Rise of the Dark Witch
Chapter 173 Impossible Mission
"Is there any problem?" Roja asked.
"I'm very sorry, Mr. Pharmacist Vic, you still have a potion task that you haven't completed yet, and you can't take on a new potion task." The counter lady stammered.
"Is that so?" Roja covered his head and pretended to work hard, but he couldn't remember it for a while because he was injured. "I wonder what the pharmacy mission is?"
Faced with Roja's inquiry, the lady at the counter swallowed nervously.
The strange attitude of the counter lady made everyone around her couldn't help but move their eyes and look over. What potion task did Vic take on that made the counter lady so nervous?
"Elementary potion task, one thousand bottles of ox blood potion, time limit is one month." The lady at the counter said with difficulty.
hiss--
Everyone around him took a deep breath when he heard this mission.
Maisie on the side grabbed the counter girl's collar angrily and asked: "Trish, how could my young master Vic accept such a task!"
"I, I don't know... I, I..." Counter girl Tris looked at Vic's task file, "It does say this task was written on it. The time was three days ago. I didn't work here three days ago. , so I don’t know what’s going on.”
"Quit immediately!" Maisie shouted.
"It can't be done. Because the quantity of one thousand bottles at a time is too much and the amount involved is too large, a gambling agreement has been signed, and..."
The face of the counter girl Tris was extremely ugly, "According to the above records, 1,500 materials for refining the ox blood potion have been handed over to Master Vic in advance."
"So..." Counter lady Tris said helplessly: "There is no way to retreat from this mission."
After hearing what the counter girl Tris said, everyone present had already guessed that this was a game against Vic!
According to the different raw materials used to make potions, potions are divided into three major schools: herbs, beasts, and ores.
Among them, the herbal school is the most prosperous, with more than 70% of pharmacists belonging to the herbal school.
Vic belongs to the herbal school.
Ox Blood Potion, as its name suggests, is a primary potion made from cow blood as the main material and belongs to the beast school.
You must know that the materials used, refining techniques, etc. are very different between different schools.
A senior pharmacist from the herbal school may not even be able to practice the elementary potion from the beast school.
The only good thing is that it is not the potion of the mineral school, which is the most difficult and the most different from the herbal school. Otherwise, there is really no hope of completing it.
But even for the relatively easy-to-refine ox blood potion, it would take a thousand bottles to be refined in a month?
The difficulty of refining primary potions is much lower than that of advanced potions. This does not mean that the refining time of primary potions will be shorter than that of advanced potions!
It doesn't mean that the refining time can be shortened if a senior pharmacist refines primary potions!
Does it take a professional chef less time to cook a pot of rice than an ordinary housewife does?
Even the most skilled person can refine up to twelve bottles of ox blood potion in a day, and one thousand bottles will take nearly ninety days to refine.
Generally speaking, you can cancel the task.
But a gambling agreement has been signed.
They also took away 1,500 raw materials for the medicine.
How to cancel the task?
Faced with a task that is absolutely impossible no matter how you think about it.
How could Vic, a top genius pharmacist from the outer courtyard of the Young Lions Hospital, who was expected to become a senior pharmacist in the future, do such a self-destructive thing?
It doesn’t take much thinking to know that there must be a conspiracy.
And the people present are all smart people.
"Why would Vic take on such a potion task?"
"Haha, do you think he is that kind of idiot?"
"Vic is one of the top talents in our outer academy. If the last spot in the inner academy is chosen among the current people in our Young Lions Academy, he is one of the most likely candidates."
"Yes, there are only one or two people who can compete with him."
During the low-pitched discussion, the pharmacists present had already guessed who was behind the scenes.
But they were not familiar with Vic, so there was no need to offend anyone because of Vic.
Anyway, the quota in the inner courtyard has nothing to do with them. Whoever gets the quota in the inner courtyard is just a topic for them to talk about after dinner. They don't care at all.
In the mission building, the pharmacists who didn't want to endure the troubled situation left in a hurry.
Macy asked the counter girl Tris angrily, "Who did it? Who is causing harm to my Master Vic?"
