Chapter 506 Life Should Be Sweet, Sweet, Sweet

Gretel waited eagerly for Viscount Cadren, or other nobles, or other wealthy people to come to see a doctor. ——So what, "I have a friend", everyone knows it.

It's a pity that I waited and waited. The first day passed, the second day passed, the third day passed... and nothing happened. The hospital is still empty, with at most three to five patients coming in every day, and they are still the kind that can be treated with just one shot of treatment.

I don’t know if everyone still needs to inquire more and verify, or if “I have a friend” who is suffering from “what kind of disease”, I am too embarrassed to come to the door and have to wait for the opportunity when there are few people...

In the end, it was my family members who repeatedly asked about the treatment situation at that time.

"So at that time, everyone really said it couldn't be cured?" Cerela asked enthusiastically. Gretel answered for the third time:

"Actually, it's not necessarily that it can't be cured... I guess the limited wishing technique should be able to cure it. Well, I don't know if the medical technique can do it..."

While searching for his own knowledge, he made gestures and explained to Cerela. Thanks to the daily teachings of the Lord of Thunder, Gretel has acquired a lot of fragmented knowledge of high-level magic. There is still something to talk about with Miss Silver Dragon...

The priest's sixth-level spell, medical spell, introduces positive energy to heal diseases and injuries and end the bad conditions suffered by the target. The seventh-level spells of warlocks and wizards, limited wishing spells, can achieve various types of spell effects.

However, based on the principles of magic, Grete felt that medical magic should not be able to cure congenital malformations——

"After all, no matter how you introduce positive energy, your body has already grown like this, and it will still be like this even if it grows again..."

"What about the limited wish-making technique?"

"The limited wishing technique should probably work..." Gretel thought and answered slowly:

"Because what the limited wishing spell achieves is the caster's request, 'I need to make something like this.' If he thinks clearly enough, he should be able to make a wish successfully..."

As long as the practitioner has a clear goal and does not just "let the body grow on its own and grow into what it should be without the interference of disease, poison, or negative energy", if you want to grow an anus, you can still grow an anus. .

Of course, if it is combined with other malformations, such as intestinal atresia, congenital heart disease, esophageal atresia, lack of other organs, etc., then...

If you don't check it out in advance, you may need more than one limited wishing spell...

"But the levels of those two spells are so high!" Cerela thought about it carefully and happily came to the conclusion:

"As for Gretel, you can do it with second- and third-level spells! - So Gretel is the most powerful!"

"This..." Grete sweated profusely. Medicine is never that easy. There are some things that magic cannot do, and neither can modern medicine. Not to mention rare diseases, let’s talk about Alzheimer’s disease…

He really can't do that.

"So when will there be a new patient?" Cerela confirmed Gretel's ability and squatted at the door of the hospital with him, waiting eagerly:

"It's always been bruises, broken skin, bleeding, colds and coughs, etc. The illnesses will be cured as soon as the treatment is applied..."

"This, I don't know this either..."

Alas, the hospital’s level is still not high enough, and its reputation is still not high enough. It's not like in my previous life, when I was in a well-known tertiary hospital in a provincial capital city. As long as I sat there, a steady stream of difficult and complicated diseases would come to my door.

Patients come here out of admiration, are transferred by lower-level hospitals, and are transferred here due to poor treatment in lower-level hospitals... dragging their families with them, thousands of miles away. What needs to be advertised and publicized does not exist.

Miss Yinlong waited and walked around, and the ground at the entrance of the hospital was thinned by her (no, her original shape was not revealed), but she still didn't wait for the patient to come to the door. Out of boredom, she went to drag Gretel back:

"By the way, how do you use all the weird things you bought back at the expo last time? They have been piled there, gathering dust! You said you could make that fruit into something delicious, and I tasted it. When I taste it, it’s very bitter and astringent!”

Grete shook off sweat.

This, that... He came back from the expo and really plunged into research, putting the rare gadgets he bought behind his head. However, you can’t blame him!

Some of these things, such as rubber, he handed over to Mr. Norwood, but he has not yet produced any results;

For example, cinchona bark has no different uses than ordinary tree bark when there is no malaria, as long as it is well preserved;

For example, he has already peeled half of the sunflowers and asked Miss Anivea to find a place to plant them. He hopes that they will produce many seeds in the autumn, and there will be a steady stream of seeds to eat in the future;

As for the cocoa fruit...

"Did you just grind the cocoa beans and eat them?"

"Yes!" Cerela said matter-of-factly:

"I asked the cook to add sugar, milk, and all kinds of other things, but she couldn't get rid of the bitter taste! It tastes terrible!"

"Khan...Serila, this is not how cocoa fruit is eaten! It has to be roasted!"

Grete raised his head from the experimental table in a daze, shaking his head left and right vigorously. Seeing that no patients would come today, he rolled up his sleeves and decided to take a half-day off to change his mind:

"Cerela, let's go! Go back to the Mage Tower!"

