Chapter 6: Old Sha's Fury, the Potion is Complete!
Chapter 6: Old Sha's Fury, the Potion is Complete!
Heart of Wood Pet Breeding Base, within the estate.
The door to the Sorcery Workshop was opened, revealing the smoky and foggy interior.
Old Sha's expression was fierce, witnessing the overwhelming stench emanating from the workshop.
He had no idea what his young master was up to.
But this process, akin to boiling shit, made Old Sha question for the first time if it was the right decision for Su Anyong to leave and entrust the pet breeding base to the young master.
Now, this was the most struggling and torn time in Old Sha's wolf life.
He feared that the young master might suffer some harm from the fumes.
If the young master fainted or, worse, died from the stench, he wouldn't be able to face Su Anyong.
But the open door of the workshop, with its overwhelming stench, was not just a matter of an irritating smell.
It was also stinging his eyes!
Wolf and dog-type beasts inherently possess the sharpest sense of smell.
As an Overlord Rank Old Sha, standing at the entrance of the Sorcery Workshop, enduring the pungent odor while watching Su Ping inside, demonstrated his immense courage and deep loyalty.
Su Ping stood on a scaffold, holding a half-meter-tall mortar.
The cooking furnace below maintained a constant high temperature of eighty degrees.
Fully geared with a gas mask and oxygen tank, Su Ping observed the rolling smoke emanating from the potion cauldron.
In that moment, Su Ping praised the technology of Azure Star.
In ancient times, without these modern tools, he would have had to brew the potions himself, and even with the knowledge of the recipe, he doubted he could produce much of the perfect 'Heart of Wood' potion.
The technological advancements of the new era were truly remarkable.
Not only had they brought about valuable mechanical beasts, but they had also made life easier for beastmaster trainers.
All the necessary resources and herbs had already been tossed into the cauldron.
The Wolf Tobacco had also been added.
The final stage was about to begin.
The next moment, amidst the thick smoke, Su Ping adjusted the temperature of the cauldron, and instantly, the temperature soared to 120 degrees.
The rapid stirring of the mortar made Su Ping's arms ache.
Fortunately, after officially becoming a beastmaster, his physical body had strengthened with his rank increase.
If it were before, Su Ping would never have been able to endure such an intense potion-making process.
The sudden surge in temperature and rapid stirring caused the dark green mucus at the bottom to bubble and gurgle.
An even more indescribably foul odor rose from within.
The gas mask blocked the smell, and the smoke gradually faded, allowing Su Ping to see the potion through the mask.
Finally, as Su Ping's arms went numb, the thick liquid took shape.
He jumped down from the scaffold and went to the cauldron's outlet, retrieving the prepared container.
At that moment, a diluted loquat syrup-like, dark green liquid slowly flowed out of the outflow valve.
Su Ping heaved a sigh of relief.
He shut off the cauldron, activated the self-filtering function, and left the workshop with the sealed potion.
Through the gas mask, Su Ping saw Old Sha's resentful expression.
"Is it that bad?"
Su Ping, realizing his mistake, removed his gas mask.
He instinctively rubbed his nose.
In less than a second, Su Ping aimed the oxygen tank at himself.
He rubbed Old Sha's even more resentful head.
"Old Sha, I know it's tough, but don't worry. After you eat this tomorrow, you'll see the benefits!"
Old Sha looked at the young master with a determined expression, then glanced at the small bottle of dark green 'Essence' that Su Ping had been brewing for hours, like boiling shit.
Old Sha's eyes betrayed his complex emotions. He never imagined that the young master, whom he had watched grow up, would one day try to poison him.
You want to feed it shit?!
And in front of it, no less!
Old Sha swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the massive wolf body emitted a crisp 'gudong' sound.
Then, before Su Ping could react, it dashed straight into the base's forest in a flash, so fast that even its shadow was barely visible.
Su Ping scratched his head, then glanced at the improved 'Heart of Wood' potion in his hand.
Could it be that exaggerated?
He belatedly realized the situation and turned back to look at the sorcery workshop, still emitting a foul odor. He couldn't help but shudder at the thought of the previous smell.
Hmm... Stay alert!
Although this thing is indeed a bit eye-stinging, it still needs to be consumed.
But not now.
According to the sorcery recipe, it needs to be boiled and cooled down to a gel state before it can be considered truly complete.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
After a busy day, Su Ping didn't bother to think much. He let the Heart of Wood potion return to room temperature and placed it in the low-temperature refrigerator before heading back to his room.
Xiao Qing was still slumbering in the Beast Mastery Space.
After becoming his bonded companion beast, Su Ping's realm could greatly benefit the beast's growth.
Xiao Qing was in a rapid growth phase.
He opened his phone, and the first thing that appeared was a message from the class group.
Su Ping clicked on it, and a message popped up:
"I heard that the class president contracted a Crimson Fang Tiger with Overlord Potential Race. Impressive! He'll probably be the one taking care of us from now on! @Zhou Shuchen"
As soon as the message was sent, another one appeared within seconds:
"It's not bad. I was lucky. Director Zhang found a way, and I paid a down payment of two million. Sigh, I'll have to start repaying the loan now. But it's worth it. After contracting the Crimson Fang Tiger for only half a month, it has already mastered Flame Strike, a talent that ordinary companion beasts can't compare to."
Although there was a hint of self-mockery, the underlying tone was one of pride.
It was none other than the class president Zhou Shuchen, whose profile picture had been changed to a crimson-red tiger cub.
It was clear that even though the world had changed, the class group was still the same, albeit with the topic now being about bonded companion beasts.
However, you have to admit, a Crimson Fang Tiger with Overlord Potential Race was indeed impressive.
A two-million down payment wasn't expensive.
But Zhou Shuchen's family was just an ordinary one, and even with Director Zhang's connections, the loan amount was still unimaginable.
This guy had quite the nerve.
Speaking of which, the class president's talent was said to be the relatively rare 'Fire Affinity,' which granted him a certain combat boost against Fire Attribute companion beasts, making it a suitable talent for a Combat Beastmaster.
No wonder this guy and his family probably emptied their pockets to loan him this Crimson Fang Tiger as his first companion beast.
"Now in the class, only Su Ping is left without a bonded companion beast, right?"
Someone suddenly asked.
"Su Ping has high standards. Before, Director Zhang kindly offered him a Scythe Giant Centipede with Overlord Potential Race, but he refused."
Zhou Shuchen's Crimson Fang Tiger profile picture moved again.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows. During school, this good class president was always polite to him, not overly close but not offensive either.
After all, although Su Ping's family wasn't a Beastmaster Second Generation, they were still somewhat well-off.
This class president was the type who knew how to get along with people, and now that they had graduated, he was acting strangely in the class group. Was his true nature being exposed?
