Chapter 47: The Side Effects of Wolf Tobacco and the Value of the Laboratory! (Part 2)
Chapter 47: The Side Effects of Wolf Tobacco and the Value of the Laboratory! (Part 2)
At the bottom of the catalog, beneath the recorded logs, a new entry appeared:
【Discovered the effects and applications of Wolf Tobacco on Forest Wolves. Forest Wolf Catalog experience points +100. Fully understand and explore the specific effects of Wolf Tobacco to earn additional experience points.】
Indeed!
An unimaginable joy shone in Su Ping's eyes as he stared intently at the Forest Wolf that had just completed its enlightenment.
However, Su Ping's eyebrows soon furrowed slightly.
As the light faded, the tiny Forest Wolf appeared before Su Ping.
The True Eye also quickly analyzed the little wolf's condition:
【Forest Wolf (Wild - Weakened)】
【Current Level: Common Seventh Rank】
【Race Potential: Elite Tenth Rank】
【Skills: Sunlight Absorption (Beginner), Rapid Growth (Beginner), Vine Strangle (Proficient), Self-Healing (Beginner), Wood Heart (Beginner)】
Indeed, according to the feedback from the True Eye, the little wolf seemed to have no changes or differences. Even the Wood Heart skill had already appeared on this little guy.
The fragrance of grass and wood emanating from it also fully confirmed this.
The weakened state wasn't much of an issue.
However, the biggest problem was that, in order to ensure the experiment wouldn't be affected, Su Ping had specifically chosen two young wolves of the same rank to cultivate together.
And the rank of these two wolves was Common Eighth Rank! In other words, although Wolf Tobacco further enhanced the effect of Wood Heart on Forest Wolves, it caused their rank to decrease.
What kind of principle was this? Su Ping frowned, but he couldn't figure it out for a moment. At this moment, he truly felt the meaning of the saying, "You never know what you've got until it's gone."
Nevertheless, he quickly marked the little wolf and recorded this research finding in his diary as documentation.
After that, Su Ping didn't waste any time. He directly took out the scythe he had stored in his Beast Space and started harvesting the large patch of Wolf Tobacco.
Previously, Su Ping had been uncertain, so he hadn't conducted more complex experiments.
But now it seemed that the effect of Wolf Tobacco was indeed mysterious beyond his imagination.
It was necessary to directly extract the essence and begin live experiments.
However, although Su Ping had refining equipment at home, he still lacked some things. Not to mention anything else, the cauldron he used for brewing potions was sufficient, but it was obviously too troublesome to use for extracting Wolf Tobacco. The time and labor costs were too high.
There were also some instruments for observation and recording.
Thinking of this, Su Ping, who had just harvested a large patch of Wolf Tobacco, felt a bit overwhelmed.
There were many sales channels for some materials and resources in the real world, but he didn't know where to buy these precision instruments that only breeders used.
Fortunately, Su Ping now had some connections.
"Hey, Su Ping? It's rare for you to call me. Did you complete the bet with Sun?"
Perhaps no one in all of Linzhou understood this aspect better than Vice President Liu.
As Vice President Liu's hearty laughter echoed on the other end, Su Ping played it cool for a moment:
"You'll know in a couple of days, Old Liu. I want to ask, where can I buy equipment for extracting material essence and instruments for observing material cultivation? I have some new ideas I want to try out."
"Haha, I guessed as much, Su Ping. Do you know what's the most important thing for a breeder?"
Perhaps because Su Ping had kept him guessing, Vice President Liu didn't answer directly but instead asked a question.
"What?" Su Ping politely inquired.
"Of course, it's the laboratory! With your abilities, you can come to our Breeder Association and apply to rent a separate laboratory for your use. If you want to purchase the equipment yourself, that's possible too. Our Breeder Association sells them."
Old Liu spoke up, "There are three types of equipment for extracting material essence at the Breeder Association, each with its own strengths and effects. As for the other equipment you need, I'll send it directly to you. Once you've reviewed it, you can place the order."
Liu Deputy Chairman sounded very straightforward, "When you've finished placing the order, give me the order number, and I'll use my authority to give you the highest discount."
Su Ping smiled, "Thank you, I'll visit you when I have time!"
"I'll adjust my schedule," Liu Deputy Chairman's cheerful voice came through, causing Su Ping to hesitate in his response.
He pursed his lips, about to speak when he heard laughter from the other end of the call.
"Hahaha, I was just joking with you, little one. But if you have time at the end of the month, you can come over. I'll be teaching at the Breeder Association, and only Wolf Companion Beast Breeders are eligible to attend."
"I'm not sure you'll find it useful and helpful. However, even the most talented breeders shouldn't rely solely on their own methods."
This time, Su Ping's eyes lit up.
Although he had the help of the Divine Beast Codex, it was like being given the answer to a difficult Olympiad math problem. He had the answer, and if he encountered the same problem again, he could provide the solution without hesitation.
The error-free version is available on 69shu! 6=9+shu_ba.
However, the thought process behind the solution, the ability to apply it to other problems, and the opportunity to learn from it were not his.
With this opportunity, Su Ping couldn't help but feel excited. He hung up the phone and opened the website that Old Liu had sent, a procurement site accessible only to internal members of the Breeder Association.
As he looked at it, Su Ping was stunned.
He began to understand why Old Liu had suggested applying to rent a laboratory at the Breeder Association when he had asked about purchasing equipment.
The items listed were incredibly outrageous:
【High-Molecular Automation Core Compression Extractor: An integrated machine that can compress and extract the essence of all types of resources except elemental resources, according to its own needs, and then concentrate...】
There was a lot of messy information, but Su Ping could only understand a small portion of it. All he could see was a large machine resembling a computer screen attached to a toilet and washing machine, with a string of zeros following it.
At that moment, Su Ping fell into deep thought.
Old Liu had mentioned giving him a discount within his authority. How big was this discount? Could he reduce three hundred million to one million? Well, ten million would do too!
It was clear that in a dream, Su Ping's idea might come true.
Unfortunately, this was reality.
Moreover, this was just the cost of one machine, not to mention the additional expenses for its use and the purchase of other machines.
Suddenly, Su Ping, who had just felt that his money was sufficient, looked at the countless Wolf Tobacco filling his narrow Beast Space and shouted to the sky:
"I need to work! I need to earn money! I need to build my own laboratory!"
