The Witcher: Darkness Falls

After Leon made his decision, the rest was up to Visenna.

Lyon could only brew some simple, low-level potions and knew nothing about brewing advanced potions.

All the potions used by witchers are low-level potions compared to the standards of potions used by wizards.

It has the characteristics of poor effect, short duration and high toxicity. Its only advantage is its simple configuration.

The Ouroboros Tears, a potion that can allow wizard apprentices to condense magic seeds, must be a high-level potion, and Leon would definitely not be able to make it by himself.

There would be no problem for Visenna. She was a druid who often brewed medicine and had a hundred years of experience in medicine making. It would not be a problem for her to refine the Tears of Ouroboros.

What's more, Visenna compared the prescriptions and then counted the medicines they already had, and there were a little more than two copies of the materials.

Therefore, even if Visenna failed once, she could still refine it a second time.

What's more, after checking the prescription again and again, Visenna said that there was an 80% chance of success in one go.

However, it takes some time to prepare.

Almost a week later, Visenna was ready.

The so-called preparation actually means preparing equipment such as crucibles for refining high-level potions, and also carrying out preliminary processing of some auxiliary materials.

High-level potions will generate powerful energy during the brewing process. An ordinary crucible may be shattered by an ordinary energy fluctuation, causing all materials to be wasted.

These things were moved out of the cellar of the cabin with the help of Leon.

Visenna doesn't usually make high-level potions because they have little effect.

Moreover, refining high-level potions requires a lot of rare materials, which cannot be bought. You need to go deep into the forest to find them, or exchange them with other wizards.

But she has these equipment, and even when she moves, she will ask her animal friends to help take them with her.

It is also necessary to carry out preliminary processing of auxiliary materials to avoid insufficient reaction between materials during the process of brewing potions.

This includes grinding some crystalline materials into fine particles of varying degrees to ensure that they have sufficient time to react, while not consuming the efficacy of other materials due to long reaction time.

Or the rough materials can be purified to ensure that most of the materials entering the boiling process are the essence, avoiding interference from impurities, etc.

The process was complicated and required a high level of alchemy skills from the wizard, so Visenna had to do it herself, and Leon could only stand by and do low-level work like chopping wood and making fire.

After the preparations were almost done, Leon carried a large bag and followed Visenna into the forest.

According to her, since it was her first time to make this kind of advanced potion, she needed the assistance of natural forces.

The natural power in the forest is much stronger than that in his cabin. In order to increase the success rate of refining, he can only go into the forest.

"Okay, I'm going to start now, and you just watch from the side.

Generally speaking, the preparation of high-level potions requires the setting up of an isolation array to prevent the escape of magical power.

Some small animals have weak mental strength and are easily attracted by this magical fluctuation, thus interfering with the refining process.

You have to try to ensure that I am not disturbed by these things. I have sprinkled insect repellent powder around. Insects will not come near here for at least three hours, but you will need to drive away the others.

Leon, we are using the power of nature to make medicine for you, so we hope you won’t harm their lives.” Visenna said to Leon solemnly.

The preparation of advanced potions is time-consuming and laborious, and the most taboo is being interrupted.

But as druids, they do not mind the loss of innocent lives because of their activities.

"Okay." Leon nodded. He threw the steel sword aside and had to rely on his hands from now on.

He helped Visenna set up the crucible, took out the prepared bottles and jars, and then stood aside on standby.

Visenna lit the firewood, but did not start cooking immediately. Instead, she chanted a spell.

Then, Lyon felt the wind blowing, but strangely, the surrounding grass and trees did not sway violently.

His Demon Hunter Medal only trembled slightly, not violently.

"The power of nature, so comfortable." Leon felt his body becoming relaxed.

The druids' worship and protection of nature will naturally earn them nature's favor.

After Visenna finished her chant, she methodically added the ingredients for Ouroboros Tear into the crucible.

Leon paid attention to Visenna's method of refining medicine, which was very different from his own.

First of all, the time interval between when the materials are thrown into the crucible is very long, sometimes as long as half an hour.

What's more, Visenna's control over fire is more precise. Leon can even see that the flame changes size very quickly under her control!

However, most of his attention was still focused on his surroundings.

At first, the reaction between the materials did not produce particularly strong magical fluctuations, so nothing happened.

Until Visenna poured a powder called Ouroboros Dust into the crucible.

puff--

Purple mist-like magic burst out, and at the same time, strong magical fluctuations were heard.

Lyon immediately became alert.

After a while, a poisonous snake came out from the bushes and headed towards Visenna.

Leon pounced over, grabbed the snake's tail and threw it away.

"It's not that difficult." Lyon thought.

Soon after, more and more snakes crawled out from the bushes and attacked from all directions.

Leon was busy and having fun around Visenna.

He kept catching snakes and throwing them away, making sure not to harm their lives and to avoid being bitten and poisoned himself.

Sometimes he could even recognize a snake that he had thrown out before.

If you can kill, everything becomes simple.

But unfortunately, I can't kill him.

In addition to snakes, birds flying in the sky are also attracted.

They flew dizzily and fell into the crucible.

But before they fell, they were caught by Leon and thrown out.

However, most of the creatures are snakes.

More than three hours later, Leon stood beside Visenna, panting.

Finally, no more poisonous snakes attacked, because the Tears of Ouroboros had been refined!

"Why are all the snakes attracted here?" Leon asked puzzledly.

Visenna also felt weak. It took too much energy to refine high-level potions, especially since she had never refined this kind of potion before.

"Look." She pointed at the purple potion in the crucible and said, "Stare."

Leon looked over and stared at the purple potion.

For a moment, he saw a ouroboros swimming slowly inside the crucible.

"What is this?" Leon asked in surprise.

Visenna shook her head and said, “I don’t know either, but I’m sure these snakes were attracted by it.

Put it away, I'm tired, and we'll deal with the rest tomorrow."
