My blood regeneration is 100 million points faster
Chapter 61 Innate Affinity
About half an hour later.
Xia Zuo placed three bottles of perfect quality black eye poison on the table.
"Is there anything you don't understand?" He saw the new student shaking his head and continued:
"Then let's refine the poison. Each person has three chances to refine it. We will conduct a poison test before get out of class ends tonight."
The three freshmen walked to the desk with serious expressions, read the poison formula carefully, and then took their own trays to get the toxin bottles.
Kulov did not enter a meditative state.
He always paid attention to the new students' movements, especially when they were playing with the blower, and even walked to the side to guide Xia Zuo.
Since I am not familiar with the alchemy platform yet, I have not mastered the size of the fire in the furnace. The three of them were all a little busy while steaming away the water, but fortunately they didn't make any big mistakes.
7:30pm.
Three freshmen sat on chairs.
Biggs, on the far left, was the first to drink homemade black eye poison.
"Black spot..." Biggs suddenly hugged his shoulders, his face turned pale and trembled, as if there was something extremely scary in front of him.
I have to change subjects. His visions were the same as Mason's.
Xia Zuo couldn't imagine what the specific picture looked like. He only knew that people who saw black spots could not control the fear in their hearts after many attempts. On the contrary, it would intensify the fear.
After a minute, Biggs broke free from fear and lowered his head in despair.
Xia Zuo looked at Huo Qi.
Under the watchful eyes of his tutor and teaching assistant, the boy with short broken hair took a deep breath, opened the cork of the bottle and drank the poison in front of him.
Although he tried his best to suppress the trembling and buried his face in his chest, the fearful twitching sound betrayed him.
Another one who saw black spots.
Obviously, when faced with a black dot screen, 10 points of will attribute are useless. You will still see what you should see. At most, you can reduce the number of black dots.
Counting Anru'er, there are currently 6 students who have tried the black eye poison, and 3 of them saw countless black spots.
A minute later, Hodge wiped the sweat from his forehead and said in a weak voice: "I survived."
Kulov sat behind his desk and asked, "Are those black spots you see?"
Hotch opened his mouth to say something in defense, but finally lowered his head, "Yes..."
Xia Zuo looked at Yolanda who was at the end of the queue.
After seeing Hodge's reaction, she realized that the potion she had taken in advance was not effective. She hesitated for a few seconds with a tangled look on her face, then raised her head and drank her own poison.
After a few seconds.
"What I see are twisted lines." A smile broke out on Yolanda's solemn face, paired with her dark eyes, her expression was a bit strange.
Like a drunken person, she swayed her upper body from side to side, looking at her arms in bewilderment. She barely spent a minute in a daze, instead of lying on the table and shutting up like Xia Zuo did when he tried drinking for the first time. Eyes hard.
The first time Xia Zuo tried black-eye poison, he did it alone.
Looking back now, I can say that the ignorant are fearless.
The status of Black Eye Poison at the trainee level is already very obvious.
It is a hurdle deliberately set by the school to screen out students studying poison alchemy.
Now that we have passed, we can stay in the Alchemy of Poisons for the time being. If you can't make it, you are destined to leave this discipline.
As for why most people see black dots, a small number of people see distorted lines, and a very small number of people see what they see in front of them as something else...
It was not mentioned in the notes written by the instructor, but Xia Zuo had some guesses.
People's attitudes towards things are divided into pessimistic, rational and optimistic types.
Pessimistic people will see densely packed black dots that are constantly scaling in the visual hallucination effect of the black eye poison.
Rational people, under the influence of hallucinations, can still distinguish the true appearance of things among the distorted lines.
Optimistic people will see things they like in visions.
Neither pessimists nor optimists are suited to Toxic Alchemy.
Because when you learn to refine the powder in the future, you will have to frequently use the more poisonous black-eye poison.
Only rational people can maintain their cognitive sobriety in the midst of visions and continue on the path of poison alchemy.
The attitude towards things is not shown on the character template, but it actually affects everyone. Its effect can no longer be simply measured by the level of the will attribute value.
Kulov stared at the two dejected students, "Biggs, starting from tomorrow, you will transfer to the functional pharmacy discipline. Hodge, you will transfer to the elemental concrete discipline."
Under the normal path, the prerequisite for learning the meditation method is that all four alchemy subjects have reached the proficiency level.
Failure to pass the Black Eyed Poison Trial means that one cannot become an entry-level poison alchemist, and naturally has no chance of becoming a mage.
Then why keep them in the academy?
Xia Zuo was stunned by this question that popped into his mind.
Could it be related to the kingdom’s plan to expand its territory? Need to reserve a group of entry-level alchemists?
