dark witches rise

Chapter 176 This is not a cow blood potion at all!

"Master Vic, do you really want to do this?"

In the potion refining room, Maisie stood at a loss.

In the past, Roja stood at the front refining the potion, while Maisie stood at the bottle waiting for orders.

Now it’s actually the other way around!

Messi stands in the main position, with Roja assisting?

"Master Vic, I really can't do it!" Maisie said, shaking her head violently.

"Maisie, you have to believe in yourself. You will be fine. The ox blood potion is just a primary potion and it is easy to refine."

Roja put his hands on Maisie's shoulders and spoke very gently, "You have helped me refine the ox blood potion so many times. You should have memorized the process, right? And with me assisting you, there will be no problem.

"

"But……"

Maisie was confused.

In fact, she really wanted to give it a try.

"It doesn't matter if you fail, we still have so much material."

After failing again and again, Maisie's whole body became numb.

Step by step, Maisie felt no different from before.

Different people gather in the mission building with different mentality.

Heating, stirring, adding auxiliary medicinal materials, filtering the medicinal liquid...

So they were able to conclude after just a little analysis that based on the number and size of the boxes on the carriage, they could just hold a thousand bottles of ox blood potion!

"Hey, won't you accept the extra potion? When did the rules change?"

The pharmacist actually came out to greet me in person. This treatment is extremely rare.

Looking at Roja with a surprised expression, pharmacist Hu Tuo stared at Roja for a long time.

"It doesn't matter, it can still be saved. We just need to change the stirring speed and range, and control the temperature, so that the cow blood and bone coagulation powder can be evenly mixed." Luo Ya's gentle voice sounded at the right time.

Even if this person is Vic Cyril, the number one in the outer court.

Unable to resist Roja's order, Maisie could only bite the bullet and continue refining.

Obviously all the processes have been memorized and the theory is fully understood, but once the actual operation is started, let alone the successful refining of the cow blood potion, even the first step of heating the cow blood cannot be completed!

There were tears in Macy's eyes, and she was about to cry.

Although the quality is very poor, it is the most rubbish kind.

"Yes." Roja nodded in response.

"I succeeded!"

After taking a few deep breaths, Maisie moved.

"Have you completed the task?" the pharmacist Hu Tuo asked with squinted eyes.

"Ah? Master Vic, you still want me to refine it?"

"Master Vic, don't you like maid clothes?" Maisie nervously grabbed the corner of her clothes and asked uneasily.

"I have already written down all the things I need to pay attention to in my mind. I just need to coordinate my movements with my mind during the refining process..."

Her dream is to become a pharmacist. She has learned a lot about pharmacy over the years. She is confident that her pharmacy foundation has been very solid. Now she is only one opportunity away from becoming a pharmacist.

Just an opportunity.

The fool-proof refining method finally arrived at can allow even a layman like Maisie to refine primary potions.

"Once the heating is uneven, the cow blood will be destroyed and the refining will fail."

Most of the pharmacists in the Young Lions Hospital are gathered here.

Was it really refined?

Even the pharmacist Hu Tuo, who had lived for sixty or seventy years and had seen many big scenes, was stunned for a while.

"Haha, forget it, it's the last time anyway, just let me quietly finish refining the last bottle of potion in my life."

The wall clock in the mission building turned slowly, and time passed minute by second.

After Roya pinched her red cheeks, he got up, changed his clothes and walked out of the room. He left the Cubs Yard and walked on the night streets of the silent and dangerous Scarborough Market.

"But he..."

"You... forget it, just be happy."

but--

Under Roja's guidance, Maisie finally successfully heated the cow's blood.

"Are there too many bubbles?"

He looked at Maisie, who was still calling his name in her sleep even though she had fainted from exhaustion.

"I see that these days he spends at least one or two hours in the library, and as many as three or five hours a day. He often leaves the Little Lions Yard to go to the city. It doesn't look like he is concentrating on refining the ox blood potion at all."

"Come on, just for the last time."

As soon as Luo Ya stopped, an old man who looked to be in his 60s or 70s came out with the help of the counter lady and came to Luo Ya.

Dozens of modifications to the prescription came to Roja's mind.

After looking at it for nearly a minute, I didn't see any flaws.

Their eyes focused on Roja, but Roja's face was calm, his expression was neither sad nor happy, and there was no useful information at all.

fail!

"Here, next one."

After Roya's repeated encouragement, Macy nodded.

The pharmacists union specializes in cultivating pharmacists who understand various medicinal materials and are proficient in processing methods of medicinal materials?

It’s just a gimmick!

"Is it finally here?"

Obviously as long as she is given another chance, she will be able to do it.

"This resistance is..."

"No need, Master Vic, I already have a deep understanding of my level." Messila shrugged her shoulders and said weakly.

Macy's eyes were blank, and her body was moving mechanically.

"he came!"

"Um?"

But there is no doubt that it is a real cow blood potion, a bottle of elementary potion that has passed the test!

