Under the dim flame, a youngster of black hair is standing before the Alchemy platform, both hands move ： in the herbal medicine bag, balance, the pounding medicines in a mortar pestle, the big iron saucepan and air blower anchor ropes flexibly back and forth 昏暗的火光下,一个黑头发的少年正站在炼金平台前,双手灵活地在草药袋、天秤、捣药杵、大铁锅、鼓风机拉绳间来回移动： Two ounces dry in the shade the pot marigold, one ounce nettle, joins the stone mortar respectively, with five points of strength, stirring the steamroll, one. two seconds, count 1000. 两盎司阴干金盏花,一盎司荨麻,分别加入石臼,用五分力气,边搅拌边碾压,一秒两下,计数一千下。 In iron saucepan additional quarter water...... 铁锅中加四分之一的水…… Poured into the herbal medicine that ground...... 先后倒入碾碎的草药…… Boil...... 熬煮…… The step is not complex, however his each movement as if takes the ruler quantity to be excessively ordinary, is accurate and succinct, effort moderate...... 步骤并不复杂,然而他的每个动作都仿佛拿着尺子量过一般,精准、简洁,力度适中…… After the quarter of an hour, extinguishes the flame of top, the youngster is pinching the iron saucepan the hand, the vibration wrist/skill sways evenly, the liquid medicines that will then not have seethed with excitement fall the snake neck bottle slowly, the this time movement is steady and rapid, has not sprinkled one drop again. 一刻钟后熄灭灶台的火焰,少年捏着铁锅的把手,抖动手腕摇晃均匀,接着将尚未沸腾的药水缓缓倾倒进蛇颈瓶,这一次动作平稳、迅速,没再洒出一滴。 When he raised faint yellow potion, smelled the delicate fragrance of that chrysanthemum, gave nearby both hands link chest onlookings cautiously big baldy. 等他提起淡黄色的药剂,闻到那股菊花的清香,才小心翼翼递给旁边双手环胸旁观的光头大汉。 „Letho, how do you come to see this time end product?” “雷索,你来看看这次的成品如何？” big fellow smells, moistened with the fingertip instilled the fluid, including the mouth, closed one's eyes the feeling moment. 大汉闻了闻,又用指尖沾了一点药液,含进嘴里,闭眼感受片刻。 Roy wiped the forehead crowded beads of sweat, both hands closely gripped in the same place, seemed waits for the criminal who the judge tried, the whole person seemed very tense. 罗伊擦了擦额头密集的汗珠,双手紧紧攥在一起,好似等待法官审判的罪人,整个人显得很紧张。 „Boy, congratulates you!” “小鬼,恭喜你！” „Hū ——” youngster to feel relieved long relaxes, stretches the both arms to transfer same place, was happy that soon cried. “呼——”少年如释重负长长地松了一口气,舒展双臂原地转了一圈,高兴得快要哭了出来。 No one knows that what day these three days he crosses is, besides the routine training, opens eyes starts Alchemy, closes one's eyes starts Meditation. 谁都不知道这三天来他过得都是什么样的日子,除了例行训练外,睁眼就开始炼金,闭眼就开始冥想。 In his opinion, the technology of Alchemy this stubborn detail may, boring than much the arrow shooting training difficulty. On the world, is this world, Roy to involving precision instrument aspect has little interest. Viper School Witcher Letho pays great attention to Alchemy very much, requests to be severe to him. 在他看来,炼金这门死抠细节的技术可比射弩训练困难、无聊得多。无论是上个世界,还是这个世界,罗伊对涉及精密仪器这方面都没太大兴趣。偏偏蛇派猎魔人雷索很注重炼金,对他要求非常严厉。 He hopes, has Skill that refining up instantaneously. 他多么希望以后有个瞬间炼成的技能。 „Un, although this pot marigold potion quality is inferior to the works of most countryside herbalists, but it effective is not false.” Witcher said, „you then only need through to practice unceasingly, make hundreds and thousands of qualified potion, the level naturally can enhance.” “嗯,虽然这支金盏花药剂的成色不如大部分乡下草药医生的作品,但它有效不假。”