This was a genuine admiration for Link Grande’s talent in Potion Study and a true belief that Link Grande was worth cultivating. It was also a sincere recognition that Jasmine Kidman had some excellent qualities. Only then did the Serene Wizard offer some advice.
For an average person, let along offering guidance, there was not even a brief farewell party.
“Without further words, I wish you all the brightest future!
The Serene Wizard sipped from her cup, ending this brief but heartfelt farewell party.
Everyone followed suit, drinking up their wine.
After that, they all left the room, leaving the potion shop.
Heading north or east, driving themselves or taking the subway, each went their separate ways.
Such is life – meetings are frequent, partings are few.
“Is it over just like that?”
Upon returning to the academy in silence, Jasmine finally sighed, “It feels like
the first day of work happened just yesterday.”
“Yes, it’s over just like that.”
Link replied calmly, “It has been a tiring period. Rest well for a few days and recover. We must not stay tense all the time.”
“Indeed.”
Jasmine nodded, took a deep breath, and felt a sense of loss.
She did not know where this emotion came from or why she felt this way.
She felt that her experience in the past month had been much more complicated than the previous four months, and she had gained much more.
There was a light sense of reluctance and confusion.
But soon, Jasmine dismissed these emotions from her heart.
She promised to be brave, how could she be emotional?
She took big strides, heading up the stairs back to her dormitory.
She indeed needed rest.
As for Link, let him do whatever he wants.
She couldn’t figure him out and didn’t bother to.
She would deal with it after rest.
After leaving Jasmine at her dormitory, Link headed towards the basement laboratory of the research building.
In the lab, Link took out pre-prepared materials – glasswort herb leaf extract, sleepy flower powder, pure water, bitterroot scent, and several other plant fragrances.
The development and brewing of potions were equally important in Link’s plans.
Through his experience with the Glasswort Series, including aromatherapy essential oils, fragrances, and perfumes, Link had gained some experience in Potion Study.
But when it came to brewing potions, Link was still a complete novice. The popularity of the Glasswort Series, leading to a rush of purchase, was not just because of its novelty or the influence of the witches’ rights movement, it was also because the Serene Wizard had touched it and elevated it in every aspect.
Link hadn’t properly brewed even one bottle of the finished product yet. But after working part-time for a month and a half, from the pre-treatment of plants and herbs, to precision processing, to potion packaging, to watching the Serene Wizard brew potions a few times when he was free, Link felt that he could now try to brew potions on his own.
It’s better to do what you’re good at.
The Glasswort Series was the most suitable for practice.
After adjusting the parameters of several key devices, Link poured the glasswort herb leaf extract into the crucible and heated it to boiling. At the same time, he put the sleepy flower powder into a reactor engraved with an Alchemy Runes Array. Following the requirements, Link steadily input a certain frequency and amount of spiritual power and magic power.
This process was an extension and elevation of Link’s thought process by the Serene Wizard.
The sleepy flower is a common plant. Treated with the usual methods of Potion Study, it might have a certain effect on wizard apprentices, but not much.
Let alone dealing with official wizards.
Sublimated through the Alchemy Runes Array, the effectiveness of the sleepy flower powder is improved. As an auxiliary ingredient in the potion, it becomes completely qualified.
The sleepy flower powder needs to undergo a long period of alchemy reaction.
Link turned back to deal with the boiling glasswort herb leaf extract. He filtered out the impurities, let it cool naturally, treated it again, and then crystallized it.
He ground the leaf extract crystals into powder, added it to the main reactor engraved with a group of Alchemy Runes Array, and inputted a certain frequency and amount of spiritual power and magic power to preheat it for fifteen minutes.
This step was also added by the Serene Wizard.
It can maximize the function of the glasswort herb leaf extract.
The positive impact on meditation is much higher when compared to the effect of the standard Potion Study method.
After the preheating was completed, the sleepy flower powder was ready and was transferred into the main reactor.
He added five times as much pure water, patiently simmered it for two hours, and he got the concentrated solution of glasswort herb aromatherapy essential oil.
After doing all this, Link took a short break and continued the brewing of the glasswort fragrance and perfume.
Late at night, in the early morning.
Link finally finished his first official potion brewing.
The concentrated solutions of glasswort aromatherapy essential oil, fragrance, and perfume were placed in three large glass jars, lined up in front of Link. He sucked one drop of the solution from each glass jar and put it into the instrument for detection.
A moment later, the test results came out.
Link carefully read all the data, feeling both satisfied and a little regretful. He was satisfied because the three solutions had met the qualified standard, and they could be diluted and packaged before being put on the market. The regret was that some of the data indicators were lower than expected, and the problems were caused by Link’s brewing technique.
“I still need to keep working hard.”
Mumbling to himself, Link continued his work.
He diluted and packaged each solution and put them in the refrigeration equipment.
He then cleaned each of the used devices and instruments in the laboratory and ordered the intelligent puppet to clean up.
Only when the laboratory was cleaned and the items were categorized did Link change his clothes and return to his dormitory.
After washing up, meditating deeply, Link went straight into a deep sleep.
He slept until dawn.
Cleaning himself up, Link came to his study.
Spreading out paper and pen and recalling the process, mistakes, insights, and experiences of brewing potions for the first time, Link started writing.
From preparing raw materials, adjusting the parameters of the brewing equipment, to dealing with the ingredients, the main ingredients, the Potion Study methods and Alchemical Formula Techniques needed, to important notes and his own brewing knowledge, he wrote it all down.
Listing the main points and analyzing in detail, jasmine could learn it easily if she devoted time, energy and critical thinking. When one person achieves success, his whole environment also prospered, it was very much like that.
