In the end, Chai Anping still didn't get the answer when he left Sir William's room. After returning to his cabin, he temporarily put away the question mark in his mind.
Sitting on the bed, he absorbed dozens of tubes of potions one by one, most of which were already of excellent quality. He sorted them into the "storage room" in his body and carefully felt the power of these potions.
"There is also a tube of potion, Sir did not mention it..."
He then took out a golden potion from the test tube rack with complicated eyes.
"Level 5 body refining potion, golden beast."
A tube of extremely precious, permanent blessing medicine with no side effects!
Any high-level body-refining potion is priceless. The troll potion he took when he was at level 4 was a semi-finished product that he reluctantly refined. It was a suicide potion that few people dared to use.
As a more advanced person, he had only heard of the mysterious seventh-level alchemy potion that Picker had used, which gave him an almost invincible physique.
After all, this kind of potion is difficult to refine and the raw materials are scarce. It is a precious potion that only needs one bottle at a time.
Just like the bottle of "Golden Beast" in his hand at this time, the refining process requires the use of the soul that Chai Anping obtained from the Frost Spirit, but it uses the rare soul crystal of another alien beast.
This is the tip of the iceberg of the potion formula that Chai Anping spied on.
"Could it be that Jazz wants to bring me and Miss Nina together..." Chai Anping shook his head: "Impossible, he is quite happy to see me and Lux together."
Really unable to figure it out, Chai Anping had no choice but to turn his attention to the potion in his hand. Why... return it?
Isn’t that cerebral palsy?
Even with his current status, it is not necessarily easy to get a high-end, permanent-enhancing body-refining potion! Not to mention it has no side effects!
Locking the door directly behind him, he returned to the room and quickly sat cross-legged.
"Since I didn't mention any precautions, it shouldn't be a big problem."
He raised his head and drank the golden liquid, and then his whole body shook violently.
"Ho--"
Golden ripples instantly covered his whole body, and the roar of a giant marten seemed to ring in his ears. The golden shadow merged into the ripples and quickly enveloped his whole body.
Chai Anping let out a low cry, and the muscles and blood vessels all over his body were highlighted by the power of the medicine, as if they were coated with a layer of gold that was invisible to the naked eye. The pain of swelling and the joy of the soul level surged in at the same time.
Terrifying power was born in Chai Anping's body.
"Uh...ah!"
His cross-legged posture suddenly collapsed and he fell directly onto the bed, his body trembling, but soon his eyes regained clarity with the blessing of his fearless heart.
"call--"
After exhaling the breath stagnant in his lungs for a long time, the ripples on his body surface quietly disappeared, turning into dots of golden light that dissipated on his skin.
"The absorption ended successfully!"
Chai Anping sat up again and slowly clasped his hands.
The surging power instantly exploded from his strong arms.
"So strong!"
With his palms spread out and pointing like a knife, a variety of knife skills were displayed on his hands.
The palms that quickly turned into phantoms stirred up strong winds, and the muscles that curled up revealed the power contained in them.
"Physical fitness has improved dramatically."
Chai Anping said happily: "Now even a 40% copy of the alchemical magic power should be able to withstand it!"
This really helped him!
…
"Grandpa, why are you so...nice to that Gracie Shelley?" Nina frowned and said, "You even gave him the treasured golden beast."
"hehe……"
Sir William smiled when he heard this: "If it weren't for the unpredictable flaws in the seventh-level body-refining potion, the tube of [Blood of Fallen Angels] would have been handed over to him today."
"Blood of fallen angels..." Nina frowned more and more: "I'm asking you why, not how good it is to him."
"Haha! Nina!" Sir William looked at her and laughed: "Are you jealous? This kind of expression is rare."
"I'm just asking!"
Nina heard this and retorted: "Why should I be jealous of him?"
Facing Sir William's teasing eyes, she still had the unchanging expression: "You should give me a reason, otherwise I won't agree even if you want him to inherit the laboratory."
"Okay, okay." Sir William touched her head lovingly: "Of course I don't have to hide it from you, but you must remember that this matter must be kept secret from everyone."
Seeing that he promised her, Nina's serious expression softened a little.
"Gracie... he should actually be considered your brother."
