“This is the dicine that could prolong life?” Sui Xiong looked at the bottle of pink dicine curiously, “It looks very normal.”

On the desk before him, there was a small bottle that was made of crystal. It was almost the length of a normal adult’s index finger. The bottle mouth was about the thickness of a thumb, the hexagram body of the bottle was gradually expanded, and ford a container with not much of a volu. Estimating by the looks of it, the bottle probably wouldn’t be more than fifty ml.

In the small bottle, it was almost filled with pink dicine. The dicine was clear, without impurities in it. Slling it carefully, one could sll a hint of blood among the sll of green grass. This was the dicine that was developed by Miss Wendy, Sli Alchemy Master, after almost ten years of research. The life-prolonging dicine.

It could delay the body aging speed of the user. One would be in a situation whereby aging wouldn’t happen for almost ten years ti. But, once the potency of the dicine expired, the body would develop strong resistance to the dicine. If one were to consu it, the effect would drop trendously. Until the third ti one drinks it, it would basically have zero effect.

In order to complete this type of dicine, Wendy rejected almost all jobs to fully concentrate on the research. The alchemy master, Tyrian’s only disciples, the Sli young girl that inherited all Tyrian’s skills, spent countless ti and effort, and went through countless tis of failure, until she finally completed it.

“The main content was the blood of a huge snake that was cultivated with flesh and blood as a culture dium. Hence, the bloody sll is inevitable.” Wendy was a little tired when she spoke, “But I added the flavoring essence extracted from green grass, and diluted the bloody sll, which shouldn’t affect the taste.”

Sui Xiong nodded and asked curiously, “What is the supplentary?”

“Too many of them, if I were to introduce, one by one, I need at least half a day’s ti. Are you interested?”

“Er... Not interested.”

“Then, forget it.” Wendy’s body wriggled and beca a ball of sli. She then lied on the soft cushion next to the table, “I need to rest for a few days. This is a sample. The first batch of product can only be produced after ten days.”

“Huh? Need to wait for another ten days?” Sui Xiong was confused, “Why do we need to wait for so long?”

“Because in the production, there is a step that takes a longer ti.” Wendy’s speaking tone carried weariness, “About... twenty days... can... produce.... one batch....”

As she spoke, she started snoring.

Sui Xiong didn’t disturb the alchemy master that continued to work for countless hours, but looked at the bottle of dicine with interest on his own. But, honestly speaking, the dicine was very common, regardless of the appearance, sll or even taste...

A dicine that could only prolong twelve to thirteen years of life for a commoner, and wouldn’t be much of use to Gods. The dicine was actually the third improvised version. Reminiscing on the previous four versions, made people deeply feel the difficulty of the research.

The first version was completed during the opening of the the park, but it had severe side effects. Although it could prolong life trendously, it would cause a tendency to beastify among the users. The few rabbits used for experint, not only did their hair fall out after drinking the dicine, they even grew snake scales.

That kind of dicine of course couldn’t be comrcialised, it didn’t even have any practicality. Hence, they were destroyed entirely, and only research data remained.

The second version of dicine was completed during the ti where Sui Xiong was dragging the world into the Abyss. It didn’t have much of a side effect, but its disadvantage was also that it “didn’t have much of a side effect”. The dication could delay aging for about five years and could be overlapped. At least from the experint on animals, there seed to be unlimited overlapping numbers.

The few rabbits that were used for experint were almost tortured with “Aging spell”. According to calculation, they had at least lost a hundred years or above of their lives, but they were not affected at all, and were still jumping around actively by then.

In other words, as long as there was enough supply of the dicine, it could allow the users enjoy eternal youth and never to worry about dying of old age.

Sui Xiong got the news and told Wendy to produce a batch of the dicine and store them using a magic thod, along with the related information. He also warned Wendy to not reveal any news about it to the others.

The dicine was quite useful then. For instance, the diplomat of finance for Void Mask church, Rhode took the dicine. Relying on the dicine, he who was originally turning into old age from middle age and whose body was going downhill, avoided aging and was then working energetically.

Then, it was the third version of the dicine, which was completed soti before Wor turned into god. It was basically similar to the first version. Every ti one takes the dicine, it could delay age for two to three years, and it could be ten for about three tis in total.

Honestly speaking, the third version almost fulfilled all the requirents. Yet Sui Xiong felt that, if it was only two to three years, there wasn’t much of an impact and so it wouldn’t kick start on the market quickly. So, he told Wendy to continue to develop the next version.

Hence the fourth version...

