Chapter 2107. Better Purifying
Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m
Remey was moving with a lot more speed than before. She was sure that a lot of the newer herbs coming in and changed. Especially with the facts that the world had denser manas than before. The natural flow had changed the properties of many herbs known to be weak or needed many to create a potential potion. The purifying effects of some herbs had even improved so much that they could be used to purify water just by having them dropped within a bowl of poisoned water. Not necessarily intentionally poisoned, but with rotten aspects of nature or from a place that should not be drunk from. This had been found by an herbalist that was working with fertilizer for some mushrooms. The fertilizer had come from a farm and was leaking water from the bags. The water had pooled in a large puddle under the cart and would have been an issue to clean up. While toxic and not good for many other things than helping mushrooms grow which would be used for other herbal or alchemy reasons, the water was not easy to clean up and move. So, she had realized that it needed to be buried. Yet, one nearby herb had just shed some leaves, the leaves had moved around due to the winds of the day. When the herbalist saw this she had moved to clean them up but noticed that the puddle of water was slowly changing from brown to clean. Something that she had only seen with stronger purifying potions. The herbs had released the oils naturally causing the toxic aspects of the water to fall to the bottom and the clean water to be on top. This had prompted her to rush to the plant and grab a fresh set of leaves. After that, they were brought to the alchemy guild where an entire class began examining them. The appraisals had decided that the green lemon thyme leaves had not been just changed by the manas in their environment. Isnetad, theta had grown much better than what they had been. They had often been used for cooking due to their unique flavor and their very weak purifying aspects on meat or food when cooked. Therefore, the alchemy guild had gladly pushed for them to become something within the herb fields for basic sale. It would make a decent profit while also smelling nice. The lemon scent that they had was earthy and herbal. Many candle makers would purchase it for the household claiming that the smoke also allowed for a light purifying scent. While that was mostly just something said to boost sales, now it might actually make sense. The herb had been evaluated to have become able to use light and earth manas to help cause a purifying effect within water along with the oils specifically. Remey had heard of this herb along with several other herbs that had these sorts of effects. But when walker had caused the quest to generate, she had thought about how many people felt calmer when they smelled the green lemon thyme. She had the idea that the calming effect was not because of the scent and their mentality. Instead, it had to do with the manas within a person being relaxed and made to flow a little more smoothly. When she mentioned this to Walker, he began appraising everything with the all around appraisal skill. His fingers moved to one leaf of the green lemon thyme and used a small spark of fire mana to burn it. The smell that drifted up easily made him calmer while also making the air in the herb storage feel less dense with humidity due to the temperature outside being a little warmer.
Reward: experience, the refined formula for the corruption cleansing potion.'
When he saw that the world had, he was overjoyed their sudden focus and work had only taken them two hours. But they had new information appearing within their mind. It was coming to fruition whether they liked it or not. An amazing amount of knowledge allowed Remey to work much more smoothly than what any other alchemist could do when it came to making new potions like this. It was years of learning and lately, experimenting. Because she had that working knowledge, she was able to produce these things much better than what others would even be able to imagine. Especially when it came to other potions that could be based on this. Without the experience of needing to make potions with similar effects out of different herbs, she would never be able to balance three manas within a potion compared to one or two. It perfectly demonstrated knowledge and precision in the way she had utilized her techniques. Walker could only be proud to have been someone to help this happen. ...
