Chapter 173 The Ingredients of Candles
The pipe behind the candlestick made Thor's hair stand on end, but it could not stop him from determined to continue the experiment.
Although Ferguson wanted to harm people, the conditions he offered really moved Saul's heart.
Thor lacks magic crystals, credits, and various rare experimental materials. And now he still has a lot of troubles. If he wants to solve the troubles, he needs to do in-depth research, which is another big new expense.
Since Ferguson and Culkin want to plot against themselves, they throw a sugar-coated bullet. So why can't Sol swallow the sugar coating and throw the cannonball back?
What the real candle was worth, he didn't know, but he should be able to make a counterfeit.
Anyway, Ferguson just wanted to use the candle as evidence to blackmail him. He didn't really need to use it, as long as it looked okay.
Of course, this generally needs to be a high imitation. If it looks fake, it won’t be sugar-coated.
Just as he said, Sol immediately started a counterfeit experiment on the properties of candles.
He first listed the various properties of candles, then deduced the substances that may be contained in them, and even calculated and derived the synthesis reaction formula.
This derivation lasted until midnight.
As a result of the high-intensity mental operation, Sol was particularly sleepy and did not want to use meditation as a substitute.
"The cocoon of the nightmare butterfly has been taken out and sealed. There is no abnormal movement at the moment... Why not take this opportunity to take a nap and see if it will be affected by the cocoon." After comforting himself,
Thor lay down on the long table with peace of mind. On the low bed next to it.
This bed belonged to Kujin. Because it was too big to transport, Kujin simply left it to Saul.
Sol simply changed the bedding and continued to use it.
Before going to bed, Saul removed the gauze, but his left eye was still gray and he couldn't see clearly.
"It seems that I need to find someone to use high-level healing witchcraft to recover. I hope it won't be too expensive to heal the eyes."
Thor slowly closed his eyes.
"I hope I won't have any dreams tonight."
He fell asleep quickly.
But tonight there are also people who are tossing and turning and having trouble sleeping all night.
The powerful third-level apprentices Ku Jin and Ferguson secretly gathered together to discuss tomorrow's response;
Kong Sha, who had lost half of her beauty, huddled under her bed, looking forward to and fearing the future;
only during the day was she stamped with a five-finger seal by Thor. Angela, wearing a mask, walks through the West Tower at night;
while the library, which is usually as quiet as a tomb, is extremely lively tonight.
The three librarians, young, middle-aged and old, gathered together for the first time.
"Are you sure?" the young man asked nervously.
"Okay." The old man raised his hand. Almost all of his ten fingers were missing part of the first knuckle, and they have not recovered yet.
The young man's eyes immediately brightened, but were soon blurred by tears. "We... have a chance to get out!" But
the middle-aged man threw cold water at this moment, "Are you crazy? Are you crazy? How can we escape?"
The middle-aged man's face was full of sorrow, and he was still looking left and right when he spoke, fearing that a figure would suddenly appear behind everyone and stare at them coldly.
The young man looked at the middle-aged man with disdain, "Afraid? What is there to be afraid of? Can he kill us again?"
But the middle-aged man trembled all over just hearing the word "him".
The old man ignored the timid middle-aged man and touched his beard.
"I have an idea...Tomorrow, we will find someone to try him."
The young man didn't know why. "Didn't you try it?"
The old man said cruelly, "Try it harder this time and sneak out directly!"
The middle-aged man was frightened . He jumped up, his whole body submerged into the ceiling and then fell down, "You're crazy, you are really crazy!"
But the young man showed a smile that was twisted with excitement, "You're done, who's going?"
The old man stood up with his hands behind his back, "I'm going!"
The young man pursed his lips, but did not object.
Only the middle-aged man kept trembling his lips and repeating: "Crazy, everyone is crazy!"
...
The early morning sun could not shine into the dark wizard tower.
Sol had a dreamless night and slept very soundly.
