Chapter 87 Success
Thanks to the favor and arrangement of that teacher Atilicia who had already been ‘arrested’ by the Drow in the Dark Regions before she left.
In the next half a month after he ‘lost his mind and left without saying goodbye’, David was originally faced with such things before coming here:
About how to steal the Hundred Years Incense Pollen?
Where to find a suitable temporary alchemy workshop?
And how to complete the potion configuration within three hours of the pollen’s pharmacological failure?
And will not be patrolled by the city’s magistrates through the odor of the alchemy exhaust gas found?
And so on a series of many questions and problems.
Only later did David realize, somewhat confused, that all of these are now no longer a problem.
With the temporary permission granted by Priest Atilicia, David was able to enter and exit freely in the Silver Archduke’s alchemy workshop.
Although those alchemists of course couldn’t let the ‘three Drow’ and barbarians under his command into the alchemy workshop, Davy, who had already utilized his three powers to copy and memorize the entire process of making the sobriety potion by Master Atilicia, already had the qualifications to start making the sobriety potion and even the Anger Combination on his own.
So in the next half a month, David, who returned from the luncheon at the Silver Castle, directly entered the alchemy room that belonged to the private space of Master Atilicia.
Then in this fully equipped, fresh raw materials, with the group of alchemists only a wall away from the place, began their own manufacturing potion smuggling start.
Of course, even if he had already reproduced the manufacturing process, it was still a bit difficult for him to let a white man who hadn’t learned anything related to alchemy get his claws on it directly.
One of the biggest problems he faced at the beginning was the operation.
Atilicia master is a ‘high elf’, and he David is a dragon, although his juvenile size is now only two circles larger than an adult northeast tiger, but the dragon’s claws compared to the hands of humanoid creatures, in the operation of the stability and fineness of the gap is still a little.
This was still based on the premise that when David had evolved himself towards the Heavenly Wisdom Dragon template in the first place, he had incidentally evolved both of his claws along with it, making it easier to grip items such as weapons, scepters, and the like.
He couldn’t possibly degrade his claws back to a mammal or simply use [Envy] to become humanoid just to dispense a potion, could he? Wouldn’t that be putting the cart before the horse?
[Arrogance]
But David quickly found an alternative:
That was to utilize his relatively more flexible forked tongue and tail to directly replace his relatively bulky claws.
This breakthrough in logic allowed David to kick his way into alchemy.
With the Atilicia master’s production process in the memory palace to repeatedly refer to the comparison, encountered a bad solution to the problem David can directly go out the door and turn right to find five alchemists face to face to ask for advice.
The latter felt that running around was a bit time-consuming and troublesome, so he simply rang the bell directly on the workbench as Priest Atilicia did.
Originally, David was still hesitant to do so, will not appear too [arrogant] and disrespectful to the elders, thus leading to the five alchemists simply do not care about him.
But then he realized that he had thought wrong.
Those five alchemists who can be treated with courtesy by all the major nobles in the entire new continent of Granier, not only were they attentive and even overly enthusiastic, but they even quarreled directly with the High Elf military department because they always came in together to delay the progress of the production of the potion order.
Seeing the situation actually developed into such David, simply directly to the five alchemists to get a shift schedule posted in the alchemy workshop into the door:
Every day an alchemist is responsible for serving, ah no, specifically responsible for guiding this silver young dragon to learn the way of alchemy.
This situation, this row, this bullish attitude, really is that the original still some watching the alchemy apprentices look that called a dumbfounded.
And David that completely take five alchemy masters as a servant to call, that stock from the inside out exudes the [arrogance], all the more let the elves confirmed the original that speculation:
This silver young dragon that made Master Atilicia want to beg him to be under his name but couldn’t, I’m afraid that it’s a big head that’s a bit scary.
So in addition to the five exceptionally attentive alchemists, a group of hundreds of alchemy apprentices who do not see several times a day also began to think of ways to curry favor with David on their knees.
In this entire alchemy workshop will be placed in the year he Atilicia masters can not enjoy the super-specification treatment, originally also in the spirit of humility to ask for advice David, was accustomed to the tail directly up to the sky.
And under this all-round cooperation teaching, originally ‘hung’ David in the alchemy way, no, should say in the configuration of sober potions on the road, that is really a soaring, in situ rise.
After formally entering this mode of learning or rather imitating reduction.
In the first hour and fifteen minutes, David relied on himself to process, grind, and extract the raw materials to a level where he could refine the potion. (It generally takes three months to two years for an ordinary apprentice with basic knowledge to master this elementary process, and the most time-consuming and labor-intensive part of the process is the knowledge of the properties of the various raw materials and the different treatment methods.)
Third hour and six minutes: David has mastered the water vaporization purification method, and has reached a preliminary level of proficiency. (An ordinary apprenticeship takes six months to three years.)
The sixth hour and thirty-three minutes: David will be purified water boiling, plus purified raw materials dissolved, continue to heat to boiling, while hot filtered to get a single original slurry, will be dealt with after a hundred years of incense pollen into the together with the coupler to join the mixing, coupler stable, no signs of leakage. (This is already a process that only a junior alchemist can get his hands on and master.)
These kinds of ‘learning progress’ that could be described as horrifyingly metaphysical directly made that alchemist in charge of the first day’s rotation go from being initially surprised, amazed, shocked, horrified, and numb, to being overly excited because of it.
