Wizarding World Beekeeper.

Chapter 166 Welcome to Chaos
Carter didn't immediately answer his question.

Holding the Wind Wing Elixir in your hand and observing it carefully for a while, you can feel that the magic power in your body resonates with it.

This is enough proof of its quality.

In the field of alchemical potions, he can be called excellent.

In the past, Carter might have agreed with the old dwarf.

But after seeing the honey series, ordinary potions can no longer be called "perfect" in his opinion.

Let’s talk about a potion that increases the power of wind magic.

He had a bottle in his store.

Bellflower honey.

Like other honey series potions, it has no toxic or side effects.

In comparison, this Wind Wing elixir is really not that interesting.

Carter put the potion back on the table and asked:
"How much does this sell for?"

The old dwarf thought he was sure of everything, and felt so comfortable that his beard seemed to stretch out, and he confidently stretched out five fingers:
"5 tree coins."

Tree coins refer to the common human gold coins in the Western Continent, named after a tree printed on the front.Also known as Alliance Gold Coin.

Seven human kingdoms formed a loose alliance. The first thing to be unified was currency, which provided great convenience for trade between countries.

The seven human kingdoms account for nearly 2/3 of the gold reserves on the Western Continent, so it is not stingy at all to create gold coins.

The gold purity of tree coins is quite high, and it is very popular and trusted by merchants.Other races are also happy to take tree coins.

After hearing this quotation, Carter secretly compared it with the pricing of the goods he sold, and then said:

"Going back to your previous question, you asked me if I have ever seen such a perfect potion? What if I say yes?"

The old dwarf probably thought this was a poor way of speaking, and said with a smile:
"I'm all ears, let's open our eyes too."

Next is the competition of knowledge and eloquence.thought the old dwarf.

As a veteran traveling businessman who has traveled extensively, he is confident that he is well-informed and will not lose to this young man in terms of knowledge reserve or eloquence.

"It is also a magic potion that can greatly increase the power of wind spells without any side effects."

"No side effects?"

The old dwarf controlled his expression, feeling disappointed at the young mage's ignorance. He thought he was somewhat competent, but he didn't expect that he didn't even know basic common sense.

As we all know, alchemical potions can only be infinitely close to zero side effects, but they can never truly achieve it - at least according to the current alchemical theory, this is true.

This actually implies one of the most basic rules of alchemy: if you want to gain something, you must lose something.

For example, if you want to gain faster speed, you have to pay for it with resistance or physical strength.

The strengthening of certain aspects must be accompanied by the weakening of certain aspects.

Not to mention the general accumulation of toxins.

If you really want to refine a potion that has no toxic or side effects, you must at least break through the existing alchemical framework, which is a cutting-edge topic studied by today's top alchemists.

He didn't think this little-known town could produce such an achievement.

"Yes, the name of the potion is 'bellflower honey'. As the name suggests, it may use bellflower as an ingredient."

The bellflower is just a common flower that contains a relatively pure wind element, but has no special magical element.

"That's quite a feat."

The dwarf couldn't help but make a sarcastic comment.

The old dwarf was thinking about how to expose his clumsy lies.

Unexpectedly, the young mage did not follow the routine and said directly: "Go to my shop and have a look. The magic potion is there."

……

All the way to the door of the alchemy workshop, the old dwarf still didn't believe the mage's lies.

But he took the initiative to invite them to the store, so confident that it didn't look like he was lying.

Walking into the alchemy workshop full of doubts.

From the outside, this is a very ordinary house, the style is no different from most buildings in the town.

The whole is divided into left and right parts.

On the left is the main body of the building, which is where they entered.The one on the right is slightly smaller, probably a warehouse or a rest room.

When you walk in, you will see a very ordinary store, not too big in area, with some goods scattered on the shelves on both sides. It must have just opened, there are not many things, and the store is also very new.

However, since it is an "alchemy workshop", it means that not only things are sold here, but alchemy operations must also be carried out here.

Maybe where the back door leads to, maybe in the basement.

There was a ferocious-looking guy sitting behind the counter, with his hair standing on end like a vicious wolf.

He was lying on the counter looking bored.

When he saw Carter entering the door, he straightened up and said strangely:
"Why are you back so soon...Hey, are there guests?"

"Well, you go ahead, I'll come and see the store."

Cole said seriously: "No, I'm willing to admit defeat. It's my turn to stay here tonight."

"You didn't lose." Carter put the robe on the hanger and said calmly: "Actually, you guessed it right before. I used a trick to turn the coin over."

"You boy!"

Cole made a contemptuous gesture at him and ran out the door without saying a word, like a wild dog that had run loose. It was obvious that he was suffocated in the store.

Carter raised his hand, and several streams of air converged in front of his palm, spinning around and flying to the top of the shelf. Holding a strange-shaped glass bottle, it flew steadily back to his hand.

The old dwarf was originally wondering why there were so many empty spaces on the shelves, so why should they be placed at the top? It was so inconvenient to access them.

But then I saw the price tag on it and immediately understood what was going on.

15 gold coins, this is not for ordinary people.

There are several bottles of the same style of potions in the row above, but the colors are different, and the prices are also quite different - but they are generally quite expensive, and they should be different types of potions in the same series.

Such a valuable product should naturally be placed in a place where it is not easily touched by accident to avoid any accidents.