猎魔人说,“你接下来只需要通过不断地练习,制造出成百上千支合格药剂,水准自然能提高。” „Right, Letho, since pot marigold potion treats the flesh wound more effective than the pure herbal medicine,” Roy said the doubts in heart, „how will take to sell it, to have the sales volume, can make money?” “对了,雷索,既然金盏花药剂比单纯的草药治疗外伤更有效,”罗伊说出心中的疑惑,“把它拿出去卖如何,会有销量吗,能挣钱吗？” Witcher shaking the head answered, „you can want to obtain this point, others were not the fools. The civilians of floor will think that potion is too expensive, rather oneself buy ready-made, cheap herbal medicine, is completely sufficient. The rich people cannot use pot marigold potion, has the well-known doctor to come to diagnose and treat...... the medical domain for them, which city, related to the intriguing interest relations, involving is very deep.” 猎魔人摇头解释道,“你能想得到这一点,其他人也不是傻子。底层的平民会觉得药剂太贵,宁愿自个儿买点现成的、便宜的草药,完全够用。富人又用不上金盏花药剂,有知名医生替他们上门诊疗……医疗领域,无论是在哪座城市,都涉及到错综复杂的利益关系,明里暗里的牵扯很深。” „You, if dares to peddle potion on the avenue casually, the luck good to sell several...... to be reported and put Prison to eat one month of mouse again.” “你要是敢随随便便在大街上兜售药剂,运气好能卖上几支……再被人举报、抓进监狱吃上一个月老鼠。” „Drops the impractical idea, the potion most appropriate use keeps for oneself.” “打消不切实际的想法吧,药剂最合适的用途还是留着自用。” The Roy hear somewhat regretted, but he thinks , if willing to work hard to seek personal gain the relations, should be able to make money, but such will spend lots of time, might as well be a merchant directly. 罗伊听完有些惋惜,但他认为如果肯下力气钻营关系,应该能挣到钱,但那样又会花费大量时间,不如直接当个商人。 „If preserves appropriately, this bottle of potion term of validity are close for a month.” Letho starts to urge, „the present continues, makes about five, on the road is sufficient temporarily.” “如果保存得当,这瓶药剂有效期接近一个月。”雷索又开始催促,“现在继续,制造五支左右,路上就暂时够用。” ...... …… In a flash three days passed by, Roy under the severe supervision of Witcher, after dozens attempts, succeed to refine five quality irregular pot marigold potion, the progress in Alchemy efficiency are quite slow, from the beginning possibly in ten times can succeed one time, now almost nine times. 一晃眼三天过去了,罗伊在猎魔人的严厉监督下,经过数十次尝试后,成功炼制出五支品质参差不齐的金盏花药剂,在炼金效率方面的进步极为缓慢,一开始可能十次里能成功一次,现在差不多九次。 With the Letho level just in turn. 跟雷索的水平刚好反过来。 Roy can also understand, after all he refines the potion time actually altogether also several days, is not naturally able to compare with a Witcher dozens years of experience. Moreover „Alchemy” has not crossed the threshold, has not formed Skill in panel. 罗伊也能理解,毕竟他实际炼制药剂的时间总共也才几天,自然无法跟猎魔人数十年的经验相比。而且“炼金术”尚未入门,没有在模板之中形成技能。 This probably is a long process. 这大概是个漫长的过程。 The Roy Alchemy practical lesson comes to the end temporarily. 罗伊的炼金实践课暂时告一段落。 Witcher starts to take over control of the Alchemy platform, refines magic potion and Alchemy Bomb, as well as before Green Grass Decoction that he prepares personally medicine. 猎魔人开始接管炼金平台,亲手炼制魔药、炼金炸弹、以及为他准备的青草试剂前药。 He has not been idling, is responsible for the primary treatment of herbal medicine as the assistant. 他也没有闲着,作为助手负责草药的初步处理。 „Five ounces drying in the shade Celandine grinds the powder, one ounce Drowner brain to grind the powder, remembers I have emphasized matters needing attention.” “五盎司阴干的白屈花碾成粉末、一盎司水鬼脑碾成粉末,记住我强调过的注意事项。” Letho is putting on a serious face, mouth to keep putting out one after another instruction, facial features chilling has, if the stone carving, in the thick palm various types of dexterous Alchemy instruments transform smoothly. 雷索板着脸、嘴里不停吐出一个接一个指令,五官冷硬的有若石雕,粗大的手掌里各种轻巧的炼金仪器流畅转换。 Before Alchemy platform, that majestic back, formed the strong contrast with the clever finger. Witcher just like a wise oil painting Grandmaster, is creating a wonderful peerless painting. 炼金平台前,那雄壮的背影,与灵巧的手指形成了强烈反差。猎魔人宛如一位高明的油画大师,正创作着一幅美妙绝伦的画作。 