Merlin opened the glassware and saw a black mess of potion that smelled rancid.
"Is this a blood clotting agent?"
Merlin's face was a little strange, according to Master Hall's description, the blood clotting potion should be inky black, and there was a faint fragrance, how could the blood clotting potion he prepared now be like this?
"Give it a try!"
Although the coagulation potion prepared by Merlin seems to be a little different from the ordinary coagulation potions, if he doesn't try it, Merlin is not sure.
"Snort".
Merlin used a sharp dagger to slash his arm a few times, and only then did a shallow blood mark appear, which shows how good his physical fitness is now.
Drawing a wound on his arm, Merlin hurriedly applied the coagulation potion that had just been prepared to the wound on his arm, this coagulation agent is an external medicine, and it does not need to be swallowed, but it also reduces a lot of risks, and you can safely and boldly test this potion.
The effect of the coagulation potion is to stop the bleeding quickly, when Merlin applied the coagulation potion to his arm, he immediately felt a hot pain, and then, the wound on his arm quickly decayed at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye.
Merlin was shocked. Grab the bull by the horns. With a dagger. Fiercely picked out the blood clotting potion he had prepared from the wound, even though Merlin had strong willpower, but such pain still made him breathe cold air.
Looking at the mass of rotting flesh that fell to the ground, Merlin frowned, the blood coagulation potion had undoubtedly failed to be prepared.
Merlin groaned in his heart, as for the wound on his hand, it was not placed on Merlin's heart at all. With his current physical fitness, he will be fine in a few days.
What puzzled Merlin now was that he had obviously followed the steps of dispensing the potion, step by step, and strictly followed the prompts of the matrix number to control the dosage of the potionary materials, but why would the preparation fail?
"The most important thing in the preparation of pharmaceutical agents is to control the dosage of pharmaceutical materials and the steps of dispensing pharmaceutical agents!"
Merlin carefully recalled every step of his preparation of the potion, the dosage of the potion, and Merlin must have strictly followed the prompts of the matrix number. And with precise vessels, it is impossible to go wrong.
As for the steps of dispensing the pharmacy. Merlin looked at the Matrix Record, and there didn't seem to be any obvious error.
For a while, Merlin was a little entangled, if he didn't figure out the reason, he didn't dare to try to prepare the illusion potion at all, after all, some of the materials of the illusion potion were too precious, and the silver-haired old man's ring did not have much stock, so he really couldn't squander it at will.
Moreover, if you accidentally make a mistake and make a magic potion into a highly poisonous potion, that is the most terrible thing.
"Fire, by the way, it must be fire, in the process of heating, there are some unknown changes!"
A flash of inspiration flashed through Merlin's mind, in the process of dispensing potions, it often requires heating or cooling, or even more special means.
Perhaps, it was during the heating process that Merlin failed to grasp the heat, so it led to the failure of the preparation of the potion, just like some chefs, although all the steps were in place according to the recipe, there was still a gap in the taste of the dish, which is the reason for the heat.
This kind of heat is the caster's familiarity with the potion, practice makes perfect, which cannot be precisely controlled even by the matrix number.
Practice makes perfect, thinking of this, Merlin began to prepare the coagulation potion again, with the help of the matrix number, Merlin still has a natural advantage, and some other spellcasters, I am afraid that I don't know how many times Lu Dao has to prepare and how many materials are wasted, in order to have a deep understanding of the refining process of the potion.
But Merlin didn't need it at all, he just needed to follow the prompts of the matrix number every time and concentrate on mastering the heat.
Sure enough, although Merlin also failed the second time, the third time, he successfully prepared a blood clotting agent, with a success rate of as high as 30%.
Such a success rate is already quite terrifying, even if Master Hall has been studying pharmacy for so long, he may only be able to reach a thirty percent chance.
"Thirty percent of the chance, but it's acceptable!"
Merlin often felt that his energy was limited, that he could not devote all of his energy to apothery, and that he might be able to become a great master of apothecary, but not a great spellcaster.
For the next few days, Merlin spent a portion of his day preparing potions, familiarizing himself with the "heat" of the potions, so as to ensure that when it came time to officially prepare the magic potion, he would have a better chance of success.
It's also strange to say that since that time, after being crazy with Merlin, Lolinka has disappeared again, and I don't know what Lu Dao is busy with, although Merlin misses the madness of that night with Lolinka, but he didn't take the initiative to find Lolinka, but seized all the time to prepare potions and meditate on spiritual power.
After all, in a month's time, the exchange meeting in the Dark Spirit Realm will begin.
A few days later, Lolinka finally appeared in front of Merlin again, but at this time, Lolinka had already finished preparing for her time in the Dark Spirit Domain, and she would soon be sent out of the Dark Spirit Domain.
