After flashing red light for a while, the Fire Stone gradually became quiet.
The fragments of the Fire Stone were piled up like a mountain, and the resulting Fire Stone was only about the size of a palm.
The terrifying energy gathering that could have been felt disappeared at this time.
"Did it succeed or fail?" The moment Angel finished the alchemy, he felt that it must have been successful. However, after experiencing that extremely simple vision, he was a little uncertain again.
Maybe he made a mistake in refining it? In other words, there might be something wrong with the refining method recorded on the leather scroll?
Because this refining was not designed by himself, and he did not add his own ideas to it. He completely followed the example, so now he is not confident.
Angel thought for a while and began to build a model of the Eye of Narda in his thinking space.
The "server" was quickly set up in his mind, and he began to retrieve the information and data of the Fire Stone from his memory. After comprehensive analysis, Angel began to identify the Fire Stone in his hand.
When the results came out, Angel was confused again.
"Is it really the Stone of Fire?!" Angel felt the information coming from the server with a look of surprise on his face. He was mentally prepared that this might be a mutilated version, but the answer he finally came up with was that he had really succeeded in refining it!
Looking at the fire-transmitting stone in his hand, although there seems to be no energy fluctuations on the outside, it is just a return to his original state. According to records, the Fire Stone contains nearly boundless fire energy!
However, Angel still has no feeling at all. He has refined an item that is called the top spell-casting medium in the wizarding world.
The refining process was actually too smooth, and the experience in the vision space was too simple, which made him feel a bit childish.
However, with the facts before us, there is no way to go wrong.
Angel thought for a long time and guessed, maybe this is the difference between synthesis and refining? Synthesis is just to integrate the fragments of the Fire Stone. There is not much in the alchemy part, so why is the vision so simple?
Angel could only think of this reason. According to his understanding of the vision space, this might really be the truth.
Angel originally wanted to test the effect of the Fire Stone, but at this time, he had already sensed an extremely terrifying energy reaction outside the door.
Angel hesitated for a moment, then opened the door with the Fire Stone.
As soon as the door opened, he saw Alderkras standing outside the door. A head of hair that looked like red silk fluttered in the wind and snow, like flames flying.
Alderkras did not look at Angel, but directly put his eyes on his palm.
The crimson stone, although there was no energy feedback, was inexplicably attracted to Alderkras.
It wasn't until Angel greeted him respectfully that Odekras slowly turned his gaze to Angel: "Did the refining succeed?"
Although Alderkras tried his best to maintain his arrogance on the face, his voice, which was deeper and hoarse than usual, betrayed his inner emotions.
"Sir, you might as well try it out." Angel didn't say whether it was successful or not. Although the feedback from the Eye of Narda was true, he still couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Simply answer in an ambiguous way. If the test succeeds, that's great; if there is a problem, there will be buffer space.
Looking at the crimson stone handed over by Angel, Odekras had unconcealable excitement in his eyes.
He took it carefully, examined it carefully for a moment, nodded to Angel and said, "Follow me."
Angel felt a gust of wind and snow blowing in front of him. Before he could close his eyes, the place he was in changed and he came to a long dark passage.
At the end of the dark passage, you can faintly see a red light.
Odekras walked in front, followed closely by Angel. As they went deep into the secret passage, a wave of heat rushed over from the front.
It wasn't until they reached the end that Angel discovered that this place was actually a fire crystal mine.
The bright red fire crystal mines are all over the cave, and the red light shines on the facets of the crystals, refracting the beautiful light, making the place as bright as day.
Fire crystal ore is a mid-level fire mineral material that is valuable. Logically speaking, it should appear in a place where the fire element is active. How could it appear here? Could it be that this is outside the Ice Valley?
"This is below the ice valley." Perhaps seeing the confusion in Angel's eyes, Odekras said lightly.
Actually in the ice valley? Angel's eyes were in a daze.
Probably no one could have imagined that there would be such a rich fire crystal mine underground in the ice valley where the cold wind was howling!
Alderkras took Angel all the way to the central area of the fire crystal mine. The fire crystal mines here are relatively scattered, but they look very empty, and the flame element in the air is also relatively active.
However, Angel vaguely felt that there seemed to be a frosty atmosphere here, which was somewhat similar to the feeling given by Alderkras.
