Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 387 The Elixir

It is rare in this world for two top alchemists to join forces.

After all, there are very few top alchemists like Perfecto and Wei'er who are capable of leading an era, so few that there may not even be one in an era.

If Wei'er had not suffered a curse a hundred years ago and her age had regressed back to the stage of a young girl, she would not have been able to survive these hundred years.

The extraordinary people in this world are slightly different from those in the high-magic world. Although their lifespans are indeed extended by becoming extraordinary people, living to a hundred or so years old is the limit. I have never heard of anyone who can live over 200 years old.

Although Wei'er was the top alchemist of the era a hundred years ago, she was not a cheating player like Perfectocte. It took her half a lifetime to reach the legendary level.

So considering the nearly 100 years since she suffered the backlash, if Wei'er hadn't encountered an accident, even if she wasn't buried in the ground, her end would have been almost up.

At least in Wei'er's own understanding, the other two old guys who suffered the backlash like herself and survived are now basically like candles in the wind, and they don't have many days left to live.

In fact, her condition was not much better. Although her body had regressed to her childhood state so that she would not reach the end of her life due to aging and wear and tear, the spiritual damage she had suffered had been tormenting and bothering her.

If Wei'er didn't have some methods to repair soul damage, she would have died decades ago due to the severity of the soul damage.

The fact that she is still alive today only shows that she has some means to support herself.

Now, Perfecto, an alchemist who in her opinion was as talented and capable as her, was willing to help her solve the curse she had suffered, and even took out the Philosopher's Stone, an incredible thing. Wei'er felt that she still had a little hope of lifting the curse.

Even if not, I think the Philosopher's Stone can greatly improve her physical condition.

This is what Weier thought and expected.

And the development of things did not disappoint her expectations.

"It seems that the problem you are facing is much more serious than I thought. Even if I use the Philosopher's Stone to make an elixir to repair your body and soul, it will be difficult to make you recover completely." Perfect couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he saw the changes in Wei'er's body after she drank a bottle of elixir.

But Wei'er herself was very satisfied with the current situation. She put down the potion bottle in her hand and smiled at Perfect, "What I suffered was the backlash of the power of the gods, which has troubled me for nearly a hundred years! If it could be solved so easily, I wouldn't have had no improvement for nearly a hundred years.

Even though the elixir of immortality cannot completely heal my body, it can greatly repair the damage to my soul and improve my physical condition. If nothing unexpected happens, this bottle of medicine will be enough for me to support me for another ten years!

For a person who could die at any time, this is a huge improvement. At least this is the first time I feel so relaxed in all these years."

Wei'er couldn't hide the smile on her face. After all, the elixir made with the Philosopher's Stone was really effective.

Although the effect is not as good as expected, it is an acceptable result and even better than Wei'er expected.

At least for Wei'er, the immortality potion can indeed improve her condition. As long as she can take the medicine regularly, the curse that troubles her will not continue to threaten her until the immortality potion loses its effect. Even if Perfect is willing to give her more immortality potion, her strength and physical condition can gradually return to the legendary level of the past.

If she could recover her own strength, the curse caused by the backlash of divine power might not be unbreakable for Wei'er.

She has not been able to improve her situation for nearly a hundred years. The biggest problem is that her strength has been greatly affected after she regressed to the form of a young girl. She has long fallen from the status of a legend and many of her methods are no longer available to her, so naturally there is no way she can solve her own problems.

But now? Wei'er felt that even if she couldn't solve the problem, she could rely on the elixir to hold on until Perfectoct crossed that threshold and had the strength to help her.

Not to mention, she could also work together with Perfectot and combine the strengths of both to solve her own problems.

In Wei'er's opinion, both she and Perfecto have problems that they cannot solve, but when the two of them join forces, any problem that can be solved by alchemy is no longer a problem for them.

This is the confidence of top alchemists, and also the recognition of each other's abilities.

Although Perfect was not as confident as Wei'er, she did not think that Wei'er's situation was difficult to solve.

After all, she still has the magical artifact, the Emerald Jade Record. If things really don't work, the worst that can happen is that she will waste an opportunity to acquire new technology and use the technology provided by the Emerald Jade Record to solve the problem.

Moreover, the power of the seventh page of the Emerald Jade Record is omniscience. As long as she can turn this page and possess the power of omniscience, what else in this world can stump her?
The only question now is how long it will take her to turn to page 7.

The time is indeed not fixed at this point, because even Perfecto herself doesn't know how long it will take her to digest a technology.

It was as if now, she was stuck on the fourth page, and could not turn to the new fifth page.

Of course, this is also because most of Perfecto's energy and time have been spent on various affairs in the North during this period of time.

If she was really willing to focus her time and energy on applying new technologies, Perfect felt that she would only need a year at most to turn to page six, or maybe even page seven.

Logically speaking, as someone who had mastered fantasy alchemy and possessed the Philosopher's Stone, it should be easy for Perfectoct to turn to the fourth page. After all, she only needed to make an application of the results of fantasy alchemy technology.

Now that Perfect has developed Utopian Alchemy to the point where the Philosopher's Stone is no longer needed and has spread this technology, various results have actually emerged like mushrooms after rain.

Although there are not many results that are eye-catching, there are also some that are full of fantastic ideas and broad prospects.

But for Perfect, she can only use the results of her own research to open a new page of the Jade Record, and cannot use the results of others to make up the number.

However, in view of Wei'er's situation and the current problems faced by the North, Perfectoct felt that he might consider turning to the fourth page first to see what the capabilities of this page were, and to consider what the newly acquired technology would require.
