Ivoran Holy Water

Therefore, his original plan had failed.

“Hoo.”

Black let out a deep breath.

This incident was a bit trickier than the previous ones.

But there was no need to panic too much.

Because he still knew another solution.

In his mind, the method to obtain a certain potion formula slowly emerged.

It was a special potion specifically designed to counter the Blightbloom Fever spores.

The very same special potion researched by that Alchemist Sage.

Its name was [Ivoran Holy Water]!

According to records, the formula for Ivoran Holy Water had long been lost in the river of history.

Now, no one in the entire empire knew how to brew this potion.

That was why, when the epidemic raged, the academy and the Imperial Family had activated a high state of alert.

They had directly sealed off and quarantined all the infected students.

At the same time, they had tasked the alchemy department and the academy’s alchemy professors with developing a special potion.

Unfortunately, this potion was not so easy to develop.

Later on, the Imperial Family was even prepared to quarantine all these students until they died.

Cutting off the transmission route was indeed a wise choice.

In the end, the one who resolved this incident was none other than the protagonist, Jianye.

She had obtained the formula for Ivoran Holy Water.

And with it, she brewed the special potion, successfully eliminated the Blightbloom Fever, and saved the infected students.

For this, she even received an honor bestowed by Empress Elizabeth.

The only pity was that by the time she got the formula.

Kristine’s heart had already been mostly broken.

As for how Jianye obtained this lost potion formula.

Black, as a player, was naturally very clear.

In a certain room in the grand hall of Dragonheart Academy, there was an ancient book being used to prop up a table leg.

On one of its pages was a sealed remnant soul of an ancient necromancer.

By defeating this remnant soul, one could obtain the quest reward: [Formula for Ivoran Holy Water]!

In the game, this was a dungeon-clearing quest.

The quest’s name was “Deladi’s Last Wish.”

Therefore, Black planned to complete this quest as soon as he recovered from his injuries and get the potion formula.

He would cut it off at the source before the epidemic broke out on a large scale.

This way, Kristine could also avoid the blow to her reputation.

There were still five days left.

Black roughly estimated his injuries; he should be able to get out of bed in about three days.

So there was still time.

Then, came the most critical step.

He would use Kristine’s Silver Lily flowers themselves to turn the situation around.

He would use those Silver Lilies to make Kristine’s specialty, Silver Lily Lotus Soup, and infuse the special potion into it.

When all the sick students rapidly recovered after drinking this soup, personally prepared by Kristine.

This would be the most powerful counterattack to crush all rumors and turn the tide.

Only in this way could the epidemic be completely extinguished at its root.

And the stigma that had been forced upon the Silver Lilies and Kristine would be completely washed away.

This would turn this vicious conspiracy into an opportunity to rebuild her reputation.

Black took a deep breath, and a sharp light rekindled in his eyes.

He had to get better as soon as possible.

This second plan had to succeed; failure was not an option.

As for how to brew that special potion after getting the formula.

That was a problem worth considering.

If he handed it over to another alchemist, it would be difficult to explain the origin of the formula.

Besides, if he produced a special potion the moment the disease appeared.

People might even think he was the one who released the spores.

Black felt that it would be better to just brew it himself.

Of course, the premise was to unlock the Alchemist class.

He had already planned to unlock it anyway.

Because the assistance this class could provide was extraordinary.

The Alchemist, it could be said, was the most practical among the twelve classes.

This class’s direct combat ability was lackluster.

It had neither high-damage skills nor powerful direct support.

At most, one could throw potion bottles with various functions.

However, its indirect combat power was terrifyingly high.

In large-scale wars, the giant crossbows, runic cannons, and other war machines created by alchemists could often unleash terrifying power.

Their large-scale destructive effect was far beyond what ordinary classes could compare to.

The best proof of this was during the sea dragon tide.

Those alchemical weapons set up on the deck had easily torn apart a large number of sea dragons.

Not only that, another important ability of the Alchemist was to brew various potions and create alchemical items.

It played a huge role in the daily lives of humans.

Healing injuries and illnesses, restoring energy, engineering equipment, daily necessities…

Various alchemical potions and items greatly improved the efficiency of production activities and the quality of human life.

The products of alchemy had already permeated every aspect of the empire.

Therefore.

Although this class was far from as powerful or dashing as the Swordsman or Sorcerer.

It was one of the most popular among the common people and one of the cornerstone classes that the empire valued most.

A country might be able to look down on other combat-oriented classes.

But it could never afford to neglect alchemists.

They were the necessary force for driving national development and maintaining the functioning of society.

The most special thing about the Alchemist was its oracle.

This class’s oracle had no offensive or support capabilities; its effect was pure and ultimate.

It increased the success rate of brewing potions and creating items!

The higher the level, the greater the increase.

It was rumored that an Emperor-Tier Alchemist could achieve a staggering 99% success rate when creating any item.

Considering that the difficulty of brewing Ivoran Holy Water would certainly not be low.

This class’s oracle was undoubtedly the key to Black’s success.

However, regarding the unlocking conditions for the Alchemist.

Black estimated that it was most likely related to the process of brewing potions or creating items.

For example, if he brewed a low-level potion, he might get 1/100 unlock progress.

In any case, as long as it wasn’t like the坑 Bǐ unlocking condition of the Sorcerer, it would be fine.

The next morning, just as the sky was beginning to brighten.

In a daze, Black felt some movement outside.

He opened his eyes to see a slender and tall figure peeking around outside the window, as if confirming something.

“Brenna? The door isn’t locked.”

Black asked, puzzled.

He didn’t quite understand what his cousin was doing.

After hearing his voice, the slender figure stopped, then, as if having made up her mind.

She pushed the door open and entered.

When he saw the person’s face clearly, Black was a little surprised.

The visitor was Kristine, but her attire today was somewhat peculiar.

Kristine’s white hair was casually tied up with a piece of straw, and a Silver Lily flower was tied at the knot.

A few stray strands of hair fell in front of her ruby-like eyes, shimmering slightly in the morning light.

She wore a coarse brown linen dress, with a few leaves stuck to it.

Her calves were also stained with a bit of mud, which made her skin look even fairer and her figure even more slender.

In her hand, she held a basket of fresh eggs and fruit.

‘Farmer version Kristine?’

She looked as if she had just come back from working in the fields.

Seeing Black’s surprised gaze, Kristine wiped the sweat from her forehead.

She stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.

“Don’t look. I just finished working in the fields and didn’t have time to change.”