Roy became one screwed tight the spiral spring „Puppet”, in narrow dim Room Alchemy, keeps moving from dawn to dusk. 罗伊则成了一个拧紧了发条的“傀儡”,在狭窄昏暗的炼金里,从早到晚动个不停。 Perhaps changed into the ordinary person to be completely muddled, but benefitted from him surpasses Spirit Attributes of average man, can long time maintain concentrates on, and will not feel excessively wearily. 换成普通人没准早就晕头转向,但得益于他超出常人的精神属性,能长时间保持专注,且不会感到过度疲倦。 The own participation entire process he understands magic potion and difference of potion refinement. 亲身参与整个过程他才明白魔药与药剂炼制的区别。 By simplest, Witcher most commonly used „Swallow” is the case, related to the material only has Celandine and Drowner brain. The step actually includes to dry in the shade and grind, heating, distillation and second to heat up...... dozens steps, each step is quite tasteful, even if presented a wee bit mistakes and fingers to shake. The final end product absolutely is the defective product. 以最简单,猎魔人最常用的“燕子”为例,涉及到的材料只有白屈花和水鬼脑。步骤却包括阴干、碾碎、加热、蒸馏、二次加热……数十个步骤,每一个步骤都极为讲究,哪怕出现一丁点儿失误、手指抖了一下。最终的成品绝对是残次品。 Important one step, after the solution bottling after boil, Witcher with both hands its handful, closes one's eyes to make the Meditation condition. 至关重要的一步,将熬煮后的药液装瓶后,猎魔人用双手将其捧住,闭眼做冥想状态。 At this time Roy can feel faintly, between Letho and that bottle of magic potion as if had some invisible exchange, related to the mana level. In fact this is Letho is compromising magic potion using mana in within the body, making in the bottle the hydro energy stabilize finally. 这时罗伊隐隐能感觉到,雷索和那瓶魔药之间似乎产生了某种无形的交流,涉及到魔力层面。事实上这是雷索在利用体内的魔力调和魔药,让瓶中之水能最终稳定下来。 Lacks this point, magic potion can only be the half-finished product. 缺少这一环,魔药只能算是半成品。 ...... …… When day and night Alchemy, Roy forgot quickly the outflow of time, refines „Swallow” from the beginning magic potion, he can also be familiar with several steps. 在没日没夜的炼金之中,罗伊快忘掉时间的流失,一开始炼制“燕子”魔药时,他还能熟悉几个步骤。 Will start mixing of sword oil, Alchemy Bomb and former medicine again in the future, his two eyes one groping, the brain turns into one group of starch. 再往后开始剑油、炼金炸弹、前药的调配,他就两眼一摸黑,脑子变成一团浆糊。 Related to the working procedure are too many, extremely in numerous and diverse. This partial content is not his current Alchemy level can understand, he gave up the ponder simply, follows the Witcher instruction purely. 涉及到的工序太多、太过于繁杂。这部分内容绝非他目前的炼金水平所能理解,他索性放弃了思考,单纯地跟随猎魔人的指令。 Although he only learned pot marigold potion, but works as in the busy time of assistant to Witcher, his familiarity to the Alchemy instrument considerably increases. These will further study Alchemy to build the solid foundation for later. 虽然他只学会了一种金盏花药剂,但给猎魔人当助手的忙碌时间里,他对炼金仪器的熟悉度大大增加。这些都将为以后进一步学习炼金术打下坚实的基础。 How long has not known, five days, or one week. Witcher refines two bottles „Swallow”, two „Dimeritium Bomb”, as well as after another pile of magic potion . 不知过了多久,五天、或者一周。猎魔人炼制出两瓶“燕子”、两枚“反魔法金属炸弹”,以及另外一堆魔药后。 Suddenly makes Roy leave Room Alchemy to move and rests relax freely for day. 突然让罗伊离开炼金自由活动、休息放松一天。 In the intense work that Roy was soon pressed from that type suffocates, atmosphere that does not dare to breathe to extricate, the thoughts were slightly detachable. 罗伊从那种被压得快要窒息的、大气不敢喘的紧张工作中解脱,心思稍微活络了一些。 Unexpectedly next day Witcher from was rejected for loading in Man zhong liquid and finger-thick glass jar to take out a swayed to him in front. 不料隔天猎魔人从一排装满某种液体、手指粗细的玻璃瓶中取出一支摆到他面前。 „This is specially for the former medicine that you refine.” Letho amber brown pupil is staring at his black eye, said slowly, „drinks for a long time will make your body adapt to magic potion Toxicity gradually. In order to drink Decoction of the Grasses builds the foundation.” “这是特意为你炼制的前药。”雷索琥珀色的瞳孔盯着他黑色的眼睛,缓缓说道,“长期饮用会让你的身体逐步适应魔药的毒性。为饮用青草药剂打好基础。” Hears the word „Toxicity”, the complexion whitening of Roy. 听到“毒性”一词,罗伊的脸色变白。 „No wonder will make me relax for day, before those facing the death penalty were executed, there is beheading food.” “难怪会让我放松一天,死刑犯被处死之前,也有一顿断头饭。” Immediately in his surface regarding the Trial of the Grasses risk again how indifferent, stemming from the instinct of self-protection, the heart actually repels to drink these toxic materials. 即时他表面上对于青草试炼的危险性再怎么无所谓,出于自我保护的天性,心底却排斥着饮下这些剧毒物质。 „Do not worry, Boy, by your current Constitution, withstands before sufficiently, medicine Toxicity.” Letho gets a panoramic view his expression, opens the mouth to encourage to say rarely, „except for the pain of short time, it will not have any sequela to you, this is the conclusions of innumerable experiment.” “别担心,小鬼,以你目前的体质而言,足以承受住前药的毒性。”雷索将他的表情尽收眼底,难得地开口鼓励道,“除了短时间的痛苦,它绝不会给你留下任何后遗症,这是无数次试验的结论。” „Hē this gadget, in the future can I pass Trial of the Grasses?” Roy the transparent glass jar will lift to the light, discovered impressively, before Trial of the Grasses , the medicine is not unitary like the ordinary potion like that color, shape is pure. “喝下这玩意儿,未来我就能通过青草试炼？”罗伊将透明的玻璃瓶举到灯光下,赫然发现,青草试炼前药不像普通药剂那般颜色单一、形态纯粹。 But is flooding the dense and numerous algae shapes and parasite green filiform bodies, the wholes present the pollution, but serious black, and viscous rich, making the will of the people bottom feel nervous. 而是充斥着密密麻麻的水藻状、寄生虫般的绿色丝状体,整体呈现出浑浊而沉重的黑色,并且粘稠浓郁,让人心底发慌。 „In the world all matters, where has the absolute truth?” Letho said truthfully, „I can only tell you, once endured this slow and painful process, later the probability of Trial of the Grasses living will considerably increase.” “世上一切之事,哪有绝对的道理？”雷索如实道,“我只能告诉你,一旦熬过这个缓慢而痛苦的过程,以后从青草试炼中活下来的几率会大大增加。” „That actually painful?” Roy deeply attracts one, is forcefully calm. “那究竟会有多痛？”罗伊深吸一口,强行镇定下来。 „You know that the woman does have a child?” “你知道女人生孩子吗？” „Why asked?” “为什么这么问？” „The test record according to Vyse Godley, before taking , the medicine has a child probably almost painful with the woman......” “根据维斯格德里的试验记录,服用前药大概和女人生孩子差不多痛……” Roy was silent, in the brain automatic „has a child these words shielding woman”. He starts to suspect can oneself be able to support. 罗伊沉默了,脑子里自动把“女人生孩子”这句话给屏蔽掉。他开始怀疑自己能不能撑得住。 5.8 Will, 5.5 are Constitution, higher than the average men? Should not have the issue? 5.8的意志,5.5的体质,比常人高一些？应该没问题？ „Viper School nearly 20 years have not produced the fresh blood. Words that this time Trial of the Grasses is defeated again......” “蝮蛇学院已经近二十年没有产生新鲜血液。这一次青草试炼再失败的话……” The Letho tone lowers gradually, the warm heavy/thick palm will cover on his shoulder, seems contains some mysterious strength, making his mood rapidly calm. „Therefore, I hope that you show the courage, before drinking the next, medicine.” 雷索语气渐低,将温热厚重的手掌覆盖到了他的肩膀上,好似蕴含着某种神奇的力量,让他情绪迅速镇定下来。“所以,我希望你拿出勇气,喝下前药。” „In fact as scheduled, before you first used , the medicine time in six months,” in the Letho eye also has the doubts, „perhaps you were a little precocious, physique a half year reached my standard ahead of time.” “实际上按照原计划,你初次使用前药的时间是在半年以后,”雷索眼中也有疑惑,“或许你有点过于早熟,身体素质提前半年达到了我的标准。” Roy knows certainly the reason, the ordinary person may not have Attribute Points. 