The Divine Hunter

  Chapter 46 Potion

  The demon hunter booked a room in the tavern first, and after going upstairs to put the luggage away, he processed the griffon's organization materials a little bit.

   Then began to inquire about Roy’s recent encounters in Eddesberg, who focused on the "child hunters" encountered under the horn trees in Cardell's House.

"You have good luck. That thing is about the same as the water ghost in terms of combat effectiveness and danger. It is just suitable for newcomers like you to practice." Resso said in a deep voice. It can be easily destroyed. Although it is a bit wasteful to use Dancing Star on it, but if you survive, it is dead, then it is worth the money.

"Boy, you did a beautiful job at the Cardell House." Resso praised sincerely. He was not referring to Roy's fighting performance under the tree hole, but the process of analyzing doubts and unearthing clues in the whole thing. .

  A demon hunter who can use his brain will live longer than a man who can only use force.

  Next, Roy showed the yellow cheese-like vomit he accidentally brought out to the Demon Hunter.

The Demon Hunter analyzed it from various aspects of taste and appearance, and said, “Hunters are very rare. Among the people I know, Oakes and Serrit hunted one of them more than 50 years ago, but they are very rare. Unfortunately, they did not get enough fresh vomit."

  He frowned, "The specific composition is unknown, but I can feel that after taking it, the flow of magic power in the body is greatly hindered, and even a seal cannot be released."

"Too little inventory should not have the effect of the original'stripping', but it at least has the effect of blocking magic gold, to some extent it can restrain the caster and the monsters that rely on spells... Maybe some warlocks will buy this stuff at a high price. Er. This is your trophy, put it away." The demon hunter handed it back, "It's best to put it in an earthen jar and save it. When it's not so fresh, the effect will be greatly reduced."

  Roy's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he felt regretful for a moment. Why didn't he be ruthless to bring out all the "vomit".

  But he doesn’t need to save it in an earthen jar, he has a more perfect way to save it—throw it into the space.

  The two chatted for a while, the Demon Hunter took him to find an open space outside the city, and checked his crossbow shooting skills and herbal medicine knowledge.

Roy has unlocked the Crossbow Specialization LV1, and his training every night is never interrupted. Compared with his short training time, he is impeccable in terms of shooting posture, alignment, and reaction speed. The Demon Hunter is naturally very good. satisfy.

As for the knowledge of herbal medicine, in addition to being engraved into the brain by the magic hunter, and referring to more than fifty kinds of herbs taught along the way, Roy has expanded his knowledge while helping the crook Tross to run the herbal medicine stall in the market. A lot. Every day, I can come into contact with common plants such as sage, marigold, belladonna, datura, etc., and also see rare herbs such as bidens flower, blood moss, buckthorn, four-leaf clover.

  At present, Roy has more than 80 kinds of herbal medicines that control the growth environment, medicinal properties, and appearance characteristics. This also left Resso speechless.

  His theoretical foundation of herbal medicine is solid enough and should be put into practice.

"You said that you have spent most of the month studying common words in school?" Reso touched his bare head, "I didn't think about it well. I forgot your shortcomings in this area. Since you haven't started researching yet. The potion on the note."

   "That's right, I'll teach you step by step. Anyway, the potions and alchemy bombs on your body are all used up, you need to refine some replenishment inventory."

   "By the way, there are also prodrugs of green herbal medicines. This is a troublesome job. You will hit me at that time."

  ...

  Pharmacy is a branch of alchemy.

  The magical potions, decoctions, sword oils, and alchemy bombs produced by alchemy all require magical harmony, and some of them can only be used by the demon hunter. The products of pharmacy can also be refined and consumed by ordinary people.

  Virtual alchemy, just collect all the materials and press a button, and the finished product will appear in the bag. But unfortunately, there is no such beauty in the real world.

  Alchemy is an extremely complex technique, and its branch pharmacy is also not simple. It involves materials, tools, instruments and techniques. The materials are divided into drug base, main drug, auxiliary drug, neutralizer and so on.

  The tools and instruments for refining are more complex, and all these combined together can be called an alchemy platform.

  ...

  Resso spent a day buying some herbs, bottles and pots of utensils in Eddesberg, renting a room, and transforming it into an alchemy room.

  After Roy entered the alchemy room to visit, he was shocked.

  How is this different from the kitchen? !

  The first thing that catches the eye is the stove with a human-powered blower in the middle, and a big, eye-catching iron pot stands on the stove.

  In front of the iron pot, near the waist of the operator, there are mortars, sand bowls, plates, and a gooseneck still placed on a small stove.

  There is a clock hanging on the uppermost layer on the right hand side, which is used to record the time when the herbal medicines are boiled. Next to the clock is placed various dried herbal medicines required for refining pharmaceutical agents.

  On the second layer on the right hand side is a pestle for pounding the medicine, and the stone mortar in the middle is used to crush the medicine.

  On the left hand side, across the drawstring of the blower that can heat the large iron pot in the center, a pot filled with dwarf spirits, water, oil, and other liquids is placed on the top layer. Different medicines are boiled with different liquids as the bottom of the medicine.

  On the second layer on the left, there are utensils for holding potions and potions. There are several sizes of different sizes.

  "This...how is this different from what I thought?" Roy hesitated and said.

   "Boy, what do you think? Have you seen a different alchemy platform elsewhere?" Resso asked in a puzzled way.

   "I just think it's a bit too rudimentary. Does our school Gersved also use this set of alchemy equipment?" Roy didn't believe that the alchemy equipment would be so full of "country flavor". It feels like a small country workshop producing some contraband.

