Chapter 233: Make Alchemy Great Again
In the dark underground city, Amber is performing the world weaving technique.
But this time, there was no sucker to provide him with huge magic power, so Amber could only consume the gold in the golden throne.
It really spared no expense, but in order to transform this underground city as quickly as possible, Amberxiu had no choice but to do this.
The world becomes a canvas on which Amber can paint freely, transforming the world into what he wants.
"First, dig out the entire city."
Amberxiu's fingers slid in the air, and the sand and gravel that had been there for who knows how many years began to loosen. It used to take dozens of swings of the shovel to knock down a little bit, but now it was sliding down like water and being sent into the empty houses.
Amber's perception spread, and the buried city began to reveal its true appearance.
As previously judged, this is a huge city in the shape of a five-pointed star. Its area is estimated to be similar to that of the main city of Alchemy City, enough to accommodate more than 100,000 people... However, considering that the original residents were giants, this city may only be able to accommodate less than 10,000 people.
What made Amberxiu happy was that there was a lot of gold in those areas that had seen the light of day again.
The giants really love gold. In the center of the city, there is a statue made entirely of gold.
It is a pity that the statue has been squeezed by sand and stones for many years, and its original appearance can no longer be seen. It can only be roughly seen as a human figure.
Amber Xiu roughly estimated that the total value of this gold was definitely more than 100 million gold coins.
"No wonder the dwarves get rich by digging graves. There is so much gold in any dungeon. How much have they accumulated after so many years of digging?"
Amberxiu suddenly wanted to take a trip to the Dwarf Treasury, maybe he could get great satisfaction from it.
Digging up the sand is just the first step; the next step is to bring the city back to life.
"First of all, there needs to be a good ventilation system here."
Following Amber's operation, two eternal air currents appeared above the city, making the polluted air much fresher.
“Then, I need a clean water source.”
Clear water began to flow out of the square in the center of the city, and then turned into a huge fountain. The clear water flowed, washing away the dust and stains, making the city seem to be reborn.
Harvey stood beside Amber Xiu, looking at everything in front of him, and exclaimed: "This is like the creation of the world, teacher, this is the power that only gods have, right?"
He had never heard of the world weaving technique. Seeing such a scene with his own eyes, what is the difference between this and the gods? Can a legend master this kind of power? Amber said: "Compared with the gods, it is far behind. Do you think this water is created out of nothing? This spell is actually just to connect the underground water source to this city according to my request. The same is true for these winds. Didn't you notice that the temperature in the city has changed? The underground magma flows through the periphery of this city in an ingenious way, and a temperature difference appears in the southwest corner, which forms this wind.
"The world-making technique cannot create something out of nothing, it can only change the environment. But a true god can completely change the laws of this world."
This is the case with the Golden Desert, where only a slight change in the air occurs, changing the refractive index of sunlight; the same is true for the Orc Mountains, where the eternal thunderclouds merely turn a possible thunderstorm into a constant thunderstorm.
At this point, Amberxiu thought of the blessing Catherine had received, that she would not suffer any harm under the moonlight. This conceptual invincibility was what truly changed the laws of the world.
Harvey could understand what Amber said, but he still said, "But in my opinion, it's still almost like a god."
No matter how talented Harvey was, in all those years of wandering he had always been dealing with the lowest of the lowest classes, and he couldn't even handle Hastings' fists.
Amber said to Harvey, who had never seen the world, "If you are my student, you must look far ahead. With your talent, it is not difficult to reach the legendary level. When the time comes, you can evaluate what a god is."
Harvey was also looking forward to this future, but as a person who had "died" once, he did not cheer like a child.
"Teacher, why did you transform this dungeon into this? The undead don't need air or water, right?"
Harvey did not ask Amberxiu whether the transformation was for himself as a living person, because he knew very well that if he just needed water, Amberxiu would let him dig a well himself instead of spending so much gold to create a clear spring for him.
Amber explained: "Because I want to transform this place into an alchemy factory, ventilation and clean water are necessary."
"Alchemy factory?"
"Well, I need to make money, not just a few tens of thousands of gold coins from the casino, but hundreds of millions of gold coins. The destruction of the Alchemy City has affected the alchemy products of the entire continent. Although everyone now believes that alchemy will bring destruction, they cannot do without alchemy potions, and soon these things will be in short supply. This is an opportunity to make a fortune."
It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality. Alchemy has long been inseparable from this world. Now, the destruction of the Alchemy City has wiped out most of the high-level alchemists, and the rest have become street rats. It is estimated that no one can have an entire underground city like Amberxiu to transform into an alchemy factory.
So making money is certain, but Amberxiu has another thing to say.
He wanted to revive alchemy so that his teacher could regain some of his power.
Now that more and more gods are involved, the future will become more chaotic. The only real trump card that Amber Xiu can play is this unreliable teacher.
