Beast Taming Patrol

"After you’re sure you’ve understood, I’ll demonstrate how to prepare it once. If you can succeed on the first try after my demonstration, this notebook is yours,” he said.

"Succeed on the first try?” Lin Su’s eyes widened.

Although he wasn’t clear about the difficulty of preparing the energy potion, how could it possibly succeed on the first attempt?

"The requirement isn’t high, a low-grade product will suffice.”

The man dropped this remark and sat down on a nearby sofa to begin meditating with his eyes closed.

Lin Su: “…”

Nonsense, as if I could prepare a higher-grade product on the first try!

Seeing the man like this, Lin Su had no choice but to resign himself to the reality, sitting on the sofa opposite, he picked up the sheet of notes and started to study it carefully.

After a while, the expression on Lin Su’s face eased a bit.

The analysis of the universal energy potion formula within the notes was extremely detailed and the wording simple.

True to something written by a master, each explanation hit the nail on the head.

Moreover, Lin Su couldn’t tell if it was an illusion, but he felt very familiar with the method of preparing the energy potion.

Although Blue Star had entered the era of beast taming, basic science had not been completely abolished, and fundamental knowledge of physics and chemistry was still touched upon; to Lin Su, the preparation of the energy potion seemed somewhat similar to certain chemical experiments.

This made understanding the principles much easier for him.

However, understanding the principles and actually preparing it clearly weren’t the same thing, and Lin Su had no confidence that he could succeed on the first try.

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Su looked at the vice president, “Senior, you can start the demonstration now.”

The vice president opened his eyes, gave a nod, and took out various resources and materials needed for preparing the energy potion from the Space Ring, beginning the preparation in front of Lin Su.

Lin Su’s expression was extremely serious, not daring to even breathe.

The preparation of the energy potion actually involved treating various resources differently, mixing them in sequence, and then obtaining the potion through crystallization once they were fully blended.

Every step of this mixing process couldn’t afford any mistakes; even a small error would be amplified through the subsequent steps and could have a massive impact on the energy potion’s grade.

Under Lin Su’s watchful gaze, the vice president used an exquisite tool to grind a first-grade Ghost Energy Crystal into a light purple powder and slowly added it into the first-grade Super Condensed Water contained in a crystal tube, allowing it to dissolve gradually until it disappeared completely.

The originally clear and transparent Super Condensed Water turned light purple in color.

Super Condensed Water, being water in a supernatural state, has different properties from ordinary water, being able to easily dissolve various supernatural resources. Its combination with the special energy crystal associated with Ghost Energy Stones—Ghost Energy Crystals—would form the base of the energy potion.

As more and more Ghost Energy Crystal powder was added, the color of the light purple liquid gradually darkened until, at a certain critical point, continuing to add the powder caused an equivalent amount of fine Ghost Energy Crystal particles to crystallize out of the solution, entering a saturated state.

Immediately following, the vice president took a fiery red Crystal Stone, with what seemed like tiny flames flickering rhythmically inside, and slowly approached the bottom of the crystal tube, then moving it slowly and rotating it just beneath the surface of the liquid against the side of the tube, evenly heating the Super Condensed Water.

The volume of the previously crystallized Ghost Energy Crystals started to decrease, redissolving into the Super Condensed Water as it was heated. Once the Ghost Energy Crystals were completely dissolved again, the vice president set the Fire Crystal Stone aside, letting the temperature of the liquid in the tube stabilize and cool down.

This time, the Ghost Energy Crystals didn’t crystallize out again. The liquid deepened in color, resulting in a flocculent deep purple throughout the tube.

With the base of the energy potion done, the vice president set the crystal tube aside, deftly proceeding to process the other various supernatural resources.

Grinding, heating, redissolving, condensing, crystallizing, mixing…

Each step was simple, but as the number of steps increased to dozens or hundreds, Lin Su began to sweat.

He could remember the order of the steps, but with so many of them, the difficulty of going through all of them without any issues was significantly high.

