Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1671

"Hold on a second! You said you wouldn't take as many fourth-grade low-rank spiritual herbs, but you just took two thousand sprigs!" Theodore's eyes widened when Severin took 2,000 fourth-grade low-rank spiritual herbs. Their stock was instantly depleted, and he wondered if there was something wrong with his eyes.

Severin smiled and reassured him, "Don't worry. I won't let these spiritual herbs go to waste. We alchemists will be the first to feel heartbroken if we fail to use them properly."

With another wave of his hand, Severin selected 2,000 fourth-grade medium-rank spiritual herbs.

"Why do you take another two thousand fourth-grade medium-rank ones?" Theodore was taken aback by Severinn's choices. Other alchemists typically took between 200 to 300 sprigs, a modest sum that made Severin's seem downright excessive.

Severin smiled and proceeded to choose 300 fourth-grade high-rank spiritual herbs. He reasoned, "I need these because I'd like to try and refine some fourth-grade high-rank pills. Three hundred should suffice. I won't take too much of them. I plan to refine some fourth-grade low-rank and medium-rank pills to distribute to the disciples."

Theodore gulped and said, "How incredible! But even with this many spiritual herbs, you'll probably need several months to use it all."

Severin grinned and explained, "I won't need that long. My cauldron is triple-chambered, capable of producing three pills in one go. This makes it much more efficient than regular cauldrons. Besides, I'm quite skilled at crafting fourth-grade low-rank and medium-rank pills, so I'm pretty okay when it comes to my crafting speed."

Theodore was in awe of Severin's prowess.
