The Primal Hunter
Chapter 26
Lying on the bed, Jake was proud of his progress for the day. He had mixed so many potions that he eventually had to just dump the mixtures in the sink. It was so incredibly wasteful, but he just didn’t have anywhere else to put it.
While there were undoubtedly many bottles, it was far from unlimited. He was re-using the bottles after he drank the mana potions but said potion consumption had fallen to nearly nothing after Jake had gotten his Palate of the Malefic Viper.
It wasn’t that he was entirely out of bottles; in fact, he had many left. He just knew that the potions he currently made wouldn’t be things he wanted to save. He also didn’t know where to store them. Pretty much every surface in the lab was filled with potions.
During the day, he had also eaten two new kinds of mushrooms too. One called [Reddot Stool], a small white mushroom with red spots on it, with the other identified as a [Brunneius Aqua Mushroom], a brown mushroom found growing from small puddles in the damp cave. Both were naturally inferior-rarity.
Overall his day had resulted in quite the progress.
*’DING!’ Profession: [Alchemist of the Malefic Viper] has reached level 7 - Stat points allocated, +2 free points*
*’DING!’ Race: [Human (G)] has reached level 8 - Stat points allocated, +1 free point*
*’DING!’ Profession: [Alchemist of the Malefic Viper] has reached level 8 - Stat points allocated, +2 free points*
*’DING!’ Profession: [Alchemist of the Malefic Viper] has reached level 9 - Stat points allocated, +2 free points*
*’DING!’ Race: [Human (G)] has reached level 9 - Stat points allocated, +1 free points*
The only significant difference was that he had decided to save the free points. The wisdom seemed to barely add anything to his mental capabilities at this point, and he was unsure if any other stat would help him in any way at the moment. He had considered willpower and endurance, hoping that it would allow him to stay awake longer and reduce the mental exhaustion.
But for now, he would save them. He was very close to level 10 in his alchemy class, at which point he would likely unlock another skill or some other benefit. So, he had decided to wait for the last level.
He had finished the book on elementary poisons, the two basic alchemy books, and had decided that he was ready to give concocting poisons a try the next day. He had eaten the shrooms and moss he needed as ingredients, and he had even found a book describing recipes.
Said recipes mentioned the Reddot Stool and Brunneius Aqua Mushroom, which was why he had decided to munch on those.
After getting up from his bed, he headed straight for the cave to collect a good batch of mushrooms and moss. And with that, he got to work. In retrospect, Jake wasn't sure it could even be considered work considering how easily it went.
Concocting poisons and brewing potions shared a lot of similarities. The mana injection and mixing were essentially the same, with only a few minor differences here and there. The most significant difference was the requirement to squash any elements of vitality within the ingredients while simultaneously amplifying the damaging properties.
When making health potions, the direct opposite of poison, you had to simply bring forth the already existing vital energies found within the herbs. That same vitality was found to a lesser degree in poisonous plants. They were living entities, too, after all.
vitality would lower the effect of the poison, and sometimes even wholly ruin the concoctions. This made Jake consider the silver mushrooms he had that gave vitality when consumed.
