Chapter 25 Preparation of Potions
7:[-] am.

Truman opened his eyes on time. This is a habit he has developed for many years at work. Whether it is the earth or another world, he has always insisted on the identity and work schedule of a worker.

He looked out of the window, in the sky of another world, there was a sliver of morning light, no different from the earth, but it always made Truman feel a kind of loneliness.

Today, it is too late to experience that loneliness more, he has more important things to do today.

He needs to move up a level.

The recipe and ingredients brought back last night are in his apartment.

Of course it is impossible for him to be promoted to Extraordinary in this apartment.

Despite the high rent, this apartment is still a mixed bag.

In addition, too many people know that Truman lives here.

As for where to upgrade, Truman already has a secret plan.

Looking at those upgrade materials, Truman recalled the words he recorded on the notepad on the other side of the earth last night:
"I'm doing an interesting experiment..."

"I chose 'Monkey', 'Wukong', and 'Pretender' as the components of the three rings of potion. If there are other traversers, they must know what these spiritual texts point to, haha..."

"Because I vaguely understood the connection between the Extraordinary system of the other world and the potion and spiritual text, so I made such an attempt..."

"The principle of 'unique existence' in Lingwen may be more far-reaching than I imagined. It may be the basic rules of the extraordinary world, and it is like the gravitational force of the earth..."

"If I can find the spiritual text related to the 'Wukong' system in the future and use it to make promotion potions, then everything I do now may become the possibility of obtaining more extraordinary power..."

"Because the principle of 'unique existence' also applies to Extraordinary individuals, starting from the first level of Extraordinary, if you use a spiritual system to advance all the way..."

"What will you gain? Will it be stronger than other Extraordinary people of the same level?"

"If this line of thinking is correct, then this is my unique path as a potion master. The potions I concoct will be stronger than those concocted by anyone, including the teacher..."

"So, let's consider this a casual move. Anyway, the teacher also said that the strength of a first-level potion is not much different from any spiritual script used to prepare it."

……

Now, Truman packed up all the materials, put them in his briefcase, left the apartment and walked towards the city center.

This time, the direction to go is not the direction of Habsburg, but the real central bustling area of ​​the city. There are gradually more pedestrians along the way, and more carriages are galloping on the street.

Truman could see a lady wearing a top hat sitting in a carriage, and he could also see a man wearing a tall hat walking along the street.

People in this world like hats so much that it seems that they have no identity without wearing hats.

About half an hour later, Truman saw a sign named 'Royal Oak Hotel', behind the sign was a four-story building, although it was not as rich as Habsburg, but it was second to none in the city of Lundiny up.

This is the goal of Truman, the most luxurious hotel in the city. It is said that this hotel was once a royal palace and is still run by the royal family, so it should be safer.

Truman stepped up the steps leading to the hotel. He looked at the doorman and felt a little doubt in the doorman's eyes. Probably, few guests who came to the Royal Oak Hotel came on foot.

In addition, the doorman noticed the mud on Truman's leather shoes-that can only show that Truman came from outside the central city.

However, identity verification is not required to stay in the hotel. After Truman handed over four gold coins to the waiter, he obtained the right to use one of the rooms in the Royal Oak Hotel for 3 days.

Truman felt a little distressed.

too expensive!
The three-day accommodation cost was 3 gold pounds, and the meal cost was 1 gold pound. After Truman paid these, there was only less than 15 gold pounds left in the deposit.

Fortunately, Lilith's 20 gold pounds are in Truman's pocket at the moment.

Alright alright.

It is also worth spending money on security.

Truman seized the time and didn't have time to visit this luxurious room with royal specifications, but started to prepare the potion.

He had told the waiter not to disturb him as the food was left at the door.

Now, Truman looked at the time, it was around 9 o'clock in the morning, the bright white sun outside the window cast a white curtain in the air, and he drew the curtains to prevent the sunlight from entering the room.

The sun, the moon and the stars, in potion science, are all existences that can interfere with the success rate of blending. According to the workshop owner, they represent the 'gods'.

"Low-level potions only pick up the basic laws of spirituality flowing in the world, and will not attract the attention of the 'gods', but you must also be careful, because once the 'gods' pay attention to you, your potion will be destroyed. gone."

This is what the workshop owner said.

The method is like what Truman is doing now, pulling the heavy curtains to block the sunlight that represents the attention of the 'gods' outside the window.

Of course, electricity doesn't allow it either.

"Electricity is also the tentacles of the 'gods', but not fire, which is the ray of human wisdom."

So Truman lit the candle he had prepared.

While the candlelight was flickering, Truman first placed all the potion ingredients in the center of the room, and then began to pace around the ingredients in a regular triangle.

The regular triangle is a figure with spirituality.

It is the gateway to the gods in this extraordinary world.

As Truman repeated more and more steps, his "share" began to decrease, and three almost invisible spiritual walls had already been erected on the three sides of the regular triangle.

This spiritual wall is invisible and invisible, but it can separate a territory that belongs only to Truman from reality.

Truman is not yet extraordinary, and the spiritual wall cannot affect others.

In the future, as Truman goes further and further on the extraordinary road, this spiritual wall will also be able to confine the realm that truly belongs to Truman.

Truman suddenly thought that when the owner of the workshop took him to watch the pharmacy, those wonderful curtains that separated reality and dreams that he saw might be the spiritual wall of the owner of the workshop.

At this moment, inside Truman's spiritual wall, the white peacock heart, century-old sycamore branches and fireflies have not yet changed, but the spiritual inscription on the lambskin scroll has already shown spiritual brilliance.

Those spiritual inscriptions are like stars, shining brightly there, just waiting for Truman to pick them up.

But not in a hurry, Truman took out the medicine pot and pestle, and began to crush the three basic materials before adding the spirit text.

Outside the window, from daytime to noon to nightfall, the waiter had changed meals at the door several times, but he had never seen Truman go out to pick up the meal.

……

"Still no results?"

Pound asked Xia Yan at the headquarters of the Red Gloves team in Lundinney.

"There is a strange result." Xia Yan said, she held the "spiritual characteristics" in the form of a cane in her hand.

The whole day today, Xia Yan used this cane repeatedly to find the existence of the polluted person.

Since the polluted person cannot be directly divined, the urban residents infected by the polluted person can be predicted.

In the Battle of the Workshop, under the ambush of the Red Gloves, the Polluter narrowly escaped, but was also injured.

The overall strength of the Red Gloves team is very strong, and the sequences are complementary, and they cooperate with each other tacitly. As long as they are targeted by them, no matter whether it is an Extraordinary or a polluter who is still in the extraordinary rank, it is impossible to retreat unscathed.

After the polluter is injured, his "pollution" will "flow" out more. Ordinary human beings will be mentally intimidated and even insane when they see such pollution.

Therefore, if you target ordinary humans for divination, if you are lucky, you will be able to show the traces of the polluters like pencil dust spread on the imprints-this is also a helpless method.

"It's in the central area of ​​the city." Xia Yan said, "The polluter has appeared before. He seems to be looking for someone, but he hasn't attacked anyone."

Pound also felt puzzled. If the polluter still had reason, he would choose to leave the city. If he had no reason, he would continue to pursue knowledge. Now he is wandering in the central area, what is he doing?What is his goal?
"Do you need the Bishop to point us in the right direction?" Xia Yan asked suddenly.

"No, it doesn't look like he's very dangerous." Pound shook his head. "After all, he hasn't killed anyone. Moreover, if he continues to devour knowledge, he will destroy himself."

This is why the Red Gloves did not ask for assistance from 'superior'.

That is, the polluters don't seem that dangerous and are ready to self-destruct at any time.
