My Pokémon Story of Seasons

Chapter 209 My Unique Alchemy

"As expected, even finished products can still be used for alchemy."

Tong Hua carefully read the system prompts and was quite satisfied with the result. Although the quality was only E-grade, it was already quite good for her first formal attempt at alchemy.

To be frank, the raw materials used in alchemy were not based on the given formula; they were merely a low-end version created by Tong Hua using the materials he had on hand.

He picked up a bottle of the finished product and examined it against the light. Tiny specks of light floated in the pale blue liquid, as if they contained the rhythm of life. He gained a new understanding of the profession of alchemist.

"It is estimated that this type 1 plant growth agent can still be used as raw material to make type 2, type 3, and even more advanced medicines through alchemy."

Then, the quality of these medicines should also steadily improve.

Unlike cooking, where quality is determined after completion, things made with alchemy cannot be completed at all if the quality is substandard.

Thinking of this, Tong Hua's eyes sparkled with excitement.

The joy of this exploration far surpasses that of any previous profession!

Moreover, this successful creation also upgraded Tong Hua's Alchemist class to level 5, unlocking a new skill.

Alchemist: Level 5

[Status: Luck increased, cold resistance increased, fishing ability increased, experience points increased.]

Experience points: 200/1440

[Professional Skills: Manufacturing, Processing]

"In terms of skills, they are the same as those of cooks and carvers. I guess these basic skills are common to all professions."

"Well, something's better than nothing. At least this passive skill, [Processing], can improve my processing accuracy, making it easier to create high-quality items in the future."

Tong Hua thought for a moment, picked up a bottle of Plant Growth Agent Type 1, went outside, and came to the field behind the wooden house.

"Alchemy is a science. And science should be objective facts that anyone can reproduce by following the correct steps."

However, in this world, I am the only one with a profession who can complete alchemy.

In other words, this is alchemy that belongs solely to me!

Tong Hua squatted by the edge of the field, carefully dripping the medicine in her hand onto the roots of several crops that had just been ripened by the forest turtle's grassy field.

The seedlings, which had been forced to mature to their limit by the grassy field, miraculously began to show new vitality the moment they came into contact with the plant growth agent.

The tender green leaves unfurled at a speed visible to the naked eye, the stems became thicker, and even the flowers bloomed ahead of time, emitting a stronger fragrance than usual.

"Game?"

The forest tortoise noticed something was wrong with Tong Hua and quickly came over to check.

"Hehe." Tong Hua smiled slightly and mysteriously shook the empty bottle in her hand at the forest turtle.

"Impressive, isn't it? This is the medicine I made that can accelerate plant growth."

As Tong Hua spoke, Tian Wuni and Aolinu, who were helping in the field, also curiously came over.

"Huh?" "Fou?"

Sweet Wuni curiously touched the leaf with her little finger, and after feeling the vibrant life force within it, she opened her eyes wide in surprise.

Orion gently inhaled the scent of the blooming flowers, while the olive leaves above his head swayed merrily.

When Tong Hua saw the two adorable little ones, she suddenly had a bold idea.

"I wonder if this plant growth agent will work on plant-type Pokémon."

Tong Hua stroked his chin and began to think. Since the effects of cooking can work on Pokémon, there's no reason why alchemical potions can't work on them.

After a moment of random thoughts, Tong Hua went straight into the kitchen and took out two more bottles of plant growth promoters.

Tong Hua returned to the edge of the field with two bottles of crystal-clear potion, and Tian Wuni and Aolinu curiously gathered around.

"Want to give it a try?"

A few minutes later, Sweetie and Orinyu spat out the medicine in their mouths with strange expressions.

"Pooh----"

-

External application doesn't work, and internal administration doesn't seem to be an option either.

"That's strange, can't it be used like that?" Tong Hua scratched his head, realizing he had made a mistake.

Sweet Wuni frowned, stuck out her tongue exaggeratedly, and kept fanning her mouth with her two little hands, as if she had tasted something terrible.

That's understandable, since mercury was used in the ingredients; it would be strange if it didn't taste odd.

"Fufu----"

Orion seemed a little disappointed. After all, this was specially prepared for them by Tong Hua, and it would be a real shame to waste it like this.

"It's okay, it's just a try anyway."

