Chapter 476 - 218 Rare Level Potion
[Elf Morning Dew XLII Perfume], this is obviously a product of Shirley’s potion workshop, even if it wasn’t made by her, it has everything to do with her.
Lin Rui only felt a toothache, he was only away from the territory for about one cycle, then fought for three days and two nights, for a total of just ten days without taking care of the territory, and the atmosphere of the territory had gone completely awry!
Shirley, with her perfectly good potion workshop, isn’t making bloodline enhancement potions, but instead has run off to make perfume? Is the world at peace? Or has she been infected by the Green Skins?
Lin Rui couldn’t figure out, no matter how hard he thought, what was his little aunt thinking? How did she come up with the idea of making perfume?
This important institution was entrusted to her care, she had absorbed so much fortune from the territory, she should have known, theoretically, she should take on a part of the responsibility for enhancing the territory’s combat power. Not to say she should be one of the towering pillars of the territory’s combat power, but at least a mainstay.
She had always been diligent in making various practical potions before, how could she suddenly come up with a batch of perfumes?
This development feels like it went off the rails at some strange point!
Lin Rui felt it was necessary for him as the Lord to correct the skewed atmosphere of the Alchemy Workshop and seriously studied the potion formulas littered on the table.
The Green Skins’ spoils were quite bountiful, with a total of eleven potion formulae laid out here!
Including eight fine-level potions such as [Toughness Potion], [Frenzy Potion], [Desire Cleansing Potion], etc., all capable of temporarily enhancing soldiers’ status or restoring Life Value, Spiritual Energy Value, etc., lasting from ten minutes to an hour.
These things are more the merrier, as long as the Alchemy Workshop keeps making them, the territory will distribute them to the soldiers.
However, since soldiers don’t have much storage space, and it’s hard to take a potion during combat, melee soldiers generally only carry three potions with them, not exceeding five at most, otherwise, there’s no place to store it in the heavy power armor. On the other hand, ranged soldiers and the Mage Corps, Priest Corps can carry more potions since they fight more leisurely.
Do you think soldiers purchase these kinds of potions out of their own pocket?
No! Quite the opposite, this is fully supplied by the territory.
Every soldier can choose the potions they want to match from the treasury, and after registering, they can take them.
Military resources absolutely have no cutting corners. To ensure the soldiers’ lives, the territory invests heavily.
Of course, this inevitably breeds corruption. Soldiers only use one potion in battle, then report having used three, selling the other two secretly, that’s very common.
The empire’s corruption has a style of its own.
If it wasn’t corrupt, how could it be called an empire? It might as well be called a Celestial Kingdom.
But compared to the massive wealth in the Golden Pansy Clan’s treasury, the consumption of these potions is insignificant.
What he’s always cared about are two words.
Production capacity! Production capacity! Production capacity!
If the Alchemy Workshop can continuously produce large quantities of potions, enough to fill the treasury, the soldiers’ consumption is entirely negligible.
The empire’s strength has never been its integrity, but its colossal scale! A scale that can overwhelm everything! Be it the number of troops or industrial output.
Therefore Lin Rui directly put away these eight blueprints, it’s not necessary for him as the Lord to be concerned, the Alchemy Workshop will produce at full capacity, without limit.
This naturally made Lin Rui find the production of perfume in the territory quite peculiar, completely mismatched with the cold industrial style. It’s like a husky suddenly popping up among a group of giant, scaly dragons.
Yet it’s these remaining three potion formulas, suitable for this world, which can correct the skewed style of the territory’s Alchemy Workshop.
[Blood of Magnus · Rare Level Potion: Magnus is one of the most famous Mages and Alchemists in Imperial history, and this potion is one of his life’s proudest creations. It is said that only those Alchemists who are both wise and perseverant can prepare this miraculous potion. It’s regarded as the most complex and expensive of all Soul Potions, staggeringly powerful, its user will possess unparalleled Physique and Will. Each person can only consume it once in a lifetime, with a permanent effect: Physique Increases Life Value +100%, Recovery Effect +200%, Total Life Value +15%, gains [Will of Steel] Trait which increases Willpower by 3*(Willpower) points Physical Defense, and blocks a fixed amount of damage based on Willpower. Requirements: Alchemist of Rare Level or above, Pharmacy Skill lv20, Advanced Alchemy Workshop, requires materials: Worster Grass, emerald, enchantment oil, demonization dust, Interstellar Crystal, Elemental Essence...]
This potion can be consumed only once in a lifetime, but the effect is permanent, with Physique Value permanently enhancing soldiers’ Life Value far above normal levels. While other Tier One soldiers might have 500 Life Value, they might have 1500 or even 2000. Of course, if you consider other traits, life fruits, etc., other territory soldiers could have 500 Life Value, while the territory soldiers’ Life Value can be ten times that of their opponents, soaring to 5000! Higher than Tier Two or even Tier Three soldiers.
Moreover, Will can continue to enhance soldiers’ Physical Defense and Fixed Damage Reduction, a soldier with 230 Willpower gains an additional 230 points of Fixed Damage Reduction and 690 points of Physical Defense. Although not much, it’s the most reliable strength increase, capable of boosting overall strength by a few percent.
