n“I want to exchange beginner for intermediate spirit potion materials.”
n
n
nJoelson had already thought it through and said directly.
n
n
n
n
nThe surrounding people were surprised again.
n
n
n“Joelson is also studying pharmaceutics?!”
n
n
nIntermediate materials? Could it be that he had already begun to try to concoct intermediate magic potions? The God of Magic! He was only sixteen years old!
n
n
n“It should just be an attempt. He’s a genius. It’s always easy to be too proud and think that he’s outstanding in every field.”
n
n
n
n
nJoelson ignored the discussions of the others and only looked at the red-haired girl.
n
n
n“Can I?”
n
n
nThe red-haired girl came back to her senses and said, “Oh, of course.”
n
n
n“The materials for the beginner-level spirit potion are the stalks of the ghost face vine and the saliva of the bull horn magic snake. Hmm, each set of materials requires one credit to exchange.”
n
n
n
n
nSo cheap?
n
n
nJoelson was slightly surprised. It seemed that the value of the credit was even higher than he had imagined.
n
n
n“What about the materials for the intermediate-level spirit potion?”
n
n
nThe red-haired girl glanced at her hands and replied, “15 credits per set.”
n
n
nJoelson raised his eyebrows and asked, “Why is there such a big difference?”
n
n
nThe red-haired girl explained, “Because the intermediate-level spirit potion requires the saliva of the Asian Dragon. The Asian Dragon is a magical beast with an average strength of at least tier 5. It is relatively rare, so the price is a little more expensive.”
n
n
n
n
nJoelson thought for a moment and replied, “Then what if we remove the Asian Dragon’s saliva?”
n
n
n“Remove the Asian Dragon’s saliva?”
n
n
nThe red-haired girl was stunned for a moment when she heard that.
n
n
nThe Asian Dragon’s saliva was a key ingredient in the concoction of the intermediate spirit potion. Without it, it was impossible to concoct it. Why would they remove it?
n
n
nAlthough she did not understand, she still answered Joelson’s question. “In that case, we only need seven credits.”
n
n
nA portion of Yalong saliva was worth eight credits. It was more precious than all the other materials added together.
n
n
n“Then.” Joelson said, “Please help me exchange for one portion of intermediate spiritual medicine materials, four portions of intermediate spiritual medicine materials excluding Yalong saliva, and five portions of beginner spiritual medicine materials.”
n
n
nThe red-haired girl blinked her eyes and said subconsciously, “Then you won’t have a single credit left.”
n
n
n
n
n“I know.”
n
n
n“Junior Joelson, if you don’t have enough credits, you can’t advance to the third grade.”
n
n
n“I know.”
n
n
nJoelson interrupted the red-haired girl and said seriously, “Can you please hurry up?”
n
n
nThe red-haired girl opened her mouth and nodded helplessly.
n
n
nAlright, she had said too much.
n
n
nHow could a super genius like Joelson worry about credits like ordinary students? The monthly homework test was enough for him to accumulate a year’s worth of credits.
n
n
nTo be honest, after working at the Truth Society for so long, this was the first time she had seen someone squander credits like this.
n
n
nJoelson exchanged for the materials he wanted. After confirming that there were no problems, he thanked them and left under the surprised gazes of the people around him.
n
n
nBack at his residence, in the underground magic laboratory.
n
n
n“The key to making a magic potion is the dosage of each material. It is similar to the chemical reaction experiment in my previous life. A little more or a little less might cause unexpected accidents, leading to the failure of the experiment in the end.”
n
n
nJoelson’s hands were very steady, and his eyes were calm. He placed the last material into the test bottle.
n
n
nAs the last material was added, a magical reaction occurred. The turbid liquid in the bottle slowly became clear and transparent, and finally turned into a beautiful light blue color.
n
n
n
n
n“The preparation of a beginner’s potion is not difficult at all for my current spiritual power,” Joelson said.
n
n
nIn front of him, there were already two bottles of the beginner’s spiritual potion that had been prepared.
n
n
nHe had tried it three times, and all of them were successful.
