Chapter 166: In vivo experiments with pharmaceuticals

In the cabin, Richard pursed his lips and looked at a basket of two liquids, one yellow and one basket, and did not directly pour out the dark blue ones, but used the dark blue potion and the light yellow potion, combined with a large number of raw materials that he had already obtained to make a finished product.

After all, the purpose of researching this potion is not to simply make it and use it, but more to figure out some of its principles, so as to optimize and improve it, and more in line with its own requirements - this is the meaning of science.

Thinking like this, looking at the two completely different finished potions, one blue and one yellow, Richard began to think about how to test the effects of the two potions.

Testing it with your own body and drinking it directly is naturally the easiest, most intuitive, and most efficient way, but it is very risky.

Before conducting your own human experiments, you should test other creatures.

So......

Richard looked up at Pandora, who was still asleep on the bed.

It is said that since getting on the ship, Pandora has been sleeping almost every day, occasionally waking up, in a daze, and then continuing to sleep, as if hibernating.

But here's the problem...... It's already spring.

If it's hibernating, isn't it a little sluggish? If it's hibernating, isn't it too early?

Richard could only conclude that this was a stage in the development of the dragon as a creature, and that Pandora might be able to grow to a certain extent after a long period of sleep, become stronger, and eventually become as strong as Gregory at the beginning.

Just how long will this time be?

One month, two months, half a year, one year, ten years?

Lee noticed that he was now carrying Pandora, much like a sleepy pet. And according to the degree of sleepiness of the other party, it is no longer a cat, after all, the cat sleeps about 12 hours a day, more like a sloth - sleeps 22 hours a day - the remaining 2 hours are used to prepare for sleep.

In other words, in this case, if the other party pours the other party with medicine, what will be the effect?

Richard strode over to Pandora, then ...... He turned around and walked out of the cabin.

Considering Pandora's state, Li realized that even if Pandora really had to be poured with medicine, the other party might just turn over and continue to sleep, and there was no value in testing at all, so he ......

A few minutes later, after a few laps in the corridor of the cabin, Richard walked back to the cabin with two hapless mice—rats were still common on ships. Whether it's the wooden ships of the current medieval world or the advanced steel warships of modern Earth, there are rats. There are many harms, such as gnawing on food, disturbing the rest of the crew, and even spreading diseases such as plague.

And for Richard, these rats are also beneficial, at least not to worry about the subjects of live experiments.

Grabbing the two rats back to the cabin, Richard quickly began testing the potion.

The two mice, one large and one small, were poured by Richard with a yellow potion, which was a "one-eyed furious potion" made according to the standard process.

Later, Richard poured the smaller rat with a blue potion, which was made by changing the core ingredients in his own way, which can be called "Richard's unknown potion" for the time being.

After pouring the potion, Richard waited patiently and then observed the reaction of the two mice.

After half a ring, the two mice took on very different appearances.

The big mouse's eyes turned red little by little, and he kept shaking his head and tail, looking very irritable, while the little mouse shrunk and shivered, looking a little frightened.

So, can yellow potions cause hypertension, while blue potions cause fear?

Richard blinked, pulled out his scalpel, and dropped from behind the rat, cutting off the rat's tail.

The rat was unresponsive and continued to shake its head, apparently losing its sense of pain and danger.

Richard put the scalpel in front of the big mouse's body, and the big mouse realized something, and then "squeaked", and bit directly at the scalpel, biting the blade, and biting desperately with his teeth.

But for the special material of the scalpel, the teeth of the big mouse are still not hard enough, but in a moment, the teeth of the big mouse have been shattered, and the mouth is constantly bleeding. But the big mouse did not let go, and continued to bite, and Richard pulled out the scalpel and directly lifted the whole big rat.

"Hmm......" Richard's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said to himself, "Is this because the ingredients were extracted in an experimental way, and the purity was too high, which led to more insaneness? ”

As he spoke, Richard shook the scalpel violently, shaking off the big mouse with great force, and with a "bang", the big mouse fell hard into the corner of the cabin.

Who knew that the big rat that was thrown out jumped up like a spring and bit towards the scalpel again.

Richard raised his eyebrows, not politely, and stabbed the scalpel in his hand, nailing the big mouse to the wooden board on the ground.

Drawing his scalpel, Richard looked at the shivering mouse again, and proceeded with the experiment as planned.

As I approached with the scalpel, I saw that the little mouse was trembling gradually. Richard tentatively cut to the little mouse's tail to see if it would have the same result as the big mouse, and then found that when the scalpel was still a few centimeters away from the little mouse's tail, the little mouse had turned sharply and quickly retreated.

Richard's eyes flashed.

With a light breath, Richard moved his hand, threw out the scalpel, was quickly caught by the other hand, and then stabbed, the little mouse "squeaked", and quickly dodged again, not being pierced like a big mouse.

"Hmm...... It's kind of interesting......"

Richard said to himself, holding a scalpel and continuing to stab the little mouse, the speed began to increase little by little, the little mouse was controlled by the air wall in a fixed range, it was constantly dodging, and after a long time, it was not injured at all.

"Dodge...... Or is it more responsive?" Richard guessed, his eyes lit up.

The current behavior of the little mice can indeed be explained by the knowledge of physiology.

After all, according to the previous speculation about the "one-eyed berserk potion", the principle of the potion should be that it acts on the nerves, weakens the transmission of specific pain signals through a certain ingredient, and causes the continuous excitement of another specific signal, and eventually causes the person using the potion to become irritable, lose pain sense, and lose the sense of danger.

The yellowish liquid purified from the blood of the Griffin Rainbow Bird has this effect, while the dark blue liquid has the potential to do the opposite: to make the person who uses the drug fearful, to strengthen the signaling of pain nerves, and to increase the perception of danger.

Is that really the case?

Richard's eyes flashed as he looked at the little mouse trapped in the wall of air, extremely vigilant, and he didn't jump to conclusions. After all, everything is just speculation now, and some experiments need to be done to prove it, at least to rule out individual chances.

The next moment, Richard stepped out of the hatch again.
