Chapter 36: Chapter 36: The Alchemist's Secret
Now that he had the medicinal materials and the alchemy furnace, Victor no longer hesitated and began to prepare for refining pills.
However, the rental house was small and the furnace was huge and difficult to operate, so he had to choose another place to refine it.
Taking advantage of the night, Victor came to the balcony, jumped lightly, soared into the air, and flew quickly towards the suburbs of the city.
At present, it was the only place suitable for refining pills.
Perhaps because he was too focused on what was happening in front of him, Victor didn't notice that a pair of beautiful blue eyes on the balcony next door witnessed everything.
"That was... Victor just now?"
Alisa covered her lips with her hands and widened her eyes in disbelief.
She rubbed her eyes and looked up again, but the figure had already disappeared into the night sky.
"No, no, no, I must be seeing things."
Although she said this, Alisa turned around and quickly left the room and went to the next room.
She rang the doorbell and waited quietly, with anticipation and nervousness in her eyes.
However, half a minute passed and the door remained closed.
She pressed it twice more in disbelief.
But the result remained the same.
This was enough to show that Victor wasn't in the room at the moment.
He wasn't in the room at this late hour.
This forced Alisa to believe that what she had just seen was real!
After confirming the answer, the only thing left in Alisa's heart was curiosity.
Who exactly was Mr. Victor?
Let's turn to the other side.
After a minute of flying, Victor finally arrived at an unnamed hill outside the suburbs.
"The environment here is good, let's choose this place."
After setting up a formation around him to distort the light and cover up the flames, Victor began his first attempt at refining pills.
The first was the simplest hemostatic powder.
Victor threw the medicinal materials into the furnace one by one, and then used spiritual fire to heat the furnace.
Time passed minute by minute, and soon a faint fragrance wafted out from the alchemy furnace.
After another two minutes, Victor felt that it was about time, so he retracted the flame.
"Congeal!"
With a light shout, three dark green pills smaller than a little fingernail flew out of the furnace.
"Only three?"
Victor felt a little surprised.
He had clearly used five medicinal materials, but only three pills were made.
"It seems that I need to practice more."
Although he remembered all the steps for refining pills, he lacked experience in pill refining.
Eyes: I got it!
Brain: I learned it too!
Hands: No, I can't!
After taking back the pills, Victor began to refine pills for the second time.
Then the third time, the fourth time...
Victor didn't rest the whole night and spent the entire night refining pills.
Fortunately, the spiritual power of qi cultivation practitioners was higher than that of ordinary people.
Even if you didn't sleep for ten days or half a month, it wouldn't have any impact.
And this night's efforts weren't in vain.
Victor had already mastered the methods of refining more than ten kinds of low-level pills!
And he could achieve a 95% pill production rate!
"Huh~ Time to go back."
Victor stood up and stretched, and his whole body made crackling sounds like frying beans.
After taking back the alchemy furnace and dispersing the formation, Victor soared into the air and flew towards the city.
It was just dawn at this time and there were basically no people on the streets, so Victor wasn't worried about being seen.
After returning home, Victor opened the chat group immediately.
[Victor: My family, I've refined so many pills, but we can't use them all up! We can't use them all up! (Picture)]
[Lumine: Oh my god, there are so many! There's even a Yellow Dragon Pill among them!]
[Belle: As expected of a master at the fifth level of Qi Training, I only refined seven hemostatic powders and four Qi-boosting pills in one night.]
[Shinobu: Someone who just refined five hemostatic powders quietly passed by.]
[Kiana: I haven't even started practicing yet.]
[Stelle: Brother Cheng, can you share some?]
[Victor: No problem.]
[Stelle: Tsk, stingy.]
[Lumine: Stelle, can't you make them yourself? Why do you need others to give them to you?]
[Stelle: Who told him to be showing off here?]
[Victor: (picking nose.jpg)]
[Victor: No more chatting, bye.]
After saying this, Victor closed the chat group.
Because the doorbell rang.
He was wondering who it could be so early?
After using spiritual sense to check, he found that it was Alisa from next door.
"Good morning, Miss Kujo. It's so early... Hmm? Didn't you sleep last night?"
At this time, Alisa had faint dark circles under her eyes. Although they weren't obvious, Victor still noticed them.
"Well, I had some insomnia last night."
Was it possible to avoid insomnia?
As soon as she closed her eyes, her mind was filled with the image of Victor soaring into the sky, causing her to be unable to sleep the whole night.
After a lot of effort, she heard some noise coming from the next room. Knowing that Victor had returned, she ran over immediately to find out what was going on.
"Come in."
Victor also saw that Alisa was worried, so he invited her into the house.
"What do you want from me so early?"
Alisa hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Victor, you... you're not an ordinary person, right?"
Victor was stunned. He never expected that Alisa would ask this question.
"What did you find?"
"Isn't it true?"
Although Victor didn't give a direct answer, when she saw his expression, Alisa already knew the answer.
She couldn't help feeling a little excited.
"Actually, I happened to see you flying out when I was breathing fresh air on the balcony last night."
Hearing this, Victor couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Aren't you supposed to be sleeping so late?"
If he remembered correctly, it was almost twelve o'clock in the morning, right?
Don't girls always say that going to bed early and getting up early is good for the skin?
"Now that you've discovered it, there's no need for me to hide it."
"Yes, I'm not an ordinary person."
As if to make his words more truthful, Victor immediately performed levitation for Alisa.
Seeing Victor's feet off the ground and floating in the air again, Alisa still showed a shocked expression.
"So cool!"
Alisa widened her eyes, covered her mouth, and her face was slightly flushed.
"This is my secret, please keep it secret for me, Miss Kujo."
Victor returned to the ground and said softly.
Alisa patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, I'll keep it a secret!"
"Also, just call me Alisa."
Victor nodded, took out a pill from the system space and handed it to Alisa "Here, this is for you, just as a thank you gift for promising to keep it a secret for me."
"What's this?"
Alisa looked at the pill in her hand curiously.
It was icy cool and had a rich fragrance.
The most important thing was that she only needed to smell it once, and she felt that the fatigue accumulated throughout the night disappeared instantly!
It was amazing.
Victor explained: "This is a kind of pill called the Longevity Pill. As the name suggests, this pill can increase your lifespan. One pill can increase your lifespan by up to ten years!"
