Chapter 65

As the light gathered with Jiang Junming's choice, it fell on the bilateral carpal bones and finger joints of the 3D holographic projection in front of him. The specks of light seeped into the holographic hand and fingers, and Jiang Junming felt a warm current appear in the joints of his hand and fingers, making him feel very comfortable.

After a moment, the light gradually faded in the 3D holographic projection. Jiang Junming moved his fingers, feeling the residual warmth in his hand and fingers, but he didn't seem to notice any changes. However, the first-level upgrade of his wrist joint was the same; he could only clearly feel the significant changes during the surgery.

The scale bar below the holographic projection moved forward a bit, but even after upgrading two joint groups, it still hadn't reached the "1" mark. Jiang Junming was a bit puzzled; there weren't that many joint groups in the human body, so he wondered how many upgrades his body would need before the scale bar reached the end.

Thinking about how he could precisely control a sword, using the strength in his wrist to accurately break through 0.8 cm of skin and muscle and 0.2 cm of bone plate, what would happen if his body was fully upgraded?

As he thought, Jiang Junming felt even more anticipation.

With his perception ability enhanced and two joint groups upgraded to the first level, it must have consumed a lot of energy. Was the AI's energy about to be depleted, and was he about to be teleported out?

"The carpal and finger joint groups have been upgraded." The AI didn't let Jiang Junming leave. It seemed that the energy obtained this time was sufficient to support the AI for a longer period. However, the tone of the AI, which had previously sounded human, changed back to its mechanical, cold, and emotionless voice. It also referred to Jiang Junming as "the subject" instead of "you."

The small tree in front of Jiang Junming began to sway gently, with faint specks of light appearing on the tender green trunk. The leaves of the basic anatomy course swayed as if a gentle breeze was blowing.

Should he continue? Jiang Junming felt a surge of joy. Any changes that could make him stronger were naturally welcome. As he thought, another leaf began to unfurl and grow, and the words "Basic Pharmacology" became clear.

"Begin learning Basic Pharmacology." The AI said, and in front of Jiang Junming, the light began to flicker. The six-sided rectangular space distorted, and with the changing light, a table for preparing potions and some test tubes and flasks on a test tube rack appeared before his eyes.

On the table, a few common herbs were neatly arranged. These herbs were common in the wilderness herbal shop, and Jiang Junming had seen them countless times during his two years there.

"Next, I will explain the preparation of weak healing potions." The AI said.

Unlike the basic anatomy course, which covered knowledge Jiang Junming had learned in school, making him more proficient, the basic pharmacology course didn't explain the basic components of various raw materials or the pharmacological effects of the most basic molecules and particles. Instead, it directly taught Jiang Junming how to prepare potions.

This is quite good, Jiang Junming thought. After learning basic anatomy, he saw that the second leaf was labeled "Basic Pharmacology." At the time, Jiang Junming was a bit worried, fearing that the course would be too abstract, and since this continent had no factories to produce raw materials, would he have to extract them himself? If so, even if he learned it, it would be like a useless skill, and it would also consume the AI's energy.

Seeing that the AI directly taught him how to prepare potions, Jiang Junming felt reassured.

"Weak healing potion, components: Dragon Bone Grass, Ice Red, and Drip Lotus. Dosage..." The AI's voice became cold again, as if it was difficult for the AI to generate emotions when talking about these dry data.

Jiang Junming knew about weak healing potions; they were slightly more advanced than stimulant potions, but only slightly. If stimulant potions were like placebos, then weak healing potions could only treat minor illnesses like colds and flu, and had no effect on more serious diseases. In the market, they sold for a bit more than stimulant potions, about ten copper coins per bottle.

Jiang Junming had once remarked that the name "weak healing potion" was quite fitting, as its effects were indeed weak. He didn't expect that the first lesson in basic pharmacology would be about how to prepare weak healing potions.

Following the AI's instructions, Jiang Junming placed the Dragon Bone Grass in a simple, primitive container. As soon as his hand left, a beam of light began scanning the Dragon Bone Grass. Then, a line of floating numbers appeared in the air, indicating the effective components in the Dragon Bone Grass and the amount of effective components per gram.

This is really advanced, Jiang Junming thought, staring at the container. The simple and primitive container had such advanced functions; it could inspect the effective components and their amounts in the herbs without crushing them, just by scanning them. He couldn't even imagine the specific principles behind it.

Following the AI's instructions, Jiang Junming methodically placed the three herbs into the container one by one, and the container began to extract the effective components. The simple and primitive container had functions such as extraction, distillation, and extraction.

Carefully operating the container, Jiang Junming extracted the effective components of the three herbs and placed them in reagent bottles in front of him. Then, he carefully followed the AI's instructions to mix the effective components of the three herbs, being extremely cautious at every step, afraid of any mistakes.

After mixing and reacting the effective components of the three herbs, a bottle of weak healing potion was finally prepared. Jiang Junming noticed that during this process, his fingers, hand, and wrist, which had been upgraded to the first level, had significantly improved. Although the process was complicated and long, his fingers, hand, and wrist did not tremble at all, and every subtle movement was precise and flawless.

Feeling a bit proud, just then, Jiang Junming heard the AI's mechanical and cold voice, "The potion contains too many impurities. The subject has failed to prepare the potion."

Failed? What did I do wrong? Jiang Junming's mood suddenly darkened. He couldn't even prepare a weak healing potion? And in the AI, there were instruments for extracting and refining the effective components of herbs that others didn't have. This is too unreasonable...

Recalling the process of preparing the potion, Jiang Junming couldn't find where he went wrong.

The new ranking is down, and the future is worrying. Xiao Long can only try his best.
