Marvel: The Alchemist Just Wants a Peaceful Life.

Chapter 109 King Eitri of the Dwarves

Judging from the order in which the Dwarf King greeted him and Thor, it's easy to tell who is more important to him.

Unfortunately, just because Sherlock can see it doesn't mean that Thor, that blockhead, can see it too. But even if Thor could see it, he probably wouldn't care about the Dwarf King's actions.

After the Rainbow Bridge disappeared, Thor excitedly pulled Sherlock to the Dwarf King and introduced him to him.

"Sherlock, this is King Eitri, the greatest and most skilled blacksmith in Asgard! Eitri, this is Sherlock, my mentor and best friend!"

As Thor introduced himself, Etri bowed slightly to Sherlock in response to Thor's words. Etri automatically filtered out all the random titles and salutations, clearly demonstrating his deep understanding of Thor's personality.

On the contrary, Sherlock was extremely surprised after being dragged by Thor to stand in front of Etri and seeing Etri's face clearly.

Little devil!

Seeing the little devil standing in front of him with a smile on his face, wearing a crown, Sherlock still felt the ecstatic joy of a Game of Thrones fan, even though he knew that the person with the same face as the little devil was named Etri and had nothing to do with the little devil.

What an amazing collaboration!

After shaking hands with Etri, Sherlock began his tour of the dwarven planet Nidavellir, led by Etri.

Nidave is actually not very large; in fact, it is more like a workshop than a planet. Its size is even smaller than Asgard, but the technology it contains is no less advanced than that of Asgard.

During his visit, Sherlock frankly stated that he wanted to witness the dwarves' forging techniques and learn how they captured the sun or planets to use as the core of their weapons.

These were supposed to be the most closely guarded secrets of the dwarves, but surprisingly, when faced with Sherlock, the alchemist, Etrid didn't hide anything and directly showed Sherlock the dwarves' top-notch equipment manufacturing technology.

Using that neutron star as a source of fire, the dwarves could melt almost any metal in the universe.

This is not what makes the dwarves most proud. What truly makes them proud is the process of making the molds!

Sherlock carefully observed the dwarves making the molds and came to a conclusion that surprised even Sherlock himself.

The dwarves, through the creation of the mold, essentially created a rudimentary transmutation array using magical technology. Finally, they melted the proportioned raw materials with the energy of a neutron star, allowing the transmutation to be completed under the catalysis of the mold.

It's no exaggeration to say that the dwarves invented a technique based on the principles of alchemy, using magical technology to imitate alchemy to the greatest extent possible!

Such ingenuity even amazed Sherlock, the alchemist.

However, what amazed Sherlock even more was the dwarves' method of embedding cores into their weapons.

The method of capturing planets that Sherlock had always been curious about was actually so simple that even Sherlock couldn't understand it. To put it bluntly, it was basically the same as putting an elephant in a refrigerator.

First, select a planet as the target.

Then, they began constructing something like a Dyson sphere around the "target," and the final form was basically similar to the neutron star located in the very center of Nidavellir, which served as a "furnace."

Finally, using the energy of another star and enhanced by magical technology, the target was compressed and folded, ultimately transforming it into a core that could be embedded in a weapon.

To be honest, Sherlock was initially very interested in this technology, but after reading the technical data and construction conditions provided by Etri, Sherlock felt that he was not worthy of it.

Leaving aside the enormous investment required for the capture, the energy required for compression alone is beyond Sherlock's imagination.

With that time, Sherlock would be better off researching how to forcibly create a so-called "star core" using alchemy.

Once Sherlock learned what he wanted to know, the truth came out. When Sherlock revealed his reasons for coming to Nidavellis, it was clear that Odin had given prior notice. Etri was not surprised by this and was even somewhat eager to try.

Sherlock's goal was simple: first, to utilize the technology of the dwarves, combine it with the Asgardian magic he had learned, and use the Asgardian blueprints he had acquired, Sherlock planned to modify his Spear of Longinus.

Secondly, using materials from Nidavellir, Sherlock plans to recreate his mechanical arm and the Destroyer armor hidden within it.

Finally, and most importantly, Sherlock planned to collect as many items as possible that he might need in the future, and also do some Asgardian weapon collecting.

Etri had already received Odin's instructions regarding Sherlock's plans and naturally wouldn't object. In fact, it's no exaggeration to say that even without Odin's instructions, Etri would have agreed to Sherlock's request.

After all, this was a genuine alchemist, and the dwarves spent their entire lives merely imitating and chasing after his creation.

Etri was naturally unwilling to give up such an opportunity to observe alchemy up close, nor would he give up the opportunity to have Sherlock instruct him on dwarven blacksmithing.

The two sides hit it off almost immediately and started working enthusiastically. Thor, the roughneck, could only follow behind Sherlock, looking on in bewilderment, and occasionally being pulled along by the two to do manual labor.

Sherlock, of course, wouldn't let Thor off the hook, and even created Stormbreaker right in front of Thor without Thor knowing what was happening!

Even the materials used in Sherlock's Stormbreaker, as well as the alchemical arrays, runes, and magic runes inside, are better than the original!

It's worth noting that the original Stormbreaker's handle was made from Groot's arm, while the one Sherlock is holding is a genuine branch from the World Tree!

Of course, the price was that Sherlock optimized the mold for the Stormbreaker, and as for what would happen next, Sherlock had no idea.

In addition, Sherlock didn't overlook Hela's multi-spiked longsword, which was small at close range but large at long range, or Odin's Spear of Eternity. He even took the time to study how to fuse the Spear of Eternity with the Spear of Lang.

In addition, Sherlock also made a lot of all sorts of random props, at least ensuring that almost every Avenger had two sets of props with completely different styles.

Even Zhao Weike Sherlock didn't forget to arrange a suit for him that functioned as a tuxedo.

Putting everything else aside, at least we don't have to worry about Zhao Weike's safety anymore.
