Basking in the warmth of a Fire Dragon Brand Air Conditioner, Liszt took out a Flame Magic Potion and a Thorn Magic Potion from the Gemstone Space.

The Flame Magic Potion was a magic potion made from Flame Mushrooms, and the Thorn Magic Potion was made from Rapid Growth Magic Thorns. To facilitate differentiation, he used simple and clear terms.

First, Liszt consumed the Thorn Magic Potion, waited a moment, and then consumed the Flame Magic Potion.

He then closed his eyes and began to circulate his Dou Qi, mobilizing the strength of his limbs and bones to absorb the magic power of the potions. At the same time, he was constantly reflecting on the different effects brought about by the different consumption methods of the two potions—the difference in physique caused even the same potion to have different effects and consumption methods for different knights.

To find the most suitable method of consumption is to be twice as productive with half the effort.

How to find the best way?

This requires time and continuous experimentation.

Liszt had already consumed three doses of the Thorn Magic Potion and had some preliminary understanding of its effects. He was adjusting the dosage and interval of consumption between it and the Flame Magic Potion to carry out the correct testing of the potions.

After about twenty minutes.

Liszt slowly opened his eyes and sensed the total amount of Dou Qi inside his body, which had quietly climbed another notch, and he revealed a relieved smile. The refreshing feeling of sensing one’s strength improve every day is something most people would find hard to experience.

“The cultivation of an Elite Earth Knight is like a ‘pharmacology study,’ constantly trying out different methods of consuming magic potions to make the body absorb the magic power more easily and to break through the total amount of magic power that cells in various body parts can hold,” he thought and had already taken out paper and a pen to start filling in a chart.

This chart recorded different effects resulting from different dosages and intervals of magic potion consumption.

Once he had consumed it multiple times, by turning the data in the chart into a curve graph, it would be very easy to determine the optimal method for consuming magic potions.

This was a scientific approach.

Science is about induction and summarization.

In contrast to the average knight who haphazardly tries out potion consumption methods, taking more some days and less on other days, Liszt’s scientific approach was simple, quick, efficient, and accurate: “Even though I don’t understand the fundamental principle behind Dou Qi cultivation, as a transmigrator, my knowledge and mastery of cultivation are definitely far beyond that of the natives.”

He believed that not even the emperor’s son could necessarily find a suitable potion consumption method faster than he could.

“My confidence in advancing to a Sky Knight before the age of twenty-two is solid.”

The quill did not stop.

Liszt then took out another piece of thick paper, also with a chart, which was a comparative data chart, comparing the differences between consuming potions in rooms with air-conditioning and those without.

Because of the cold weather in winter, when Liszt consumed the potions, he chose to do so in his study, enjoying the warmth of the Fire Dragon Brand Air Conditioner.

However, on the first day, he noticed some problems—his potency seemed somewhat increased when consuming the potions. At first, he didn’t pay much attention to it, as the effect was always good whenever he consumed potions in the study. But when he visited Tulip Castle and then Long Taro Castle, he clearly felt that consuming potions outside was not as effective as at home.

This comparison made him aware that the environment must have played a role.

He easily thought of the Fire Dragon magic power present in the study.

So he began to record the different effects of consuming potions in environments with Fire Dragon magic power and those without. Over the past few days of observation, he had recorded quite a bit of data, and there were clear differences between consuming potions inside and outside the study.

“With the bonus of Fire Dragon magic power, the effect of my Flame Magic Potion consumption increases by about 6.5% to 9.2%… I have only consumed the Thorn Magic Potion three times so far, so I cannot yet determine the increase, but there should be an effect… I guess the benefit of Fire Dragon magic power is to stimulate my Fire Attribute Dou Qi.”

He could feel that within the radiation range of the Magic Little Fire Dragon, his Dou Qi inside his body seemed more lively.

At the same time.

The size of the Magic Little Fire Dragon also determined the effect of the amplification. Under the premise that it wouldn’t burn people to death, Liszt had once made a Magic Little Fire Dragon as big as a water tank, using up an entire Fire Dragon Jar’s capacity of magic power. The result was that when he consumed a Flame Magic Potion, the effect was amplified to about 10.4%.

Compared to the palm-sized Magic Little Fire Dragon, which could achieve a 7% amplification, the water tank-sized Magic Little Fire Dragon, with twenty times the magic capacity, only increased the amplification effect by one point forty-eight times, making the improvement not very significant.

Moreover, the water tank-sized Magic Little Fire Dragon could almost cook him alive, making it impossible to concentrate on consuming the potion.

Therefore, after considering everything, he still chose to consume the magic potion in his study room. The temperature was just right, and it wouldn’t cause him to be distracted while taking the potion, so he could remain focused and calm from beginning to end.

…

The potion consumption continued, and the records were kept in a chart.

In a flash, two weeks had passed since he returned to Fresh Flower Town on January 9th, and it was now January 24th. The eight Blizzard Beasts had grown robust, grabbing and fighting over milk during feeding times, and their eyelids often twitched, which was a sign they were about to open their eyes. Liszt started to feed them himself and prohibited others from entering the room.

Sea Sprite Ake lived in the castle, playing with Minor Elf Jela and enjoying the fruits, not appearing too gloomy, except for the occasional replenishment of seawater.

That just meant taking her to the seaside and letting her soak in the seawater for two hours.

At that time, there was only Liszt by the seaside, standing on the snowy rocks, watching Ake dive and frolic in the ocean; his mood was as bright as the sun in the sky. Over the past week and more, he had already inquired all information about Sea Nixie Ake.

Sea-bred and sea-nurtured, the sea nymphs, rightfully called the elves of the ocean, have a birth process that is ingeniously similar to that of elves.

One is the essence of plants condensing, and the other is the essence of seawater condensing.

One can manipulate Cordyceps and affect the growth of plants; the other can manipulate their own shells and the seawater within them, as well as control the surrounding seawater.

However, elves need to evolve from Elf Bugs, growing until they reach a Greater Elf with the intelligence of an adult human; sea nymphs start with nearly adult intelligence. The growth of legs below their knees over time signifies maturation, with the appearance of two feet indicating adulthood, although their lifespan is unclear.

Ake is just an underage sea nymph, growing up alone in the ocean, where the “sea would tell” her some information; the rest she learned by listening to human ships.

Forty-one years allowed her to learn Serpent Script.

But she still retained the innocence and pure goodness of elves.

“Ake’s habitat may be between Golden Island and Newland Island; she has seen many ships with flags that appear like wheat sheafs. Those are the flags of the Golden Wheat Sheaf and Golden Grain Families.”

The Golden Wheat Sheaf is a Marquis Family with Golden Island as its territory, while the Golden Grain is an Earl family with Newland Island as its territory.

The two families split a few generations ago, with both having flags featuring a curved wheat sheaf that looks quite similar. Liszt’s brother, Levis, seems to have started a relationship with Marquis Roderick’s daughter, Loria Gold Wheat Ear… He hadn’t gone out of his way to learn about it, and most of the time, he was only concerned with his own matters.

After swimming in the sea for two hours.

Sea Sprite Ake obediently came ashore, although recently there had been no sightings of Intermediate Sea Monster Drumla Miktita, but he couldn’t guarantee it had left the area.

“Liszt, I’ve replenished my seawater; let’s hurry back, Jela must be getting impatient,” said Ake, now speaking Serpent Script more fluently and showing a livelier personality, with no reservations towards Liszt.

Stretching languidly, her elegant curves and pale skin dazzled Liszt’s eyes.

He composed himself, “Let’s go, home.”