Sui Xiong looked at it carefully and read through the information provided by Wendy thoroughly. He wanted to depend on his knowledge of traverser to operate on a strategically advantageous position, to make better improvisation. But, before he ca here, he wasn’t a biology nor chemistry student. So, after looking at the research information for a few days, besides “the hell, these look very impressive”, he didn’t have much harvest.

But, he morized the formula. If he were to follow suit, he should also be able to make so dicine that prolongs life. But, if he had learned alchemist and he could develop so dicine... Hehe, let’s talk about sothing else instead...

After a few days, Wendy who had now had enough sleep, finally woke up. She ate a pile of bread that was almost the size of her body and drank an amount of drinks that was almost twice her body size. Then, she burped and turned back into her human figure energetically.

Sui Xiong looked her up and down confusedly.

“Why? Do I look weird?” Wendy asked.

“No, nothing’s wrong, that’s why I’m confused.” Sui Xiong answered, “You ate so much earlier, why didn’t your body shape change?”

He scratched his head with his tentacles, and looked pensive, “Maybe... you can consider yourself as a research material and invent so sort of losing weight program...”

“Can I earn?” Wendy asked.

Sui Xiong thought carefully and shook his head.

The people in this world were not rich in general, so there was hardly any fatties. Generally speaking, fat represented wealth, and if the rich wanted to lose weight, it was fairly easy. Just look for a reliable spellcaster and cast a “weight loss spell”.

The magic was invented by the Goddess of Love and Beauty, when she was still a commoner. It could efficiently and a human’s body shape... Maybe there wasn’t any need to talk about it greatly, in actual fact, it was a only a magic used specifically for losing weight.

The interdiate magic wasn’t cheap, but it was very efficient. A person that really needed to lose weight, probably wouldn’t accept a losing weight spell with no money. But a person that couldn’t even enjoy a losing weight spell, probably wouldn’t even have the spare ti to think about the problem of losing weight. Plus, in this world, there were many places that treat fat as beauty.

It wasn’t like these people valued beauty differently, as though fat n and won were more attractive, but they thought fat was a symbol of wealth and wealth is a symbol of status. That’s why when a fat person was walking down the street, one would naturally receive everyone’s envious and respectful eyeing.

Just like the idiom said, “Temperant, dress, conversation could be faked but only fats needed to be achieved by eating.”

To sell dicine for losing weight in this world, he reckoned there was not much “money future”. Wendy was a miser. If dicine for losing weight couldn’t make money, she would threw away the thought far, far away.

In the dining hall where it could contain more than thousand people, there were creepy looking pipes and water tanks that ford a complicated shape. Walking inside, Sui Xiong felt that he seed to transverse into the world of Frankenstein and he felt like he was visiting the laboratory where “Frankenstein” was made.

In front of the sealed crystal tank at the ending in the hall, he saw that the liquid above was gradually clarified. The impurities within were slowly dissolved. It was just that the speed of dissolving was saddening...

“Until they were fully dissolved and add in stabiliser, the batch of dicine will be done.” Wendy gazed steadily at the dicine that was changing in a steadily slow speed with rapt attention.

Sui Xiong looked at her and suddenly felt a little guilty. To let a little lady work overti, am I guilty of running a blood and sweat factory?

Although Wendy was originally a sli, who belonged to magic creature, even on earth, he reckoned she wouldn’t even have human rights. Er, maybe in Belgium. But Sui Xiong had been judgental according to wisdom instead of bloodline. Wendy had the sa wisdom as a human, she was even wiser than most of the humans, her moral values ain’t bad either. So, he naturally treated sli that was good at alchemy skill as a human teenage girl.

If it was on earth, and Wendy were to post a status on Weibo, “My boss made work overti continuously for half a month. I couldn’t take it anymore so I closed my eyes and slept for a few days”. There must be a big bunch of people filled with righteous indignation who would condemn Sui Xiong in both speech and writing.

If she posted along with a selfie, the comnt that criticized Sui Xiong and shared would number probably more than ten thousand, even the police authority might be involved with a lodged police report to investigate who the brutal Sui Xiong was, to see if he should be arrested and sentenced for punishnt.

He thought and he couldn’t help but laugh.

“Why?” Wendy heard his laughter and shook her head suspiciously, “What’s wrong with my face again? Or is there anything funny in the room?”

“No, I just recalled an interesting thing.” Sui Xiong said, “Do you need to cast a magic spell to complete the dicine earlier?”

Wendy thought and nodded vigorously, as she couldn’t wait to see the situation after the dicine entered the market!
