Genshin Impact: Reincarnation as a Hilichurl

I spent the whole morning reading in the library after a long time. For lunch, I ordered Lisa her favorite manor toasted muffins and satisfying salad, which gave her a little shock.

In the afternoon, Wang Chen came to Albedo's laboratory as promised. After knocking on the door and getting a "come in" response, he saw Albedo frowning as he entered, thinking hard about the "juicer" he had seen yesterday.

Sucrose is doing experiments nearby, and Klee is not here today.

"Now that you are here, go and purchase the materials according to this list." Albedo handed the prepared materials list to Wang Chen.

The above materials are not rare, but the demand is a bit large: Flame Flower Stamens*30, Ice Mist Flower*30, Stone Amber*15, Electric Crystal*15, Dandelion Seeds*90, Mushroom Beast Spores*60.

The market price of the stamens of the Flame Flower and the flowers of the Ice Mist Flower is 2000 Mora per flower, and the market price of the Amber and Electric Crystal is 3000 Mora per piece.

Not many people are selling dandelion seeds on the market, but you can go to the Angel Tavern to have a look. Last time I bought a thousand dandelions, the price was 300 Mora per flower. This time the quantity is not that large, so the price will probably go up.

The mushroom beast spores are completely imported goods shipped from Xumi, and the price has reached 3000 Mora.

Wang Chen calculated that the total cost was nearly 500,000 Mora. Although he could afford it, he still asked, "Do you need so many materials?"

"It's a trial and error process, and it's not certain whether it will work." Albedo glanced at him with a faint smile on his face. "I've already spent all my money this month, so you can only rely on yourself."

"If you can't afford it, you can cut the purchase amount in half. However, if you succeed but the materials you prepare are insufficient, the energy storage will be less, and the number of times you can use it will inevitably be less. It depends on your choice."

Wang Chen thought that a great alchemist like Albedo, who could bring a living person back to life by drawing a picture and bring a dead tree back to life by pinching a dry branch, would definitely succeed. However, he was told that he might not succeed and would have to invest more than 400,000 Mora.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly that alchemy was not something that ordinary people could master, it was too expensive.

"I'll go shopping now."

Albedo reminded Wang Chen from behind: "Report the name of the Knights and you'll get a 10% discount."

Wang Chen waved his hand.

After Wang Chen left, Albedo took out two bottles of azure blue liquid. He really couldn't think of any low-level materials with abundant water elements. This was the 'Heart of Pure Water' he got from killing two pure water elves in the morning.

If these materials are added, the research costs will rise sharply, but this experiment is also out of my own interest, so I won't charge him any fees.

…………

The purchase of other materials went smoothly, except for a minor incident when buying dandelion seeds: When Wang Chen entered the Angel's Gift, he ran into Diluk, who was on duty instead of Charles.

After some negotiations, Wang Chen got the dandelion seeds he wanted, but Diluk actually invited him to attend a banquet to be held at the Dawn Winery in the near future.

Wang Chen agreed after a little thought, then returned to the laboratory carrying a lot of bags.

The entire purchasing process took more than an hour.

Albedo took out the same amount of elemental content from the seven materials as a whole alchemical material, then took a magic crystal block and placed it on the synthesis table together with the materials.

Then he closed his eyes, made hand gestures, and began alchemy.

From Wang Chen's perspective, the seven materials on the synthesis table all disappeared at a certain moment, and then a strong flash of light appeared. Just when he was still confused, a huge explosion came from the synthesis table.

Wang Chen subconsciously wanted to dodge backwards, but the explosion mixed with ice, fire, and lightning-colored smoke was wrapped in a square rock element barrier, and the interior gradually returned to calm.

Sucrose, who was standing by, was also startled by the sound and hurriedly checked the materials in her experimental equipment. Finally, she found that it was made by Albedo.

"It is indeed dangerous."

Albedo cleaned up the ashes from the explosion, and the synthesis table was safe and sound, but the only material left on the table was the magic crystal block.

Wang Chen asked in confusion: "What happened?"

"In my expectation, the first step in making this prop should be to compress these materials, continue to use them as energy storage units but reduce their size, then fuse them into the magic crystal block that is friendly to elemental forces, and then shape the magic crystal block into a practical shape.