Kulov didn't notice the assistant's thoughtful expression. He looked at the bright-faced female freshman and said, "Yolanda, from now on you will be refining poisons and testing poisons under the guidance of Xia Zuo."
"Yes, Professor."
"Okay, let's all go back and rest." Kulov waved towards the door, picked up the book and walked to the soft sofa.
Biggs and Hotch leave the basic alchemy room.
Yolanda walked to the cleaning pool first and said, "Senior, let me clean it."
Xia Zuo came back from his thoughts and said with a ceremonial smile: "Okay, I'll leave it to you."
He walked to the desk and sat down, writing down his teaching experience tonight.
Then, he watched Yolanda cleaning the alchemy room for a while, feeling a little tired for no reason.
If he had to choose between refining poisons and getting along with people, he would prefer to deal with high-level alchemy stations.
Charm flow may not be suitable for you...
Xia Zuo shook his head slightly and walked towards the door.
…
Next day next night.
Xia Zuo and Anruer finished their dinner and arrived at the poison alchemy area a few minutes early.
He walked into the basic alchemy room and saw his mentor sitting at the desk writing. Since the arrival of new students, the instructor has meditated every night to help the teacher prepare the materials for class that night.
"Good evening, Professor."
Xia Zuo came to the opposite side of the desk and recounted his speculation about the black-eye poison.
"Very close to the right answer."
Kulov nodded with a smile, stroked his beard and said:
"The Black Eyed Poison Trial can directly screen out students who are not suitable for poison alchemy. They are not eliminated because of lack of qualifications, they are simply unsuitable and mismatched."
"Professor, I have another discovery."
Xia Zuo took a bottle of refined black-eye poison from the shelf:
"I always feel that the pictures in the vision are actually two layers of pictures superimposed on each other. The twisted lines are one layer of pictures, and the small light spots flying around are another layer of pictures. If we could peel off the distorted lines of the picture , does the black-eye poison become the black-eye potion?"
Kurov smiled even more, took out a book from the desk drawer, and showed the cover.
On the black leather case, there are five large purple characters:
"The Stripping of Toxic Effects."
"Separation of Toxins", "Encyclopedia of Poisons", and "Guide to the Identification of Common Poisons", these three books are trainee-level textbooks.
"Polymerization of Toxins", "Enhancement of Poison Effect", and "Guidelines for Preparing Poison Refined Powder" are entry-level textbooks.
"Stripping Off Poisonous Effects" is a proficiency-level textbook.
It’s easy to understand just by looking at the name. This is a book that teaches people to strip away specific poisonous effects.
Kulov put the book on the table and said at the same time:
“A skilled poison alchemist, after completing this stage of teaching materials, can already explore the vast ocean of compound toxins on his own.
"Perhaps you have thought that poison alchemy and functional potion are the same at the proficiency level. The useless poisonous effects are stripped off and processed through functional potion alchemy to become a functional potion."
He said earnestly:
"You can discover the special features of the Black Eye Poison, which is very good and worthy of praise. I can reveal some of its secrets."
Xia Zuo sat up straight and stared at his mentor.
"After being refined, the black-eye poison will interact with four elements at the same time. Drinking it can simultaneously improve the resistance to the four elements. Its taste is slightly sweet and not as bitter as other poisons. In addition to the visual hallucination effect, There are few obvious flaws.”
Kulov stretched out his finger and scanned the shelves beside the wall:
"You see, how special it is among poisons. It increases resistance to the elements without experiencing pain.
"As long as what you see in the hallucination effect is not countless black spots that are frightening, nor are you seeing things that make people's hearts beat, you can use the black eye poison to easily increase your elemental resistance.
"You are now an entry-level poison alchemist. You have also tried the refined black-eye poison. You must be able to feel its benefits."
Xia Zuo nodded thoughtfully.
Indeed it is.
Among the known poisons, only Black Eyed Poison is the most suitable for earning rewards.
Kulov patted the cover of "The Stripping of Toxic Effect":
“At the proficiency level, you will learn the 2 refining recipes of black-eyed poison.
"It will produce new poisonous effects due to the refining operation. You need to strip away its other poisonous effects, leaving only the illusion effect, and continue to use it to increase elemental resistance.
"Of course, if your willpower is strong enough, you can directly drink the twice-refined Black Eye Poison without stripping away other poisonous effects."
After Kulov finished speaking, he looked up at the alchemy lamps on the ceiling and said sadly:
"Black Eye Poison appeared a long, long time ago. The alchemist masters of the Mage Temple spent countless years finally developing its refined powder formula.
