New Century Kitchen Warrior

Chapter 84: Alchemy

Not long after.

Jiejie's strength came from her hand, and she gently squeezed Leiye's hand.

Silently, she sat up a little straighter. Lei Ye looked at her and found that she winked at him.

Smart and Clean is online.

Lei Ye tapped the back of Jiejie's hand with his fingers as a signal of 'welcome online' and 'come on', and then his hand was suddenly grabbed and their fingers were interlocked.

I can't even pull it out.

"What?"

"Nothing, I just suddenly wanted to shake hands."

"That's not how you shake hands."

"It doesn't matter, it's just a handshake. Why do you care so much? That's why you're called a virgin." Jiejie giggled softly.

Then, with an expression as if he was watching something slipping away from his hand, he slowly pulled his hand away.

While talking in a low voice, Lei Ye had been observing Jiejie's posture out of the corner of his eye. After changing into new clothes, her elegant figure looked very moving, like a real aristocrat, with nobility and elegance in every move.

It is true that clothes make the man, this is the real original Jiejie.

Although she was not wearing any makeup, her pretty face was still quite lovable. Perhaps it was because her intelligence had improved and even her squint symptoms had been cured. This made her look less silly, and instead gave her an oppressive feeling of a petite queen.

However, she still tilted her head mischievously from time to time to look around.

"I guess if you go back, it should be about a month ago."

Are you asking about Lei Ye's save point?

He nodded.

By now he already had a certain idea of ​​how smart Jie was, so he wouldn't be surprised no matter what Jiejie deduced.

"At that time, I was still completely in the state of rosacea. It's a good thing. I still remember the fear when I realized that I had rosacea. At that time, I couldn't imagine that I could live in such a castle, be cared for by maids, and eat such delicious food every day."

"It's great. I'm so lucky to meet you." She sighed softly.

"This game is very important to you, is it really okay to keep talking about the past?"

"If I can't even beat her, then what qualifications do I have to arrogantly call myself the best alchemist? And I'm not talking about the past, I'm talking about the future."

Jiejie took a deep breath and asked a question that seemed to have taken all her courage, "Will you keep me by your side in the future?"

She swung her calves, feeling a little uneasy.

Lei Ye was silent for a moment and turned to look at the stage.

After a moment, he asked hesitantly.

"Ms. Jiejie, I know you are very confident in your abilities, but..."

He raised his hand and pointed over there.

Meimei's potion has been refined. There are five bottles of colorful potion with beautiful quality. Mama gave full marks to each bottle of potion. Several other ladies were also observing the potion with an identification mirror, saying something in admiration and holding up small "ten" signs.

By the way, perhaps because of the Ai'er family bloodline mentioned earlier, these ladies are all widows.

Just as he was thinking about this kind of thing, his thoughts overshadowed the question that Jiejie had just asked.

Jiejie on the side looked a little solemn.

Those small brands all got full marks.

Such results mean that even if Jiejie does her best, she can only tie with Meimei.

Lei Ye frowned slightly.

It's too sloppy. The referee's level is not good. Generally speaking, shouldn't they remove the lowest score or the highest score? Now they make it full score. How can the people behind them compete? It should leave some gaps.

Jiejie took a deep breath, suddenly stood up, and walked forward with graceful steps.

That’s great. Lei Ye was very glad that he had changed her clothes. She now looked like a princess from a small country, walking into a banquet where she was the protagonist.

Meimei, who was smiling triumphantly, suddenly froze in laughter, followed by a look of fear.

The three-year period has arrived, and the King of Alchemy has returned!
——He didn’t have a similar feeling. Although he heard other people exclaiming, Lei Ye just thought such a scene was boring.

Looking at Meimei's extremely frightened expression, Lei Ye knew that Jiejie's rosacea must have been caused by this b.

He has no evidence, but he doesn't need evidence, it's obvious.

Because of Jiejie's return, there was a commotion over there for a while, but it soon became quiet again. There was no huge disturbance, and soon Jiejie was able to operate the machine.

Lei Ye squinted his eyes and closed them to rest, preparing to skip this period of time.

He heard the tapping sound of high heels and moved closer.

The voice stopped beside him and someone sat down next to him. He looked up and saw that it was Madam Mama.

"You made a potion that can cure pink fever?"

Madam Mama's voice was filled with joy.

But Lei Ye felt unhappy and impatient after hearing this. "Potion, potion!" The people in the Aier family always talk about potion. Shouldn't she be more concerned about her daughter who finally recovered?

Mrs. Mama probably did have love for her daughters, but it didn't seem to be that much.

Glancing at Lili who was sitting somewhere and wiping her tears of joy, Lei Ye now felt that this strong boy was much more pleasing to the eye.

