Chapter 410 You still have 23 minutes
Seeing this scene, the surrounding students couldn't help but swallow, and then looked at Lin Tianlang with sympathy. But they were too busy taking care of themselves, so naturally they couldn't take care of Lin Tianlang.
If increasing the difficulty of refining the medicine is considered to be more spicy, and shortening the time is considered to be more spicy, then Griffin's request for Lin Sirius is definitely to increase the complexity and spice.
Although they are both fatigue-removing potions, the difference between low-level and intermediate-level ones is still quite big. Although the medicinal materials used in the two potions are similar - after all, there is an advanced relationship between the two. But once you go up a level, the control of the amount of medicinal materials and the control of the heat are completely different.
Moreover, the intermediate fatigue-removing potion is actually refined on the basis of the low-level fatigue-removing potion, which means that Lin Tianlang must first refine the low-level fatigue-removing potion, and then refine the intermediate fatigue-removing potion on this basis. .
The other students' requirements were to refine a low-level fatigue-removing potion in one hour, but Lin Tianlang's requirement was to refine an intermediate fatigue-removing potion in forty minutes. The first thing he had to do was to refine the low-level fatigue-removing potion in twenty minutes. Lao potion was refined.
This is naturally not difficult for a skilled potion master. For the same potion, the more powerful the potion master is, the shorter the refining time will be. Of course, the refining of some potions has a fixed duration. For example, Lin Sirius used Griffin's notes to refine the wolf-appearing potion last semester. One of the requirements is to boil the potion in a boiling state for an hour. There is definitely no way to shorten this time.
After all, in potions, 2*3 may equal 6, but this does not mean that if you adjust the heat variable to 3 and the time variable to 2, you will also get 3*2 equal to 6. If the heat is too strong, it is likely to lead to the emergence of other variables, such as the loss of medicinal power, evaporation of water vapor, etc., resulting in the failure of refining the medicine.
"As a reminder, the shortest time I've ever spent is twenty minutes. I don't expect you, an idiot, to be able to reach my level, but if you want to prove that you are not a fool, then do what I ask." After two days Step, Griffin turned around again and said lightly.
"..."
Lin Tianlang bit his lip and said nothing. He knew that it was useless to say anything to Griffin. The only way to defeat him was to defeat him with real success.
"Sirius...?" On the side, Shirley looked at Sirius with worry on her face. Griffin's request is too harsh. For a third-grade student, this is simply an impossible task.
The blonde girl pursed her lips and clenched her fist slightly, as if she was planning to do something.
"It's okay, Sherry, I accept this challenge." Lin Tianlang grinned and glanced at Sherry.
"I like challenges. Since Griffin likes to target me so much, then I will prove it to him!" Lin Tianlang's words were filled with fierceness.
Seeing this, Sherry didn't know what to say, so she didn't say anything. She just watched Lin Tianlang operate silently and secretly prayed for him.
The students began to take action. Although they don't need to complete the perverted task that Griffin assigned to Lin Sirius, it is also a big challenge for them to get the fatigue-removing potion within an hour.
The reason why the fatigue-removing potion was included in the teaching was largely because its refining process was friendly to newcomers. For the anti-labor potion, there are no high requirements for controlling the heat, as long as it is not too high or too low. Also, there is no particularly long cooking time.
The most challenging aspect of this potion is the weighing and mixing of the medicinal ingredients. As long as these two steps are completed, the potion will basically not fail to be refined.
But this is also the most challenging part of this potion, because as long as you are familiar enough, you can save a lot of time in weighing the medicinal ingredients and cutting them with a knife.
Especially for knife skills, many students accidentally get stuck on this step when refining potions. Because their knife skills are generally poor, they can only go as slow as possible when cutting and mixing medicinal materials, in order to reduce the number of mistakes and avoid hurting themselves.
After all, most of these students may have never even held a knife before learning potions. Even the posture of holding the knife is crooked, let alone any knife skills.
But fortunately, this is only true for ordinary students. As for Lin Tianlang, first of all, he had experience cooking at home when he lived in the human world, and his knife skills were not bad. Secondly, he was interested in potions, so he also practiced a lot of knife skills.
Now Lin Tianlang can be said to be quite confident in his knife skills. Although Griffin's requirements are harsh, he feels that it is still within the scope of the challenge and is not absolutely impossible.
Everyone started their own exercises, and the potion room suddenly became extremely busy, and there were a lot of noisy noises. Or some people are chopping medicinal materials, some are cleaning tools, and some are carefully cutting medicinal materials with small sharp knives...
