Well, happy April Fool's Day~~
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
In a blink of an eye, Meilin stayed at Grandma Qi for nearly two weeks. It is now early April, and the breath of spring is gradually becoming rich, fresh branches and sparse vegetation are beginning to grow, and the earth is gradually changing into green clothes.
On that day, Meilin asked Grandma Qi to say goodbye, and Grandma Qi seemed to have expected that he would have resigned, and also gave Meilin a graduation exam question.
The question is very simple. Just make a perfect juice medicine by following the prescription of Grandma Qi. There is no limit on the time and number of times to make this juice medicine... In short, there is no limit on everything. Whenever Merlin succeeds, she can carry her backpack and set off again.
It sounds simple, but when Meilin picked up the prescription that was densely packed with about forty medicinal herbs, she still felt a numbness in her scalp. This prescription handwritten by Grandma Qi only lists the special treatment requirements and dosages of each medicinal herb and medicinal herbs needed for juice medicine, but did not write the name of the prescription or inform the efficacy of Meilin's prescription.
At the same time, Grandma Qi also specifically instructed Meilin, "Don't think about asking me anything after getting the prescription. You can solve all the problems yourself, and you can figure out what you don't understand." At that time, she held her hands behind her back and said in a difficult manner, "I have not specified how long you can take, and how many times you can make it for me, so it's all up to your own means."
After saying that, Grandma Qi took Taozi and Long Tai to work on her own business. Before leaving, both apprentices looked at Meilin with complicated expressions. It was obvious that they were looking forward to the outstanding Meilin's success and expect Meilin's failure. In short, they wrote all the entanglements on their faces.
After getting the test questions, Meilin immediately took action. However, he did not rush to start making medicines, but began to analyze the medicinal properties of the medicinal materials one by one, sort out the coordination between each medicinal material, and more importantly - to study the specific efficacy of the entire prescription.
Mei Lin knew and knew about the medicinal materials in the prescription. The rest were not those that Mei Lin was not very familiar with, but some medicinal materials that Mei Lin didn't know at all. Therefore, the first difficulty in front of Mei Lin was to find out and understand those unknown medicinal materials. Mei Lin first began to read the medicinal books he had. After a morning of struggle, he almost turned over several medicinal books and finally found only seven or eight kinds of unknown medicinal materials in the prescriptions, and there were almost a dozen left. In desperation, Mei Lin had to ask Grandma Qi for help, hoping to borrow Grandma Qi's heavy ancient books to see if he could find out the true appearance of the remaining unknown medicinal materials.
Although Grandma Qi did not give Meilin any help, she still kindly agreed to Meilin's request to borrow her medicine book. After carrying out a thick stack of old ancient books from Grandma Qi, Meilin began to sail in the sea of books again.
This time, while flipping the book, Merlin started another process - that is, to process medicinal materials. Many of the medicinal materials that have been clearly understood in the prescription specifically indicate unique treatment methods, such as honey, fried, and fired. While reading ancient books, Merlin started the process of medicinal materials. In order to save time, Merlin specially called Vyzel out and asked it to help with some less important tasks, such as taking care of the stove, mastering the heat and some simple processing.
Meilin is probably the kind of person who is more forced and more exploded. In this busy situation, he suddenly felt that he was really impressed. The ancient books he had carefully studied were deeply engraved in his head, and the combination and mixing methods of various medicinal materials became clear in an instant. Every time he found a new medicinal material, a plan for how to deal with medicinal materials and how to match medicinal materials with each other will appear in Meilin's mind. At the same time, the previous plan will be corrected, supplemented or started over.
However, as the medicinal materials continue to become clearer, the prescription becomes even more confusing. The fewer the unknown medicinal materials left, the more Merlin can't see what this prescription is for.
When the information of the last medicinal material emerged from the old paper, the prescription was finally complete, but the effect made Meilin completely confused. Because according to the inferences made by his accumulated knowledge and experience, this prescription was ineffective in the end. The medicinal materials treated with each flavor were put into it and mixed and offset the effective ingredients from each other, and eventually turned into drinks without any special therapeutic effects. Moreover, if there is any deviation during the treatment process, the drug can still turn into poison.
"Well, it probably tastes good." Merlin's face twitched and stared at the prescription, "Is it something I got wrong?"
Merlin, who was trapped in self-doubt, decided to overturn all the previous conclusions and re-define the manufacturing steps of this prescription from scratch from nothing. However, the result of the other time was that they still had no effect, and if one was not good, it would turn into poison.
