Chapter 44: The Genius Apprentice
"Poof..."
"Poof..."
Another disgusting cloud of black gas emanated, and the experiment failed again.
Gordon was not annoyed as he watched the failed fusion turn into a pitch-black, solidified, disgusting-smelling liquid.
This is only the first fusion experiment of this body, and it is not surprising that the speed of the operation in his hand cannot keep up with the reaction speed in his brain, Gordon is not angry, he is just recalling the steps in the operation just now.
"Poof..."
"When the bone phosphorus powder is down, it should be possible to go down earlier..."
"Bloodthirsty tarantulas can have a few more body hairs..."
As Gordon continued to recall the details of the previous defeat, the rather rusty and stiff hand movements gradually became flexible.
......
"Snort... Snort..."
On the tall base of the labware, in a semi-circular transparent container, a thick fiery red liquid was constantly tumbling and bubbling, making a constant snorting sound.
Gordon on the side looked at the thick liquid of the salamander that was about to take shape in the container, but he frowned slightly.
"There was a small mistake in the previous steps, and I'm afraid it won't work out this time. ”
Sure enough, as soon as Gordon's idea fell, with the sudden increase in the temperature of the base in the semi-circular container, the fiery red thick liquid in the container suddenly turned into burnt black, and then a familiar and unpleasant smell almost came out.
"That's right!"
Gordon's face was happy, not only did the defeat in front of him not make him angry, but it verified the last slight mistake, which made him feel slightly happy.
"Then it's easy!"
After secretly spitting out this sentence, Gordon waved his hand to accurately sweep away the residue of the failed experiment on the table, and then his hand did not stop, and quickly prepared the next material.
Finally, after Gordon failed to refine the 'Salamander Potion' four times, the first bottle of the 'Salamander Potion' was finally successfully baked when it came to the fifth time.
When looking at the pale yellow liquid that emitted a scorching sulfur smell from volcanic lava, Gordon just calmly quickly ingested the drop of pale yellow liquid in the translucent container with spiritual power, and quickly put it into the glass vial prepared on the side.
Looking at the pale yellow 'Salamander Potion' in the bottle, the hard work finally saw the results, but Gordon didn't show as much excitement as before.
In fact, the reason is very simple, Gordon is not surprised by the natural result, and naturally he does not feel that there is anything to be happy about.
With the first success, the rest of the refinement was much simpler for Gordon.
Excluding the four materials that were wasted when the initial experiments verified some minor errors, the remaining twenty materials remained.
Gordon only had a distraction in the middle of the way, which caused one salamander potion to be discarded because it was not in good color, and the other nineteen materials were all successfully refined and full of color.
Looking at the two rows of nineteen pale yellow salamander potions in front of him, even Gordon's unusually firm will couldn't help but show a trace of exhaustion.
Although the current Gordon has reached the level of a second-level wizard apprentice in terms of real strength, in fact, Gordon's spiritual strength is only at the level of a first-level wizard apprentice, although he is not far from the spiritual strength of a second-level wizard apprentice.
With the mental strength and control of a first-level apprentice, refining a salamander potion requires full concentration, let alone refining so many potions in a row.
Therefore, after Gordon simply finished processing the successfully refined salamander potion at this time, he hurriedly arranged a simple early warning circle at the door and window.
He hurried back to the wooden bed, closed his eyes and meditated.
Although the sea-like mental sleepiness and tiredness made Gordon feel that as long as he slept this time, not only would he be much more comfortable, but he would definitely be able to recover well after waking up.
But Gordon still managed to hold back his sleepiness, closed his eyes and quickly entered meditation.
As for whether to choose a comfortable and steady increase in strength, or a painful insistence on rapid strength, Gordon didn't even have to hesitate for a moment, he would only choose the latter.
When he woke up the next day, Gordon simply cleaned up the experimental utensils and debris on the table in his lodgings, ate a few things, and then resumed his meditation.
As for not having a magic stone on his body now, Gordon is not in a hurry to take the salamander potion to the 'Tallinn Dwarves' boutique weapon shop.
Gordon, who was able to successfully refine the Salamander Potion from the first enchantment test in just a day or two, was a bit appalling to everyone.
Not to mention that Gordon had successfully refined nineteen salamander potions at one time this time, if the news was spread, it would be a really bad thing.
So after thinking about it for a while, Gordon decided to start gradually taking two salamander potions in a week, and go to the Tallinn Dwarven Weapon Shop to exchange some magic stones, and change some materials to continue refining.
"Twenty-four salamander potion materials, it only took a week or so to successfully refine one or two parts of the finished salamander potion. ”
"For wizarding apprentices who take a month or so to get started and successfully refine their first finished 'Apothecary' or 'Rune Enchantment' in two or three months.
With a slight comparison, Gordon's reputation as a genius in 'Rune Enchantment' can slowly spread within a certain academy.
In this way, it does not seem that Gordon's talent for 'rune enchantment' is too exaggerated, and it can also provide great convenience for Gordon's future development plans.
These are all things that Gordon slowly learned after coming to the 'Godsling Chamber of Secrets' academy, and it is not a secret.
......
The plans were all good, but there was a little bit more than Gordon had expected.
Gordon's body gradually became stronger after this period of recuperation.
This was a good thing, but then the amount of food he ate every day was increasing, and the food that Gordon had prepared at his residence was a little short of enough time for the next week.
After a hundred secrets, he finally succeeded in refining the salamander potion on the fifth day.
Gordon, who was short of food, had to take a salamander potion to the Tallinn Dwarves' boutique weapons shop in exchange for two magic stones.
One magic stone continued to be exchanged for a salamander potion refining ingredient under the astonished gaze of the Tallinn dwarf Ilta, and another magic stone was turned into a certain amount of wizarding ingredients.
Gordon's 'embarrassment' food crisis has been alleviated.
Next, with Gordon's deliberately increasing success rate in refining salamander potions, he went to the Tallinn Dwarven Boutique Weapon Shop more frequently.
The name of Gordon, the genius apprentice of 'Rune Enchantment', also began to spread slowly.