Looking at this vast area, Angel had a guess in his mind: Could it be that this is where Odekras' real body usually stays?
Angel's guess was indeed right.
In order to delay himself from being eroded by the frost, Alderkras usually stayed here after recovering his true form, so this place was contaminated with an aura of frost.
Alderkras is the Flame Abyss Dragon. If it weren't for the fire crystal mine here, he probably wouldn't have been able to last this long.
This is also the best place to test the Fire Stone. After all, in the Ice Crystal Palace, if something goes wrong, the palace may collapse.
And the wind and snow will inhibit the performance of the Fire Stone, so Odekras brought Angel here to test it. At the same time, the fire energy here can also detect the self-recovery function of the fire stone.
During the test, Angel retreated to the edge.
Alderkras slowly activated the Fire Stone. As a red light flashed, a terrifying fire energy was released from the Fire Stone.
In an instant, countless red lights turned into phantoms of flames, sweeping across the entire space.
These flames themselves are not real. They are just the appearance of energy in the Fire Stone. They are extremely pure fire energy. If given to a fire wizard, they can be used as a reserve energy for releasing fire spells.
But now, these terrifying fire energies are being absorbed into Oderkras' body bit by bit.
At first, Alderkras closed his eyes and slowly devoured the fire energy. In the past, he could only rely on the low-level and mixed fire energy in the fire crystal mine to barely maintain the source of fire in his body; but the fire energy released from the fire stone is not only very high-level, but also has no impurities, and can be directly absorbed into the body.
The fire source in Oderkras's body has long dried up, and it is transforming the fire energy hungrily, and it is still longing for more flames.
In the end, Oderkras simply abandoned his reserve and thoroughly enjoyed the feast of flames!
I saw that Oderkras had recovered his dragon body, and his entire body was wrapped in the energy released by the Fire Stone, as if he was immersed in the ocean of fire.
This sense of comfort even made Odekras think of the legendary world burning with blazing source fire.
Angel stood aside and waited silently.
At this point, just by the smell of fire in the air, Angel was basically sure that the Fire Stone was really successful.
The anxiety in his heart finally let go.
…
Two hours later, Oderkras turned into a human body with satisfaction, placed the Fire Stone in the Fire Crystal Mine to absorb and purify the fire element, and then returned to the Ice Crystal Palace with Angel.
Alderkras stood under the mural and did not speak immediately. Instead, he looked at Angel with a profound look.
Angel's performance exceeded his expectations.
If compared to him, Popota was an insignificant human being. So Angel, before this, was just a step beyond "irrelevant" and was a somewhat interesting human being.
But after this incident, Angel's status in Alderkras's heart skyrocketed.
Almost to the point where he can be on par with Feng.
If Feng's painting gave Pina Jones the possibility of recovery, then Angel's Fire Stone gave Odekras the opportunity to go further.
After a long time, Odekras withdrew his eyes and said calmly to Angel: "You are very good. You have fulfilled your promise."
After a pause, Alderkras said in a solemn tone: "Human, you can gain my friendship."
Angel half-bowed and said, "This is my honor."
Before that, Angel learned from Fafnir that Alderkras had declared to the outside world that whoever could bring him the complete Fire Stone would gain his friendship.
However, the Fire Stone was too rare, and this promise was not finally fulfilled until Angel's arrival.
Therefore, Angel was not surprised when Alderkras said this.
No matter what, being able to gain the friendship of an abyssal dragon is very meaningful to Angel. However, compared to a friendship in name only, Angel actually cares more about——
"Lord Alderkras, regarding the curse on Toby..."
Alderkras nodded: "Of course I won't forget it, but if I want to lift the curse of disaster, I need to wait until my strength recovers to a certain level."
Odekras briefly explained his situation.
Only then did Angel understand that Odecras's original telling him that in order to lift Toby's curse, he must help him find the Fire Stone was not without purpose.
Alderkras's strength has been damaged by staying in the Ice Valley all year round. The curse of disaster must be lifted after the strength is restored to a certain level.
At first Odecras was unwilling and too lazy to explain these profound meanings. Now, since Alderkras told Angel that he was allowed to have his friendship, he did not hesitate to tell him the key to it.
Angel himself could also feel that although Odekras still had no expression on his face, the previous alienation and indifference gradually disappeared when facing him.
"I understand, how long do I need to wait?"
