Chapter 98: Alchemy Duel
Rollin and Simeone agreed that the winner of the match would be judged by seeing who succeeded in refining the potion more times in an hour, and if the two had the same number of successes, the one with the shortest time would win.
There is a problem with the success rate of refining potions, Xiang Luo Lin has successfully refined three of the five materials he refined in the Mitheus Hall before, and the success rate is about sixty percent, of course, Luo Lin has only refined five parts, if you really determine the refining power, you must refine at least ten parts in a row, and then deduce the success rate according to the number of successful refining copies, which is more accurate.
The success rate of refining is very close to the personal state at the time of refining, and the success rate is higher when the state is good, on the contrary, the success rate will be slightly lower, of course, under normal circumstances, the success rate of refining a certain level of potion is a relatively fixed value, and when the success rate of refining reaches ninety, you can refine a higher level of elixir.
Simeone has been in love with potion alchemy since he was nine years old, and began to learn alchemy under the teaching of his father Cervantes, his father was surprised to find that Simone did have a good talent in potion alchemy, especially in drawing alchemy circles and had a high level of understanding, so he also tried his best to cultivate his only son.
Under the hand-in-hand teaching of Cervantes, it only took Simeone more than two years to increase the success rate of refining the inaccessible elixir to ninety, so that he was also able to refine the three-star low-grade elixir, and after a period of practice, the success rate of Simone's refining of the three-star low-grade elixir also increased to about fifty percent.
The reason why Simone had the confidence to test potion alchemy with Luo Lin this time was because he knew that Luo Lin was a fellow practitioner of the three systems of fire, darkness, and thunder, although his affinity for these three elements was superb, but it was extremely time-consuming to cultivate the three systems at the same time, and he was only learning a magic of the dark system, and he had more time to learn alchemy.
In addition, although his father Cervantes is a master alchemist, his attainments in potions are not low, so he is confident that even if there are people behind Rollin who teach him alchemy, his conditions are still much worse than his own.
So he didn't hesitate to propose a competition to Luo Lin, his winning rate is still very high, if he wins the other party, not only will he get back the face he lost in the grade, but he can also get the guidance of the other party's undead space condensation, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.
The first step in refining potions is also an extremely important step: drawing the alchemy circle, at this moment Simone stood next to the stone platform, and the fire magic power in his body was transferred to his fingers, and then, the tips of his fingers turned fiery red, I saw him gently stretch out his arm, and his fingertips touched the stone platform slightly, and then began to draw the alchemy circle of healing potions.
The healing potion belongs to the three-star low-level elixir, which is the simplest of the advanced elixirs, although it is said, but refining its magic circle also requires 256 strokes, which is extremely difficult for people who have not learned the alchemy formation for a long time, especially for those who do not have a high understanding of the formation, but Simone is still extremely confident in drawing the alchemy array.
I saw that his fingers waved slightly, leaving a trace of fire magic on the stone platform, although the speed of his drawing was not particularly fast, but his movements were extremely coherent, there was almost no stop between the lines and turns, and in the blink of an eye, he drew more than ten strokes.
When he was drawing the magic circle, the corner of his eye also glanced at Luo Lin's side, only to see Luo Lin standing there looking straight at his own drawing, but he didn't have the slightest intention of doing it.
Simone's face couldn't help flashing a hint of triumph, and he said in his heart: "Presumably, this kid was impressed by my strength in drawing the magic circle, and he didn't have the confidence to draw, so he kept looking at me here, hmph, in this way, I must have won this time, and I'll wait for him to say some ideas for condensing the undead space, maybe with his guidance on that method, I can successfully condense it in a short time." ”
Under the adoring eyes of the attendants next to him, Simeone had already drawn nearly half of the circle without stopping, and at this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he found that Rollin had moved, and his fingers were also drawing on the stone platform.
"Don't give up yet, do you want to compare with me, my magic circle is already halfway drawn, no matter how hard you try, you will still fall behind, I think you are also self-comforting, I hope that you can refine it once later, it will not be too embarrassing." Simeone said to himself.
However, a moment later, there were a few gasps from the attendants around him, and Simone couldn't help but look at Rollin, but he was surprised to find that the speed of his hand command was a lot faster than his own!
Simeone pursed his lips and said in his heart: "This guy must think that he can't catch up with my speed, and he is spending all his time there, where can he draw such a complex thing as drawing formations so quickly?" So he didn't worry at all, and still drew carefully one stroke at a time.
As time went by, Simeone's circle was finally about to be drawn, and he couldn't help but be secretly happy that he had performed very well today, and he was about to complete the circle at one time.
At this moment, there was a low cry around him, and Simone peeked in and was shocked to find that the stone platform in front of Rollin was actually lit up with fiery red light!
"Drawing, drawing?" Simone couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, when he was halfway through the circle, the other party only started to draw, and now he hasn't finished drawing, the other party has already finished it, this speed is really ......
In a moment, Simone regained his composure, "Hmph, refining potions is not just about drawing a magic circle, it also depends on the perception of refining materials during the refining process, the control of mana and magic circle, etc., even if you draw a magic circle quickly, this refining may not be good!"
As a scorching heat rose in front of him, Simeone finally finished drawing the circle, the fiery red fire-based mana lit up, and several attendants next to him also whispered hello to their young master.
After drawing the circle, Simone did not delay for a moment, and skillfully put the magic crystal nucleus and the two herbs into the center of the array, the movement was fast but not chaotic, and immediately caused the exclamations of the waiters one by one, Simone listened to the exclamation, and his heart couldn't help but be extremely useful, however, he soon knew that this exclamation was not for himself.
Because he found that there was a fiery red magic circle suspended in the air in front of Luo Lin, and below the magic circle, a funnel-shaped thing slowly condensed out, which was the sign of the success of the elixir refining - the array leak!
