Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 1379 1351. Alchemy Crowd
With two large barrels of [Tyrannosaurus Kidney Grinding Fluid] stockpiled in advance, the materials for the [Big Eater Vitality] potion developed by Lan En were now fully available.

The crystal cultivation laboratory not only has the most important crystal cultivation equipment, but also a number of normal alchemy equipment.

These are enough for Lan En.

The witcher began to light the fire and heat the cauldron used for alchemy.

When he started to make [Big Eater Vitality], he failed only once, at the very beginning.

That's because the medicinal herbs grow in this magical Middle Ages, which causes the efficacy of the drugs to decline and fluctuate.

In the end, the medicine turned into a smelly and ineffective "kidney soup".

But with Lan's alchemical talent, it was only the first one that failed.

"The efficacy data of local drug materials is being re-entered and estimated. The error value is within the acceptable range. It is being uploaded. Please read it, sir."

Mentos was methodical, even easy and enjoyable, completing tasks that previously required some effort.

Almost instantly after Lan's first attempt failed, the new data had been adjusted and appeared at the corner of the demon hunter's retina for his reference.

From the junior high school stage stipulated by the Human Rights Union, the computing power authority has been advanced to the high school stage, which is a huge improvement for Mentos' work efficiency.

In the past, it would have required Lan to conduct at least a few more failed experiments before he could summarize the causes based on a large amount of failure data.

The increase in Mentos's meticulous observation, data integration ability, computing power and speed at this stage is simply incomparable to before.

After the demon hunter took a quick glance at the data provided by Mentos, dozens of solutions immediately popped up in his mind.

How to compensate for the efficacy of the medicine, or simply modify the formula to weaken the entire medicine to match the efficacy, and then increase the dosage to improve the effect.
He transferred all these flashes of inspiration to the biochemical intelligent computer, which, after verification by computing power, screened out the most feasible ones.

Then, during the second preparation, a weakened version of [Big Eater Vitality] was ready compared to the original version made entirely of New World materials.

Lan En picked up the alchemy pot, put his eyes close to it, and observed the viscosity and color of the liquid inside by rotating the pot.

"If it is made into a sustained-release capsule, the absorption effect of the drug can be further improved. Or can the absorption route be changed directly to the route of an anal suppository and absorbed by the small intestine?"

An endless stream of inspiration burst out in Lan's mind. The flashes of inspiration that ordinary alchemists could hardly pursue were just a daily part of his research and experimentation.

Then, after shaking his head, Lan gave up these ideas and just asked Mentos to file and record them.

It now appears that the transplantation of plants from the New World is progressing well. Although the efficacy of the medicinal materials has been visibly reduced, their medicinal properties have not undergone fundamental changes.

As long as the user's level is high enough and can make appropriate modifications to the formula, it can still be used.

Besides, if he finds time to go to the New World again, he can put two large barrels of [Tyrannosaurus Rex Kidney Grinding Fluid] in the investigation team's Star Base. Then he will have everything he wants, right?
He could not fit in enough materials grown in the New World.

These materials were not precious in the New World. It was only because they had to be imported across the world that it was a headache.

After Lan En started to improve his recipe, he quickly and skillfully cooked several pots in a row.

After packaging, there are exactly twelve bottles.

Two of the bottles will be given to Maria and Adeline to support their physical damage during the blood transfusion process.

The original [Big Eater Vitality] potion was developed with the concept of slow and long-lasting effects.

After the modification, in order to improve the human body's absorption efficiency, Lan En directly extended the duration of action of this medicine to four days.

That is to say, within four days, this potion will provide the user with a strong sense of hunger, but at the same time, after the nutritional needs are met, the body's metabolism and recovery speed will be increased to far beyond normal.

There were twelve crystal clear glass bottles of potions on the table.

Lan En first took out two bottles from the side, then looked down at the remaining ten bottles.

At first, he looked deep and shook his head with an incomprehensible sigh, but in the end he still put it into the alchemical leather bag and put it away properly.

The remaining two bottles of alchemical potions were delivered to Maria and Adeline. They were both very reasonable people. Seeing that Aretusa was full of busy people, they found that Aretusa was full of busy people.

