Chapter 114 Strangeness and Departure

"Strength?" Carly murmured softly, but then because she was thinking too hard, she accidentally hit her head against a pillar.

Lucian turned his head slightly, unable to bear to look at Carly's embarrassing look.

The scene inside Blackrock City can only be considered average, or even a little shabby, but the interior of Earl Blackrock's family castle is gorgeously decorated and full of aristocratic luxury.

Not to mention, in order to entertain a "big shot" like Lucian, Count Arsene of Blackrock has tried his best.

The silver wine glass engraved with the family crest was filled with fragrant fruit wine. On the dining table, there were a variety of exquisite foods. Behind him was a rigorously trained and beautiful maid who was always ready to take orders and greet him.

Carly held the silver knife and fork, looking a little dazed.

The last time she was tested to have wizard talent, she and several other new recruits were treated to a banquet by Blackrock Count Arsen here. She followed the third-level wizard apprentice who tested the children's qualifications in Blackrock City and left Blackrock City in a daze.

But now, he had returned to Blackrock City with Mentor Lucian, still sitting in this banquet hall, but his strength was already stronger than that of the third-level wizard apprentice who had come here to recruit new blood.

It was just that Earl Blackstone, who had encouraged him and others with a smile to keep moving forward on the path of wizards, did not recognize his former manor servant.

Thinking of this, Carly couldn't help but look at the pot-bellied middle-aged noble who was talking to Lucian in a flattering manner.

The latter noticed Carly's gaze, turned around, and nodded at Carly in a slightly flattering manner.

But when Yasen noticed Carly's face, he was stunned for a moment, then became a little stunned and a little unbelievable.

"Lady...Lady Carly?" Count Yasen looked at Carly with some disbelief, but soon, the smile on his face became brighter and more attentive.

……

"Teacher Lucian, let's go back to the academy as soon as possible." The next morning, Carly found Lucian.

After the initial filter of nostalgia, Carly suddenly felt that everything in Black Rock City became a little strange.

The city lord who used to be so high and mighty now became a little fawning and attentive in front of her. The maids of the same age who used to be able to talk to her were now cautious. Some people who had scolded her or thought they had offended her were even more trembling with fear...

Even Grandpa Simon, who had given her preserved fruits at the beginning, became a little strange and cautious when talking to her after learning that she was a third-level wizard apprentice. She could not go back to the Black Stone City in the past, whether it was good memories or bad memories.

These changes made Carly feel a little confused, as if they were constantly urging her to escape quickly.

Lucian said nothing, but just rubbed Carly's little head.

"Are you okay?" Lucian asked softly in the carriage, looking at Carly who was stroking a black stone pendant.

"I'm fine, Master Lucian!" Carly raised her little head and suddenly removed her witchcraft disguise. Her original human appearance changed quickly, and her long silver hair fluttered slightly in the wind.

But after saying this, Carly couldn't help but quietly turned back to look at Black Rock City which was already some distance away.

In the sunlight, the dark walls of Black Stone City seemed to be stained with a layer of golden light.

"Goodbye, Blackrock Ridge." Carly muttered silently in her heart, then she sat up straight, took out her notebook, and continued to study the formula of improved physical strength potion.

Lucian looked at Carly, who was concentrating on her. He didn't know why, but he felt that Carly seemed to have changed compared to before.

In the blink of an eye, it was three days later.

At night, in the temporary campsite.

Carly took out a slightly softened blood fruit from the pottery jar.

After fermentation, the color of the poisonous area of ​​the blood fruit became much lighter, and the fruit even had a faint aroma of wine.

"After the blood fruit is fermented, the skin changes from hard to soft, so it is not suitable to use the excision method to remove the toxins. However, the blending method can be used to adjust the toxins that have reduced toxicity after fermentation..."

Carly quickly cut the softened blood fruit into small pieces. The fruit flesh, which was originally as hard as stone, had become somewhat soft after a special fermentation catalyzed by witchcraft, and it was handled a bit like semi-dehydrated cheese.

Soon, these fruit pieces that seemed to be able to squeeze out juice if squeezed hard were thrown by Carly into the crucible that was bubbling with bubbles. While the glass rod was stirring, her mental power also penetrated into the medicine liquid along the glass rod and began to make more refined adjustments.

As the color of the potion continued to change, a subtle sweet smell appeared in the hot steam coming out of the crucible.

