"Teacher, did you just say that the skeleton can be controlled by magic?" Richard said with a little overjoyed.
Celes nodded calmly, "Yes, even though controlling the skeleton is just a trick, it can be a good exercise for your mental micro-manipulation ability, which will be very helpful for the alchemical experiment you are going to conduct next!
Moreover, this trick is also the prerequisite course content for many zero-level witchcrafts, so learning this trick can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
After you go back this time, you can slowly start learning!"
"Teacher Coco, I should have learned this trick." Richard said in confusion.
"I haven't learned it yet. Eh! What did you just say? Learned it? That's great! But don't be anxious. I'm not just talking about getting started, but raising your control over the skeleton to a proficient level.
So, Richard, you still need a little more patience." When Celes heard that Richard had learned the trick to control the skeleton, he was a little surprised and praised Richard again, but he took it for granted that even if Richard could learn it, it would only be at the entry level.
"Teacher, my control level has reached a proficient level!" Richard said with a smile.
"What! Weren't you studying meditation before? When did you raise the level of control over the trick of controlling skeletons to such a high level?" Celes could no longer keep his composure, and an extremely surprised expression appeared on his face.
Richard was also stunned, because in his impression, this mentor Ceres, who always had a rigid expression, would actually show such a surprised expression. At least for Richard, it was the first time he saw it.
"Richard, there is a skeleton in the next room. Go get it and manipulate it for me to see!" Celes obviously still didn't quite believe it, thinking that Richard might have confused the two levels of superficial and skilled.
Finally, when Richard controlled the skeleton to run around the room, almost climbing walls and flying over eaves, Ceres finally believed that this new disciple, Richard, had really mastered the magic trick of controlling skeletons to a proficient level.
At this moment, the look that Celes gave Richard was as bright as a 220-volt incandescent lamp, which made Richard feel terrified.
"Richard, I originally thought that based on your wizard talent, even if you work harder, you only have about a 10% chance of becoming a formal wizard.
But now it seems that the probability has increased to more than 20%. Especially since your comprehension and mental micro-manipulation are very good.
Even if you cannot become a formal wizard, if you concentrate on alchemy, you will have a good chance of becoming a master alchemist.
Which area of alchemy do you want to learn? Currently, the alchemy field I am good at is mainly divided into two areas: one is alchemical bomb science, and the other is elementary pharmacy science. Richard, which one do you choose?"
Celes went from refusing just now to letting Richard choose!
It seems that no matter which dimension, the top student always has the right to choose.
"I want to choose alchemy and bomb science!" Richard said immediately.
"Hey, your choice is rare. Most students will choose elementary pharmacy as the starting point to master alchemy. After all, subsequent potion learning and so on all need elementary pharmacy as a foundation.
But if you choose to study alchemical bombs, it will be a completely different alchemical system. If you have an idea in the future, you can go the route of puppet alchemy."
Richard smiled and said nothing.
For Richard, combat effectiveness is his consistent goal. He firmly believes that only by constantly improving his combat effectiveness can he successfully kill monsters and protect himself in this dangerous world.
If it weren't for his extraordinary fighting ability, he would have been killed by the Shadow Hunter just like Stephana and the others last time.
Especially when he killed the Man-faced Demon Spider and witnessed the power of the explosion of ten Fire Dancing Stars mixed with Silver Moon Dust bombs, Richard knew that if he wanted to achieve that level of power by performing witchcraft, he might not be able to be promoted to a third-level wizard apprentice, and he might have to become a formal wizard.
In this case, it will take a long time!
In contrast, one way to improve combat effectiveness in a short period of time is to carry and use alchemical bombs on a daily basis!
But if you want to do this, the cost is too huge.
Richard has already figured out the selling prices of some commonly used alchemical products in the school's trading area.
For example, the Fire Dance Star is sold at 15 magic stones in the school trading area, while the Silver Moon Dust is a little cheaper, but it still costs 8 magic stones. So, the last explosion destroyed a total of 230 magic stones!
This number may not seem like much at first glance, but we have to consider that the unit of measurement is magic stones.
You should know that the annual income of an ordinary knight in the Kingdom of Heron is only a few hundred gold dinars. Assuming we take an average and calculate it at 300 gold dinars, it is only 23 magic stones when converted into magic stones.
And that explosion used up 230 magic stones! In other words, although the loud bang severely damaged the human-faced demon spider, it also destroyed the income of an ordinary knight for ten years!
Therefore, this also explains why senior students who have not yet been promoted to the second-level wizard apprentice for more than one year rarely use alchemical bombs when going out on missions.
Because we have to consider cost-effectiveness and sustainability. For example, Meiluo, as a first-level wizard apprentice, is now in her third and a half years at the Ignis School.
For her, the basic requirement for the semi-annual assessment is to obtain 30×3, or more than 90 points.
Imagine if every time you go to complete a mission, you have to use alchemical bombs to clear the way. The expense would be unaffordable unless you are a prince of the kingdom or the legitimate son of a duke!
Therefore, when going out on a mission, it would be best if the seniors could complete the mission without spending magic stones. Not only can they earn a small amount of magic stones, but they can also save them up slowly to buy equipment, pay for paid courses, or meet their own experimental needs.
But Richard had a different idea. He was thinking that if he could use the inspiration panel to quickly improve his experience in making related alchemical bombs, then the entire manufacturing cost would be quite low.
In addition to selling some alchemical bombs to obtain profits for purchasing raw materials, the remaining alchemical bombs can be used freely in battle.
Richard made a preliminary estimate. Although a bottle of Fire Dance Star would cost fifteen magic stones, if he could make it himself, the cost of purchasing the raw materials would only be seven or eight magic stones, nearly half the price.
"Richard, this crystal ball records the production videos of the two primary alchemical bombs I made, Silver Moon Dust and Fire Dance Star. You can learn from them first.
However, you need to pay a knowledge fee of twenty magic stones for this.
If you have any questions about the operation and use of the experimental equipment, you can ask the students in the alchemy room on the first floor. " After that, Celes handed Richard a crystal ball.
"Okay, mentor." Richard took the crystal ball and took out twenty magic stones from his arms and handed them to Celes.
Wizards charge a certain fee for imparting advanced knowledge to their disciples. Of course, compared to ordinary students, there are usually discounts for their own disciples, but they still charge fees to a certain extent.
Because a lot of knowledge is the conclusions that wizards obtained after thousands of experiments and investing a lot of energy.
There is also some knowledge that wizards finally obtain after experiencing life and death tests and adventures, so there is a fee for imparting knowledge. This is a reflection of the principle of equal exchange, and Richard does not feel uncomfortable with it.
