The black-robed old man's face also softened slightly, and he said coldly: "Buton, we came this time to buy some potion materials. ”

"Potion materials?"

A smile appeared on Mage Buton's face, and then he continued, "Ciel, what potion materials do you need?" I can see if there are any of these materials first, I have also accumulated a lot of potion materials in the past few years. ”

The black-robed old man pondered for a while, but still said, "What I need is purple stone powder." ”

Merlin also spoke: "The potion materials I need are a bit complicated, such as blueberries, honeysuckle, ......."

Mage Buton glanced at Merlin in surprise, then his expression became solemn, he looked at the black-robed old man and said, "Ciel, who is this mage?"

"Budon, Master Merlin can be trusted, you don't have to worry. ”

The black-robed old man naturally knew what Master Dao Buton was referring to, so he said coldly.

"It turned out to be Master Merlin, and I have some purple stone powder that Hill needs. However, some potion materials such as blueberries that Master Merlin needs are too precious, and I don't have them, so I can only take you to some places to buy them, but the price is very expensive, so Master Merlin must be prepared. ”

Merlin nodded, when he came to the Floating City, the old man in the black robe had already briefly explained the matter of the Floating City, trading in the Floating City is usually with elemental crystals, but some precious things are traded in a barter way.

Merlin also had a lot of elemental crystals, but he still preferred to barter to see if there were any of these potion materials before making plans.

Merlin nodded. Master Buton stood up. He said to the black-robed old man and Merlin, "Let's go." Follow me!"

Then, Master Buton left the courtyard, and his alchemy monster was also with him, close to Master Button, and if there was any trouble, the alchemy monster would block the attack for Master Buton.

Following Master Buton through many alleys, the crowd gradually thinned out, and the surroundings seemed very quiet. Merlin did not let his guard down, but instead came to the black-robed old man's side and asked in a low voice, "Master Hill, is this Master Buton trustworthy?"

When Merlin first arrived in the Floating City, he was very unfamiliar with everything in the Floating City, and he didn't believe much in Master Buton.

The black-robed old man looked deeply at the back of Master Buton in front of him, and then said in a low voice: "Me and Buton are just a little different in philosophy. But we've had decades of friendship. I saved his life. He has also defused many crises for me, so Briton can still be trusted. ”

Merlin nodded, he could see that although the black-robed old man also had some dissatisfaction with Master Buton, and even the two had quarreled very much before, it did not affect the friendship between the two.

Soon, Master Buton led Merlin and the black-robed old man to a secluded courtyard.

The gate in the courtyard was closed, and Master Buton immediately shouted, "Master Vladdy!"

After a long time, an old voice came from the room: "Master Buton, I am dispensing potions, come in by yourself." ”

Mage Buton showed a hint of helplessness on his face, and said to the black-robed old man and Merlin: "Let's go, let's go in first, Master Vladdy is like this, studying some special potions all day long, although he is not a high level of spellcaster, only a first-level spellcaster, but he is very talented in pharmacy, he is a pharmacist himself, and he can prepare the potions he needs." He should have a lot of precious potion materials here, and if Mage Merlin wants it, he can go and discuss it with Mage Vladdy. ”

Master Buton explained to Merlin as he walked, and then he quickly pushed the door open, and everyone immediately entered the somewhat dimly lit room.

As soon as he entered the room, Merlin smelled a very pungent smell, faintly flickering with firelight, and let out a slight "snort" sound.

Merlin then discovered that in a corner of the room, there was a spellcaster with messy hair and a scruffy beard, fiddling with many glassware on the ground.

Merlin was familiar with these glassware, which were necessary for the preparation of potions, but if he looked closely, Merlin found that these glassware were not very accurate, and they looked very rough compared to the glassware he had exchanged for in the Tower of Vientiane in the Dark Spirit Realm.

The person who was dispensing the potion was Mage Vladdy, who had just shouted out.

Mage Vladdy was really fanatical about potions, and even when Merlin and the others came behind him, he didn't pay attention to it, but stared at the green slime in the glassware.

This green slime potion, with a trace of hot gas, seemed to have just been heated.

Merlin saw that on the table, there was a blank piece of paper, scribbling some records haphazardly, Merlin took a closer look, and found that this was a detailed step of the preparation of the potion, which should be the potion that Master Vladdy was concocting.

