Chapter 66: Anatomy (Second Update)
Chapter 66
The furnace, the potion garden, the core area.
Lynn stood in front of his workstation, skillfully calling up the relevant information of "Overnight Rejuvenation" and quietly refining the last potion of the day.
The leaping of the potion liquid was reflected in his focused eyes, but his thoughts had already drifted away.
A month had passed since I signed the contract with Rosalind.
During this period, the various hidden dangers that he had worried about never surfaced.
Lin En initially thought that there would be a bigger trap hidden behind the contract, but it turned out that his worries seemed unnecessary.
During the past month, he had spent most of his time translating the Blue Sky Meditation Method and had almost given up any chance to earn extra money.
After completing his tasks on time every day, he immersed himself in deciphering the complex wizard language.
Finally, he successfully interpreted all the content of the apprenticeship stage yesterday.
But those hypothetical crises never occurred.
However, the things he imagined did not happen, which means that either the teacher did not leave a trap, or the trap has not yet appeared.
"It could also be that I am not strong enough now? Never mind, let future Lin En handle everything..."
Lynn thought back to his original analysis and weighed the pros and cons before deciding to sign the contract.
If he had not signed the contract, he would have to look everywhere for advanced meditation methods, which would have taken up a lot of time and energy.
Now, he was able to stay in the potion garden and focus on brewing potions and improving himself, which was the best choice.
"bite!"
A crisp sound brought Lynn back to reality.
He put the "Overnight Rejuvenation" potion he had just sealed into a glass bottle and carefully placed it aside.
Today's refining task ends here.
Yesterday, he finally completed the translation of the entire apprentice volume of "Blue Sky Meditation Method", so he didn't have to spend time studying the lengthy wizard language today.
"Let's do something else today."
Lynn whispered to herself, a relaxed smile on her face.
He had already planned to brew a special potion to take care of Xiaolu.
This matter had been prepared a month ago, but was forced to be put on hold due to the appearance of Rosalind and the Blue Sky Meditation Method.
“We can finally continue.” Lynn rolled up his sleeves and skillfully sorted out the potion materials, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
He placed all kinds of materials neatly in front of him and checked them one by one: "Ten grams of Tian'e wood powder, ten grams of blood amber pulp..."
Finally, he carefully took out the most important ingredient, a pink watermelon.
The watermelon looked ordinary, but Lynn was extremely cautious.
He took a deep breath and cut gently with the sharp blade.
As the blade passed, the watermelon split into two halves, revealing an amazing interior: the flesh did not exist, but instead there were miniature rooms, as exquisite as works of art.
And in these rooms, there live five green elves that are only the size of fingers!
The elves were startled in an instant, their eyes widened, their wings vibrated rapidly, and their screams were like needles piercing the eardrums, as if glass was scratched by a sharp object, making people feel uncomfortable.
But Lynn was obviously prepared. He quickly cast out a special net, caught the five fleeing elves one by one, and tied them to a fixed device prepared in advance.
These elves have different shapes, delicate features and slender bodies, which completely meet the aesthetic standards of humans.
This is not because the elves are naturally beautiful, but the result of artificial selection and careful breeding.
The merchant who sold it to Lin En once boasted that these five elves included all types, from mature women to lolita. In the end, he used this gimmick, combined with the other party's lewd faces, and took a full 300 points from Lin En.
Lin En gently picked up one of them and looked at her charming face, which was now full of fear, and her mouth uttered a series of Elvish words that he could not understand.
Lin En has not yet studied Elvish and only knows a little bit, so he can vaguely hear that the other party seems to be scolding him.
But he didn't care. Instead, he looked sharp and meticulously at the species in front of him.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and said to himself, "Is this what the unscrupulous businessman calls the 'queer lady type'?"
He secured the elf, put on a new pair of gloves, picked up a silver knife and tweezers, and prepared to start processing the experimental materials.
"It turns out that the blood of elves is green..."
Lin En muttered in a low voice, his eyes full of curiosity, "But this may be a characteristic unique to garden elves. What color is the blood of other kinds of elves... we'll have to do an autopsy to find out."
He concentrated on decomposing and analyzing, and the blade moved lightly over the body of the mature lady-type elf without any hesitation.
Although these elves have human appearance and body shape, in Lin En's eyes, they are just experimental materials, no different from ordinary potion materials.
Blood, wings, bones... every part was carefully peeled off and classified.
Since coming to this world, Lynn has completely integrated into the role of a great wizard.
Not only did he feel no discomfort when dealing with these anthropomorphic materials, but he was also excited by the possibilities of exploring new materials.
Although this was Lin En's first attempt to brew this unnamed maintenance potion, as a senior apprentice potion master, he had already mastered the brewing methods of many kinds of potions.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Therefore, he was very calm when handling the materials, his steps were smooth and there was no panic.
When the last step came, he carefully injected energy factors in order to harmonize the overall state of the potion.
"The first time..." Lin En whispered to himself, concentrating his mental strength and closely observing the changes in the potion.
The base liquid in the beaker was pink. He added the green elf material and then added energy factors.
However, the expected phenomenon of the orange light disappearing and the green scenery returning did not occur.
Failed.
"Again!" Lynn gritted his teeth and continued to concentrate on making the potion.
He tried again and again, and although he failed repeatedly, his proficiency in refining was constantly improving.
He felt that success seemed within reach.
However, at this moment, a piece of news interrupted his concentration.
His fellow workers gathered together, their faces heavy, talking in low voices.
The content of the message made everyone feel heavy:
Lord Rand, who had resigned from his job at the Potion Garden a month ago, resolutely went to the battlefield in order to accumulate military merits in exchange for resources to become a formal wizard.
However, just one month later, news came that Rand had died in the Crucible War.
"A month ago he was still chatting and laughing with us, who would have thought..."
"Alas, I knew the battlefield was too dangerous. It's safer to stay in the Furnace Garden..."
"I heard that only a quarter of the body was left, all of which were eaten by monsters. It was too tragic..."
"Alas, death... expected."
Lynn had no ill feelings towards Lord Rand. He had an easy-going personality and got along well with apprentices like them.
However, Rand has now become one of the countless dead souls on the Crucible Battlefield.
Today, they still mourn Rand's passing and murmur in remembrance.
However, as time goes by, Rand's name, face, and even traces of his existence will gradually become blurred and eventually forgotten by everyone.
The wizard's path of cultivation is a long journey to the truth, and both sides of this road are already filled with the corpses of martyrs.
Lynn took a deep breath.
He didn't want to become a dead soul lying on the roadside.
He wants to go further.
After adjusting his mindset, he devoted himself again to refining the potion, his eyes sharp and his focus as before.
