「......これさえあれば、あの驚異的な種族を傘下に治めることができる......?」
【星水】からは進化を。
【錆びぬ賢狼の血】からは狂化を抑える理性・従順を。
【結晶花】には魔力増幅が。
それぞれの要素が絡み合い、上手く人狼を進化させる
「錬金術によって人狼族は我が手に堕ちる......クククク......」
「お兄ちゃん、やばい、へん」
「お、エル戻って来てたのか」
しばらくログアウトしていた義妹のミシェルことエルが帰って来たようだ。
「うん。お花つみ、帰還」
「そんな報告はしなくていい」
「それで、おクスリ、できたの?」
期待の眼差しをエルに向けられ、俺は思わずたじろいでしまう。
を作っちゃった、なんて言い辛い雰囲気だ。なにせ元々はウィルスに感染してしまったNPCたちを救うためのワクチン作りが目的だと、エルには伝えてある。
その心に嘘偽りはなかったものの、この
だけど義妹の手前、兄としてNPCを救わず凶暴化させるウィルスを作ってやったぜゲハハとは言えない。
「さすが、お兄ちゃん」
胸が痛む。
ミシェルは昔から疑うことを知らず、常に俺や姉の言う事を素直に聞いてくれた。
そんな純粋な義妹をごまかし続けるのは非常に心苦しい。なので俺は、エルの期待に応えるべく動きだす他ない。嘘を真実に変えてしまえば問題ないのだ。
から取れた【亡者の肉】と【星水】の相性なんかいいんじゃないかと思い立つ。一度死んだ者の身体を強制的に動かし、なおかつ麻痺属性を持つ血液。それを進化させる水。
なかなかの良案だと思ったが......合成釜に【亡者の血】を入れた後に【星水】を掲げたところ、釜の中はじんわりと曇った。
「【星水】では相性が悪い......?」
一度、合成を中止し、しばらく考え込む。
【星水】でダメなら一段階レア度の低い【聖水】なんかはどうだろうか?
俺は【星水】を『銅の天秤』で下位変換し、【聖水】×10を作ってみる。
【魔を浄化する聖なる水。アンデッドや死霊系統に対し、強力な浄化効果を発揮する。さらに『
「まさか......蘇生?」
俺は即座に【亡者の血】と【聖水】を合成する。
そしてしばらくかき混ぜ棒で、こねこねすること1分。
:【亡者の血】+【聖水】 → 【迷いなき救いの紅水】:
:【迷いなき救いの紅水】ができあがりました:
デバフや状態異常がついてしまうため、完全な復活アイテムとは言い難いが......リッチー師匠が追い求めていた、死者蘇生の一端に触れることができたのだ。
「また不気味。笑ってるの?」
これが笑わずにいられるかエルよ。

「お兄ちゃん、天才」
関係は【錆びぬ賢狼の血】や『太古の賢狼【化石】【両手足】』などが採取できた、『

そうとなれば、手早くエルと共に彼の地へ向かう。
今回はエルに、戦闘は避けるようにと強く言い聞かせ、滅びた都市の散策を優先する。前回、大量に稼いだ経験値を少しずつ消費し、『
そうしてミソラさんの『星の光を集束する装置』の回収依頼とも関係のある場所へと辿り着く。
星々の光を取り込もうとして伸ばされた、五つの塔。『
「お兄ちゃん、この橋を渡る?」
「あぁ。だがその前に......」
五つの塔からは『星空に駆ける橋』という空中回廊が、『星空製造所』へと伸ばされている。
俺とエルは、まさにその手前で足踏みをしている。
なぜなら体長5メートル以上にも及ぶ、【
あれら群れの中を無事に通過するなど不可能に見える。
だが、俺には【錆びぬ賢狼の血】で作った
そんな血液を元に作った彩菌であるならば――
俺は義妹の前で臆することなく叫ぶ。
「――『彩菌に飢える天動球』――!」
無数の電球が虚空より俺の背後へと垂れ下がる。
その一つ一つに彩菌を食わせてやるように、【

を吸収しては調整し、環境と適合させてから野に放つのが『彩菌に飢える天動球』の真骨頂。
黒と紫に明滅する電球群を見て微笑む。風に吹かれて今にも消えてしまいそうな光源たちだが、これをどうにかするのが俺の役目だ。
「たかだか、狂気をばらまく程度なら俺にだってできる。だが、俺はその上を――
【繁殖力:0 → 4】
【順応性:4 → 10】
目論見通りの結果が出たので、俺は各天動球がトレースした箇所へと彩菌をばらまくように設定。
その全ては一本の橋、『星空に駆ける橋』へと定める。
白亜の大理石で作られたような頑丈な橋に、天動球より光が降り注ぐ。やがてそこには黒水晶状のキノコがにょっきりと生えてくる。予想以上に大きく、1メートルから2メートルほどの巨大キノコでちょっと不気味だ。そんな黒水晶のキノコは、夜の粉をまき散らすようにして大気へ胞子を飛ばす。
』たちは甲高く叫び、まるで興奮しているようかのように飛行速度を上げる。
「エル、いくよ」
「あぶない、危険」
だけは誰なのかを、ちゃんと植え付けられているはずだ。矛盾し、相反する効果がぶつかり合うのに不安はある。
だが、ここまで来たからには自分の錬金術を信じるのみ。
「エル。ダメだったときは逃げればいい」
そう言って義妹の手を取り、俺は橋の上を進む。
「お兄ちゃん、すごい」
「これが錬金術の力だ」
だが俺だけは主と認識し、襲ってはこない。PT内にいるエルも効果範囲内だ。
「あの子たち、ずっと暴れる?」
「黒いキノコがなくなって、
そう言いながら、俺は『星空製造所』の入り口へと立つ。そして漆黒の金属でできた巨大な扉を押し開いてゆく。扉の材質が妙に滑らかで、見た事のない未知なる金属かもと思っていた矢先、とある物を目にして俺は止まってしまう。
エルの呼びかけにも答えられず、俺はただただ扉に掘り込まれた文字を目で追う。
扉に刻んであったのは――
『星空製造所  所長 ノア・フィヨルド』

錬金術士として、その軌跡を辿るべき人物。
リッチー師匠を差し置いて、神智の錬金術士ニューエイジ・サンジェルマンより『創世』の名を受け継いだ存在。
創世の錬金術士ノア・ワールドと似た名称に、俺は完全に意識を奪われていた。
ノアという名がこの都市にあるというのは......あまりにも偶然すぎる。
いや、賢者ミソラさんがノア・ワールドと知己なのは、もしかして同じ『
このノア・フィヨルドという人物は、ノア・ワールドと何かしら関係があるに違いない。
ここに『創世』を追う鍵があると、そんな予感めいた波紋が胸中に広がった。
257 254 Stories An Alchemist Who Can Follow Madness
"A production festival!
[Colour Bacteria (Virus): Crescent Color (Nair Selini)]
[Infection: 3 7]
[Infectious power: 8]
[Reproductive power: 2]
[Adaptability: 10]
"... With this we can rule that amazing race under our umbrella...?
Evolution from [Starwater].
