FATE: Target of Grand Master

"To solve the problem of biological populations, especially for cultivation as food, there are three main issues to address."

After listening to Xia Yan's request, Morgan quickly took some time to return to Moscow, found a warm room in the palace, and started "Morgan's Little Classroom".

The students below are still three: Xia Yan, Ai Lei, and Yuri Ai Li.

Morgan, standing in front of the whiteboard, was dressed in a white shirt and straight-cut short skirt, her long legs encased in black stockings. She had pulled out round-framed glasses from somewhere and put them on her nose. She was moving a metal pointer back and forth on the whiteboard, which was covered with various keywords.

"First, there's the issue of population reproduction. We absolutely cannot overlook the energy required for reproduction; we can't sacrifice the health of the offspring in pursuit of reproductive efficiency. This bottle labeled A contains a powder that can enhance the vitality and reproductive drive of organisms. You can mix it with water at a ratio of 1:1000 and then apply it to the snow in various locations. Oh, and before you apply it, remember to remind the Yaga not to pick up snowflakes and put them in their mouths to quench their thirst."

The pointer was moved down to the second row.

"Secondly, there's the growth rate of the population. While using magic circles to accelerate it is the best method, that's only suitable for captive creatures. For free-range magical beasts like the Roaring Beast, we still need to use potions. That's where this bottle labeled B comes in handy. You can put a lot of this in, mix it with water at a 1:100 ratio, and then drop it onto the snow. Hey, Euryale, don't get distracted!"

Seeing that Euryale was not paying any attention to the lesson, Mr. Morgan simply swung his pointer at her.

"it hurts!"

Euryale covered her head and complained, "Why do I, a goddess, have to learn how to raise livestock?!"

Morgan scoffed and said, "If Xia Yan hadn't spoken up, I wouldn't have bothered teaching you. Look at Ereshkigal, you're both goddesses, but she listens very attentively. Compared to a pampered, useless goddess like you, the mistress of the underworld has a completely different perspective."

Suddenly receiving praise, especially from Morgan, Ellie blushed and lowered her head, somewhat embarrassed. However, the small gesture of her index fingers tapping together betrayed her inner joy.

"Since there are some diligent and eager learners, let the good students do it; I won't keep up."

Euryale turned and left the room in a huff.

"Don't go after them!"

Xia Yan wanted to go out and comfort Yuri Ellie, but Morgan stopped him.

"Let her calm down by herself. My time is precious, and I have a lot of things to do after I finish talking."

As he spoke, Morgan moved his pointer to the third row.

"Thirdly, there's the issue of racial health. Although the A-grade magic powder I've prepared can boost energy, it's not specifically for improving physical constitution. So, this bottle labeled C also needs to be used, at a ratio of one to ten, and the usage is the same as the previous two."

Morgan paused deliberately here, then pushed the whiteboard aside, revealing a complex machine on the table behind it that looked like a combination of distillation flasks and various electronic devices.

"To make it easier for you to mix potions, I've prepared special equipment for you. Just add enough water to the top bottle, then put in the same proportion of magic powder into the powder inlet on the left, and then press the potion mixing button on the control panel. Remember, this machine cannot run empty; you must add water first, then add the powder."

Alright, that concludes today's Morgan's mini-lesson. get out of class dismissed!

Morgan left behind three bottles of powder and continued to complete the tasks Xia Yan had assigned her.

Only Xia Yan and Ai Lei remained in the room.

"Ellie, did you write down the proportions Morgan mentioned earlier?"

"Yes, don't worry, I've taken notes."

Ai Lei confidently showed the notebook to Xia Yan.

"Okay, I'll go get some water. You prepare the potion powder first, and we'll start making the potion in a bit."

"Okay."

After Xia Yan left, Ai Lei poured out a little powder from each of the three bottles, then casually took some snow from outside the windowsill and poured it into the water container.

To prevent herself from mixing up the three powders, Ai Lei also put three bottle labels next to the powder she poured out.

"A is 1 to 1000, B is 1 to 100, C is 1 to 10. Very good, start!"

After clicking on potion preparation, the potion preparation machine will start running automatically.

Watching the blue potion dripping continuously from the lower right corner, Ereshkigal put her hands on her hips and said with satisfaction, "Very good, a mere potion machine is no match for me."

After the test was completed, Ellie was confidently preparing to pour out more powder when she was stunned by the three unlabeled bottles.

Just now, in order to distinguish what the three powders that were poured out were, she casually tore off the label on the bottle. Although she could identify what was poured out, she forgot about what was in the bottle.

Ruined!

What should we do now?!

If I mess it up, will Xia Yan scold me?

Waaah... I don't want Xia Yan to call me a "stupid goddess"!

calm down!

Ereshkigal! Calm down!

you can!

Think about how to remedy the situation now.

Looking at the bottle of potion with the correct proportions, Ereshkigal had an idea.

I just need to mix some of the three types of potion powder again and compare the colors with the previous ones, right?

There are only six possible combinations, you can always figure it out by trying!

So, according to the proportions, Ai Lei poured out some more and immediately turned on the machine.

The color of the first mixing ratio is too light, that's not right!

The color of the second mixing ratio is too dark, that's not right!

Formula three has no color at all, which is even more wrong!

Just as Ai Lei was trying out the fourth configuration option, Xia Yan pushed open the door and walked in.

Looking at the machine that was already running, Xia Yan asked curiously, "Ailee, have you already started preparing potions?"

Startled, the nervous Ai Lei quickly threw the powder in her hand into the machine, then ran over to take the water Xia Yan brought, saying, "I feel like this water isn't enough, Xia Yan, could you go get some more?"

"it is good."

Xia Yan didn't suspect anything and turned to leave.

However, just as Ellie breathed a sigh of relief and was about to pour the water into the machine, the potion-making machine emitted wisps of ominous black smoke.

"Oh no! This is terrible!"

Eresh remembered that Morgan had said earlier that the machine needed water and couldn't run empty. She had been so focused on trying out different configurations that she had forgotten the snow she had put in earlier had melted.

"We're doomed! We're completely finished!"

Eresh rushed to the potion-making machine, trying to turn it off, but looking at the menus, she clutched her head in despair, saying, "I don't understand! Which button do I press to turn it off?!"

After pressing a few buttons haphazardly, Ai Lei discovered that the machine not only didn't turn off, but instead emitted even more black smoke.

At this point, Ereshkigal had completely crashed, her eyes had turned into two mosquito coils, and she could only repeat "I'm doomed" while clutching her head.

boom!

In the end, just as our Underworld mistress predicted, the potion-making machine broke down.

After an explosion, the room was filled with smoke.

Hearing the explosion, Xia Yan rushed back to check the situation, but the moment he entered the room, he was blocked by a soft touch against the door.

Click!

The door lock made a clicking sound.

"Are you alright?"

Xia Yan looked down at Ai Lei, who had rushed into his arms.

"I'm fine."

Ai Lei slowly raised her head, her voice very gentle.

Xia Yan noticed that Ai Lei's cheeks were flushed, her eyes were alluring, and even the air was filled with a faint sweet fragrance.
