“Then let’s start with the composition of medicinal ingredients. In potionology, the decomposition analysis of medicinal ingredients is done in a special way. Do you remember the formula for the warlord potion? ” “Yeah, I remember. I’ll write it. ” Fang Heng listed the names of dozens of medicinal ingredients. “Hint: your Intellligence points have reached over 15 points. You are able to use potionology for the decomposition analysis of potions… ” … “Hint: Xiao Ruoruo has imparted teachings of potionology to you. Your skill of basic potionology has gained 347 experience points and increased to level 4. ” Two and a half hours later, Xiao Ruoruo finished all the decomposition analysis and recomposition. “Mhm, it’s done. ” Xiao Ruoruo wiped the sweat on the tip of her nose. “Fang Heng, take a look. ” Fang Heng leaned over and took out the list. “Hint: you and Xiao Ruoruo have completed the modification-cum-recomposition of the warlord potion. You have come up with the new potion formula (incomplete) . You can name the formula. ” “Modified warlord potion. ” “Hint: you have completed the preliminary structure of the modified warlord potion. You have gained 788 experience points in potionology. ” “Hint: your potionology level has upgraded to level 5. ” “Awesome! Xiao Ruoruo, you’ve been a great help! ” Fang Heng was in a great mood after completing the modified potion. Xiao Ruoruo’s face flushed red. “No, not really… I still need to make some minor adjustments to the composition of the ingredients. The specific formula is not considered complete yet. ” “It’s already very impressive! I’ll just go back to the game to test and perfect the formula. You’ve been a great help to me. I’m in a hurry today. I’ll bring you some delicious food next time. ” “Okay. Keep your word, Fang Heng. ” Fang Heng hurriedly got up, bade farewell, and quickly left the living room. Phew. Seeing Fang Heng leave the room in a hurry, Xiao Ruoruo wiped the sweat on her forehead. Doing decomposition analysis and recomposition on a medicinal formula had consumed a lot of her energy. However, Xiao Ruoruo still felt very happy that she could help her good friend whom she had just met. Thud, thud. Mr. Sun knocked on the door and walked into the room. He glanced at Mo Jiawei who was still sleeping soundly on the couch. “Ruoruo, you must be very tired. Your body is not suitable for staying up so late. There’s no need to tire yourself so badly. ” Xiao Ruoruo smiled. “It’s all right, Mr. Sun. Fang Heng is my good friend. I’m very happy to be able to help him. ” Mr. Sun sighed in his heart. He wanted to say something but stopped. “All right. It’s late. Go and rest. ” … “Hint: player has failed to produce a potion sample. Some of the ingredients have been damaged and can not be used anymore. ” “Hint: player has failed to complete the formula! ” “Sh*t! I failed again! ” In the warehouse in-game, Fang Heng cursed in a rather displeased manner. Making a potion sample was much more difficult than he had imagined. The final step of perfecting the formula required a more precise allocation of the ingredients. Ordinary players would need to spend a month or two to master the formula. Fang Heng was clueless about potion theory and did not know how to calculate the proportions, so he tried a few times based on feeling. Unsurprisingly, it ended in failure. Fang Heng scratched his head. “Whatever! I might as well use the stupidest method of trial and error. There’re enough zombie teams and medicinal ingredients to test out one by one. ” Fang Heng was a little irritated. He turned around and glanced at the dozen or so potioneers in the room. Noticing Fang Heng’s gaze, the potioneers who were on standby felt a chill in their hearts. As fellow potioneers, they knew that consecutive failure in potion making put potioneers in a bad mood. With an unfriendly tone, Fang Heng commanded, “Hey, you guys, prepare the ingredients needed to make the potion. As per this formula, make hundreds of different dosage combinations… ” The potioneers took the potion formula from Fang Heng and looked at it. They were stunned at first, then they started to discuss it together. “So, Fang Heng has been trying to develop a new formula for the warlord potion all this while. How amazing! It’s only been a night, yet he’s already managed to modify the ingredient composition like that. The potioneers gathered together and looked at the formula given by Fang Heng, all amazed. In the formula, some of the changes could be considered as a stroke of genius! “A new formula? ” “Amazing, it can be modified like this. I didn’t expect there to be such a method. ” “But can these two ingredients still be combined? ” “Indeed, they can. Look at this… ” The potioneers discussed in low voices. From time to time, they would sneak a glance at Fang Heng. “Hint: your ability of potion making has gained the recognition and respect of the potioneers. ” “Hint: your reputation points in the Scavenger Army have increased significantly. ” “Hint: potioneers’ loyalty to the Scavenger Army has increased slightly. ” “Hint: Potioneer Harley is in awe of you… ” Fang Heng looked at the game hints that flashed and the potioneers that were in constant discussion, and his mind immediately buzzed. “Good heavens, I’m treating you guys as tools to sort medicinal ingredients. What are you all discussing? It’s not like I can bring you back to District 8 to make potions. I don’t care about your recognition and respect, ” thought Fang Heng. Cough, cough! Fang Heng coughed heavily, interrupting the conversation of the potioneers. “Hey, you guys, hurry up and start concocting the potions! ” The potioneers respected and feared Fang Heng at the same time. Hearing his order, they immediately stopped their discussion and began to make potions. Fang Heng controlled zombie clones to start making potions through trial and error. Channeling bar after channeling bar appeared above the zombie clones’ heads, and game hint after game hint appeared in Fang Heng’s vision. “Hint: your zombie clone failed to make the potion… ” “Hint: your zombie clone failed to make the potion… ” … “Hint: your zombie clone has completed the production of modified warlord potion sample. Current potion quality: C. ” “Hint: you have perfected the potion formula of modified warlord potion. ” “Hint: during the process of perfecting the potion formula, you have gained a new understanding of potionology. Your skill of basic potion making has upgraded. You have gained the new skill of intermediate potion making. ” “Finally… It’s done! After 157 consecutive failures, there’s finally a zombie clone that’s completed the sample making and perfected the potion formula! Trial and error is indeed the best! I’ve even gained the new skill of intermediate potion making! ” Fang Heng let out a sigh in his heart. He took out the bottle of freshly made potion and held it in his hand to observe. Item: modified warlord potion. Quality: C. Description: after being concocted with a special method, the warlord potion’s stimulation effects has increased. After a user consumes it, in a short period of time, their various attributes, as well as effects such as HP recovery, vitality recovery, rapid energy recovery, and regeneration of severed limbs, will greatly increase (only effective for players or NPCs who have taken the divine potion). Creator: Fang Heng. “Success! Let’s look at the skill… ” Fang Heng’s eyes sparkled with excitement. He opened and observed the skill panel. Skill: intermediate potion making. Description: Intellligence + 1. You can make potions according to the formula. The success rate of potion making will be increased. There is a chance to make a potion with a higher effect. The probability is related to the skill level. Description: this skill can be upgraded to level 30 and can not exceed the player’s current level. (after the skill is maxed out, you can try to upgrade the skill) .
