Chapter 392 - Exploitation  

Fang Heng shook his head in refusal.

He also wanted to verify all the remaining potions and earn quite a few potion formulas for free from Yatu.

Unfortunately, the previous two consecutive potion analyses had already depleted most of Fang Heng’s remaining mental strength.

If things continued, he would probably mess things up.

“There’s no need for that, Yatu. You already know my ability. Don’t waste time with these games. ”

“All right. ”

Yatu didn’t insist and put away the bottles on the ground.

“You passed the test. Come with me. ”

“Hint: your potion making ability has been approved by Yatu. ”

“Hint: your friendship with Yatu has slightly improved. ”

Yatu took Fang Heng out of the square and walked to a temporarily reinforced small warehouse nearby.

Five Scavenger Army NPCs were standing at the entrance, discussing something in a low voice.

A Scavenger Army officer raised his head and asked, “Yatu, who is he? ”

“He is Fang Heng, a member who just joined a few days ago. He knows a little about potion making. I brought him here to help us make potions. ”

Osborne looked at Fang Heng, then turned to look at Yatu.

“Boss Shang is very dissatisfied with your efficiency. There’s only a week left until the delivery. You have to speed up. ”

“I know. Have the medicinal ingredient reserves arrived yet? ”

“They will arrive this afternoon. I will bring you in first. ”

As the two of them spoke, the two NPCs on both sides of the door opened the thick iron doors of the warehouse.

Fang Heng followed Yatu and Osborne into the warehouse.

He immediately smelled a strong medicinal fragrance.

“A large portion of the medicinal ingredients stored in the warehouse are the ones we collected during the recent raid. Most of them are the basic medicinal ingredients used to make the divine potion. ”

Fang Heng nodded and looked around.

The warehouse was very large. More than a dozen Scavenger Army NPCs carrying shotguns stood at the edge of the warehouse and were on alert.

There were also a few NPC survivors making potions on the console in the center of the warehouse.

Fang Heng looked at the back of the warehouse. There was an even larger warehouse behind the warehouse they were in. There were piles of small boxes stored inside.

The strong medicinal fragrance came from there.

“It’s a temporary warehouse for the current special circumstances. Just use it for now. ”

Yatu led Fang Heng to the inner part of the warehouse, introducing, “The Scavenger Army has plundered a lot of materials from Edge Creek Town. What we need to do is to further process the materials and then concoct warlord potion. ”

“Warlord potion? ” Fang Heng frowned. “Isn’t it divine potion? ”

“No, no. Those who have used the divine potion will become excited. All their bodily attributes will increase, and their bodies’ recovery ability will be strengthened. Also, their pain perception will reduce. It is indeed a very powerful potion. However, the divine potion is very complicated to make, and the ingredients needed to make it are scarce. For battle purposes, we have come up with a modified version of it, and that’s warlord potion. ”

He continued, “Simply put, the warlord potion is only effective on people who have taken the divine potion. It can quickly heal the injuries suffered by the human body and relieve fatigue… ”

Fang Heng was enlightened when he heard what Yatu said.

He had learned the truth about the divine potion.

The ordinary divine potion was mixed with nutrient solution for the parasitic worms. The worms then infect the human brain, simultaneously causing both players and NPCs to become sick and strengthening their bodies.

From the looks of it, the warlord potion was probably a knock-off nutrient solution. It could allow the worms to accelerate the host’s life recovery ability.

Putting aside the risk of being infected by the worm, the divine potion was really overpowered.

Yatu went forward and walked to one of the consoles. “The environment isn’t the best, but make do with it. We only need to make the warlord potion. To warriors who have taken the divine potion, the warlord potion is omnipotent. It can solve all problems. ”

“Hint: Yatu has issued you a mission ‘potion making. ‘ ”

Mission name: potion making.

Mission description: the Scavenger Army needs a large number of warlord potions as reserves. The few potioneers in the Scavenger Army are not able to make a large amount of warlord potions. Materials in the army are in short supply. Yatu hopes that you can help the army to make warlord potions.

Mission requirements: assist the Scavenger Army in producing warlord potions.

Mission reward: Scavenger Army contribution points (the reward is related to the quantity and quality of the warlord potion submitted. If the production fails, part of the reward will be deducted) .

Fang Heng quickly glanced at the game hints.

Yatu uttered, “The warlord potion requires a wide variety of medicinal ingredients, and many of them can be replaced with similar ingredients. Considering our limited resources, it is vital to play by ear and judge which ingredients to put into the mix. Try not to waste too much. ”

Fang Heng did not have any potion skills in the past, but he had learned about potionology on the internet for a while.

“Using a similar substitute medicinal ingredient, the quality of the finished potion will be reduced, right? If one mixes similar ingredients instead to achieve the desired medicinal property, the impurities in the potion will also be greatly increased, affecting the quality of the finished product. ”

On the side, Osborne said, “Quantity comes first, quality comes second. ”

“This is the formula. ” Yatu handed two pieces of paper filled with words to Fang Heng.

“Hint: you have obtained the potion blueprint for warlord potion. ”

“Hint: you have learned how to make warlord potion. ”

Fang Heng looked down and felt a little dizzy. He thought, “Wow, the formula for the warlord potion is really complicated. There are six kinds of main medicinal ingredients and almost twenty kinds of supplementary medicinal ingredients. The are also various ways of mixing in the supplementary medicinal ingredients. ”

“Our Edge Creek Town is responsible for supplying warlord potions to the nearby areas. We have most of the required ingredients here. The headquarters will also send us a small portion of the medicinal ingredients every day. In addition, including Edge Creek Town, the medicinal ingredients plundered from the nearby regions will also be provided to our factory in the first instance. ”

Fang Heng nodded and followed Yatu to the potion making console.

A potioneer was preparing the medicinal ingredients needed for the potion making.

A set of ingredients had just been prepared on the console.

“Hint: the materials have met the requirements. You can choose a suitable custom formula to try to make the warlord potion. ”

“Hint: you have chosen a custom formula to make the potion. This potion will consume 36 Vitality. Player’s current potionology level is 1. Success rate of making the potion is 27% , and the grade of the potion after success is C to F. ”

“The success rate of making the potion seems to be a little low, ” Fang Heng lowered his head and thought.

The warlord potion did not exactly belong to the category of potionology, and making the potion only consumed Vitality.

It meant that the zombie clones could also make the warlord potion.

With enough zombie clones and enough medicinal ingredients, he could possibly make unlimited potions to earn points.

Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat. He raised his head and asked, “Yatu, how many potions do we need to make? ”

“Ha. ” Osborne, the commander of the Scavenger Army, sneered and said, “Young man, we need as many as you can make. ”

“As many as I can make? ” Fang Heng ignored Osborne’s tone and thought to himself, “This is great! ”

There was no limit to the Vitality of the zombie clones. When the time came, he could exploit their medicinal ingredients such that none would be left at the end of it all.
