The amber containing magic power was quickly delivered to Liszt's hands without him having to worry about it.
"Sir, this is a strange stone dug out from the sand and stones by the serfs responsible for expanding the Flower Port's pier square." Isaiah personally sent a transparent yellow stone to the castle. "It is as transparent as a gem, and there is a sprite worm inside!"
Sprite worm?
Liszt quickly took the palm-sized flat stone, which was yellow in color and very transparent.
The most wonderful thing was that it was wrapped in a fat sprite worm. The sprite worm curled up into a doughnut shape and looked lifelike. There were some impurities such as leaves around it. The overall shape indicated that it was amber, the amber rewarded by the smoke mission.
"Is this amber containing magic power?" Liszt quickly released Magic Eyes to observe the amber.
Suddenly, he found a faint magic power radiating with chaotic colors. Moreover, it was unexpectedly emitted from the sprite worm. The sprite worm wrapped in amber had yellow and black stripes on its body. Liszt didn't know if it was its original appearance or if it had changed color in the amber.
This surprised him: "A sprite worm that has turned into amber can also have magic power?"
As far as he knew, amber was a drop of pine resin buried underground for thousands of years. Under the action of pressure and heat, it petrified and formed a gem-like stone. When the pine resin dripped down, it just happened to wrap the small sprite on the trunk, turning it into a magnificent fossil.
However, amber on Earth was generally formed 40 to 60 million years ago. After all, it took a long time to fossilize pine resin.
Liszt didn't know how long it would take for amber to form in this world.
But it was definitely not something that could be done in a short period of time. Otherwise, it would just be rosin, not amber.
Liszt played with the amber for a moment and said to Isaiah: "Apart from this stone, are there any other stones found at the scene?"
"None at the moment."
"Keep looking. It is best to turn over the sand and stones in that area to see if there are other similar stones."
Isaiah asked: "Sir, what is this stone? I have never seen it."
"Amber is a stone formed from rosin after tens of millions of years. Do you see this sprite worm? I suspect that it is a sprite worm from tens of millions of years ago. "
"Tens of millions of years ago?" Isaiah was speechless.
The history of humans in this world was not even clear for a few hundred years. The few early records were all attributed to the Moon Empire, so it was hard to explain. It was unimaginable tens of millions of years ago. Even Liszt was confused. Were the humans here evolved?
If they were evolved, then how did elves and dragons evolve?
There was also the siren. According to A Qi, she was born in a shell. There seemed to be no relevant evolutionary chain between a shell and a siren in human form.
Therefore …
No one knew what the world was like tens of millions of years ago.
"If you let the serfs look for more of this amber, they may find that the amber contains more things from tens of millions of years ago … The pine resin drips down and wraps around the things from that time. Then, it can continue to be preserved, just like the sprite worm preserved in this amber."
Isaiah was also curious. He replied in a loud voice: "Yes, Sir, I will personally supervise the serfs in looking for the amber!"
After the administrative officer left, Liszt was still playing with the amber.
He began to think.
He always believed that every reward from the smoke mission was valuable, except for the Wind Peregrine Falcon. That damned bird, it never came back. He should have killed it and eaten it back then.
"Since the smoke mission sent this amber and specifically mentioned that it contains magic power, what does it mean? Is it a natural magic equipment, like the black pearl? That's not right. The magic power does not originate from the amber, but from the spirit worm in the amber. However, the spirit worm should have integrated with the amber, right? "
Tens of millions of years of infiltration.
The amber and the things wrapped have long been inseparable, leaving only the original structure.
"So, what is the use of this amber? Is it an ornament? " Liszt shook his head and made a decision, "Let Chrissy study it to see if she can find any valuable clues … It just so happens that she is about to become my second great wizard!"
Chrissy's promotion to a great wizard had not happened yet, but it would happen soon.
Because the smoke mission had already plucked this thread of fate.
"Mission: Flower Town Restaurant's chef Pavel is very interested in the 'tofu' reward issued by the Lord. However, he has tried a variety of bean products, but was unable to make tofu. This has already cost him all his savings, but he still does not give up. Why not support him in continuing to study tofu. Reward: a great wizard. "
Tofu, this was Liszt's biggest complaint.
He knew that tofu was made from beans, but what was brine, he still did not understand. He had offered a reward early on, hoping that someone could make beans into soft gelatinous food.
However, more than a year had passed, and still no chef had been able to complete this research. However, it had spawned many surprises – fermented beans, soy milk, bean sprouts.
Now.
It seemed that the dawn of tofu had arrived. Liszt did not hesitate to support Pavel with ten gold coins and let him continue to study tofu. He also told Bao Pavel everything he knew about tofu, hoping that it would help Bao Pavel develop the long-awaited tofu sooner.
It would also allow Chrissy Truth to advance to a great wizard sooner.
Apart from Chrissy, there was only Paris among the wizards of the fief – Paris was obviously not mature enough, so it could only be that Chrissy was about to advance.
… …
In the magic workshop.
Due to the lack of magic ingredients, Chrissy only needed to take seven or eight days a month to make magic potions from the fief's magic ingredients. The rest of the time was used to study advanced magic and magic arrays – in essence, advanced magic was an even more advanced magic array.
"Sir Viscount, why are you here?" Chrissy was a little surprised. Liszt had just come to pick up the magic ingredients yesterday.
Liszt smiled, "Are you still studying advanced magic?"
"I am studying black pearls and pink pearls. These two pearls are natural magic arrays and have given me a lot of inspiration. I have also begun to try to make them into magic equipment."
"Black pearls and pink pearls are indeed very good research materials, but I have brought you another precious material, which may give you new inspiration."
With that, Liszt took out a palm-sized oblate amber and handed it to Chrissy.
She only took a glance.
Chrissy exclaimed, "What is this, a gem? It is so beautiful! I have never seen such a gem before, and it even contains … a sprite worm? "
"This is amber, a treasure formed from a wonderful misunderstanding tens of millions of years ago." Liszt explained the origin of amber.
It was not an exaggeration to say that amber was a treasure.
