Master Of None-Chapter 1666 1666. In Alchemy History
Walker was already doing the all around appraisal of the potion they had just made. How could he miss the chance to see what their work had made? He could already feel the balanced mana in the potion. The water and fire elemental mana was perfectly mixed without causing any volatile reaction.
But what was making him more amazed was the sparkling purple color of the potion. It had become so little in volume yet had become much purer than expected. He was certain that the first attempt they had made to make a dual fire and water affinity potion was not going to be some low tier potion.
' mid tier Dual affinity potion; Fire and Water
The potion created by sudden inspiration used rare herbs which held both Fire and Water elemental mana naturally. Normally, the herbs would lose one mana or the other while being refined. Instead, they reached a balance using alchemy and dragon fire. Added water elemental manipulation also played a large role in this.
This potion can only be made by multiple individuals at the current time with the surrender formula. It has room to improve if fresher herbs and a better trained alchemist works on it.
The enhanced ability to understand and use Fire and Water elemental mana in tandem will greatly help educate whoever consumes it. They must have a prior affinity to both water and fire elemental mana to use this potion or else there will be heavy side effects that may even cause death.'
The appraisal was nothing to scoff at. All three of them were amazed by it. It might not be a high potion but it was a low tier potion that clearly only existed because they had worked together.
The risk taken hadn't been that great but the reward was massive. The herbs had mostly been dried or preserved herbs so high tier had been impossible. Yet, they had achieved mid tier as the first affinity potion due to their skills combined.
"It's way better than I thought! It even smells good and not like some of the experiments we have done making regular affinity potions. The earth affinity potion smells like swamp mud!" For whatever reason Remey was ecstatic about the smell over other things. However, Walker just added this up to being so excited about the entire potion and this was all she was able to say before she exploded with energy.
"This is ideal. I will take this when we return to your village and bring one of the children from my villages to try it. It will be a good learning opportunity for you to see a dual elemental dragon consume your potion." There was not a single drop of anger in Ignus. He was truly proud of this and how it could be used to improve the dragons.
"So, when you write the first formula down Ignus and I will have credit in the history of alchemy now?" Walker looked at Remey to see her nod before rushing to grab a notebook. She had nearly forgotten to write everything down so she could pass it on to others later for more experimentation.
" the ember herbs were the first change. Worth the investment but they have to be the newborn leaves next time. The snowflake moss helped with cooling but caused a drastic change. Next time we should use the ivory ice moss or snow crystal mold. It could be…"
"And that's how we lose Remey." Walker knew very well that Remey would be caught up in her own mind for some time. She had a lot to write about the potion they made. It would not be a surprise if she filled the entire journal about potential changes and how the potion reacted to certain herbs.
The depth that she went it to crushing and grinding some herbs had to be documented. The order and exact way of addition also had to play a large role. If some alchemists attempted to try this differently then they could cause an explosion or worse. Especially since the three had just used a combination of alchemy and dragon flames to make this potion in the first place.
"You will store two of those for me. They need to be protected in an alternate space where they must not be damaged!" Ignus made a solid order of this. It wasn't out of cruelty or anger but worry. If the potions broke during the trip then all their work would be lost.
"I wouldn't let them get broken. It's a great chance to meet a younger dragon from your village. But I am curious, have you decided to invest in Genesis without holding back anymore?" The reason Walker asked this was a simple one. He wanted to hear Ignus admit that he had changed and stopped being stubborn.
"If this is the future you see for dragons. To work I'm alchemy and ignore their true calling to be strong…then no. I do not accept it. If you mean to tell me that they can become powerful and create a hierarchy where the weaklings can help the strong rise, well, I would prefer that than sending them to the lava fields to fight for their right to live." f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦
While Ignus had a slightly askew point of view, it was better than before everything had happened since Walker met him. If Ignus would completely change his methods in his village and allow the future weak fire dragon hatchlings to grow, it was spectacular.
"I promise you, when you see those hatchlings in Genesis when we return, you will see new dragons. They will not be what you expect but they will hold power in a new place. Maybe even as an alchemy genius." This seemed to appease Ignus. He moved to sit and growled slightly which Walker had heard Midnight do when she was happy.
"I will leave you to wait for Remey to make a fire affinity potion. I'm sure someone has gotten in to trouble on the top deck. I should check in." Walker wasn't clear on how long he had been in the alchemy lab. The thing about alchemy and focus was that it could take hours and only feel like minutes.
The sweat and build up of fumes on his clothing and skin made Walker feel that hours was more like it than minutes. Especially since he also had a surprising amount of soot on his hands from parts of herbs that burned off. "Ugh, I'll need to clean up too."
After changing and washing up a little, Walker made his way to the top deck and found that the ribbon fish netting had long ended. There was a normal patrol and the sun was actually setting. But Walker was not too surprised since he knew that he had the chance of missing the entire day just by focusing on alchemy in a windowless room. How could he have told the time?
"Finally out of seclusion somewhere? I was looking for you!" The energetic voice came from none other than Elise. She was holding a stack of papers and had been working constantly. "I wanted you to take a look at these plans to set up a port when we stop the ships on the new continent. I had them from when I left Genesis but we keep altering them the more we think. You should have a skill that draws plans and maps, right?"
"Umm, well…about that." Walker had not focused on paperwork. He had actually avoided it more than anything else. It wasn't that he didn't want to learn new skills. He just didn't want to sit and do a lot of work sitting. It just wasn't what he thought an adventurer should do.
"Then we will help you get one. Then we can do anything else. The faster you learn a skill the faster these can be gone. Great way to learn, right? You love learning new skills, right!?" Walker heard a small laugh and caught Gil and Su looking his way. It was clear that the idea for Walker to help Elise had started somewhere. But he had been caught. He couldn't just say no.
"I have avoided it for too long. I might as well help out. But what is this about building a temporary port? That's what it says here. Why temporary? We should just make a permanent port if we don't see one when we first get to the land again."
"What about the races that live on the continent? We might be seen as invading their home if we make something permanent. That would start us off with a perfect chance at war." Walker felt like an idiot. How could he forget that the continent they were traveling was most likely full of other races with their own territories? He truly had been too tired after alchemy.
