Upon seeing this scene, Lan Qingyou simply burrowed back into her covers, wanting to warm up.
However, unexpectedly, there wasn't much warmth left inside the covers either.
Annoyed, she simply threw off the covers, quickly got dressed, and went down to the first floor.
Checking the ti, it was slightly past four in the morning. There were still about two hours before daybreak, which ant she had only slept for around three or four hours.
"Yawn—"
Yawning and rubbing her eyes, Lan Qingyou simply decided not to sleep anymore.
She imdiately went to take a hot shower to warm up and refresh herself at the sa ti.
Afterward, she opened the chat channel on her magic desk.
"Damn it, why did it suddenly get so cold?"
"I just lit a fire in my Shelter and managed to squeeze in about two hours of sleep."
"You guys might not believe it, but after I was woken up by the cold..."
"Who has padded clothes or cotton quilts? I'm buying them at a high price!"
"I unboxed a cotton quilt before, but sadly I sold it."
"God knows why the temperature suddenly dropped."
"Damn weather."
"Good thing I chose the fireplace when I upgraded to level two. It feels so good sitting by the fireplace right now bragging with you guys."
"Bro, where's your Shelter? I'm coming to crash with you."
"Screw off."
"Sa here. Tossed and turned for half the night, finally managed to move my bed and everything else next to the fireplace. Good night everyone, sweet dreams."
"Dream my ass."
Tsk tsk.
Seeing soone ntion choosing the fireplace made Lan Qingyou smack her lips in envy.
But this couldn't be helped either.
After all, she was an alchemist. It was impossible to turn down sothing like the Alchemy Workshop when it was placed right in front of her.
Things like the terrace and the Storage Room were also necessities for alchemy.
[Dedicate your everything to the cause of alchemy!]
Lan Qingyou felt that she hadn't made the wrong choice either.
Hmm... since she was an alchemist, why didn't she research a solution?
Staring blankly at the desk, this question suddenly popped into Lan Qingyou's mind.
After all, Albert himself had said that alchemy was omnipotent.
The mont she thought of this, the mind of Lan Qingyou—who could now barely be considered a beginner alchemist—bubbled with several potion proposals.
For example, an oral potion to increase her frost resistance. She had the materials; the ingredients used for the Frost Potion could be used for this.
Or perhaps a self-heating potion similar to a hand warr that could be tucked into a pocket. The theoretical aspect could be adapted from the Luminous Potion.
dicine generally only had two forms of application.
One was oral ingestion, the other was external application.
But regardless of the thod, they were considered consumables.
The key was still which one would be more convenient to craft.
After all, she didn't want to just keep freezing like this, making herself unable to sleep.
As for which was superior and which was inferior, Lan Qingyou couldn't decide right now, so she simply got up and went to the Storage Room to take stock of her materials.
Consecutively, she reached a conclusion.
As an adult, why couldn't she just have both?
In Lan Qingyou's view, these 'daily necessity'-level items were all E-rank anyway, so she might as well just craft them all.
The oral ones could be used when going out hunting or gathering supplies.
anwhile, the external ones would be extrely practical for placing under the covers or warming the body.
Both items had their respective uses. Under these circumstances, no matter what kind of custor base there was, she could perfectly grasp them. There was no plan more perfect than this.
Lan Qingyou: "When you wake up, send these items to ."
Thus, Lan Qingyou left a ssage for Shang Chuan accompanied by a list.
However, unexpectedly, this guy hadn't slept either, or perhaps he had also been awakened by the cold.
Shang Chuan: "Is this regarding the recent temperature drop?"
Lan Qingyou: "Yes."
Shang Chuan: "Alright, I'll handle it right away. But so items might be scarce and could take so ti."
The list contained quite a few dicinal herbs that needed to be gathered from the shallow seas, such as Blood Coral and Windproof Shells.
Normally, this wouldn't be an issue.
But now, with the freezing weather, it wouldn't be easy to get a bunch of stubborn brutes to dive into the sea.
So Shang Chuan gave Lan Qingyou a preemptive heads-up.
Lan Qingyou: "The wool cos from the sheep."
Lan Qingyou naturally understood the aning behind Shang Chuan's words. However, it rely ant offering slightly higher wages; once the potions were made, selling them at a higher price would easily recoup the costs, wouldn't it?
So she wasn't worried about this aspect.
After all, once these things were made, the first person to enjoy them would be herself.
It could even be said that she was planning to craft cold resistance potions precisely so she could get a good night's sleep.
After receiving the materials Shang Chuan sent over, Lan Qingyou began attempting to develop the potions.
Of course.
This developnt was primarily focused on the 'hand warr' potion.
The antifreeze potion didn't require much trouble since it was originally recorded in [Potioneering].
Moreover, she could use it as paynt for those 'gatherers' willing to dive into the sea right now.
After all, having this thing first would significantly enhance their gathering efficiency.
[Apprentice Antifreeze Potion (E)]
[Function: Increases frost resistance by 10 points, lasting 10 minutes.]
[Description: A standard apprentice potion. It can provide you with a certain amount of frost resistance, but please rember that it is not omnipotent; you must learn to act within your capabilities.]
On the very first day, Lan Qingyou crafted a full thousand vials of them.
The apprentice level added 10 points of frost resistance, while the crude level only added 7 points.
However, Lan Qingyou tested it and found that even the crude-level antifreeze potion was actually sufficient for use; the duration was just slightly shorter.
A single vial would only last for several up to ten minutes.
For Lan Qingyou, who had never gathered materials in the sea, she didn't know whether this was long or short.
Thinking this way, she asked Shang Chuan about it.
According to Shang Chuan, since those materials were all in the shallow water zones anyway, ten minutes was completely enough for those gatherers to operate.
Therefore, after 1:00 PM, Lan Qingyou handed the crafted items over to Shang Chuan.
And Shang Chuan also sent Lan Qingyou an old-fashioned Kerosene Stove along with a dozen liters of Kerosene.
Shang Chuan: "I just acquired this. It has a 4.1-liter fuel tank. Theoretically, on a full tank, it can burn continuously for about 15 hours, satisfying the heating needs of a 11 to 17 square ter space. I believe this should be enough for you."
Although Lan Qingyou hadn't said anything about sleeping, Shang Chuan could roughly guess the situation.
Shang Chuan: "However, Kerosene is sowhat scarce. The Kerosene I gave you is all I have. I'll look into acquiring more later."
Shang Chuan wasn't lying about this.
Originally, he had acquired this item for his own use.
But considering that Lan Qingyou needed it more, he simply sent it over to her.
After all, only by providing the researcher with a good working environnt could he reap greater profits.
Besides, he still had a charcoal stove with a chimney he could use; it would just be a little colder, that's all.
Upon reading this ssage, Lan Qingyou didn't think much of it.
After all, things like Kerosene didn't exist in this world; it was highly likely they were all unboxed from treasure chests.
But since people could dig up things like coal mines and iron ore.
Then petroleum should also exist in this world, right?
She just didn't know if alchemy could extract it.