The name of this potion is called alkaline earth potion, and the specific effect of Merlin is not clear, but according to some of the potion steps noted by Vladdy on the white paper, Merlin found that it is really very detailed, and according to such steps, if there is not the slightest mistake, there should be a great deal of certainty in preparing the potion.

"Bang".

Suddenly, there was a soft sound, and a burst of white smoke suddenly came out of the green potion in the glassware, and then it exploded in an instant, shattering the glassware, and the flying green slime dyed Vladdy's black robe green, which looked extremely funny.

"Damn, it failed again, what the hell is going on? I've made it five times, how come it failed every time?"

Master Vladdy grabbed his hair with both hands, and kept tugging, looking very annoyed, as if he didn't pay attention to Merlin and the others.

Seeing Master Vladdy's appearance, Master Buton couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Ciel, Master Merlin, let's leave first, if Master Vladdy doesn't successfully prepare this potion, he won't pay attention to anyone." ”

It seems that Master Buton is already well aware of the strange temper of Master Vladdy, this is a madman who dispenses potions, almost crazy, and will not pay attention to anything but potions.

Seeing the appearance of Mage Vladdy, Merlin thought of Mage Hall in the Dark Spirit Realm, and it seemed that the casters who studied the potion were all so crazy, and they would never stop until they successfully prepared a pair of potions.

Thinking of this, Merlin immediately activated the matrix number, and let the matrix number record the preparation steps of the alkaline earth potion, and then analyze it according to the proportion of the potion materials.

With the control of the matrix number, the dispensing potion will become very simple, just need to master the heat, so, after the matrix number recorded all the steps of the alkaline earth potion and the proportion of the potion materials, Merlin walked behind Vladdy, and did not listen to Master Braidon to leave, but watched Master Vladdy dispense the potion very attentively.

Master Vladdy is quite fast in dispensing potions, and he is almost familiar with every ingredient and every step, so he is also very familiar with the preparation, very fast.

"Wait, Mage Vladdy, if you continue to prepare like this, you will definitely fail!"

Merlin was standing behind Mage Vladdy, and he suddenly spoke.

"Huh, you know how to make potions?"

Mage Vladdy actually turned his head slowly, his face was ugly, and said coldly.

Master Buton was about to say something, but was stopped by the black-robed old man. The black-robed old man naturally knew that after Merlin entered the Dark Spirit Domain, he had also studied pharmacy for a period of time, and the last time he prepared purple stone powder, Merlin personally prepared it in front of him, and the success rate of dispensing potions was also very high.

Now it seems that Merlin must have discovered that there was something wrong with Vladdy's dispensing of the potion.

Seeing Master Vladdy's obviously ugly expression, Merlin smiled slightly, and said in a calm tone, "I know a little bit about the preparation of potions." ”

Instead, Master Vladdy sneered, dancing with his hands, and said with a very excited expression: "Do you know how long I have been preparing this potion? Do you know how much effort I have spent on this potion? I have done the most accurate every step of it, the proportion of each material, you just came here, and you have seen some of the steps I scribbled on the paper to prepare the potion, you can know how inappropriate I am in preparing the potion?"

Mage Vladdy looked very excited, it seemed that although he studied potions, he was almost crazy, but he was not unconcerned about everything around him, at least, what Merlin did after coming to the house, Mage Vladdy was clear.

Faced with Mage Vladdy's questioning, Merlin didn't argue, but said with a slight smile: "Every step of Mage Vladdy is correct, and the proportion of potion materials is also very good. However, the reason why you still can't successfully prepare the potion is actually not your fault Master Vladdy, but the error of the glassware that prepared the potion, the tool is wrong!"

"Huh, you mean, these treasures of mine aren't precise enough?"

Mage Vladdy pointed to the glassware on the ground, a strange look on his face.

Merlin nodded and said, "Yes, it is these utensils that are not accurate, so it caused the preparation of alkaline earth potions to fail, if Master Vladdy doesn't believe it, you can use my utensils to prepare it first and see if it works?"

Merlin's hand flipped slightly, and he took out a beautiful glass test tube from the ring, which Merlin had exchanged from the Tower of Vientiane, it was very beautifully made, and the measurement was very accurate, and it also passed the test of the matrix number, which was far from being comparable to the rough glassware that Master Vladdy had found from nowhere.

Suspiciously, Master Vladdy took the glass tube from Merlin's hand and began to re-dispense the potion. (To be continued......)