From [Blood of the Rusty Wise Wolf], reason and obedience to curb fanaticism.
[Crystal flower] has magic amplification.
Each element became intertwined, creating a colored bacterium (virus) that successfully evolved the werewolf.
"Alchemy causes the werewolves to fall into my hands... kukukukukukuku..."
"Brother, suck, heh"
"Oh, El, you're back."
Looks like Elle's back about his sister-in-law, Michelle, who's been logged out for a while.
"Yeah. Flowers, return"
"You don't have to report that."
"So, Kusuri, did you do it?
The look of anticipation is pointed at Elle, and I get unexpectedly deflected.
What a hard atmosphere it is to say that we have created colored bacteria (viruses) that enhance the werewolves. Anyway, I'm telling Elle that the goal was to create a vaccine to save the NPCs who were originally infected with the virus.
Though there were no lies or lies in that mind, I think this colored fungus (virus) is a great potency.
But in front of my sister-in-law, as my brother, I created a virus that didn't save NPC and made it ferocious. I can't say I'm a geezer.
"That's right, brother"
My chest hurts.
Michelle didn't know what to suspect for a long time and always listened honestly to me and my sister.
It is very painful to continue to deceive such a pure sister-in-law. So I have nothing else to do to meet Elle's expectations. If you turn a lie into the truth, you'll have no problem.
I think it would be particularly good for [the flesh of the deceased] and [the star water] taken from the cannibal demon (Ghoul). Blood that forcibly moves the body of the dead once, and yet has a paralytic attribute. water to evolve it.
I thought it was a pretty good idea... I put up [star water] after putting [blood of the deceased] in the synthetic cauldron, and the cauldron was twitchy and cloudy.
"Incompatible in [star water]......?
Once, stop synthesizing and think about it for a while.
If it doesn't work with [star water], what about [holy water], which is less rare one step at a time?
I subordinate [Starwater] with "Copper Balance" and try to make [Holy Water] x10.
[Holy water purifying demons. It has a powerful purifying effect on the undead and necromancer systems. Furthermore, according to a theory in The Rainbow Goddess (Arco Illis) Classic, it has the anecdote of healing the wounds of saints and even recovering those in a state of pseudo-death]
"No way...... resuscitation?
I immediately synthesize [blood of the deceased] and [holy water].
And with a stirring stick for a while, one minute to screw around.
: [blood of the deceased] + [holy water] [red water of salvation without stray]:
: [Redwater of Unstrayed Salvation] is ready:
It's hard to say a complete resurrection item because of debuffs and state anomalies... but Master Richie was chasing us to be able to touch one end of resurrection.
"Creepy again. Are you laughing?
I don't know if I can stop laughing, Elle.
The vaccine for the Race of Eaters is complete.