In the end, the vice president slowly poured a liquid substance from one crystal tube into a powdered material in another crystal bottle, which had gone through numerous processes. As they slowly mixed, a soft emerald glow emerged, with the light slowly turning from green to blue, then purple, and finally to gold. The intensity of the light itself gradually increased during the process.

When the glow faded, a bottle of fresh green energy potion appeared before Lin Su’s eyes.

It was precisely the universal energy potion described on the page of the formula he had just received.

And the fact that the light turned gold at the moment of the potion’s formation indicated that this bottle of energy potion was of perfect grade.

Indeed, as one capable of concocting Emperor Level energy potions, their craft was perfect from the start.

After patiently waiting for Lin Su to curiously examine the energy potion, the vice president spoke indifferently, “You may begin now.”

Start now?

Lin Su silently reviewed the entire concoction process in his mind, then finally nodded his head and placed the additional resources the vice president had provided in front of him, and began working.

The first step… the second step…

Lin Su’s every action was slow; as a novice who had never encountered energy potions before, he wished he could slow his actions down by a hundredfold to avoid any mistakes.

Even so, there were still minor issues.

The concoction of the standard energy potion involved a total of one hundred and twenty-seven minor steps.

At the thirty-first step, Lin Su’s hand shook slightly as he held the Fire Crystal Stone, causing uneven heating and a slight murkiness after a certain supernatural resource was added.

At the seventy-third step, when he was mixing two liquids, there was a slight discrepancy in the ratio, resulting in a mixed liquid whose color was slightly different from the color demonstrated by the vice president.

At the one hundred and twenty-sixth step, just as he was about to finish, his attention lagged slightly, causing the powder mixture to be uneven.

These were just the relatively obvious issues during the concoction; in other steps, Lin Su also made several errors.

In the end, Lin Su nervously combined everything together, and a very faint green light slowly emerged, revealing a yellow-green energy potion in Lin Su’s hands.

Just by its appearance, this energy potion looked far worse than the vibrant green potion that the vice president had created, resembling tender leaves.

But, it was ultimately made.

The emergence of the green light signified a low-grade product.

Looking at the faint green glow, Lin Su breathed a sigh of relief and turned to the vice president, “Uh, senior, does this count as a pass?”

"It barely passes,” the vice president nodded nonchalantly and handed over a notebook to Lin Su, “I’m giving you the notes, and you should take those books too. It’s more effective to study them in combination.”

"Thank you, senior.”

"I have other matters to attend to. You may leave now.”

"Alright,” Lin Su nodded.

He had achieved his goal at the Beast Taming Union and could now return home to ponder over the concoction of the energy potion.

He carefully held the notes and the books in his arms, and Qiuqiu, who was lying on the couch, looked at the books in Lin Su’s arms, then hopped up on his shoulder to settle down again.

"Meow~(￣ω￣)ฅ” (Changing positions~)

Lin Su smiled and rubbed his cheek against Qiuqiu, then prepared to leave the room. Suddenly, he had a thought and turned around, “Junior Lin Su has yet to ask for the senior’s name?”

"Mu Yuxing.”

"Then, Senior Mu, I bid you farewell.” Lin Su mentally noted the name, closed the door carefully, and quietly left.

It wasn’t until he had left the Beast Taming Union that he began to speak with a smile, “Qiuqiu, when we get back, I’ll study the energy potion, and you continue your training.”

"Meow!” (I want to taste the energy potion Lin Su concocted!)

"You don’t have to say it; I had forgotten. I should have taken the potion I made with me. Even though it’s of a low grade, it’s still the first energy potion I’ve successfully concocted. It’s not bad to keep it as a memento…”

"Meow!” (Exactly!)

…

In the room, Mu Yuxing silently picked up the energy potion that Lin Su had concocted and carefully examined it for a moment before slowly placing it back on the table.

His expression turned exceptionally interesting, his usual air of a master completely gone.

"Did he really concoct it correctly on the first try?”
