Tong Hua surveyed the room he had chosen for his Alchemy Workshop, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
The room was about thirty square meters, its walls built of warm gray stone bricks. With the lights and the sunlight streaming through the long, narrow windows high on the walls, it did not feel dim at all.
The air conditioning and fresh-air system serving the wine cellar and the entire house also kept the basement from feeling too stuffy. Even living in it would certainly have been no hardship.
Tong Hua took a deep breath in satisfaction. Beside him, Hattrem had helped bring over Wooloo wool and some other commonly used materials.
"Hattrem!
Hurry, hurry! Brew a potion that can turn me back into a human!"
Tong Hua could not help laughing at Hattrem's impatience.
"Don't rush.
I'm still just a beginner. If even a witch several hundred years old like you can't do it, how could it be that easy for me?
At least give me some time to study first. How can I expect to reach the top in one leap when I haven't even mastered the basics?"
Hearing Tong Hua say this, Hattrem pouted, unconvinced.
"Not having the ability to do something and having the ability but not wanting to do it are two different things!
All right, all right, stop wasting time. Your basics aren't good enough, right? I'll teach you!
But no complaining about how hard or tiring it is! Hattrem!"
As Tong Hua took Hattrem as his teacher and began formally studying the basics of alchemy, something very interesting was happening on the Pasture on the other side of the Ranch.
"What do you mean, the two of you accidentally sat on Miltank's bed and collapsed it?"
Mu Mu looked at the red-faced Lümei and Huangyao