n
n
nIf Gerrard and Elsa saw this, their jaws would drop in shock.
n
n
n“It’s time to try the intermediate level.”
n
n
nJoelson did not take out the remaining two sets of basic materials, but took out the intermediate magic materials.
n
n
n“Intermediate fire-type gem powder, bloodthirsty vine root and leaf, and this one.”
n
n
nJoelson raised a small transparent bottle in his hand, which was filled with lead-gray turbid liquid.
n
n
n“Yalong saliva.”
n
n
nThere were five sets of materials in total, but there was only one set of Yalong saliva. It did not seem to be enough.
n
n
nHowever, Joelson had already made a plan.
n
n
nAccording to the magic potion book, the reason why the Yalong saliva was used in the preparation of the spirit potion was because it contained a thin dragon bloodline. As long as it was the saliva of a dragon descendant, it could be used as a substitute. The thicker the bloodline, the better the effect.”
n
n
nJoelson said in a deep voice, “In that case, then Du Lu’s saliva can also be used. It is a pure-blooded fire-type giant dragon, so the effect should be even better!”
n
n
nIt was obvious that Joelson had already planned this.
n
n
n“Come out, Du Lu.”
n
n
nIn the dark basement, a red light suddenly lit up.
n
n
nDu Lu, a fire-type dragon that had already advanced to the fourth rank, appeared in front of Joelson.
n
n
nIts body was already very huge. Its length was close to ten meters, and its height was about five to six meters. The small basement could barely accommodate it.
n
n
nDu Lu had to try its best to curl up.
n
n
n“Du Lu du Lu.”
n
n
nDu Lu was like a big dog. It growled at Joelson in a wronged manner.
n
n
nThis place was too small. It felt very uncomfortable.
n
n
nJoelson patted Du Lu’s scalding head twice and comforted it, “Bear with it, just bear with it. I’m here to ask for your help.”
n
n
nJoelson picked up a crystal test tube and said to Du Lu, “Open your mouth.”
n
n
nDu Lu obediently opened his mouth, revealing his huge mouth.
n
n
nHis teeth were as sharp as knives and his throat was like a black hole.
n
n
nFortunately, du Lu had grown up eating dragon scale fruits and had never eaten meat, so his breath was not heavy.
n
n
nHowever, when the hot breath blew onto Joelson’s face, he could almost smell the burnt smell of his own hair.
n
n
nJoelson knocked on Du Lu’s chin and scolded jokingly, “Don’t breathe too hard, hold it in.”
n
n
n“Du Lu du Lu.” Du Lu called out twice, his black gem-like eyes full of grievance.
n
n
nHis breath was much weaker.
n
n
nJoelson inserted the crystal test tube between Du Lu’s teeth, and threads of transparent birth water slowly dripped in, quickly filling a bottle.
n
n
n“Not bad, very clean!”
n
n
nJoelson sized up the crystal test tube and nodded in satisfaction.
n
n
nDu Lu’s saliva was as clear as water, as sticky as glue, and still boiling hot.
n
n
n“The next step is almost the same as the initial stage.”
n
n
nJoelson skillfully handled all kinds of magic materials.
n
n
nThe preparation of an intermediate potion was the same as the initial stage, except that there were more materials and it was more complicated.
n
n
nThe real test was still the control of spiritual power.
n
n
nHalf an hour later.
n
n
n“What a pity.”
n
n
nJoelson sighed regretfully.
n
n
nHe had almost succeeded. He had made a small mistake.
n
n
nCome!
n
n
n“Open your mouth! Du Lu!”
n
n
nDu Lu shook his big head hard.
n
n
nNo, no, I’m an arrogant giant dragon. It’s already shameful enough to open my mouth a second time. I’ll never do it again.
n
n
n“Baby, I’m trying to make money. I’m going to make money to build a bigger house for you! Think about the beautiful active volcano. Don’t you want to lie in the crater of the volcano and roll around?”
n
n
nJoelson felt like a child snatcher with lollipops.
n
n
nOnly the target was a dragon.