Carly sniffed gently.

She had a feeling that her attempt might have been successful. [Your student Carly has successfully improved the physical potion and is integrating the system solution...]

[The recipe for {Stamina Potion·Large} has been updated. Congratulations to your student Carly for obtaining 5 talent points in pharmacy. Congratulations to you for obtaining 1 talent point in pharmacy.]

When Lucian saw this system message, he was slightly stunned.

But soon, he received the updated formula of the stamina potion in his mind, and at the same time, he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

This feeling is hard to describe, but when Lucian was trying to understand the potion formula, he felt that his understanding seemed to have improved slightly compared to before.

"It seems... Carly has come up with something extraordinary." Lucian opened his eyes and looked at Carly, who had just moved the crucible away from the alchemy array. The route that Carly had researched herself seemed to be different from the route after the system upgrade, but it was equally excellent.

On the other side, after Carly put the finished medicine into a test tube and carefully preserved it, her body shook slightly. She blinked in confusion, then looked down at the masterpiece she had just prepared.

Various pharmacy knowledge and some information about magical plants unconsciously emerged in Carly's mind, and there seemed to be a flash of inspiration in her mind.

The new medicine I developed seems to have flaws?
This was a somewhat abrupt thought that suddenly popped up in Carly's mind.

However, she suppressed the thought in her mind and then tested the effect of the new potion.

"The energy concentration is 132% of the original stamina potion, and the configuration cost has increased by 8%. After comprehensive consideration, the overall effect of the potion has been significantly improved."

Carly smiled, and then the smile turned into an uncontrollable cheer.

“Teacher Lucian, I made it!”

"Finished it?!!" Gagarin opened his eyes in surprise when he heard Carly's cheer, and temporarily shifted his attention away from the exercise book in front of him.

Although he had noticed that Carly would diligently try to complete the "homework" assigned to her by Lucian every night when they were camping, Gagarin really didn't expect that Carly could actually succeed.

He looked at Carly who was cheering happily at this moment, and couldn't help but look at the thick exercise book placed in front of him.

"Knowledge is quantity..." Gagarin murmured a famous saying he heard from Carly, and felt that his whole body was filled with a mysterious power.

brush brush...

He quickly calculated the formulas on the draft paper, and felt that these boring knowledge seemed to become attractive all of a sudden.

Through these exercises, even if I can't match Carly's progress, my basic knowledge will be more solid, and my strength should also improve significantly, right? Gagarin encouraged himself and felt his motivation rise all of a sudden.

"Very good, really very good." Lucian looked at Carly, who had a confident smile on her face, and this time he did not hesitate to praise her.

"I hadn't thought of fermentation. My previous idea was to crush the original blood fruit directly and use the ashes of the Ketlan water grass and Milan flower dew to neutralize the toxins... But judging from the results, your idea is simpler and more creative."

Carly was a little embarrassed by Lucian's praise. She put her hands behind her back and tilted her head slightly to one side, as if something in the distance was attracting her attention. But when she heard Lucian's explanation, her eyes lit up.

"Teacher Lucian, I feel that our ideas can be combined to make the potion more effective!" Carly raised her head and looked at Lucian, her eyes sparkling.

Lucian was stumped, feeling that what he was about to say had been interrupted by Carly, which made him blink his eyes.

And Carly seemed to realize this as she covered her mouth and giggled.

“You…” Lucian pointed at Carly, but eventually withdrew his hand slowly with some helplessness. Then Lucian thought about it and directly told Carly the formula of the improved [Stamina Potion·Large].

Carly was smiling at first, but after hearing such a complete and clear formula from Lucian, the smile on her face gradually faded and turned into admiration.

“Teacher Lucian… I feel like I may be a little clever in the field of potions, but your talent in this area is definitely much greater than mine.” Carly looked at Lucian with an extremely serious tone.

After all, Lucian just said that he had not thought of the idea of ​​fermenting the blood fruit, but in the blink of an eye, Lucian had completely integrated his ideas into his. If it were Carly herself, she felt that she would not be able to do this in a short time, and at least she would need to try for a while.

Lucian could only smile and then said something encouraging. "You will be even better at potions in the future."

Carly didn't respond, but her eyes became determined. "I will definitely work harder, Mentor Lucian."

Lucian looked at Carly, who seemed to be completely ignited at this moment, and always felt that this little girl seemed to have some wonderful misunderstandings about him.
