After this contest, there was no need to say who was superior between the Berserk Blood Potion and the Dragon Strength Potion.
The Berserk Blood Potion only gave ten seconds of Berserk Transformation. Under the effect of Berserk Transformation, an ordinary Swordsman would be able to contend against a Great Swordsman. But the Dragon Strength Potion gave a full ten minutes of physical strength. This kind of increase was enough to let a 5th Rank Mage have the same physical strength as an 8th Rank Swordsman.
Take note, this was only a Rank 5 Mage.
The physical strength of a mage was not on the same level as that of a swordsman. Especially when compared to a monster like Barbarian Bill, a mage could only be described as weak. However, such a weak mage was actually able to fight on par with Barbarian Bill.
If it had been a 5th Rank Swordsman, even a Great Swordsman would have to rely on Aura and swordsmanship to suppress him. In terms of physical strength, even a Great Swordsman wouldn't be able to hold his own.
Comparing these two potions together was too unfair for the Berserk Blood Potion.
This was a complete crushing!
"Great Alchemist Hawkins, you should take your Berserk Blood Potion and return to Twin Moons Splendor. The Gilded Rose really doesn't need this kind of exchange …"
Faleau still didn't intend to let Hawkins off. He sneered as he looked at that Great Alchemist. Besides disdain and ridicule, there was also a trace of imperceptible pity.
If Hawkins knew that the Dragon Strength Potion that easily crushed the Berserk Blood Potion was only an inferior imitation, who knew what this Great Alchemist would think …
Perhaps he would be angered to death …
No, it wasn't just the Dragon Strength Potion.
Even the Berserk Blood Potion in Hawkins' hands was an inferior imitation. And just like the Dragon Strength Potion, the target of the imitation was Great Mage Merlin.
'I really don't know where Hawking got the courage to come to the Gilded Rose with a shoddy imitation and ask for a technical exchange. He even wanted to tear down the Gilded Rose's signboard. But now, he was easily crushed by another shoddy imitation. Ignorance is truly the greatest courage.'
"No … No, I don't believe it! You must have cheated! That's right! You must have cheated! This isn't a 5th Rank Great Mage! This is a Great Swordsman! I just saw him use Aura!" Hawking, who was at a disadvantage, was completely flustered. Even his words were incoherent.
"Haha, Great Swordsman …"
"How can he be a Great Swordsman? He's obviously a Sword Saint!"
"Go to sleep, Great Alchemist Hawkins …"
A burst of laughter suddenly echoed in the lobby. Hauss was a member of the Alchemist Guild, he could easily check whether he was a 5th Rank Mage or not. How could the Gilded Rose fake this kind of thing, let alone see Aura? A Great Swordsman in his twenties … If there really was such a genius, all the major forces of Thousand Sails City would have already gone crazy over him.
In the end, this farce finally came to an end with Hawkins' incoherent explanation. Hawkins dejectedly left the Gilded Rose, not even bothering to participate in the Meditation Potion exhibition. Fortunately, he left. Otherwise, Hawkins' already swollen face might have become even more swollen from the Meditation Potion.
There had been no publicity or preparation for today's alchemy exhibition. Even the start time of the exhibition hadn't been announced. It could be said that the Gilded Rose had been the most hasty and careless one.
But such a hasty and careless alchemy exhibition immediately caused a huge sensation in Thousand Sails City. In a short afternoon, most of Thousand Sails City knew that the Gilded Rose that developed the Hope Potion had recently developed two new potions.
One was the Dragon Strength Potion that completely suppressed the Berserk Blood Potion, and the other was the Meditation Potion that could allow mages to get rid of mana problems.
Lin Yun didn't appear from start to finish, because Lin Yun's research of the stone tablet had reached a crucial point.
That stone tablet had been in Lin Yun's hands for almost ten days, but besides the first day, when Lin Yun discovered that this stone tablet could increase the efficiency of the Magic Array, he hadn't made any other discoveries. But Lin Yun didn't give up on his research, because Lin Yun knew that a True Spirit Component in itself contained boundless mysteries. No matter how much time and energy he spent, it would be worth it.
Sure enough, Lin Yun's time and energy finally paid off today.
After the old butler left the alchemy laboratory, Lin Yun had been researching that stone tablet. Today was supposed to be a mana infusion test, and for this mana infusion test, Lin Yun had specially made a small tool. It was made of a mithril frame, a mana crystal, and three miniature alchemy arrays. These three miniature alchemy arrays had the functions of extracting mana, controlling mana, and pouring mana. Lin Yun used this self-made tool to extract mana from the mana crystal and pour it into the stone tablet.
There hadn't been any progress in this mana infusion test at first.
The composition of that stone tablet was very peculiar. It looked like a piece of stone, but its capacity for mana was almost limitless. In one afternoon, Lin Yun had already replaced four mana crystals, and each one was at least Level 10. The mana contained within wasn't just a little bit. Even a Great Mage might not necessarily be able to bear all of it. But there was no reaction when the mana was poured into the stone tablet, giving the feeling that it was a bottomless pit.
By the time the fourth mana crystal was consumed, Lin Yun was replacing it, but he carelessly put in an Undead Essence.
Then, the slate began to mutate …
The originally ordinary stone tablet suddenly flickered, and the death energy released in that split second made even Lin Yun feel breathless. Fortunately, Lin Yun reacted fast enough and rushed over to grab the stone tablet while casting a Flaming Hand.
Then, the flickering light on the stone tablet disappeared and it became ordinary once again. It was as if everything had been an illusion of Lin Yun's.
But Lin Yun knew that it wasn't an illusion.
Because Lin Yun could clearly see that after the flickering light disappeared, something had appeared on the stone slab.
That was the Flaming Hand Magic Mark. A flaming palm the size of a fingernail was inexplicably imprinted on the stone tablet.