"Brother, genius"
Again, there seems to be something in the "Old Nest of Gears (Harold Gear)," where the werewolf (Lycan) relationship could be harvested such as [Rustless Sage Wolf Blood] and "The Ancient Sage Wolf [Fossil] [Both Hands and Feet]".
"A vaccine production tip for [Bacterial Species: Madness] will be found in The Old Nest of Gears (Harold Gear)"
In that case, I will soon head with Elle to his land.
This time tell Elle strongly to avoid the battle and give priority to walking in the doomed city. Last time, we consumed a little bit of experience earned in large quantities and proceeded to the inside of the Magic Armor (Oaken) City, grasping the position of the enemy floating on the board (board) of the Battlefield Play "Rudy Athens Board" dancing on the board.
That's how we get to a place that also has something to do with Ms. Misora's request to collect the "Star Light Focusing Device".
Five towers stretched out to capture the light of the stars. "The Poor Tower of the Five Dead Stars (Pentapinacle)", in the center of which is the black "Starry Sky Manufacturing Plant", which rises all the way to heaven.
"Brother, cross this bridge?
"Ah. But before that..."
From the five towers, an aerial corridor called "Bridge Running to the Starry Sky" stretches to the "Starry Sky Manufacturing Plant".
Me and Elle are stepping right in front of it.
Because even more than 5 meters long, [Astrophega] 's herd runs to the starry sky.
They seem impossible, such as safely passing through the herd.
But I have colored bacteria (viruses) made of [Rusty Wise Wolf's Blood]. By the people who lived in "The Gear's Old Nest (Harold Gear)," that blood is mixed with oil that plants in "The Armored Beast (Guianos)" an obedience for my husband to grasp someone.
If it's a colored fungus based on blood like that...
I scream in front of my sister-in-law.
"-" Heavenly Ball Hungry for Colored Bacteria "-!"
Countless bulbs hang behind me more than a void.
Like eating colored bacteria for each of them, [Colored Bacteria (Virus): Crescent (Nair Selini)] is unleashed from the Blood Wet Permanent Bottle (Blood Glass).
[Reproductive power: 2 0]
[Adaptability: 10 4]
Colored bacteria (viruses) scattered in the atmosphere lose significant infectivity.
But absorbing them, adjusting them, adapting them to the environment, and then releasing them to the field is the pinnacle of the Heavenly Sphere Hungry for Colored Bacteria.
I smile when I see a group of light bulbs that blink in black and purple. Light sources that are going to disappear in the wind, but it's my job to do something about this.
"However, I can do it to the extent that it spreads madness. But I will reign on the throne of the Mad Warriors."
[Reproductive power: 0 4]
[Adaptability: 4 10]
The results are as expected, so I set the colored bacteria to scatter to where each heavenly moving sphere traced.
All of which shall be set forth in a single bridge, the Bridge Running into the Starry Sky.
Light falls more than a heavenly moving sphere on a sturdy bridge like that made of white Asian marble. Eventually, black crystalline mushrooms grow there a little. Bigger than I expected, a giant mushroom about 1 to 2 meters and a little creepy. Such black crystal mushrooms fly spores to the atmosphere as they scatter powder at night.
Touching its particles, the "Mecha Star Dragon (Astrofega)" screams high and increases their flight speed as if they were excited.
"El, I'm coming."
"Blur, Danger"
If such symptoms of "Mad Warrior (Bursak)" appear in "Mechystron (Astrophega)" ... you must have been properly planted with who the Lord (or only) is. I am anxious that contradictory and conflicting effects will bump into each other.
But I've only come so far to believe in my alchemy.
"El. When you couldn't, you just had to run away"
That's what I said, take my sister-in-law's hand, and I move on the bridge.
"Brother, wow"
"This is the power of alchemy."
But I am the only one who recognizes the Lord and cannot attack him. Elle, who is in PT, is also within range of effects.
"Are those kids going to storm all the time?
"If you run out of black mushrooms and the accumulated value of the Mad Warrior decreases, it'll go back to normal."
With that said, I stand at the entrance to Starry Sky Manufacturing. Then he pushes open a huge door made of pitch-black metal. The material of the door was strangely smooth, and I thought it might be unknown metal that I had never seen, and I stopped looking at something.
I can't even answer Elle's call, and I just follow the letters dug into the door with my eyes.
It was carved on the door.
"Noah Fjord, Director of Starry Sky Manufacturing"
Noah............... Noah Fjord......
NPCs, one of the most powerful species in the Clan Clan, are known as the Ten Ten Kings of Heavenly Extinction.
As an alchemist, someone who should follow that trajectory.
Apart from Master Richie, he inherited the name 'Genesis' from New Age Saint-Germain, the alchemist of divine wisdom.
I was completely disoriented by a name similar to Genesis alchemist Noah World.
The fact that the name Noah is in this city... is too coincidental.
No, maybe Sage Mithola is acquainted with Noah World because she's from the same 'Old Gear Nest (Harold Gear)'.
This person named Noah Fjord must have something to do with Noah World.
Such a hunched ripple spread across my chest when I had the key to pursuing 'Genesis' here.