"Do it again!" Meilin was a little angry. The result of the two consecutive times was that the prescription was ultimately ineffective, which made Meilin very angry. "I don't believe it anymore. Can this potion still be poisonous?!"
But the result of the third time is still the same.
This time, Meilin figured it out, "This prescription is indeed ineffective, but ineffectiveness is its effect." He stood up and began to prepare to make this medicine. "As long as it is handled correctly, the medicinal properties and toxicities of all medicinal materials will be offset from each other, so that they can make a drink without any toxic side effects." Through three deductions, Meilin, who had long remembered the prescription and production steps, put the prescription handwritten by Grandma Qi, casually put the prescription written by Grandma Qi, " Grandma Qi's test is really a circle."
Finally, after understanding the prescription, Meilin began to make medicine. I won’t say much about how he handles each medicinal material. In short, after all the medicinal materials are processed, Meilin finally started the final steps.
Meilin mixed all kinds of pre-treated medicine powders, medicinal materials and potions into a small high-strength glassware, and stuffed corks on it. Two metal conductors were inserted into the medicine liquid. After preparing, he specially called Meli Yang, who was more tacit in cooperation with him. In this way, Meilin began his first attempt to make medicine.
Under Merlin's command, shining electrical energy was released from Melisan's body. These tamed electricity accurately hit the metal conductor on the cork and penetrated into the medicine liquid through the conductor. High-strength electricity was jumping between the two conductors immersed in the slightly turbid light brown medicine liquid. They kept dissociating the active ingredients of various medicinal materials and gradually boiled and became clear.
Whenever there were huge bubbles tumbling in the glass bottle, Meilin would appear very nervous. At that time, he either directed Meli Sheep to increase its strength to make the tumbling more intense to better release the effect of the medicine or to allow Meli Sheep to astring the strength to make the boiling smaller so as not to damage the meli Sheep. However, in just a short minute, Meli Sheep and Meilin were already sweating profusely.
"Increase!" Looking at the slowly rolling medicine in the bottle, Meilin nervously directed Meili Yang, "Slow down, gradually increase."
Meli Yang immediately began to increase the electrical output according to Merlin's command.
The potion in the bottle began to roll even harder, but at the same time, some flocculent deposits appeared.
"Stop." Meilin immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it, "Stop Meli Yang, this time it failed." The appearance of flocs means that the ingredients in the potion have been combined with the bad combination, and it also means that the bottle of potion is already a waste product.
Meli Yang stopped and continued to output electricity, staring at Meilin with big eyes, which seemed to be quite regretful.
"It's okay, you're just taking a break." After comforting Meli Yang for a few words, Meilin began to prepare new medicinal materials to brew the next pharmaceutical.
But the next production was one failure and another failure. The fourth and tenth time... from time to time, the flocs appeared from time to time, and the medicine liquid became turbid. Either the heat was too large to blow up the bottle or the power was insufficient, the opportunity was missed. In short, it was failure and failure again. There is a saying that "failure is the mother of success", but now it seems that the generation of failure is much greater than success, and it is already the Emperor Gaozu who was more than ten lifetimes ago.
However, the repeated failures also gave Merlin a deeper understanding and more skillful mastery of dissociated pharmaceuticals. The failure is gradually delaying, and Merlin is closer to success every time.
On this day, Merlin came for sure success.
"Let's start with Meli Sheep." After these days of intimate getting along and cooperation, Meli Sheep and Mei Lin also became very familiar and tacit. When they heard Meli Sheep's command, Meli Sheep immediately began to output electrical energy.
"...increase...weak...faster...faster...swell...spinning...spinning step by step..." With Meilin's calm instructions, Meiliyang skillfully released electrical energy, and the potions in the bottle also changed just right, "Slow, slower..." It was about to reach the key steps that had been intercepting Meilin for the last few times, Meilin also became nervous, "Meliyang, do you still remember the steps I taught you before?" He looked at Meiliyang beside him.
Meiliyang nodded, and the electricity released from his body suddenly strengthened and then dissipated instantly, suddenly strengthened again and slowly became smaller, and then gradually increased until the peak.
During this period, the potion maintained a good response.
With the electrical output of Meli Sheep, Meilin's heartbeat gradually accelerated. "It's finally the last step. Meli Sheep, output slowly. Follow my orders to prepare to withdraw the electrical at any time." Meilin was sweating all over his head, staring at the reaction of the potion.
At this moment, the potion began to rise from the bottom to the top, and the entire bottle of potion began to emit a psychedelic and gorgeous luster.
"It's now." Meilin suddenly shouted.
