Chapter 95 The Source
In essence, the extraction process of the potion is to refine and extract the complete "source quality model" from the extraordinary organs of these monsters. It is no wonder that Mr. Hilliard said that no matter how large the material is, there will be no excess, because the potion material The larger the model, the more complete the model and the fewer parts that need to be completed later.
"It looks like liquid gold, but it's actually more expensive than gold."
Staring at the golden crystal liquid in the bottle, Ian couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "No... How can gold compare to it?"
A potion of the first energy level needs at least two to three parts of monster materials, and one part of monster materials needs more than one hundred, or even more than two hundred talers.
In other words, except for the lowest inheritance of 'Wavebreaker', a general potion material would add up to about four hundred to six hundred talers.
The sand armor apprentice, as the highest inheritance, only needs two potion materials, just because Ian used the totem main material at the peak of the second energy level.
If it is a normal first-level monster, it usually needs five types. In other words, the "raw material" alone needs 800 talers to start, and may need more than 1,500 talers at most, which is twice the normal inheritance.
Not to mention that the potion formula of the Fudo Fortress series is a priceless treasure, and the alchemist who can prepare this kind of complex potion is also expensive.
An ordinary fisherman in Port Harrison, counting the free fish, only earns about a dozen talers a year, and his uncle Oceana, counting the subsidy, only earns a little over twenty talers.
That is to collude with the natives, resell supplies, and accept bribes in order to save so much money and sleeping powder.
It is true that Harrison Port is located in the frontier area, and the value of the taler is a bit abnormal... But according to the teacher, even in the capital of the central province of the empire, a decent staff job costs more than ninety and one hundred talers all year round. , and even fewer workers, only in their early sixties.
Potion materials alone require nearly ten years’ full salary of ordinary workers—not to mention the more expensive correct potion formula, which is almost equal to the material price of an alchemist’s preparation compensation. The previous adaptation to the potion Training costs, the price given to the virtual seed, the teacher's salary, and possible failures.
If you want to train a superhuman of the first energy level, you need at least 4,500 talers or more!
This must not fail. If it fails, including rest and new potions, the cost may approach seven thousand talers.
The more failures, the more costs.
But even 4,500 talers are already heavier than him!
"This small bottle of potion is made of Thaler silver coins that are heavier than mine...Because it is the top inheritance of sand armor apprentices, it may be several times heavier!"
Don't talk about Ian's emotion at this time.
At this moment, Hilliard has begun to extract the source material structure in the crystal bone of the reef-eating sea otter.
Silver streamers lit up in the old knight's eyes again, and a circle of pale golden source quality radiance lit up in his hands. This radiance intersected with the silver-blue electric arcs of the surrounding psionic fields, forming a spherical shape between his palms. Halo arc edge.
While strands of silver-white source matter structure seeped out from the crystal bone located in the center of the halo, they condensed into a mass of phase matter similar to the source matter crystal fluid in the crystal bottle.
In the vision of foreseeing, the pure blue source quality is refined, and the original dark blue crystal bone becomes pure white, no longer a sublimation material, but an ordinary metal-containing spine.
Ian couldn't help but look sideways at this situation—this move is very similar to what Elder Purdue once said, "made without equipment".
Theoretically speaking, it is a technique that can only be used by those who are both a master alchemist and an ascendant above the third energy level... But here comes the problem, Hilliard's original strength must be above the third energy level, but he It is true that he is not very proficient in alchemy... well, basically it can be said that he is only at the junior high school level.
Now, however, Hilliard's technique of manipulating the source quality to refine it without equipment is incomparably proficient, it's unbelievably proficient!
"Did you hide your hand...or did you say you've laid hands on people before, but you haven't learned systematic alchemy?"
He muttered softly, and Ian also knew why Hilliard chose to sigh.
Although the spiritual energy field here is huge, it is extremely stable. Even Hilliard, a sublimator who is not good at thunder, can stably attract the power of the field, induce thunder, and assist him in the processing of monster materials. refining.
"Well, the production is about to be completed. The potion of Shakai Apprentice is not difficult to make. You can actually do it. It's just an ordinary extraction process. However, there is currently no professional alchemy equipment. For the sake of quality, I can only do it myself."
Putting the silver-white source fluid into the crystal bottle, Hilliard used his own source to promote the flow and fusion of the source in the bottle. He nodded solemnly to Ian: "Get ready, remember to use the 'source' to accept , don’t really drink it into your stomach.”
"I understand." Ian nodded slightly.
In addition to the source material structure, the materials of potions usually contain a large amount of toxic and non-toxic inorganic materials, ranging from heavy metals to various stones, not to mention all kinds of strange herbs and messy materials. It is absolutely impossible for the stomachs of ordinary people to absorb them.
So, if you want to take the potion safely, you must activate the 'muscle stomach' that all Terrans have.
Or rather, 'the source'.
Ian has eaten so many monster materials in the recent period, naturally he has already activated his gizzard, opened up the so-called 'fountain of source quality', and can take potions at any time.
At this moment, the potion in the crystal bottle in Hilliard's hand has been smelted.
The fusion of gold and silver sources turned into a light white translucent crystalline fluid. Hilliard had already put pure silicon and fertile soil leaf powder into it as supplementary materials, which made the potion look There is also a strange sense of inorganic material.
However, on this light white crystalline fluid, there are vaguely light golden inscription lines emerging. In Ian's foreseeing vision, he can see a large number of source quality chips floating in the liquid, condensing one after another. The inscriptions are connected in series to form a huge sublimation structure.
Like a hill standing still in a storm.
And that is the core of the 'Sand Armor Apprentice' potion!
"Drink."
Hilliard handed the bottle of light white gold-patterned potion to Ian. He looked a little tired, but his eyes were bright, and he looked at Ian expectantly: "This is the best that the current situation can produce. potion, and I haven't had a few such masterpieces in my life."
"Ian, my student, it definitely deserves your talent."
"Teacher, I will do the best I can."
Ian also stretched out his hands seriously, and took the crystal bottle in his teacher's hand. He stared at the strange potion with inscriptions that were constantly spinning and churning in the bottle, and then smiled: "It's really interesting."
Ian always said that, he was always yearning and curious about everything from the bottom of his heart.
So, with surging anticipation, he raised the bottle and drank it in his mouth.
Cold, heavy liquid poured down the throat, into the second stomach like ice.
Immediately afterwards, a flow of hot magma ignited in Ian's body!
