158 Synthesizing (2/2)

”Maybe Mr. Professor is planning to attack Felipe when he’s conducting the experiment… to strike him when Felipe is unprepared.” Bread also lowered his voice. He hated Felipe a lot.

”Contemptible…” Garrupa took a glance at Bread, ”but I like it!”

”Naive…” The necromancer put on a cold smile, ”You think Felipe would be that stupid? You think the viscount would be just an onlooker?”

On the stage, Sidney also whispered, ”What does Mr. Professor want to do?” He was confused since he never thought the experiment would be successful.

”No idea. I’d rather put more thoughts into how to survive in the Hand of Paleness,” Tess answered.

Cessy also shook his head, ”I’ve made up my mind. I’m going to join the Hand of Paleness, no matter if his experiment works or not.”

Sidney remained silent for a while and then nodded, ”You guys are right. Joining the Hand of Paleness seems to be the best choice for us right now.”

”Mr. Professor, let’s start.” Felipe’s eyes looked a bit crazy.

Lucien quickly browsed through the journal Arcana that he once read and copied in his spirit library to make sure that the chemical elements he remembered were right, and then he said to Felipe, ”Gather nitrogen and hydrogen and store them separately.”

Lucien was trying to use the industrial way to synthesize carbamide, which was the first artificial synthesis of organic matter on Earth. The reason why Lucien did not go for the laboratory method was that some of the chemical symbols involved in this process were not familiar to him, and he did not want to give Felipe any reason to doubt his true power.

Also, at the same time, the industrial way was simple, and the several experimental substances were very common. Their chemical symbols were familiar to Lucien because he once read about them in the journal. As for the required environment of high temperature and pressure, in this magic world, it was not something hard to achieve.

Gas Separation was just a common magic for sorcerers. Felipe thought that the beginning of the experiment would be different.

”A piece of magnet…” Lucien made Felipe put the catalyst into the reactor, ”Mix the gas according to the proper percentage, and then heat it to about five hundred degrees, and the pressure is…”

Following Lucien’s instruction, Felipe tried his best to turn on all the alchemy magic circles and meet the requirement of temperature and pressure.

After the reaction finished, Felipe sensed the container, ”Nothing, Mr. Professor.”

”Not yet,” Lucien answered with patience. ”Separate nitrogen and hydrogen, and keep the remaining gas.”

”Ah… ammonia gas.” Felipe shrugged, ”You could’ve told me earlier. I have some previously made ammonia gas in my lab.”

Lucien, in fact, did not know how to say ammonia in this world. He did not respond, but continued his instruction, ”Cool it down and let it liquefy. Then, separate it to get carbon dioxide.”

Felipe could already tell what Professor wanted to do here. He did not believe that this simple experiment could produce carbamide.

Following Lucien’s requirement, Felipe put the liquid ammonia and carbon dioxide into reactor again.

Again, high temperature and high pressure. But this time, the temperature was only about two hundred or so, and the pressure was lower than the last time.

”Keep the temperature and pressure, and let’s wait for a while.” Lucien nodded.

Felipe, the viscount, the necromancers and apprentices were all waiting. They believed that this was still one step of the experiment. The theory of Life Force would not be overthrown by a simple experiment.

They were waiting.
