In the Pharmacy Room on the ninth floor of the Gray Tower.
Green flames slowly heated the crucible.
The liquid in the crucible began to boil gradually. White steam rose and bubbles appeared.
Levi patiently followed the refinement method of the Sandman Potion and carried out all the procedures in an orderly manner.
Bright Heart Pollen, Root of Crohn, Soul Returning Grass, Sleeping Beauty Leaf... He processed the ingredients one after another and put them into the crucible. Levi recited the corresponding Pharmacy incantation as he refined them.
Zawa... Ludo... Makka... Bakka...
As the complicated syllables were blurted out, the pot of turbid medicinal soup began to glow with a green light.
Beads of sweat had already appeared on Levis forehead. It seemed that refining a first-circle potion was even more strenuous than fighting a huge battle with Emperor Mu.
A potion like the Sandman Potion was also relatively difficult in the first circle. It took a long time to refine and the refinement process was also quite cumbersome. Just the Pharmacy incantations involved were more than ten. To refine such a potion, there were a total of eight stages. Every stage was very important. There could not be any mistakes. Once there was a mistake, all the materials would be wasted and they would have to start all over again.
Fortunately, Levi had already trained his pharmaceutical skills and had Marlenes notes.
Therefore, although it was his first time refining, Levis refinement process was quite smooth.
An hour later.
[Pharmacy Proficiency +128]
Levi looked at the green potion at the bottom of the crucible. It emitted an intoxicating fragrance that made one want to fall asleep.
Haha, I succeeded on the first try. This is a good start.
Levi took out the potion bottle he had prepared in advance and put it away.
He obtained a portion of the Sandman Potion.
He rested for a while and drank some red potions to replenish his spiritual force and stamina.
Refining potions consumed a lot of spiritual force.
Therefore, starting from the third -circle potion, one had to have the spiritual force of a Third-Circle Wizard or above to refine it. Otherwise, it was impossible to successfully refine it.
Levi wasnt afraid of fatigue if he had to rely on brute force. However, his spiritual force was average.
With his current mental strength level as a high-level apprentice wizard, he could at most refine the Sandman Potion twice or thrice a day.
For the second refinement, Levi believed that he had followed the entire process and steps of the Pharmacy without making any mistakes. It was no different from the first refinement. However, inexplicably, the second refinement failed.
[Pharmacy Proficiency +65]
Sigh, why did I fail? There goes my 50 Aether Stones. I didnt make a mistake. Levi sat there and recovered his spiritual force and physical strength. He looked at the failed medicinal dregs in the crucible and began to doubt his life.
In the blink of an eye, 50 Aether Stones were gone. His heart ached so much that he could not breathe.
Levi could not figure it out no matter how hard he thought about it. He could only drink the bottle of Sandman Potion to calm himself down. A fragrance rushed into his mouth, nose, and throat.
Gulp.
Levi drained his glass.
He quickly began to meditate.
He first finished circulating the Earth Meditation Art and realized that it was indeed as described. The Proficiency increase of the Earth Meditation Art was more than twice the original!
A bottle of Sandman Potion could last for about a week. During this period, there would be a continuous weakening process. On the first day, the effect would be the best, and then it would weaken continuously. On the seventh day, the effect would be very weak. In general, Levis efficiency in cultivating the Meditation Art would be about 1.5 times higher than when he was not taking drugs.
The next day, Levi was in high spirits and continued to refine.
He was not afraid of failure. It was very difficult for a First-Circle Pharmacist to achieve 100% success. He felt that the reason why he failed yesterday was firstly because he was not proficient enough, and secondly, because his mental strength was insufficient.
After all, this was a first-circle potion, and he was only a high-level apprentice wizard. If his mental strength was high enough, the success rate of refining this potion should be much higher. Or rather, if his pharmaceutical skills were cultivated to level 8, he should be able to achieve the same effect.
In short, the success rate of the Pharmacy and the quality of the potion were mainly related to the following three points: the quality of the raw materials, the level of spiritual force, and whether the Pharmacy skill was superb enough.
The quality of the ingredients was not something Levi could decide. After all, it was already good enough that he could find the ingredients for the Sandman Potion. Levi was not qualified to be picky.
His spiritual force was nothing more than to quickly improve his wizard cultivation. As for his Pharmacy Proficiency, he needed to continuously refine potions and summarize his experience to increase it.
After understanding all of this, Levi was no longer bothered by the failure rate. As long as the final success rate was more than 50%, he would be satisfied.
In the following days, Levi stayed at home to refine alchemy and cultivate.
On the new year of the Holy Brilliance Calendar in 1024.
Levi took pills to cultivate as he concocted Pharmacy. Finally, he finished refining all the Sandman Potions.
Levis Level 7 Pharmacy Proficiency soared again. After reaching half, it slowly decreased.
In the end, the success rate of the 60 sets of ingredients was about 70%.
The success rate far exceeded Levis expectations. As his Pharmacy Proficiency increased, and with his constant summary and trial and error, the consumption rate finally decreased. Moreover, the quality of the Sandman
Potion had also improved slightly. On the first day after taking the potion, Levis meditation efficiency was actually more than three times that of normal. In the end, the overall efficiency of this potion was about 1.8 times, which was higher than the effect mentioned in the prescription..
