593 Medicament and Library (1/2)
”If it's only these… Alright!” Flock nodded his head. ”The operation will start after a week. Remember to train your skills properly!”
He was quite clear on how a new Demon Hunter faced a high risk in these kinds of large operations, even if he were to be standing guard in the surrounding area. The newbie was basically cannon fodder.
Forcefully, the stars aligned, and Fang Yuan discovered a small secret. He had no choice but to follow the rules and forcefully go on with the mission. This was unfortunate.
”It's been a long time since I saw such a rational youth, I hope that he can survive.”
The vice president waved his hands and said, ”Bring him out and find Master Soma. Allow him to deal with his belongings first and give him the rights to enter the library on the way!”
”Understood!”
The lady led Fang Yuan out of the office before laughing lightly. ”I'm Lisa! If you have any questions in the branch, feel free to find me!”
As she said that, she gave Fang Yuan a look with her seductive eyes, making herself appear intimidating and bold.
Fang Yuan understood the hint instantly.
After all, Demon Hunters lived a risky life and were very shallow in this aspect. One night stands or what-not were very much common.
At this time, Fang Yuan thought carefully and realized that Lisa's looks were average, but she had a hot figure, especially her long legs that were very attractive.
”Of course!” Fang Yuan smiled and stuffed a note to her.
It has been proven by facts, that some things are common in western and eastern cultures.
After receiving the tip, Lisa was even more enthusiastic. She almost threw herself at Fan Yuan and even gave her room number to him.
”Master Soma is the best Pharmacist in the branch. There are many Demon Hunters that sought for his assistance to produce medicine, but his daily schedule is always full…”
After reaching an experimental lab, she had recovered to normal, except for her voice, which was still in a flirtatious state. ”However, with Lord Flock's instructions, your matter will be the priority!”
Pharmaceutics was a pretty high-level knowledge among Demon Hunters.
Just by only being able to produce treatment water, any pharmacist would be able to earn big bucks.
The only people that could be compared to them were the Forging Masters and the Alchemists.
”Lord Soma!” Arriving in front of the huge doors, Lisa shook the bell and used a sweet voice to say, ”there's an assignment, the vice president gave instructions to prioritize it first.”
Thump!
After a moment, a large sound or the sound of something exploding burst out from within the room. Thick smoke poured out.
Promptly, the head of an old man wearing a grey robe with oil stains, messy hair, and a pair of small gold glasses popped out, obviously in a bad mood. ”D*rn it… the experiment failed again. Who are you? What business do you have?”
Looking at him, he didn't hear what Lisa had said at all.
”Master Soma!”
It was also obvious that Lisa was clear about this master's temperament, and she was still smiling, ”This Demon Hunter brought over an ingredient, and the vice president gave instructions to entrust it to you so you can deal with it…”
”Alright, alright… You only know how to use the president to pressure me.” Master Soma muttered to himself before making way and said, ”Come in!”
Fang Yuan stepped aside, into the room and looked around curiously.
There was a layer of thick glass in the middle, separating the whole lab into two.
The inner half was a large platform—different types of scales, test tubes, beakers, and unknown machines were placed there. It was as if the lab was one from the previous generations, only that there was a burned spot somewhere and was very disordered.
At the other side of the glass were lines of wooden racks. As if it was a small garden, there were various plants with strange and unusual forms, their roots spread out in a transparent fluid. It seems like there was no soil being used. In addition, there was a fist-sized stone hanging in the air that emitted rays of light that were similar to sunlight.
”Soil-free plantation, man-made sunlight… To think that the pharmacists in this world are so advanced in the cultivation aspect…” Fang Yuan was slightly surprised and thought about it.
”Why? Isn't it unbelievable?”
Master Soma's face flushed, and boasted, ”You cannot find a cultivation room just like this one in the entire Hurin area. This 'Day Halo Stone' was dug up from the Demon Big Volcano by a group of elite Demon Hunters that I employed for a large fee.”
”It truly makes people gasp in wonder!” Fang Yuan nodded his head. ”I'm very assured that Master can help me.”
”Hmm,” Soma gave a reserved smile and said, ”what ingredient do you want me to deal with?”
”One vampire's heart, I need it to make treatment water!” Fang Yuan took out the glass bottle and put it on the experiment stand.
To the vice president and this Pharmacist, it was merely a vampire's heart; just an ingredient. Its value wasn't something that would make them go against their principles. Hence, Fang Yuan wasn't worried at all.
”Hmph… and I thought it was some difficult task? It's only to refine it into treatment water…”
Master Soma coldly snorted and looked at Fang Yuan. ”However, to be able to get the whole heart and keep it in a rather good condition must mean that the way you obtained the ingredient was decent. Rascal, do you know the rules?”
”Of course—if the refinement failed, you don't have to take responsibility, and if it succeeded, I can choose to get monetary compensation or the medicament.” Fang Yuan nodded his head because it was the seller's market, the pharmacist was very protective!
Using the same logic, those with high levels or those that were very proficient in alchemy and/or forging acted the same way.
