Saint Laurent Prison Warden

Chapter 55: Repeated desensitization, finally got a chance ( words completed)

The First Affiliated Hospital of Jinhui Buddhist College, underground research institute.

All of Richard's defective and finished medicines were brought here.

All the medicines were opened and a test tube amount was extracted for experimentation.

The little white mice that were forced to drink the potion were lying in a large area, either dead or disabled.

In the darkness, sporadic conversations were heard.

"Report, sir. All potions have been tested. All the magic potions brewed by the target are the same as Professor Princeton's judgment, they are ordinary or defective."

"This is weird. What on earth is he doing? Is he really trying to make a potion that can repair his own weak soul?"

"I don't know."

"Forget it, this has nothing to do with you, just do what you have to do, go down."

"Yes!"

……

On the tenth day, Dean Hank still hadn't shown up. The news that Dean Hank had died spread all over the city, getting more and more intense.

Richard's daily commuting to and from the First Affiliated Hospital was also seen by the media as a sign that he was paying attention to Dean Hank's deteriorating health.

By today, many media outlets could no longer hold back and wanted to raid the First Affiliated Hospital's inpatient department to interview Dean Hank for first-hand information, including a cameraman from Silver Age Weekly.

The biggest reason for this is that a well-known journalist became very famous for his reports on Dean Hank and Richard.

Even the stories of Richard and Lord Xingge, whose popularity had been gradually fading, have become heated up again.

Especially the photo of Xingge and Richard, the picture was so beautiful and poetic that many girls even cut it out and hung it on the head of their beds.

But no matter how many media reporters there were, they could only stop in front of the black-robed wizard of the Star-Moon Society.

Facing doctors, nurses and even the police, these reporters, who are known as the uncrowned kings, dare to rush forward.

But when facing the Xingyue Society, they have to be as honest as possible.

If you rush at the police, the worst that can happen is you get arrested, but if you rush at the Xingyue Society, you could really die.

No matter how chaotic the media was, Richard didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just some minor trouble.

Today, he came to the pharmacy as usual, took out the crucible and medicinal materials from the cabinet, and prepared to start refining the potion.

Just when he saw the discarded potion bottle, his hand movements suddenly paused.

No one, including Princeton, noticed that Richard had a habit when packaging medicines.

Regardless of whether it is a defective product or a finished product, he will adjust the bottom of the cork at the bottle mouth to the same position when packaging.

The bottom of the cork just corresponds to the bottom edge of the diamond pattern on the medicine bottle.

And now, those corks have been moved a little.

Seeing this scene, Richard smiled in his heart as expected, and then began to refine the medicine as usual without any fluctuation.

However, this time Richard refined the potion very smoothly and successfully!

The most unpalatable dishes are often not made by people who can’t cook, but by people who can cook and make them on purpose.

A person who can make a bad potion can often also make a good potion.

[Perseverance Potion].

Drinking it can make a person's soul stronger, thereby resisting some poisons and curses related to the soul. It is one of the most common level 1 potions.

After refining the [Perseverance Potion], Richard held the potion and shouted to the sleepy Princeton:

"Professor, please stop sleeping and get up. Come and see if this potion I made is the legendary Fortitude Potion."

"Hmm? Another person has been afflicted with the Stigmata Shackles. Where is he? Bring him over here so I can feel him."

Princeton woke up from his sleep with a trace of crystal saliva hanging from the corner of his mouth.

He was in a daze for a while before he saw Richard holding the medicine with an innocent look on his face. He was immediately furious.

"Why? I was sleeping soundly."

"Look, this is the Fortitude Potion. I made it successfully."

"Well, let me see." Princeton opened the potion, sniffed it, and was immediately amazed.

"Awesome, Fortitude Potion, ordinary quality, Mr. Richard, you have made great progress."

Richard laughed proudly, "Haha, I told you I was a genius at making potions? Professor, you didn't believe me. Do you believe it now?
Can I drink this potion?"

"Drink! You can drink it! It's rare that you finally made a potion of ordinary quality without any side effects. As a reward, I will give you a bottle to feel the effect of the potion yourself."

"okay!"

Richard picked up the potion and drank it all in one gulp. He smacked his lips, recalling the taste: "It's bland, tasteless, just like drinking water. After drinking it, my mind seems to be clearer. I'll continue my research."

Seeing Richard happily running away to continue his research, Princeton smiled and continued to sleep on the table.

Since the first bottle of Fortitude Potion was made, Richard has been producing Fortitude Potion continuously. Some are ordinary, some are excellent, and even one or two bottles of fine quality appear occasionally. Of course, most of the potions are inferior products that cannot even be drunk.

But this still made Princeton laugh.

At least this time, Richard did not divert the potion to something else of unclear meaning.

