Chapter 40: Black Fire


The linen bag carried by this strong boy was very small and bulging.

He obviously had not strengthened his body like Dudian.

It was very difficult to carry it on his shoulders.

After walking for a long time, he was gasping for breath from exhaustion.

Dudian's vision is more than three times that of ordinary people, so he can follow him from a distance without worrying about being noticed.

"At his age, he should be just an alchemy apprentice.

He just doesn't know whether he will use it himself or help his teacher buy alchemy raw materials."

Dudian's eyes showed some thoughts.

At this time, the sturdy boy stopped a car at the intersection.

Carriage, ride away in a carriage.

Dudian's face changed slightly and he quickly followed.

In this lively and prosperous area, the carriage was not very fast.

Dudian trotted behind with a linen bag on his back.

His strengthened body and three years of training day after day made his endurance far beyond ordinary people, and he continued to follow.

After seven or eight streets, Dudian felt out of breath.

When he was about to hire a carriage to follow, he suddenly saw the carriage in front of him stop.

Dudian stopped quickly and saw the strong boy jumping off the carriage, turned around and paid the copper coins, and then entered the alley on the side of the road.

Dudian immediately walked over, pretending to be passing by, and turned his head to look into the alley.

He was shocked when he saw that the alley was a dead end, sealed by a wall, and the sturdy boy actually disappeared into the alley. inside.

Damn it Dudian raised his eyebrows slightly.

After all, he was a man who was educated in science.

Naturally, he would not believe that there would be magic like in fairy tales in reality.

He entered the alley and looked carefully on the ground.

Obviously few people enter this sealed alley.

Dust is everywhere, and there are several buckets of garbage piled up at the entrance.

Because of this, Dudian's enhanced keen vision immediately sees traces of trampled footprints in the dust on the ground, and this The traces spread forward and stopped at a wall in the middle of the alley.

Dudian's eyes flashed, and he came to the wall and took a closer look.

He couldn't help but be startled.

He saw that this was not a wall.

It was clearly a piece of cloth painted with the same color as the wall.

If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't tell it apart.

"This little trick of hiding is indeed an alchemy apprentice."

Dudian reached out and touched it, but saw that the back of the cloth was hard.

It was probably blocked by some kind of stone, so it would not be dented and exposed by mice or wind.

Dudian secretly noted this place, turned around and exited the alley.

Obviously, this is an alchemist's stronghold.

If he reports it to the Holy See of Light, he will immediately receive a lot of merit as a scavenger.

However, he had no interest in doing such a thing.

On the contrary, he was prepared to blend into the small circle of this stronghold and learn about the alchemists of this world.

After all, what he knew about alchemists came from Roseyard's notes.

Although there were many things recorded in them, much of them were information only mastered by advanced alchemists, and there were fewer records of basic things.

However, if you want to join the circle of alchemists, you must become an alchemist.

The first step of proof for an alchemist is the black tattoo.

Dudian hasn't thought about getting a tattoo for himself yet, nor is he ready to join the alchemist circle so soon.

After all, according to Roseyard's records, the alchemist circle communicates in another identity.

The purpose of this is, They were worried that if one of them was exposed, they would be arrested by the Knights of Light and tortured to confess to the others.

"We will consider this formally after we come back from outside the giant wall."

Dudian glanced at the alley, turned to the intersection, stopped the carriage, and headed to the slums.

He had learned a truth since he was a child.

Doing many things at the same time affects efficiency.

Soon, the carriage came to the boundary wall of the slums.

Dudian jumped off the carriage and returned to the slums that he had not seen for a long time.

As soon as he approached, the strong smell in the air made him frown slightly, and he felt helpless in his heart. , I could only endure the strange smell, follow the trail to a more remote place, and find a dilapidated small hotel to rent.

In the hotel room, Dudian took out several raw materials from the linen bag.

The first step was to extract the sulfur ore from the sulfur.

He planned to use the most primitive refining method, using high temperature to heat the sulfur ore, dissolve it, and extract The sulfur solution in the upper layer is cooled, which is sulfur, and then ground into sulfur powder with a stone wheel.

Du Dian and the hotel owner asked for a brazier.

Although it was the rainy season, it was a bit strange to ask for a brazier for warmth.

However, with the copper coins Du Dian gave, the hotel owner happily agreed.

When he took out the dusty brazier from the warehouse, he returned it.

A few lumps of coal.

After Dudian returned to the room, he locked the door, lit a fire with the fire sickle given by the hotel owner, burned the coal, and then placed the sulfur ore on top.

After burning for a while, the fire was too weak, so Dudian simply bought a coal with the hotel owner.

Big bags of coal.

The melting point of sulfur is not high and it melts quickly.

Dudian took out the utensils he purchased in advance and began to hold the sulfur solution.

The room was filled with the strange smell of sulfur.

Dudian was secretly glad that he was prepared and put on a mask.

Due to nuclear radiation, masks did not seem to disappear with the technological gap and have always appeared in people's lives.

It has to be said that different environments promote different developments.

Dudian thought that he would get a gas mask like Roseyard's in the future.

For alchemists, who often deal with various substances, it is inevitable that they will ingest some toxic substances.

The effect of the mask is minimal, and it is only used by alchemy apprentices.

Just use it.

In the evening, Dudian finally got the ground sulfur powder and fire saltpeter.

As for the charcoal, he planned to make it himself.

This thing is simple.

"I didn't expect that making the oldest black gunpowder would be so tiring."

Dudian looked at his clothes that were stained by coal and smiled bitterly, suddenly yearning for the day when he would have an alchemy room of his own.

"I hope I can make a lot of money this time when I go outside the giant wall."

Dudian wiped the ashes from his face and his fighting spirit became high.

In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.

The night before the mission, Dudian said goodbye to the Julas, and under their gazes, he got on the black carriage sent by the Mellon Consortium's scavenger headquarters, returned to the business district, and lived in the previous ancient building.

In the fort, Macon and others were brought along with him, as well as other scavengers who graduated with them.

"I heard that we will set off early tomorrow morning."

Macon said excitedly: "Tomorrow we can go to the outside of the giant wall.

When I was a kid, I wanted to see it for a long time, but I was frightened by the scary stories they told. ” "You'd better save yourself.

Although the outside of the giant wall is not as scary as they say, it is definitely dangerous."

Zach said.

Shamu smiled slightly, looked at the things Dudian put beside the bed, and said, "Dean, what is this you brought?"

"Toy."

Dudian said casually, glancing at the black fire explosive tube he had made in the past seven days, thinking that it was packaged like this, so it would be impossible to prevent it from being taken away
