Male Succubus Apocalypse

Chapter 4 Advanced Technology

Preparing alum using an aluminum can is a rather interesting little experiment.

The so-called alum is actually aluminum salt. The first thing to do is to convert aluminum into aluminum ions. The simplest way is to add acid. In the past, concentrated sulfuric acid was used, and then potassium sulfate was added, and potassium aluminum sulfate with low solubility would precipitate.

However, in the preparation process in the previous life, various kinds of white unknown powders would often be produced because the aluminum cans themselves contained other metal impurities.

However, in this world, surprisingly, there is aluminum of a higher purity - this would make the experiment much more convenient - and when Weiwei handed it to him, Xu Heng was shocked.

No alum was found, but is there pure aluminum?

The process is some kind of "magic electrolysis method". Well, we shouldn't underestimate the other world.

But when asked whether there was "potassium hydroxide" or even "aluminum hydroxide", Vivian was obviously confused and thought it was some kind of spell.

So Xu Heng had to make it roughly.

The simple and crude preparation of potassium hydroxide is nothing more than using ground shell powder and wood ash, burning them at high temperature and then putting them into water to obtain a solution.

In a pale "laboratory" - basically, whatever Xu Heng needs, Vivian will provide it with space magic, including a magical heating device similar to temperature control. Although the units used here are different, as long as you know the boiling temperature of water, you can roughly convert it.

Xu Heng couldn't remember the exact operation, and he didn't have any hope of achieving high productivity.

First, potassium hydroxide and aluminum are reacted.

After Xu Heng proposed to cut the "aluminum" into thin slices, Vivian demonstrated the simple and crude method in front of him.

"Element of wind, heed my call..." As the spell was chanted, a green magic circle appeared in Vivian's hand.

After a pause, the aluminum block on the laboratory table was cut into thin slices by green moon-blade-like things that were just visible to the naked eye, and then automatically stacked up and fell in the air, leaving Xu Heng stunned.

It's not like he had never seen a succubus perform the "Wind Blade Technique" before, but the difficulty of such precise and varied spell variations was unimaginable to Xu Heng.

Hold back your surprise and continue the experiment.

Continue to cut the aluminum sheets into smaller pieces, and then put them into the potassium hydroxide solution in piles (not all of them need to be cut). After four waves, add concentrated sulfuric acid - this other world also has it.

Then let it stand and cool, wait for the alum to precipitate, then filter it, wash it with ethanol, and finally wait for the ethanol to evaporate naturally to get powdered alum.

"This is alum!" Xu Heng presented the alum in the cup to Weiwei, feeling the pleasure of a teacher teaching a student.

It turns out that this is what it feels like in novels when the hero travels to another world and shocks the primitive people with modern knowledge!

Xu Heng was ecstatic.

"I didn't expect you to be so capable. Then what's the use of your alum? How can it be used for cleaning?" Vivian was inevitably surprised, but she had to face the crisis without showing it, and asked with her hands folded in front of her chest.

"Okay, Master. Now let's see what it does." Xu Heng took out the water he had prepared and poured the alum into it. "Master, could you please throw some mud and sand in there?"

Vivian didn't hesitate. She raised her hand and used a simple magic control to let some mud and sand enter the cup.

Soon, a gelatinous substance formed in the alum solution.

"Take a look, can something like this be used to make slime?" Xu Heng looked at Vivian expectantly.

This is not a way to make slime! The slime has uneven density and the liquid is not thick enough. This guy really doesn't know anything about magic.

but……

"You can't make slime, but the alum you made can make me a lot of money!" Vivian smiled and said. "Then I don't need you to clean the Mage Tower anymore. Just arrange my meals every day."

Xu Heng's mood had been low, but after hearing the following words, he became excited again. "Okay, thank you, Master!"

"But, I need you to go through one more step."

"Wh…what steps?"

"The art of speaking!"

The art of speaking, also known as the art of truth, is to judge the truthfulness of the speaker's words. To put it bluntly, it is actually a scan of the psychological state of the person being treated. If he tells a lie, there will be fluctuations in his mind, and if he tells the truth, there will be another kind of fluctuation in his mind.

At this point, Xu Heng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Come on!"

"Very good!" Vivian nodded.

Do you have any other intentions?

Are you working for some big shot?

Did you develop your cooking skills on your own?

Do you have any ill will towards me?

……

After a series of inquiries that were simply nonsense and torture to Xu Heng, Vivian was finally convinced that Xu Heng was an extremely invincible and bizarre demon.