"Success?"

Macy's face changed slightly.

And as Roja said, the ox blood potion is quite easy to refine.

The time for refining the potion passed so quickly this time.

at night.

It has been a month since Roja took over the task of receiving a thousand bottles of ox blood potion, and today is the task handover date.

"……Um."

"It's just a little bit close. You can successfully refine the ox blood potion next time."

"I just said you can do it." Roya patted Maisie on the shoulder and smiled.

His brows furrowed even more.

Now think about it, how arrogant she was before!

In the past, she felt unhappy that Vic no longer wanted her help just because there was a slight problem with the handling of the medicinal materials when she helped make the potion for the first time.

"no problem."

"Are you kidding?"

The level of medicine servants, not to mention real pharmacists, are far behind even pharmacy apprentices!

"Messie, come on, continue." Roja said.

"He and Miss Tina share the same blood. With Miss Tina protecting him, he will not be kicked out of the Cubs' Home even if he fails. No smart person will waste time on an impossible task.

"

Some people are out of curiosity, some people are watching the excitement, and some people simply want to expose Roja's scam.

After all, Luo Ya was her master. Even if she felt in her heart that she could never succeed, since Luo Ya, as the master, asked her to continue, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue.

Holding the finished product she refined, she looked at the liquid with many fine suspended solids in the bottle.

Roja thought while passing toilet paper to Messi, "The optimization of the techniques and steps for refining the ox blood potion has reached an extreme level. If we want to continue to make great progress, we can only try to change the prescription."

fail!

The mission building is particularly lively today.

After listening to Roja's explanation of the new refining flow and precautions, Maisie started again.

Just a bottle of failure!

Then he put his nostrils to the mouth of the bottle and took a slight breath.

"It doesn't matter if ordinary people believe it, but as a pharmacist, do you believe it too?"

She didn't hear Roya's instructions.

"What should I do? The cow's blood is splattered everywhere!"

When refining before, Luo Ya would always speak out to guide her, but now he didn't say a word and was too quiet.

Amid the heated discussion, Roja arrived in front of the mission building.

…

"There are three hundred more bottles, and I will sell them to the pharmacists' union."

They were discussing in low voices and looking towards the door frequently.

"Well, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the color."

"Do you think this is true?"

Macy was exhausted physically and mentally as she looked at the product she had refined, a potion with many lumps of condensation in the liquid.

Roya and her maid Maisie were seen walking in the front. Behind them, a groom pulled a carriage with small boxes placed in the carriage.

She has memorized the entire process completely. She has fully understood the refining principle of the ox blood potion. She believes that if she were to operate it, she could complete the refining process with her eyes closed.

fail!

This bottle of ox blood potion she refined is incomparable to the one refined by Luo Ya. The quality and presentation are worlds apart.

"Well... let's just watch the excitement."

Hundreds of people eagerly awaited Roja's arrival.

This process can take as short as half an hour or as long as three to five days.

The pharmacists of the Young Lions Hospital did not pay much attention to this matter. It has been less than a month since the convoy set off for the headquarters of the pharmacists union, Green City.

"Otherwise, why do you think pharmacists are said to be a money-burning industry?"

"It's normal to fail in refining the first time. Which pharmacist doesn't experience multiple failures when refining potions? The first time I made a primary potion, I also failed many times."

Vic really refined a thousand bottles of ox blood potion!

How is this possible?

Vic had already seen through that potion refining session that Maisie was at a level that even an assistant could not achieve!

He held the potion bottle and shook it slightly. Looking at the number of bubbles coming out of the bottle, his eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

She has been assisting Luo Ya in refining the ox blood potion these days. Luo Ya not only asked her to start, but also slowly explained to her the difficulties and principles of refining the ox blood potion from the simple to the deep.

"I will work hard!"

At this time, Roja on the side gently held her hand.

"A thousand bottles of ox blood potion?"

"How many different styles of maid uniforms do you have?" Roja said speechlessly.

The instigator, Heidi, stood in the crowd, looking at Roja walking over with his fists clenched, his eyes filled with hatred.

"Even if he is a senior pharmacist of the Beast Sect, he can't succeed!" Heidi shook his head and said.

Tick ​​tock tick.

When the time was about to reach noon, everyone was already impatient with waiting. When they were about to leave, a sharp-eyed man suddenly pointed in the distance and screamed.

"do not worry."

"Wow!"

"I've made the potion!"

"This time I have modified the refining process and techniques. Even with your level, you should be able to refine it."

"Hmph, there must be a scam! Maybe he really bought the potion from outside and used it to refine it himself! He will definitely show his flaws later!"

If Roja didn't complete the mission, why did he come to the mission building with a carriage full of boxes?

Many of the people present were pharmacists, and they knew the size of a bottle of cow blood medicine and how many bottles of cow blood medicine could be contained in a box.

"The force is too weak and the stirring is too slow."

"Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! -"

People looked in the direction where Roja was coming.

