Volume 8: The Fourth Impact Chapter 40 This bag of Nine-turn Sentinel serum is extremely precious. Sir Mason must taste it first.
Almost ten days after his engineering reached Lv10, Mason's alchemy finally reached this level. Although he barely reached the full level by relying on the +2 increase in manufacturing skills granted by his Isu bloodline, baby, numbers don't lie.
This time the skill breakthrough was the same as the last time. The moment it reached Lv10, a large amount of information flooded into Mason's mind, but practice makes perfect. This time the influx of information did not cause Mason to lose control again.
With his head spinning, he carefully checked the "ultimate talent" unlocked by alchemy, hoping that it would give him a surprise:
Reach Alchemy Skill Level 10!
Skill information judgment passed, character trait [Luxury Alchemist] replaced with [Alchemy Grandmaster: All alchemy formulas mastered have a 50% shorter production time when made into physical objects, and the effects and duration of alchemy items made by oneself are greatly improved, and side effects are greatly reduced. 】
The final talent unlocked by the alchemy branch is [Supernatural Masterpiece: Grants the talent owner the ability to create 'Immortal Relic' level alchemical creations, and enhances the keen perception of alchemical knowledge, the speed of learning and mastering new formulas is increased, and the success rate of analyzing incomplete formulas is greatly increased. ]
"Hmm, this doesn't seem as powerful as the ultimate talent in engineering."
Mason made a small complaint, but it was also quite a Versailles boast. The fact that the manufacturing process had reached "immortality" was impressive enough.
This means that he has the hard power to break through the limits of technology.
The most interesting thing was that after Mason unlocked the ultimate talent of alchemy, the alchemist Mason in front of him suddenly screamed, staggered back while holding his chest, and threw away the crystals that he cherished as treasures in his hands, but they were caught by Mason's quick hands.
"What's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"
The subject asked, and Alchemist Mason squatted on the ground holding his head and yelled:
"Shut up! Leave me alone for a moment. I'm analyzing the incomplete formula of the elixir of immortality...Oh, damn! Why didn't I think of this thing being able to do this before?
What a wild and imaginative imagination! Quick! Give me a piece of paper, I want to write down the production process of the genuine Philosopher's Stone. I have figured it out!
Ah, the supreme secret of alchemy!
I understand! "
"You're begging as much as the engineer, right?"
The main body complained again and dissed Mason, the engineer who now locked himself in the workshop every day and tinkered with nothing. He took out a pen and paper and handed them to the trembling alchemist who was in a state of "inspiration burst" and asked him to write down the mysterious knowledge that was constantly surging in his mind.
Mason finally understood that each of his manufacturing industries would have such a wave of super "epiphany" when it reached the maximum level.
But this is not a bad thing. No matter in which world or which heritage, making the elixir of life is the highest achievement an alchemist can achieve.
Look, haven’t the Elric brothers also been struggling with the issue of the Philosopher’s Stone?
Seeing that alchemist Mason would not be able to recover in a short time, the main body left him here to go crazy alone. He first sent the older brother of the Elric brothers to the treatment cabin, and then sent the younger brother's head to the engineering workshop to replace him with a new body. Finally, he threw two housekeeping robots to clean up the messy laboratory before picking up the results of their recent explosion of a divine artifact mother cauldron.
Nine-transformation Sentinel Golden Pill... Ugh!
Concentrated Sentinel Serum Crystallization is the right one! It must always match the style of painting!
This thing is an irregular crystal, translucent like a cleaned gemstone ore, and has a frosted feel if you touch it carefully. It emits a dazzling luster, but if you look at it under the light, you can see blood-colored residues inside the crystal that are similar to blood vessels, which looks quite enchanting.
Considering that this thing is made by melting and crystallizing the remains of the sentinels, it is quite terrifying to think about what exactly is inside it.
Mason held it in his hand, and after a few seconds, the character card gave an information tag:
Golden Sentinel Serum Crystals
Quality: Legendary Engineering Creation, Immortal Craftsmanship [Rough operation leads to reduced quality]
Effect:
Can be used in alchemy to further manufacture raw materials, and must be processed with other materials before use.
warn!
When this item is used as a material, the quality of the finished product will not be lower than [Legend·Immortality], but if the craftsmanship is lacking, the finished product will have serious side effects.
hint!
This item is the remnant of a special and unique object. It can be restored to its original quality through certain techniques and craftsmanship.
hint!
[Golden Sentinel Serum Formula·Incomplete] has been included.
Producer: Mason Cooper
Item Description: I know what you are thinking, but it is not that easy to find a bug here. Why not cut it open and eat it like a primitive man? Let's bet that you will get the power of a million stars under extremely lucky circumstances like that poisonous insect?
