Chapter 46 Where to go?

We have just started and have already reduced the number of Ms. Marys to four hours of class.

And the content is not knowledge related to alchemy.

Is it because of the discussion of sacrifices and sacrificial utensils?

Ailin thought.

"Alin? What's wrong?"

The sorceress was really worried now.

In the past, when the witcher apprentice listened to her lectures, he never lost his concentration.

Such a dazed and absent-minded look, isn't it exactly the same as those who are bewitched by evil gods?

Ailin came back to his senses quickly after hearing this, and thought the sorceress was angry, so he looked up and was about to apologize.

Unexpectedly, Vera's delicate and fair face was covered with tightly knit brows, and her worry was so strong that it seemed to be about to overflow.

Ailin's heart warmed up, and after thinking for a moment, he said:

"Ms. Vera, I'm fine. The sacrificial utensils given by the God of Evil Omens are bone utensils, right?"

After seeing the sorceress's hesitant expression, Ailin paused, then said calmly:
"I know what you mean, Ms. Vera. Don't worry, that water ghost whistle did not come from the evil god."

"Are you sure?" Vera was still a little skeptical.

She had given Ailin so many lessons, how could she not know his level in alchemy.

The sorceress extended her index finger and tapped her plump and moist red lips. She thought for a few seconds and said:
"Then make one here for me to see. The evil god's sacrificial utensils cannot be made without the participation of divine power."

"What materials do you need?"

Do it now?

Ailin was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously told the materials needed for the water ghost whistle.

"All you need is the larynx of a water ghost."

"Snapped!"

A snap of the fingers.

An orange-yellow portal opened in the alchemy room.

Before Ailin could react, Vera disappeared into the portal.

"Why...are you going to be a water ghost whistle now?"

The witcher apprentice muttered to himself.

Damn!

I don't even know alchemy!
After being stunned for a few seconds by the sorceress's swift and decisive actions, Ailin quickly opened the Demon Hunting Notes with his mind.

He must learn the water ghost whistle before the sorceress comes back.

[Ding! Do you want to spend 7001 small experience beads to unlock the alchemy skill? ]

spend!

In an instant, a large amount of knowledge instantly filled Ailin's brain, beakers, crucibles, distillation kettles...

The use of countless alchemical instruments, the processing methods of countless common medicinal materials, magical materials, monster organs, medicinal properties, magic matrices, etc., were all instilled into Ailin's mind, giving him a splitting headache.

Ms. Vera is still being conservative. It will take more than half a year to learn alchemy.

If you really start to learn it, you will probably only be able to learn the basics in three or four years.

It would take half a year just to learn all the instruments and commonly used materials.

About five minutes later, Ailin gradually absorbed all the knowledge gained from the upgrade.

"Fortunately, the alchemy room does not have any water ghost larynx bones in stock."

The witcher apprentice was thankful and wiped the blood from his nose.

If the sorceress saw him in this state with his skills unlocked, even if Ailin jumped into the Killer Lake, he would not be able to clear himself of the suspicion of being a follower of the evil god.

After carefully wiping the blood off his face, Ailin clicked on the Water Ghost Whistle blueprint pressed in the corner of the inventory.

【Name: Water Ghost Whistle】

【Type: Production drawings】

[Refining requirements: Alchemy LV1]

[Recipe: Water Ghost Throat Bone*3]

[Function: Blowing the water ghost whistle can make a whistle sound to attract water ghosts to gather]

【Note: Demon Hunter + Water Ghost Whistle =? 】

"Yesterday I thought this was a useless thing that could only be put away in the bottom of the box, but I didn't expect it to be the first formula he used."

Ailin sighed, and after he clicked on it with his mind, the process of making the water ghost whistle appeared in his mind.

At this time.

"Boom~"

An orange portal opened in front of Ailin.

Vera is back.

No, the first one to emerge from the portal was not Vera.

"Wow-wow--" Before Ailin could see clearly, a pale waterfall poured out from the portal.

The witcher apprentice stared at it in surprise.

Where is this waterfall?

Those particles that slid down tightly were all bones.

These are all what Ailin needs, the water ghost larynx for making the water ghost whistle.

A larynx is only half the size of a fist.

To create such a spectacular sight, there must be at least a thousand of them, right?
What’s even more rare is that there is not even a single peculiar smell when so many water ghost bones are gathered together.

The alchemy room still had the fragrance of orange mixed with cardamom.

Where can Vera find such processed larynx?

Could it be that the sorceress has a material library specifically for the water ghost's larynx?
But isn’t it true that only the brain and tongue of a water ghost have alchemical value?

Ailin actually had a vague guess about something, but he wasn't sure.

"dong dong dong~"

As all the larynx fell, the graceful figure of the sorceress walked out of the portal.

"Alin, are these enough larynx bones?"

"Enough! Enough!" Ailin nodded repeatedly, his voice unconsciously lowered.

He looked at the larynx bones that had almost formed a small mountain, and it seemed as if he saw water ghosts being slaughtered by the sorceress without any expression...

"Ms. Vera, you got so many larynx bones from which material warehouse?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lady Vera gave the witcher apprentice a strange look and said, "Didn't Vesemir teach you that a water ghost only has its brain and tongue to use?"

"What are these larynx bones?"

"I just picked these up. Since you need them, I might as well prepare more at once."

After Vera explained, she waved her hand, signaling Ailin to get ready quickly and make the water ghost whistle.

Ailin was so surprised when he heard this that his mind went blank.

These larynxes were actually killed by Vera within these few minutes?
Where was she killed?
Isn’t the nearest place Killer Lake?
……

A large number of questions appeared and disappeared from Ailin's mind.

After a moment, he came back to his senses.

He couldn't help but exclaim in his heart:

"Vesemir and Leto really have reason to fear Lady Vera. They killed nearly a thousand water ghosts just to get the materials..."

"Alin, what's wrong? Is there anything you need?"

Ailin quickly shook his head, avoided the sorceress's sight, and began to make a water ghost whistle.

Although the production drawings of the Water Ghost Whistle only require Alchemy Level 1, the difficulty of production is actually not small.

In the middle of the cylindrical body, there is a ring-shaped hole. An irregular bone ball rotates in this hole, colliding with the wall of the cylinder and making a sound that attracts the group of water ghosts.

So, the irregular bone ball is a difficulty.

Empty spaces and shapes are also a difficulty.

Both of them seem to have irregular shapes, as if they were created at random.

But in fact, they are all deliberately carved out.

So it is difficult and requires a very steady hand and extreme concentration.

In the end, it took Ailin nearly three hours to complete a finished product.

After wiping the sweat off his forehead, Ailin put the bone bead and the two halves of the cylinder together, then tilted his head to look at Vera, who had been silent for a long time.

He found that the sorceress's beautiful eyes were looking at him in trance. His shadow was clearly reflected in her clear and bright dark red eyes.

Just like the calm surface of Killer Lake, reflecting the green grass and trees on the shore.

"Why, are you done?"

asked the sorceress who noticed the sight.

Aelin nodded.

"Snapped!"

A snap of the fingers.

The orange portal opened.

The sorceress stood up and looked at the shocked Ailin and said:
"Come on, Alin, let's find a place to try it out."

"Where?"

Aylin was stunned for a moment.

"Of course, go to the nearest place..."
