Upon hearing Lan Qingyou's announcement, everyone who had previously been afraid to look up now raised their heads.
Witch potions, given away for free!
Could there really be such a good thing?
Those who were just worrying about being kicked out felt their hearts pounding at this news.
That's right.
Though Lan Qingyou stated the cost, what did a mere 600 milliliters of blood matter to them?
Becoming a witch was the key!
Even though the World Channel was full of nonsense about what ingredients were used in the Witch potion and how it would lead to being controlled...
Since they had chosen to come to the Witch's Forest, they didn't care about that kind of rubbish.
Besides.
So what if they were controlled? No one even knew if that was true.
Even if it were true, they couldn't possibly be controlled forever. Think of the mental drain required to pull that off!
When the rumors first started, everyone had been a bit uncertain.
But recently, after seeing witches wearing robes and pointed hats emerging from the teleportation circles one by one, they realized that life as a witch seemed pretty good.
They were even able to bring their own shelters over.
Though they didn't know what method these witches used to bring the magic desks out from their shelters...
It undoubtedly cleared many of the doubts in their hearts.
One of the laws of this world was that as long as you weren't dead, your magic desk would not disappear.
If the magic desk didn't disappear, the shelter wouldn't disappear.
At most, it would become run down due to a lack of maintenance and the depletion of energy points, but it could still be used with some repairs.
Now, if they became witches, wouldn't they also be able to bring their own shelters here?
While the stilt houses they built themselves were comfortable, no matter how cozy they were, they couldn't compare to the shelters that had accompanied and protected them since the beginning of the transmigration.
Moreover, some witches said they even possessed special privileges.
Specifically, as long as they learned how to build the magic circle that currently protected them, they could choose any location in the Abandoned Land to set up a magic circle with a diameter of one hundred meters for their own shelter.
Furthermore, all the construction materials could be borrowed directly from the Witch Academy. You only needed to repay the loan within ten years in any form of materials or currency.
Good grief!
This loan was practically a giveaway, and they could even choose their own location.
Those who liked howling snow could go to the Abandoned Mountains; those who liked the vast sea could go to the Abandoned Coast; and those who preferred the tranquility of a flowing creek could choose a spot by a stream.
Of course, for convenience, they could also live on the outskirts of the cities currently under construction, like the Abandoned City, the Witch's Forest, or the Abandoned Harbor.
They didn't have to pay land tax, and the materials were even prepared for them—it was truly a one-stop service!
Becoming a witch was a total gold mine.
Even the scum of District 666—whether they were tall and sturdy, heavily tattooed, menacing, or shrewd and cunning—were moved.
"Me! I'm signing up!"
"Me, me, me!!!"
"Pick me! Pick me!"
What was the fastest way for Blue Star humans to increase their strength?
Evolution, of course!
Most of the people who came to the Witch's Forest or other racial autonomous territories held the hope that they might be able to buy an evolution item.
They just hadn't expected it to happen so quickly, and that the cost would only be blood.
It was simply too cheap.
To be honest, even if they were asked for all their belongings, they would be willing to pay as long as they could get an evolution item.
No!
They couldn't take it for nothing!
Some principled people pulled out their cards, took everything out, and threw it on the ground. Seeing this, others followed suit.
Lan Qingyou immediately had Shang Chuan stop them and then handed the Witch potions to Diana, telling her to select five hundred people.
Drawing 600 milliliters of blood at once on Blue Star would certainly cause problems, but on the Kalim continent, it was fine as long as you had a bottle of Life Potion in hand.
Thus, the collection on Diana's end went very quickly.
In a short while, five hundred Witch potions were exchanged.
Those 500 potions were exchanged for a full 300,000 milliliters of human blood, while she had 3,000 milliliters of Jormungandr's blood.
300,000 milliliters was more than enough to neutralize 3,000 milliliters of Jormungandr's blood. In fact, according to Lan Qingyou's own calculations, there might even be some left over.
To Lan Qingyou's surprise, however, the 300,000 milliliters of blood barely managed to neutralize the 3,000 milliliters.
In the end, the final product Lan Qingyou obtained was only 9,000 milliliters.
Yes.
It had increased!
It went from 3,000 to 9,000—exactly triple.
After all, it was a neutralization process, so it was only normal for the volume to increase.
But counting other blood types, Lan Qingyou would be able to produce enough Witch potions to evolve over 200,000 people.
Brewing potions like this was a bit tiring.
Although Lan Qingyou could have let the golems brew them, she chose not to.
The reason was simple: she wanted to get a little creative with her work.
For example, she wanted to try some cross-mixing.
Adding a bit of Platinum Dragon King's blood to the Jormungandr's blood, or putting some Star Dragon King Essence Blood into the Platinum Dragon King's blood, and so on.
Of course, as the only designated material for the Witch potion, Lan Qingyou's own Origin Witch's blood was also crucial.
Regardless, she was just having fun with it, playing around with different permutations.
In the end, the final products were all Witch potions anyway.
However, Lan Qingyou miscalculated once again.
A Witch potion was still a Witch potion, and drinking it would still cause one to evolve into a witch.
But just as the High Priestess, Vivian, had said before, the focus was completely different.
If the potions made with Star Dragon King Essence Blood leaned toward Spirit and mana, following a magic-based path...
Then the ones made with Platinum Dragon King's blood leaned toward Constitution and Health, making it hard to tell what its specialty was.
But the Witch potions made with Jormungandr's blood were quite bizarre.
They actually favored Agility and mana!
With this kind of stat distribution, I'd believe it if you told me they were for a Magic Archer or a Magic Swordsman, but this is for evolving into a witch!
Was she supposed to expect the witches to charge in to hack people down with blades and swords?
While there were indeed many blade and sword-type magic tools in her warehouse that could be equipped, still... was this really okay?
Yes! It was definitely a good thing!
It was only a brief thought.
Another ten days passed. With Lan Qingyou stopping production of all other potions and using every crucible she had to work day and night, a full 200,000 Witch potions were completed.
This alone showed Lan Qingyou's terrifying potion-making speed.
Of course, this figure of 200,000 was the result after Lan Qingyou had set aside some blood to keep as precious rare materials.
Otherwise, there certainly would have been more than 200,000.
But this was enough—or rather, Lan Qingyou felt it was enough.
