The signature on this ancient manuscript is Aymeric. In the first autobiography, he claimed to be a practitioner.

"I am Emmerich, a man of no name. My life has been ordinary and mediocre. The only thing that can be said to be extraordinary is that when I was 20 years old, I met Dr. Paracelsus. .”

"That year, I left my hometown and came to Switzerland through untold hardships. I was penniless and couldn't even afford a piece of bread. When I was about to starve to death on the street, a man handed me a piece of bread."

"The man told me that Dr. Paracelsus is going to give a speech in a school not far away. If I want to gain real freedom, I should go and listen to Dr. Paracelsus' speech."

"I followed that person's guidance and went to listen to Dr. Paracel's speech. At that moment, my soul was shocked."

......

"Alchemy can be combined with medicine."

"There was a printer whose leg was so badly infected that it was about to be amputated. In desperation, he begged his friends to call for Dr. Paracelsus, who resolutely abandoned pedantic empty talk, Save the printer's leg!"

Qiu Tingye also knew about this operation, which made Paracelsus famous throughout Europe.

Erasmus, the patient at the time, wrote to Paracelsus:

"You brought Frobenius, half of my life back from hell."

"Doctor Paracelsus is my belief, and I will believe in him as I believe in God!"

"But Doctor Paracelsus has been wandering all his life. I followed him, but when I got the news again, the doctor had passed away."

"However, Doctor Paracelsus left a last wish to live, and to fulfill his last wish, I will do anything!"

"I wrote these things to leave something for the great alchemist. His achievements should not be forgotten."

"Practice the last will of my faith, and I will practice for this goal all my life."

This notebook is written in French.

Apart from Aymeric's self-report, many things were not described in detail. After reading this part of the self-report, Qiu Tingye was a little curious, what was Paracelsus' last wish?

"Last wish? Could it be related to artificial life..." Kurosawa pondered.

"Maybe, but I don't think it's that simple. Aymeric's original honorific name was a doctor, but he later became a great alchemist. Could it be that the artificial life was successfully developed? Or..."

As a legendary alchemist, he is naturally conceited and proud. It is impossible for him not to be able to fulfill his own wish, which eventually became his last wish.

Either the last wish was really difficult, or when this wish was born from the bottom of Paracelsus' heart, he was already incapable of realizing it.

Behind the manuscript is some life of Paracelsus, a considerable part of which is not much different from what he found, but there are also some hidden things in it.

Paracelsus was born in Basel, Switzerland in 1493.

The whole of Europe at that time was ruled by Aristotle's ideology, believed in God, and feared the Holy See.

No one objected to every order issued by the Holy See, otherwise it would be treason, and even be considered a witch and wizard, and be severely punished.

In this context, Paracelsus was rarely able to oppose the fallacy of the Holy See, and was called an immortal and rebellious legendary figure by the medical circle at that time.

Paracelsus refused to study well in school. His classic quote is:

"People should read the books of nature and walk in the pages of nature."

In this way, Paracelsus traveled all over Europe, and also went to ancient India and Syria. He chatted with people from all over the world and gained all kinds of miscellaneous knowledge.

Later, he was appointed as a professor of medicine at the University of Basel, but he caused criticism because he gave lectures in German instead of Latin. Seuss, meaning he was greater than the Roman physician Sayles.

Moreover, he combined alchemy and medicine to form his own unique theory.

At that time, the theory of Paracelsus had a great influence, and even gradually rivaled that of Galen.His teachings were forbidden in universities, but they were very popular.

He is a Rabelaisian, unrestrained legend, whose mind is an inexhaustible source of various doctrines and theories, many of which contradict themselves.

Paracelsus has been doing a mysterious research, and people in later generations have rumors that this research is artificial life.

Ever since the Philosopher's Stone was created by Nicola Flamel, the lifelong pursuit of alchemists has been elevated to a new level. What they are pursuing now is artificial life.

Life is an impermanent field, and most people who explore life become people who believe in theology.

But Paracelsus is different. In his life, there has never been any sign of belief in God. He has always been a rebel who resisted.

