Warhammer: Black Emperor

Chapter 150 "Pharmacist"

In the third level of the real space of the "Land of Disorder", Ningluo stared at the three-sided dice in front of him.

His black eyes turned deep, and after a moment, strands of black threads appeared in his pupils, connecting him to the dice of prophecy.

[Initial connection established.]
While Ningluo was thinking, he took off the power glove on his left hand, placed it here, and continued to establish the connection.

The Primarch returned to the Raft Spider and cut off a shelled limb.

This limb has no spiritual residue and is not suitable for potion making.

He took out the small storage device specially made by the Lord of the Forge from his backpack, activated the stasis field, and placed the tissue in it.

After returning to the real world, Nimrod received a report from the guards that no traces of other giant spiders were found around the sewage pool.

The Primarch then sent a message to Adams and Cech Rosicky to make arrangements before returning.

One stellar hour later, he saw two Shadows of Order in the tower that had belonged to the Chief Iron Lord not long ago.

"The Fourth Regiment is temporarily responsible for guarding the six star systems of the Orb Alliance. Lord Death, I hope you can establish a new order here."

"An order similar to that of Vostronia, but adapted to local conditions."

Nimrod continued, recalling the future when the House of Hemar would establish a powerful regime that would rule Necromunda for a long time.

"Although Necromunda's population is a hundred times greater than Vostronia's, as long as you place yourself in the position of arbitration and support the rise of a family, you can establish a system of order."

"Father, I will carry out your command."

Adams, as always, with a stern expression, accepted Nimrod's orders.

"Your other duty is to excavate the ruins and master your newly acquired power. In this regard, you must work closely with the Master of the Forge."

Seeing the two Shadows of Order nod at the same time, the Primarch picked up the storage device from under his feet.

"Rosicky, in addition to studying the portal and the technology left behind by the Orb Alliance, I also want you to study the biological tissues within."

The Master of the Forge took the arm-sized box with both hands and asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, where does it come from?"

"The most precious raft spider among the giant spiders."

"I want you to find a way to kill the giant spider without damaging its silk glands, fangs, eyes, or legs."

Nimrod was unsure whether the eyes of other giant spiders besides the raft spider were ingredients for the potion, so he included them directly.

"Adams, once the giant spider is discovered, you will organize a hunt."

After arranging matters on Necromunda, the Primarch ordered the Second, Fifth, and Eleventh Chapters to depart, bound for Vigil.

"Interrogator" Howard Finder tortured the Eldar prophet to find out the location of the Vigil Star. Nimrod, considering that Sam-Han Ark was famous for its fighting skills among the Eldar, decided to go to support the Arbitration Lord.

At the same time as the fleet returned, the main star of the Triken system.

In this virgin world transformed by the Eldar, even the rugged peaks appear soft and beautiful.

"Pharmacist" Mitchell built his laboratory on the top of a pristine mountain with the most lush vegetation. He would walk around the mountain every day before sunrise.

Today was no exception. The chief pharmacist, dressed in a black robe, strode along the mountain road.

The Shadow of Order's gaze swept around, stopping from time to time to check the herbs in sight.

The most important reason why the "Pharmacist" chose this peak was that he discovered many primitive medicinal herbs here: sage with gray-green oval leaves, lemon balm that exudes a light yellow resin with the scent of citral, and evening primrose that splits into four petals when mature...

Mikel stopped from time to time to operate the prosthetic arm behind him to pick herbs. The surgical forceps were temporarily replaced with a specially designed picking tool.

A sidereal hour later, his backpack filled with herbs, the chief pharmacist immediately returned to the laboratory.

The "pharmacist" places fresh lemon balm and other herbs on a drying rack and bakes them at low temperature, removing other parts and retaining only the essential oil components.

He then mobilized his spirituality and used "applicable materials" to begin domesticating plants.

He placed the sage leaves in the bottom of the mortar, holding the pestle vertically. He began pressing in gentle circular motions, gradually increasing the pressure as he heard a rustling sound. Once all the sage was broken, the "pharmacist" began to finely grind it. He slowly rotated the pestle clockwise, keeping his wrist in a steady arc, using the grooves on the mortar's inner wall to crush the fibers.

When the leaves turned into coarse particles, he turned his wrist upside down and made small, quick counterclockwise circles to make the powder even and fine.

The oil in the leaves seeps out as the temperature rises and condenses into tiny oil droplets on the wall of the bowl.

The "materials" of the "pharmacist" are suitable, and the spirituality will be fully mobilized throughout the process to domesticate plants and lifeless animal materials, so that the materials processed by extraordinary abilities can have better effects than ordinary medicines.

The "pharmacist" then processed the deer antlers and other materials in turn. After preparing all the materials, he began to make the medicine.

After weighing all the liquid solvents, he poured them into a large crucible with a diameter of two meters and turned on the ignition rune.

After the liquid boils, pour in ingredients such as evening primrose, and finally add a drop of lemon balm essential oil.

The "pharmacist" picked up the sterilized glass stirring rod and began to stir rapidly.

After fifteen minutes, he stopped and closed the rune.

As the liquid in the pot gradually cooled, the air was filled with a strong sweet and herbal aroma.

Mikkel picked up the potion bottles from the side and poured the brown liquid into them one by one.

The filled medicines were neatly placed on the stainless steel reagent rack. When the chief pharmacist wiped the sweat from his forehead, he felt something seemed to be dissolving in his body.

He picked up the control wand from the shelf and pushed a silver cart filled with reagent racks to a marble door.

Mikkel raised the control wand and pressed the activation rune on the top of the wand.

Green runes flickered, and with a click of hinges, the marble door slowly opened.

The chief pharmacist pushed the silver cart through the gate, turned around and closed the gate with his control wand.

Then, Mikel went down along the spiral corridor.

The chief pharmacist pushed a silver cart and arrived at the mountainside, coming to the lounge where the candidates gathered and waited. He picked up a bottle of potion in his right hand, shook it and spoke to everyone.

"Come to me and get in line for the potion."

The warriors of Vostroya looked at the tall giant in confusion. If they didn't know that Mikel, who was dressed in a black robe and looked like the king, was the chief pharmacist, they would have suspected that he was a deceitful and unscrupulous drug dealer.

They are on a journey to heaven, so drinking potions won't help.

"Although it cannot change your physical constitution, it can reduce the rejection reaction."

"This is a unique ability bestowed upon me by the Lord."

After hearing this, the candidates no longer had any doubts. They lined up in an orderly manner, took the potion from the "pharmacist", and drank it with their heads tilted back.

The "pharmacist" spoke after distributing the potions to all the candidates.

"You will immediately go to the operating room and begin the transformation surgery."

After saying this, the chief pharmacist raised his control wand and pointed it at a white alloy metal door.

The runes flickered, the door opened, and the candidates filed in.

Mikel also walked quickly to the operating room below. He took the data tablet from his follower and slid his fingers to check the data.

[Since I developed a drug to alleviate rejection reactions, the success rate of surgery has increased by 5.2%.

But the first aid potion was not as effective, and the probability of death only decreased by 1.4%.

This is the limitation of being a "pharmacist." In this respect, I am not as good as a "doctor."
While thinking, the "pharmacist" began to inspect the operating room.

As soon as he walked past the operating room No. 4, he found that the patient undergoing the transformation was trembling.

The "pharmacist" immediately activated his clairvoyance and determined the exact location before the detection equipment. The prosthetic limb behind him immediately extended toward the patient and began to rescue him.

In operating room No. 16, after finishing the operation, "Doctor" Malena Scala walked out of the mountain along the corridor, boarded the airship, and flew towards Farm No. 5.
