The refining of the tears of Cenarius, the antidote to potions, was a complex and tedious task.

Although it is very difficult to operate, especially after concentrating the workload of the original three people on one person, the difficulty of operation is increased geometrically, and it is much more exciting from a mathematical point of view, but it is not as eye-catching as spell duels, because it has no dazzling light and shadow effects.

From the perspective of a bystander like Ji Ruoxi, it was just to watch Norman go around there for most of the night, far less exciting than the battle of the forbidden spell in Jebel Danner.

She couldn't even say when it would end.

She only finally saw that Norman had stopped all the work at hand, and finally stopped wandering, and instead, he looked at one of the small crucibles on the countertop, with a solemn expression on his face, but his eyes relaxed.

This should be the end, right?

Ji Ruoxi thought so, and his eyes subconsciously followed to look into the crucible that Norman was staring at.

She saw that there was now a small puddle of liquid in the cauldron.

To be honest, although Ji Ruoxi was hit by Cenarius's tears, she really didn't know how and when she was hit, otherwise she might not have been hit, so she still doesn't know what the potion of Cenarius's tears looks like, but there is an inherent set of traditional stereotypes in her mind: in her traditional stereotype, the so-called potion should be the kind of weird, It's always a cloudy green or black liquid, and it also has an unpleasant smell, bubbles, and so on.

Some of the stories her father told her, whether they were dragons or humans, were not described in this way when they occasionally involved potions?

So if she hadn't known that Norman was making potions, she wouldn't have been able to associate the puddle of liquid in the cauldron in front of her with the word "potion": it wasn't green or black, but almost transparent and colorless, and it looked very clear and not cloudy at all.

If it weren't for the puddle of liquid that often glowed with colorful light, she would have wondered if Norman had spent most of the night refining a puddle of water.

As for the smell, she was a little far away, and she couldn't smell it very clearly. Moreover, in the previous refining process, the things that Norman refined produced any smell, and now the room has been filled with all kinds of smells, even if she gets close, she probably can't smell what the smell of that thing will be.

"Success?"

Ji Ruoxi stared at the liquid tightly and asked.

She looked nervous.

Norman understands that after all, not only Chen Qinghe needs this thing, but she also needs this thing to save her life, and it is normal to be nervous.

It's just that Norman didn't know how to answer her.

"It should ...... It worked...... Right?"

Hearing Norman's uncertain answer, Ji Ruoxi finally took his eyes off the liquid for a while and looked at him, his eyes full of questions.

Norman smiled bitterly, his smile was very tired, "In terms of material steps, it was a success, but this thing is also the first time I have refined it, and I don't know if it has any effect." ”

As he spoke, the distribution of spiritual power in his brain was also rapidly adjusted: the spiritual power in the potion refining that had broken through the joint operation of 100 spiritual powers during the previous peak period had all been adjusted and liberated. Among them, 36 were assigned to external reactions, body control and other departments, and the spiritual power in these departments was withdrawn and entered the meditation space for meditation; in addition, 28 of those spiritual powers also entered the meditation space together and meditated together; in the end, most of the remaining ones entered a dormant state, and the live broadcast room was temporarily put on for a while.

If he could, Norman actually wanted to put most of his mental power into a dormant state, he had maintained a long period of high-intensity mental tension in the previous potion refining work, and he obviously felt that a lot of mental power was already very tired, but even if his mental power was exhausted now, he would also squeeze out the last bit of value of them, and use it to take over the daily part of the work that was not very intensive, in exchange for those spiritual power that still had a lot of spare power to generate magic power in the meditation space, because the magic power in his body was almost empty now- The Templar Order's calculations are very accurate, he has just broken through the magic power of 48 squares, which is just enough to support the entire antidote refining is completed, and at most less than 1 square remainder.

Without his magic power, most of his kung fu was wasted, which made him very insecure, so even though most of his mental power was already very tired, he still only gave a small part of the vacation, which is why he looked tired now.

"I hope it works......"

Norman muttered as he carefully bottled the finished product in front of him - even the preservation of this antidote had certain special requirements, but compared to its refining process, these steps were quite simple.

After filling the bottle, Norman didn't know what to do.

According to what Lancelot just reported, it is the second half of the night, and there is still more than an hour before the first bell rings in the church, and it is obviously impossible to enter the City Lord's Mansion at this time, so this medicine can't be tried by Chen Qinghe to see if it works.

Ji Ruoxi watched Norman's entire bottling process from the sidelines, until Norman filled the puddle of liquid in the crucible without a drop left, and then she spoke again.

"How many are there?"

The antidote was an opaque porcelain bottle, with a slender mouth and a large belly, the size of a palm, the mouth of which had been tightened with a special hardwood stopper, and was now carefully placed by Norman in a small box stuffed with flannel.