  In his impression, alchemy should have something to do with chemistry. At least it should be a little transparent glass test tube, alcohol lamp, iron stand and the like.

"Are you dissatisfied?" A hint of surprise flashed in Lei Suo's eyes, and he couldn't figure out where he came from, but he still patiently explained, "The alchemy equipment in the Snake School is indeed more advanced, complete and beautiful. But you You have to know that with limited external conditions, it is not easy to meet the basic requirements of alchemy."

  "If there is an alchemy room that a warlock is willing to lend, it's a different matter. Most of those guys have obsessive-compulsive disorder and require extremely high details of everything, so they often have the most sophisticated alchemy equipment."

"But this set in front of you is completely enough for you as a beginner." The witcher suddenly reached out and knocked on Roy's forehead, adding to his tone, "Now concentrate, I will show you the most basic, simplest A kind of medicine, the refining process of calendula medicine."

  Roy rubbed his forehead, refreshed, and watched seriously.

  ...

Resso first took a bag of marigolds and nettles, placed them on the platform on the right hand side, weighed out a certain amount with a balance, and put them in a stone mortar one by one, mashed and ground the two with a pestle, and took the sample. Pass it to Roy.

  The degree of grinding is also particular. Not enough fineness will affect the properties of the medicine. Too fine and over-cooked can lead to refining failure. As for how to control, under the current crude conditions, we can only judge by experience.

After Roy had seen enough, he added a quarter of the water to the central large iron pot, poured in one ounce of nettle and two ounces of marigolds, and stirred with a spoon. At this time, the liquid became light. Yellow suspension.

  Next, he pulled the traction rope of the blower to make the charcoal at the bottom of the pot ignite a flame. At the same time, he glanced at the wall clock and waited quietly.

  Roy took the opportunity to ask about all the amounts involved before, the amount of nettle and marigolds as the main ingredients, and the amount of potion.

  The demon hunter explained one by one, and through rhetorical questions, he checked his mastery of the two herbs involved in alchemy.

  A quarter of an hour after the clock, the liquid medicine in the pot has not yet boiled, and a faint fragrance faintly exudes.

Resso immediately turned off the flame, holding the handle of the iron pan, and poured the liquid medicine into a translucent snake-neck bottle with short fingers. His muscular arm was surprisingly stable, and a drop of liquid medicine did not spill out, as if a muscular man was knitting a sweater. Every stitch and thread are just right.

  Finally, plug the cork cleanly.

  The entire refining process, in Roy's view, can be summarized as-facing the big iron pot, adding water, adding materials, pulling the blower tow rope, igniting and boiling, and collecting the juice from the pot.

  He couldn't help but think of a slightly funny idea.

  If he looked at the entire process from behind the other person, he would probably think that the bald man in front of him was a cook, and he was cooking some wonderful food.

"Calendula medicament, taken orally and externally, can speed up the healing of trauma and prevent wound infection... The effect is much better than simply applying and swallowing calendula." Reso shook the snake neck bottle and looked very satisfied, "as The most basic and the most versatile of the potions, you must master it. After all, your small body can't withstand potions like'Swallow'."

  "This is not so much a potion, as it is a medicinal soup." Roy said in his heart, looking at Reso expectantly, "What is the specific effect of this potion?"

   "It will be clear when you take a bottle after you are injured." The Demon Hunter said, "If the wound is not that serious, it will probably cut your healing time by half."

   "May I have a try?"

  The Demon Hunter gave up his position in front of the alchemy platform.

  Roy rolled up his sleeves, skillfully took out a bag of marigolds and a bag of nettles from the side, came to the alchemy table, and began to copy the process in memory. Take the amount and grind the two herbs into powder with a pounding pestle.

  He thinks that he keeps the refining process in mind, and he doesn't feel the difficulty at all. The problem came as soon as he started. It took him a lot of effort to use the scales to weigh the appropriate amount of medicine, and the speed was much slower than that of the Demon Hunter.

  It's hard to get the herbs, so I need to grind them with a pestle. How much is it to grind?

   "Uh, probably, it's thicker than the mill surface?" He mashed the herbs, took the time to launch a surprise attack, and glanced at the bald man next to him, wanting to see something.

  The other party was already prepared, and raised his chin blankly, beckoning him to continue.

"Ugh…"

  It’s useless to feel anxious in my heart, Roysol completely let go of his instincts...

  One quarter pot of water, just pour the kettle for ten seconds.

  Heat it with a small fire and let the blower blow three times.

  A quarter of an hour later, a small half pot of steaming medicinal soup was boiled, exuding a strong yellow feces and a pungent burnt smell.

  Roy has a serious face. The medicinal soup that Reso cooked last time is obviously pale yellow and exudes a delicate fragrance.

  How could the gap be so big, but he was not discouraged at all. It was normal for him to fail during the first refining.

  He bit his scalp and bottled the pot. During the process, he placed his fingers in the wrong position. After being scalded by the iron pot, the potion splashed out instantly.

  He didn’t see it, and continued to slowly pour the remaining potion into the snake-necked bottle, then covered it with a cork after shaking it slightly, and placed it on the alchemy table in a decent way.

  "This is a calendula potion? Can it reduce inflammation and stop bleeding?" Resso took the potion bottle with a blank expression and looked at it carefully, opened it and smelled it. Then, the facial muscles twitched visibly. "Little devil, I think the only effect of this bottle of medicine is to moisturize the intestines and relax the bowels."

   "Failed!"

"continue!"

  　 Thank you Fengjian Tassel a, Guyuehantianshui for your reward and support! thanks for your support!