"If this complete formula did not exist
"We can only be like the sages of poison alchemy, trying countless painful poisons to explore the effects of toxins. Let alone expert poison alchemists, we may die of injuries at the proficiency level."
Speaking of the Mage Temple, Kulov remembered something.
He glanced at the calendar on the table and asked, "How is your self-study of poison refining powder going?"
"The refining methods of white palate poison and black eye poison have been fully mastered."
Xia Zuo carefully wrote down his instructor's words and simply calculated his progress:
"The remaining three apprentice-level poison refining methods can be mastered within about three months. The four entry-level poisons and the accompanying refining methods will take six months to fully master."
Kulov looked away from the calendar and said, "Well, very good, keep up the good work. In almost 10 months, the inspection team from the Mage Temple will arrive."
"Inspection team?" Xia Zuo asked confused.
Kulov took out the cardboard from the drawer, unfolded a pyramid pattern on the table, pointed to the top spire and said:
"This is the Alchemy Potential Rating Table. Only our Toxic Alchemy department needs to accurately evaluate students' Alchemy Potential. Other disciplines do not have this requirement.
"On the first day you became an entry-level poison alchemist, you refined 9 bottles of perfect quality refined powder. Your alchemy potential is temporarily rated as top second level.
“The Mage Temple will send an inspection team to inspect you.
"This is a rare opportunity, take advantage of it. If you pass the inspection, in addition to a reward from the Mage Temple, after you become an official mage in the future, you can also go to the Eastern Continent and enter the Mage Temple to study for a period of time."
Xia Zuo stared at the pyramid pattern, and four lines of words came into view:
[Refined 9 servings of perfect quality poison refining powder on the first day
[Poison Alchemy Potential Rating: Top Second Class
[Ask the instructor to submit the student’s study records to the head of the school.
[Please ask the head of the school to submit the students’ study records to the Master’s Temple. 】
"Professor, what will the inspection team examine?"
Kulov raised three fingers:
"General course knowledge test, success rate of refining poisons, and a random test, which may be refining unfamiliar poisons or identifying unknown compound toxins."
These are all things that Xia Zuo is good at, but this inspection comes from the Mage Temple. The difficulty must be very high, and the inspection process must be extremely rigorous.
Xia Zuo said with emphasis: "I will make full preparations."
What Kulov was most satisfied with was the other party’s serious attitude from the bottom of his heart, with a look of affirmation in his eyes and a few words of encouragement:
“You have a very good character and good nature. I have said this many times, but I still can’t help but repeat it.
"The difficulty before you now is to conceive the elemental qualities. Work harder to overcome it, and I hope you can understand the 16 elemental qualities on your own."
Xia Zuo nodded dutifully amidst the instructor's praise.
Kulov pinched his beard and thought for a few seconds before saying:
"If you pass the test of the inspection team, I would like to make the decision to help you choose a master-level elemental bottle as a reward."
The elemental vial is an alchemical product of the discipline of elemental representation.
Members of this discipline, after taming an unruly element into a well-behaved element, can encapsulate it into a special container similar to a spiritual ocean.
Such containers containing clever elements are called elemental bottles.
Xia Zuo recalled the contents of the book "Principles of Elemental Embodiment" in his mind and blinked at his mentor in confusion.
“It is possible to fail when practicing meditation for the first time.”
Kulov looked at the shocked students, pointed at himself and the other party and said:
"Once we fail, our spiritual ocean will be severely damaged and it will take several years to recover. For those of us who are acquired affinity, the probability of failure is very high."
"Us?" Xia Zuo became even more surprised.
"Yes, I am also an acquired affinity person. Only you, me and the teachers who taught me know this secret. Never reveal it."
Xia Zuo said more seriously, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else. But professor, I don't understand what's the difference between those who are innately friendly and us?"
Kulov pointed to his head:
"In the spiritual ocean of those with innate affinity, there is a well-behaved element sleeping. Because of the existence of this well-behaved element, their success rate in practicing meditation for the first time will be very high. Master-level element bottle, when practicing meditation for the first time Its function is similar to that of the sleeping well-behaved element."
In this case, choosing the Master Level Elemental Bottle as a reward is indeed the most correct decision.
"Thank you, Professor. If I pass the test, I'll do as you say."
The clock on the wall reads 6pm.
Yolanda walked into the basic alchemy room on time, with a slight smile on her face, "Good evening, professor. Good evening, senior."
Xia Zuo picked up the notepad on the desk and led her to the basic alchemy table:
"Tonight, let's review the refining process of Black Eye Poison first, and then I will teach you how to make another poison."
"Okay, senior."
Thanks to the handsome Buyao Buyao for the 100-point reward.
Thanks to Salted Fish on the Beach 233 for the 100 points.
