I'm doing daily quests in Wizarding World

Chapter 20 Alchemy Laboratory (Part Two)

There is also experimental data about iron earthworms on the side.

Iron Earthworm

Average body length: 3.2 meters.

Average diameter: 1 meter.

Strength: Knight-level (slightly stronger than a Knight)

Endurance: Surpasses the Grand Knight level, extremely strong

Reaction speed: Knight level

Linear speed: Failed! (Can't catch up with the horse) There are scribbles here, you can tell I was angry when I wrote this.

Tooth hardness: Level 3

Recovery speed: Level 3 Healing

Digestive capacity: Level 2

Materials needed: 10kg earthworms, 10kg refined iron, 500g yellow eyestone powder.

Production method: Add the raw materials to the Iron Earthworm prototype production machine and add the details of the steps. After production, place the Iron Earthworm egg next to the iron ore, and the Iron Earthworm egg will absorb the nutrients from the iron ore to grow on its own.

Growth cycle: 30 days

Lynn was aware of the grades following tooth hardness and recovery speed.

There were related records in the first notebook that Anglie gave him.

This is a wizard's assessment of the hardness of an item, and it has established evaluation standards.

Some materials with extremely high hardness can even withstand the bombardment of high-intensity magic without deforming in the slightest.

A hardness level of 3 is already quite high. In the wizard's evaluation standards, a hardness level of 3 is considered a high-hardness material, and it also has a certain resistance to spells. Under normal circumstances, the destructive power of a zero-ring spell is unlikely to damage a material with a hardness level of 3.

Earthworms and refined iron are not rare materials; they are basically found everywhere. The only rare material is yellow eyestone powder.

This should fall under the category of alchemy; Lynn didn't know what it was.

Judging from its combat strength, this Iron Earthworm is not very strong in direct combat.

If Lauren is considered as a combat unit, judging from the power with which Lauren punched Iron Earth away, if Lauren were fully armed with armor and weapons, Iron Earth might not be a match for Lauren in a head-on fight.

However, if it's in a complex underground terrain, and Iron Earth launches a surprise attack first, Lauren could also be in great danger.

Combat is never a simple data comparison.

Practical experience, venue, environment, and whether to go first or second are all important factors that determine success or failure.

The main reason is that the Iron Earthworm can move freely underground, making it more stealthy and threatening than ordinary monsters.

However, there is one more treasure.

As the creator of the Iron Earth, he naturally has corresponding means of restraint.

For wizards, regardless of the method used to create alchemical golems, mutated monsters, fused monsters, or familiars, there are corresponding means of control.

It can also be understood as a hidden door to monsters.

On the table next to it, a metal ring sat quietly.

This is the control metal ring.

All iron worms produced through this metal instrument are subject to the natural control of the metal ring.

Lynn picked up the ring. This metal ring had ten small holes, but only two of them were still lit up.

Lynn connected with the ring through mental energy and sensed the two units under the ring's control.

And these two units are located not far from here.

At the same time, Lynn could sense an emotion called "fear" emanating from them.

The source of this emotion was Serena, who was not far away.

Lynn's gaze fell on the enormous lizard.

Its body length exceeds five or six meters, and although it is lying on the ground, its head, which is raised to a height of nearly two meters, is still very high.

"You can take this lab," Serena said.

Lynn looked at Serena, his expression a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.

Did this large lizard know this was a laboratory?

And whether it was his imagination or not, Serena's "rationality" seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.

Serena turned and walked out of the cave.

Lynn remained silent. He had initially thought that the lizard was a sentient monster captured by his teacher.

However, this is not the case based on these few interactions.

But why would the teacher hide it in the deepest part?

Considering Serena's increasingly strong logical thinking ability, Lynn had a bold guess in his mind.

Regardless, I owe Serena a huge favor this time.

For Lynn, this alchemy lab had a different meaning.

This means he can continue doing daily tasks every day.

Lynn gave the instruction to put the metal ring on his wrist.

"come over!"

As Lynn gave the order.

Not far away, the ground cracked open, and two iron earthworms emerged from the soil.

They are somewhat chubby in terms of their length and diameter, and their heads are made up of two thin metallic membranes.

After Lynn put on the metal bracelet, he could sense the emotions of the two iron earthworms—awe.

"You two stay in the ground and follow me. Don't come out without my permission," Lynn ordered the two iron earthworms.

Then, right in front of Lynn, the two iron earthworms burrowed into the ground and disappeared.

Lynn walked to the shelf, where a cube-shaped metal block was placed on the top shelf.

This is the core of this alchemy laboratory.

Lynn took the cube of metal and poured his mental energy into it, just like using a magic wand.

The cube of metal in my hand slowly rotated, and a thin crack appeared on its smooth surface.

The cracks spread and rotated, then rotated like a metal Rubik's Cube.

