"Guest, this is the letter." an old notebook was handed over.
"It is said that this notebook has a history of hundreds of years. Together with the Garnet Pendant, it is said that it is a relic of an aristocratic family," said the thrift store owner who took out his letter.
"Noble? Well, if they come from a noble, how much are you going to sell now?" Allen looked through his notebook and said noncommittally.
"Well, 200 pounds." George looked at Arlo and quoted a price.
Two hundred pounds in this period was not a small amount. Before the outbreak of World War I, the strongest currency in the world was pound. At this time, pound used gold coins. There were 7.32238 grams of gold in each pound, and two hundred pounds was 1.465 kilograms of gold.
Although Allen didn't care about such a little gold, he didn't want to be blackmailed as an unjust leader.
"20 pounds. If you accept it, deal. If you don't agree, cancel it." Allen glanced at George, put his letter on the table and took out 20 pounds. The price is equivalent to the salary of a skilled worker for half a year.
Seeing twenty golden pounds, George's eyes twinkled: "guest, this letter is handed down by an aristocratic family. It has a history of at least 300 years or more. I think its value is not just twenty pounds."
"Well, keep it for yourself." Alan reached out to put away the pound and turned to leave.
Seeing that Allen was about to step out of the door of the thrift store, George quickly said, "guest, please wait a minute. 20 pounds is 20 pounds."
......
Alan leaves the thrift store with an old letter. If the boss doesn't agree, Alan will directly use magic to take the letter away.
This letter is not something belonging to the aristocracy as the thrift store owner said, but even if it is left by the aristocracy, it will not be so expensive. There is one thing that the boss is really right. That is the history of this letter. Allen scanned it with a chip. This letter has a history of at least 500 years, that is, it was left in the 14th century.
Latin is used in the letter. This language is rarely used in this period. Now Latin is usually used in religion. Hundreds of years ago, Latin was the common language of the whole Europe.
As a language that emerged with the ancient Roman Empire, Latin also weakened with the demise of the Roman Empire. Now the only one who still uses Latin is the Holy See.
AILU just glanced through the letter. To Allen's surprise, what was recorded on it was alchemy.
Different from the alchemy of the wizard world, the alchemy of this world was first to get gold. In short, it is to turn iron into silver, copper into gold, or obtain a longer life through alchemy.
In legend, alchemy is believed to be created by Hermes trismegistes. This is the name of a God in Greek mythology. It is the God of travelers, commerce, thieves and livestock, and also the messenger of the gods. Later, this God merged with the Egyptian god of wisdom Toth and is considered to be the patron of magic. This letter records alchemy.
He performed Allen's mansion skill, and a gorgeous mansion appeared in front of him. Allen stepped into the dimensional channel leading to the mansion, and then the channel closed and disappeared.
Allen lay down on a recliner, then took out his letter and began to look through it. Most of the records on it were chemical reactions between metals and mentioned many novel theories, but their effect was limited. The only thing that brightened Allen's eyes was a legendary thing - the sage's stone.
This letter says the highest achievement of alchemy, the stone of sages.
The sage stone, as the name suggests, is a kind of stone that can be made only in the sage time. After the climax, everything will become dull. This time is the most peaceful time for the mind and body. Only at this time can the sage stone be made..... Well, the above is nonsense.
The sage's stone is a mythical material. It has long been the Holy Grail of Western alchemists. It is believed that it can be used to turn ordinary base metals into precious metals (such as gold) or make elixirs for immortality. Therefore, its title includes "philosopher's stone, stone from heaven, touchstone, raw materials of gold and silver, red medicine, the fifth element" and so on.
Due to the alchemists' unremitting pursuit of this material, it has also been given the titles of great miracle, great creation and so on. Sometimes, these titles are also used to refer to the makers of the sage stone, so as to vividly show that they are at the apex of alchemy.
In various legends and myths, they often appear in different forms.
Its nature is actually a panacea, which can cure any disease, make people immortal, and even turn base metals into gold.
It is generally considered dark red and may be in the form of stone, powder or liquid.
For thousands of years in the western world, countless alchemists have been trying to refine this stone. But only one person succeeded and has historical records, that is Nicole LeMay.
Alan first heard the name in the Viking family's collection. Nicole LeMay also had a name called Nicholas Flamel. He was born in France in 1330 and died in 1427. But until now, everyone still claims to have seen Nicole LeMay.
Nicole LeMay was well educated. He was proficient in Latin and Greek and was good at writing. At that time, he lived by selling books and copying books. Because his writing was very beautiful and he could also draw, nobles often paid him to copy some precious books.
Normally, this man should have little money, but he built 14 hospitals and renovated churches in Paris, France. According to the prices at that time, the money spent on so many buildings was not a small amount.
After his death, his living quarters and donated tombs were engraved with strange symbols and incomprehensible reliefs. Countless alchemists wanted to crack the secret, but they got nothing.
People who wanted to get the secret of alchemy secretly excavated the coffin of Nicholas and his wife. Like the plot in the legend, the coffin was empty and had nothing.
Nicholas also left some manuscripts before his death. At that time, these manuscripts did not know where they were scattered. This ancient letter in Allen's hand is one of them.
However, it only records that Nikolay successfully refined a sage's stone, but there is no record of how to refine it. Allen wants to finally know that the pendant of Victor may have been the sage's stone refined by Nikolay.
