Meanwhile, as Lumine began her journey in Inazuma, Ryen and the others received a message from Albedo and headed to his alchemy workshop.

After knocking on the door, a cute girl wearing glasses peeked out. Upon seeing Ryen and the others, her face lit up with joy:

"Mr. Ryen! You're here! Teacher has been waiting for you."

Ryen smiled lightly:

"Good afternoon, Sucrose. Are you getting used to it here?"

The girl before them was Sucrose, the one Albedo had highly recommended.

Albedo's experiments were numerous and complex, yet each was incredibly important.

All the alchemists summoned from Liyue were, for the time being, only capable of handling the production of the batch of alchemical potions that Albedo had already successfully researched.

To conduct original research on their own was still far beyond them.

So, Albedo wrote a letter to summon Sucrose.

Though young, Sucrose had a natural talent for alchemy and had studied under Albedo for quite a long time.

Although her focus was on bio-alchemy, the principle "master one, master all" applied.

With Albedo's guidance, she could shoulder a major portion of research and conduct some independent experiments.

At present, weapons such as the Cryo Sword were under Sucrose's responsibility.

Beyond that, she was also very interested in wolf packs and dragon groups.

Considering her remarkable achievements in bio-alchemy, Ryen gifted her a wolf and a dragon.

Although there hadn't been much progress yet—since the wolf and dragon inherently involved MC world laws—any future breakthroughs would be significant.

Strengthening an already powerful wolf pack and dragon group would be a huge boon.

Sucrose opened the door and led the group into Albedo's experimental area, speaking softly:

"All the tools and equipment here are well-equipped, much better than my previous workshop.

The experimental projects are all very interesting; I really like it here.

However, my alchemy skills still fall far short of the teacher's. The things Mr. Ryen gave me, I haven't made any real breakthroughs with yet."

As she spoke, Sucrose lowered her head in a slight display of disappointment.

Ryen chuckled lightly:

"That's alright. Products from the laws of another world aren't exactly things you can easily research…

Even Albedo spent over a month studying those potions and enchantments before he had any results.

You've only just arrived; there's plenty of time. Take it slowly, and you'll have your own achievements—I believe in you."

Hearing this, a glimmer of excitement appeared on Sucrose's face, and she nodded happily:

"I understand! Thank you, Mr. Ryen!"

Standing at the door of Albedo's laboratory, Sucrose whispered:

"Teacher said you can just go in. I have a few other experiments to work on, so I'll leave first, Mr. Ryen."

Ryen waved and watched as Sucrose turned and walked back into her own laboratory.

Ningguang stood nearby, slightly exasperated:

"Even with so many alchemists summoned from Liyue, and with Master Albedo training them, they can still only manage research and production of alchemical potions.

Alchemy really is a complicated discipline. I wonder how long it will take to train someone like Sucrose."

Ryen shook his head:

"Alchemy depends on talent. Clearly, the people you brought have limited aptitude. Take it slowly."

With that, Ryen pushed open the large door.

Albedo was busy at a nearby alchemy table.

Hearing the movement, he looked up at Ryen and the others. His expression remained as calm as ever, but his eyes clearly reflected happiness.

It seemed he had made a major breakthrough in some project.

"Mr. Ryen, you're here."

Albedo picked up the Abyss Eye beside him and quickly walked over to Ryen.

Seeing this, Ryen raised an eyebrow, a hint of delight in his voice:

"The research on the Abyss Eye has yielded results? So quickly?"

This was the Abyss Eye Ryen had just left with Albedo that morning. Ryen wasn't fond of how slowly it recharged after use.

Either he had to charge it with a divine-brand power bank, or simply leave it to Albedo to figure out a solution.

He had expected it would take at least ten days or half a month, but the result came by the afternoon.

Albedo nodded solemnly.

He handed the Abyss Eye to Ryen—it was a Pyro-element Abyss Eye.

Compared to the six eyes Ryen already wore on his belt, the energy in this one was even more intense, and, inexplicably, it exuded a divine aura.

It didn't feel like an Abyss Eye at all!

Rosalyne and Tartaglia furrowed their brows tightly, observing the slanted eye carefully.

They had seen many Abyss Eyes, and even possessed some themselves.

But none of theirs had this kind of sacred aura, nor such powerful energy attributes.

The magical energy seemed almost about to overflow!

It hardly resembled an Abyss Eye at all.

"How's this thing?"

Ryen examined it curiously and looked up at Albedo.

Albedo chuckled softly.

"It's quite the coincidence…"

"The research on this Abyss Eye wasn't particularly difficult; it's merely that the special mineral contained the corruption of the archons and channeled it.

Later, I tried reforging it with materials from that world, but nothing worked."

Albedo led everyone to a nearby anvil and pointed at it.

"Until… I discovered the Enchantment Book. It seemed capable of resonating with the Abyss Eye!

I thought, since weapons in Teyvat can be enchanted, and armor can be enchanted,

then the Abyss Eye, being man-made rather than a divine-born artifact like a Vision, could also be treated as a tool. For more chapters visıt novel[f]ire.net

If that's the case…"

Albedo didn't elaborate further, but everyone already understood his meaning.

"Enchanted an Abyss Eye?!"

Tartaglia's eyes widened in disbelief, a shiver running down his spine.

Albedo nodded solemnly.

"That's right! I have enchanted the Abyss Eye!"
