Chapter 176: Configuring the Bear Spirit Bile Potion
After completing the actual combat data testing of the Eye of Perseus, Locke immediately spent eight hours to quickly write four articles.
One is a report on magic plant data submitted to the combat department of Lilith’s hut for use in the competition; one is a research report on magic plants that can defend against a specific magic – curse magic; and one is a practical method of using magic vines and grafting to cultivate the ability of magic plants to defend against magical counterattacks, as well as various techniques to increase the success rate of this method.
The last article is about the purifying ability of the Eye of Perseus when it rebounds curse magic, and its specific mechanism of damage to vampires.
In short, one experiment or one product can produce a bunch of high-value articles. Locke can even assign some less important parts to the three students he teaches under him, so that they can also get some low-scoring articles.
Locke had examined Howard who was in a coma and confirmed that the damage caused by the purifying energy of this plant magic to vampires was based on two forms of damage.
One is a structure similar to holy magic, and the other is a structure similar to dispel magic.
After carefully considering his words, Locke concluded his article by writing, “The purifying energy of the Eye of Perseus is more akin to the way life magic restrains undead creatures like vampires. It’s a natural evolution of life as it adapts to the concept of the vampire curse.”
This purifying energy has similar effects to holy magic, causing burning damage to vampires, but this damage is milder than holy magic. It also possesses a dispelling property that holy magic lacks, namely, dispelling the blood curse energy entangled in the vampire’s blood, restoring the vampire’s blood to its original state.
‘That is, returning to a state close to human blood.’
“I believe the appearance of the Eye of Perseus proves that after enduring the devastation of negative energy magic for a long time, the natural environment will automatically adapt to this magic and develop corresponding restraining mechanisms. This is part of the natural ecological chain. The Eye of Perseus lichen itself is a proof of this possibility.”
Locke’s last paragraph was intended to propose a future development direction in the article, that is, to continue research based on the Eye of Perseus lichen, perhaps a magical plant system that can specifically restrain curse magic, or even an ecological environment, can be developed, and a series of plant magic that can specifically restrain curses can be derived.
Of course, this direction is too big, and it is impossible for one person to accomplish it with his current abilities.
Locke didn’t think about doing it right away. He just elevated the status of his Eye of Perseus lichen at the end of the article.
As for imagination, there is no limit to this kind of thing.
But this kind of thing can enhance the value of the Eye of Perseus lichen in the eyes of general scholars and people who read this article.
Also, try to improve the evaluation score of your article as much as possible.
The difference between B-level and A-level can be huge.
There are many people who have published many B-level articles, but do not even have a single A-level article.
Moreover, this idea is just a simple inspiration at present. Perhaps someone will read this article in the future and happen to have related interests or hobbies, or have a foundation, and then they can thoroughly implement my ideas.
This is also the significance of the article system of the White Wizard Society.
After writing these four articles, Locke stood up and stretched his muscles. He was about to go to bed, but when he looked up, he found that it was already dawn outside the window and there was the sound of roosters crowing.
“It’s actually so late, it’s already the next morning.” Locke rubbed his temples. Although wizards have very strong mental strength, they can withstand even without sleep for several months.
However, meditation methods have a serious warning: it is best to sleep ten days every month while using meditation methods.
Otherwise, there will be a crisis of mutation of [Sleepy Ghost].
As a result, after finishing writing four articles, it was already the next day, so Locke didn’t want to sleep anymore.
Anyway, even if you sleep one day less in a month and only sleep for nine days, it won’t have much impact.
One cannot get too hung up on such details.
“But sleep is still very important.” Locke rubbed his forehead and said, “In that case, let’s finish refining the Bear Spirit Bile Potion first.”
“This potion is probably the most complicated one I’ve made besides the Lesser Emerald Potion.”
“I can write a few more articles.”
Locke has now entered a period of rapid development with articles being published quickly. The research content accumulated over the past six months will quickly produce many results during this period, and these results can be transformed into many high-scoring articles.
Locke first went to the plantation, collected an emerald iris lichen and an eye of Perseus, and then returned to his simple laboratory.
There is a set of simple laboratory equipment in the academy, which is a benefit provided to first-class wizard apprentices. It is a set of simple basic potion-making equipment. Although it is not very easy to use, it is enough for experiments.
In the laboratory, Locke skillfully cut and squeezed the juice of two emerald iris lichens (and a variant) with tools, and used column-layer element separation equipment to separate the main magical structural components of the two emerald iris lichens from the mixed liquid, further improving the quality of the extraction.
In fact, this step is not necessary.
To prepare the Bear Spirit Bile Potion, it is not necessary to separate the juice of the Emerald Iris Lichen into its main active ingredients.
But the Reeves family once gave him a set of column-type elemental separation equipment, so Locke used it.
This can slightly improve the quality of the Bear Spirit Bile Potion, which can be considered an optimization of the process.
This is the same type of operation that Robert had done before, optimizing the process of worm regeneration potion to improve the quality of the potion.
Locke set up the crucible and snapped his fingers at the same time. A ball of green wood element flame appeared under the crucible.
Locke methodically added the various ingredients for the Bear Spirit Bile Potion.
At the same time, he silently memorized the key points of preparing this medicine.
First of all, this potion requires switching between three types of magic flames that all assistants must master: the wood element magic flame, the fire element magic flame, and the earth element magic flame. It also requires the use of a less commonly used magic flame – the air element magic flame.
The wood element magic flame is the most commonly used magic flame. The fire element magic flame is used to extract the magic structure components in various materials. The earth element magic flame is used to remove the toxicity of various potion materials as much as possible.
But the most unique thing about the Bear Spirit Bile Potion is that it requires blending two main ingredients, the juice of emerald lichen and bear bile, and mixing the two ingredients together to form a new ingredient, which is the main active ingredient of this potion.
This requires the use of the air element magic flame.
