Kyuuuu!
Instantly, Luna revealed her shining teeth and revealed a big smile, the fish disappearing within seconds.
Liam was curious to see how many stats she would gain. The little fox was after all a celestial grade beast so she probably received more benefits?
And bingo! He was right!
He had only received +1 and Luna was getting +5!
He hurriedly opened her status page to take a look.
[Ding]
[Name: Pet1, Luna]
[Level: 16]
[Type: Spirit beast (Evolution possible)]
[Grade: Celestial]
"Why are you so mysterious Luna? What stats do you have? You won't show me?" Liam lifted the fox by her tail and shook her playfully.
As if being high on the fish she had just eaten, the little fox as well laughed giddily.
"Heh. I will play with you later. I really need to do some work now." While everyone was busy fighting for their lives, it was ironic that he had already spent several hours just playing.
Liam tossed the fox aside and started arranging everything to study the recipe one more time.
He spent a couple of hours thinking about how he could make the compound more stable and prevent it from disintegrating and falling apart at the last step which was his main issue.
In fact, this was typically the main problem with most potions since it was only at the end when everything, all the separate ingredients come together to combine and become something new which was the basis of alchemy.
He mulled over this for another hour and then stopped for a few minutes. He was once again at a standstill and was not making any progress.
"Ok, I should learn and practice more recipes." He took out the recipe scrolls and learned everything one after the other. Some of them were easy but some of them were difficult.
"Hmm… Hopefully, this should improve my skills a bit more." Liam cracked his knuckles and started working on the new recipes.
He first went through the recipes and made sure he understood the process and the reason why certain herbs were used for certain recipes.
He had already sunk a few hours in now so after a few more minutes, he was completely exhausted.
Liam fell back, lying down on the grassy garden, and stared at the sky. "I should just take a nap."
"Hmmm. Maybe I will try drinking that pond water. That was very refreshing. Maybe it can recover mental fatigue or help me concentrate?"
Liam excitedly took out a canister and decided to check out the water as well.
He only checked out the fish before and since the fish was very special, the water it was swimming in was also special?
He opened the cap and took a small gulp. Almost instantly, the mental tiredness that he had accumulated so far disappeared.
He felt invigorated as if he had just woken up from a 12-hour sleep!
Even though it did not give him any stat boosts, this was also a very good item. "I guess time to get back to work." Liam chuckled wryly as he peered over the recipes again.
But a few seconds later, he lifted up his head to look at the small pond not too far away from him. That's right! He also had a pond, didn't he?!
"I never checked out that pond." Liam clicked his tongue. The little fox was playing inside it all the time but he didn't think of it as anything special.
But now after seeing the other pond, he wondered if this could be anything good?