"……Clam???"
The iceberg suddenly melted...
…
…
When sailing on the endless sea, it is easy to get tired of aesthetics.
After watching it for three consecutive days, Chai Anping began to lie down in the cabin and spend his days chatting with the alchemy laboratory researchers who he gradually became familiar with.
The alchemists William Raphael could bring out all had two brushes. They could basically solve Chai Anping's doubts about alchemy with concise words.
Dangerous alchemical experiments are prohibited on the Alice, but small experiments with mild reactions are still allowed.
Chai Anping has the eye of true knowledge, well... he's very clever when it comes to stealing knowledge.
It's really exciting, follow through to the end, and steal Vagra?
At this time, they were working on extracting an alchemical material, purifying the mucus from the poisonous frog's flippers!
This thing has a wide range of uses, but it is easy to be mixed with venom during extraction, and the transparent venom is difficult to identify. Once misused, it can easily lead to an alchemical accident.
Therefore, even third- and fourth-level alchemists need to pay attention to this issue.
At this time, a group of researchers in white coats were crowded around a large table, with their big buttocks twisted outwards. The alchemist in the middle was carefully dripping various solvents into the hot water.
"Be careful...be careful again..."
"Control the dose!"
Chai Anping followed and watched the big man's operation techniques attentively.
"Okay...hey."
"Gracie!"
Suddenly there was a clear shout from the cabin door, and the researcher holding the dropper squeezed all the reagents in with his hands. His face suddenly changed, and a purple and irritating smoke immediately came out.
"Fuck!"
Everyone retreated, then suddenly looked back.
"Miss Nina...?"
"What's going on again... Damn it, Miss, she's been talking like a bluff lately!" The alchemist, whose face was covered in smoke, said in a low voice with sadness and anger.
"I don't care about you, but I'm willing to admit defeat. You failed. You have to give us all a share of practice today." Everyone laughed and gave the researcher who took action some additional cuts.
However, his eyes could not help but look back and forth between Nina and Chai Anping.
Hey...that's interesting!
"Gracie, come here." She ignored the undisguised looks from her colleagues and directly waved to Chai Anping to leave with her.
"……oh."
Chai Anping had a sad face when he heard this, so he had no choice but to say goodbye to all his "brothers" and reluctantly left with Nina.
In the past three days, this iceberg beauty had no idea what was going on. She often wanted to call him over to talk or do experiments with her. Sometimes she would speak in an uncharacteristically soft voice, which scared him to the point where his legs were weak.
Chai Anping even suspected that this girl was using some kind of honey trap to kick him away from Sir William, but... thinking about it later, it probably wasn't the case.
I have never offended her, so any talk of grudges is pure nonsense.
As for the fact that he was interested in me, it was even more nonsense... I was having sex with Lux in the palace sanatorium, and this eldest sister often looked on with cold eyes.
"What are you going to do today?"
He came to Nina's room, and as expected, the alchemy equipment was already placed on the table inside.
"Today I will still test your alchemical flame."
Nina leaned on the desk to adjust the equipment and said warmly: "This flame is the key to the end of alchemy. You must pay attention to it!"
Chai Anping's alchemical flame has a very wonderful "touch", which is a bit like sensing the magical power possessed by a mage. It can help Chai Anping discover the essence of the experiment through the experimental process.
Just like the essence of chemistry is particles, all chemical reactions are based on them.
Chai Anping can explore the transformation and flow of energy between materials through it!
Nina had always hoped that he could fully utilize this ability after she knew he had this strange flame. However, this gentle tone of her voice directly caused goosebumps to appear on Chai Anping's arms.
"Let's try a more stable experimental process today so that you can observe more carefully."
Nina smiled slightly and handed over an alchemy recipe written by herself.
Chai Anping's moved heart and trembling hands finally couldn't bear it anymore after enduring it for three days:
"Miss Nina, have you been feeling unwell these past two days? Your words sound strange..."
strange?!
Nina was about to raise her eyebrows when she suddenly caught a glimpse of Chai Anping's resigned expression, and the anger that had just risen suddenly disappeared.
"You don't like it?" she whispered.
"Like...huh? Ha?!"