"That's right, as a genius of the herbal school, how could Vic waste time on a mere elementary potion, ox blood potion, at the critical moment when he is about to go to Green City?"

Macy was holding the first bottle of potion she had refined, and she was about to shed tears. "I really have no talent for potions. It's really shameless for someone like me to actually try to become a pharmacist or something!"

The crowd was suddenly in an uproar.

"I, I... what should I do?"

Next, continue to stir the beef blood with one hand, and add bone coagulation powder to the beef blood with the other hand.

"Could it have been really refined?"

…

"is that so?"

Roja decisively opened one of the boxes and looked at the bottles of ox blood medicine placed in the box. The people around him took a deep breath.

"Heating the blood of the fire-horned bull, during the heating process, it is necessary to stir while heating..."

It can only be said that Luo Ya's refining of a thousand bottles of ox blood potion a month did cause a great sensation, and even the pharmacist was alarmed.

After observing for a while, the pharmacist Huto opened the bottle cap, and a stream of hot air spurted out from the bottle and hit his face.

"Although he won't be kicked out of the Cubs Academy, if he fails, it will still have a great impact on his future, right?"

Seeing the bone coagulation powder spread unevenly, Macy suddenly panicked.

While waiting for Roja, they chattered.

From the boxes on the carriage and the smile on Maisie's face, everyone had already guessed the answer.

After some hectic refining of the potion.

After coming back to his senses, he randomly took out a bottle of ox blood potion from the box and looked at it carefully.

Generally, after pharmacists complete their potion tasks and hand over the refined potion, the counter lady will transfer it to the backstage and hand it over to the pharmacist for testing.

"Don't blame me if you fail?" Maisie said this on the surface, but in fact she felt in her heart that she would never fail at all.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye.

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe in yourself, you have to believe in me who believes in you!"

fail!

But Mai Qi, the maid who was half a body behind and walking beside Roja, couldn't hold back her smile, revealing two pointed little tiger teeth.

"Do you think it's possible for him to buy the finished cow blood potion outside and refine it himself?"

"I've been waiting for so long. If you don't give me a surprise, I want to make him look good!"

In addition to Maisie's own efforts and progress, the more important reason for success is Roja's continuous improvement and optimization of refining techniques and procedures.

Macy stood in front of the potion materials arranged.

——Herbalist Huto Dilan.

And if you think about it with your brain, you will know that the task of one thousand bottles of ox blood medicine a month is impossible to complete!

Since you already know the results, why waste your precious time paying attention?

However, I don’t know when a piece of gossip started to spread.

"Oh my god, tell me this isn't true!"

Macy was stunned.

"Since you all think it is impossible for him to complete the mission, why are you still standing here?"

Mercy was overjoyed and cried loudly regardless of her appearance.

This was the first time in her life that she was making potions, so she was very excited and very nervous.

"No, I was just wondering if you would change into a different maid outfit every night in the next month or so."

"It's okay, Macy, I believe you."

"Is it because you know I'm hopeless?"

He looked at Maisie who had changed into a brand new maid uniform that she had not seen before and a different style.

Macy held the stick in her hand and stirred gently.

"Come on, breathe slowly and stir little by little, making circles like this."

"Uuuuuu——"

"What's the box in the carriage?"

But Maisie doesn't need to know this.

They have a lot to do and don't have much time to worry about other people's chores.

Not at all!

Roja was holding a pen in his hand and writing something in his notebook. After he wrote tens of thousands of words at a speed of dozens of words per second, he stopped writing and turned around to look, and found that Maisie was actually crying.

Zhang's pretty face was full of tears.

"Since you were slow just now, let's speed up..."

She was almost stupid.

There is only one thing that Maisie needs to know - she has successfully refined a bottle of primary potion!

"Brother Heidi, he must have really succeeded, right?" the boy on the side said in disbelief.

She gradually understood the fact that with her current strength, it was impossible to refine a primary potion!

She previously thought that her foundation was already very solid, and that she already had skills comparable to those of a pharmacist apprentice, but she was just one short of a chance.

"I have mastered the secret of stirring. I have completely memorized the speed and force of sprinkling bone powder. I can't go wrong... Wow——"

Ox blood potion?

"not good!"

"Is he stupid? If he dares to do this, he will not just be expelled from the Young Lions Home, but will also be expelled from the Pharmacist Union, and his whole life will be ruined!"

This cannot be called a medicine at all!

"It seems so."

But as soon as she made a move, her heart suddenly panicked.

"Maisie you can do it!"

"Can I test medicine here?" Pharmacist Hu Tuo asked.

"Failure is the mother of success. Didn't you gain a lot of experience from this failure? This experience can definitely be used for the next time."

What's more, the ox blood potion should only have a faint medicinal scent, but you can smell a pungent ox blood smell.

At this point, Pharmacist Hu Tuo is 100% able to make a decision.

He looked at Roja expressionlessly and said word by word:

"This is not Nioxuewang at all!"