Comparing his own life of alchemical fulfillment, the
Gradually, his three views began to blow up, to
To the point where he began to wonder if he was actually an incompetent fool to the extreme, to
So much so that such a stupid idiot himself actually chose to learn alchemy in the end is not a mistake in the waste of time and nosebleed a spray.
Directly on the spot brain hemorrhage and fainted. It was not easy to wait for some headaches David rang the bell will be this ‘fuss’ alchemist replaced down, this should be the next day door to door counseling alchemist when you see David has been in the beginning of the raw material processing is completed directly after the start of the coupling, the heart is almost scared of the direct stopping.
He didn’t forget that if it wasn’t for Atilicia’s direct magical intervention to stop the material polymerization process on the first day of this guy’s visit, half of the workshop might have been blown up into the sky.
But as a result, after waiting for half a day, after realizing that David not only operated in a decent manner but also did not have any signs of overreaction leading to uncontrolled air pressure, this after-knowledge alchemist immediately pointed at David’s back ‘ah ah ah ah ah’ half a day and did not say half a complete sentence, and the veins on his forehead began to ripple.
After hurriedly taking a bottle of fast-acting antihypertensive medicine that he had with him, only then did he calm down his shocked mood, and dismayedly accepted that this silver dragon in front of him had actually gone through the process of learning and repeated experiments that he had gone through for eight years after graduating from the Magic Academy’s School of Alchemy in a matter of just half a day!
It was not until this moment that he finally understood why Selsey, who was his colleague and superior, had fainted directly on the spot with a spurt of blood.
He also finally understood why such a master who had already made dazzling achievements in the field of alchemy like Atilicia actually begged to be taken back under his tutelage, and after being rejected, he left on his own in a state of disillusionment, to calm his own traumatized mind.
He also finally saw what is called a true alchemy genius!
As well as realize, compared with the true meaning of genius, as a mortal himself, is so small, and powerless!
Fortunately, he was old, and had already seen the ‘genius’ of Master Attilicia, and did not have the heart to win, and only wanted to stay in this alchemy workshop to make a living and feed his family, so he did not have his ‘heart shattered’ as Selsey did.
It was also something that slightly comforted him.
Another thing that made him relieved was that until the bell rang at the end of the workshop, this genius who didn’t know which Silver Dragon Clan he came from, finally didn’t directly stage a one-day refining of a sobriety potion – this kind of outrageous thing that he couldn’t even dream of coming up with.
And because when he left the workshop, that silver dragon, His Excellency Safistuin, didn’t ask him to ‘keep it a secret’ either.
So the outrageous things about why Master Selsey fainted with a spurt of blood, and about how David, a once-in-a-thousand-years, rare alchemy genius, had surpassed the eight-year learning progress of this fool, who had once been praised by the academy as a ‘genius,’ in a single day, spread through word of mouth, and spread throughout the apprentices of the workshop, and even to the small, well-informed apprentices of the workshop.
spread to the small half of the well-informed Devonshire hierarchy.
One of its very direct results was:
Early the next morning, in this alchemy workshop of the Silver Grand Duke, Master Selsey, along with at least a quarter of the alchemy apprentices, handed in their resignations to the Silver Grand Duke.
The reason is also very simple, when a completely beyond the cognition of the genius suddenly appeared in their own side, and with a kind of existing three views can not completely understand the speed beyond their one or two decades or even decades of learning progress and achievements, for the ordinary creatures of the heart of learning and even self-confidence, that is a kind of downward pressure crushing type of terrible blow.
Especially for the kind of apprentices who had once been hailed as ‘geniuses’ and had a strong desire to win.
As for Master Selsey, although it was true that he couldn’t accept it, but he really hurt his brain this time, and needed to leave for a period of time to recuperate quietly at home for a while.
Another equally realistic result was:
Early the next morning, the Silver Grand Duke’s desktop was like snowflakes drifting in all kinds of invitations and letters.
The road in front of the fountain garden outside the Silver Fortress was also filled with carriages that had sped in overnight from all over the world and even from Devonshire with their stewards and beloveds representing the various nobles.
They had only one purpose:
To meet with His Excellency Safistuin, who was studying alchemy here.
They hoped to invite him to their own domain to continue his ‘education’ with conditions that would be ‘hard to refuse’ for a dragon.
The Silver Grand Duke, who also received the news last night, how could he not know what these guys were thinking, and the Silver Grand Duke, who was in a bad mood because of the headache caused by Attilicia’s ‘leaving without saying goodbye’, ordered the butler to ‘invite’ these guys out of the territory, and returned the entire territory to David. The whole territory and David a quiet.
But what no one knows is that while everyone was resting at night, David, who is a dragon, didn’t even return to the ‘dragon nest guest room for dragons’ arranged by the Silver Fortress to rest, but stayed up all night just like his father, Atilicia, who locked himself up in the Private Dragon Alchemy Room of the Temple of Justice that night.
And before the crowd of alchemists were about to go to work on the following day, that is, at 7:13 in the morning of the following day:
In front of David was a test tube dose of 8 milliliters of a slightly cloudy colored potion.
A bottle of potion that, although a little less pure.
But it still contained the active ingredient.
It was barely qualified.
“Sobering Potion
At this moment, according to David, he came to this alchemy workshop to start ‘learning’.
Strictly speaking, it had only been twenty-one hours and fourteen minutes.
In the true sense of the word.
Less than a day.
