Journey to the Witch World

Chapter 97 Batucci

The morning passed quickly.

"That's almost it. That's it for today."

After pouring the medicine formed in the beaker into the test tube, Byron walked out of the experimental table as he spoke. After several hours of continuous work, even he could not maintain his condition all the time. His face was obviously tired at this time.

On the experimental table, there are more than ten light blue [Magic Potions] neatly placed.

"Today's results are good. Out of thirteen rounds of potion configuration, only two failed, and the remaining eleven were successful."

Although his body was tired, Byron was in a good mood. He patted Enzo on the shoulder and said, "It seems that letting you be my experimental assistant is a right choice. You know, I usually prepare potions independently, and I can spend up to ten times in a morning." times, and there is a 30% failure rate!”

Enzo smiled humbly and remained silent, but he was thinking secretly in his heart.

"It takes half a day to prepare 13 rounds of magic potions, and the materials consumed are about 15 magic stones."

"Excluding two failures, a total of 11 [magic potions] were successfully refined, and each potion is worth 5 magic stones. If sold in a store, you can get at least 55 magic stones."

"The cost was 15 magic stones, but the profit was 55 magic stones. In just half a day, the profit was quadrupled!"

"However, this is only the most basic [magic potion]. If it is a more advanced potion, the profit will be higher. No wonder Byron can cooperate with Lilith's cabin. Refining the magic potion is really a huge profit!"

Enzo's eyes flickered, and his heart felt hot.

"I have recorded the entire experimental process on the chip and can view it at any time. Moreover, the analysis function of the chip can also find out the reasons for the two failures and obtain the most correct configuration process."

"It won't take long before I can master the [Magic Potion]!"

For Enzo, apart from the salary of 5 magic stones per week, the biggest benefit of serving as Byron's experimental assistant is that in the process of cooperating with the experiment, he can acquire some magic potion knowledge that cannot be described in books.

"It's getting late, you should go back and rest first."

After putting away the eleven [magic potions] on the experimental table, Byron said to Enzo that he also needed to rest after working for several hours.

"Then I'll go back first, Senior Byron." Enzo nodded and left the laboratory.

"I'm really lucky to have such an excellent assistant." After Enzo walked away, Byron's eyes flashed and he murmured to himself, "Perhaps I should consider starting the research and development of new potions from scratch. Already."

Along the path paved with black stone slabs, Enzo headed towards the bedroom.

"While taking the opportunity to be Byron's assistant, I must master as much potion knowledge as possible."

While walking with his head down, Enzo thought silently in his heart.

"With the recording function of the chip, I can understand Byron's experimental process in detail. It should not take long before I can master the formulas and production methods of some basic potions."

"Hey, friend!" As he was walking with his head down, Enzo suddenly heard a voice.

He raised his head and saw a bent-over apprentice in gray robe walking towards him.

He is short in stature, with the head of a deer and the eyes of a rat, and the way he walks while rubbing his hands is a bit funny. If it were not for the status medal he wears on his chest, he might be mistaken for a clown in the circus.

"Is something wrong?" Enzo asked confused, but he didn't know the other person.

"Hey, let me introduce myself first. My name is Bartucci. My friends call me Mouse." Bartucci tried to straighten his back, rubbed his hands and smiled, "I see you just came out of Senior Byron's laboratory. Could it be his assistant?"

"Yeah, what's the problem?" Enzo raised his eyebrows.

"Senior Byron has been looking for an assistant for two months." Bartucci's eyes flashed, and a chrysanthemum-like smile appeared on his face, but he looked a bit wretched, "Senior Byron has always been picky about assistants. After passing his test, my friend must also be a potion genius!"

Enzo was expressionless, staring at Bartucci who was smiling.

"Hehe, that's it." Bartucci was a little embarrassed by being stared at, but he still said with a flattering smile: "I have admired Senior Byron for a long time. I heard that he is refining potions recently. I don't know if he has any plans to sell it. , I guarantee a satisfactory price!”

"Oh, you're thinking too much." Enzo rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Are you kidding? Byron is a potion genius. Once the potions he refines are sold, they will be robbed immediately. Lilith Cabin has to pay an unknown price to obtain the right to sell them.

"Uh, friend, please help me." Bartucci said with a shrewd look on his face, "As long as you can get the magic potion refined by Byron, even the most common [magic potion], I will Everyone is willing to buy it at a high price!”

"I will consider it." Enzo waved his hand perfunctorily.

"Okay, get this address." Bartucci didn't give up and forced Enzo a map, saying, "In the forest outside the college, there is a market. I have always been there. If you If you can get the magic potion, you can come to me at any time.”

Enzo opened the map and found an area marked on it, which seemed to be a black market similar to a camp.

"Then I won't disturb my friends. Goodbye." Bartucci waved his hand after handing the map to Enzo.

"Wait a minute." Enzo suddenly stopped him.

"What's wrong, friend?" Bartucci's eyes lit up and he quickly stopped.

"Since you are a businessman on the black market, do you know if there is any way to get a set of magic potion equipment?" Enzo's eyes flashed, and he said, "If you can get some cheap magic potion materials, it would be even better."

"Magic potion equipment?" Batuch lowered his head and thought for a moment, hesitantly said, "I just happen to have a set of magic potion equipment, but it is second-hand, and the function is a bit backward."

"How much?" Enzo's eyes lit up.

Sooner or later, he will start to make magic potions. The equipment problem must be solved as soon as possible, and the materials must be prepared in advance. If he can find a long-term supply channel, he can save a lot of things.

"I have had that set of equipment for a while, and I have never sold it to others." Batuch's eyes evaded slightly, and a cunning look appeared on his face, saying, "Since you want it, then just give 18 magic stones."

"18 magic stones? Are you sure!" Enzo said with a smile.

The potion equipment sold in the store is usually worth 20 magic stones. As for the second-hand equipment, it is no more than 15 magic stones. Batuch offered 18 magic stones, obviously thinking that Enzo did not understand the market.

"Well, 15 magic stones is also OK." Batuch smiled awkwardly, rubbing his hands and trying, "How about 12? If it doesn't work, 10 magic stones is also OK."

Enzo shrugged and shook his head.

"Forget it, then you give 5 magic stones." Batuch seemed to feel a little painful, gritted his teeth and said, "To be honest, that set of equipment is indeed a bit backward, otherwise it would have been sold long ago. You give 5 magic stones, and we will be friends."

"Okay, when will the transaction be made?" Enzo nodded.

"Next week, I have to leave the academy recently to purchase a batch of materials." Batuch thought for a while and said, "When I come back, I will send the equipment to you."

"No problem." The transaction was completed, and the two separated.

I plan to update until chapter 100 is available. After that, I will maintain the pace of 2 updates per day. If I have enough time, I may update 3 times a day. Thank you all for your support!
