Felipe put his hands back into the pockets of his black coat habitually. His face was still gloomy, but there were many thoughts in his mind. Either Professor is a real lunatic, or he really has the confidence to synthesize the living matter in the human body with elements or non-living things!
"On the one hand, they believe that Professor is a lunatic, and on the other hand, they believe that Professor is the next winner of the Holm Crown prize because of his revolutionary and groundbreaking breakthrough in the field of Element and Necromancy. No matter which side I choose to believe, I can't convince myself. No wonder Professor said that he's very cunning and extremely dangerous on the Cleansing List.
"Should I make a bet with him or start a war?"
Felipe hesitated. His strong curiosity and his confidence in necromancy made him want to see if Professor could really synthesize living matter, and if the Life Force Theory was finally the turn after the other basic theories of ancient magic had been overturned one by one.
This was the attitude that a level four arcanist in his early thirties should have toward knowledge.
"Professor, it seems that you have nothing to lose except for the apology." Felipe opened his mouth slowly, which made the sorcerers and apprentices even more surprised. They wondered if Felipe, the powerful necromancer, had also been infected by Professor's madness.
Lucien tried his best to hold back the joy in his heart and said calmly, "At least my mission has failed." What he was betting on was that the young and powerful sorcerer from the Continental Magic Congress must have made great achievements in the field of arcana and would not be able to resist witnessing such a great experiment that overturned the basic theories of necromancy.
Felipe reached his left hand out of his pocket and clenched his four fingers into a fist. His tone became firm, "Alright, Mr. Professor, let's make the bet. Shall we sign the Devil's Contract now? "
According to the Book of Astrology and Elements, a magic contract was a document that had to be notarized by all kinds of powerful beings. Once the contract was violated, the sorcerer would be punished accordingly. According to the power level of the notary, some contracts were directly embedded with magic power in the document, which was the common magic contract that bound common sorcerers; some contracts were notarized by demons, which could be used to bind middle-rank sorcerers, senior-rank sorcerers and archmages according to the level of the summoned demons; and the contracts and oaths of legendary sorcerers seemed to be witnessed by the world's origin.
"I trust you, Mr. Felipe, and I trust myself, so we don't need to sign the Devil's Contract," said Lucien calmly.
In fact, Lucien was not powerful enough to summon a demon at all. Even if Felipe did the summoning, the demon would find out his real level. Lucien, Lucien, and Lucien, Lucien, and Lucien, Lucien, and Lucien's. Lucien, Lucien, and the demon.
Or did he not want the summoned devil to know his identity?
"If I don't keep my promise, I don't think Viscount Carendia will welcome me as a guest." Lucien pointed at Viscount Carendia, who seemed to be looking forward to the experiment.
Viscount Carendia did not expect that he would be affected even though he was standing. Thinking that the professor probably did not want to leave his real name on the devil contract, he chuckled and said, "Gentlemen, why don't I be the witness?"
Felipe nodded slightly, "Then let the viscount be the witness. Mr. Professor, please begin the experiment. "
Lucien waved his hand, "To be fair, I'll tell you how to do it. Mr. Felipe, you'll do it yourself. I don't want you to blame me for tampering with the experiment."
"A very reasonable suggestion." Felipe couldn't help but applaud. On one hand, it made the experiment more credible, and on the other hand, it was possible for him to learn a lot from the details of the subversive and explosive arcana experiments. As for the failure of the experiment, Felipe did not even think about it, because if he did, he would not be able to verify whether the experiment was effective or not. He believed that the professor also thought so, which was why he made such a reasonable suggestion.
Lucien grinned but did not say anything. He could not say that it was because he was not powerful enough to complete the experiment, could he?
After telling Felipe about the high-temperature and high-pressure requirements of the experiment, Lucien watched Felipe take out a fist-sized dark gold hut from his pocket and many small alchemical devices from it.
Magically, as soon as the devices were taken out of the hut, under Felipe's control, they quickly returned to their original size. Soon, the platform was turned into a nice small magic lab.
Lucien was very envious. He did not know how to get such an alchemical item that could be used to store things and carry them around. It was a great helper for traveling and meditation experiments.
When Felipe was setting up the magic lab, the sorcerers and apprentices below began to whisper to each other.
"Do you think Mr. Professor can really create living matter?" Fatty asked the person beside him, half hesitant and half expectant.
The tall and thin one, Red Wine, shook his head without hesitation, "Of course not! Life Force Theory is one of the basic theories of necromancy laid down by many ancient legendary sorcerers. It's the unquestionable truth! "
"Yes, it's the unquestionable truth!" An official necromancer in front of them nodded solemnly, "Our success in refining human bodies is the best evidence!"