罗伊当然知道原因,普通人可没有属性点。 „ Do not shoulder too heavy psychological burden, gives you two days of time to prepare again. „ “别背负太重的心理负担,再给你两天时间准备。“ „Can not drink?” “能不喝吗？” „Un?” “嗯？” „I crack a joke.” Roy smiles reluctantly, on the face restored blood-color, matter had arrived this step, where also had the leeway of regret, let alone this during his plan, he chose Witcher this road, must support again painfully. “我开玩笑的。”罗伊勉强一笑,脸上恢复了一点血色,事情已经来到这一步,哪里还有后悔的余地,何况这本来就在他的计划之中,他选择了猎魔人这条路,再痛苦也要撑下去。 The first medicine can increase the Trial of the Grasses survival rate, how can not drink? 前药能增加青草试炼的生存率,怎能不喝？ „Does not need to wait again for two days, is today.” “不需要再等两天,就是今天。” Under nursing of Witcher, Roy takes down potion to sway gently, but has not taken immediately, but squats to sit in the place starts Meditation, removes the distracting thoughts, relaxes the body and mind. 在猎魔人的看护下,罗伊取下一支药剂轻轻摇晃,但并没有立即服用,而是蹲坐于地开始冥想,排除杂念,放松身心。 After a half hour, the energy fully restores, he shot a look at bell in a room to take down the time, „bo”, pushed aside the cork calmly, the eyelid did not wink to do! 半小时后,精力完全恢复,他瞥了一眼房间里的钟记下时间,“啵”的一声,从容地扒开了软木塞,眼皮不眨一口干下！ In a flash, the pain, the fishy smell and salty three flavors occupied his sense of taste., 一瞬间,浓浓的苦、腥、咸三种味道占据了他味觉。, It seems one to swallow the oyster and fresh pork, brings the herbal medicine of soil freshly, even if potion slides from the lip radulas, directly enters the esophagus and stomach. That strange flavor still keeps in the mouth meaningfully, lingers. 好似一口咽下牡蛎、生猪肉,新鲜带着泥土的草药,哪怕药剂只是从唇齿舌之间一滑而过,直接进入食道、胃部。那古怪的味道依然隽永地留在口腔中,经久不散。 His facial features wrinkled one group, the double fist closely curled up in the chest front, the whole body starts cannot help but to tremble. 他五官皱成了一团,双拳紧紧蜷在胸前,浑身开始不由自主地发抖。 The drug efficacy then starts. 药效这才开始。 Fermentation moment of solution in mouth, broke in the brain along the nasal cavity, Roy felt oneself hit a wall directly, the instantaneous consciousness turned the supercilious look fuzzily and self-effacingly, sat the vertical Meditation stance to be scattered instantaneously, fell to the ground. 药液在口腔中发酵片刻,又沿着鼻腔冲入了大脑,罗伊感觉自己迎头撞上一堵墙,瞬间意识模糊、摇头晃脑地翻起了白眼,坐立的冥想姿态瞬间被打散,一头栽倒在地。 What is more fearful was the solution had some strange chemical reaction in the stomach, the release the great quantity heat, in the chests and bellies became boiling hot incomparable, like having a stove is barbecuing, must roast ripe him, burns and fires the ashes. 更可怕的是药液在胃部发生了某种奇怪的化学反应,释放出巨量的热,胸腹之间变得滚烫无比,如同有一个火炉在熏烤,要把他烤熟、烤焦、烧成灰烬。 The body instinct makes his ten fingers scratch in the ice-cold hard grounds desperately, about is tumbling, disseminates the heats, shutting tightly the double pupil complexion flood is red and tight, just like falls into the nightmares. 身体本能让他十指拼命地在冰冷坚硬的地面抓挠,左右翻滚着,将热量散播出去,紧闭双眸面色泛红、绷紧,犹如陷入噩梦。 Also passed the moment, finally painful to pinnacle, he opens the full eyes fiercely, in the pupil covers entirely the blood threads, in the throat sends out terrifying hoarse cry. The necks and temples and thick blood vessels stick out unusually, distortion. 又过了片刻,终于痛到了极致,他猛地睁开满双眼,眸中布满血丝,喉咙里发出骇人的的沙哑叫声。脖子和太阳穴、一条条粗大的血管异样地隆起、扭曲。 Witcher squats side him, the entire journey expression has not changed, but in amber brown pupil has the color of recollection faintly. 猎魔人蹲在他身边,全程表情没有丝毫变化,只是琥珀色的瞳孔中隐隐有回忆之色。 „Hang there, Boy, you boil for a long time, is the pain, the harvest is bigger.” “坚持住吧,小鬼,你熬得越久,越是痛苦,收获就越大。”
