Chapter 660: Chapter 352: Pet Shop Daily Routine_1

The next morning at the pet shop.

As Lin Xue was recuperating, the shop was only open for half a day in the afternoon for the time being.

While having the morning off, Little Ya still arrived at the shop early as usual, currently shining the Evolution Light on the pets in the space.

Mu You was crafting magic potions at the alchemy table in the corner.

Underneath the Crucible Frame, a small Fire Spirit constantly emanated a steady heat. The crucible above gradually started to emit white smoke under the simmering fire.

Mu You held a glass rod and stirred in the white smoke, keeping it in a spiral shape and slowly spreading outwards. His skilled movements would win praise from anyone in the know, since he had just practiced this action thousands of times in the last few seconds and was adept at it now.

After a while, under Mu You’s control, the flame overhead of the Fire Spirit gradually shrunk, and a small blob of viscous liquid inside the crucible finally took shape amidst the swirling smoke.

Mu You carefully manipulated the crucible using the Levitation Spell and poured the boiling Magic Potion into a frosty blue cooling tube nearby.

Only after all this did he sigh and check the potion information with the Omniscient Crystal.

[Aphasia Potion (Rare): After taking it, the user will lose the ability to speak for a while.]

This potion was specially prepared by Mu You for the mermaid.

The mermaid previously sang to help him subdue the Octopus King in the Evil Spirit Sea Area, causing serious damage to her throat. At that time, Mu You thought about whether he could use magic potions to help her recover.

This Aphasia Potion will make people lose their voice for a while. Although it seems to be incompatible with her condition, this potion has a hidden advantage, that is, it will make the vocal cords stronger and the user’s voice clearer and more pleasant after the effect wears off.

Therefore, many singers will take this potion a few days in advance of important performances to enhance their performance.

After discussing with Vivian, Mu You found that this magic potion may be effective for her condition. The mermaid does not require healing which results in re-injury after using her voice once. To permanently regain her voice, it is necessary to fundamentally enhance the strength of her vocal cords.

This potion is only a third-order magic potion, which is not difficult in itself, but one of the main ingredients is ’Bitter Shell’, known as the hardest shell in the world. Even with the help of the Fire Spirit, it would still demand a long time to boil this shell into liquid state.

Previously, Mu You used the longest time of the Pocket Watch and Fool’s Card, and it still couldn’t satisfy the minimum duration for making this potion. But now, with the upgrade, each Fool’s Boundary lasts for an hour. This is finally enough to normally refine the potion.

Packing up the materials on the table, Mu You took the Aphasia Potion and walked to the lakeside, blowing a whistle towards the quiet lake surface.

A few seconds later, the mermaid popped her head out from the middle of the lake. Mu You waved at her and she finally swam towards the shore.

"A potion to heal your throat."

Mu You gave it to her,"Remember, don’t swallow it, keep it in your mouth and let it dissipate by itself."

The mermaid lay on the shore, looking suspiciously at the blue bottle in Mu You’s hand. She carefully took it, sniffed it, and showed a disgusted expression at the pungent smell. Her intuition told her that this thing wouldn’t taste good.

However, under the gaze of Mu You, she hesitated for a while but then poured the potion into her mouth.

"Umm..."

The result was even worse than she imagined. The unique bitterness of the Bitter Shell fully exploded in her mouth. The mermaid’s face wrinkled into a ball, she looked exceedingly pained and instinctively wanted to spit it out.

"Don’t spit it out, the materials in this tube are very expensive." Mu You quickly exclaimed.

Although the mermaid was suffering, she knew that this was beneficial for her. Hence, she had to continue tilting her head back, maintaining her painful expression. After about a minute, the potion in her mouth finally dissipated completely.

"Well done, one tube of potion can be effective for about six days. Come once a week, after one course of treatment, you can basically speak normally again." Mu You nodded in satisfaction.

The mermaid had no time to listen to his rambling. After finishing the potion, she immediately returned to the lake to rinse her mouth.

Mu You didn’t care either, turning his head to look at a big tree about ten meters away.

At that time, Ye Rumeng was hiding behind the tree, peeking out to watch the interaction between him and the mermaid.

Seeing the bottle in Mu You’s hand, the young girl’s eyes sparked with curiosity.

"Why hide so far away? If you’re curious, come and see." Mu You said to her.

The little girl quickly shook her head and hid behind the tree again.

It took her more than ten seconds to stick her head out again and asked with a puzzled expression, "Don’t you guys have to drink gasoline all the time?"

"Still wondering about that..."

Mu You smiled, "How do you know that I haven’t drunk it?"

"I’ve looked everywhere, there are no cans of gasoline at home!" Ye Rumeng said with all seriousness.

"Gasoline? That’s so old school! Now everything runs on magic energy!"

"So that’s how it is!"

Ye Rumeng was surprised, as though she had obtained some important info, quickly taking out a small notebook and started writing and drawing on it.

Mu You laughed and ignored her. He took out his phone and logged in to the game.

[You appear in the Elf Forest...]

The cooldown for the Elf Horn ended last night, and Mu You blew it promptly.

However, the Elf mission that came out this time was somewhat disappointing.
