Chapter 41: The Value of Magical Apprentices (Part 2)

Salin didn't ask anything more, but thought to himself that if the war had happened in Galoran, there would be nothing he had done. If there was trouble in Kushui County, he could not leave.

I hope it's okay. Salin prayed in his heart, for the first time, he was so concerned about whether the world was peaceful.

When we walked through the garden, there was a row of buildings, all of which were built of granite, with a rough and fierce atmosphere. There were pillars in front of the door, and two fully armed soldiers stood. Seeing Narnia and Salin, the two soldiers bowed and bowed.

"Master, you are here."

The soldiers standing guard obviously knew Nania, and at the same time smiled at Salin. Salin paid attention to the equipment of these two soldiers not much different from those of the elite soldiers of Baron Cook. At most, they were high-level swordsmen, and they were not as good as swordsmen. But these two soldiers were obviously more confident and concise. When they saluted, they only had respect in their eyes, but no humility.

The elite of Qin Yin Empire should not be underestimated. If there are thirty or fifty soldiers like this, the first-level mage will definitely be cut into meat sauce. If it is enchanted by armor, the second-level mage must be careful. In contrast, Skochenya's noble private soldiers are not very good, and they are not as strong as the mercenaries of large mercenaries.

I heard that Princess Rex can have 10,000 elite troops and get ownership of the surrounding cities. Once a war occurs, it is not a problem to recruit more than 100,000 auxiliary troops. With the mages and apprentices of Kushui County, the city should not be in danger. Thinking of this, Salin felt at ease. He thought too much. If there were really an army that could reach the city, I am afraid that the entire Qinyin Empire would have been involved in the war.

This is impossible. The Qin Yin army under the control of Shengyan City has more than one million, and its branches are in multiple provinces. In addition to the private soldiers owned by the nobles in various places, the entire Qin Yin is like an iron barrel.

Nania led Salin into the gate, and there was a corridor inside the gate. The two of them went straight up the stairs to the second floor. A young mage came out. The entire mage had short golden hair and a magic mark on his white magic robe.

"Sister, you're here." The young mage, Pisalin, was older, but he was less than 20 years old.

"This is Master Salin, this is my brother, Kaderick."

"Master Salin, thank you so much." Kaderick was obviously relieved.

"You're welcome, Nanya and I are friends." Salin replied with a smile.

Kaderick brought Salin and the others into his room. The room was extremely strange. The bronze railing in the middle surrounded a hole of dozens of square meters on the floor. Below was the first floor. In the larger room, dozens of alchemy test benches were arranged in an orderly manner, hundreds of magic apprentices were busy processing some metal pieces.

Salin recognized that the metal sheets were the materials of fish scale armor. The apprentices were using alchemy equipment on the alchemy test bench to process the armor sheets. The green and faint armor sheets burned on the magic flames, and beautiful patterns appeared.

On the other side, there are long alchemy platforms, and more apprentices are dealing with the tendons of the monster.

Warcraft tendons are very useful, and the most common one is to make bowstrings. The tendons of ordinary beasts need to be boiled and weaved for a long time to make bowstrings. The bowstrings of a bow can last for three years are considered to be of good quality. The tendons of warcraft are tougher and wear-resistant, and will not cause fatigue, breakage, and will not become brittle due to dryness and lack of water.

The apprentices downstairs split the monster tendons into thin filaments, but they were used to string armor leaves.

In addition to the ancient knight plate armor, most warriors' armor needs to connect the armor leaves together and use various ropes. The inferior armor will be connected in series with hemp rope soaked in glue. Although it is wear-resistant, it cannot withstand too strong power. When the sword energy invades, it will easily fade and break.

Advanced metal armor can be woven into tougher ropes with hair, wire, leather strips, etc.. The most expensive one is among them.

On another corner, Salin saw an apprentice enchanting the ancient brocade robe.

The Qin Empire was rich, even civilians had the right to wear brocade, silk and satin, and only slaves who had lost their freedom had the right to wear. However, ancient brocade was the right to wear for nobles and soldiers. This brocade felt heavy and bright in color, and was suitable for dresses. These ancient brocade robes processed by apprentices were weaving with magic silk, and the apprentices were processing the second time.

There are also test benches in the room on the second floor, but these test benches are much smaller and do not have the complex alchemy machinery downstairs.

More than twenty magic apprentices saw Salin and Nania coming in and stood up to salute. The apprentices were frowning, and there were a whole set of machinery, crystal tubes, beakers, brackets, crucibles, etc. on the test bench, which was more like a more orthodox alchemy equipment.

On the other side of the circular room is the room belonging to Kaderick. When you walk into the room, there is an alchemy test bench.

"Kadrick, are these armors worn by the generals?" Salin felt a little incredible when he saw such a huge alchemy laboratory.

