Fantasy Lord: Beginning with Daily Intelligence-Chapter 207 - 149: Acquiring Territory, Territory Expansion
The Life Potion plays a significant role in Thor’s upcoming plans, whether it’s in developing his own power or in expanding the influence of the Eagle Merchant Association.
In Knight’s Training, if one wants to progress rapidly, Life Potions are almost indispensable.
For those with average talent, without relying on Life Potions, it might take forty to fifty years to possibly condense a Life Seed and become an Apprentice Knight.
With the support of a Life Potion, even just a Low-Level Life Potion, the speed of condensing a Life Seed can increase by at least half, potentially taking less than twenty years.
This is for someone with average talent; for those with strong talent, the speed is even faster.
Just like Reine back then.
Although it was because of the Intermediate Life Potion, a Low-Level Life Potion naturally wouldn’t have the same effect, but even with some disparity, for the cultivation of a knight with High-Level Talent, reducing ninety-nine percent of the training time is inevitable.
More importantly, a Low-Level Life Potion is still significantly useful for an Apprentice Knight breaking through to become an Official Knight.
Accelerating the time to breakthrough as an Official Knight also means speeding up the time to breakthrough to become a Great Knight.
Not to mention indirectly increasing the possibility of breaking through to become an Earth Knight, merely speeding up becoming a Great Knight is enough to attract countless nobles from the Northern Province.
This is also why at the Loren City auction, ten bottles of Low-Level Life Potions could sell for up to three thousand Gold Coins.
The Eagle Merchant Association wants to quickly open the entire Western Trade Route and establish its own trade route during this period, and Life Potions are undoubtedly the best choice.
As for Silver Armor, honestly, the Northern Province probably doesn’t lack it.
Especially during this period, where various powerful lords are dumping Silver Armor, it’s expected to remain saturated for some time.
Unless a war breaks out, consuming these weapons and armor to break this saturation.
But that’s quite difficult.
The West isn’t at the forefront of conflicts with the Beastman Tribe; even past turmoil had limited impact on the West, let alone other times.
However, to use Life Potions as a breakthrough point, Thor also needs to ensure the production of Life Potions can be sustained.
It’s been almost a month now, and Thor wants to see how the three pharmacists are progressing.
In the study.
Listening to Thor’s inquiries.
Christine couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous.
"Speak!"
"Don’t worry, it’s just the beginning, no need to rush!"
Seeing Christine’s nervous expression, Thor couldn’t help but shake his head but still offered some reassurance.
"Lord, currently, the production success rate of Life Potions should have reached ten percent."
"I, I can barely reach twenty percent!"
"As for production, with sufficient materials, I should be able to produce a bottle in two days. With a bit more time, I think it can improve. Previously, in the Frost Moon Province, we used Crystal Flowers instead of Agate. I’m confident we can adjust soon."
Hearing Thor’s words, Christine felt slightly relieved and spoke with a hint of embarrassment.
Christine felt a bit embarrassed.
Here, Thor not only provided them with ample materials but also gave them the opportunity to learn Magic. Yet their progress seemed less than ideal.
Reaching only one bottle every two days made her feel a bit ashamed.
"Two days per bottle?"
Thor raised an eyebrow in surprise.
With Christine’s expression, he had lowered his expectations, but it was not as bad as he thought.
Being able to produce a bottle every two days was unexpected.
It might not seem like much.
But considering it’s the result of a formula change.
There are multiple formulas for Low-Level Life Potions; other than the Life Grass Seed, there were several options for the primary material.
Agate is a specialty of the Northern Province, something the Frost Moon Province lacked, relying on Crystal Flowers as one of the main materials.
Christine’s current formulation required her to become familiar with it again, a challenging process.
After less than a month, Thor was prepared for needing ten days to produce a single bottle.
Yet it became possible to produce one bottle in two days.
A First Grade according to the previous auction prices was at least two hundred Gold Coins, sometimes reaching as high as three hundred Gold Coins.
At that rate, his monthly income could reach at least three thousand Gold Coins.
However, due to the growth issues of Life Seeds, it wouldn’t reach this figure, but even with discrepancies, earning over a thousand Gold Coins wouldn’t be a problem — that’s ten thousand Gold Coins a year.
"Lord, it should be soon."
"In just a few more days, we should be able to ensure a daily production of one bottle!"
Thor’s silence made Christine misunderstand, and she quickly spoke up determinedly.
"Oh, you can achieve one bottle a day now?"
Thor was a bit surprised, his eyes immediately turning to Christine, a hint of danger in his pupils.
He didn’t want problems arising just as the territory was starting to develop.
"Lord, I’ve been meditating during this time. I can pause my cultivation and focus entirely on improving. I believe it’s possible!"
