No one would have guessed that all of Baron Morin's treasures were in his hands.
Renn knew that Quinn couldn't find anything, and the person behind the scenes would definitely not give up.
It was expected that Quinn would come to him again to ask about the situation.
However, this also means that the crisis is getting closer.
The man who bought the murder behind the scenes has not given up looking for the treasure. If he can't find it, he will definitely think of other ways. The threat posed by a person with great energy is not something that a Pixis can compare to.
Therefore, Renne is very clear.
He must get the antidote as soon as possible and leave the "Weasel Phantom Thieves"!
Forcing Pisis to reveal the formula is only the first step, the key is... to get the finished antidote.
... ..
Quinn, the leader's amazing assist, allowed things to develop according to Renne's script.
Shortly after the inquiry, the leader sent someone to deliver a lot of [Thousand-Year-Old Mummy Skull Powder]. This is a finished material plundered in a certain robbery. You don’t need to grind and purify the mummy skull yourself, you can use it as soon as you have it.
The materials were delivered, and Pisis had no more excuses.
The old man was still immersed in the joy of getting the golden formula. Although he was unhappy about being plotted, he had to prepare the antidote.
As for the entire process of refining the medicine, Renn obediently watched from the sidelines.
Pixis did not deliberately avoid anything. After all, although the detoxification configuration of [Zombie Potion] is much simpler than genetic potion, it is not something that ordinary potion apprentices can refine.
Just take a look, what can you see
The technique, melting time, temperature control...these details are the real difficulty.
This is also the biggest difference between a formal potion master and an apprentice.
Without a year and a half of practical training, a pharmacy apprentice would not even be able to remember the medicinal properties of the ingredients, let alone actually prepare the finished medicine
I think back then, he was quite talented in Pisis, and he had learned the basics at the Royal Academy for more than a year before the teacher allowed him to start preparing finished medicines.
... ..
Sorting, purification, distillation, heating... all in one go.
Every step of dispensing the medicine is extremely smooth. This is the standard of an experienced two-star potion master!
"When configuring a potion, remember to be 'stable but careful'. The purification and extraction of materials in the early stage determines the final efficacy of the potion, and the reaction, fusion, and cooling in the later stage are the key to the success rate of the potion... Do not reach the level of a one-star magician. , I think the success rate of this potion is almost zero..."
Pixis didn't shy away from Ren's glaring gaze at all. Instead, he was uttering a lot of professional terminology while preparing the potion.
These words also include a lot of advanced potion knowledge. Not to mention potion apprentices, even one-star potion masters may not be able to fully understand it.
Naturally, this old guy didn't intend to teach Renne Pharmacy. In addition to showing off his skills, he was more of a mockery of his overestimation of his abilities.
Haha... After reading the formula and the process of refining the medicine, do you know how to learn pharmacy
Just you, a guy who has only been an apprentice for a few days
Hum, naive, stupid!
The sarcasm at the corner of the old guy's mouth was like a needle pricking his eyes, but Ren's expression remained normal.
"Oh... Teacher, what you said is too profound. You are really a great potion master!"
"Oh my god, teacher, your technique is so clever..."
"..."
While he was flattering in a duplicitous manner, he listened intently to Pixis's explanation.
He was naturally confused by these profound pharmacy contents. He had read every professional vocabulary in the old man's mouth in books, but when they were put together, he had no idea what they meant.
In other words, if you know Arabic numerals, can you solve advanced equations
Potions is one of the most complex subjects in the world.
Although he can't understand it, he can "memorize" it!
At this moment, "Zhi Nao" has recorded the entire dispensing process.
The order of material placement, heating temperature, reaction time, concentration...even the angle and frequency at which Pixis shook the test tube...all the details were recorded one by one.
Watching the recipe before was just Lane's first "insurance".
He was afraid that Pisis would do something with the antidote, but now he was relieved to see him dispensing the medicine on the spot.
At least in his opinion, the old man was following the procedures in the formula without resorting to any tricks.
"Are we finally going to get the antidote..."
Renn was vaguely looking forward to it. As long as he got the antidote, he could really plan his next escape with peace of mind.
... .
The antidote for [Zombie Potion] is not too complicated, especially for an experienced two-star potion master.
About half an hour later, Pisis prepared the purple potion.
"This is the antidote. After you take it, the toxins in your body will be completely eliminated. From now on, just study pharmacy with me..."
"is teacher."
"..."
The two haven't completely broken up yet, and the drama must continue.
Ren didn't think much, took the potion and drank it.
But not long after, his expectant mood immediately cooled down.
Because the state of the "intelligent brain" projected on the retina shows that the toxins in his body have not been completely eliminated, but only prolonged the burst time!
[Warning: Unknown toxin erosion, expected to be fatal in 1094 days, 23 hours and 44 minutes.]
"What's going on? Didn't you agree to remove the toxin? How come... there is also a toxin reminder!"
Renn looked at the countdown displayed on the system and felt a thump in his heart.
Is it possible that the old guy Pisis was playing tricks on the antidote
No, the entire dispensing process is based on the formula. When did he do it
Besides, this old guy has no motive.
The poison used to happen once a month, but now it takes three years. What’s the point
If you engage in such a small trick, are you not afraid that you will fall out and tell the leader Quinn the secret if you find out
This kind of stupid move definitely doesn't look like the trick of this old sinister.
Is it possible that there is something else hidden
... ..
This sudden change disrupted Ren's plan.
The antidote I obtained with all my heart was actually a "suspended medicine" that could delay the onset of toxicity? !
Pixis looked at Ren's expression, which was slightly different, and wondered: "What's wrong?"
Ren's expression calmed down, and he pretended to be ignorant and tried: "Teacher, is this really the antidote to [Zombie Potion]? Why do I feel that there are no special changes after taking it?"
If he didn't have a "intelligent brain", he really wouldn't be able to find out there was something wrong with the antidote.
"Haha... What other changes do you want?"
Pixis raised his eyebrows.
Being suspected also made him a little dissatisfied, and said: "Now that you have awakened to the extraordinary, you should feel that the coldness in your body has disappeared, right? That is a sign that the poison has been removed."
He thought it was Ren's habitual suspicion and fear of trouble, so he explained a little more: "If you don't believe it, you can ask other old people in the group. They all take the same antidote..."
"Teacher, you misunderstood. I didn't mean anything else. I just felt that the surprise came a little too suddenly..."
Renn looked at Pisis as if he was lying, as if he really didn't know that the antidote only temporarily controlled the toxicity.
Although it cannot be ruled out that this old guy deliberately deceived and acted brilliantly.
But after thinking about it carefully, Ren felt that if this old guy wanted to control himself, he would definitely have a more sophisticated method, and there was no need to play dirty tricks on the antidote.
But it is a fact that the toxicity has not been eliminated. What is going on
... ..
The period of onset of poison is three years
Huh... It seems that Pixis first came to the "Weasel Phantom Thieves" three years ago
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Ren's mind.
Then connect the many clues.
It’s scary to think about it!
If everyone takes this antidote, it means that the [Zombie Potion] in the bodies of absolutely most people in the entire "Weasel Phantom Thieves" has not been released, but has been temporarily frozen, including those old members!
Now that the three-year period is about to expire, the first batch of people who took the antidote will die suddenly one after another, and things will definitely no longer be hidden.
Faintly, Ren felt that this matter was not that simple, and there was an air of conspiracy everywhere.
But... what does this Pixis want to do? !