These are the few days when she and Merlin are at their best.
After a burst of passion between the two, Lorinka put her white arm on Merlin's body, exhaled like an orchid, and said softly: "Merlin, I will leave the Dark Spirit Realm in a few days, so there are still some things that must be told to you." My family is a small caster family, and the strongest person in the clan is only a third-level spellcaster, but he has been missing for many years, and there are very few first-level casters left. All potential children in the family will be sent to the caster organization......"
Lorinka carefully recounted some information about her family, which Merlin would not normally have access to. Therefore. He also listened very carefully.
Lorinka's family. It has also been passed down for hundreds of years, which can be regarded as a long inheritance, so it also has the ability to send potential children in the family to various spellcaster organizations to cultivate.
However, in the end, there are very few who can become a first-level spellcaster, and most of them are still like Lolinka, after returning to the family, they were abandoned by the family and could not get any cultivation resources, so they were lonely to death.
Perhaps a lot of people. Like Lorinka, before leaving, she will take a gamble and make every effort to win over some spellcasters who have the potential to become full members.
However, in the end, there are even fewer who can get what they want! As Lorlinka said, sometimes, you have to make a choice, right or wrong.
"Don't worry. I remember, the city of Toron. I'll get to your ...... as soon as I can."
Merlin said in a resolute tone.
Lolinka pursed her lips slightly, and said with a soft smile: "Okay, then I'll wait for you, a first-level six-series spellcaster, since the establishment of the Dark Spirit Domain, there has never even been a ......"
After Lolinka finished speaking, her eyes looked eagerly at Merlin, and the two became entangled again......
Three days later, Lorinka was sent out of the Dark Spirit Realm, and her seventy contribution points, as well as the 500,000 gold coins provided to her by her family, were all exchanged for contribution points and transferred to Merlin together.
At present, Merlin has one hundred and fifty contribution points, which is quite rich for a spellcaster who has just entered the Dark Spirit Realm for more than half a year.
Merlin therefore went to the Tower of Vientiane, and seemed to be inspired by the magic potion, Merlin went to look carefully for the potion that could increase mental power.
However, it is a pity that Merlin did not find a potion that could increase mental power, but found a few ancient potion recipes, and the effect recorded on them could increase some mental power.
It's just that the price made Merlin shake his head helplessly, each potion recipe actually requires at least five hundred contribution points, which is more expensive than many spell casting tools. However, what puzzled Merlin even more was that these potion formulas had been covered with a thick layer of dust, and no one seemed to care about them.
For this reason, Merlin also specifically asked the gray-robed mages in the Tower of Vientiane, although the price of these potion formulas is very expensive, but compared to entry-level spellcasters like Merlin, those spellcasters above level four in the dark spirit realm, a few hundred contribution points, should be nothing to them.
However, Merlin's answer was that there were no potion materials!
The potions that can increase mental power are basically unwanted, and the most fundamental reason is that the materials on the formulas of the elixirs are not available in the Dark Spirit Realm.
Not only are there no such materials in the Dark Spirit Realm, but even many of the surrounding spellcaster organizations do not have these materials.
The caster organization controls the place where a large number of precious materials grow, and because of this, gathering such a huge amount of resources, the caster organization can naturally become stronger and stronger, and even many caster families have to do everything possible to send potential children in the family to the caster organization.
If even the Dark Spirit Domain and several other spellcaster organizations don't have the materials for those potion recipes, then these potion recipes are basically chicken ribs.
For this reason, Merlin also carefully checked some of the materials needed for magic potions in the Tower of Vientiane, and sure enough, these materials are also very rare in the Tower of Vientiane, and the price of some of these materials is also very expensive.
This made Merlin directly feel the cruelest reality of the spellcaster, the shortage of resources!
No wonder Lorinka, even if she loses her freedom and becomes Merlin's squire, is willing to be in the Dark Spirit Realm, because in the outside world, all kinds of resources are very scarce, and those wandering mages are much worse than the casters in the spellcaster organization, in addition to not being able to learn systematic knowledge, the more important reason is that there are no resources required by the spellcaster.
"It seems that we must be cautious in preparing the illusion potion, and would rather postpone it for a while until we are thoroughly familiar with the various steps of preparing the illusion potion, and we must not easily fail to prepare the potion and waste the potion materials in vain. ”
Merlin has already begun to plan to prepare illusion potions, after all, the time for the Dark Spirit Realm Exchange Meeting is getting closer and closer, Merlin also needs to quickly increase his strength, and even he is ready to try to build a first-level spell "Raging Flame".
So, Merlin prepared several potions one after another, and with the help of the Matrix Number, he was ready to prepare the magic potion after he had mastered the method ......of dispensing the potion!