After hearing Ji Ruoxi's question, he paused for a moment, and then replied, "Theoretically, it's enough for the two of you." ”

What he now uses to control the daily operation of his body is those mental powers that have been working at high intensity for a long time, and after excessive overdraft, these mental powers are already very tired and their efficiency has greatly decreased, so he can't quite understand Ji Ruoxi's intention to ask this for a while.

However, Ji Ruoxi immediately told him her intention of asking.

"If you're not sure if it's working...... Then I guess I can give it a try first. ”

Only then did Norman realize: she was volunteering to be a guinea pig.

This made him look at Ji Ruoxi twice, only to see that the other party was looking at him calmly, and the meaning in her eyes had already been revealed that she was completely ready.

To tell the truth, the little girl standing in front of him was more than a hundred years old, but he could never treat the other party as a centenarian, as soon as he closed his eyes, as if he could see the scene that night, this little girl standing in front of his naked body staring at him and watching the scene without stopping.

That kind of curiosity, interest, and a little bit of excitement, no matter how you look at it, she is a minor girl, and according to the rules of the dragon family, she is indeed a minor girl, so Norman has always looked at her according to the standards of a minor girl, and Ji Ruoxi's impulsiveness and dependence on him during this period are also in line with this image setting in his mind.

But now the Ji Ruoxi in front of him is a little different.

She seems to have grown up a little.

Suffering makes dragons grow!

Norman sighed in his heart, but he didn't realize that he was only an eighteen-year-old boy himself.

Then Norman opened his mouth to reject her: "No. ”

"First of all, the dose of potion in you is obviously on the low side, and the number of episodes you have only had once so far. The reaction to potions is mild, and correspondingly, the reaction to the antidote is mild, and your experience is not obviously effective in judging the success of the antidote. ”

"Secondly, his reaction to the potion was so severe that he was terminally ill. Although theoretically these doses are enough for both of you, for a serious condition like his, I don't know if you will need more than the normal dose to cure, so to be on the safe side, you have to leave a spare amount. ”

"To sum up, so don't even think about trying it for him first. ”

Norman said at the end, the words paused for a moment, and finally smiled bitterly, and revealed to her: "And even if you try it out and it doesn't work? This is already the antidote I made exactly according to the antidote making method explained by Stanley, if this doesn't work, it means that he is really bold, and he dared to lie to me in that situation at that time, and we don't have time to find or study the correct antidote formula now, and he can't afford to delay it anymore." The only thing we can do now is pray that Stanley didn't lie to me and that the antidote did work. ”

After Norman finished speaking, Ji Ruoxi stopped talking and stood quietly.

Norman didn't care about her, and after packing the antidote, he began to pack up the things on the scene.

The ending is not as careful as when arranging, you need to pay careful attention to the position of each furnishing, it is completely individual work, Norman's physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people, so it is very quick to clean up, and it doesn't take a while to clean up the scene, and the previously congested space is suddenly spacious.

Then Norman sat down by the stove.

It stands to reason that with his current mental state, he should go to sleep and rest, but now he needs to constantly meditate to generate magic power, and second, he is concerned about the success of the antidote, waiting for dawn to go to the City Lord's Mansion to find Chen Qinghe to experiment with the antidote, so he really can't sleep now.

But it's not a problem to sit and wait for dawn.

Norman looked left and right, and simply went to the side and crouched down, picking up the pile of materials that Shival had found for him.

When it gets dawn in a while, it's best to have a reason to go to the City Lord's Mansion, so let's just take the weapon out first, and make it a reason to enter the City Lord's Mansion.

If it is to refine the mana pool 1.0, many of the materials in it are not only precious, but also rare, and collecting them will not only alarm the attention of those who care, but also may not be able to collect them anywhere else except in a material master like Delvik, but after the improvement of the Templar Order, the materials of the mana pool 2.0 are much cheaper than the 1.0 version, and it is better to collect.

However, the materials of Mana Pool 2.0 are better to collect, which is also relatively speaking, which can be seen from the goods sent by Shival:

chlorite, glacial crystals, pyroxene, bart mapoca, eupyroxene......

Most of these goods are the materials that Norman has listed on the list to cover up and build a few weapons at random, and the Mana Pool 2.0 requires very few related materials.

However, Norman didn't plan to make a mana pool in his current state, so he thought about it for a while, selectively took out a few ores, and moved them to the furnace one by one, ready to start refining weapons.

Norman also has a lot of experience in refining weapons, and he is much more familiar with refining potions. And after such a moment of meditation, his magic power had recovered several ways, enough for him to cast some necessary spells to refine the weapon.

So Norman pulled the stove and began to refine it.

This time the refining was a little different from the last time: last time, Norman basically used iron to refine his tools, and the materials were relatively simple, but this time there were many different high-level materials, and he could thoroughly try the refining of the alloy steel taught by the Templar Order.

As for the production process, it is basically the same as last time, first iron, then magic steel, and then under the guidance of the Knights Templar, they continue to try to make various alloy steels from various ores.

And so, in the midst of Norman's beating, before it was dark, the first bells of the church struck.
