Chapter Twenty-Nine: Alchemy Elixir
Yin Shengzhi expressed his gratitude, although he didn't know what the so-called mage assistant badge was for!
"Come with me, then!" said Greene, leading him into the depths of the shop.
This Broome antique shop is not only an antique shop, but also one of the largest antique sales channels in the Roba continent.
In other words, the transaction volume here is not very large, and the number of people who know about this antique shop in such a remote location is actually not too large.
However, the scale of the entire antique store is huge, covering an area of more than several kilometers, and most of it is a warehouse. There are some of them that even Yin Shengzhi has never come......
This time, Ge Lin took Yin Shengzhi to a place he had never been to before, and it looked more like an enemy in a workshop, with various machines large and small.
But there is no one, just like a factory that has quietly shut down.
Yin Shengzhi shrugged: "All of them can be unraveled!"
But I saw a cupboard full of all kinds of potions, stacked in test tubes or glass bottles.
So when I walked in, I suddenly felt like a chemistry laboratory.
Yin Shengzhi had only seen a small blue bottle of these elixirs......
Oh no, the official name of this potion is called a mental power recovery potion.
"Mental Power Restoration Drug", "Minor Injury Healing Drug", "Mental Power Stimulation Medicine", "Mental Power Enhancement Medicine"......
And all the other potions that Yin Shengzhi had never heard of or seen were labeled and lay quietly in the cupboard.
"There are so many potions?" Yin Shengzhi looked amazed.
"These potions are all useful and sell well. Well, in fact, these things are even more lucrative than antiques!" Greene said with a smile.
"However, you Dongqi have a saying that medicine is three poisons, and according to the mages, these medicines are poisonous and side effects. It's not good for you, so neither you nor Bob have used it!"
He explained, "Some potions look useful, such as this cultivation acceleration potion.
It can make your mental power more active, so that your mental power has a faster growth rate, but the sequelae will also be very terrible.
Theoretically, such a bottle of medicine can speed up your practice by three times in a month, and it can also reduce your life expectancy by three years. How about it, do you want to try it?"
Yin Shengzhi immediately thanked Bumin, he naturally had high skills in cultivating spiritual power, and he was much more skilled than the mage's training. There is no need for this so-called potion!
At the same time, Yin Shengzhi became more and more convinced that after the last test in Hot Spring Town, he was even more trusted, so that not only was he able to access more advanced mage knowledge, but now he was even able to access the secrets of Broome's antique shop!
Maybe...... It's still a test!
"Are these potions made by His Excellency Master Alvin himself?"
Greene smiled: "You have forgotten that Your Excellency Alvin is not only a high mage, but also an alchemist!"
Yin Shengzhi didn't forget, he just ignored it. I have been studying with Master Alvin for so long, and every time it is mage knowledge, alchemy has never been involved.
Didn't see Bob, or even how Mage Alvin got it himself. After a long time, Yin Shengzhi almost ignored that Master Alwen was still an alchemist.
"Can I learn alchemy?" Yin Shengzhi asked excitedly.
Ge Lin smiled politely: "Yes, after all, the demand for various potions is still quite large......
Your Excellency Alvin still has so much to do, and you can't always make potions here, and it's up to you to come.
Of course, if you don't have anyone to pay your debts. Then you have to honestly make potions here, work to pay off your debts, and you have to do at least ten years to pay off your debts!"
Yin Shengzhi listened, but whistled easily: "It seems that the mage assistant is really a promising profession, and he can earn 30,000 gold coins a year! I used to be a soldier, what is my salary for a year, less than ten gold coins?"
Yin Shengzhi used to be in the guard battalion of the Second Division, and his military salary was not low, three or four times more than that of ordinary soldiers, as high as eight yuan per month.
However, it is only a military salary of ninety-eight silver dollars in a year, which is really not enough for ten gold coins.
Therefore, the salary of a mage's apprentice is extremely appalling!
Of course, this is just talk.
Yin Shengzhi didn't think that other places could give his assistant a salary of 30,000 gold coins a year!
Yin Shengzhi was originally just thinking about how to help the Tianyuan Sect buy a batch of sensitive materials, but he didn't expect that there would be such an opportunity.
Alchemy, in a sense, is more important to Yin Shengzhi than the knowledge of spells.
Greene smiled slightly, "Do you want to try alchemy?"
"Do you start by refining those potions?" Yin Shengzhi asked again.
"Yes, Lord Alvin has told you, he has prepared a workbench for you!"
The so-called workbench is a large table in a separate quiet room, and the most striking thing is that there is a fist-sized round magic crystal on the table, which looks like a crystal ball.