But is it really worth the price?

The bottle that the young mage took down contained a yellow-green viscous liquid.

If it is a magic potion without side effects as he said, then 15 gold coins is indeed not expensive.

Academic research in the field of alchemy may be of even greater value.

However, he doubts this.

As a travel businessman, you must have an identification method that you can trust.

If you only observe with your own naked eyes, no matter how experienced you are, you will never be fooled.

As the saying goes, a wise man will make a mistake every time he thinks. If he is not careful, he will be deceived and lose his pants.

Especially for products like potions, you can't taste them yourself.

The old dwarf took out a monocle from his pocket, stuck it on his right eye, and looked closer at the bottle of yellow-green potion.

A white light glowed on the monocle.

After a moment, the old dwarf took a breath and his eyes widened.

His whole body froze as if he was petrified.

The dwarf saw that something was not right with him and called out tentatively:
"Master?"

The old dwarf came to his senses and said nothing, but silently handed the monocle to the young apprentice.

The dwarf took the lens and knew that the master meant to let him see for himself.

So he put on his lenses, looked at the bottle of potion, and focused his eyes on the potion inside.A white light first appeared in front of his eyes, and then relevant identification information flooded into his mind.

"..."

The dwarf also froze.

It's actually true!
The magic potion without side effects that the mage said actually exists.

And right in front of him!
Although the traveling merchant's understanding of alchemical potions is not as deep as that of the alchemist, he is much more familiar with it than ordinary people.

He knew the meaning of this bottle of potion.

The old dwarf was in awe and asked in a respectful tone:
"May I have the pleasure of meeting your fellow alchemist?"

Carter said:
"Don't get me wrong, the honey series potions were not refined by my companion, but by her master.

"Of course, she is also very good..."

Boom! !

Suddenly, there was a dull explosion from the back door, interrupting Carter's speech, and then, black smoke spilled from the crack in the door.

"Squeak" the door opened.

A figure slowly walked out of the black smoke...

Should be a woman.

His face was pitch black, and his hair was as messy as if it had been exploded, as if every strand of hair had its own idea.

Contrary to her embarrassed appearance, her mood at this time was quite stable.

His eyes swept over the three of them one by one, and he said calmly: "It's okay, I just need some ventilation."

"..."

"..."

"..."

The old dwarf guessed that this should be the "very excellent" companion mentioned by the mage.

A typical wild alchemist, Lu Ziye.

"cough."

Carter coughed dryly and continued: "Anyway, if you want to see the alchemist master, you have to wait until tomorrow. It's too late today, so it's not convenient to disturb him."

The old dwarf immediately said: "There is no problem at all."

Not to mention waiting all night, even if you wait a few days, it is worth it as long as you can see the alchemist.

The old dwarf looked away from the bellflower honey, looked at the other bottles of honey on the shelf, and asked: "Are those also the works of that master? What medicinal effects do they have?"

"Let me start from the left..."

Carter introduced the effects of various types of honey to the two traveling businessmen.

The noise in the square reached here and was already faint as mosquitoes and flies.

Thick smoke is gradually released from the chimney into the air.

The moonlight is dim tonight.

The night wind was a little chaotic.

Driven by the wind, some of the thick smoke rose into the sky, while some dispersed to the surrounding areas.

Another part floats towards the black forest.

In the dark forest, soft orange light shines through the windows of the Bee Whisperer's hut.

……

"That's why you hate the Chaos Period so much."

Hua Mi nodded thoughtfully.

The so-called chaotic period.

In layman's terms, it is a period when magic elements are relatively chaotic.

During this period, the magical elements on the Western Continent showed temporary chaotic and unpredictable properties due to periodic discrete aggregation effects.

The most intuitive impact is on climate.

One second it was ice and snow, the next second it might be cloudless.

One second the sun is shining brightly, and the next second there may be icy rain patting randomly on your face.

You never know whether you will be greeted by a cold wind like a knife or a heat wave like fire.

There is one word to describe the climate of this season, that is "serious disease".

Nature is sick and the effect is extraordinary.

It’s not just the climate.

Casting spells on individuals will also have a certain impact.

If you are not focused enough when casting a spell, or you are not proficient enough in a certain spell, there is a certain probability that the spell will fail directly...

It may even be counterattacked by magic power, resulting in injury.

Hua Mi felt that it was nothing more than that.

That's it.

The climate is just a little more changeable.

Not much of a disaster.

As for the failure to cast the spell, it seemed to him that it was fine.

He has no blue.

The spell casting has never been successful.

The seven little ones were trembling with fear about the coming period of chaos.

Because they are closely related to the Black Forest, they will be affected by the environment in the Black Forest to a certain extent.

Their temperaments may become moody during this time, and they may generally be more irritable than usual.

Magic can come and go.

Hua Mi still pays more attention to this.

The flower field cannot be separated from them.

Without their magical care, the growth rhythm of the flower field collapsed.

Hua Mi decided to take care of their emotions.

Including but not limited to music therapy.

For example, install a set of speakers in a cabin or greenhouse.

Invite them to listen to some healing music, which I believe will help stabilize their mood.

……

We are about to enter a period of chaos.

Hua Mi really wanted to see how nature went crazy.

There are also concerns about damage caused by extreme weather to greenhouses or cabins.

So I decided to keep a vigil tonight.
