Apart from that, there was also something else that Angor and Mithra came up with after discussing it with each other.
However, Angor couldn't test it yet. He had to wait for Nausica to do it.
With the arm in hand, Angor headed to Champagne Road. As soon as he stepped out of his room, he saw Number One standing outside. "Mister Padt, Mister Sabot is waiting for you in the living room."
"Sabot?" Angor recognized the man. He was Mithra's student. When Angor first saw Sabot in Bogula's fortress, he already felt that the man looked familiar. But he couldn't remember why.
It took him a long time to recall who Sabot was.
When Sabot sailed to Fey Continent, he rode The Redbud. Sabot, nicknamed "Mad Bear", was the wizard guarding The Redbud at that time. However, Angor never saw him on The Redbud. He only saw Sabot's back when he went to the Cloud Whale.
Later, he saw Sabot when he went to Greya's Barbie's Restaurant. However, Angor was still a mortal back then. He had to be careful around apprentices, let alone wizards. He never looked at Sabot, so his memory was a bit blurry.
Angor didn't know why Sabot wanted to see him, but it must have something to do with Master Mithra.
"Got it. I'll be right there." While walking, he took off his wizard robe and changed into something more formal before heading to the living room.
Sabot had been here for a long time. He was drinking some unknown liquor in the living room. With his burly body, he took up more than half of the sofa.
"Mister Sabot." Angor bowed.
Sabot smiled warmly at Angor.
"Don't be so polite. Mister Mithra has been praising you. If you weren't already under Mister Phantom's tutelage, Mister Mithra would have taken you in as his last student." Sabot smiled. "I'm here because Mister Mithra asked me to."
Angor was waiting for Sabot to finish, but Sabot suddenly changed the topic.
"I heard that you were helping your friend refine a mechanical arm. Have you finished refining the mechanical arm?"
Angor nodded and took out a mechanical arm from his bracelet.
"You don't have to give it to me. I won't understand it even if you give it to me." Sabot asked Angor to put the arm away. "Now that you're done, I assume you're heading to your friend's place?"
"Yes. The purification garden is about to open. The sooner we give it to her, the sooner she can get used to it."
"Actually, Professor Mithra asked me to come over because he wants you to bring the mechanical arm to him first. He's very curious about the finished product." Sabot paused. "Of course, I'll invite your friend to the Potion Hut later. After all, we need her to do the test."
Mithra's request wasn't unreasonable, so Angor didn't dare to disobey. After all, Mithra had put a lot of effort into the creation of the mechanical arm.
Angor nodded and told Sabot about Nausica's location. He then turned around and walked towards the Potion Hut.
When he arrived at Elixir Hut, he was surprised to see that Toya and Yeliya were not there. Only Mithra was at home.
For some reason, Angor felt uncomfortable as soon as he stepped into the hut. It reminded him of the time when he left the Soul Genesis Garden and came to Midworld, where he was stared at by the giant eye of Sesebiras.
However, Sesebiras' gaze was filled with malice, which made Angor's legs tremble and sweat all over his body. This time, Angor didn't sense any malice. Of course, he didn't feel comfortable either.
This kind of feeling was like there was a heavy weight hanging on his heart.
After entering the Potion Hut, Angor also felt uncomfortable because of the prickling sensation.
Fortunately, when Mithra talked with him about alchemy, Angor was inspired by some of Mithra's ideas, so he gradually forgot about his external feelings.
While Mithra and Angor talked about mechanical alchemy, Angor also explained his own ideas. Finally, they talked about the mechanical arm. Angor showed the finished product to Mithra. Mithra wasn't surprised by Angor's speed.
Enchantment alchemy was always faster than synthesis alchemy.
Mithra didn't comment on the final product, but Angor could see the satisfaction in the old man's eyes.
Angor felt proud that he was able to make a master alchemist nod his head in satisfaction.
He told Mithra about some of the questions he had during the crafting process as well as some minor modifications. Mithra also gave him some suggestions. However, Angor noticed something strange. Although Mithra was talking about his own ideas, Angor felt that Mithra's views had changed a lot. It was almost as if Mithra had become a completely different person.