Yin Shengzhi had noticed before that Mage Alvin and Bob both had this kind of round magic crystal by their side, and they could even cast dreams out.
And what is the use of this magic crystal on the workbench in front of me?
However, Yin Shengzhi soon knew, when he put his consciousness into this magic crystal, he suddenly felt that his consciousness had become much stronger, so that it almost had the effect of a microscope, and he could see the microscopic state of the world.
And because it's conscious observation, it's definitely much stronger than mere gaze.
Ge Lin smiled slightly, put down a piece of the magic crystal plate in front of the round magic crystal, and suddenly the crystal structure of the entire magic crystal version appeared in front of Yin Shengzhi's eyes again.
It's like when he was in the library of the East Coast Military Academy, the Archmage of Sidrik once put out the internal structure of the magic crystal.
And this time, Yin Shengzhi once again saw the internal structure of the magic crystal. There is a wonderful harmony, mysterious and stable, as if looking at the cosmic starry sky, which makes people intoxicated.
"This is the blank Magic Crystal, you can try to see its internal structure, and learn to etc......h in it later," Greene laughed.
Yin Shengzhi quickly regained his mental power, and he knew that he should now learn to make potions.
Ge Lin smiled with satisfaction, Yin Shengzhi was very conscious, and he didn't need to finish the reminder at all.
"Making potions is the foundation of alchemy, especially the production of these potions, which is even simpler. You see, the prescriptions are here!
You take your time, I can't teach you anything else, in short, don't worry about wasting raw materials, even if you try more, you will always practice!"
Greene said, bending down and bowing, and quickly withdrew.
And Yin Shengzhi did not return the gift this time, but quickly fell into this prescription.
"Hey, among these potions, you actually have to add magic crystal powder...... The price can't be lower for sure......"
Yin Shengzhi muttered, the formula for the most basic spiritual power recovery potion in his hand.
Among them, it is only three kinds of dispensing, plus magic crystal powder.
Although the accuracy requirements are quite high, it is not a perversion.
With the accuracy of various precision measuring instruments on the workbench, it can be achieved.
The point is that when refining the medicine, one needs to visualize a pattern, which is a complex pattern written in the prescription, some like a complex flower. Then it is combined with the spell to make the final potion work.
Yin Shengzhi began to experiment twice, but he was unsuccessful, and in the end, the potion either trembled violently in his hand and exploded, or he snorted and turned into black mist.
Obviously, the formulation failed.
However, soon, when Yin Shengzhi noticed the round magic crystal, he suddenly had an understanding.
The pattern he had visualized was thrown into the potion through the round magic crystal, and the entire potion suddenly began to produce a complex change, and it was immediately successfully formulated.
Finally turn decay into magic!
What was originally just some ordinary medicine, under this change, turned into a light blue, mysterious potion with a little bit of light.
"Spirit interferes with matter, spirit interferes with matter!" Yin Shengzhi muttered to himself.
Through this round magic crystal, Yin Shengzhi experienced the wonder of spiritual interference matter for the first time!
In his original world, even if he used spirit to interfere with matter in such a preliminary manner, it was at least the culmination of the yin god and the beginning of turning yin into yang.
And in the previous life in the dream, Yin Sheng's capital had not yet cultivated to that extent!
Next, Yin Shengzhi began to make a crazy configuration, succeeding five times and failing three times.
But at this time, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this pattern was very familiar, and suddenly shouted: "Hey, isn't this pattern the first labyrinth?"
Yes, it's the first maze exercise, but it's just abstract and simplified.
No wonder visualizing this pattern goes so smoothly!
Yin Shengzhi vaguely knew that everything he had learned before was useful, and it might be the basis of the knowledge of the senior mage.
Next, Yin Shengzhi's success rate in dispensing potions became higher and higher, and he succeeded three times in a row, without missing once.
"It's really a genius, and I mastered it so quickly...... It's just the simplest potion recipe though!"
Alvin and Green, who were in the other room, could easily see Yin Shengzhi's movements from the magic crystal, and couldn't help but admire slightly.
"With this kind of qualification, even if you are an Oriental, you are qualified to step into the ranks of my mages! No wonder even His Excellency Alvin is a talent...... "Greene said.
Alvin also sighed softly: "Yes, as long as he doesn't die halfway, he will definitely become an archmage in the future...... Maybe even an alchemy archmage!"
Yin Sheng successfully prepared seven bottles of potion in a row, and when it came to the eighth bottle, he made a mistake again, and the potion in his hand burned violently and turned into black mist.
Just now, I was in a trance, and my mental power was too much to consume. At this point he stopped, knowing that he could not go on.
