My Pokémon Story of Seasons

Chapter 250 Unidentified Potion

Tong Hua focused intently on following the knowledge in her mind. First, she removed the pits from the peaches and sliced ​​them. Then, she gently crushed the peaches with a stone mortar and pestle to extract the juice. She then peeled the remaining peaches, taking only the glistening flesh inside.

The two types of fruit pulp were placed in separate containers, displaying an enticing pink and light purple hue.

"Let's try extracting the active ingredients separately first," Tong Hua muttered to herself, slowly pouring peach juice into a small glass flask and heating it at a low temperature over an alcohol lamp.

Tibrim observed quietly from the side, her curly hair swaying slightly: "Finally, you're starting to look serious, Brie."

O

As the temperature rises, tiny bubbles begin to appear in the peach juice, and the color gradually becomes transparent.

Tong Hua carefully controlled the heat until the liquid was reduced to only one-third.

A rich, sweet aroma filled the workshop. He extinguished the fire and poured the concentrated peach fruit essence, boiled into syrup, into a small bottle.

"Next up is the Zero Fruit—" Tong Hua turned to another container and, following the method described in the book, soaked the light purple fruit pulp in Moo Moo Fresh Milk.

Just as described in the book, the pulp of the fruit slowly dissolved in the milk, turning the entire cup of milk a pale purple color.

"Low-temperature extraction, not bad." Tibrim rarely praised it, "This way, the effective ingredients in the fruit that relieve sleepiness can be preserved, Tibrim."

Tong Hua stared intently at the glass of pale purple milk, carefully placing it into a basin of ice water to cool it down. As the temperature dropped, a thin layer of purple milk skin gradually formed on the surface of the milk.

"Now!"

He exclaimed softly, carefully scooped up the layer of milk skin with a special strainer, and laid it flat on a piece of kitchen paper.

The milk skin quickly solidified in the air, forming a translucent purple sheet that emitted a cool aroma.

"Success!" Tong Hua excitedly held up the finished product, which was as thin as a cicada's wing, and looked through it at the sunlight outside the window.

"Next comes reconciliation, but before that—"

Tong Hua then took out several high-quality tree fruits from the basket containing the stored fruit, including cherry fruits used to treat paralysis.

Berries treat burns, limu nuts treat frostbite, and persimmons treat confusion.

The various tree fruits, arranged together, are a beautiful sight in their vibrant colors.

Tong Hua laid out the fruits one by one, and the workshop was immediately filled with the aroma of various fruits. He took a deep breath, and his eyes became focused.

"You wouldn't be thinking of—"

Tibrim's curls stood up slightly as she watched Tong Hua's lips gradually turn upward, her gaze becoming complicated once again.

"Blending so many different tree fruits right off the bat? That's too risky, Brie!"

Let's at least try two kinds first and gain some experience!

Tong Hua remained silent, only smiling.

At the same time, the actions of his subordinates completely confirmed Tibrim's conjecture.

"This kid—he really wants to mix six ingredients at once!"

Tibrim's curls exploded wildly, like a fluffy marshmallow: "Stop! This is too much, Brie!"

But at this moment, Tong Hua's hands had already started moving. He first poured peach fruit essence syrup into the crucible, and the light purple leftover fruit milk skin slowly melted into it.

The moment the two liquids come into contact, delicate bubbles appear and a pleasant fruity aroma is released.

"It seems this order is correct—" Tong Hua murmured, her hands continuing to gently sprinkle in the ground cherry fruit powder.

The moment the powder touched the liquid surface, the mixture in the crucible reacted violently, changing its color from pale purple to bright blue!

"Stop! Stop right now!" Tibrim cried out.

As if driven by some inspiration, Tong Hua not only did not stop, but also added berry juice. Red ripples immediately appeared in the blue liquid, like lava churning in the deep sea.

"Are you crazy, Brie?!" Tibrim jumped up and down on the worktable in a panic.

