Chapter 590: 190. Teleport anomaly_2
: 190. Teleport anomaly_2
Surprise and memory flashed in Noland Lee’s eyes.
He suddenly thought of the half-meter-high small tree placed in Erica’s office. The tree in his hand, the size of a little finger, could be said to be exactly the same as that one, with the former being an enlarged version of the latter.
So, what are these two trees called?
Kalandi gave the answer.
“This is a 1-year Longevity Elixir,” Kalandi said.
“Longevity… Elixir?” Noland raised an eyebrow, “So this is the Longevity Elixir~”
“Yes, that’s right.” Kalandi pushed up her glasses on the bridge of her nose:
“Take it directly, and you can extend your lifespan by one month. You can also save it for later use. How to deal with it is up to you. If you want to wait for its years to grow a little more before taking it, I happen to have some magic materials for cultivating Longevity Elixirs. The price of these magic materials is calculated based on the cultivation cycle. To cultivate a Longevity Elixir for one year, it costs 100,000 gold coins to purchase magic materials. Before I teleport away, you can come to me at any time to purchase magic materials, and I’ll give you a small discount.”
100,000 gold coins… for one year of cultivation…
Noland quickly calculated.
The conversion rate of the Longevity Elixir’s year to potency is 12:1, meaning that for every increase of 1 year, the user’s lifespan can be extended by 1 month.
It is equivalent to using 100,000 gold coins to purchase one month of lifespan.
Transparent pricing, honest to all ages.
No wonder the magic textbook says that many natural system wizard forces have made their fortunes from magical elixirs such as Longevity Elixirs. The other magical elixirs also have better effects as their years grow longer.
For now, Noland doesn’t need to worry about his own lifespan, as that is something for elderly wizards to consider.
“I’ll just take this elixir directly, ma’am,” Noland put the elixir into his bag.
Kalandi was not surprised. She glanced at the room floor full of glass bottles, picked up a potion and handed it to Noland:
“This is for Denise Green, a potion that can moisturize dry skin, suitable for both oral and external use.”
“Thank you.” Noland smiled at her, chatting with her for a while about magical elixirs, before leaving with the gifts.
Because of Rebirth Magic Power, Denise didn’t have to worry about her lifespan. Naturally, Noland had control of the Longevity Elixir he had just received.
According to Kalandi, the public sale price of a 1-year Longevity Elixir is 10,000 gold coins.
However, the cost of cultivating a Longevity Elixir reaches 100,000 gold coins per year.
Can there be a loophole in this?
For instance, by repeatedly taking a 1-year Longevity Elixir, to continuously extend one’s lifespan by one month.
The answer is no.
For the same type and same year of Magical Elixir, it only takes effect the first time it is taken.
After taking a 1-year Longevity Elixir, one must take a Longevity Elixir longer than 1-year to extend their lifespan again. The extended lifespan will still be converted based on 1 year = 1 month.
After returning to his room, Noland gave the skin-moisturizing potion to Denise, while he himself sat in a chair and took the Longevity Elixir.
Peeling off the stopper, holding the bottle upright, and aiming the opening at his mouth. The green light ball and the small tree inside the bottle were inhaled into Noland’s mouth like fumes.
A cool and refreshing feeling spread from the esophagus throughout the whole body. When his mind became icy, Noland received a system message.
[You have consumed “Longevity Elixir (1 year)”].
[Your lifespan has been extended by 1 month, now it is 21/83.08].
1 divided by 12 is approximately 0.0833.
This little bottle of elixir has visibly increased the upper limit of his lifespan by just a little bit.
Noland chuckled, then suddenly discovered that the system message in his mind hadn’t ended.
[You have dealt fatal damage to the “Longevity Elixir (1 year)”].
[Passive Deconstruction Activated!]
[You have obtained the target’s Panel Information.]
[You have obtained a reward of 10,000 Energy Points.]
Noland was slightly taken aback but immediately understood after a pat on his head.
Eating and drinking-related actions do indeed trigger Passive Deconstruction. It’s just that the energy point reward from eating and drinking had always been too small for Noland to notice.
Now, drinking a 1-year Longevity Elixir has given him a full 10,000 Energy Points. This just happens to supplement Noland’s energy point reserve, which could be considered an unexpected joy.
This event brought an inspiration to Noland.
With the “Strong Metal Fusion” Meditation Method at his disposal, he can control his energy points below the upper limit. So how to deal with emergencies that require a large amount of energy?
Of course, it is to store as many magic potions and elixirs as possible that can provide energy. Carrying some easily crushed or shattered magical items on his person could also have the same effect.
When energy points are needed, take the potions or destroy the magical items on the spot, and large amounts of energy can be obtained through passive deconstruction.
I really am a genius…
Noland shook his head with an empty glass bottle in his hand, sighing.
Denise sat at the bedside, thinking Noland was reminiscing about the taste of the Longevity Elixir, and curiously asked,
“Does it taste good? What flavor is it?”
Noland came back to reality, chuckled, and said,
“It felt like drinking ice water, quite comfortable. But after drinking it, I don’t feel any different, and I’m not sure if my lifespan has been extended…”
The two chatted in the room.
One hour had just passed since Noland’s meeting with Selena, and their door was knocked on.
