Chapter 169 Form Sculpt Question

Heat Blend Art is used on the Earth Demon Blood Copper to transform it into a pool of metallic solution with a black-red glow.

The next step is to build up the metal solution into the form he wants. After doing so, he can finally make the form fixed with the Condensation Art.

Just then, Angel froze.

“Construct a form, how do I construct one?”

Angel suddenly realized that he had only considered melting and setting the material. As for how to construct it, he was still ignorant about such things.

Angel recalls the words in the book. He remembers that in the it says, “After the material is melted, use magic power to Form Sculpt it before using the Condensation Art.”

Use magic power to Form Sculpt?

Angel tries to squeeze a small amount of magic power out of his magic source and release it into the metal solution.

As soon as the magic power enters the solution, it flows into the molten liquid but does not even cause a spray. Just like a river flowing into the ocean, it caused no waves.

For a while, Angel was stuck at this step. Three minutes later, the magic model began collapsing from the high temperature, which meant the Heat Blend Art had reached its limit.

There was no way forward. Angel can only undo the Heat Blend Art.

In the absence of support, the metal solution slides onto the floor and burns a series of black marks. An unpleasant smell began rising with a cloud of white smoke.

He opens the basement door to ventilate this a little.

Angel returns to the quiet room and opens up the Holographic Tablet to find out how Form Sculpting works.

Angel went through all the books in Sanders collection and the books recorded in the Nightmare Plane. It did not describe the steps in detail for Form Sculpting. It only says a Wizard should use magic power to Form Sculpt.

Angel was at a loss at what to do and was so frustrated that he even began to consider relying on moulds to Form Sculpt. But the mould also needs to be customized. Ah, does he have to go to a mortal blacksmith shop to find someone specialized in making moulds?

Angel thought about this and decided to ask David at Promi Alchemy Shop.

Putting back on the black “sheet,” Angel went out the door.

Recently, he has become more and more fond of wearing this “sheet” simply because they are so easy to wear. In the past, he had to wash and comb his hair properly in order to go out. But with the “bed sheet,” he pulls over his hood directly, and then his greasy and messy hair was all covered up.

Angel even suspects this is why every apprentice is given such a sheet, right?

Not far away, Angel now sees a lot more people in Apprentice Town than usual.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

At this time, most of the Wizard Apprentices who are used to staying at home, went out of their houses and wore good-looking clothes.

Angel put on his hood and walked with a low profile through the crowd.

A few minutes later, Angel arrived at Underground Market. Going left and turning right, he soon arrived at Promi Alchemy Shop. During this time, Promi Alchemy Shop’s door was wide open, and no one was lining up outside. But David was sitting at the doorsteps.

David’s goggles were pulled over his head to reveal his freckled little face. His expression was a little lonely, one hand was resting on the wooden stairs and another was on his cheek. Like a little boy who was unfamiliar with the way of the world and was full of confusion about how to proceed in the future.

“What’s the matter with you, thinking about life?” Angel walks up to David, who slowly lifts his head.

“Huah~” David sighed and said listlessly, “What are you doing here? Didn’t you go to the High Cloud Library?”

“High Cloud Library? What would I do there?” Angel leans against the railing at the edge of the stairs.

“Don’t you know it’s the release day of the Frost Moon Chronicle today?” As soon as David finished, he said to himself. “Oh yeah, I almost forgot you recently joined the Savage Grottoes… Not knowing about the Frost Moon Chronicle is normal, too.”

“Frost Moon Chronicle?” A set of books popped up in Angel’s mind. “You’re not talking about the Frost Moon Alliance’s , are you?”

“You know about it?” David looked at him with some surprise.

“I know that the is a chronicle published by the Frost Moon Alliance in every period. This chronicle documents all kinds of anecdotes about opening up some land in a plane by the Frost Moon Alliance. It was in its 16th issue before.” Angel paused. “You said it was the Frost Moon Chronicle issue date today. Then it is the 17th issue of the today, right?”

David nodded: “Yes, everyone from the Frost Moon Alliance has arrived. You see, there are a lot fewer people in the whole Underground Market, all of them want to view the Frost Moon Chronicle.”

“The century-old journal is really worth reading.” At this point, Angel wants to buy one, but he doesn’t know if there is a little bit more description of the Nightmare Plane in this new issue. In each of the previous issues, Angel has seen the Frost Moon Alliance having no progress related to the Nightmare Plane except for the 14th issue which has included the Nightmare Plane as a desolate land target.

“Where is the issue? I’ll buy it later!” Asked Angel.

David glanced at Angel. “Are you sure you want to buy it? The Frost Moon Alliance’s chronicle has never been priced below 100 magic crystals.”

“Then why are they…?” Angel looked around at the empty market.

“You can’t buy it, but you can rent it! In the High Cloud Library, the chronicle can be rented in the hands of formal Wizard. If you have a good relationship with your mentor, they may be willing to show it to you for free.” When David said this, at this point, his face was even more lonely.