"You weren't here three days ago so you don't know?"
"Who was in charge of this three days ago?"
"Say it to me!"
"Let's go find that guy and ask him why he did this!"
Faced with Maisie's angry questioning, the counter girl Tris looked helpless.
"Forget it." Roja stopped Macy.
"But Master Vic..." Maisie still didn't want to let go.
"Miss Tris is just a worker. This matter has nothing to do with her. Don't embarrass her." Roja advised.
"I didn't make things difficult for her? I just asked her to tell who was behind the scenes?" Maisie defended.
"Um?"
Roja's eyes flashed.
"...I'm sorry." Maisie let go of Tris and stood obediently behind Roja.
"I'm sorry, my disobedient maid has brought you trouble." Roja apologized.
"No, it's okay." Tris nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "I can't help you with this matter. If you need help with anything else, Master Vic, just ask me and I will try my best to satisfy you. of."
"Thank you."
Roya took Macy out of the mission building.
"Master Vic, let's just forget about this? It's impossible to complete a thousand bottles of ox blood potion a month!" Maisie said.
"I will find a way." Roja replied.
"any solution?"
Maisie, who was about to wait for Roja's answer, looked at the few people walking in front of her chatting and laughing, and her eyes suddenly became extremely fierce.
She clenched her fists, wanting to rush up and grab the collar of the person walking in front, and question him like she had just questioned Tris.
But the other party was a noble pharmacist, and it was not something that her little maid could offend.
She whispered in Roya's ear: "Master Vic, it must be that Heidi who framed you for this matter."
"In the outer courtyard, his strength has always been a little worse than yours, and he has always been dissatisfied with it."
"And his uncle is the steward of the mission building..."
Just as Mercy was mid-sentence, looking at Heidi and his group who had already walked up to her, she could only temporarily suppress her anger and close her mouth.
"Hey, isn't this Master Vic?" Heidi showed a surprised expression as if she had just noticed Vic at this moment.
Roja ignored him and prepared to leave.
But Heidi obviously didn't want to let Roja go just like this.
I saw Heidi winking at the boys beside her, who immediately blocked Roya's way and prevented Roya from leaving.
After knowing that the other party will not let him go easily.
Roja sighed and looked at the man named Heidi.
Heidi is about 20 years old in the same grade. She has a pointy head and a slightly bulging face. She looks very mean.
Heidi's medicine level is one of the best in the outer courtyard, second only to Vic, but the difference is not big.
But is it really not that big?
Heidi is already twenty years old, and Vic is only sixteen or seventeen years old. There is a three-year age difference. As a result, his pharmacy skills are still weaker than Vic's.
What does this mean?
It means that their pharmacy talents are not at the same level at all!
Even if Heidi's potential exploded in the last month and ranked higher than Vic, taking into account the difference in age and talent, in the end he was still inferior to Vic in the eyes of the big shots who could decide their fate.
Heidi stared at Roja with squinted eyes, the depths of his eyes filled with jealousy and hatred.
"Master Vic, I heard that you accepted a mission of a thousand bottles of ox blood potion?"
"I always thought that Master Vic, you were from the herbal school. I didn't expect that you were even proficient in the beast school."
"And a thousand bottles of ox blood potion a month, tsk tsk tsk..."
"Looking at the entire Scarborough Market, I'm afraid no one can match this level, right?"
"Let us congratulate Master Vic in advance for entering the inner courtyard."
Heidi and his little brother clapped their hands.
Heidi seemed to be saying friendly words of blessing, but her tone was full of sarcasm, and her twisted expression made it clear that she wished Roja would disappear forever.
"Haidi, do you know? There is only one spot left in the inner court." Roja suddenly started talking nonsense.
"What do you want to express?" Heidi narrowed his eyes and stared at Roja.
"Do you know who the four people who have entered the inner courtyard are?" Roja asked calmly.
"Who doesn't know this kind of thing? Do you think I'm a fool?" Heidi said viciously.
Ignoring Heidi's barking, Roja introduced himself.
"The first place in the inner courtyard was taken by Miss Emma, the daughter of the president of the branch of the Scarborough Fair Pharmacists' Guild."
