There is uncertainty in the effect of the phantom potion on the stimulation of mental power. After using it, the level of mental power may be increased or decreased. According to statistics, the higher the level of mental power, the greater the probability of failure after using the phantom potion. Mental power above level A must be used with caution.
Cheng Wenkang's mental power level is A-level, and the success rate after using the phantom potion is about 50%, but this refers to the phantom potion on the market. In fact, the efficacy of phantom potions made by different pharmacists will be different, which is also the difference between high-level pharmacists and ordinary pharmacists.
A truly powerful pharmacist can improve the prescription according to the user's own situation, making the phantom potion have a higher success rate. It can even greatly reduce the side effects. If you are lucky, even if your mental power level does not increase after taking the potion, it will not reduce your existing mental power level. This is why Cheng Wenkang wants to use wild phantom blood and find a high-level pharmacist.
However, the probability of using phantom potions to improve mental power above level A will drop significantly, to less than 1%, and side effects are inevitable. Therefore, in the Federation, people with mental power level A+ generally do not use phantom potions to improve their mental power.
Sheng Heng's elder brother and father both have A+ level mental power. It's not like they haven't thought about improving their own mental power level. Every year, the Sheng family even spends a huge amount of money to buy a lot of phantom beasts' blood to refine phantom potions. But after each evaluation, the family pharmacist still doesn't recommend them to take the potion.
“Xiao Hao, Sima Mingxuan was able to use the phantom potion to improve his mental power from A+ to S level. Does that mean that the potion made from the blood of wild phantom beasts will have a much higher success rate?” Admiral Sheng is over fifty years old. Due to long-term use of his mental power, he has suffered many hidden injuries in his sea of consciousness. It is no longer suitable for him to use the phantom potion to improve his mental power, but Sheng Heng wants to fight for his elder brother.
Today he asked Yan Hao to meet alone in a coffee shop outside the school just to consult about this matter.
"The blood of wild phantom beasts can indeed increase the success rate of phantom potions, but it is not 100%. And as I mentioned before, the higher the level of mental power, the more serious the sequelae will be after the mental power level is increased." Yan Hao said, "Although Sima Mingxuan looks fine on the surface, his mental power is easily agitated and he often has headaches. He must take medicine for a long time to control it."
As Yan Hao spoke, he unconsciously mentioned the sequelae that Sima Mingxuan had shown in his previous life. It was not until he noticed Sheng Heng's puzzled look that he realized that he seemed to have said too much. He cleverly made up for it: "Last time on Resource Planet B135, I noticed that his mental power seemed to be unstable."
Sheng Heng's doubtful gaze faded away: "No wonder, he insisted that you prepare a medicine for him last time. He wanted to try whether the medicine you prepared would be useful to him."
Yan Hao breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had gotten away with it.
"It's a good thing you refused. Otherwise, if he knew that the medicine you prepared was effective on him, he would definitely try every means to keep you by his side." Sheng Heng said with some relief.
"You have so much confidence in me." Sheng Heng clearly never said that he could cure Sima Mingxuan, so why was he so sure that the medicine he made would work?
Why hasn’t Xiaohao corrected his lack of confidence?
Sheng Heng was just about to give Yan Hao a good talk and correct his self-deprecation, but when he looked up, he saw Yan Hao with a slightly red face, poking the table with his fingers with a happy expression. He didn't look unconfident at all, but rather a little shy after being praised.
It was the first time Sheng Heng saw him like this, and he just thought he was extremely cute.
"Of course I have confidence in you. You are the most talented mecha maker with potion talent I have ever seen." Sheng Heng praised with a smile.
"Actually, I always thought that I had no talent for alchemy, but last week, my teacher told me that Mr. Wen personally praised me and said that I am very talented." Yan Hao said excitedly.
Sheng Heng understood that it was not a sudden awakening, but the affirmation of the alchemy master.
"Why did you feel that you had no talent for potions before?" Sheng Heng had wanted to ask this question for a long time.
Although Yan Hao is currently studying mecha manufacturing, for now, his talent in medicine is no worse than that of mecha manufacturing. In fact, because he has a deeper understanding of pharmacy, his talent is even more obvious than that of mecha manufacturing. Whether it is the herb bag for treating hand injuries or the advanced sedative model, which one is not a gifted one.