He jumped up and felt refreshed. Even the gloomy warehouse looked much cuter.
Thor stood up, ready to clean up and continue the experiment. But when he saw the experimental records on the table, he suddenly felt that his current perspective was wrong.
Thor raised his hand and touched his eyes, then closed his right eye and looked around. He was shocked to find that his left eye had regained vision.
He quickly used the reflective knife on the table to observe himself. He was surprised to see that his eyes returned to normal and their color returned to black.
"How come my body... can heal itself?"
Thor quickly went to check the cocoon sealed in the test tube. When he saw the small silver ball floating up and down slowly, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the cocoon didn't come back into his eyes, otherwise his work yesterday would have been in vain.
Since the eyes were not healed due to calluses, did someone secretly treat him? Or is it the body's self-healing, as Saul initially suspected?
The only people who can freely enter and exit the second warehouse are Thor who works here and Gortha, the owner of the Wizard Tower.
Although the tower master definitely has this ability, he will basically not actively interfere with Sol's study and research, and will very much let him grow on his own.
Even so, the possibility of self-healing is higher.
Thinking of this, Thor simply picked up the knife and disinfected it briefly. Then he rolled up his sleeves and left three consecutive wounds on his right arm.
The three wounds were of varying depths.
After simple disinfection and hemostasis, Saul made a simple bandage with gauze.
He then recorded the time and wound performance to study whether his body really had the ability to heal itself.
After doing all this, Sol's energy turned back to the candle.
Yesterday, he basically analyzed the ingredients of the candles that have been burning all year round in the Wizard Tower, and by comparing the experimental notes he had left over the past few years, he actually found one of the main ingredients.
That is the flower juice of companion flowers.
It's just that the composition of this flower juice is slightly different from the composition of the flower juice in Sol's notes. I don’t know whether it’s the difference in experimental data or the difference in material composition.
After all, companion flowers are a large category in themselves, with various functions, such as making poison, increasing magic, stabilizing the spiritual body, etc.
Sol owned several companion flowers and kept many petals.
He immediately took out two petals with different functions and conducted another component analysis experiment.
There are a few differences between the two sets of data he got this time and the data in the candles, but the overall trend is consistent.
"The newly obtained two sets of data themselves have similar differences. Then I can infer that this component is indeed a companion flower."
In order to ensure the reliability of the data, Sol ruthlessly took out two petals that were the same as before and conducted the experiment again.
The experimental result is that the second set of data is almost the same as the first set of data, and the difference between each set of data is also almost the same.
Sol picked up the analysis table of the candle's components, "So, the companion flower in this candle should be a type that I have not cultivated."
Sol stared back and forth at the data table in his hand for a few minutes, then suddenly put a pen on the paper I wrote the words "Stabilize the spiritual body" and then drew a big question mark.
"The flowers added to the candles are probably companion flowers that can stabilize the spiritual body! That's why the Wizard Tower has been cultivating and acquiring this kind of flower." Are the candles all over the Wizard Tower stabilizing the
spiritual body of one or more entities?
"If it is for this purpose, the candle is indeed very important. But cutting it off a little will not affect the effectiveness of the candle. If Kujin wants to threaten me with a candle, he will at least ask for a complete candle." However, one of the candles was
identified One main ingredient, the other Sol has not found the corresponding material.
If there is no way to make a candle that can deceive Ferguson before this afternoon, then Sol will have no choice but to reject the other party's deal first.
It's just that Ferguson, who is in abnormal health, may jump over the wall and attack him.
Although Sol was not afraid, he couldn't eat the sugar-coated food in front of him.
"What is the other main material? Or what can be used to show the same characteristics?" "
Suspected blood vessels and intestinal tracts, the white substance transported inside, can automatically repair candles that have been burned and melted..."
Sol stopped turning his pen and shifted his gaze to the arm where he had just made three small wounds.
"Try?"
