Chapter 512 320: Making the Second S-Class Potion

The vast majority of Extraordinary Items in the Doomsday World are various types of Crystal Stones. Their functions are singular, and their development is quite limited, completely incomparable to how the Cyber World utilizes Extraordinary Items.

'I'll have to gather information on this in the Cyber World. Perhaps I can try to make contact with the Wizard community there.'

'Aishwarya? Forget it. The risk of contacting a Tier Four Wizard is too high. I could be exposed.'

Lin Qi split off a part of his focus while in Meditation to contemplate his future plans for the Cyber World.

Now that the trouble in Red Fruit City was resolved, there wouldn't be any more problems in the Cyber World for the short term, making it necessary to plan ahead.

He continued to think while meditating for twelve hours straight. He had reached the limit of his high-efficiency Meditation for the day; continuing any longer would yield diminishing returns.

Lin Qi ended his Meditation and opened his eyes.

He walked to a corner of the room where there was a patched-up area on the wall. Next door was the Pharmacy Laboratory.

Picking up the case in the corner, Lin Qi walked out of the conference room.

Just as he was about to enter the Pharmacy Laboratory next door, Lin Qi suddenly remembered something. He grabbed a random survivor and gave an order, "Go find Wang Ziru for me. Tell him to go to Wei Yue and let her know I'm about to conduct an experiment. No matter what happens next, she shouldn't worry. Everything is under control."

'Creating an S-Class Potion will most likely draw out the Blood Moon Will, and Wei Yue is terrified of that thing. It's better to give her a heads-up.'

'It would be a hassle if she got scared out of her wits.'

After receiving the order, the survivor's face flushed with excitement. He nodded repeatedly, then made a beeline for Wang Ziru's office.

Lin Qi smiled without a word, walked into the Pharmacy Laboratory, and began creating the S-Class Potion.

'The last batch of Extraordinary Materials only has enough left to make three more S-Class Potions at most. I need to hurry up with producing more Extraordinary Materials.'

'Then again, Mo University Camp is short on manpower. Maybe I can find a solution through Ding Yang.'

Looking at the remaining materials in the lab, Lin Qi thought for a moment before beginning the potion-making process.

With the experience from last time, Lin Qi was much more composed.

He activated his Spiritual Vision, processing, mixing, and reprocessing one Extraordinary Material after another...

There was no set formula for creating an S-Class Potion. As long as the adhesion effect of the Spiritual Particles on the Extraordinary Materials increased after processing, once enough materials were added, the so-called "Spiritual Light" had a chance to appear.

This was extremely simple for Lin Qi. As long as he "watched" with his Spiritual Vision, there was no chance of error.

Just over three hours later, a wondrous sensation quietly emerged.

According to the descriptions in the S-Class Pharmacy Literature, there were two ways to proceed with the potion-making at this point.

One method was to add an Extraordinary Item of any Level, which would directly push the Potion to its final step and give birth to Will Power.

The other method was to continue adding materials, maintaining this "Spiritual Light." As the quantity of materials increased, the Potion would naturally complete its final transformation and become a complete S-Class Potion.

Lin Qi had chosen the former method before, as the Doomsday World had no shortage of Extraordinary Items.

The reserves of Crimson Crystal Stone were in the hundreds of millions.

This time, however, Lin Qi chose the latter.

'Does the Blood Moon Will appear because of the S-Class Potion itself, or because I added a Crimson Crystal Stone last time? This is a good opportunity to test it.'

Lin Qi added one Extraordinary Material after another, constantly maintaining the adhesion effect of the Spiritual Particles.

Lin Qi discovered that as long as the adhesion effect of the Spiritual Particles didn't weaken, this "Spiritual Light" would not dissipate.

Conversely, if the adhesion effect of the Spiritual Particles fluctuated after adding a material, even if it only decreased by a tiny fraction, the "Spiritual Light" would become unstable, as if the profound and mysterious sensation might vanish at any moment.

'No wonder the production capacity of S-Class Potions in the Cyber World has always been so low. Extraordinary Items are already in short supply, and the major corporations control most of the inventory. Even S-Class Pharmaceutical Researchers can't just freely use the first method to create Potions.'