"Because... I only know how to calculate." Yan Hao explained, "In my opinion, pharmacy is a subject that requires innovation and understanding, and I only know how to calculate. I can use formulas to calculate the most suitable ratio of existing medicines according to my needs, but I lack the ability to innovate. I can only improve, not innovate. To put it bluntly, I am just good at math."
"There are many pharmacists in the world who can improve prescriptions, but no pharmacist has the calculation ability like you." Sheng Heng didn't expect Yan Hao to position himself in this way, and couldn't help but said excitedly, "Xiao Hao, you are not just good at math. The Federal University also has a mathematics department, and students from the School of Pharmacy often ask them for help in calculating drug formulas, but no one has the calculation ability like you. Your talent is unique."
"I know now." This is also the reason why Yan Hao suddenly became confident.
In the past, he always felt that he had no talent for making medicines, that he could only copy what others had said, without any innovation or value. But now that he had stepped out and looked back, he realized that he had talent. Just as Sheng Heng said, there were many pharmacists who could improve prescriptions. For example, the improved formula of the Phantom Potion was first published by Yan Fei in his previous life, but that did not mean that he was the only one who could think of this improved formula.
Xia Tianyi even thought of the improved formula two months earlier than Yan Fei. If this happened in the previous life, then the reason why Yan Fei became the first person to publish the improved formula must be because Xia Tianyi was delayed by something and failed to calculate the specific values in the first time.
For example, the senior brothers were all very busy, so they helped Xia Tianyi with the calculation a few months late, or it might be because I calculated for Yan Fei too quickly.
"Old Man Wen wants to take you as his apprentice. He said that your calculation ability is the most scarce ability in pharmacy."
Thinking about what Master Wen said about him, the light in Yan Hao's eyes brightened. It's not that he didn't have talent, but in his previous life, he didn't realize where his talent was. Instead, he thought it was an extremely simple thing that anyone who was good at math could do. And it was precisely because he did it so easily that the people around him also thought it was an easy thing, so they didn't realize his value at all.
In the past two days, he specifically checked the innovative drugs of the School of Pharmacy on the campus network, and then he found that although Yan Fei still had some innovations, compared with his previous life, at least two-thirds less. Yan Hao wondered if this was because he was no longer in the School of Pharmacy? In his previous life, every time Yan Fei had a new idea, the teacher would always let him calculate it to verify it. Now that he was gone, would Yan Fei's ideas be unable to be verified?
When Yan Hao thought of this possibility, his heart surged. Although he had never thought of taking revenge on Yan Fei after his rebirth, he would still be very happy if he could cause trouble to him.
"You should have known this a long time ago." Sheng Heng was relieved. This kid finally knew how good he was.
After thinking through these things, Yan Hao became much more cheerful. He smiled shyly and changed the subject: "If you want to raise your mental power level to S, the success rate is still very high with the improved phantom potion. Xia Tianyi added Bingxuan grass to the prescription and cleverly used the medicinal effects of various herbs to maximize the effect of Bingxuan grass, which can reduce the side effects of mental power activation and increase the success rate at the same time."
"So with this herb, my brother won't suffer from Sima Mingxuan's side effects?" Sheng Heng asked.
"There will still be side effects. When upgrading from A+ to S level, the vibration amplitude of mental power is too great. Except for people like you who are born with it, even some people who have achieved a breakthrough in mental power will have side effects, not to mention those stimulated by drugs. This is unavoidable, the only difference is the severity." Yan Hao said.
Sheng Heng frowned when he heard this. If that was the case, he would not agree with his elder brother using the phantom potion. But he also knew that his elder brother had always wanted to improve his mental power and then represent the family and drive the God of War.
Forget it, once the potion is ready, I’ll give it to my brother and let him choose for himself.
After making the decision, Sheng Heng stopped worrying and asked Yan Hao about his recent study status: "The final exam is coming soon. You have to go to Professor Pang and Professor Zhong's laboratory to study every weekend. How is your preparation for the final exam?"
"The teacher said that my learning progress has almost completed the sophomore courses." Yan Hao said.
"Sophomore? So, next time we go out for a practical assessment, you won't have to spend points to buy parts." Sheng Heng wanted to laugh when he thought of Yan Hao's crazy behavior of earning points at the base last time.
"If you don't want to buy it, I will definitely fix it for you." Yan Hao said confidently.
