Witcher: I Can Extract Everything - Chapter 252
Chapter 252: Experiment
Three days later, Zachary delivered the deed and other documents as promised. He was accompanied by several strong men, who were all his long-term workers.
Zachary had planned to bring them to help Heath repair the roof and renovate the whole house. Although Heath had said that day that he would take care of it himself, Zachary thought that he was dreaming.
But as soon as he entered the door, Zachary was dumbfounded.
The roof, the floor, the windowsill, everything had been completely renovated. There was no longer the slightest bit of dilapidation from before.
‘Does this guy know magic?’
The result before his eyes made Zachary very unhappy.
He was fully aware of the difficulty of renovating this dilapidated lighthouse. He had originally planned to make a large sum of money on this, and even did not ask for a sky-high price in terms of the land deed for this.
Heath’s house, which he had planned to renovate, had hit a wall. When he finally hired him, he asked for a lot of money, but he did not expect that Heath would be able to repair the entire lighthouse without a word. All his efforts had gone up in smoke.
In order to ensure that this business would always fall into his hands, he had communicated with his peers for a long time.
“Forgive me for being presumptuous, but you… What do you do, Sir Heath?”
Before leaving, Zachary asked.
Heath pointed to the newly placed books on the cabinet next to him and said, “Scholar.”
“Oh! Then your knowledge must be very profound.”
After giving a simple compliment, Zachary left with his people.
After sending Zachary off, Heath went straight into the lighthouse’s laboratory. The lighthouse had been completely tidied up by him. The meditation room, laboratory, library, and so on had all been moved to this side. The small house was left alone to live in.
Coming to the experimental table, Heath took out items from his spatial pocket and prepared to start an experiment.
The first thing he took out were large stones with diameters between 30 to 50 centimeters. The color was grayish-black.
These were volcanic rocks from Mount Doom.
Mount Doom was a super-large volcano in the southeast of the Old Earth Continent. Like the Dark Forest, it was also a famous and dangerous place in the Wizard World.
It was said that Mount Doom would erupt once every once in a while, and these rocks were evolved from the magma when the volcano erupted.
Mount Doom itself had a very high content of elements, so the rocks that erupted from the volcano were also rich in elemental conductivity. In addition, its material was very hard, so it was used by Wizards as alchemy materials for a long time. It was one of the most outstanding alchemy materials in the Wizard World.
Yes, the experiment that Heath was about to conduct was related to alchemy.
Alchemy puppet.
Ever since he saw that tall and strong alchemy puppet in the Twilight Ruins, Heath had been very interested in this kind of alchemy product. He thought that when he had the materials, he would definitely make some himself.
Therefore, when he saw Mount Doom rocks at the Magic Tree Airport, he bought them without thinking.
“Nina! Nina, are you there?” Turning the ring, Heath called out softly.
Gray-black smoke came out from the ring and soon turned into a beautiful figure in the air. She had a red skirt and long white legs. Who else could it be but Nina?
Nina stretched lazily and yawned. “What’s the matter, Heath? You just disturbed a lady’s dream.”
Heath asked, “How’s your enchantment?”
The first step in making an alchemy puppet was to draw and enchant runes on each volcanic rock. This was a huge task, and each rock required tens of thousands of runes to be drawn, it would take a lot of time if one were to rely on oneself.
“Enchantment?”
Nina glanced at the volcanic rock on the experimental table and quickly guessed Heath’s purpose. “An alchemy puppet? Was it inspired by those big guys in the Twilight Ruins?”
Heath laughed. “Has anyone ever praised you for being very smart?”
Nina teased, “They never stopped when I was alive.”
Heath nodded. “Then, thank you for your help.”
Nina complained, “Seriously, can’t you find two Apprentices? It’s not easy to accumulate some soul power, yet you still want to capture me to do manual labor.”
Heath said, “Apprentices? Wait until I meet a suitable one. As for your soul power? How much soul power does this little bit of enchanting energy consume? I’ll make it up for you later.”
“It’s a deal!”
“It’s a deal.”
After convincing Nina, the two of them began to work.
The enchantment pen and the enchantment carving knife left lines and marks on the volcanic rock. With a series of soft cracking sounds, they left runes one after another.
Enchantment was not a difficult task. The level of knowledge and difficulties involved were basically completely mastered during the Apprentice period. They were all very basic knowledge.
The biggest difficulty was that the workload was relatively large. If Heath had done it alone, it would have taken him at least a week. But now, with Nina’s help, he had saved a lot of time.
What surprised Heath even more was that Nina’s grasp of the basic knowledge was very solid. The speed of enchanting was almost on par with Heath, and even slightly faster.
Out of curiosity, Heath could not help but ask, “Did you often do this?”
Nina nodded and said with a little pride, “Of course. My mentor is an alchemy maniac. To be his Apprentice, these are just basic skills. There are not many people in the academy who are better at enchantment than me…”
At this point, she seemed to have thought of something and glanced at Heath from the corner of her eyes.
She pouted and said, “By the way, you’re the one who’s crazy. Where did you learn enchantment? Did a crazy Wizard torture you too?”
The more Nina spent time with Heath, the more she found him unbelievable.
He had become an official Wizard at such a young age. He had even mastered rule spells and learned a lot of spells. Now, he could even learn enchantment at will.
A Wizard’s time was limited. Where did this guy get the energy and time to learn so much?
Heath said casually, “More or less.”
Although there was no old monster behind Heath to supervise his growth, there was also a Wizard who constantly urged him. That Wizard was himself, his own obsession and interest in magic.
His obsession and interest in magic made him full of curiosity about any magic knowledge. For him, learning magic and understanding this knowledge was a kind of enjoyment and joy.
And this was also the main reason why he was able to keep moving forward.
The system’s extraction naturally brought him a shortcut to quickly grasp knowledge, and it allowed him to quickly integrate this knowledge, allowing him to continuously grasp new things, but it was mainly his own interest in magic.
His obsession with magic.