"I would only eat this directly if I believed you. What a waste! This is the only one of its kind!"
Mason rolled his eyes at the description of today's items. He didn't care about the ridicule of this mysterious guy. Anyway, his plan had been achieved.
The original idea of the Mason Manufacturing Team was to let the main Mason use the ability of the character card to forcibly extract the Sentinel Serum formula. Although they only got an incomplete blueprint now, with his ultimate alchemy talent that he just unlocked, they are still able to eventually restore the production process of this ultimate alchemy weapon.
But soon, Mason realized what the teasing remark in the item description meant.
"This formula...why does it feel a bit strange?"
The subject Mason quickly wrote down the incomplete formula he had extracted, but after writing it down, he realized that something was wrong, and it was not because the formula was too complicated.
On the contrary it is a bit too simple.
At least it was too easy for Mason, who had just reached the maximum level of alchemy.
"Hey, stop being crazy, come over here and take a look!"
He frowned and called out to the mumbling alchemist Mason, who pushed his wizard hat forward, glanced at the formula Mason had written, and said with a curled lip:
"Isn't this the concentrated and enhanced formula of the Super Soldier Serum? If you want this, I can write several sets for you in a minute... It seems we have been fooled.
The bug-fixing approach won’t work.”
"That's not what I meant."
Mason leaned back in his chair, rubbed his brows and shook his head, saying:
"It was also clearly stated in the Sentinel's origin story that the potion he stole and drank was used to strengthen the Super Soldier Serum. The purpose of the experiment set by the thoughtless scientist was to achieve the effect of strengthening the Super Soldier Serum 10,000 times. It sounds like an unreliable project used to defraud funds.
It looks like a failure, but don't forget that this formula is extracted directly from the Golden Sentinel serum crystals on the character card! It can't be fake.
In other words, although this thing is incomplete, it is definitely a prerequisite for obtaining the power of the Sentinel. I think this thing is more like the solution we use in alchemy. Perhaps the potion made with this formula is a necessary additive to the Sentinel serum.
In short, you make it according to the recipe first, and then all you have to do is simulate the scene of the birth of the Sentinel.
How can we use this formula and the crystals in our hands to cause atomic displacement in the body of the user and open a door to the energy universe...
Or maybe we should call it the plane of nothingness."
"You mean, it needs to be improved?"
Alchemist Mason understood.
He looked at the incomplete formula in his hand and the serum crystals in front of him. After a few seconds of thinking, he said:
“Since the original plan has a zero chance of being replicated, why don’t we just throw it away? Instead of thinking about how to replicate an experiment with a success rate that is infinitely close to zero, why not combine the two things we have on hand?
What I mean is that we don't need to rely on that unreliable idea anymore.
Since this crystal contains the concentrated substance of the Golden Sentinel Serum, why not use it to assist in creating our own unique Golden Sentinel Serum in our own innovative way!
No!
Change the name to 'Golden Mason Serum'! It was impossible , but now it is absolutely possible, just like how Engineer Mason can help you restore the Universe's Main Power Armor when the X-metal is missing.
We are all clones, so there is no reason why he can do it and I can't, right?"
"I am absolutely confident in your ability, but I am not saying anything bad about you, but your naming ability is terrible."
Mason curled his lips and said:
"Let's call this new project 'Million Stars'. You will be in charge. Although we only have this one crystal, if we use it sparingly, we can do hundreds of experiments.
I don't ask for it to be effective for a long time, alchemist, but at least I hope it won't fail me in this last journey."
"I understand. Leave it to me."
Alchemist Mason, who felt like he had been reborn, was full of confidence. He put away the formula and the serum crystal in front of him and handed the recipe for the elixir of immortality and the philosopher's stone that he had just written to Mason.
He waved his hands in a rather Versailles way and said:
"The ultimate mystery of the Hogwarts world is no longer a mystery to us, and now you can also rub the genuine Philosopher's Stone without having to use that terrible pirated stuff.
As for the immortality elixir, it is indeed very powerful, but considering that we are still young, we don’t need to think about it.”
"This is not what we are after, Alchemist."
The subject read the two recipes and burned them. With the fire in his palms, he said to the alchemist Mason very seriously:
"Now it's time to start what we have been thinking about but have not been able to do before. Now that we can analyze the incomplete formula, I need you to immediately start making the super drugs we have come into contact with before.
But this is just for practice.
You and I are one, and I believe you know what I want you to make."
"Understand."
The alchemist squinted his eyes and whispered:
"The resurrection potion to save your little lover. It seems that you really gave a part of yourself to Ciri..."
"Don't talk about love...it's too heavy for her and me."
Mason covered his eyes and whispered:
“I just want her to survive now!
