Doomsday game, my supplies increased tenfold

"Don't you like the look of this? It seems like you're always looking unhappy."

"I would like to ask, do you have other dark magician friends? Or... will this shelter core be sent to a place where other dark magicians can come into contact in the future?"

Although Chuanqiong didn't quite understand why Xiao Qi asked this, he still shook his head and explained to her.

"Except for you, I don't know any dark attribute magicians. And it will be sent to the mainland, where there are very few magicians. I think it is unlikely to encounter new magicians, let alone special attributes like dark attribute magicians."

Hearing this, Xiao Qi lost all his composure.

I won’t encounter other dark attribute magicians. Then the box monster said that he is the only dark attribute magician he knows. Could it be me?

"How are you, Xiao Qi?"

Xiao Qi came back to his senses when Chuanqiong called him. He coughed twice and shook his head.

"Nothing. I sometimes find it amazing. After all, there are so few dark magicians."

"There aren't many magicians, so dark attributes are naturally rare, and the same goes for light attributes. I've never seen a magician like me..."

Xiao Qi nodded, his eyes casually looking around, and suddenly fell on the medicine pot outside the yard.

"Does every magician know how to make potions? I see you have many herbs growing in your backyard, and the cores are also made from them."

"No, I'm an alchemist."

Chuan Qiong is actually an alchemist... no wonder.

"There are very few magicians in the world, and even fewer pharmacists. Although every magician can use his or her magic power to refine simple herbs, there is nothing that a pharmacist cannot do. This is why people on the continent would find me to help them refine the core of the shelter. If it were someone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't even be able to figure out the recipe."

It was a rare occasion for Chuanqiong to show off in front of Xiaoqi. Xiaoqi nodded in surprise. He didn't expect Chuanqiong to be so powerful.

"So... do you want to become an alchemist?"

Chuan Qiong's words made Xiao Qi's breathing stagnate, and a strange light immediately appeared in his eyes.

"Can I... too?"

"Of course, but... you have to take me as your master. Under my teaching, I think you will soon become a qualified alchemist."

Xiao Qi nodded in agreement without hesitation.

"I do, Master Chuanqiong."

"Okay, then follow me."

Chuanqiong stood up and walked out of the yard. Xiao Qi followed him hurriedly, fearing that he might miss any details.

Standing in front of the medicine cauldron, Chuan Qiong, as the master, put away his usual gentle smile and became a little more serious.

"What do you think is the definition of an alchemist?"

"Refine... a pill that can help people."

In fact, Xiao Qi himself didn't believe this answer. After all, could the so-called core of the shelter be described by elixir?

Chuan Qiong shook his head and raised his palm, letting a beautiful golden light flow across his palm. The golden light was like a swimming dragon, flexible and powerful, comparable to a pet.

"What is medicine then? Anything that can relieve pain and calm the mind can be called a good medicine. Apart from pills for oral and external use, anything else that can be used to achieve this effect is a medicine and is within the scope of what a pharmacist can do."

"Many people don't understand this, so they limit the meaning of being a pharmacist to this, which limits their development. Throughout their lives, they are just what people call a 'great magician'. This is the first lesson I will teach you."

Chuan Qiong placed his palm in front of Xiao Qi, and the golden light instantly transformed into various forms, and finally turned into a golden pill and appeared in front of Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi stared at the pill in astonishment and reached out to touch it, but the moment he touched it, he saw the pill turned into powder and dissipated.

"Anything that can be called medicine... What are the specific types?"

"I can't tell you that, because there is no fixed range, but look at that beautiful box... It will become a good medicine for thousands of people in the future, so it is within our refining range."

Xiao Qi seemed to understand, but also seemed not to understand.

"This pill is..."

"The answer you just wanted to know."

So it was because she needed it that Chuanqiong was able to refine it. After she realized this, the value of this pill was lost, so it disappeared.

It’s amazing…

"I know it's difficult for you to understand all this at once. Otherwise, there wouldn't be no one else besides me who can be called a true alchemist. In fact, in my eyes, the difference between other alchemists and me is not in strength or prescriptions. They haven't even entered the door yet."

Chuanqiong turned out to be the most powerful alchemist...!? Did he count himself as someone who had found a powerful person?

"When you truly understand all of this, prescriptions will be meaningless to you. As long as you want, you can easily create anything. But for people who are just getting started, you still need various prescriptions. I have a book with simple prescriptions here as a gift."

Chuan Qiong handed over a thick book. Xiao Qi took it with both hands and flipped through it casually. She found that it was filled with methods of refining various elixirs. She felt dizzy. Most of the materials in the book were things she had never heard of, let alone how to refine them.

"Thank you, Master."

Xiao Qi bowed respectfully to express her gratitude, and Chuan Qiong quickly helped her up.

"Unfortunately, I don't have any extra alchemy pots here... But it doesn't matter. Alchemy doesn't require any special props. As long as it's a container that can hold the medicine, the effect will be similar. It's more about controlling the temperature and the dosage and quality of the herbs. As for the dosage, it's already very clear in this book I recorded myself. As for controlling the temperature, you still need to try it yourself."

Chuanqiong called Xiaoqi over, and Xiaoqi immediately put away his books and came to Chuanqiong.

Chuanqiong put a few herbs into the medicine pot, and then taught Xiao Qi step by step how to refine them, interspersed with detailed explanations and introductions, as well as detailed questions on various aspects.

The time was neither long nor short. After Chuanqiong had taught Xiaoqi everything he thought he needed to teach her, Xiaoqi was already too tired to hold on. She had not yet fully recovered and was breathing heavily with an ugly look on her face. Chuanqiong, whose identity had changed from friend to master, was less gentle than usual and hoped to teach Xiaoqi more in the shortest possible time.

"I've already told you everything you should know. What you need to do next is to try more and understand what I told you at the beginning."

Chuan Qiong helped Xiao Qi, who had a grim look on his face, back into the house, and casually made a pill.