Meli Sheep immediately converged all the electrical energy.
The tumbling in the bottle began to stop slowly, and the bubbles gradually disappeared, but the gorgeous luster was permanently condensed.
"Hu~~~" Mei Lin breathed a deep breath when she saw this scene. Her nerves and body, which had been tense for many days, suddenly relaxed. He knew that he had succeeded this time.

The preparation of the potion also means that Merlin's brief career in pharmacy apprenticeship came to an end.
Meilin did not rush to take the made potion to ask Grandma Qi for judgment. He continued to work hard to make several of the same potions with Meli Yang. When he tasted the indescribable wonderful taste of this potion, Meilin and Meli Yang seemed very happy.
After sending Meli Yang back to rest, Meilin returned to her hut and started packing her luggage and preparing to hand over the medicine, she said goodbye to Grandma Qi.
[Hey, don't forget that there is another thing.] Vyzel suddenly spoke at this time. In order to make Merlin highly concentrate on creating potions, Vyzel remained silent during this period.
"Is there anything else?" Merlin asked deliberately, but his eyes floated to the Kati Dog, who was lying on his pillow and taking a nap. The little guy could hardly see the traces of his dying wounds. Even the hairs that had been peeled off on his body have grown back.
[What do you think?] Vyzel also pretends to be confused by Merlin.
"Okay, I'll fix it." Merlin smiled slightly and continued to pack her luggage.
When everything was neatly done, everything that should be taken was put into the backpack, everything that should be left was carefully arranged neatly, and what should be returned was carefully returned to the side. After Merlin sat down at the slightly simple single bed, stretched out her hand to caress the body of the Katie dog. The soft hair felt very delicate. However, Merlin could still touch the scars from the grave and the stitched needle holes from the hair. These traces would probably last for a lifetime.
Merlin's touch made the Kati very useful. The close side of the Kati dog who had accepted his was gradually revealed. It began to twist its butt and make a comfortable "whip" sound.
Merlin suddenly became playful and began to look for sensitive places in the Katie dog to itch it.
After a while, the Kati dog's slight twisting turned into a large twist and dodge, kicking his limbs back and forth, and his tail was also shaking back and forth with the shaking of his body, and there were still pleasing screams in his mouth.
After playing like this for a while, the Kati dog lay on Merlin's thigh and screamed comfortably, his ears twitched back and forth, and his tail was slightly swinging.
Merlin, who was attracted by his passive ears, began to gently scratch the inner part of the Katie's ear with his fingers, causing the Katie to start twisting again.
"Lygenin, do you want to travel with me?" asked softly while teasing Carti Dog Merlin.
The Kati dog raised his head and looked at Merlin with a pair of watery big eyes.
"Are you willing to travel with me, or stay here, or return to your place of life?" Merlin continued to ask softly, "Well, although we have been together for more than half a month, I still respect your own choice."
The Kati continued to look at Merlin.
[Ah...] Suddenly, Vyzel sighed heavily, [How many times do I want to tell you before you will remember?] It said with a little depressedness, [Not all monsters can fully understand your human language, especially wild monsters. If you want to communicate with them through language, you have to be more straightforward.]
[Take it away directly~] Lingzi also got involved in trouble, [It is so small and so cute and always likes to circle around me, so just take it away.]
[Hmph, anyway, this weak guy has long been unable to live without you, so why should you pretend to be silly and ask questions in a blatant way.] Heip also interrupted, [Your actions are more like a hypocritical way, just to be at ease with yourself]
When Merlin heard Heip's speech, she smiled bitterly. However, Lingzi started arguing with Heip.
"Okay, that's it." Ignoring their argument, Merlin bent down and put the Kati dog on the ground. He immediately squatted down and shook his tail slightly, looking up at Merlin.
Merlin stood up, carried his backpack and took out a high-end ball from his arms that had been decorated and painted with color schemes. After enlarging it, he went straight to the tip of the Kati Dog's nose. The Kati Dog immediately came forward and tapped the high-end ball with his nose, allowing the red light to restrain it.
"Please give me some advice in the future." Seeing that Carti Dog was subdued by the high-level ball with a little joy, Merlin completely relaxed.

First announce the answer to the previous issue: In fact, the concept of tree fruit was first introduced in the second generation game - that is, gold and silver crystal -. In the second generation, tree fruits that can restore HP appeared for the first time. Later, they were developed in the third generation (red, blue, green, and fiery red, leaf green).
Then this issue's question: In the introduction of the picture book, the evolutionary wind speed dog of the Kati dog once mentioned a country in the real world. Which country is it?
