Chapter 815: Unstable Potion
Su Xiao sat in front of the table and held a beaker in front of him.
From time to time, he would take test tubes and pour various liquids into the beaker.
*B-b-b-b-b~*
Bubbles began to rise from the liquid in the beaker.
After adding at least a dozen different materials, a bright light flashed in the beaker.
*Crackle!*
Cracks appeared on the beaker, but soon the black-green liquid inside the beaker began to become viscous.
— Failure? Nicholas's eyes widened and his cheeks quivered. His reaction wasn't excessive, for the materials Su Xiao used were very expensive.
Su Xiao ignored Nicholas and was still focused on the beaker.
Taking it in both hands, he quickly began to pour mana into it...
The liquid in the beaker began to boil, and the originally viscous liquid that looked like liquid asphalt began to dilute, and its color changed from black-green to light red.
The lights went out quickly. It took a total of 900 Mana points and a lot of precious materials to create this potion.
Su Xiao carefully picked up the beaker, poured the light red liquid from the beaker into a crystal tube, and corked it.
— Did you succeed or was this attempt unsuccessful? Can it help Carlos remove the unknown energy from his body? Nicholas's eyes flashed green as he spoke.
He was ready to snatch the potion from Su Xiao's hand at any moment.

Description: Only the brave will dare to drink it. Go ahead, brave man!]
There was no doubt that the potion in Su Xiao's hands was very effective, after all, it allowed one to recover 160 to 230 health points every second. If Su Xiao ended up with one foot in the grave, after drinking this potion, he would be able to recover to his peak in just 10 seconds, and most importantly, this potion would last for an entire hour.
However, although its effect was very powerful, its side effects were just as striking. Strength and stamina will be permanently reduced, as will health and mana. What was even more frustrating was the chance of a mental injury and the chance of being permanently paralyzed, plus losing the taste, smell, or touch not that anyone was eager.
This potion was of very low value to be consumed directly in battle, because after drinking it, the fighter could essentially be considered dead due to the fact that he could not move, but Su Xiao did not intend to drink it during the battle.
He created this potion solely for its regenerative effect and nothing more.
— Take it, " Su Xiao said and handed the unstable potion to Nicholas. He immediately took it quickly, uncorked the test tube, and took a deep breath.
Nicholas ' nose was immediately filled with a pungent and terrible smell.
The goblin immediately froze in place, and its eyes involuntarily rolled back in its head.
Nicholas ' stamina was obviously a little short of 70 points. In fact, he probably wouldn't have gained even 30 points of stamina.
Ten seconds later, Nicholas regained consciousness. "That's right... It's poison, right? You want... Poison Carlos? Nicholas swallowed as he said this.
— Did your brain just dry up or something? If Carlos dies, I will die with him. This potion is needed just so that Carlos does not die.
The reason why Su Xiao had spent so much mana to create this potion was because he clearly remembered the line from the mission description: "The unknown energy in Carlos' body has formed a low-level symbiosis with his body».
— Get in touch with Carlos and let him decide if he wants to drink it or not. I'll be very busy right now, I'll need to create some more potions. Here, all the materials I need to create them are recorded here, " Su Xiao said and handed Nicholas the list.
— Herbs with the attributes of water and life, seven materials that have passed through at least three refinements... Nicholas ' expressions grew uglier and uglier as he read it.
All the materials on the list were very rare, and although they could be purchased without much trouble, they weren't even close to cheap.
— Parts of the sun? Fire gold? Small soul crystals? After reading it out loud, Nicholas knew something was wrong. — What do you need these three materials for? Aren't they necessary for making bombs...
Nicholas wasn't stupid, and even though his alchemy level was inferior to Su Xiao's, he could still put two and two together.
Su Xiao stopped mixing the liquids and looked at Nicholas out of the corner of his eye.
— Parts of the sun are a concentrate of the fire attribute. The energy in Carlos ' body has a dark attribute. The fire gold will come in handy when the energy is released from Carlos ' body. When that happens, the fire gold solution will be able to suppress the remaining energy in Carlos ' body. As for the crystals, death is based on the law of ripple energy of the seventeenth... Su Xiao started quoting a lot of extremely clever alchemy terms to Nicholas, causing Nicholas to be stunned for a while.
His weak alchemy skills only allowed him to understand a very small part of it.
— Got it?" After saying that, Su Xiao continued to create the potion.
Nicholas shook his head, then nodded. Although he didn't understand much of what he said, he felt that it all made some sense.
In fact, Su Xiao had dismissed the usual nonsense. Sun pieces plus fire gold plus small soul crystals when combined with 500 mana points would turn into the Wrath of Apollo, the Sun God.
Nicholas went to see Carlos and collect the necessary materials, while Su Xiao made alchemy potions. In fact, with the exception of the unstable potion, the rest of the potions were just a simple cover.
Two hours later, Nicholas returned with large and small packages. Behind him was Carlos, dressed in an empire uniform.
Carlos usually wore the empire uniform when he didn't need to fight. He only wore his armor for battle.
Now Carlos was dressed in a strict military uniform, and there were drops of someone's blood on his mustache and chin. He was definitely a handsome middle-aged man. He would have no problem charming thousands of women in the empire, so it wasn't surprising that the night elf princess liked him.
Behind Carlos, just outside the door, was a woman in a long black dress who looked as if she might disappear into the darkness at any moment.
Except when she looked at Carlos with eyes full of love, the first thing she looked at when it came to other people was either her throat, her heart, or other vital organs.
After sensing her aura, Su Xiao knew that this woman was a very skilled assassin.
She is a night elf princess named Anna, Carlos ' lover. Although the night elves didn't want them to be together, there was nothing they could do about it. As for why they didn't want them to be together, it was all about their future children. Often the children of a human and a night elf had mediocre talents and did not adopt the invisibility of the night elves.
— Nicholas, who is he? The night elf princess asked as she walked up to Nicholas in a few steps. A black dagger slid out of her sleeve and was pointed at the goblin's throat. The sharp blade of the dagger even sliced through the skin on his throat and was clearly ready to pierce right through his throat at any moment.
— Anna, Miss Anna, dear Princess, he, he, he... The assistant I found, " Nicholas was so scared that he started to stutter.
— "Anna," Carlos said, and put a hand on Anna's shoulder, and Anna walked away from Nicholas with a small grin.
