I traveled through time and space as a villain and became her heart-stealer.

"Thank you, Master."

She wiped her tears and choked up while saying strange words.

But when Gu Qinghan heard it, he felt sad.

"Leave it to me. In the next few days, I will do my best to solve the current difficulties."

"When everything is over..."

Gu Qinghan paused, suddenly thought of something, and then smiled meaningfully:

"Why don't the three of us have a barbecue together?"

Lianna was stunned at first, then she couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Then it's settled."

"It's a word."

The two people looked at each other and nodded slightly.

After seeing Lianna off, Gu Qinghan slammed the door shut, a layer of gloom on his face.

In this kingdom of pure love, in the corners where the sun doesn't shine, there are many shadows.

All he could do was to protect himself.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Qinghan slowly closed his eyes.

During the next period of time, he must concentrate all his attention on solving the current problem.

There are still two and a half days until Lina visits again.

The soul hypnosis potion has a longer production cycle than any other potion in the past.

Just freezing it takes two days.

In other words, Gu Qinghan has no chance of failure.

For this production, there was only one way to go.

That is success.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinghan gradually opened his eyes, and fighting spirit was already burning in his pupils.

Pharmaceutical production begins.

According to the secrets of hypnosis, the first step is to dissolve the hypnotic powder in saline.

Gu Qinghan skillfully took out the required reagents and used the props on the alchemy table to first pour saline solution into the measuring cylinder, and then poured in a dose of hypnotic powder.

The solution was quickly prepared.

The second step is to put the dissolved liquid into the heart and refrigerate it for two days.

Gu Qinghan put on white rubber gloves and carefully opened the black box, peeling off the veil layer by layer like peeling an onion.

It was not until the third layer of cardboard boxes was opened that Gu Qinghan saw a heart with a slightly strange shape appearing in the fist-sized box.

Boom!Boom!

Gu Qinghan stared at this obviously abnormal heart with a cold gaze, and inexplicably felt his scalp tingling.

The bloody heart was beating inside the small box.

The sunlight shone through the gap in the black curtains and into the black cardboard box. The moment it touched the sunlight, colorful mist emerged from the surface of the heart, forcibly distorting the light.

From Gu Qinghan's perspective, the area illuminated by the light source seemed to have become a "gap".

This is the self-protection of the inner demon.

The heart did not disappear, it was just that Gu Qinghan could not see it.

The inner demon can use light as a medium to distort people's objective cognition and interfere with their hearts.

This is why it is used as a medicinal ingredient.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Qinghan took out one of the hearts, held it in both hands, and placed it on the white cloth sheet that had been prepared on the table in advance.

Next, the real process of potion refining will begin.

Hypnotic saline reagent is injected from the arterial opening, and then cryopreservation begins.

You only have one chance, you can only succeed, not fail.

Chapter 14 Unexpected Difficulties

According to the steps of the secret of hypnosis, after injecting the hypnotic saline reagent, it needs to be cooled.

To ensure the success rate, Gu Qinghan first took out the ice cubes and placed them around the beating heart in advance, and then injected the hypnotic solution.

Less than ten seconds later, the originally obvious jumps gradually became slower and the amplitude began to decrease.

Five minutes later, the inner demon's heart could only be described as "trembling".

The amplitude of the jump is almost zero, and the mind-distorting ability also slows down.

The parts that had been illuminated by the sunlight and seemed to have "disappeared" gradually revealed their original appearance.

Gu Qinghan looked at the heart on the table and breathed a sigh of relief.

This proves that Gu Qinghan's experimental operation was correct.

Over the next two days, this ability will gradually be stripped away and infiltrated into the hypnotic solution.

That is the real purpose of step one.

With the help of the dissolution of the hypnotic powder, the power of the inner demon will gradually be taken away.

Looking at the purple-red heart covered with ice, Gu Qinghan gradually clenched his fists, with a glimmer of expectation in his eyes.

By now, he was already somewhat curious about what the final product would look like.

After processing the first heart, Gu Qinghan followed suit and processed the second heart using the same method.

Prepare a hypnotic solution, inject it into the heart, and finally cover the heart with ice.

Ten minutes later, two hearts of the same size were photographed side by side, covered with ice and sorbet covering their surfaces.

In this way, the first step of making the mind hypnosis potion is completed.

Next comes step two.

Burn the demon core of the inner demon and obtain ash.

It sounds like this step is obviously much more normal. However, because of this, Gu Qinghan became more vigilant.

