Chapter 306: Chapter 193: Potion Ingredients Created Out of Thin Air (6k)
"Wuwuwu, how can you say that about my potion!"
Bai Yi eagerly took out the potion she had crafted in the afternoon and boasted about it in the channel.
It was her very first Tier Six potion!
A special product tailored specifically for her Spiritual Power recovery!
She had put in a tremendous effort just to fabricate that entry effective for all forms of energy!
More than half of her afternoon was spent on it.
As for the terrifying negative effects that followed, they weren’t initially so outrageous; the current state was partly due to her own "outstanding performance."
The other reason was the doubling effect of the amplification, gains and losses, which ultimately culminated in the potion having a negative usage threshold only manageable at Tier Six.
In this world’s power system, the focus is mainly on body mutations and superpowers, with the former emphasizing Constitution and the latter Spirit.
Even if specializing in one path, the other attribute wouldn’t fare too poorly; at least not dropping below a hundred at Tier Six to trigger a negative judgment.
But for Tier Five, without specific enhancements in these two aspects, it’s a bit overwhelming.
"But that doesn’t mean you can directly ask how much for this poison!
I, I have my dignity too..."
However, when many low-tier Lords presented genuine poisons of various ranks, Bai Yi hesitated to speak.
Her potion seemed, probably, maybe, indeed scarier than those poisons...
Moreover, there were actually people in the channel asking how to purchase it, treating it as a powerful poison.
One Lord, specialized in poisons, even proposed to conduct detailed testing.
Judging by the responses from other Lords, they seemed to hold that person’s research in poison in high regard.
Even Bai Yi herself began to wonder if she should switch careers, stop making amplification potions, and directly modify poisons...
But no matter what, for now, Bai Yi did have a potion, and its recovery ability met the requirement, even far exceeding expectations.
Considering the limited time in the evening, plus needing to reserve some time before resting to use the afternoon and evening’s accumulated Spiritual Power to breakthrough for her Hero Units to reach Tier Six through superpower utilization.
Bai Yi didn’t jump into researching gene entries but continued pondering over the potion somewhat defiantly, with today’s achievement, that recovery potion, as the target.
However, she didn’t attempt to lower the potion’s negative effects further.
On the contrary, Bai Yi really followed those Lords’ suggestions, trying to craft a poison with maximized negative effects.
Yet the final result left her a bit speechless...
[Magic Poison (Tier Five/Gold): Conducts a judgment on the target, triggering instant death if either Constitution or Spirit attribute is below 20. If below 50, it drains 20% of the target’s Magic Power Value cap per second and inflicts the same amount of damage for 6 seconds.
If both are over 100, it drains 1% of the target’s Magic Power Value cap per second and deals equal damage, increasing All Element damage by 100% and granting 15% Magic Penetration for 30 minutes.]
"Ah, this..."
The panel information successfully rendered Bai Yi speechless.
It’s hard to ignore; even though she really formulated it as a poison,
and it employed the mystical touch of her unique skill set, resulting in sheer chaos, and created a stable potion.
But inexplicably, a positive effect emerged, even though she hadn’t considered that aspect at all.
She hadn’t even added related materials, yet somehow this effect appeared out of nowhere...
Just like those inexplicably emerging negative effects...
Whether in terms of positive or negative effects, the potion indeed reached a Tier Five Gold level unambiguously.
"Abnormal..."
For the first time, Bai Yi became curious about her own medicine-refining methods.
As a Tier Six [Pharmacist], she understood well that any effect a potion has must have a basis, not something that arises out of thin air.
For instance, her initial Magic Power recovery potion utilized a tree fruit already capable of restoring Magic Power, maximizing the utility of the fruit.
This is also the essence of most potions, or one could say, the essence of alchemy—maximizing the potential of an item!
Even the negative effects in her past potions resulted from materials she added; strictly speaking, it wasn’t creation out of thin air.
It was merely the outcome of her peculiar techniques and additional ingredients.
After all, the vast majority of negative effects stem from this, knowledge inscribed upon her transition into her role.
Thus, she never doubted such aspects before.
But this time, though completely absent of materials related to positive effects, she ultimately crafted a powerful berserk potion...
Although the cost was significant, indeed reaching fatal levels, the compensatory amplification was equally outrageous — enticing even for someone at Tier Six.
In her situation, based on her acquired knowledge, there was only one possibility.
It was that among the various mixes of materials in her concoctions, coincidental combinations and techniques accidentally fused some effective components.
This is how most of the potion formulas she obtained upon advancement came about.
—Finding a special ratio from some fortunate failures, achieving peculiar effects with seemingly unrelated materials in the end.