"Miss Alma is known as the Potion Elf. She has shown extraordinary talent in potion since she was a child. She was able to refine elementary potions when she was less than eight years old. I heard that she is already a pharmacy expert at less than fourteen years old. Her father’s senior pharmacist.”
"It is rumored that a potion master in Green City has booked her as a direct student."
"The second spot was obtained by Miss Tina from the Cyril family, one of the two great dukes in our Tallinn Empire."
"Miss Tina possesses the purple-gold magic eye, a dominant bloodline talent of the Duke Cyril family. She can see the flow and changes in the efficacy of medicinal materials, and can play a great assisting role in the refining process of medicines."
"The third spot is for Young Master Aaron, who comes from the family of Earl Kailan, a family of pharmacies."
"Master Aaron has the legendary physique of food and medicine. As long as he takes a little bit of any medicine, he can identify the medicinal properties, age, ingredients and other information of the medicine. He is a natural pharmacist."
"As for the fourth spot, it goes to Ferguson, the genius among geniuses."
"I heard that Ferguson, who came from the slums and doesn't know a single word, has only been exposed to pharmacy for two years, and he is already able to refine intermediate potions on his own. The level of pharmacy is no less than that of you and me."
Roya stared into Heidi's eyes, "Which one of them do you think you can compare to?"
"W-what do you mean?" Heidi was confused.
"Do you think that since there is still a quota in the inner court, one of us will definitely be selected from the most powerful people in the outer court?"
Roja shook his head, "You are absolutely wrong!"
"The people in the inner courtyard are all recommended by the Pharmacist Guild to be registered students of the Potion Master. There is a certain threshold for their pharmacy level and talent."
"Either you have the ability to refine advanced potions, or you are a unique potion genius like Ferguson."
"you?"
Luo Ya sneered, "It's not that I look down on you. Even if you take me down and become the number one in the outer court, do you think you can enter the inner court?"
"You -" Heidi glared at Roja, his face turned a little pale, "Why should you blame me for the potion task that you greedily took on? You dare to continue talking nonsense, believe it or not, I will ask my uncle to drive you out Young Lions’ Home?”
"Haha, why don't you let him give it a try? He's just a steward, and he still wants to threaten me?" Roja sneered, "Do you know what my full name is? Vic Cyril!"
"It's just a branch of a declining family. A guy whose father is just a baron, really thinks he comes from the Duke Cyril family?" Heidi yelled loudly, but the tone made people feel angry and frustrated.
"You said that if I cry out to Miss Tina from the Cyril family about your persecution of me in public, what do you think will happen to you?"
"You won't get any benefits if you do this!"
"You really pushed me to the edge, and I'm going to do that."
Roja directly pushed the minions out of the way and walked away with Macy.
Behind Roja, Heidi's expression kept changing ugly.
"Brother Heidi, if he really complains to Miss Tina, what should we do?"
"Even if that Vic's ancestors only came from the Duke Cyril family a few hundred years ago, but his surname is Cyril anyway, if the matter gets too big, we won't be able to get over it."
"Sure enough, we shouldn't have attacked him. He is not the weak guy with no backing that we used to manipulate him!"
Looking at the shaken younger brothers, Heidi said angrily:
"What are you afraid of?"
"But Brother Heidi..."
"It's nothing! That Vic spoke so arrogantly and complained to Miss Tina? He just dared to say harsh words, but in the end he didn't dare to do anything? Didn't he silently accept a thousand bottles of ox blood potion? This impossible mission?”
"That's right, that's right, he just said harsh words."
"Hey, I want to see how a pharmacist who specializes in herbal medicine can refine a thousand bottles of ox blood potion in a month!"
"Let alone refining, he doesn't even have the materials. He is a poor guy from a baron family. He wants to spend money to buy materials outside, but he doesn't have the money to buy them, right?"
Heidi and his party, who had been shaken violently by Roya's words, regained their former confidence in a few words.
It's just that Heidi's face is still a little ugly.
He left his younger brothers behind and walked toward the mission building without saying a word.
