My health recovery is incredibly fast.

Xia Zuo took a deep breath.

"puff"

The little white mouse that had been fluttering in my hand stopped moving.

One fatal blow.

Golden Finger sends its congratulations:

"Successfully killed the white mouse, accurately hitting a vital part, and gained an additional 100 experience points, rewarding 0.002 experience points."

"The host has been detected to possess the knowledge reserves of ordinary rodents, and the detection technology is being updated."

Update complete!

"Unlock the health data for normal rats!"

Xia Zuo placed the white mouse in a special glass container to accelerate the loss of its blood, and then used his detection technique on the corpse.

The template now displays the health bar!

Xia Zuo cast a detection spell on Madam Morton, but her health bar remained "???".

He then used the detection technique on the mice in other groups, and without exception, he was able to see the specific blood volume data for each of them.

This book, Anatomy Atlas, encompasses anatomical information on hundreds of non-humanoid creatures, from mice and livestock to wild animals and birds of prey—all common animals are included.

If you memorize their vital parts first, and then make sure to kill them with one blow every time you dissect them, you can unlock the health data of many animal templates!

What if we have anatomy classes for humanoid creatures in the future?

Xia Zuo felt a sudden chill.

"Is it done yet?" Anruer carefully lifted her palm and peeked at the table through the crack. The white mouse lay peacefully in the container.

She looked around.

"Squeak squeak squeak"

A small white mouse with a dissecting needle stuck in its head fell to the ground and struggled, a somewhat gruesome scene.

"what!"

Anru grabbed Xia Zuo's arm with both hands and buried her face in his back.

Xia Zuo's lips twitched as she pinched the numb spot on her elbow. "It's alright, the little white mouse has been taken back."

"Hmm..." Anru'er blushed and released her hands.

Inside the glass container, the mouse's blood is about to be drained.

Xia Zuo picked up a scalpel and tweezers and began to work.

The subsequent dissection process was quite bloody and smelled bad; just looking at it made you feel the slippery texture of the flesh and tissue in your hands.

Anru'er, her face ashen, compared the examples in the anatomical atlas with the anatomical diagrams and recorded the dissection results on the blank notepad.

Xia Zuo felt extremely uncomfortable while dissecting the mice, but as a boy... he had no choice but to grit his teeth and complete all the procedures.

As he placed the last bone on the tray, a message came to his mind:

"The host has successfully dissected a common rodent according to the anatomical atlas, and is rewarded with 0.01 perception points. Repeated dissections of this type of creature will not yield any perception reward."

The last thing that rewarded my perception... was driving a horse-drawn carriage.

Xia Zuo remembered.

Driving the carriage for two or three months will reward you with a total of 1 point of perception, raising your attribute value from 3 to 4.

The situation that followed was similar to training strength with miniature bouncy balls; as driving the carriage became much easier, the rewarded perception value decreased sharply.

Dissecting a common rodent grants a 0.01 point of perception. Dissecting all the creatures on the anatomical atlas will grant a total of at least 1 point of perception!

Happy!

Xia Zuo smirked as he looked at the mangled white mouse. Since An Ru'er was rather timid, he could conveniently take on all the dissection work.

"What's wrong with you? What are you laughing at?" Anru asked, her voice trembling.

Xia Zuo coughed lightly, his expression straightening, and said in a slightly serious tone:

"See? I did a pretty good job, didn't I? I didn't let the lab mice down."

Anru compared his dissection results with those in the book and found that he had indeed done a very good job. His aversion to dissection class lessened considerably.

She nodded with a smile: "Okay! From now on, all the dissection work will be yours."

Chapter 11 Born to Make Poisons (Part 1)

In today's anatomy class, Mrs. Morton, in order to help everyone gradually get used to the impact of flesh and organs, only asked the students to dissect mice and did not bring out any new subjects for dissection.

Encouraged by Xia Zuo, Anru tried to operate it.

After independently dissecting the first one, this girl actually suggested doing another one.

Xia Zuo wondered if he had opened a mysterious window into her soul, awakening a deeper aspect of her personality.

12 o'clock noon.

The two went to the restaurant for a meal, each ordering a steak, pasta, and vegetable soup, completely unburdened by their anatomy class.

Xia Zuo twirled some pasta with his fork and put it in his mouth. "Is oil alchemy difficult to learn?"

"My mentor said that as long as you have a normal sense of smell and wind resistance, this branch of alchemy is easy to master. It should be the easiest of the four branches of alchemy to learn. It will be more difficult if you don't have wind resistance."

Anru wiped her mouth with a tissue, glanced at the center of the dining room where an elemental servant had just brought over a plate of pastries, and said, "I'll go get some desserts. Do you need any?"

Xia Zuo shook his head in response, and after the other party returned, he carefully considered his tone and asked gently:

"Have you always lived alone before?"

Anru gazed at the white clouds in the sky and said forlornly, lost in her memories:

“When I was nine, my parents sent me to a girls’ school in Rosac. In the second week of school, a messenger soldier brought news of their deaths. Fortunately, my parents had some savings, and I lived on their inheritance at the girls’ school. I started learning to paint when I was twelve, and my teacher said I had a good talent. After a few years of learning, I was able to support myself by selling my paintings.”

Xia Zuo lowered his eyes, nodded heavily, and raised his glass. "To our parents, to thank them for giving us life."

Anru raised her glass, "To our parents."

The glasses clinked lightly, and the two finished their drinks.

Xia Zuo stood up with an empty glass in his hand. "What would you like to drink?"

"Hmm... any kind of juice will do." Anru smiled and handed over the empty glass.

The two ate and chatted in the restaurant until 12:30 before returning to their respective dormitories to rest.

Xia Zuo lay on the bed for 10 minutes, then slung his backpack over his shoulder and headed to the alchemy room of the Poison Alchemy Department.

12:50 PM.

He became the first student to arrive at the classroom.

Mentor Kulov was placing various poison bottles on a large square table. "Shazo, you've arrived."

"Good afternoon, Professor Kulov." Shazo bowed in greeting.

Have you read about the separation of toxins?

Kulov carefully placed the last vial of poison down and rolled up his sleeves to his elbows.

"I've already memorized this book."

"Memorized it?"

Kulov looked at the other person and waved his arm toward the table, "Then take a look at the toxins on this table and see how many you recognize."

There are 60 toxin bottles arranged in 6 rows and 10 columns, none of which have labels. The name can only be roughly deduced by observing the color and shape of the contents.

In the first minute, Xia Zuo compared the contents of the poison bottle with the records in his knowledge base.

When he identified the third bottle of poison, he forcibly suppressed the urge to slap his forehead and mentally berated himself for being so stupid. Why didn't he just use the detection technique?

The skill "Detection" is an amazing ability when it comes to identification!

As long as the knowledge and perception are adequate, the results can be accurately fed back, completely eliminating the need for thinking.

Xia Zuo pinched his chin, pretending to gradually get into the zone, and slowly increased the speed of his identification.

These 60 bottles of toxins are the basic toxins in the four major toxin categories. When combined with each other, they can produce compound toxins with different effects.

By mixing complex toxins with specific solvents, poisons can be created.

The process of preparing the poison is relatively simple.
