?"
Luigi said this in the Spirit Bond. Since Ai Dehua was already in the zone, he didn't want to disturb him.
Glepnir said, "I don't know if it's the same hair-changing mirror, but Shiruda should be trapped like this."
Speaking of this, Glepnir sighed helplessly. He seemed to be ashamed that his good friend couldn't resist a hair-changing game.
Luigi said, "It's actually quite interesting. The next time you make a wig for me, I want to play with it too. I want to see which hairstyle and hair color suits me. "
Glepnir said in a plain tone, "Instead of thinking about which hairstyle, why don't you think about how to change your temperament?"
Luigi: "???"
Angor heard the conversation between Glepnir and Luigi, but he didn't join in. His attention was now attracted by the mirror in Ai Dehua's hand.
He noticed that the mirror was actually an illusion-type alchemy item.
Regardless of whether it was the little hamster projected by the mirror or the hair transformed by the mist, they were all controlled illusions created by the illusion nodes created by the dressing mirror.
The level of these illusions was very low, and one could tell at a glance that they were fake. However, they were quite useful when used to change one's hair, change one's hair color, and look forward.
There should be a lot of potential customers, especially women.
After all, many women had to struggle with their hair and makeup every day. Having a mirror that could change its appearance at any time would save them a lot of trouble.
"But this isn't the most convenient way …"
"What?" Everyone looked at him.
Angor finally realized that he just blurted it out without thinking. Luckily, they were the only ones who heard it. Ai Dehua was busy with his work and didn't interrupt him.
Angor quickly gathered his thoughts and explained through the Spirit Bond, "I was just thinking that this mirror isn't the best yet."
"The best?" Luigi asked, "What's the best?"
"For example, when the user changes their hairstyle and hair color in the mirror to their satisfaction, they can store it and use it again later. Also, they can directly copy the hairstyle and color on their head. It's better than having to weave a wig himself. "
Ai Dehua only weaved wigs because he could give them special effects. If Angor used a wig that could change one's hairstyle and color at any time, it wouldn't have any special effects.
It was purely for the sake of looking good.
However, most of the time, witches only wanted to "look good".
Therefore, a mirror that could change one's hairstyle at any time according to one's preferences … From a certain perspective, it was indeed more "extreme" than what Ai Dehua was currently using.
Everyone else also deeply agreed.
Angor wasn't done yet. "Changing hairstyle and color isn't the best yet. If the mirror is a full-body one, it can match the outfit and make it appear on the user's face. That'll be even better.
If it's combined with the Shepherd God's Robe, it can also grant various professional effects. I think it'll be even better … "
Angor's imagination was getting bigger and bigger. But to the others, it was nothing more than a fantasy. Maybe it was an alchemist's occupational disease.
Just like an apothecary who stumbled upon a magic plant on the street, he or she would probably come up with a bunch of formulas and combinations in his or her head.
It was the same thing.
Angor wasn't sure if he would actually do it.
Contrary to everyone's expectations, however, he really wanted to try making such an alchemy product.
Even if he couldn't combine it with the Shepherd God's Robe, it wouldn't be too difficult to make a full-body mirror that could allow him to change his hairstyle at any time. He could use it, give it to someone else, or sell it.
Besides, the tea party was coming soon.
Maybe he could use this mirror as a new gimmick?
Leona would be so excited if she knew about it.
Angor shook his head and put the idea aside for now. He looked at Ai Dehua again.
It seemed Ai Dehua had already decided on his hairstyle. However, no one knew which one. Ai Dehua had already matched several hairstyles on the mirror. Which one he would choose in the end would depend on the final product.
Ai Dehua began working on various machines.
"You're not thinking about the best?" Luigi asked.
Angor ignored him and kept watching Ai Dehua's work. He didn't pay attention to Ai Dehua's machines until he noticed a familiar symbol on them.
It was the symbol of the R&D Department.
With the logo of the R&D Institute, it meant that Ai Dehua's machines were all produced by the R&D Institute. However, it didn't mean they were made by a master alchemist from the department. They could be made by a master alchemist's student, or they could be developed and sold by the department for general use.
For example, energy detectors, spectrometers, spirit gauges, and so on. These were all common tools used by wizards, and they were all developed by the department. Even though they could be produced on an assembly line, these machines would still bear the logo of the department to show off their great research ability.
However, Ai Dehua's hairnet weaving machine, automatic hair inserter, and universal skin printer were obviously not made for general use.
Ai Dehua must have asked someone from the department to make them for him.
Since these machines had the logo of the department, they were probably made by one of the master alchemists or their student.
Who could it be?
Gusilo? Matthew? Or Megustone?
As he pondered, Angor noticed a special string of electricity flowing out of each machine, including the weaving machine, hair inserter, and printer.
The three strings of electricity went straight into Ai Dehua's head as if they were going into his brain.
As the three strings of electricity connected, all three machines began working at the same time.
He watched as the strands of hair disappeared from the knitting machine, went through the hair insertion machine, and inserted into the artificial skin created by the printer.
In just a few minutes, a semi-finished wig was created.
Ai Dehua didn't try to control the machines at all. Instead, he used the three strings of electricity to complete everything. And it seemed to be more efficient.
Seeing this, Angor could already guess who made these devices.
It was "Wanderer of Nerves" Stirling.
Like Angor, Stirling was a member of the department. However, he didn't belong to Floating Mech City. He didn't even belong to any wizard organization. He was an independent wizard who usually lived in the mottled iron wizard tower in Punk's Theme Park.
Despite being an independent wizard, Stirling's name was known by everyone in the southern wizardry region.
He was a Mechanical Magus, and he had invented the concept of "Mechanical Nerves"!
This convenient method of controlling machines using nerves completely turned mechanical alchemy into the mainstream.
Even the "mediocre" director of the department once said that the invention of Mechanical Nerves pushed the development of mechanical alchemy forward for at least a thousand years.
This was enough to prove Stirling's contribution to the field of mechanical alchemy as well as his great talent.
Angor had never seen Stirling in person, but he had seen Mechanical Nerves before. The three strings of electricity that poked out of the machine were Mechanical Nerves invented by Stirling.
Therefore, Ai Dehua's pieces were most likely custom-made by Stirling.
Of course, it was also possible that Stirling's apprentices made them.
It made sense. Other members of the department were not easy to find. Besides, even if he did find them, they would probably refuse to make such tools.
Stirling, on the other hand, was different.
This person was famous for being greedy for money and would die for it.
Even if he didn't ask for anything from Stirling, he would have to pay a price.
Earlier, when Sanders went to Punk's theme park to look for Stirling, Stirling offered him a high price even though they were old friends.
However, it was also because Stirling was obsessed with money that he was the easiest to see. As long as you paid enough, even if you asked Stirling to make a blow-up doll for you, Stirling would do it without hesitation.
Stirling's way of doing things affected his apprentices as well.
As far as Angor knew, Stirling's apprentices were just like him. As long as you had enough money, they could make anything for you.
Ai Dehua must have paid a great price to get Stirling or his apprentices to make these machines.
Speaking of which …
Angor hadn't met any of the master alchemists since he joined the department. If possible, he would like to talk to Stirling. Whether it was knowledge about mechanical alchemy or the development of Mechanical Nerves, Angor had a lot to ask about.
However, he didn't plan to do it himself.
After the tea party, he believed that the master alchemists, including Stirling, would come to him on their own.
After all, "Infinite Alchemy" was a beautiful and tempting candy.
As long as one was an alchemist, it was impossible for them not to take the bait.