The surrounding space, like light from a closed door, transformed into a beam of cyan light, which was absorbed into the metal Rubik's Cube in his hand.

As Lynn poured his mental energy into it again, the metal cube in front of him rotated and opened once more, and a beam of cyan light surged out from the gaps, transforming into a flat space around it.

After a simple test, Lynn was able to confirm that this folded space truly existed, but it was independent of real space.

There are two states that can be controlled simultaneously.

Lynn named the first state the concealment state.

In concealed state, the outside world will no longer be able to see the scene inside this space, and the inside of the space will also be unable to observe the outside.

Meanwhile, the metal cube exists in the outside world, which is the only two drawbacks.

The second state was named the Open State by Lynn.

Just like when you first see this space, people outside can see the interior scene from a certain distance, but they cannot enter directly. People inside the space can also see the scenery outside.

At the same time, only those beings permitted by Lynn can enter this semi-open space.

The first scenario might be safe, provided the other party doesn't know magic.

Lynn suspected that since the wizard could create such a folded space, he must also have the means to destroy or forcibly enter the folded space.

Therefore, the first state is not absolutely safe.

Lynn walked to the fragments of the Golden Gate and moved the remaining fragments into the folded space of the alchemy laboratory for storage.

This gold was undoubtedly a huge sum of money in the kingdom.

At least Lynn won't have to worry about money anymore.

Lynn, holding the Rubik's Cube, walked with Lauren out of the cave.

Compared to the way we came in, getting out is much simpler; we just need to keep walking outwards.

Halfway there, they suddenly heard footsteps and voices coming from the cave ahead.

Inside the mine, a group of eight people walked in.

The group of people still smelled of alcohol, carrying an oil lamp in their left hand and a mining pick in their right.

The leader, a burly and authoritative figure, said in a deep voice, "Have all those monsters disappeared?"

A short, balding, red-bearded man wearing a vest said, "I saw a wingless dragon run over and eat all those monsters."

"Why are there suddenly monsters in the mine? Could it be that we've opened the door that seals the demons?" the red-bearded giant said.

"There's no such thing as a devil, poverty is the biggest devil!" the burly man in the lead sneered.

"You want to go back to the poor days you had in the beginning?" the burly man said coldly.

The surrounding miners remained silent.

This is why they came despite their fear.

"There's a really eerie door deep underground, so I warned you guys not to break through it. Try to spread the work out evenly, and don't take too much at once. If you take too much, it'll be hard to hide on your person, and if the foreman finds out, you won't be able to take any!" the burly man said.

They walked straight down, and no one noticed that among the few stones at the foot of the cave wall they passed was a metal Rubik's Cube.

A hint of ferocity flashed in the burly man's eyes as he looked at the other miners around him.

These people are so stupid!

Moreover, they are short-sighted and easily tempted by small gains.

He would never have wanted to share the door if it hadn't been discovered by five miners at the same time.

The more people who know, the greater the risk of exposure. He has repeatedly told others not to tell anyone.

But in just a few days, the number of people who knew about it expanded from five to nine.

Some of these miners are from out of town, but most are locals. Although the work in the mines is tiring, the wages are not low, so many local men work in the mines. They are all related by blood and have strong family ties. In particular, many miners like to drink, and sometimes they like to brag after drinking.

He doesn't actually like drinking, but he gathers together every day to keep an eye on these people.

But he knew that the truth would eventually come out.

With so many people knowing, it's bound to leak out sooner or later.

So he's been secretly accumulating gold these past few days, waiting for the right time to leave. With all that gold, he can live a good life anywhere.

As for his wife and daughter, the burly man did not intend to take them with him, as too many people would only be a burden.

They went to the deepest part of the mine, where their secret was hidden.

Looking at the collapsed stone wall in front of me, and the remaining Golden Gate that had vanished without a trace.

Some miners ran forward a few steps in disbelief and searched through the rubble.

We found nothing.

"Who sneaked back!"

Some people got anxious, their eyes red and their necks bulging.

"Was it you? I saw you go out while you were drinking."

"Are you out of your mind? I had diarrhea and went to the toilet. Besides, how could I have run all the way from the pub to here in such a short time?"

The burly man, annoyed by the buzzing argument around him, was about to speak.

Suddenly, I felt my feet go soft, and the soil and stones beneath my feet gave way, causing my lower body to fall directly into a sticky and dense place.

In a panic, he braced himself with both hands on the ground beside him.

He wanted to see what it was, but all he felt was a heart-wrenching pain in his chest.

The next moment, he saw a huge object fall from the rock wall above him, swallowing the other person's head and body whole.

The enormous thing, resembling a clump of maggots, wriggled a few times in place.

A trickle of red blood flowed from the mouthpiece on the top of its head.

The burly man murmured, his upper chest now only remaining, and only hoarse groans came from his throat.