Mithra was an Apothecary after all. His style of Tooling was usually more toward mechanical alchemy. When Angor talked with Mithra a few days ago, he already labeled Mithra's personal style.
But today, when talking with Mithra, Angor felt as if he was talking to a master Tooling alchemist. Mithra's depth, depth, and breadth made Angor feel like a small stream facing a vast ocean. He couldn't see the bottom of it at all. Also, no matter how tricky Angor's questions were, Mithra always gave the simplest and most convenient answers.
Angor wondered if this man was really Mithra.
Angor didn't think too much about it. Even if he had some achievements in enchantment alchemy, he was still a frog in a well when compared to the general knowledge of alchemy. How could a frog in a well compare to an ocean?
He had a feeling that Mithra was also holding back when he talked to him a few days ago.
The conversation continued from the mechanical arm to the concept of "mechs". Angor's idea of "mechs" was based on military technology from Earth, but it was only a general framework. Angor still explained the details from an alchemist's point of view.
As time passed, Mithra gave him a mysterious and satisfied smile when he was almost done explaining his concept.
Angor didn't see Mithra's expression clearly. At the same time, the door of the Elixir Hut was pushed open. Sabot came in with Nausica in tow.
Nausica was cautious at first, but when she saw Angor greeting her with a smile, she relaxed a little. Sabot gestured for her to walk to Angor.
Sabot said his goodbyes and turned to leave.
Sabot left so quickly that Angor didn't notice that Sabot was looking at "Mithra" with a hint of respect instead of his usual playfulness.
"Since the subject is here, shall we begin the test?" Mithra didn't even look at Nausica.
Angor nodded. He felt a little uncomfortable when Mithra called him "subject".
Nausica didn't think too much about it. Her eyes were glued to the metallic mechanical arm on the table. She couldn't help feeling surprised.
She was completely mesmerized. She unconsciously touched the arm in front of her. She thought the final product would be a giant mechanical arm. However, what she didn't expect was that this arm was as slender as her left arm, and there wasn't a single bit of disharmony.
The mechanical arm was streamlined and slim, but it didn't look weak at all. It had a silver metallic texture. Every joint and pivot of the arm was shining with a faint light. The runes on the arm made it look even more elegant.
On the wrist, there was a pattern of a butterfly. It matched perfectly with the "Single Butterfly" on Nausica's waist. Such a beautiful drawing style was passed down from generation to generation.
"Is this for me?" Nausica was surprised.
Angor nodded. The arm was controlled by EMG signals, which meant it had to be perfectly aligned with the meridians on each cross section. For the first time, Angor helped Nausica put it on and explained to her what she needed to pay attention to.
Nausica clenched her hand into a fist. She felt a little sluggish, but that was something that would happen in the early stages of getting used to the new environment. As long as she used her fist more often, the sluggish feeling would slowly fade away and eventually disappear completely.
Angor opened a small opening three centimeters below the elbow of the arm, revealing a loading slot. "This is where you put magic crystals. It can use the runes on the arm to unleash their power. You can also use your own mana as the energy source without a magic crystal.
"But I recommend that you don't put any magic crystals in the early stages. You should feel the mana consumption of the runes yourself first. That way, you won't make any mistakes when using the runes.
"This is filled with mana conduits. You can use them as meridians. They're almost the same as the ones on your left hand.
"This is a catalytic rune. It can amplify the effect of your mana …
"And this is …"
Angor slowly explained the functions of each part of the arm. The most special one was the five-fingered magic gun barrel, which could be used as both a mana conduit and bullets.
"I'll give you the blueprint of the bullets later. You can engrave runes on them or add special effects through synthesis. I can help you make bullets later. If I'm not here, you can also ask other alchemists to help you with the blueprint. "Angor looked at the center of his palm.
In the center of his silver palm, there were small circles of runes that looked like whirlpools. This was what Angor spent a lot of effort to design.
Spiral runes.
