Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 71 71. Alchemy Practice

Lan En didn't know what the sorceress academy expected of him in the future.

He just felt a chill now.

"What nonsense does the warmth of professional intensity bring?" the demon hunter muttered. "it's too cold!"

"These gold coins are too cold!"

The huge money bag, which was heavy and even somewhat cumbersome, was flying up and down in Lan En's hand.

These gold coins represent the cold and ruthless laws of profit in this world, and represent the dirty power and power in the world. But there are too many of them!

So much so that when the witcher murmured to himself, a satisfied smile could not help but appear on his lips.

The huge money bag is so heavy that even the cold demon hunter can't help but grin!

1,500 Oren coins, although I don’t know how it was half more than promised out of thin air, but this is a good thing.

Margarita gave him the cash directly.

Allowing him to directly connect with the agency responsible for sales and trafficking in the college.

The academy itself is also a complex force. If the demon hunter is allowed to pick things directly from the reserve, they will even have to set up a valuation and supervision position specifically for him.

But if you take the money to "buy" it from the unit that is responsible for sales, you can save a lot of worry in terms of administrative procedures.

At this time, Lan En bought the temporary use right of an alchemy classroom in Aretussa College for 10 orens a day.

Should it be called a magic school? The price alone is too high to be convincing.

"But it's worth it, sir."

Mentos reminded Lan in his mind.

"Alchemy is a technology with a fixed process. We have the ability to become familiar with and master it in a very short time, but only if we have the environment and equipment that meet the process requirements. This alone is the convenience that Aretuosa provides us. It’s far more than just 10 orens.”

"I know, I know. But it's me who pays. Is it wrong for me to say a few words?"

While talking to Zhinao, Lan En walked towards the alchemy classroom he had reserved.

The room he was assigned to stay in was on the ground floor of the huge island castle, which was called the Rocha Palace.

The decoration is magnificent and has excellent artistic aesthetics. I heard that major gatherings are held in the college, and when the king or the king's cronies come here, they can only visit on this floor.

But what Lan En is going to now is the teaching area above Luo Xia Palace.

Arriving at the door of the alchemy classroom, a little girl with brown hair and gray eyes was already waiting there holding a huge package.

"Good morning, my lord."

"Aliya, once again, I'm not an 'adult'. I don't understand where you learned this troublesome etiquette?"

Lan En shrugged helplessly and reached out to pick up the package in Aria's hand when she dodged.

Inside are the raw materials for this alchemy exercise. Although the package looks large, most of them are fluffy things such as plant leaves, so they are not heavy.

The four people who originally came to Goos Velen, York had returned to Crow's Nest that same day.

But the little girl Aaliya refused to separate from Lan En and asked about her hometown and family.

There will be some words that no one knows, such as "Winterfell", "direwolf sigil" and so on.

Although Margarita prefers pleasure to politics, she is also a learned sorcerer.

But she didn't know anything about what Aaliya said.

Seeing that this girl was determined to become the protagonist in a knight's tale, Margarita did not arrange a job for her to make ends meet in the town, and instead gave Lan En a squire.

Aria seems to know how to be a good squire, and she is not an ordinary squire, but the kind of squire who serves noble knights.

"At your request, I bought ten ounces of honeysuckle, three bottles of high-purity dwarf spirit, and twenty ounces of dried black reed petals from the academy."

The little girl took out the note from her trouser pocket, swallowed nervously, and reported one item at a time.

Lan En felt like she was nervous and excited on her first day of employment, afraid of new employees who would not perform well.

Even if you’ve never seen a witcher or magic, you wouldn’t feel like this, right?

Lan En was a little helpless, "Don't be so nervous. Today is just a practice. I don't even know what I can make."

"Oh, oh, yes, my lord!"

here we go again.

Lan En curled his lips and pushed open the classroom door, thinking that this child could be a blood relative who was teleported here from some remote kingdom, right?

Regardless of whether his words and deeds are standard or not, he is really classy.

Entering the alchemy classroom, Lan En felt like he had returned to the chemistry laboratory in his home world.

Of course, at the school level.

The familiar distilling bottles, beakers, measuring cylinders, mortars, and test tube racks

Although the glass craftsmanship in this world is not yet popular, mages can always enjoy the best.

"Wuhu! I feel like my proficiency has already started to increase before I even do it, Mentos. I am an expert in precise titration in the high school chemistry experiment class!"

Lan En was inevitably happy when he saw familiar things.

But Mentos is throwing cold water on it.

"This is your illusion, sir. All of the exercises used in this exercise use crudely processed raw materials, which are very different from the precise purity of pre-made chemicals you use on campus."

The subtext is: I think just trying to grasp the concentration will be enough for you to worry about.

Lan En didn't take it seriously and placed the package containing the raw materials on the table.

The orange light of the Igni seal on his hand flashed, and the candles in the alchemy classroom lit up with a pop.

"Start practicing, create a project, potion [Swallow]."

Once Lan En's order was given, Mentos entered auxiliary work mode.

"Accept the command, alchemy assistance begins, [Swallow] alchemy formula has been entered, process."

Mentos's complete memory ability made Lan En's alchemy progress very smoothly.

At least it looked smooth.

He had no clutter about entering an unfamiliar experimental site.

In the eyes of onlookers Aria, a large number of strange-shaped glassware was already dazzling, and when placed together, it was even more terrible, but Lan En, who was here for the first time like her, came here.

But he seems to remember the placement of all the utensils at a glance. When he needs to use a certain utensil, he will never lower his head to look around for and compare it. Instead, he will reach out and grab it and use it as soon as he can.

The raw materials will first pass through a small scale dedicated to weighing medicinal materials in his hands.

But this weighing process usually does not last more than five seconds, and then it is transferred into the mortar and distilling bottle.

The Witcher's potion formulas are made for hunting and are not as complicated as the academic potions.

After a series of actions, Lan En left behind a lot of experimental vessels that needed to be cleaned.

The witcher handed over the task of cleaning the experimental equipment to Arya, instructing her to rinse it with clean water at least three times, and then turn it upside down to dry.

"Thirty minutes, one bottle of [Swallow]. The efficiency is too low."

Lan En held the orange potion in his hand and frowned.

Mentos also exited assist mode.

"Skill analysis is in progress. [Alchemy] -23% Sir, with all due respect, sir. Before we start to improve efficiency, it is best to make sure this is a bottle of [Swallow]."

The young demon hunter raised his eyebrows indifferently, put the orange-red potion to his mouth and took a sip.

After tasting it for a moment, he swallowed it with an embarrassed look.

"You're right, Mentos."

Lan En's face was stiff.

"It's nothing more than a bottle of vitamin-enriched alcoholic beverage."

The first alchemical exercise - failed.
