Shaking the World

"Eh? Junior, do you want to learn alchemy?" Lunita blinked at Lorraine with her cute big eyes, "Have you ever been exposed to alchemy before?"

Lorraine shook her head.

"Then can you tell the blood of a monster?"

"Do you know what extraction is?"

"What about distillation?"

"What about refining?"

"You know the three major methods of deployment, right?"

"What, don't you know? How much do you know about alchemy?"

"I know the steps of preparing the medicine." Lorraine said weakly.

"That's it?"

"Ah."

...

The two of them stared at each other for a full 30 seconds before Lunita sighed and said, "I said junior, you don't even know the basics of alchemy, and you want to become one in a short time." It is impossible for an alchemist apprentice to refine potions in exchange for points. Senior sister, I advise you to give up. Why don't you help senior sister distribute leaflets to publicize senior sister's alchemy potions, and I can give you Pay some wages."

"Sister, why don't you teach me how to become an alchemist." Lorraine said firmly.

Yes, Lorraine is finally going to do alchemy. After returning from Naluo City, Lorraine began to consider the issue of points. Although they handed in the task of the shadow tiger cub in exchange for more than 200 points, but that It can only solve the urgent need, after a while he should worry about points again.

It would take too much time to earn points by doing tasks, so he felt that he must have a skill to earn points continuously, and finally he thought of alchemy.

He flipped through the alchemy notes thrown to him by the bald alchemist Weber in the most inconspicuous corner of the space ring, but found that there were only some text descriptions on it, and he could only understand the previous ones. In the introductory chapter, he only knows characters after that.

In desperation, he had no choice but to look for Lunita. Although his buddy Hank also majored in alchemy, he was just getting started after all, and he couldn't compare with Lunita, who was already able to make profits through alchemy.

"Dear junior, do you know how much effort it takes to teach a person to make the first effective potion independently from scratch? Senior sister, I have experienced it, so you'd better give up this unrealistic Everyone’s time is precious, so why don’t you do other, more meaningful things?”

"Uh, so senior sister, do you have any quick fixes? For example, if you teach me how to make a potion, I will specialize in refining this potion. Do you think this will work? If that's the case, I don't have to To learn to distinguish the blood of monsters, you don't need to memorize other formulas, do you?" Lorraine looked hopefully.

Lunita gave Lorraine a white look, the corners of her mouth curled up, but the dimples on her face were squeezed deep, making her look extremely cute.

"Primary school boy, don't say such things in front of other alchemists in the future. You know a pharmacist who can concoct intermediate-level potions... Oh, by the way, the senior here needs to teach you some common sense. In fact , alchemist is a general term. Alchemy covers a very wide range, including medicine, metallurgy, machinery, magic energy, etc., which are all alchemy categories. Therefore, to be called a qualified alchemist, one must be proficient in mathematics and science , pharmacology, biology, plants, mobility, etc. Strictly speaking, an alchemist like me who can only mix potions can only be regarded as a pharmacist. However, my sister is also working hard to learn other things. Oh stuff, hee hee!"

Lorraine nodded seriously, and said, "Senior sister, what's wrong with the pharmacist who can make intermediate medicine?"

"Oh oh oh, didn't I just want to tell you this? Don't interrupt me!" Under Lorraine's innocent gaze, Lunita continued, "Dear junior, sister asked you, are you Do you think pharmacist is a very lucrative profession? Is it a profiteering business? Do you think that senior sister is killing you by selling you a dozen gold coins for a bottle of medicine that costs less than 1 gold coin?"

Lorraine kept nodding until the last sentence, he subconsciously nodded and then shook his head hastily.

This senior sister spoke too straightforwardly, and spoke out what he had been thinking all along.

Lunita blinked her big eyes twice, staring at Lorraine who was a little dodgy, and asked: "Then, junior, an intermediate pharmacist who can make intermediate alchemy potions, do you think he can make elementary alchemy potions?" What is the success rate?"

"The success rate of intermediate pharmacists concocting elementary alchemy potions? How much?" Lorraine looked bewildered.

Lunita slowly stretched out three fingers, her eyes widened, and she seemed to be trying to hold back a sentence: "30...not even!"

"So low?"

Lorraine was taken aback. Is it so difficult for intermediate pharmacists to refine primary alchemy potions?Isn't it something that comes at your fingertips?

"Is it low? This is the success rate of a skilled pharmacist with a certain amount of experience. If the success rate can be stabilized at 30, it is already a very good level!"

Seeing that Lorraine seemed to be still in shock, Lunita continued: "Scholar, tell me, even a skilled mid-level pharmacist has only such a small success rate in refining medicine, you let a person who has never learned anything How low do you think the success rate will be for a layman to mix medicine?"

Seeing Lorraine nodding silently, Lunita smiled gratifiedly and said, "Now you understand why senior sister told you not to say that kind of thing again? Do you think pharmacist is a very rich career? Hehe, Then you are very wrong, pharmacist, that is a profession that burns money! You can only earn that meager income in the process of constantly dispensing and selling medicines, and improve your income bit by bit. If you don’t have a pious love for this profession, then senior sister, I advise you to give up the idea of ​​becoming a pharmacist.”

Seeing Lunima's serious expression, Lorraine fell silent. At this moment, he couldn't help hesitating. If it's really as difficult as the other party said, it's really not necessary to practice it. After all, for him, Alchemy, no, alchemy is an extremely unfamiliar field. He had never learned this knowledge at all before. He thought that he had the alchemy notes given to him by Weber Mackey, and then asked Lunita for advice on how to prepare potions. With the same process and techniques, he can successfully master the skills of refining medicine and become an alchemist, but who knows that Lunita poured cold water on his head, making him recognize the cruel reality.