"No, the princess's swordsman camp has 10,000 people. Everyone has two sets of armor and some spare gear. The officers wear it, not what I, as a little wizard, can be responsible."

Twenty thousand sets of armor of this texture!

Salin was too lazy to forget it, but in short, it was a huge expense. Although this was the power of the princess, can the emperor rest assured with such an elite army? You must know that if there were no prince, the princess would be able to inherit the throne and become the queen.

Princess Rex's actions were definitely not for military parade, but for preparing for war.

"Kaka, you're in a hurry to call me, what's the trouble?" Nanya spoke.

Kaderick looked at Salin and said, "There are more than two thousand sets of armored horn belts. It's almost done, but the repair water is not enough. The mages are not here, I am..."

Salin smiled and said, "It's okay, how much repair water needs to be made?"

It is too easy for Salin to make repaired water now. After becoming a second-level mage, Salin can create 48 parts of repaired water in a row, each part with 2,000 grams. Not to mention drinking, these repaired waters are enough for bathing.

"It takes a lot. The three of us make it continuously, and it may take a day to do it."

"So many?" Salin thought. Nanya was already a level 3 magician. Although she was still far from advancing, it didn't take much skill to create water for repair. The amount she could make should be similar to her own.

"There is no way, these corner belts were etched with magic. They need to be rinsed continuously with repair water, and soaked is useless. If you don't deal with it quickly, these corner belts will be useless."

Salin is not familiar with alchemy and can also know that these horn belts are magical equipment, and the etched patterns must also have magical attributes.

"No problem, prepare the container." Salin didn't want to be shocked, so he simply treated it as an exercise. Otherwise, if he had done his best, he would be able to create enough weight in just one day if he worked hard with Nania.

Metal flat-mouthed pots were carried in. These flat-mouthed pots were not small in size, with shallow holes on the base, and the surface of the metal pots was covered with magic patterns.

Salin estimated the number of manufacturing of normal mages. After casting the first-level magic of Repair Water 12 consecutive times, he stopped. This is equivalent to the number of 24 repair waters created by normal level 2 magicians.

Nanya kept making more than 90 parts of repair water in succession. Kaderick was overjoyed. The restoration water created by his sister and this second-level mage was much more than expected, so that he would be confident in completing the task.

He quickly took out the magic core and stuffed it into Salin and Nanya's hands, allowing the two to recover the magic strings. Salin's magic strings only consumed a quarter, but he did not refuse Kaderick's kindness. Anyway, the princess paid the money.

The flat-mouthed metal pots were carried out and placed in the alchemy machine, pouring and fixing. The repair water passed through the crystal tube at a constant speed, dispersing into dozens of torrents in a glass bubble, washing the corner belts inside the glass bubble.

The corners are black. After washing, the original blue-brown color appears, revealing the etched magic pattern. The repair water gathers from the other end of the glass bubble and flows out. It is already a pitch-black color and cannot be used anymore.

Salin quickly recovered the lost magic strings, a little bored. He thought it was a heavy work, but he didn't expect that he would just use a few first-level magic. Looking out from the window, the apprentices were busy dealing with the clean horn belts.

Every apprentice is so young and serious. It seems that there is nothing embarrassing to do such things. Apprentices who can operate alchemy machinery are at least level 6 magic apprentices, and none of these apprentices are over twenty years old. It is only a matter of time before they become formal magicians.

Salin sighed. Skochenya's number of magicians is not very small, but there are definitely no apprentices with such a huge base. Magical apprentices may not make much sense on the battlefield, but the magicians will not do the work in front of them, and can only rely on apprentices to complete them.

With a large number of apprentices, you can create enchanted armor on a large scale. After the most basic alchemy program is over, the magician only needs to inspire the magic array and input magic power to set the entire set of magic armor.

No matter how low-level it is, it is magic armor, which can withstand the sword energy of the sword master. It can even withstand some low-level magic, such as acid sputtering, ice cone technique, first-level fireballs, etc.

Ten thousand sets of such armor can definitely form a torrent of steel when worn by swordsmen. Even those loosely structured mercenaries cannot resist, let alone the nobles' private soldiers.

Salin finally understood what Qin was because of the magic empire. Although the situation in Kushui County was a bit special, the nobles of the empire could hire a large number of apprentices to do this as long as the emperor allowed them.

Among the 100 apprentices, one can become a formal magician. Every apprentice in this alchemy factory has the potential to become a magician. It can be said that they are all elites among apprentices.

Only Princess Rex's method can attract countless elite apprentices to settle in Kushui County. Everyone has a chance. What a temptation for magic apprentices! If there was such a place in Ceylon City, Salin would have been willing to work for the princess even if he sold himself.

Work is to practice, and the princess is responsible for all the consumption. Such a good thing has never happened anywhere else on the mainland.

Princess Rex's efforts are worth it. If she is given another ten years, she will have more mages, great magicians, and magicians.
