Due to insufficient perception and knowledge reserves, more information was not obtained.

..

Wow, 15 points of charm.

Xia Zuo glanced at the classmates around him with a sly smile.

Even Anjou was staring at Beatrice's figure. Needless to say, the boys were even more so.

It truly can be described as appealing to both men and women.

Of course, for women, Beatrice's appeal lies in its skincare and pampering.

Maintaining beauty and figure is always a focus of attention for women.

Beatrice walked to the front of the podium, leaned lazily against the edge of the table, crossed her arms to support her ample bosom, and said with a leisurely smile:

“I am Beatrice, the head of the Starry Night Academy and your alchemical linguistics teacher. Now, let me check your self-study progress.”

As the clear, gentle words were spoken, the alchemical linguistics manual placed in front of the students began to turn on its own.

The rustling sound of pages turning was frequent yet brief.

Two seconds later, the more than one hundred books in the classroom were neatly closed.

"Some students are making great progress. You can study other classic texts on your own, as long as you don't disturb the other students."

"The other students are all at about the same pace, so let's go straight to learning tenses."

Beatrice snapped her fingers lightly.

The wall behind the podium sank rapidly, revealing a grand alchemy room filled with complete instruments and numerous display cases.

"I'll use the simplest alchemical potion to demonstrate the role of tense to you."

Several bundles of herbs and several medicine bottles floated over from the display case and hovered in mid-air behind the podium.

"The Satiety Gel is the first functional potion you will learn about in your Alchemy course. These are its raw materials."

Behind Beatrice, a shimmering expanse of fine silver sand materialized from nowhere, forming lines of text in the air that described the effects of the satiety potion, along with the names of the raw materials and the quantities required.

Xia Zuo had seen satiating gel at the pharmacy.

The book *Alchemy Linguistics* also uses this potion as an example to explain tense grammar.

This is a medicine with relatively few processes and required raw materials, but the raw materials are not easy to obtain.

Each standard dose of the satiety gel provides a feeling of fullness for 7 days. In simpler terms, eating one piece of the gel allows you to go 7 days without food, but you still need to drink water as usual.

It provides several times the eating experience reward of ordinary dishes, and can continuously provide eating experience for 7 days.

The principle behind satiety gels is not complicated.

It slowly releases nutrients into the body, keeping the stomach constantly in a state of food digestion.

Extracting nutrients is a simple alchemical process that can be completed independently by novice potion alchemists with the necessary tools.

However, the biggest challenge in developing satiety agents is how to ensure that nutrients can survive in stomach acid without causing stomach discomfort or being prematurely expelled.

This requires the use of the digestive cavity mucosa of the cage-eating flower.

Cage flowers attract insects, flies, and even small birds with their brightly colored petals and exotic fragrance.

The moment an object comes into contact with a flower, it opens its mouthparts, disguised as a flower stamen, and swallows the object whole, transporting it to its digestive cavity buried in the soil.

The object will struggle inside the cavity, but ultimately cannot escape suffocation and slow decomposition.

Alchemists cultivate cage-eating flowers, harvesting them every five years. They process their mucus into a gelatinous outer layer that encapsulates nutrients, perfectly solving the problem of making satiating potions.

The extraction of nutrients and the production of the gel-like coating must be carried out simultaneously.

The materials of alchemical tools, as well as the temperature and humidity of the alchemical environment, can affect the appearance characteristics of products at different processes and stages.

Therefore, a timeline cannot be simply used to guide alchemists on what to do and when.

The tense grammar of alchemical languages ​​then came in handy.

Beatrice lectured while demonstrating the alchemical apparatus behind her, bringing lifeless words to life.

But the content is similar to that in the book.

Xia Zuo listened for a while, then lowered his head to read the magic herb catalog, no longer admiring the fluttering potion bottles and the silver sand woven with explanatory words.

After the first class, he called out to Anruer and moved to a seat in the last corner of the last row by himself to avoid disturbing others with his actions of flipping through books and taking notes.

Beatrice is powerful enough to access everyone's books at the same time, so any pretense would be futile. She might as well just accept the "top student" label and devote herself entirely to self-study.

Rote memorization, this ancient skill inherited from the previous life, officially began to shine at Starry Night Academy.

Chapter 10: Anatomy Reward (Bonus Chapter for Donations)

9 o'clock in the morning.

The Alchemy Language Class has ended.

Xia Zuo did not receive any experience rewards from teaching.

That makes sense, the purpose of attending class is to memorize the knowledge in the textbook.

He has taught himself alchemy and languages, so he will certainly not receive the reward of the Book of Memories again.

Today's second class is anatomy, which requires us to go to Mrs. Morton's alchemy area. Before class, we were given the basic textbook for this course, the Atlas of Anatomy.

The class requires students to dissect some organisms, and it's scheduled before lunch, so it's particularly effective for weight loss.

In the dissection room built with transparent glass, Xia Zuo and Anruer shared a dissection table.

Mrs. Morton stood beside the podium, on which was a cage of white mice.

She is a professor of alchemy, tonics and healing medicines, and has light blond hair like Marsmorton.

He had a pointed chin, light blue eyes, a stern face, and a cold smile at the corner of his mouth. The men and women who were swept by his gaze felt an inexplicable chill.

Xia Zuo's throat bobbed, and he swallowed hard, finding it hard to believe that this somewhat sinister-looking Mrs. Morton was Mars's mother.

"Time's up. Let's begin class."

Mrs. Morton rested her arms on the podium and spoke calmly:

“I am your anatomy teacher. Before you become mage apprentices, your dissection tools are scalpels, needles, scissors, and tweezers, which are specifically for dissection.”

She picked up the white gloves from the table and put them on calmly. "I will use these tools for the demonstration as well, instead of spells."

"Snapped!"

The waterproof and oil-resistant leather gloves fit snugly against the palm, making a crisp sound.

"You can assign the dissection and recording tasks yourselves."

Anru stared hesitantly at the white rat cage in front of her.

She paints people, animals, and natural landscapes, and never thought that one day she would dissect the creatures that appear in her paintings.

"Xia Zuo, why don't you do the knife?"

"No problem. You just need to take notes for me."

Xia Zuo pushed the notepad and pen on the table toward the other person, and pulled the tray containing the dissection tools toward himself.

This course is highly practical. Gaining experience through regular classes is much easier than rote memorization.

One minute later, the tasks were assigned to each group.

Mrs. Morton manipulated a white mouse, making it levitate in mid-air:

"We dissect living beings to better study alchemy, not to inflict cruelty; this must always be remembered."

"Now, everyone turn to page 11 of the anatomical atlas."

This page contains anatomical diagrams of mice, explanations of the dissection process, and an introduction to the physiological structure of common rodents.

The first step in an autopsy is to completely render the target unconscious without causing pain.

Mrs. Morton picked up the dissecting needle and aimed it at the white mouse in the air:

"Watch how I hold the needle, where I insert it, and at what angle. You can use a little more force, but the most important thing is to exert force instantly and without hesitation."

She changed her position and the direction of the white mouse so that all students could imitate it accurately.

"puff"

A sharp, piercing sound rang out, and the lively, flailing white mouse limply hung its limbs.

"Try it yourselves."

Mrs. Morton waved her hand, and the blood flowing from the mouse's wound flew into the glass bottle on the table.

Xia Zuo carefully read through the contents of page 11, memorizing the vital parts of the white mouse.

Next, he held the mouse's body with his left hand, gently stroked its head with his right hand, picked up the dissecting needle, and gestured a few times to find the correct insertion point.

"Ugh..." Anru covered her eyes and turned her head to the other side.