The swordsman's warning that night was correct. I broke into Ciri's life seventeen years late. I shouldn't have had such close contact with her, and I shouldn't have let her suffer from the torment of her soul and fate after she made up her mind.
I was doing something wrong.
But I don't regret it.
Now that I have encountered this, I can't give up so easily.
I don’t know what kind of relationship Xili and I will develop in the future, and we don’t have the energy to think about such distant things, but what I can be sure of is that I can’t let her die in my hands.
I can't let Mephisto win that easily.
When I first met him, the old bastard pointed out the most deadly card in his hand. He knew that as long as Ciri was alive, my chances of winning would be very low.
He wants to laugh at us, but I won't let him!
Not only will I defeat him, burn his ambition and send him into the devil's hell, but I will also free those who shouldn't have to endure all this from his reign of terror.
She has saved me many times, now it is my turn to save her."
“I can’t understand this kind of complicated feelings. After all, I am a single dog king who has devoted everything to the alchemy career and does not intend to waste any more time on romance in the future.
But I was really shocked.”
Alchemist Mason complained:
"Harley and Quinn will be sad if they see you being so affectionate with another woman."
"She is my patient and I am her doctor."
Mason looked up and said to Alchemist Mason:
"I will stay with my little cuties until the day I die or they stop loving me. This is my duty and the future I have chosen for myself.
By the way, do you think it would be too sudden for me to propose to Harley and Quinn if we survive this impact?"
"Harley will be so happy that she will go crazy again and burn her brain into paste with happiness, but Quinn will probably reject you. She said she is a non-marriageist."
The alchemist shrugged and said:
"But the boss is getting married, how can you, the brothers, not have a good time? I will go back and tell everyone about this news, and I will definitely make your wedding beautiful and grand.
You see, we can do this ourselves.
Ask the jeweler to make you a custom wedding ring, the tailor to make you a dress, the blacksmith to do some fancy work and cooperate with the engineer to help you get a motorhome, then ask the inscriber and the enchanter to paint the walls and make some festive decorations, the collector to get all kinds of good things from all over the world to entertain your friends and guests, and the first aid technician to be ready to deal with emergencies at any time.
It's a pity you didn't come up with Chef Mason, otherwise you could save even the chef."
"What about you?"
The main Mason grinned, lit a cigarette and chatted with his clone:
"What gift are you going to give me?"
"Is there any need to say that?"
The alchemist laughed and said:
"Of course, it's all kinds of aphrodisiacs, from oral to topical, for both men and women. The stuff we make is definitely good enough, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
"Be serious, you are an alchemist after all, a person of status, calm down."
The subject waved his hand and said:
"Go ahead and do your work. I won't bother you any more."
"Okay, I'll leave now."
Alchemist Mason opened the suitcase factory and prepared to jump in. At this moment, Mason blew out a smoke ring and said to him in the rising smoke:
"Ciri... I'll leave it to you."
"Um."
The alchemist didn't look back. He nodded and said seriously:
"Leave it to me."
"Click"
The suitcase factory closed down, and Mason walked out of the messy alchemy laboratory. The promise from alchemist Mason made him feel less stressed.
At this moment, having such a group of guys supporting him behind the scenes made Mason feel much more relaxed.
But the next moment, a shadow enveloped him from behind.
Mason turned around and saw the elusive Black Strange floating in the air behind him, looking at him with a dead look. Black Strange said in a cold voice:
"I should probably kill you right here, you unfaithful bastard."
ah!
Mason suddenly had a headache.
He knew that his conversation with the alchemist just now had been heard by Hei Qiyi. What a curse! The God of Pure Love could never stand to hear such scumbag talk.
Judging from Hei Qi's attitude, he seems to be serious. The current situation can be best described in one sentence:
Hey, let someone named Hei come and hunt you bastards who are unfaithful to love!
"I can explain."
Mason raised his hands helplessly, but the next moment Black Qiyi snorted, waved his hands and said:
"That's a dirty matter between you two. Don't tell it to pollute my ears! I'm here to warn you, Mason Cooper. I have sensed the ripples in the depths of several planes.
Certain cosmic forces are stirring.
Perhaps it is hoped that the Council has already begun to launch a third-party force to siege you, so that you can't focus on dealing with the impact.
New disruptions will happen before they hit, and you have to be prepared.”
"I'm prepared."
Mason raised his head and said to Hei Qiyi:
"Instead of passively taking a beating, it's better to disrupt the opponent. I've been thinking about this these days. The application of the Speed Force Cannon may play some unexpected roles.
If all goes well, hopefully the Council won't have time to cause us any trouble in the time before impact.
I intend to call this a move to divert trouble away."
