Chapter 478 - 219: Master Alchemist Shirley
Seeing Lin Rui completely confused, the sister welcoming him also seemed a bit at a loss, weakly asking, "Guest, do you have any questions?"
Do I have questions?
Big questions!
Lin Rui glanced at the soft and cute petite shop assistant in front of him and asked, "You don’t recognize me?"
"It seems... I don’t recognize you. Should we know each other? My name is Vicki Haisi, have we met before?" The female shop assistant responded with a blank expression.
"Vicki Haisi." Lin Rui was very sure: "I’ve definitely never met you. Why are you the one in charge of this Advanced Alchemy Workshop, where’s Shirley?"
"Lady Shirley, she... got knocked out." Fearing Lin Rui wouldn’t believe it, Vicki Haisi continued to explain: "These past few days, Lady Shirley has been constantly getting hit on the head by various things. The worst was the day before yesterday, when a series of over ten books knocked her so silly she started babbling nonsense. She only came around yesterday, and today she barely recovered her spirits, and then a book hit her a few hours ago, completely knocking her out again."
Lady Shirley...
Lin Rui turned slightly, since when could this muddle-headed weak aunt be called "Lady"?
Lin Rui hadn’t had time to speak when Shirley’s signature exhausted and soft voice, as if she could faint at any moment, came from inside: "Vicki, who are you talking to? Ah~ I think you might need to come and see me first, I’m getting played out by my male god."
Getting played out by the male god...
Lin Rui felt a headache, the little aunt is still the little aunt. Not seen in person, first heard the wolf-like words. You just got hit on the head by books! It wasn’t me who did the hitting.
"Hey, wait, why does this voice sound a bit like the male god? And seems to sound even better than the male god. Just hearing this voice makes me pregnant."
Vicki’s eyes widened in shock, what kind of wolf-like words were Lady Shirley saying! Can such words be said directly?
Lin Rui pressed a helpless hand to his forehead, saying, "That might just be her inner voice, her state isn’t right, why don’t you go support her."
Vicki glanced at Lin Rui in shock, her eyes full of gossip, evidently within these few seconds she had spun a tangled and bizarre yet vulgar love triangle story in her head involving Shirley, Lin Rui, and the "male god."
Lin Rui felt helpless too, he thought that the battles had ended three days ago, and Shirley should have recovered, but who knew that just before the end, she’d get hit by another book.
Soon, whispers from Vicki and Shirley came from inside: "Lady Shirley, there’s a super handsome guy outside, seems to know quite a lot about you, isn’t he just the male god you always talk about."
"A super handsome guy? Then it’s definitely not my male god. My male god is on the talent track."
"Ah, but if my male god looked a bit more handsome, it would be even better. Then at night, facing his poster would feel more enticing."
"Oh~" What exactly is this little aunt doing with her own photo?
The sound of Vicki nearly fainting with fear came from inside too: "Shir... Lady Shirley, do you know what you’re saying?"
"Hey? Why does this question sound so familiar? Seems like there’s a silly girl in the territory who asked me the same thing."
"Could Vicki also be silly? Not good, if the male god finds out I invested so much effort in a silly person, I might really get played out!"
"Shir... Lady Shirley, you’d better stop saying strange things, let me help you out."
"Huh? Why won’t you let me speak? Weird."
At this moment, Lin Rui realized that having a strong physique might not always be a good thing.
Just like now, facing Shirley with flushed cheeks, looking temptingly inviting, Lin Rui couldn’t bear to look straight, yet he still had to pretend as if he hadn’t heard anything.
"Shirley, how are you? Are you okay?"
"Lo... Lord?! Why are you here?"
"Whoa! The male god truly looks so stylish! How did he suddenly become so charming? Even more enticing than when he wasn’t wearing clothes before!"
Vicki was completely dumbfounded, was Lady Shirley really this unreserved?
Lin Rui felt a black line appear above his head, you, a pure thirty-year-old aunt, when did you see me not wearing clothes?
Su Xi was also somewhat surprised, inspecting Lin Rui up and down, "Does the Lost Elf’s Blood Tears Red Wine have such strong effects? She admitted Lin Rui’s Charm had increased a bit, his demeanor and appearance had both improved. But in the eyes of a pure young girl, could the effect really be this exaggerated?
Lin Rui could only ignore Shirley’s inner voice that popped up later, took out a stack of potion formulas from the Spatial Treasure and said, "I’m here to check the production situation at the Potion Workshop, here are a lot of potion formulas, please see if you can produce them."
Shirley immediately accepted them and said, "Lord, the Potion Workshop’s production is going very smoothly, Vicki and I have already produced over five thousand bottles of Bloodline Enhancement Potion, especially after the Potion Workshop’s expansion, I’ve hired ten Alchemists to focus on production, greatly increasing efficiency. We even have spare capacity to produce other potions in addition."
Five thousand Bloodline Enhancement Potions, if produced over ten days, five hundred bottles a day, plus the help of a dozen Alchemists, it’s indeed quite easy for Shirley.
Her "Add a Bit" Trait, muddling through can indeed enhance production significantly.
However, this scale of five thousand bottles is still not large because the Bloodline Enhancement Potion has a benefit that every tier can be used once, increasing a small number of attribute points and Life Value, Spiritual Energy Value, and slightly enhancing Attack Speed, Movement Speed, etc. It belongs to optimizing the bloodline each tier, slightly enhancing combat power.