After laughing for a while, Sheng Heng suddenly remembered something. Yan Hao is now in the second semester of his freshman year and will be a sophomore soon. The partner selection between the Mecha Department and the Mecha Manufacturing Department seems to be about to begin.
"Isn't it about time for you to have interactive classes with the Mecha Department?" Sheng Heng asked.
"Well, it started about a month ago, once a week." Yan Hao said.
Has it already started? Sheng Heng secretly said that he was careless.
"Then there must be a lot of people from the Mecha Department surrounding you." Sheng Heng remembered that when their class first had an interactive class with the Mecha Manufacturing Department, the students in the class tried their best to please the students from the Mecha Manufacturing Department. Sheng Heng felt a sense of crisis when he thought of Yan Hao being surrounded by people like this.
How about just staying one level?
"I didn't go."
"Oh, you didn't go." Wait, what did I just hear?
Sheng Heng suddenly looked up and reconfirmed, "You didn't go?"
"The interactive class is for preparation for choosing partners. I'm already your partner, so it's naturally not appropriate for me to go again." Yan Hao said seriously.
A surge of ecstasy surged from Sheng Heng's heart: "Then...if you don't go, will there be enough people in your class?"
The number of mecha builders is much less than that of mecha warriors, and the ratio is generally 1:5, so one mecha builder is usually paired with five or six mecha warriors. There are not many people, and Yan Hao doesn't want to participate. Generally speaking, the teacher will not agree.
"Our class is the one with the largest number of students in the Mecha Manufacturing Department in the past five years, so my absence is not a big problem. Moreover, Professor Qin said that at my current level, I won't learn anything if I fight in actual combat with mecha warriors of the same grade." Yan Hao said.
At this time, the waiter came over and brought the coffee they ordered: "Here are the coffees you ordered, guys."
"Thanks."
After talking for a long time, Yan Hao felt thirsty, so he took a sip of the coffee. So when Sheng Heng took his cup of coffee from the waiter and turned to look at Yan Hao, there was already a layer of milk foam at the corner of Yan Hao's mouth. Subconsciously, Sheng Heng reached out and wiped it away.
"There is milk foam." At first, Sheng Heng simply wanted to wipe the milk foam off the corners of Yan Hao's mouth, but when the warm and soft touch came from his fingertips, Sheng Heng's eyes suddenly became deep. That kind of deep gaze was something Yan Hao had never seen before, like a black vortex that was about to suck him in.
"I...I'm going to the bathroom." Yan Hao stood up in a panic and ran away without waiting for Sheng Heng to react.
Sheng Heng was stunned at first, then he laughed happily, because Yan Hao was obviously avoiding him. Of course, he shouldn't be happy when being avoided, but for Yan Hao, who was always stupid, this kind of hiding was already a sign of enlightenment, so how could Sheng Heng not be happy.
In the bathroom, Yan Hao looked at his flushed self in the mirror, puzzled: "Strange, why did I run away, and why is my heart beating so fast?"
Yan Hao washed his face with cold water and calmed down a lot. Thinking that Sheng Heng was still waiting for him outside, he turned around and walked out. But when he walked to the door, two figures hugging each other suddenly rolled in from the door. One man pushed the other man against the wall, biting him madly, from his lips to his neck, and unbuttoning his shirt.
Yan Hao had never seen such an exciting scene in his entire life, and he was stunned on the spot.
"Are you a dog? Are you in heat anytime and anywhere?" the man who was being pressed down cursed breathlessly.
"Don't you like it? Your heart is beating so fast."
The man who was pinned down was about to curse when he saw Yan Hao from the corner of his eye and quickly pushed the man on him: "Get out of the way. You scared the kids."
The man turned sideways and saw Yan Hao. He frowned with some dissatisfaction: "I asked you to go to the hotel upstairs with me, but you didn't go."
"I have an appointment to discuss business here. That's enough. We'll talk about it tonight." As he said that, the man turned sideways and began to button his shirt one by one, while glancing at Yan Hao.
Yan Hao seemed to have just reacted at this moment. He said sorry and ran away in a hurry.
"Look how scared the child is." A man's teasing voice came from behind, "When you were his age, you would blush and your heart would beat fast just holding my hand. Now...tsk tsk."
"I've been married for so many years, but I still want to find the feeling of first love."
Blushing and heartbeating, first love? Could it be that I like... like Senior Sheng Heng?
