Chapter 194 Fantasy Alchemy
Flying Stone technology is a brand new technology for Purficott that she has never been exposed to before.
This lack of contact is not only due to the flying stone technology itself, but also because its production principle has never been understood by Perfectcott.
For example, when you used to make alchemy potions, you used water or oil as the solvent, but suddenly one day you got a formula that told you to use brass as the base, and you would be like a monk. It's like I can't figure it out.
In Purficott's view, the same goes for the flying stone, because it is a fantasy element.
The so-called fantasy elements are a concept gradually proposed by alchemists after the Industrial Revolution, specifically referring to substances or elements that do not exist at all in the real world.
Perhaps you would say that the things created by alchemists did not exist in this world before? Why not call those things fantasy elements?
The reason is very simple. The things created by the alchemists also have a basis in reality and comply with the laws of real physics.
For example, alloys with special properties. The alloy itself is something that has never appeared before, but the materials that make up the alloy exist in the real world. The alchemist just combined two unrelated materials. Together.
But the fantasy element is different. It does not exist in reality, but only exists in fantasy.
For example, Flying Stone is a imaginary material that can make steel "lighter" than air and then float.
In the real world, there is no material that can meet this condition, and it is impossible to produce it.
Before the Industrial Revolution, alchemists actually had no clear idea of what they could make and what they could not make. Most alchemists in the classical era were even more inventive when making inventions. Most of it is an imagination full of romance.
Because of this, most of the topics studied by alchemists in the classical alchemy era were fantasies and had no possibility of realization.
With the development of the industrial revolution and the rise of modern natural sciences, people have gradually realized the nature of the world and begun to summarize and organize the objective laws related to the world to explain the operating logic of the world. .
Therefore, alchemy also has a distinction between realism and utopianism.
Among them, realist alchemists pay more attention to reality. They no longer pursue goals and topics that may seem beautiful but are actually unrealistic, but instead stay closer to reality and life.
As a result, alchemy developed vigorously after the Industrial Revolution, and also provided great assistance to industrial production and technological development.
The utopian alchemists have gradually come to understand the reality, and most people have given up their unrealistic fantasies and turned to the side of realism.
But, is it true that the utopian alchemy project cannot be realized?
If it couldn't be realized, why would the jade record record the manufacturing technology of such a fantasy element as the flying stone?
Perficott read the information provided by Cuiyulu with these questions in mind, and suddenly realized that there is indeed something that can break the boundary between fantasy and reality, so that fantasy elements are no longer fantasy, but can be created. Come out of reality.
The answer is actually obvious. This thing is the Philosopher's Stone that makes the impossible possible and can replace all materials in alchemy.
"Philosopher's Stone embedded with the Philosopher's Stone" "Material: Legend"
"Production process: Excellent"
"Effect: Used in alchemical rituals, it improves the ritual effect by 120% and increases the success rate by 40%. It can ignore the principle of equivalent exchange and replace any alchemical ritual materials or media."< br>
“Evaluation: With the Philosopher’s Stone, you can be a master of alchemy even though you are a pig.”
This is the Midas Philosopher’s Rod in Perficott’s hand, with a fire inlaid on it. Red Philosopher's Stone.
Although it is only one part of the Philosopher's Stone that was split in half, its ability to ignore the principle of equivalent exchange and replace any alchemy ritual material or medium is real.
And with this, Purficott can use the power of the Philosopher's Stone to transform non-existent fantasy elements into reality.
This made Purficott couldn't help but sigh: "It is indeed a philosopher's egg born from a miracle. The red liquid, which means a miracle, does have incredible power."
Clear For Purficott, this means that a door to a new world has opened in front of her. The once utopian alchemy is about to become a technology that can be transformed into reality in the hands of Purficott.
"If I announce this, I'm afraid all the alchemists around the world will go crazy, right?" Purficott scratched his forehead with the Midas rod, unsure of how much impact this news would have. Shocking.
After all, although there were countless legends about the Philosopher's Stone in the past, and many well-known alchemists in history claimed that they had successfully created the Philosopher's Stone, in this era, except for Perficott There is no confirmed news of the existence of the Philosopher's Stone except for the piece on the hand that was split in half.
Most of the alchemists in history who claimed to have the Philosopher's Stone were unable to do one thing, and that was immortality.
One of the two most notable abilities of the Philosopher's Stone is that it can be used to make elixirs that allow people to gain immortality.
How could you create the Philosopher's Stone when you can't even live forever.jpg
It was precisely because of this that when Purficott claimed that he had completed his parents' research When the project successfully created the Philosopher's Stone, most people scorned it and even thought she was just trying to impress others.
It wasn’t until she really proved that she really had the Philosopher’s Stone under the witness of the investigators sent by the Alchemist Association and the Noble Council that the matter was finally concluded, and she was successful because of it. Obtained the titles and titles of Royal Chartered Alchemist and Master of Alchemy.
But what exactly the Philosopher's Stone can do is unknown to everyone.
Even Perficott, who owns the Philosopher's Stone, has only used it as a universal ritual plug-in in the past few years, and still only applies it to real-life alchemy. Technically, it has not been used to break the boundary between fantasy and reality.
And now, when Purficott realized that the Philosopher's Stone could break the boundary between fantasy and reality, she suddenly discovered that she could actually do more things.
Not only that, if he could make good use of this, Perficott felt that he might be able to attract more alchemists to the north, and even create a new alchemy school and become the founder of the sect.
After all, if you can turn your dreams into reality, there are so many things that can be done.