'If I didn't have Spiritual Vision, I'd probably need to study for several years and then accumulate a few more years of potion-making experience just to make an S-Class Potion.'

He gained a new appreciation for Pharmacy.

With the addition of yet another Extraordinary Material, the adhesion effect of the Spiritual Particles reached its peak.

The Spiritual Particles attached to the Potion seemed to boil.

The next second...

A terrifying Will Power was born!

The intensity of this Will Power was even greater than the last time Lin Qi made an S-Class Potion!

The Blood Moon Will!

It was the Blood Moon Will again!

Not the pure Will Power found in ordinary S-Class Potions.

Lin Qi didn't hesitate for a second. Before the Spiritual Particles within the Mo University Camp could mutate further and form a phantom of the Blood Moon, he immediately took out the Dragon Country Badge.

The two were so close that the Dragon Country Medal reacted instantly.

A burst of incandescent white light erupted, pouring from Lin Qi's fingertips and shining in a straight line toward the Potion.

When the Holy Light came into contact with the Blood Moon Will, the two immediately began to "battle," one growing stronger as the other grew weaker.

They wore each other down, ultimately leaving behind pure Will Power and a single Holy Light Bead that precipitated at the bottom of the Potion.

The power of the Holy Light was endless, but the Blood Moon Will seemed to have no source, and it was quickly defeated under the Holy Light's corrosion.

The process seemed thrilling and perilous, but in reality, it took less than five minutes.

Lin Qi looked at the S-Class Potion before him, sighed, and muttered to himself, "So it's not the Crimson Crystal Stone's fault. Now there are only two possible reasons left. One is that there's a problem with the Extraordinary Materials from the Doomsday World—that they're inherently tainted with the Blood Moon Will."

"Or, there's a problem with the Doomsday World itself, and creating an S-Class Potion in this world will always cause the Blood Moon Will to appear."

"To figure out the reason, I'll need to run a control group experiment."

'I have to get to the bottom of this. Anything involving the Blood Moon is a major issue.'

'After I return to the Cyber World, I need to get my hands on a batch of Extraordinary Materials and bring them to the Doomsday World to test this.'

'As for bringing materials from the Doomsday World to the Cyber World, the risk is too great. If I accidentally conjure the Blood Moon Will in the Cyber World, not only would it be hard to clean up, but I'd also easily attract the attention of the Eastern Alliance.'

'For now, I can only mess around in the Doomsday World.'

To Lin Qi, the Doomsday World was the perfect testing ground. Any risky operation could be carried out here.

He didn't have to worry about being watched, and the level of secrecy was literally world-spanning. It was very safe.

Lin Qi poured the finished Potion into a test tube, removed the Holy Light Bead, and set it aside.

After a moment's thought, he moved the Holy Light Bead even farther away.

'I have no other plans in the Doomsday World today. I might as well use this time to use up all the remaining Extraordinary Materials.'

'There's still enough to make two more S-Class Potions.'

'If I work quickly, I should have enough time to make them.'

If the Pharmaceutical Researchers in the Cyber World knew about Lin Qi's efficiency in making S-Class Potions, they would definitely spit up blood from jealousy!

Three in one day!

They had to toil away for half a month, failing three to five times, just to produce a single S-Class Potion.

What did all their effort amount to?

Was it all for nothing?

...

Three and a half hours later, another clash between the Blood Moon Will and the Holy Light occurred.

Another S-Class Potion was successfully created by Lin Qi.

Failure?

'With Spiritual Vision, how could I possibly fail?'

...

Another three and a half hours later, in the lonely expanse of space approximately 400,000 kilometers from Lin Qi's location.

A crimson moon hung high, its back to the Earth. A massive fissure spanning its surface seemed to tremble faintly twice.

But tens of thousands of kilometers away from it, inside a spacecraft in a stable orbit, a Tier Five Extraordinary Item suddenly erupted with incandescent white light.

The light had only just begun to gather when the massive fissure on the moon's surface stabilized.
