Chapter 72: 72. Change Your Mindset
An alcohol beverage rich in vitamins, that’s for a Demon Hunter.
For ordinary people, this potion might not be lethal, but dizziness is inevitable.
The key issue really lies in the concentration.
Lann picked up a dried honeysuckle petal, examining it with a frown.
The active ingredients in raw materials are not evenly distributed on the leaves.
According to Bordeaux’s alchemy notes, the dicinal value of this honeysuckle concentrates mainly at the end of the petals away from the stem.
At about one-fifth of the petal’s base, its dicinal value becos quite sparse.
This uneven distribution occurs on just one petal of a flower.
Let alone flowers growing in different regions.
While concocting finished products, alchemists mostly rely on their experience and judgnt to adjust quantities.
To ensure the potion’s active ingredients stay within a usable concentration.
In the holand, traditional Chinese dicine mostly uses molecular technology to completely extract dicinal components from herbs.
The compressed tablets are nearly pure dicinal substances!
However, in the environnt Lann finds himself in, discussing molecular technology seems a bit unrealistic.
After a brief contemplation, Lann made a decision.
"ntos, if we abandon our existing chemical experintal approach and follow the local alchemical thinking, how quickly can we learn?"
"It’s estimated that within about ten hours of practice, we will fully master the preparation of [Swallow]."
During these ten hours, most of the ti will be spent forming an experience of the active content of the herbs, inputting it into the database.
Alchemists need to spend most of their lifeti honing their proficiency in identifying herbs.
Because they must use their ordinary human senses to perceive everything about the herbs, forming mory.
And if you don’t practice for a day, your hands beco unfamiliar, three days without practice and even your mind goes rusty.
But to Lann and ntos, they can even analyze each petal on a flower as an independent sample.
A large bag of dried petals contains more sample size than a lifeti of an alchemist’s potion-making experience!
After all, they even have to make a potion to know if their hands are precise.
Isn’t it about pursuing experience? Is this amount of experience enough?
Moreover, ntos’s comprehensive recording ability prevents Lann from experiencing any technical decline.
This strategy is similar to training AI to play Go.
It’s not about discussing thought processes or thinking thods, it’s about piling up sample size.
"Let’s go in this direction, ntos. If we master more effective thods in the future, we might switch back to precise chemistry, but for now, we need to quickly prepare potions for use."
"New orders received, transitioning auxiliary work mode... completed. Please begin identifying herbs, increasing data capacity."
From Alia’s perspective, Lann put down the experintal equipnt in his hand.
Instead, he placed the large package of raw materials on the table, poured out all the petals, leaves, and stems.
Then he began to lean over them, observing, lightly slling, and licking with the tip of his tongue one by one.
The extraordinary senses of a Demon Hunter are a great help in experints too.
As more herb data is input, the proficiency in [Alchemy] is visibly rising!
The practice of preparing [Swallow] requires ten hours, and on the plan list, Lann also needs to learn [White Rafad], which instantly restores a large amount of health, and the most important antidote [Enhanced White Honey].
But this doesn’t require thirty hours because many of the raw materials for magic potions overlap. With experience in herbs, ntos estimates all three potions could be stably made in about eighteen to nineteen hours.
The combined use of these three potions is Lann’s "dical kit" for his surgery preparation.
He agreed with Margaret and the Airetusa Academy and also wanted to slaughter the Head Eater and their buyers behind them.
The power of that buyer, just by looking at their secret port and over a dozen posts, is evident.
To silently deploy resources and manpower into Velen’s remote hills in a dieval period with poor transportation, the opponent is certainly more formidable than Viserad, the lord of Velen!
And what’s the level of Viserad, the lord of a province?
He has nearly a thousand lower-ranking soldiers under him!
This isn’t sothing a Demon Hunter can handle with a few magic potions, without a doubt...
He needs even more unstoppable power!
"Alia, my experintal approach has changed a bit, you don’t need to scrub test tubes here. Go rest, just rember to bring
food."
The lively little girl pouted and reluctantly walked outside.
She actually found watching Lann busy here pretty interesting, even not less entertaining than her favorite swordplay.
After all, it’s magic, sothing only ntioned in bedti stories by her parents, which Alia held a great deal of curiosity towards.
But having beco an attendant, her upbringing also made her realize she should follow her "adult" instructions.
"But I’m a girl, although acknowledged as an attendant, I’m still a girl! In Westeros, where are there female attendants, so being a bit exceptional must be alright, right!"
The girl, exiting the alchemy classroom door, didn’t obediently go back to rest, but instead leaned at the glass opening of the door, eagerly looking inside.
In this corridor, Airetusa’s female warlock students occasionally passed by.
These female warlock recruits already had so grace of their predecessors... in their fiery clothing and bold personalities.
As they passed by, they always looked at Alia with a subtle glance.
This made the little girl feel a bit shy.
Even though she often resisted her mother’s "lady education