When Chai Anping heard this, he suddenly opened his eyes in fear, "That's not right... You, an iceberg beauty, shouldn't open your eyes like this!"
"that……"
He was speechless for a moment: "My dear... I, Miss Nina, and I are in love with Lux..."
A hint of playfulness appeared at the corner of Nina's mouth: "So?"
"Well--"
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in men." Nina laughed dryly: "Rather than you, I'm more interested in your magic power. Since you don't like this attitude, forget it.
Alright."
The corners of her mouth tightened slightly, and her expression suddenly became cold: "Come here and do the experiment!"
"Ah...ok."
The tone was obviously a curse, but Chai Anping actually had the illusion that he was finally right this time!
Damn it, aren’t you being mean?!
Speaking of Nina, as an apprentice trained by Sir William since childhood, she is now a fifth-level alchemist, and she is full of gold. Her alchemy knowledge reserve has even exceeded that of some sixth-level alchemists.
It was more than enough to teach Chai Anping.
And since he actually wanted to study his own alchemical flame, Chai Anping had already received so much care from Sir William, so he also tried his best to cooperate with Nina's scientific research work.
A child prodigy like this who grew up with alchemy books can surpass Chai Anping by hundreds of blocks in terms of "testing and development". After all, Chai Anping still has no ability to independently develop pharmaceuticals.
Tests were being carried out one by one. Nina asked Chai Anping from time to time how he felt about using the Alchemical Flame, and then started writing and drawing in a note. The efficiency was twice as high as the previous few days.
Sailing on the sea cannot be said to be stable, but Chai Anping's hands and feet are still very stable due to his kung fu. As time goes by, Nina can't help but feel a hint of appreciation in her eyes.
"Miss Nina, is it getting dark a little early today?" Chai Anping wiped his sweat and slowly put away the scorching alchemical flames and asked.
"Huh? It's time to light the lamp."
After hearing this, Nina was freed from her concentrated scholar state.
"No...it seems to be only about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, right?"
Chai Anping frowned after estimating the time, immediately put down the reagents and walked to the round window.
"Holy shit!"
Faintly seeing the thick lead clouds outside that were almost pressing down on the sea, his expression suddenly became very exciting - Damn it, Peters told you to put up a flag there!
The storm is coming!
Endless black clouds quickly enveloped the sea area where the Alice was located, and the light between heaven and earth quickly disappeared.
"I'm afraid it's not the right time to do alchemy experiments, Miss Nina." He pointed out the window with a wry smile: "Let's put away the glassware quickly to avoid breaking it later."
"What happened?"
"Boom——!"
A bolt of lightning pierced the sky outside the window, followed by a dull roar, which answered Nina's doubts.
"Dingle bell! Dingle bell!"
The Alice sounded a rapid siren, and the trampling of sailor boots could be heard in the aisles.
As the wind became more violent, the waves gradually began to surge, and the huge warship felt like a rootless leaf on the sea, being easily shaken.
"Gentlemen! Madam! Please stay in the room and don't go out!"
"Put all the fragile and valuable items back into the box! Tie them up! Avoid bumping and hurting yourself!"
"Don't worry, we will beat this storm easily!"
The firm shouts dispelled some of the fear lingering in everyone's minds.
The pouring rain fell instantly, and the surging clouds were like dark sea water pouring over everyone's heads, and dazzling lightning flashed from time to time.
The sailors had already rolled up the canvas and tied it tightly to the mast. In the captain's cabin, the first mate nervously held the rudder, avoiding the waves under the prompts of the sailors on both sides.
Peters was holding a pipe in his mouth and puffing out smoke.
The storm came so quickly and suddenly that their ship didn't even have time to escape, and was immediately caught in it.
And it’s hard to say how far a storm like this will develop in the end…
"Blessed by Mount Targon, don't let all my life's honor be buried in the sea."
If it were an empty ship, he would definitely not panic at all now, and even want to rush into the storm. But the problem is that the passengers on the ship are either rich or expensive, and he cannot afford anything if anything happens.
, he sat in the captain's cabin and wanted to slap himself twice.
Crow's mouth!
"Shine your damn eyes for me! Don't let me get the boat to the top of the waves!"