"No, I just forced her intelligence to improve." Lei Ye replied.

"A potion that can improve intelligence?! Isn't this even more powerful? My Lili can be saved too."

Madam Mama was even more delighted when she heard this, and she also commented on Lili's intelligence.

There is something wrong with the statement. To be precise, it is not about improving intelligence but restoring intelligence. However, it does not matter. Anyway, he does not intend to give her any formula even on the last day. Ever since Madam Mama's favorability dropped because of the nobles' affairs, Lei Ye has not had closer contact with Madam Mama. To this day, they already have a pathetically thick barrier.

".You don't seem to be willing to pay attention to me anymore."

The lady's tone was sad, and Lei Ye felt his hand being suddenly grasped.

Oh, here it comes again, sexual harassment.

She is obviously afraid of herself, but she comes here to flirt with me because of the new formula. It seems that Meimei's part was inherited from here.

"Madam, please respect yourself. I already have someone I like."

Lei Ye pushed Madam Mama's hand away, clearly expressing his refusal.

As a result, Mama grabbed it again and started to pester her.

"Yes, I know, but two are definitely better than one. It's a good thing that Jiejie has recovered, but that child's personality can be troublesome sometimes. If I'm here, I can help you solve it. You don't need to worry about other things. I will convince her and help you solve the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problem at once."

Her hand climbed up gently, and her tone was gentle, "Isn't this good? We can call each other our own names. You call me mom and I call you husband."

Lei Ye felt an indescribable discomfort and slapped Mama's hand away.

This made Mama realize her attitude, and then both of them fell silent.

When she spoke again, her tone changed.

"There is a hidden rule in the Aier family competition that you probably don't know. Let me tell you about it here."

"This competition is essentially about selecting the best heir to this alchemy family. Both physical strength and magical power must be excellent enough to create a qualified next generation."

"But, Alchemy, as long as one of the parents is exceptional, they can be responsible for the education, right?"

Elmama raised the corner of her mouth and smiled, "So in this aspect of alchemy, partners can also take part in the battle."

".Are you sure you didn't add this on your own?"

"It was a last-minute addition," Mama admitted immediately. "But it wasn't particularly last-minute. I decided to add you when I discovered that you were very talented in alchemy. I thought you might be able to compete in place of Jiejie."

"You're crazy. Do you want to hand over your home to an outsider?"

"That's why I said you call me mom and I call you husband."

The residual heat in the crucible has not yet dissipated, so the potion can be refined faster than usual.

Jiejie's potion was quickly prepared.

She could tell at a glance what the competition was about. There were so many materials in the storage box, and she had to find the best combination in the fastest time to refine five optimal potions. It tested her familiarity with the formulas.

Therefore, there are advantages to refining something later, as you can see what kind of potion the previous person refined, and you can copy their homework.

The potions Meimei made were all the best recipes of the Aier family. After looking at the quality of the potions,
"You have grown up too." Jiejie sighed softly. Jiejie made the exact same potion, and she was not copying homework, she could tell the optimal solution at a glance.

however.

In front of her was a small nine-point card.

Looking at the aunt who was a little embarrassed by her gaze, Jiejie smiled.

For some reason, she was not surprised. Her youngest sister always had some clever ideas. In fact, she should have thought of it just now. To be able to find the five best formulas so quickly and to refine them so skillfully and perfectly, she must have done a lot of homework before.

Yes, her sister is such a person. Although she may not know that she will appear here, she must have done a lot of homework.
In fact, I still want to win.

Really want to win.

But who made her lose so much time? Looking at the aunt with her head lowered, Jiejie fell silent.

She subconsciously looked in a certain direction below the stage.

It's so funny. I was so confident talking to him before, but...
Hey, where are the people?

"Auntie, there's something wrong with your cards."

Lei Ye stood next to Jiejie and grabbed the big pink-haired girl's arm, looking unhappy.

He pointed at the potions Meimei had just made, and then at Jiejie's potions, "These two are exactly the same potions, right? I think the quality of this one is obviously better. Even if you can't get any more points, where did you deduct these points?"

The aunt whose wrist was grabbed was very panicked.

He glanced at Meimei first, then muttered softly at a loss.

"Because, after all, we are a latecomer. And the quality of the medicine made by Jiejie is worse."

"Bullshit! What's wrong with that? Stop talking nonsense, okay?"

Lei Ye lowered his voice, "Auntie, this is an important matter, please don't judge rashly, otherwise I will make you die more miserably than the final villain of Qin Di. I have asked for your home address."

I'm super, box.

The pink-haired aunt didn't know what Qin Di was, but when she understood that Lei Ye had asked for her home address, she became more and more flustered. She didn't look at Mei Mei again and silently changed into a very small brand.

Oh, that's right.