A weird succubus who was summoned by accident without any intention and who loves to study cooking.

Xu Heng had no objection to this. It was normal to be wary of people, especially a succubus like him who had an extremely bad reputation.

After finishing, Xu Heng came up again, "Master, I have many other ideas, maybe I can make money for you too!"

After seeing Xu Heng prepare alum, Vivian still had some trust in Xu Heng, so she asked him to bring it forward and even draw a blueprint.

So, one by one, Xu Heng put forward all the ideas that seemed to Vivian to be unrealistic, such as an automatic clothes washing machine, an automatic cookie baking box, an automatic freezing and preservation box, etc.

In fact, these things are useless to magicians, because magic can achieve almost all of these things, but for alchemists, magic mechanics and warriors who only have muscles, it may be different.

With the idea of ​​giving it a try, Vivian planned to take the alum and these blueprints to find her alchemist and magic mechanic friends to study ways to make money.

As a magician, you are not burning money, you are changing money, making the money disappear!

So after Vivian went out, Xu Heng was taken to his room by the mercury slime, a simple white room with only a bed and a mirror.

He told the slime to bring him the rest of the meal. After he ate his fill, he told it to wake him up in the morning, and then he quickly fell into a deep sleep.

Without the night attacks from the succubus, and without having to worry about attacks from other demons, I just fell asleep peacefully.

……

"Dad Aaron, are you saying that this thing called alum can provide a lot of drinking water?" Vivian exclaimed as she looked at the thin and skinny old man in front of her.

"That's right, we call this thing the Purification Stone, but the output is very small, and we currently don't know how to prepare it. It is very expensive in places where water is scarce, and your servants seem to have mastered advanced technology!" Father Aaron pushed his thick piece of research and said excitedly in the fanatical tone unique to pedants.

"Vivian! Were these drawings really drawn by your servants?" An anxious voice came from the side. Vivian turned her head to look at an old dwarf who was studying the drawings at the table behind her and nodded.

"Yes, Uncle Bohan!"

The sturdy old dwarf with a white beard and bald head, wearing a jacket and only slightly taller than the mercury slime, smacked his lips, a movement he would make when he was excited.

In the past, when Vivian called him uncle, she would always complain that Aaron was only in his sixties, while she was nearly four hundred years old, so she should call him grandpa - she was older than Aaron.

However, he no longer cared about it because of the drawings. "Although these drawings are sloppy, they are very creative. For example, this thing called a washing machine has built-in rollers, and this refrigerator and thermos cup control the temperature through the specific heat capacity of the liquid. They are all ingenious. I still don't understand many of them, but they are enough to inspire me to solve many mechanical problems! This person may not be professional enough, but he is definitely a genius!"

"I'll buy your slave! Vivian, make your offer!"

"Damn Aaron! I saw you first! I'll give you 10,000 purple crystal coins!"

"I'll pay 20,000!"

Soon, a dispute broke out between two of the continent's top inventors, which gradually turned into a brawl. If Aaron, a human, and the dwarf Berhan really came to blows, Berhan could kill Aaron with a single slap. However, although the two seemed to be enemies, they were actually friends and would not really fight.

Vivian, standing next to him, didn't know how to face the overwhelming wealth.

Twenty thousand purple crystal coins! What a concept!

On the mainland, 1 amethyst coin = gold coins = silver coins = copper coins, and a meal in a restaurant costs about copper coins. These amethyst coins are equivalent to about to million on Earth.

This is also a considerable fortune for a magician.

Amethyst coins are made from a special magical ore and are an important material that is indispensable to every magician. Their value is definitely higher than the market price. Generally, only gold coins are stored, and amethyst coins are very rare.

This time I made a lot of money!

"When did I say I would sell my servant? Only these blueprints and his technology can be sold to you!" Vivian came back to her senses and said with amusement while looking at the two old men rolling on the ground and fighting.

"Ah, you're not selling it?"

"You're stingy with these drawings too? Little Vivian, how come you've become as stingy as your teacher?"

Aaron and Bohan let go and asked one question at a time.

"But I can take you to meet my servants. My wizard tower is a very private place, and you need to pay for the entrance fee, just... just five amethyst coins per person!" Vivian thought for a moment and said.

"You need money for this? When I visited the palace of the Roen Empire, people actually paid for it!"

"Yes! I can go to the Lich King's palace for free!"

