Chapter 22: Senior Sister, I want to learn medicine.
The sudden episode did not affect Pei Ze's arrangements.
After separating from everyone in Xingling Society, he went straight to Medicine Garden No. 8.
Routinely inspect the plants in the responsible area and water all the plants that need watering.
After finishing his work, he came to the hut where Yin Xue usually stayed and knocked lightly on the door.
Not long after, the door creaked open, revealing Yin Xue's delicate and beautiful face.
When she saw it was Pei Ze, a smile appeared on Yin Xue's face.
"It's a junior. What do you want from me?"
"I have something to ask my senior."
Yin Xue nodded slightly, stepped aside, and said, "Come in first."
Entering the hut, Pei Ze immediately smelled a mixture of It has a spicy, sweet smell, mixed with a smell similar to disinfectant, but fortunately it's not unpleasant.
There was a huge table in the center, occupying almost half of the room. On it were large and small glass bottles, test tubes, beakers, and other tools that Pei Ze could not recognize.
Obviously, this is where Yin Xue usually makes potions.
As Pei Ze had guessed before, she was indeed a pharmacist, or a pharmacy apprentice.
Seeing Pei Ze looking at the utensils on the experimental table curiously, Yin Xue smiled and said, "Are you interested in refining potions? How about after you are promoted to a second-level wizard apprentice?" Halfway through the words, Yin Xue suddenly realized that something was wrong
. He stared at Pei Ze for a moment, with a look of surprise on his face.
"Have you been promoted to the second level wizard apprentice?"
Pei Ze nodded: "You just made the breakthrough yesterday."
Yin Xue took a deep look at him and said with emotion: "Junior, you really surprise me every time."
As someone who has been there before , she naturally understood what Pei Ze's promotion to the second-level wizard apprentice at this time meant.
What surprised her even more was that Pei Ze's family was not well off - otherwise he would not have needed to take on the task of taking care of the medicine garden - and without sufficient resources to support him, he was still able to break through so quickly. His outstanding qualifications were simply amazing. People are amazed!
Pei Ze didn't know Yin Xue's inner sigh and went straight to the topic: "Sister, I came here to ask you about magic pets." "I
plan to contract a magic pet, but I don't know which animal to choose. , do you have any good suggestions?"
Yin Xue came to her senses, pursed her lips and said, "It mainly depends on what requirements you have for your magic pet."
"Different types of animals have different abilities after being transformed into magic pets. They are all the same."
"For example, a cat will usually awaken the ability to sneak after being transformed into a familiar. It moves quietly and is a good helper as a scout. If it is cultivated well, it can also awaken the ability to sneak in the shadows." "Toad, transformed
into Demon pets usually awaken the ability to poison."
"Bats have the ability to locate sound waves in a wide range."
"Frogs usually grow in size."
Yin Xue gave examples of more than ten animals in one breath.
"Of course, this is just a normal situation. Depending on the physical differences of the contract partners and the level of the wizard's mental power, the ability of the magic pet to finally awaken will also be different. In rare cases, very rare abilities may even be awakened."
"In a sense, contracting a familiar is actually a kind of gambling, and the outcome depends largely on personal luck."
Pei Ze nodded to understand.
To put it simply, the process of transforming a familiar is actually a bit like drawing cards in a mobile game. You will never know whether the one you drew is SSR or NR until the end.
Suddenly, Pei Ze thought of the flock of crows he saw in the morning, and asked, "Senior sister, what abilities do crows have when they are transformed into demon pets?" "
Crows?"
Yin Xue stretched out her long, white index finger and tapped her chin lightly. The movements are inexplicably playful and cute.
"I don't recommend that you choose crows as your magic pet."
Pei Ze was startled: "Why?"
"Because the common awakening ability of crows is to control a group of crows."
"To control a group of crows?" Pei Ze was stunned, and he had a feeling. With a bad premonition, "This group of crows refers to ordinary crows?"
Yin Xue nodded with a smile.
It was really
the corner of Pei Ze's mouth that twitched.
This ability seems to be of little use, at least for wizards.
You can't expect a group of ordinary crows to play any role in the wizard's battle, right?
"Doesn't the Crow Demon Pet have other more useful abilities?"
"That's not true."
Pei Ze perked up and asked quickly: "What ability is it?" "
For example, creating mist, releasing attacks similar to spell missiles, Shadow sneaking, etc., wizards collectively refer to these as spell-like abilities." "A
crow that has awakened spell-like abilities can be regarded as a very excellent familiar, and its potential is also very high." "
However, the crow's familiar has awakened spell-like abilities . The chance of having the ability is very low, not even one in a thousand." "
Considering that each time a contracted magic pet consumes the upper limit of one's own spiritual power, generally no wizard is willing to gamble, and very few people choose crows as their magic pets. "
Pei Ze was a little disappointed when he heard this.
In this way, Crow is really not a good choice.
At this time, Yin Xue flipped her wrist, and a book instantly appeared in her palm.
On the dark leather cover, numerous animals and stars surround four bold black characters.
"Encyclopedia of Demonic Pets"!
"Don't be too anxious about your demon pet. Go back and read this book carefully. It's not too late to learn more about this before making a decision." Yin Xue handed the book to Pei Ze.
"Thank you, senior." Pei Ze did not hesitate to be polite and accepted it generously.
After putting away the books, Pei Ze glanced at the utensils on the experimental table and asked seriously: "Senior sister, if I want to learn to make potions, what do I need to do?" Yin Xue thought for a while, and with a stroke of her finger, it's not far away
. A piece of paper floated out of thin air on the desk and landed in her palm.
There was a little silver light on her fingertips, and she wrote and scratched on the paper.
After a moment, she handed the paper to Pei Ze.
"This is a list of knowledge you need to know to learn how to make potions. You'd better understand and master them first before trying to make potions."
Pei Ze took the paper and looked at it. It was filled with densely packed book titles, including Elementary Potion Science, medicinal botany, advanced identification of extraordinary materials, pharmaceutical identification, etc., visual inspection shows that he has at least fifty subjects of knowledge.
Pei Ze was secretly speechless.
No wonder pharmacists are so rare.
You have to learn so much knowledge just to get started. How amazing is the breadth and depth of knowledge that you need to be exposed to later?
"In addition to learning a lot of knowledge to make pharmaceuticals, it also consumes a lot of resources. Every qualified pharmacist can be said to be made from a huge amount of resources. You have to be mentally prepared for this." Pei Ze nodded solemnly
.
As we all know, each of the wizard's four major side jobs is a gold-swallowing black hole.
Among them, refining pharmaceuticals is the most expensive.
The resources consumed by a failed attempt to refine a potion are often worth dozens or hundreds of gold coins.
A novice potion apprentice often needs to fail more than ten times before he can refine a bottle of qualified potion.
Even if you are a formal pharmacist, your success rate in refining medicines is not very high.
More than 40% is considered to be the best among pharmacists at the same level.
This has also led to high pharmaceutical prices.
However, Pei Ze is different. He has an omniscient eye. He can analyze the formula of the medicine and accurately grasp the medicinal ingredients, thus greatly reducing errors in the process of refining the medicine and improving the refining efficiency.