Igniting the magic core of the inner demon will undoubtedly increase the indoor temperature to some extent.

However, freezing the heart requires that the indoor temperature be kept extremely low.

Gu Qinghan frowned, staring at the apple-sized magic core in his hand, vaguely feeling that this was a trap.

If the pharmacist is not careful, the two may affect each other, resulting in the failure of medicine making.

Moreover, Hohenheim kindly wrote in his notes:

"After the liquid medicine absorbs the essence of the heart, it will become flammable. Please use it with caution."

This seemed to be reminding him to be careful when calcining the magic core and to stay away from the extraction liquid to avoid burning it.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Qinghan pulled all the black curtains together, leaving only the last ray of light that was barely enough to see objects clearly.

Curtains can block sunlight to a certain extent to reduce sunlight exposure and prevent room temperature from rising.

At the same time, Gu Qinghan also transferred the frozen heart to the bathroom to ensure that the distance for burning the magic core would be far enough away so as not to affect it.

"Why didn't I think of this before? The refrigerator is really the greatest invention of mankind..."

Gu Qinghan sighed lightly, wiped the sweat from his forehead gently, and complained helplessly in his heart.

If there was a refrigerator, why would we need to go through so much trouble?

Just throw the heart in the freezer!

For the next two days, whether eating or sleeping, Gu Qinghan had to ensure that the ice would not melt and maintain the cooling effect for a long time.

With his current abilities, the estimated success rate of completing the LV.3 potion is less than %.

All means must be taken to ensure maximum "penetration" efficiency.

Therefore, Gu Qinghan rummaged through the drawers and found an alarm clock in the corner of a dusty bookshelf.

Every hour, Gu Qinghan set the alarm to ring, reminding him to add ice to ensure that his heart remained cold.

At the same time, he found firewood and set up a small combustion furnace, placed the magic core of the mind demon in it, and began the long calcination process.

The day passed in a blink of an eye.

The sun set and rose again, and the hands of the wall clock turned round and round.

In the bathroom, the heart covered in ice was still beating, but it was much slower than at the beginning.

During these 24 hours, Gu Qinghan did not get a full night's sleep. Every hour, he would go to the bathroom to make sure his heart was stable.

The ice has been changed seven or eight times, and the temperature of the entire bathroom has become cold due to the melting of the ice.

The wet ground has condensed into frost.

at the same time.

Outside the bathroom, on the alchemy table.

The raging furnace continued to burn, and the red flames licked the contents. It had been exactly 24 hours since the purple-black magic core was thrown in.

It was calcined red, at a temperature of thousands of degrees.

This is as it should be. Although this furnace looks small, it is actually an experimental tool left by Hohenheim, and its calcination capacity is amazing.

But even so, the demon core of the inner demon still did not turn into ashes.

On the contrary, only the surface was burned red, but it still maintained its original shape.

Gu Qinghan frowned, staring at the magic core in the small stove, feeling troubled.

Another six hours passed.

In the bathroom, the frozen heart has completely stopped beating, indicating that most of the characteristics of the mental demon have penetrated into the hypnotic solution.

It can be said that the experiment went quite smoothly.

However, since Hohenheim had clearly written 48 hours in his notes, he decided to continue waiting to ensure that the dissolution time reached two days so that the experiment would be successful in one go.

However, on the other side, on the alchemy table, the combustion experiment in the furnace had not made any progress.

Under the licking of the flames, the purple-red magic core still maintained its original shape without any change.

Aside from the occasional spark, it was exactly the same as it was at the beginning.

Gu Qinghan paced back and forth in the room with a frown on his face.

The experiment encountered unexpected difficulties.

According to the records in the Secret of Hypnosis, in order to successfully create the final potion, one must obtain the magic core ashes and dissolve them in the heart extract.

But at the current rate of burning, it would be impossible to complete it even if he was given three more days and three nights.

This put Gu Qinghan in a dilemma.

Could it be that the burning temperature of the stove is still not high enough?

Shouldn't.

A thousand-degree experimental furnace should be enough to melt the magic core.

He vaguely felt that something was not right.

The magic core of this mental demon seems to be a little unusual.

Another six hours passed.

The heart in the bathroom remained motionless, as if it was completely dead.

Gu Qinghan still followed the alarm clock's reminder and added a batch of ice cubes every hour to keep the bathroom temperature low.

On the alchemy table, the magic core in the small furnace remained unchanged.