Not wanting to cause any more trouble, Lan En did not move around and easily found them in the room assigned to them.

Maria curiously pointed the potion bottle that could be held in one hand towards the sunlight on the sea outside the window, looking at the translucent liquid.

"Can these potions help us regenerate our blood quickly?"

"Well, it's definitely not like the things produced in the Healing Church workshop. It makes me feel uncomfortable." She murmured.

Lan En tilted his head without comment.

The [Tranquilizer] produced by the Healing Church Workshop is based on thick human blood. [Red Lead] is said to be derived from the most desperate and deepest dreams.

This style is the characteristic of the magical items in Yharnam.

Similar to the alchemical product in Lan's hand, Maria would certainly feel it was 'harmless' and 'normal' in comparison.

But then, Maria handed another bottle of [Big Eater Vitality] to Adeline, but whispered to Lan En, a little hesitantly.

"We...we were thinking, should we move to another place?"

Seeing Lan turned around, Maria continued.

"After all, this place seems too busy, and now, we can start the blood exchange, right?"

The witcher looked at Maria, then at Adeline who was smiling shyly beside him.

"It's really unfortunate." Lan En stroked his chin and said, "It just happened to coincide with the warlocks' meeting. But don't worry. I do have a place where you can get treatment safely. I'll take you there later."

As he spoke, the demon hunter raised his eyebrows and looked at the dark but sharp [Fallen Leaf] long sword at Maria's waist.

"Once we're there, maybe you can use your skills to help me discipline those guys."

"Discipline?" Maria's face was indifferent, and she looked a little unconfident. "Is it a child?"

"No, they are a group of knights, the tall and strong ones." Lan En said with a stiff expression due to being speechless, "But they are quite opinionated. Hmm!"

After making an appointment with Maria and Adeline, Lan En did not stay in the busy Aretuza Academy. He put on his hooded cloak, walked out of the academy gate and went to the city of Gos Velen.

Today in Aretuza, merchants' goods are constantly flowing in and out of the academy for the upcoming Warlock Conference.

The college entrance, which is normally quite busy, is now jammed with traffic for 200 meters.

The packhorse pulling the cart shook its tail, and horse manure mixed with undigested hay hit the ground from its buttocks, breaking into a pile of semi-dry and half-wet lumps.

The body odor and cries of livestock, as well as horse and cow dung, were scattered all over the road, showing signs of a queue of vehicles.

The feces of herbivorous animals were not too disgusting, but it still attracted a large number of gadflies and flies, which buzzed around the blocked convoy in this autumn weather.

The livestock were harassed by mosquitoes and kept wagging their tails and blinking their eyes. The driver was so annoyed that he could only fan them with his straw hat, cursing and wishing that his slow-moving colleagues in front of him would just crash off the bridge.

Lan remained calm under his hood, walking out, alongside the crowded carriages and ox-carts on the bridge connecting Aretuza's main gate to Gos Velen.

Under the shadow of his hood brim, Lan looked toward the shoreline on the side of the bridge.

The weather in Weiren is relatively stable today. There are no dark clouds and strong winds blowing from the sea. It doesn't look like it will rain.

That's good enough.

The ground around Aretusa is paved with stone bricks or large rocks, and the animal manure and dirt left by the vendors' vehicles are relatively easy to clean.

Once we crossed the bridge and entered the city limits of Gos Velen, we reached the dirt ground.

These horse manure and cow manure will be mixed with the soil under frequent trampling and become new soil.

Most of the streets in Gos Velen are made of land, and because of the humid and changeable weather in the Velen area near the sea, the ground is always muddy.

The city hall had to lay many wooden planks on the road to allow the smooth flow of vehicles carrying goods, the "blood" that makes the city active.

There will be no 'blood clot' caused by the wheels getting stuck in the mud.

However, how can a road that is often crushed by heavy objects be good?
The wooden planks would soon be crushed, or simply squeezed out of the middle of the road and become scattered.

And beneath the wooden planks was ankle-deep mud and garbage.

From this point of view alone, the urban construction of Yharnam and Lothric is indeed impressive.

Gently pushing the head of a donkey that was blocking the road, Lan En squeezed past a cart pulling a pile of skinned furs, and finally crossed the most congested Main Gate Bridge.