"That's amazing, Mr. Richard. Just with the Fortitude Potion, you have already reached the level of a pharmacist apprentice.

I take back my previous evaluation of you. Your talent for alchemy is not terrible, but just averagely terrible. With your unremitting efforts, you can still be saved. "

"That's right. I was born to be useful, and I will make it back even if I lose all my money! Hahaha!" Richard laughed while picking up a bottle of excellent quality Fortitude Potion. He tilted his head back and gulped it down.

Chic!

Princeton's eyes almost popped out of his head at this scene.

"Not Richard, what are you doing?"

"I'm thirsty! Give me a drink."

"If you are thirsty, drink water. Who told you to drink potion? Can you drink this stuff casually? What if something happens after drinking it?" Princeton was so angry that his liver hurt.

"Well, this is the excellent Fortitude Potion that you have appraised! If something happens to me after drinking this, it means that you are not skilled enough.

Don't think I don't know that if you want to be a good pharmacist, testing drugs on yourself is a necessary step.

How can you feel the mystery contained in the medicine without trying it on yourself?

All the masters of medicine are fed with medicine. Don't worry about me, as long as I don't die from drinking it."

"You, that's not what you said at first!" Princeton was furious.

"What did I say at the beginning?"

"You said you would never drink potions without my consent."

"But I drank the potion you had identified. How can I drink it carelessly if I drink the potion you identified?"

"You, you, this is not okay! I don't care. If you drink again, I won't help you identify it."

"Hey, if you don't help me identify it, then I'll just drink it recklessly. Maybe one of the potions I drank recklessly can cure my weak soul, then I won't have to come to you for research in the future."

“That won’t work.

Medicine is poisonous. If you drink it without my consent, what if you die from it?"

"It's better if I drink myself to death. I don't need you to study me anymore." Richard laughed.

"You! If you drink recklessly, I won't give you medicinal herbs anymore!"

"Then I won't come here anymore. The herbs and the cauldron aren't expensive, I'll figure it out myself."

Princeton broke through the defense.

The problem now is that he needs help from Richard, but Richard can't ask him for anything. The worst thing is that he is afraid that Richard will die, but Richard is not afraid of dying himself.

Is there still justice? Is there still law? How can he bargain with Richard?

After thinking this through, Princeton decided to just go for broke.

"Okay, okay, if you want to test the drug on yourself, then do it. Remember to drink it in front of me, and drink it well! I'll be watching you, and even if you drink yourself into trouble, I can still rescue you in time."

"That's right. I'm not your student or your subordinate. I have to listen to you.

We are in a cooperative relationship. If we cooperate, we both benefit. If we don’t, we will break up.”

It's true, after Richard tried the medicine on himself, he made rapid progress. Soon, in addition to the [Perseverance Potion], he was able to steadily produce [Clarity Potion], [Eyesight Potion] and other level 1 soul potions, and he also got himself a few bottles of potion to drink.

This made Princeton very anxious.

Because Richard would drink the medicine carelessly, Princeton became more and more sensitive to Richard's behavior. Whenever Richard wanted to take medicine, he would go over and carefully examine the medicine to make sure there was no problem before giving it to Richard.

Princeton didn't realize that when he focused all his attention on Richard drinking the potion, he became more and more relaxed about Richard's process of making the potion. At the same time, he became less and less concerned about the unqualified potion.

Even if Richard felt that the potion he had failed to make was not required to be handed over to Princeton for judgment. As long as he put the potion in the waste area, Princeton would not bother to check it.

Finally, Richard found an opportunity. While Princeton was studying the report, he refined a bottle of soul-shaping potion in front of Princeton and threw it into the discarded potions without Princeton noticing it.

The space in the lounge is limited, and whenever the waste medicines are full, they need to be cleaned up, that is, all the waste medicines must be poured into the washbasin in the bathroom and enter the hospital's wastewater treatment pool.

The water in the wastewater treatment pool will undergo more than a dozen strong element reactions before becoming a largely harmless liquid, eventually being discharged into the ground and entering the water cycle.

Richard was responsible for the disposal of the waste liquid. Princeton, who trusted Richard very much, would not even watch.

At the same time, Richard had already guessed the location of the toilet surveillance camera over the past ten days - it was the mosquito that had been staying motionless in the same position on the ceiling for the past ten days.

It’s not that the mosquito is too stupid, but in the cramped and partitioned bathroom, that’s the only position where you can see the shower room, sink and toilet at the same time.

After secretly placing the soul-shaping potion, Richard continued to practice making medicine, and before long, the shelf of discarded medicines was full.

He glanced at Princeton, confirmed that Princeton was still reading the report, and shouted, "I'll go pour the medicine."

"Huh? What did you say?" Princeton poked his head out from behind a pile of reports.