It's good that you're growing up healthy like this. I was too impatient and had some strange thoughts.

Tong Hua scratched his head sheepishly and gently hugged the two little cuties.

"Ah-ma~" "Fufu~"

Sweetie immediately stopped crying and started laughing, playfully rubbing her little flower on her head against Tong Hua's chin, while Ollie nestled obediently in his arms, making satisfied purring sounds.

"Alright, now that the practice is successful, then—"

Tong Hua went back into the kitchen and looked at another pile of ingredients that had been prepared.

"Tanning leather, copper ore, and the blood of beasts; the latter two are used to make copper enchanted ink."

The copper enchanted ink is used to make tanning glyphs —

Tong Hua recalled the other necessary materials in her mind; if she remembered correctly, they should all be easy to obtain.

"Maple logs, grass threads, lightning shards, and water shards ——————"

As for maple logs, I remember there are still some leftover from when we were doing infrastructure work in the warehouse.

Grass thread is also simple; you can just pluck some grass fibers from the ground and weave them together.

For Water Shards, you can use a water gun from a tanuki. Thunder Shards are a bit more difficult; you might need to ask a pink Celebi to ask an amphioxus for help?

Or try looking for a wild Pichu in the forest; it just needs to know Electric-type moves.

After thinking it over, Tong Hua walked out of the kitchen again and headed straight for the warehouse by the grassland.

"La hoo?"

The two Silavis followed Tong Hua curiously, watching him walk into the warehouse and stroke the dried and preserved logs.

In addition to the maple logs needed to make the Spellbook, there were also some quick-growing logs left over from when we built the Pokémon House.

Tong Hua's hand lingered on the rough maple log for a moment, feeling the solid texture of the wood.

"Speaking of which, since it's about creating a grimoire—"

Could it be that I'm supposed to use this log to make paper?

Tong Hua scratched his head, deciding to prepare all the materials first before considering those matters.

"La beep".

The two Celebi wisely used their telekinesis to lift the log and returned to the kitchen with Tong Hua.

"Oh, right, Little Green and Little Pink," Tong Hua said to the two Celebi.

"La hoo?"

The rabbis floated lightly onto his shoulders, chirping in confusion.

"Could you please ask for the Electric Dragon and the Big-tailed Tanuki? Just tell them I need a little help from them."

"La-hua!" Pink Celebi nodded, leaving a pink trail in the air before disappearing.

"La-hua." Green Celebi nodded as well, then flew quickly towards the pond.

While she was at it, Tong Hua continued to collect the next material: grass thread.

He came to the grassy area next to the field, where Sweetie and Orion were helping the Wood Tortoise tend to the field. When they saw Tong Hua squatting down to pick out grass leaves, the two of them curiously came over.

"Huh?" "Fou?"

"I need some tough grass blades to make weaving material," Tong Hua explained, her fingers gently brushing over several particularly slender grass stems.

Sweetie and Orion immediately understood and skillfully collected the materials for him, thoughtfully categorizing them by length.

When Tong Hua returned to the kitchen carrying a bundle of grass, two Celebi were already waiting at the door with an electric dragon and a takin.

"Mwah!"

The electric dragon greeted us warmly, the orb at the end of its tail emitting a soft glow.

"Thank you for making the special trip to Electric Dragon. How's the research team doing? Are they busy?"

Electric Dragon smiled and shook his head. He was just a mere guild leader; what could he possibly be busy with?

"I heard that you needed help, Tong Hua, so I came here right away with Celebi-chan. But speaking of which, this place has changed a lot."

Tong Hua followed the electric dragon's gaze to the newly renovated ranch and couldn't help but smile proudly.

"Yes, thanks to everyone's help, the new house and dessert shop have been built." He said, taking out a special container. "The main reason I invited you here this time is to make some things that require you to use electric shock techniques at the right time."

Now that everyone's here, let's get started.

After Tong Hua finished speaking, he picked up the distiller hanging on the kitchen wall and instantly switched his profession to alchemist!

A surge of excitement welled up in Tong Hua's heart, causing him to reveal a smile that others might perceive as somewhat neurotic.

After all, the goal we're going to create this time is completely different from the simple alchemy we did with distilled water and plant growth potions before!