Lin Tianlang was also busy with his own work, but every step he took seemed to be much more skillful than other students, and his movements were also faster. You know, the wolf-appearing potion he refined last semester was much more difficult to refine than this. He also refined it, and he will definitely be able to do the same this time.
On the stage, Griffin glanced at the students in the audience coldly with his eyes, and then showed a sneer: "Let me see what kind of strength you have."
"Chop chop chop chop..." Just like chopping vegetables, Lin Tianlang quickly cut the medicinal materials in his hands into pieces, and then continued to cut them into slightly larger dices.
Sherry's face next to her was still a little worried, and the movements of her hands couldn't help but slow down. Nearly half of the blonde girl's attention was on Lin Tianlang, a little absent-mindedly.
But Lin Tianlang was already busy now, so he didn't notice the expression of the blond girl next to him at all.
Faced with this challenge, Lin Tianlang must go all out. In fact, he himself didn't worry too much, because worrying was useless.
Soon, ten minutes passed. Lin Tianlang added the chopped medicinal materials into the crucible bit by bit, and then started to stir the liquid inside with the crucible spoon. The color of the liquid in the pot gradually became lighter, and it was also translucent and slightly thicker.
Seeing this, Lin Tianlang slowly reduced the firepower and adjusted it to medium heat, keeping the potion in a slightly boiling state. At this time, other students were still hard at work preparing the medicinal materials. For most of them, the speed of cutting the knife can be said to be as slow as a snail.
In order to ensure that after cutting and blending, the semi-processed medicinal materials can meet the needs of refining medicine (it cannot be used if the volume is too large or too small, which will affect the finished medicine), these students can say that they wish they could use a ruler to measure each time before making a cut. Make sure they are the same size.
However, some students have not even completed the weighing step until now. For example, for refreshing herbs, it is required that 10.8 grams of refreshing herbs should be used per liter of medicine. Many students measured and weighed again and again, but they could never reach the required value, and the time was wasted in this way.
Compared with others, Lin Tianlang's refining speed can be said to be unparalleled.
"Sheris, what are you thinking about?" At this time, Lin Sirius finally had time to pay attention to the blond girl next to him. He found that the girl's eyes were a little dull and couldn't help but ask.
"Ah... no, it's nothing..." Sheris came back to her senses and said quickly, but her voice was a little awkward.
After quickly weighing the required amount of medicinal materials, Shirley also started the cutting and mixing stage. But the girl was still a little out of sorts, absent-minded, and glanced at Lin Tianlang next to her from time to time.
Then the accident happened at this time.
"Oops." Sherry suddenly moaned softly. The girl frowned and bit her lip slightly, with some pain on her face.
When she raised her hand, she saw a shallow cut on the index finger of her left hand, which was oozing blood. Blood drops dripped on the cutting board bit by bit, which looked a bit scary.
"What's wrong?" Hearing Shirley's movement, Lin Tianlang immediately turned his head to check the situation, and then saw Shirley's cut left index finger. Other students also cast curious glances this way.
"It's nothing... I accidentally cut my hand..." Sherry pursed her lips, looking very embarrassed and said with a red face.
"Well, why are you so careless?" Lin Tianlang complained a little, then opened his school robe with his hands and reached into the inner pocket.
Soon, he took out a piece of bandage and cut out a section.
"Put your hand over here and I'll take care of it for you." Lin Tianlang said.
"Oh, oh..." Sherry was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and obediently stretched out her hand.
Lin Tianlang took Sherry's hand and began to put a bandage on her injured index finger to stop the bleeding. The girl's hands were soft and slippery, and felt comfortable to the touch. This made Lin Sirius' back ears turn slightly red. Although this was an accident, he was indeed holding the girl's hand now.
"What happened?" At this time, after Griffin noticed the situation here, he immediately came over. His cold eyes looked down at Lin Tianlang and Sherry, his eyes full of coldness.
"Sheris accidentally cut her hand. I'll take care of it for her a little bit." Lin Tianlang replied.
"..." Griffin narrowed his eyes and said nothing. Thanks to Sherry, if this were the case for an individual student, such as Lin Sirius himself, Griffin would probably be slapped with a "fool", "idiot" and "idiot".
"Others, what are you looking at! Continue to complete your test!!" Griffin yelled at the surrounding students, who immediately turned their heads back and continued to refine their own potions.
"A gentle reminder, you still have twenty-three minutes." After yelling at the other students, Griffin turned his attention back to Sirius Lin. After giving the latter a cold look, Griffin said a few words and returned to the podium.
