For thousands of years, the medicines used by the medical community are derived from animals, plants, and naturally occurring and non-toxic metals such as gold. The girl first threatened to use mercury, a toxic metal, and now she was planning to use synthetic drugs that did not exist in nature. To trained doctors, this sounds outrageous. In the eyes of normal people, this is really unbelievable.
Dust plucked up the courage, pushed aside a pirate next to him, and walked in front of Ella in a few steps. In fact, compared to him, Ella is just a short person, but he has traveled all over the world, and he has heard the name "Triumpher" before. Not to mention that there were still a group of pirates surrounding Ella. Normally, even if Ella was the only one standing in front of him, he would only dare to lower his head and pretend not to see it.
He estimated that the pirates in the island republic would have to be more restrained, and Avicenna and the others were watching, so he had the courage to walk in front of Ella.
"King of Sweden, thank you for introducing us to the doctor."
Daxter chose his words carefully, fearing that an inadvertent move would offend the pirate king of the north.
"But, let's leave this to Avicenna. Anna's illness is a bit serious, and the doctor you brought is very young. If the treatment is not done properly, I am afraid it will have a very bad impact on the doctor's career."
Dast did not directly say that Paracelsus would cure Anna to death, but was worried that it would affect Paracelsus' career. This was already a very face-saving statement.
Ella said nothing. Her eyes kept moving between Avicenna, Anna, and Paracelsus. Anna is critically ill, and her decision is likely to be a trial of Anna's life and death.
Just when Ella was hesitant, Amy also came up and whispered in her ear: "Your Majesty, why don't we leave. This Paracelsus is really a bit..."
Ella was shaken.
"Paracelsus, how about we still..."
Before she could finish her words, she caught the girl's gaze head on. Ella's heart skipped a beat inexplicably, and she turned her head away in a hurry - the girl's eyes were as bright as the sun in the sky, and in comparison, Ella felt like an insignificant firefly.
"Paracelsus," Ella changed her words, "...it's up to you to cure her."
Avicenna was visibly startled when he heard the name "Paracelsus". Dast didn't know what this name meant. When he heard Ella insisting on letting the girl heal Anna, he finally couldn't help shouting: "King of Sweden, don't you understand! I said..."
"Dust, that's enough, there's no need to say more."
Anna interrupted Dust. She lay on the bed and smiled hard at Ella.
"Just do what my sister wants."
Everyone was silent for a while.
"Since it is the famous Paracelsus, then I will not show my shame here."
Avicenna stood up holding on to the wall and motioned to the group of disciples to follow him and leave here. Before going out, he said coldly to the girl: "I hope the name Paracelsus will become worthy of the name next time we meet."
The dispute ended hastily. After carefully questioning Anna's symptoms again, the girl said she wanted to use the alchemy laboratory, and left Anna's house with Ella.
Along the way, Ella lowered her head and said nothing. The girl was humming a tune, obviously in a great mood.
"Did you see the way Avicenna fainted? I've wanted to make fun of him for a long time! By the way, the patient has a serious fever. If he makes the medicine from scratch, he may not be able to catch up. I'm going to go to the alchemy. University, where some of the red dye I made before is kept—King of Sweden, do you want to come with me?”
Hearing the girl calling her, Ella raised her head in confusion, and the question in her heart blurted out: "Paracelsus, can you really cure my sister?"
The girl stopped. Those eyes as bright as gems looked at Ella blinkingly.
"This is the fourth time you have asked this question. Why are you hesitating and hesitating on this issue?"
Under the girl's scrutinizing gaze, Ella felt like a scarecrow who couldn't think. She looked away guiltily and replied: "I don't doubt your ability. But you are not even prepared to use herbs. This is really a bit..."
"Pity. You are obviously a wise person, but you are firmly bound by tradition and have no courage to challenge it. Such a person cannot enter the new world."
The girl evaluated Ella mercilessly.
"If you are just a mediocre person who is content with the status quo, it's okay to be pitiful. But if you think you are not, you might as well think about it carefully. Life only lasts for fifty or sixty years. If you stick to common sense, you can really get something. Is it what you want?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? It doesn't matter if it were anyone else, but you just say that His Majesty is bound by tradition?" Amy interjected from the side, "She is already the most deviant person I have ever seen!"
The girl ignored Amy, but stared straight at Ella and asked: "King of Sweden, let me ask you, how many planets are there in the sky?"
"Five, corresponding to five gods..."
The girl interrupted Ella: "But I think there should be six."
Ella was shocked: "Six? How could...?"
"The seven major metals in alchemy correspond to the five planets, the sun and the moon respectively. But recently I discovered an eighth metal, which I named zinc. This breaks the law of correspondence between heaven and man, so there are only three possibilities, either I It’s wrong, either the law of correspondence between heaven and man is wrong, or there is a planet in the sky that we have not discovered.”
"Don't you think you are wrong, so you think there is a new planet that has not been discovered by us...?"
"That's right. Tradition, common sense, and customs are just shackles that restrain people's wisdom. Nature is created by God's craftsmanship. Whether synthetic drugs can replace naturally occurring drugs actually only concerns one core issue - King of Sweden, do you think that human wisdom and skill can approach God?"
"Use skills to get close to God? Sorry... I'm not very sure." Ella replied weakly, "To be honest, I now tend to think that metal transmutation is impossible. Paracelsus, You said you wanted to show me the new world of alchemy, but where do you think the real end point of skills, such as alchemy, is?"
"It's not just turning metal into gold that's called alchemy. In my opinion, as long as you can turn something into another thing that's beneficial to people, it can be called alchemy. For example, winemakers, they all He is a great alchemist."
The girl answered Ella's question seriously.
"I don't know where alchemy ends. But I think God himself is a great alchemist. This natural world is a great work of alchemy, and the cycle of rain is the great distillation of God, the alchemist. Underground The formation of minerals, the growth of plants, and the production of life are all essentially alchemical processes. I also believe that human beings' own actions also rely on a perfect alchemical system. Digestion, respiration, and excretion are all alchemical in nature. Process. That being the case - then the art of alchemy can definitely turn inorganic matter into organic matter, turn organic matter into life, and make life imbued with wisdom - in the end, it may be able to create a living person."
"You just said - use alchemy to create humans?"
Ella and Amy both shouted in surprise.
"It's just a possibility. Refining the human body is prohibited."
The girl shook her head, no matter how Ella and Amy asked questions, they would not talk about this topic again.