However, the God of Alchemy has now become a weaker divine power, and I’m afraid that he won’t even be able to block the sword for him when the time comes.
Amberxiu had no choice but to find a way to make alchemy once again the irreplaceable absolute productive force.
This is not an easy task, but Amber already has some ideas.
But to realize this plan, you first need to build your own alchemy factory.
Amberxiu needs manpower, not the low-level undead that constantly emit dark aura and corrode all matter. These undead can only make potions needed for necromancy, and it is impossible to make potions for living people.
Even if the undead try to farm, they can only produce a pile of rotten garbage.
And now, there are only three people available.
The two brothers, Hastings and Hares, and then Harvey.
It’s enough for now, because no technical work is required for now.
Amber took out a roll of drawings and handed it to Harvey.
"This is the most advanced alchemy factory design found in the Alchemy City database. Read it carefully and modify it according to the city. I don't ask you to fully understand it, but at least re-plan each area for me."
Harvey took it and looked at it, only to see various characters densely written on it, as well as dazzling lines. He had never seen such a complicated thing in his life.
"Teacher, I have never been exposed to alchemy." Harvey said a little embarrassedly.
Amber said: "Use your brain. You are a wizard who relies on intelligence to make a living, and you are also a wizard of the prophecy school. Trust your intuition, and you will understand it after some time. When I was learning alchemy, I didn't even know how to read, but I still learned it."
Thinking back to when I first traveled through time, Amber was much more miserable than Harvey. How could he have such good conditions?
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"So what are you going to do, teacher?" Harvey asked.
Amber replied, "Of course we went to purchase them. Can we make all those alchemical equipment by hand? It would take several years to build a magic element refining furnace alone. Of course we bought them."
Harvey thought that the so-called buying it back probably didn't mean buying it without paying.
When it comes to money, his teacher can do anything.
"Keep an eye on the house. Hastings and Hares are two brothers who like to slack off. Keep a close eye on them."
After giving this order, Amber Xiu changed into the appearance of a black-haired boy and flew out of his dungeon.
Harvey could only look helplessly at the drawing in his hand, trying to understand what was written on it.
Amberxiu left the dungeon, but did not walk towards the ground. Instead, he turned a corner, passed through the narrow underground passage, and came to another dungeon.
As they approached the towering city gate, the eyes of the two gargoyles in the corner lit up red, and the huge stone statues spread their wings, revealing their fangs and claws at Amberxiu.
Then a pale dwarf emerged from the shadows.
"Young man, this is not the place for you to come, but you got lost at the right time. It has been a long time since I tasted the blood of young people. Let me..."
Before the dwarf vampire could finish his words, a red light fell on him and froze him in place.
A few minutes later Herky Stone appeared at the door.
His body was still that square, and his feet were still suspended in the air, and he appeared half a head taller than Amberxiu.
"Haha, my old friend, why did you come to see me suddenly without telling me in advance?" Heki Stone waved his hand and lifted the immobilization spell for his men.
The vampire, who had little eyesight, quickly hid in the shadows, not daring to look at Amber again.
"This subordinate is quite rude. He hurt my self-esteem, old friend." Amber Xiu said very seriously.
With no outsiders around, Herky Stone put away his smile and said to Amber Xiu coldly: "Is your self-esteem like straw paper? It will be broken if touched! Well, there are no outsiders here, stop pretending, why are you looking for me?!"
"Okay, since you don't want to be polite with me, I won't waste time talking to you. I want to order a batch of professional alchemy equipment. Do you have any connections?" Amber asked.
Herky Stone said doubtfully, "Professional alchemical equipment? How professional?"
"Here's the list." Amber handed a long piece of parchment to Herky Stone.
After reading them, Herky Stone shook his head and said, "My friend, these things of yours are too rare. I can only find half of them for you at most, and the price will be very high."
Amber Xiu said disdainfully: "I am a lich, not a vampire. Are you kidding me? The Alchemy City is gone, and many alchemy factories have gone bankrupt. There should be a lot of these alchemy equipment waiting to be sold. You told me they are expensive?"
Hecky Stone showed an unwilling expression. This lich was more cunning than a vampire. It was not easy to cheat him.
Heki Stone had no choice but to say, "I'll give you 70% of the market price, but I don't have the magic element refining furnace. You should know that this thing can't be moved. It needs professional manpower to dismantle it. Those bankrupt factories don't have the money to dismantle it. Most of them are left there until the furnace body is damaged and directly scrapped."
Amber Xiu laughed and said, "70%. I won't take it if it's higher than 50%. As for the refining furnace, I'll figure it out myself."
Hecky Stone's face became even uglier. This lich was almost bargaining down to his bottom price. He would make no profit at all if he continued like this.
Just as he was about to refuse, Amber Xiu said, "I am going to build a new alchemy city. When the time comes, I will give you priority in sales channels. How about that?"
