CHAPTER 355: CHAPTER 355: DRINKING THE MAGIC ELIXIR

After Baiyu obtained the Seeking Knowledge Flower, he didn’t hesitate and went straight back to school.

After all, things haven’t been peaceful outside lately; it’s best to avoid trouble where possible. Don’t wander around, and trouble won’t come knocking.

"Oh, oh, is it Book Bag Grass? I’ll ask around. If our family has it, it shouldn’t be a problem."

"Hmm, keep an eye out for me. I can buy it at a premium over market price."

After explaining to Ning Qian, Baiyu hung up the phone.

Among the Four Great Merchant Associations in Zenith City.

Ning Qian’s father, Ning Fugui, is the leader of a major association. If Book Bag Grass is in stock among the Four Great Merchant Associations, Baiyu should be able to get it.

With Book Bag Grass, the materials for the Fanatical Scholar Magic Elixir Recipe are almost complete.

Although Spiritual Water is expensive.

However, it’s not lacking; it can be exchanged at the school.

Back at the dorm.

Baiyu continued to study the manuscript and materials on Mechanical Science given by Yi Xian, but he was cautious and carefully verified the knowledge on them.

After all.

He was afraid that the matter of "Whispers of the Night" might happen again.

Moreover, after such an incident.

He found no reason to question the other party.

Luckily.

The contents inside the two precise boxes were genuine, without any of those peculiar things.

"Magic Energy and Mechanical Science complement each other."

"The Mechanic is considered a special profession; their Blood Qi isn’t used for combat but for nurturing and cultivating machinery..."

Under the lamplight, Baiyu closely read the advanced knowledge of Mechanical Science.

He had already mastered the basics of mechanical manufacturing, assembly, construction, etc. Now, he was upskilling on the cultivation and combat of the Mechanic.

Namely, how to use their possessed machinery in battle.

Of course.

The most basic thing for a Mechanic is to have a storage tool.

This blocks most people who wish to enter this field.

Many who study the way of mechanics.

Will essentially become researchers and logistics personnel.

The true Mechanics used for battle will condense Blood Energy within their bodies, which is a variant of Blood Qi. It’s akin to using Blood Qi to simulate the operation of Magic Energy internally and using it to control machinery.

But Blood Energy is one aspect.

Another aspect, Mechanic—you want to battle, you would need a reserve of machinery, right?

Mechanics that can be assembled with Blood Energy must be nurtured daily by the Mechanic using Blood Energy. Ordinary machinery, if used in battles, would consume a large amount of Blood Energy.

The unit of measurement for evaluating the strength of a Mechanic.

Is "Energy Level."

It’s essentially no different from a Martial Artist’s Blood Qi.

Originally Blood Energy is just a variant of Martial Artist’s Blood Qi.

"My current Blood Energy is very low; at most, I can only control some simple scouting mechanica. Only by raising Blood Energy can I experience what a true Mechanic feels like."

Baiyu thought to himself.

Blood Energy is a variant of Blood Qi.

Fortunately, his current Blood Qi had already reached 9999 calories, and he couldn’t break through this barrier in a short time.

Taking advantage of this phase.

Transform Blood Qi into Blood Energy and cultivate Blood Energy.

This can maximize self-improvement.

After thinking for a while, Baiyu rushed to the school library and spent three hundred GPA points to exchange for a copy of the "Blood Power Cultivation Manual."

This thing is reputed to be quite famous.

It’s left by a former Tier Three Mechanic. If converted into Martial Artist’s Level, that would be Grandmaster Martial Artist, capable of dominating regions.

However, the cultivation from this book is extremely difficult.

Except for the initial Mechanic, none of the later cultivators managed to train something noteworthy, thus making it so cheap.

Of course.

This is also the cheapest Blood Energy cultivation method Baiyu could find.

So to speak.

The cultivation cost of a Mechanic is comparable to that of Extraordinary, and not attainable without substantial wealth.

Back at the dormitory.

Baiyu continued to immerse himself in the study of the new book.

This book primarily explains how Blood Qi is transformed into Blood Energy and how Blood Energy nurtures and controls machinery.

There is a lot of learning in it.

Furthermore, its Blood Energy cultivation method differs slightly from other Blood Energy cultivation methods.

For two consecutive days.

Baiyu was immersed in the ocean of knowledge; ever since his Spiritual Power rose to the eight hundred calorie level, his learning capabilities and memory have noticeably improved again.

Knock, knock, knock!

Just as Baiyu finished reading the entire "Blood Power Cultivation Manual," the apartment door suddenly sounded.

Upon opening the door.

A man wearing the united uniform of the Four Great Merchant Associations stood with a big wooden box, grinningly said: "Are you Mr. Baiyu? Here’s your delivery."

Delivery?

Baiyu’s heart stirred, could it be that Ning Qian’s items had already arrived?

Upon signing for the delivery, Baiyu returned directly to the room and unpacked the package.

Inside were three separated small boxes, each with a large-headed green plant lying inside.

Book Bag Grass!

The final material for creating the Fanatical Scholar.

Baiyu immediately closed the room.

Then the scout robots from Mechanical Realm and the nurtured Blood Worm were all released to monitor all aspects within the room.

Then.

He took out a row of beakers and crucibles from the apartment compartment and began grinding the herbs.

The preparation of the Magic Elixir requires very meticulous operation, and cannot be disturbed by the Outer World; adding or subtracting a bit of material results in drastically different outcomes.

Moreover.

The magic elixir Baiyu is now preparing is also of a non-disclosure type.

Thus, he had already ramped up the monitoring to its maximum, so if anyone approaches, it can be detected immediately.

Book Bag Grass and Seeking Knowledge Flower were ground into the same beaker.

The liquid of green and white began intertwining.

As the flame heated, the beaker issued sizzling sounds as the two-colored gases continuously spewed out.

"Heating to ninety degrees, then pour in the Spiritual Water."

Baiyu took a bottle of Spiritual Water from the side and began pouring it into the beaker.

The originally scorched flowers and plants once again emitted vitality upon contact with the Spiritual Water.

This scene of transformation from decay to wonder is extremely fascinating.

Seizing this opportunity.

Baiyu put the forbidden book, "Whispers of the Night," into the flame.

The black book cover, upon contact with the flame, issued a sputtering burning sound as wisps of black smoke arose.

Soon.

The entire book turned into wisps of black ash.

Baiyu carefully collected the ashes and then placed this handful of black ash into the boiling Spiritual Water.

Glug-glug...

The Spiritual Water suddenly boiled vigorously.

Black, green, and white gases entangled within the beaker, converging into a nebulous color, soon causing the liquid inside the beaker to start tumultuously boiling.

"According to the instructions, heating like this for just one minute is sufficient."

Baiyu used tweezers to lift the beaker.

The liquid inside was constantly churning.

Various low whispers causing dizziness transmitted from within, and from time to time, there were shadows of darkness flashing inside the beaker.

This is the finished Magic Elixir.

Fanatical Scholar!

"This thing..."

Baiyu carefully examined the liquid boiling inside the beaker; even away from the flame, it continued to boil relentlessly.

It hadn’t calmed down at all.

He could feel the searing heat through the beaker.

Although with Baiyu’s current physique, even swallowing sulfuric acid posed no problem, the continuously whispering and growling Magic Elixir before him made it a bit difficult to ingest.

Do you want power?.jpg

After pondering for a while, Baiyu’s gaze steadied, he firmly grasped the beaker, and directly drained the entire bottle of Magic Elixir.

Immediately.

He felt his whole body ignited.