Returning to the mage tower, Serela had already killed two of the cocoa fruits purchased earlier. Fortunately, there are still seven or eight left, enough for novices to waste——

Grete opened one of them and found that it had cracks before. Under the constant temperature and humidity of the Mage Tower, the cocoa beans inside had turned into coffee color. Beside her, Serila covered her nose and jumped out:

"Hey! What does it smell like~~~"

There was a sour smell. Strictly speaking, it was the smell of smelly feet in the medical student dormitory in the previous life. Gretel recalled the videos he had watched during the night shift in his previous life, and was satisfied that the fermentation level should be almost complete...

Next is drying!

There's no need for an oven or anything like that. As a magician, you have your own magician's method. Gretel opened four cocoa fruits at once and divided the cocoa beans into four parts.

Three portions were placed aside, waiting to be baked slowly at different temperatures; for the remaining portion, he directly threw a weakened version of [Thirst Touch] over:

Can cause minor drying damage on contact and cause living creatures to lose water. Gretel has recently been practicing this spell to eliminate edema and deal with allergic symptoms such as laryngeal edema.

Although the success rate of practice is not high and the mana output is often too strong, he feels very confident in dealing with these cocoa beans——

success!

The cocoa beans are fully dried!

The outer skin is so dry that it becomes brittle, and when you peel it off, it cracks!

Gretel was so happy that he summoned two invisible servants and peeled off the seed coats of all the cocoa beans. Then let the invisible servants pound it, bake it, pound it even finer, bake it, grind it, bake it a third time...

Until it was ground into a slurry, which looked almost the same as in the video, he added the powdered sugar and stirred thoroughly to combine. In order to make chocolate, a grinder used for making magic potions was even used.

"Are you okay? Are you okay?"

Serira kept turning around. One moment coming up with an idea, the next trying to help:

"Do you want to use Wind Blade Technique to cut?"

"Do you want to heat it up?"

"Would you like some water?—or milk?"

The grinder had been working for a long time. Gretel stopped the machine and poured out the chocolate that had been stirred into liquid form. Without waiting to pour it into the mold, Cerira jumped over and stretched out her finger to scrape on the edge of the grinder:

"Hey, it's much sweeter this time..." She couldn't wait to take a lick:

"But it's still bitter! And it's still astringent! And it's still a little sour! Grete, can you make it more delicious?"

Uh...it seems that the temperature and time of baking and baking need to be controlled well. During the roasting process, will there be a Maillard reaction or some other reaction to eliminate the sour taste of cocoa beans? You cannot take it for granted and use [Thirst Touch] instead...

Gretel paused. He threw the grinder to the silver dragon girl, and she could hold it and eat up all the chocolate, or throw a cleaning spell and clean it directly. I took another portion of cocoa beans and followed the instructions in the video without making any mistakes:

Heat to 60 degrees and dry slowly for 4 hours (leave it to Taling to control, while Grete goes to read a book);

Take it out, let it cool, then adjust to 150 degrees, dry for 20 minutes, turning the beans every 5 minutes;

Let cool for one minute, then adjust to 135 degrees and bake for 5 minutes;

Let cool for another minute, bake for 5 minutes, let cool completely...

"Hey! It doesn't smell sour!"

Cerira jumped over. Don't wait for the beans to cool down, then rub them with your hands. Before Gretel could say "Oh!", she saw the hot beans cracking open in the palm of her white and slender palm, and the outer skin fell off, revealing the dark brown beans inside.

That speed, that efficiency, is much faster than the invisible servant. The scariest thing is that Serila was still smiling from beginning to end!

Okay, the silver dragon's hands... are not comparable to those of humans...

And Cerela doesn't need any crushing, grinding, or grinding machines. She closed her palms together, and with a rustling sound, the cocoa beans turned into powder and fell.

The efficiency was more than 100 times higher than that of Gretel's invisible servant who had to knock and knock again and again.

The only problem is that once the cocoa beans are ground fine enough, the cocoa butter inside will stick the powder together. Now, they are covered with a thick layer on Miss Silver Dragon's hands...

"Gretel? Can you eat it?"

Cerira licked her fingers and found that there was basically no sourness, but a special fragrance, and she quickly urged Grete. Grete looked at her fingers in a daze:

You should pour all the cocoa powder into the pot first!

Now ask me, how should I answer you?

Do you want me to taste it on your hand?

"It should be almost done..." He recalled the color and texture of the cocoa beans after they were fully ground in the video, and commanded unconfidently:

"Add powdered sugar..."

Add plenty of powdered sugar and a few grains of salt to avoid getting cloying later. Gretel set up a large pot, poured milk into it, and brought it to a boil over low heat.

Then, he directed Cerela to pour a little hot milk, melt the chocolate, and pour down half a cup of milk...

"It tastes great! It has a special sweet aroma!"

Serila held the cup in both hands and stood beside the pot, smiling so brightly that her eyes narrowed:

"Grete, this cocoa powder will be particularly comfortable to drink in winter!"