The two great inventors had disagreements again.

But Vivian was sure they would give it, and they could even take out 20,000 yuan, so why was she afraid that they wouldn’t pay for the tickets?

She didn't know about others, but her two old scholar friends who had developed countless inventions, especially war weapons, must have such a rich family background that they could buy her ten wizard towers!

She had almost spent all her savings just to build a wizard tower, so it was time to focus on money.

This was also her own fault. She insisted on building a super-large wizard tower, which was almost the largest in the continent, making countless of her fellow wizards jealous.

……

And in this super-large wizard tower, Xu Heng got up early, washed, and put on a shameful maid outfit - he asked Slime, and found out that there were only women's clothes in the whole tower, which seemed to be specially prepared by Vivian.

Just now, this naughty master asked himself through the slime to prepare two more meals, saying that some friends were coming, two men, both old men, one human and one dwarf.

He decided to make an oyster omelette for the old man, a shrimp and egg custard for Vivian, and a spicy seafood noodle soup for the dwarf.

Xu Heng thinks seafood can highlight the nobility of the meal, while Vivian seems to like foods like pudding, so she can try egg custard. Dwarves are said to like heavy-flavored foods, so why not try making something spicy.

I don’t know anything else, but female succubi love spicy seafood noodles.

Oyster omelette and egg custard are both quick to make, now all that’s left is to slowly prepare the seafood soup.

Seafood soup does not necessarily have to consist of seafood. It can be supplemented with bones and broth to enhance the flavor.

You can also use fish bones to make some simple fish sauce.

In short, I will definitely spend more time in the kitchen in the future, pickling some sauces and pickles, and making wine when I have time.

When Vivian formally notified the guests to come in, Xu Heng had already set the table and was still wearing a maid outfit, so he quickly tried to slip away.

Unexpectedly, she actually let me stay!

There was no choice but to wait by the side with a towel.

"There, there!"

"No matter what, little Vivian, I'm going to steal that person away today!"

Soon two figures came in from a place that looked like a door, one tall and one short, and started to trot away while making a humming noise.

"That one!"

"Come on, baby!"

Suddenly, the two old men saw him and ran towards him like hungry wolves seeing a little white rabbit, causing Xu Heng's heart to twitch violently.

His mouth was wide open, revealing his yellow teeth, and his perverted expression was obvious.

Oh my god, my master doesn't want me to do any py transaction!

If I hadn't been violated by the succubus, would it be the turn of these old perverts? No wonder they made me wear a maid outfit!

"Wow!" Xu Heng quickly dodged and ran away.

"Enough! You scared him!" Vivian's voice suddenly appeared, and a water curtain blocked the two old men. Xu Heng had already shrunk to the corner, and the mercury slime jumped up and down, hiding him behind it. "You guys go to the table and eat first! My servant's cooking skills are first-class!"

Then Vivian walked through the water curtain and came to the side of the mercury slime, and saw Xu Heng huddled in the corner with his two cat ears drooping together and his tail was covered with fur. She felt inexplicably funny and a little distressed.

I always feel like this demon has a bad past.

"Xiao Heng, come here, they have no ill intentions, they just come to discuss technology with you!" Vivian subconsciously reached out and rubbed Xu Heng's head, as if she was treating a kitten. Although Xu Heng had never taken special care of his hair, it was very smooth due to his race. It felt like a breeze blowing through it and was fragrant.

As I touched it, I wanted to play with the slight curl at the end. I found Xu Heng's hair very interesting.

After Vivian stopped touching him, Xu Heng slowly stood up and walked out with Vivian, who found him funny.

The two old men were already wolfing down their food.

"I didn't expect oysters could be prepared this way! Really good!" Aaron ate them elegantly with a knife and fork, looking intoxicated. "It must go well with wine, but it's morning now and my old bones can't handle it!"

"Shashasha! How refreshing! It would be nice to have a glass of ice beer! This is more delicious than any meal I had in the Kingdom of Pister (the Kingdom of the Dwarves)!" Bohan was very generous and ate the soup all over his beard.

Vivian also sat down and ordered the mercury slime to get some wine.

Xu Heng stood in front of the three people as if he was being judged. This was what Vivian called him.

After the three of them left and the wine was served, Vivian, who was reluctant to part with the last spoonful of such delicious egg custard, put down her cutlery and looked at Xu Heng and said, "This is the person you want to see, the succubus Xu Heng. Let's talk business!"