Although there was a sense of relaxation on the last day when one could do whatever one wanted, Lei Ye did not want to end it in a bad way, so it was naturally a good thing if the other party was willing to cooperate.

After looking at Meimei with a gloomy face and then at Jiejie who looked surprised, Lei Ye strode towards the storage box.

He took out the materials and started the alchemy table.

"What are you going to do!" Meimei finally couldn't hold it anymore.

In the blink of an eye, Lei Ye had processed the materials and thrown them into the crucible.

The exact same materials were used.

However, if he made exactly the same potion, the best case scenario would be that the scores would be the same, so Lei Ye planned to do something fancy.

Seeing Jiejie's surprise and confusion, Lei Ye pressed her head and signaled her not to worry.

【Kitchen Man】

: Add magic power during the cooking process, and the food produced will have additional effects.

Isn't the process of refining medicine a kind of cooking in a sense?

Lei Ye took a deep breath.

"You and I, husband and wife, are no match for each other!"

He laughed loudly and activated his skills.

"Husband, husband and wife?!" Jiejie was shocked.

It was indeed a newly added rule. Judging from Jiejie's reaction, she had no idea what Madam Mama had just said, and she couldn't even understand the hints from Lei Ye's frequent blinking.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but there was an unnatural blush on Jiejie’s face, but she calmed down.

Soon, Lei Ye's potion was ready, and golden drops of medicine fell into the bottle.

"Hahahaha!"

Looking at the medicine drop, Meimei suddenly laughed wildly.

"You scared me. I thought you were going to do something. You totally failed. The best potion you can make with those ingredients is this violent potion, one of the strongest amplification potions. Look at what you made!!"

[Rage Potion]: Increases strength attribute by 50%.

It is indeed a T0-level medicine on the market.

but
Lei Ye motioned for Madam Mama to come forward and handed over the identification mirror, as well as the strange golden liquid that was emitting electric light and lightning.

【Lightning Dew Drop】: After use, lightning attribute attack is doubled.

With a "bang", the appraisal mirror in her hand fell to the ground, just like the glass lamp in Sha Monk's hand. Mama was stunned.

"This"

Using exactly the same ingredients, you can create completely different potions.

For Mrs. Mama, this was probably a completely incomprehensible situation.

But for Lei Ye, this has been verified repeatedly in recent days. His ability can be used in potion refining. The potions he makes do not add additional effects on the original basis as he imagined, but will change into more powerful potions.

"I've had enough of the red tape. Forget about the grading. It's meaningless. Just tell me which of these two potions is better."

"Wait a minute," Meimei stopped smiling and became completely anxious, "This is obviously not in compliance with the rules."

"I follow the rules when they are reasonable, but why should I follow them when they are unreasonable? Also, don't interrupt me when I'm not talking to you. You have no manners!"

".It is true that the medicine here is better."

Just hearing this sentence is enough. Lei Ye nodded and continued the operation.

The second bottle of potion was not as gorgeous and beautiful as the dew drops, and it did not appear to have any color.

Using the same materials, Meimei created a brightly colored potion, like the [Advanced Healing Potion] made from fruit juice.

As the name suggests, it is an upgraded version of ordinary healing potions. It is not difficult to imagine that the healing effect is much better than ordinary potions.

While Lei Ye's medicine looked like just plain water, the effect displayed under the identification mirror was -

【handwashing fluid】

: Sprinkle it on the wound and it will heal instantly. Even a broken limb can be restored in a short time.

With a click, the appraisal mirror in her hand fell down, just like the second glass lamp in Sha Monk's hand. Mama was stunned.

The results shown on the appraisal mirror are generally true and beyond doubt. However, at this moment, Madam Mama questioned the text on it for the first time.

A medicine that is applied externally instead of taken internally? Can it heal broken limbs?

How can it be?

Lei Ye didn't even bother to ask about the results this time. The contrast in effects was too obvious. If anyone dared to compare again, he could start digging their crotch without any psychological burden. He directly started to refine the next potion.

Now, two medicines have completely defeated each other.

All he needs to do is to refine a potion that can crush his opponent, and the outcome will be decided.

Looking over there, Meimei's pink potion is called [Charm Potion].

The first potion Lei Ye made when he came to the Aier family.

As expected, this type of potion is what the alchemist is best at.

Of course, Lei Ye is more confident in the medicine he has.

There was only one appraisal mirror left at hand, and Lei Ye handed it to Madam Mama. Madam Mama was already extremely excited by the successive shocks, and she immediately couldn't wait to look over.

【Gojiro Guaranteed Potion】

: Five times a day, guaranteed five times.

Lei Ye's right hand was lifted up quickly by Madam Mama, who clamped her legs together as if a trigger point had been triggered.

"Everyone, a new champion is born!"
