Chapter 51 Vivian's Shock, Ian's New Arrangement
Chapter 51 Vivian's Shock, Ian's New Arrangement
"What did you say?"
A hint of surprise appeared on Vivian's calm face!
Her first reaction was that Ian was joking.
Because this is simply too amazing.
Although the Glimmering Eye is a lower-level spell of the Radiant Eye, suitable for first-class wizards, it is extremely difficult to master.
Its difficulty is among the highest, even among medium-level witchcraft at the zero level.
She took four months to complete the first stage of her progress, while Victor, who was more talented than her, also took three months.
That's why she said it was enough for Ian to last for three months.
But how long has it been?
All told, it's more than a month and a half, but definitely less than two months.
Almost a month ahead of schedule?
"You're not kidding, are you?" Vivian, unusually not so calm, even asked.
Ian shook his head.
His eyes emitted a faint glow.
Upon seeing the glimmer of light, Vivian fell silent for a moment.
Each stage of the Eye of Glimmer has distinct characteristics. The first stage is characterized by emitting a faint glow, through which the flow of elements can be observed.
It's clear that Ian has indeed entered the first phase.
"But... it's only been less than two months!"
Vivian suddenly had a toothache.
"Minister, I've always had a good talent for witchcraft."
Ian then said.
Vivian then remembered that Victor seemed to have mentioned it to her as well, but she hadn't taken it seriously.
The main reason is that Ian's potion-making talent is already sufficient.
Now it seems that this magical talent is even more astonishing than his potion talent.
Aside from being a little lacking in mental talent, he really has no flaws at all!
pity!
Even so, it was enough to elevate Ian's status in her heart.
If they were merely valued before, now they are seen as potential talents who must be nurtured.
He also has a strong desire to become a pillar of her team.
At that moment, the original plan for Ian was instantly rejected.
Once she regained her composure, Vivian smiled slightly at Ian, a smile Ian rarely showed, but which she maintained for the moment.
"You've really given me a pleasant surprise. I'll have someone deliver the materials to the lab for you later. The potions department may need to prepare a large quantity of low-level potions as a reserve. As for you..."
Ian looked up, curious about how he would be arranged.
"I won't assign you a new job. Just keep making progress, as before. As for other things, I'll allow you to read in the library for ten hours each month. As for the rest, come back to me when you've reached the first stage of your guidance skills."
Vivian made the arrangements.
Ian's eyes lit up.
Doug emphasized at the meeting that the drug needed to be mass-produced, and he had assumed that he would as well.
But who knew that not only would it not be needed, but there would also be an unexpected surprise.
Ten hours of free reading per month, that's still ten magic stones.
For him, who relied entirely on financial aid for his livelihood, this was a completely unexpected surprise!
As expected, it still needs to be shown.
"Thank you, Minister!"
Ian expressed his gratitude.
"It's nothing, just a reminder that you shouldn't spread your progress on the Eye of the Glimmer to anyone else, not even Fane," Vivian advised.
Ian nodded.
That was his original intention.
Showing it off in public is pointless and will only cause unnecessary trouble. As for Faen... I'll just use it when necessary in the future.
.......
Leave the laboratory.
Ian went to the department library.
He changed the permissions, but his plan for today wasn't to read; instead, he planned to buy new potion recipes.
"Basic potion formula!"
Ian's gaze swept over the bookshelf of basic recipes; there were actually quite a few, more than a dozen.
"but......."
Ian's gaze swept past the others, settling only on the center layer, where six recipes were placed.
These are secondary hemostatic agents, secondary stamina agents, secondary healing agents, secondary sedative agents, secondary antidotes, and secondary night vision agents.
There are many potions from various schools of thought, but only these six are produced on a large scale.
If Ian wants to quickly advance to the Master level, he can only choose these potions.
"I haven't learned the secondary antidote and secondary night vision potion yet. Once I've learned them, I can start crafting advanced potions."
Ian's eyes lit up.
Secondary Energy Potion is also a type of secondary potion, and he's been eyeing it for a long time.
If he can learn it, it will greatly improve his efficiency in practicing various witchcraft.
It was extremely useful to him!
"But that's another twenty magic stones!"
Ian felt a pang of heartache.
Despite having departmental support that allows him to produce large quantities of potions, his financial situation has always been quite poor.
He had previously advanced about thirty magic stones, which he spent on renting experimental equipment and purchasing recipes.
Fortunately, the Silvermoon Lake family increased their donation to twenty magic stones.
However, practicing witchcraft also requires magic stones. For example, for the spells like Acid Splash, Layton provided some basic materials, but he still needed to test them at the testing grounds occasionally, which was also to ensure a certain level of combat strength.
And daily expenses.
Within the school, there are some common places for consumption, such as taverns and restaurants.
All things considered, twenty magic stones should be enough.
Of course, Ian also has another option.
"That means we'll start making potions and then sell them!"
Ian's eyes flickered.
Selling potions is a good option, but it will take up his time.
It's hard to say whether it's a loss or a gain!
He doesn't have many magic stones right now, but they're enough to meet his needs.
Ian shook his head, rejecting his idea.
His time is very tight right now, so earning more magic stones won't help him much. He'd rather spend a few more days at the potion shop preparing potions!
It's not good value for money!
With Vivian's support, improving the cost-effectiveness of potions is too great; perhaps he will consider it in the future.
Let's focus on leveling up his potion-making skills now!
His high-level potion-making skills allow him to handle any unexpected events with ease!
I thought about it for a while.
Ian purchased the formula for the secondary antidote.
Then, I used my access privileges to browse for an hour.
[Skill: Plant Identification (Proficiency 70/300)]
Seeing the improved potion recognition, Ian smiled with satisfaction.
I'll wait ten hours to finish reading.
This skill is at least at the expert level, and maybe it can reach the master level in a few months.
"I'm kind of looking forward to it!"
Ian felt incredibly motivated.
After leaving the laboratory, I went home and began studying the relevant information about secondary antidotes.
the next day.
The materials remain the same: twelve portions of secondary hemostatic agent and eight portions of secondary antidote.
Farn stood to one side.
Looking at this familiar scene, it felt as if I had seen it before.
In the blink of an eye.
three days later
The upgrade of the secondary antidote went very smoothly.
Ian finally deciphered the magic contained in Mickey's feather.