Aymeric is indeed a loyal believer of Paracelsus and knows a lot of things. For example, he knows that Dr. Paracelsus is doing a research. Once successful, it will shock the entire alchemy community. Replacing Nicola Flamel at the top of Alchemy.

For a while, Paracelsus was not in a very good mood. It may be that the progress of the research was not going well, which made him feel a little irritable.

Then, Paracelsus went abroad for a trip, and after returning, he devoted himself to the laboratory and seldom went out.

Finally one day, Paracelsus walked out of the laboratory disheveled and shouted excitedly:

"I succeeded!"

Emmerich happened to see this scene, so he went forward to inquire, and then learned the news that could almost shock the whole world:

The artificial life experiment was a success!

As the lucky one who was the first to know about this, Paracelsus first invited him to see the results of the experiment, but after Aymeric went in, there was nothing in the laboratory.

With the pride of Dr. Paracelsus, he is not a liar, so the artificial life experiment must have been a success!

But when they entered the laboratory, Dr. Paracelsus was also shocked and confused.

Emmerich spread the news, and people came to him to confirm it, but there was no result. People didn't believe his statement.

But given that Paracelsus was a gifted physician, there wasn't much to say.

But the disaster of Doctor Paracelsus also came.

Because of his theory of combining alchemy with medical skills, his arrogant attitude and character, and even his rumor that Dr. Paracelsus had developed artificial life, all of these were under the pressure of the conservatives in Basel. On a stretched string.

At this time, the battle between the Holy See and the magic world has come to an end, and a balance is about to be reached. The subordinate churches and conservatives did not dare to be too arrogant.

But artificial life has violated the domain of God!

These people want to get rid of Paracelsus and hurry!

Fortunately, a friend broke the news to Paracelsus, and he escaped and started a wandering life again.

In the process of wandering, he did not forget his own truth, he is a lonely wanderer, a great alchemist!

His exploits are not acknowledged by anyone, but they remain.

When Aymeric received news from Dr. Paracelsus again, it was his death.

The man who returned with the news of Paracelsus' death also brought back Paracelsus' last wish.

Some of them who inherited Paracelsus' will can no longer survive in Europe. When Paracelsus goes to heaven, the Holy See will deal with them next!

They are getting out of here!

But there were still traitors among them. One person stole Dr. Paracelsus's most important notebook, which recorded his experimental records and precious materials and experiences!

When they found out, that person had already run away, but the rest of them had no choice but to leave as soon as possible.

If the traitor wants to report to the Holy See, all their lives will be lost, not to mention that they can no longer fulfill the last wish of the great alchemist is their greatest regret!

Emmerich's writing stopped here, presumably after that, he left with those who inherited the legacy.

Qiu Tingye closed the book and fell into deep thought.

"Now it seems that the next clue should be the stolen note." Kurosawa said flatly.

"Well, I've already found the owner of that note, but the old man has been refusing to open his mouth. He's even immune to Veritaserum. In addition, he's too old to die, and he has no descendants. Without close friends, there is no way to interrogate."

"In case of death, there will be no whereabouts of the notes."

And at that time, his focus was on Nicolas Flamel, so he ignored the notes for the time being, and let people take good care of the old man, at least not to die too early.

"There is another point. In order to create artificial life, Paracelsus was not progressing well at the beginning, but after he went abroad, he created artificial life when he came back." Kurosawa said with a frown.

In alchemy, artificial life is created by an experimental technique called Homonculuz, which creates humans through chemical reactions, puts raw materials, various herbs, and horse manure in flasks, and then seals them. Fermentation of horse manure is used to keep warm. After 40 days, a transparent humanoid object will appear, but there is no body now. It needs to add blood and maintain temperature in the next 40 weeks. After this process is completed, life can be produced.

"Moreover, no one has ever verified the authenticity of the artificial life that was created in the legend." Qiu Tingye also added.

"Where did you place that old man?"

"In the nursing home in Montreux, I sponsored him to recuperate as an ordinary entrepreneur. He is still alive, but he is not far from the end of his life."

"Then go find him."

"it is good."