“However, the seven elemental forces have both mutual promotion and mutual restraint. If the distance is not well controlled, whether one element becomes an accelerant for another element, or the two elements conflict, it will be considered a failure.

"And once the two elements collide, it will inevitably trigger a chain reaction, and the final result is an explosion, a violent explosion."

"I have been controlling it very carefully, but I didn't expect it to explode..." Albedo thought with his hand on his chin, "Maybe the synthesis platform can't bear it? I have to try again."

He swiftly took another batch of alchemical materials and placed them on the synthesis table, but these materials once again turned into ashes in the strong light and explosion.

"It seems that using a synthesis table as a container is not appropriate. This is troublesome."

"The synthesis table can't bear it. Can we just change to a stronger alchemy container?" Wang Chen had some alchemy knowledge, but not much.

Albedo explained: "That's not the case. The synthesis table supports most alchemical recipes. Generally, the synthesis table is not used because the size or shape of the synthesis table is not suitable. Only in a few cases will the synthesis table be incompatible. Once this happens, it means that you will spend money."

"?"

"In this case, we have to try various containers and rituals. The possible combinations are endless. It's not too late to give up now." Albedo pointed at the remaining materials.

Hearing this, Wang Chen let out a deep breath. He was very happy at first when he heard about the diversity of alchemical combinations. People are both afraid of and like the unknown. Who would want all the results to be predetermined?

But now he was asked to develop a completely new alchemical formula out of his own pocket, and all he was left with was fear.

"Let's use up the materials we've already bought first. It's too early to give up now since we've already bought them."

"Then I won't hold back. I will first try using some commonly used containers and rituals. To ensure that it is not an operational error, I will conduct two experiments each time."

After saying that, Albedo took out a chalk-like pen and drew a hexagram in an empty corner of the laboratory. Wang Chen noticed that the ground there was a stone that was different from the wooden floor. It was probably used as a container for the talisman drawing ceremony.

Albedo placed a whole set of alchemical materials into the hexagram, and he muttered: "Earth, fire, water, and wind, follow my command, recreate the four elements, and reshape the five elements."

He was responded with a loud "bang".

He arranged the alchemical materials again and changed his words: "The Supreme Star, the response is endless, the Seven Extremes are in control, the Three Paths are created."

explosion.

Albedo took out a notebook and started writing and drawing. There were a bunch of professional terms and mysterious symbols. Wang Chen took a look and didn't understand anything.

After writing the failure analysis, Albedo took out a heavy alchemical axe, threw all the materials into it, heated it up, closed his eyes and guided it with his will.

explosion.

Refill the Alchemical Axe with water to heat it up.

explosion.

After an hour, more than half of the materials prepared by Wang Chen had been used up, and the sucrose doing experiments next to him had become dull and numb to the sounds of explosions. Albedo recorded the fifteenth failure data.

Fifteen times, this is what happens to a non-lucky person without a guaranteed bottom line. Wang Chen suspected that it was his own dark relic that was causing trouble, so he adjusted the success rate to 0.98%.

Albedo is worthy of being a great alchemist. He still has a calm mind and said calmly:

"We have completed the routine operations. If the problem is not with the alchemical container and the ritual, then the problem may be with the materials. If it is really the materials, we may have to challenge the Formless Wind, Formless Thunder, Quick Freeze Tree, Explosive Fire Tree, Formless Rock, and we also have to look for the Formless Grass that we don't know where it is."

I do know where the formless grass is, but in the game, Mond seems to be eight or nine kilometers away from the desert, which means it is nine hundred kilometers away in reality... No, I can't beat them with my strength, Wang Chen's face wrinkled into a bitter gourd.

"Anyway, let's try some unconventional methods with the remaining materials."

Albedo didn't seem to think too much about it. He placed a set of materials directly on the table without drawing any talismans or putting anything under them. He then began to sing to them: "Da... Dada Dada... Dada Dada... Da... Da."

"Bang!!!"

This is a volume that surpasses the previous fifteen times.

Albedo sang the alchemical materials... to pieces.