“So that’s the case.” Angel thought, should I go to Sanders and see if I can get a windfall in a few days?

“But what does that have to do with sitting here thinking about life?” Angel asked again.

David shrugged. “Because I envy you, I don’t even have a mentor.”

Angel froze. “You didn’t get Mentor Flier Invitation Card? I remember people who didn’t receive a Mentor Flier Invitation Card would randomly be assigned to a mentor?”

“I received a Mentor Flier Invitation Card.” David paused before saying the second sentence: “But unfortunately, my mentor is dead. My mentor died on the road during reclamation of a desolate land.”

Hearing this, Angel’s expression froze. No wonder David is sitting here with a lonely face.

The scene was a little silent. Angel was wondering if he should say something to comfort him, but David suddenly laughed and said. “But now I can get a little bit of advice from Master Promi. I’m more comfortable than before when I used to face my mentor with trepidation.”

“By the way, you haven’t answered me yet. What are you doing here?” David’s eyes squinted: “I don’t think you are an alchemy inscription talent. Would you like returning the materials?”

Before Angel returned the materials, David had shown an “I knew it” expression and patted his chest: “It’s okay. I knew it would be like this. So, I haven’t accounted for the materials you bought. You just give it back to me! Shall I invite some people to come over to your place and pick it up?”

“Why don’t you talk? What happened to you? Would you like someone to move the materials or not?”

Angel looked funnily at David’s self-talk and waited for him to stop before saying, “No, I’m not here today to return the materials.”

David frowned and asked suspiciously, “Are you sure you didn’t come for a refund?”

Angel said angrily, “Of course not! I came here today to ask you a question.”

“You came to consult with me?” David’s expression is subtle, a little overjoyed and a little superior. David coughed twice and changed his expression to that of a kind ancestor when they give pointers to their descendants: “Young people, if you don’t understand, ask away. This is a good habit. Now that you’re crying and begging for me, I’ll take you with me on a journey.”

Angel: “…” When did I cry and beg for you? Hey, don’t make up the situation in your mind!

“Ask away young man.” David looked at Angel with a big smile and unparalleled love and kindness in his eyes.

Angel took a deep breath, resisted the urge to turn around and leave, and asked David. “I just want to know, after using the Heat Blend Art to turn the material into a solution. What happens next, do I Form Sculpt?”

After David heard Angel’s words, his expression froze. “What are you talking about? You’ve already learned the Heat Blend Art?”

Angel repeats his earlier words: “It’s recorded in the book that magic power is used to Form Sculpt. But I have put magic power in the solution, and nothing has changed. That’s why I wanted to come and ask you.”

The expression on David’s face is the same as a stained plate, green suffocation, red shame, yellow anger and black grief.

After a while, David said in an aggrieved tone, “Did you really learn the Heat Blend Art? How could you possibly learn the Heat Blend Art in less than half a month?”

“Err.” Angel looked at David’s little grieving expression and had come up with his answer to the far-reaching question of learning Heat Blend Art… He carefully considered his wording: “Maybe my talent is better?”

David was devastated and collapsed on the stairs with a loveless expression. “Why can’t I die as a salted fish?!”

David recalls his experience of learning the Heat Blend Art. With the guidance of Master Promi, it took him a full year to release the Heat Blend Art smoothly. And the alchemy inscription’s level 1 magic, Melting Art. He has not even been learned yet, not even the fur was touched.

Angel only spent half a month on this. The world is so unfair!

“I think I may be ill today. I want to go back to bed and sleep.” David got up and walked stiffly into the store.

“Wait a minute!” Cried Angel.

David turned his head, his expression aggrieved and his mouth pouting.

“Hey, how do you use the Heat Blend Art magic power to Form Sculpt?”

David was silent for a long while. His expression was tangled, and his heart was struggling. Should he tell Angel? The devil David and the angel David argued in his mind, and jealousy and friendship confronted each other.

After a while, David sighed and said, “Alright, I’ll tell you.”

“The ‘magic power’ required to Form Sculpt in the book is not the magic power you think it is. They magic power is from level 0 magic.” David said this and waved Angel away. “I told you the answer… let me cry in peace… I mean it’s time to rest and sleep.”

“Thank you.” Angel’s sincerely thanks, David.

David settled down and pouted, “Anyway, all you have to do is ask people who have alchemy experience, and they’ll know it.”

“But I don’t know anyone else who knows alchemy.” Angel laughed and said, “I really owe you this time, otherwise I don’t know how long I’d struggle with this.”

David calmly said: “Don’t thank me. Your alchemy talent should be very good. If you can go farther on the path of alchemy, I hope you can give me a hand in the future.”

Angel’s eyes narrowed like crescent moons as he gave him a smile: “No problem.”