The final pieces of lilac and persimmon jam were added to the crucible almost simultaneously. The essence of the six tree fruits collided violently in the pot, and the colors changed wildly, from blue to red, from red to yellow, and finally presented a strange dark green.

The workshop was silent except for the bubbling sound of liquid churning in the crucible. Tong Hua held her breath, her eyes fixed on the increasingly thick liquid.

"Just one last step!"

Tong Hua picked up the leather-tanning magic book from the worktable beside him, and the page stopped at a blue pattern.

"The Ripple of Water!"

This was a move he had copied in advance, from the tanuki.

Only with water-attribute crystals provided by a water-elemental technique as a catalyst can this alchemical potion, which blends six different berries, be considered truly complete.

The expected violent reaction, explosion, and thick smoke did not occur, and Tibrim slowly lowered her small hands that had been covering her eyes.

His small eyes held a great deal of doubt.

Suddenly! All the colors returned to calm, the dark green gradually faded, and finally turned into a pot of clear, colorless liquid.

The surface of the liquid rippled slightly, reflecting the slightly surprised faces of Tong Hua and Tibrim.

"What... what is this?"

Tibrim cautiously approached the cauldron, confirming that it was not a colorless and odorless poison.

"It smells so good!"

A delicate fragrance wafted from the crucible, like the dew on a spring morning or a mountain stream. The aroma was subtle yet persistent, invigorating the senses.

"Did you really succeed? Are you some kind of genius?"

Upon hearing this, Tong Hua suppressed the rising corners of her mouth and pretended to be completely unconcerned.

"Hmm, I guess it can be considered a success?"

Looking at the rapidly increasing experience bar in his career panel, Tong Hua knew that at least his cheat system had approved of this alchemy process.

However, looking at the potion in the crucible again, he scratched his head in confusion.

[Unidentified potion: Quality?, colorless potion with unknown effects, and a sweet taste.]

【Effect:?】

[Review: Give it a try—there shouldn't be any side effects.]

Recommended processing method (alchemy).

"What the hell?"

Not only will they not provide the formula, but now they won't even let us see the quality and effects?

This cheat code is getting worse and worse —”

Tong Hua carefully used a glass dropper to draw some colorless reagent and dropped it into a test tube. The liquid flowed in the glass tube, refracting a crystal-clear luster.

"In short, since they've already been refined, we can't waste them."

But we don't have any lab mice at home, so we'll have to test the drugs ourselves, right?

"Or I could get poisoned first, and then see if this stuff can cure it?"

Hearing Tong Hua's unreliable statement, Tibrim rolled her eyes at him, and her curly hair suddenly shook excitedly: "Idiot! Just stand aside and watch, I have a way to test it."

"They're really asking for trouble, daring to use themselves as test subjects—"

"I was just saying—" Relying on the boost from her luck, Tong Hua wasn't actually that afraid of drug trials.

Even if we take a step back and assume that using so many kinds of tree fruits with healing effects, and making the potion myself, it would be really ridiculous if I actually got sick from drinking it.

Suddenly, Tibrim's curly hair stretched out like tentacles and took a piece of kitchen paper from the workbench next to her.

"Bree————"

After a few seconds of magical chanting, the originally ordinary paper began to emit a pure white holy light.

"Alright, pour the medicine on."

Tong Hua nodded and carefully dripped a drop of colorless medicine onto the glowing kitchen paper.

The medicine spread across the paper, forming peculiar ripples.

In no time, the originally white paper was coated with a layer of silver!

"You actually managed to do it!"

There's no mistake, silver represents healing, and at least this potion is indeed effective in healing abnormal conditions.

Whether it is a panacea that can cure all six abnormal conditions remains to be seen.

"How can we know exactly which abnormal states it is effective against?" Tong Hua asked, like a studious student.

"That depends on whether the test strip color changes further, but in my experience, once it turns silver, it's unlikely to change again—"

Before Tibrim could finish speaking, she saw that the originally silver kitchen paper had changed again!