Fatty looked at them and said in a low voice, "But if Mr. Professor loses, we'll have to join the Hand of Paleness. If that's the case, I'd rather join the Church and become a night watcher! "
Bread lowered his voice and gritted his teeth, "Maybe Mr. Professor wants to attack Felipe when he's doing the experiment, so that Felipe won't be able to react in time!"
He hated Felipe so much that he did not even call him "Mr.".
"How mean …" Another apprentice, Grouper, curled his lips and glanced at him, "But I like it!"
The necromancer in front of them shook his head and sneered, "Do you think Mr. Felipe won't take any precautions? Do you think Viscount Carendia, as the notary, will just stand there and watch?"
On the high platform, Sidney looked at Felipe who was busy setting up the lab and asked with a poker face, "What is Mr. Professor trying to do?" He did not believe that Felipe's experiment would succeed at all.
"I don't know. I need to think about joining the Hand of Paleness." Tess did not know what Sidney was trying to do, so she started to think about how to get more benefits from the Hand of Paleness.
Noticing that Sidney was looking at him, Ceci shook his head stiffly, "I've decided to join the Hand of Paleness. It has nothing to do with me whether Mr. Professor can succeed or not. Of course, in my opinion, Life Force Theory is the undisputed truth, and it's not something that Mr. Professor can overturn. "
Hearing their answer, Sidney was silent for a while and then nodded seriously, "I also need to think about joining the Hand of Paleness."
Felipe finished setting up the lab and looked at Lucien with his black eyes, "Mr. Professor, please tell us how to do the experiment."
Lucien recalled the last issue of Arcana that he read and made sure that he was not mistaken about the symbol table in the appendix. Then he said, "Separate nitrogen and hydrogen and store them separately."
Lucien was going to synthesize carbamide, which was the first man-made organic compound on Earth. The reason why Lucien did not synthesize other compounds or use the laboratory method was that he did not know the corresponding symbols and names of some compounds in this world. If he only told Felipe what they were, he would be exposed. After all, Felipe was a powerful sorcerer in the field of Element and must have known the names of similar substances.
The industrial reaction was simple, and the materials were all common. Lucien had seen them in the contents and symbol tables of arcana journals. The high temperature and high pressure that were difficult to achieve in the 19th century laboratories back on Earth was not difficult to achieve in this magic world.
After so many years of arcana experiments, the sorcerers had already invented the spell Gas Separation. It was not difficult for Felipe to separate the two gases and store them in a vacuum glass jar.
Felipe looked at Lucien with a bit of doubt in his eyes.
"Take a piece of magnet …" Lucien asked Felipe to put the catalyst into the reactor, "Put the gas into the reactor according to the ratio, and then heat it up to about five hundred degrees. The pressure is …"
Following Lucien's explanation, Felipe tried his best to activate all the alchemy circles and the fourth-circle spell Pressure Cage, and finally the temperature and pressure of the reactor met the requirement.
After the reaction was over, Felipe sensed the reactor and said, "There's no living matter, Mr. Professor."
He did not question Lucien, because he believed that even if Lucien failed, it would not be so simple.
"Separate the nitrogen and hydrogen, and keep the remaining gas." Lucien was still in no hurry.
Felipe grinned, "It's preparing ammonia. Why don't you just say it, Mr. Professor? I have it in my lab. "
"… How do I know what ammonia means in this world?" Lucien was speechless, "Cool it down and let it liquefy. Then, separate the carbon dioxide and store it. "
Felipe knew what Lucien was going to make from the materials. He sneered, "You think you can synthesize carbamide with such a simple experiment?"
Then, according to Lucien's requirement, Felipe put the liquid ammonia and carbon dioxide into the reactor again according to the ratio that Lucien told him.
It was still the same high temperature and high pressure, but this time, the temperature was only about two hundred degrees, and the pressure was only a hundred times higher than the surroundings.
"Keep the reaction like this. We'll wait for a while." Lucien smiled.
Felipe, other sorcerers, apprentices, and even Viscount Carendia believed that this was just one of the steps of the magic experiment, because the experiment to break the Life Force Theory could not be so simple.
They all waited in silence with different feelings and disbelief.
Time ticked by.
PS: Although I can make up my own words to create a sense of reality, it's not good for your reading. So, I'll use the original names of the materials. Don't think about why the materials in this world are also called nitrogen and hydrogen. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you're welcome to come to qidian.com to vote.
