The Wizard: Starting as a Corpse Burial Man - An Infinite Side Hustle

"The testing method is the same as the previous learning content, which is to mix alchemy pigments."

Next, test the effects that the pigments can produce.

I will first demonstrate how to mix the paint, and then you will repeat it.

As soon as Sandru finished speaking, the various materials in the resource area began to shake slightly.

Then it floated up and drifted all the way to the experimental table next to Sandru.

Sandru then demonstrated how to process and combine the various materials.

Sandru, as a certified wizard, possessed considerable talent in mysticism.

Therefore, it can generate additional benefits when conducting teaching activities.

Therefore, when teaching the processing and mixing methods of the first few materials, everyone was able to understand.

They even felt it was nothing special.

But when Sandru picked up a bird's beak that was entirely black but emitted a faint glow, and then began to explain how it was processed...

Everyone sensed that something was wrong.

"Using a carving knife made of special minerals, one hundred and thirty different intricate runes are carved in specific areas of the bird's beak."

This brings out the unique qualities contained within the bird's beak.

Then another type of alchemical pigment is used to coat the surface of the bird's beak.

This allows the bird's beak to be transformed into liquid while preserving the rune's effect.

Then, from this, the final, true alchemical pigment is constructed...

Just hearing about this step makes some people's scalp tingle.

I don't think I can do the same thing at all.

Not to mention mixing the corresponding alchemical pigments.

Sandru, of course, also noticed the reactions of the burial men.

After explaining all the processing steps for the materials, Sandru glanced at the somewhat bewildered crowd:

"If you believe you cannot mix the corresponding pigments, you do not have to participate in the assessment."

Upon hearing this, some of the people who buried the bodies immediately abandoned the test without hesitation.

After all, conducting a test would inevitably consume at least one of Sandru's materials.

Sandru will likely consider this an investment in himself.

If I fail to pass the entrance exam for the wizarding academy, nothing good will happen.

A short while later.

Those who gave up the test had their memories of that period erased by Sandru through magic.

This is to prevent the concentration of knowledge from being affected by too many people knowing the formula for alchemical pigments.

Then, in a moment of confusion, he left the alchemy workshop.

Only four people remained in the original spot.

Sandru, the official wizard.

Ansu.

Tistu.

And Hector, who returned to the alchemy workshop from the Knights of Favonius.

The remaining number of people and the selections were the same as he had expected.

Sandru nodded slightly, and then once again invoked the spell that used mental power to interfere with external objects.

The next moment, many materials in the Alchemy Workshop material area also floated into the air, just like before.

A few seconds later, it floated to the alchemy platform next to the three of them.

"A total of three sets of materials were prepared, and the time for mixing the alchemy pigments was extended to three hours."

Let's begin.

No sooner had Sandru finished speaking than Ansu, having obtained the alchemical materials, immediately began to use the shadow beneath his feet.

The next moment, the shadow beneath their feet began to sway rapidly like ripples on water.

At the same time, the thickness was obtained.

However, it did not transform into a shadow dragon form covered with vertical pupil-shaped patterns as before.

Instead, they became tentacles, which in turn coiled up an equal number of alchemical tools.

This assists Ansu in processing various alchemical materials.

Prior to this, Shadow Dragon often assisted Anzu in mixing alchemical pigments.

And under the effect of "Whatever you learn, you will surely gain" in the "Entry - Knowledge Brilliance (Color)" section.

Shadow Dragon's proficiency in [Knowledge - Alchemy Pigment Mixing] is also steadily improving.

In contrast.

Even now in its tentacle form, Shadow Dragon can still serve as Anzu's alchemical assistant.

at the same time.

Hector, who had returned to the alchemy workshop from the Knights of Faith, also began to practice the modified "Death Breathing Technique".

Soon after, wisps of undead energy surged from Hetok's body and attached themselves to the other party.

Immediately afterwards, numerous undead auras, resembling black mist, rapidly solidified.

Thus, they transformed into translucent palms.

Just as Anzu used tentacles transformed from Shadow Dragons, Hetok used these translucent claws to assist in processing alchemical materials.

Testus, who was not far away, also saw what the two were doing.

Have they all mastered similar abilities?

Seeing this, Tistu once again rubbed the bone ring in his hand with his fingers.

At the same time, he channeled a wisp of his spiritual energy into it.

The next moment, a pile of tiny bones appeared on the alchemy platform beside him.

Immediately afterwards, numerous bones of different shapes and sizes quickly converged and fused together.

Until they transformed into bony hands with legs.

Then, under Tistu's instructions, he assisted him in processing various alchemical materials.

The processing of the first few materials went relatively smoothly.

Even with the complex and challenging process of mixing alchemical pigments used as raw materials, the goal could still be barely achieved.

But things changed after they started carving runes on the bird's beak.

Although the bony hand can execute the commands given by Tistu, it cannot do things that Tistu was originally unable to do.

The alchemical item that Testu used to summon the bone hand was not of high quality.

Therefore, when the tenth rune was drawn.

The bony hand holding the carving knife lost its balance and immediately made a mistake.

Upon seeing the erroneous patterns that shouldn't appear on the bird's beak material, Tistu's expression immediately changed.

After all, the tool used to carve patterns on a bird's beak is a carving knife.

It cannot be easily erased like paint.

This means one thing:

Tistu wasted a piece of material.

"We only have two chances left to try and fail; we can't afford any more mistakes."

With this in mind, Tistu no longer relied on his bony hands to lead the carving work.

Instead, it allows the bony hands to process other materials.

Tistu picked up the carving knife himself and began carving runes on the second bird painting material.

However, at this moment, Testu is not at his peak.

A jumble of distracting thoughts swirled in his mind.

Numerous gruesome corpses and experimental subjects at the wild wizard's residence.

Rumors about Sandru Laboratories...

And Ansu, who may or may not have realized what she had done.

Driven by a variety of emotions, Testu became increasingly nervous.

The movements of using the carving knife also deviated slightly.

pat.

Before the three-digit rune could be drawn, another crisp sound rang out.

An unsightly scratch appeared on the bird's beak.

The scratch was located between the two runes.

Therefore, under the effect of connecting the two runes, the scratch immediately turned into a crack.

The situation is even worse than last time.

Upon seeing this, Testu broke out in a cold sweat.

In order not to jeopardize his last chance, Testo immediately wiped away the cold sweat with the back of his hand.

Then, he subconsciously looked towards where the other two people were.
