Chapter 19 Magic Potion
Thor wanted to argue something, but Chris said, "Well, there's no point in arguing about this, and we're not actually opposites, right?"
"Chris is right." Xia nodded.
"How could he consider Xia as his own..." Thor said with a grudge.
"Do you remember why you brought Xia here?" Chris reminded.
His words really pulled Thor back from his dilemma.
Thor slapped his head and said, "Chris, you reminded me! We are here for a serious matter! I won't forget to bring the magic potion for Xiaoxia!"
Lu Yi blinked when he heard that.
[“857, Identify whether there is a tool.”]
[11111111, of course! ]
"Let me find where I put it."
Thor turned around and started searching through the hill of gold.
After a long while, Thor turned around excitedly holding a potion tube.
“Found it!”
This stubborn beastman boy raised the tube of potion in his hand towards Xia and gave a bright smile.
Xia was slightly stunned, but still had a perfect smile on her face.
He slowly approached Thor, but did not immediately take the precious potion he handed over.
Xia just smiled peacefully, reached out her hand and gently combed the beastman's dark brown hair that was messy from searching.
"Thank you Thor," he said softly, looking at him with a light in his eyes.
Thor's face flushed instantly, and he stammered, "No, it's okay. If I can help Xia, that would be the best!"
Xia took the potion tube and said with certainty: "I will definitely perform very well at the baptism ceremony! I will never let you down!"
Lu Yi squinted his eyes and looked at the reagent in Xia's hand.
[“857, test the potion in his hand.”]
【Okay.】
Thor scratched his face. "Xia, don't feel too stressed. I believe that you will be able to make a splash at the baptism ceremony regardless of whether you have this potion or not! You have awakened your talent in advance, so you will be even more stunning at the baptism ceremony!"
[Ding Dong! The player has successfully redeemed the D-level item [Potion Test]! Points deducted: 1]
The next second, a transparent panel popped up in front of Lu Yi, and the information about the potion was revealed.
[Potion Name: Inspiration Amplifier (Perfect Version)]
[Potion Level: S]
[Potion Description: Inspiration Amplifier is one of the ten most famous potions in the Isaiah continent, and is known for being expensive and rare. There are very few pharmacists who can make this potion, and it has been even harder to find in recent years. The last time Inspiration Amplifier (perfect version) appeared seemed to be in the orc territory in the far north.]
[Potion function: Take it before baptism to induce positive guidance, greatly enhance inspiration, and increase the upper limit of talent. (Note: If positive guidance causes reverse guidance, that is, negative induction, it will cause the inspiration of the user to be blocked and the talent to be greatly reduced!)]
Lu Yi was delighted after reading the instructions.
[“857, guess who this magic potion Xia is for.”]
He really, he hates it.
Lu Yi looked up at Xia.
Xia's eyes were still on the potion in her hand, and there didn't seem to be anything unusual on her gentle expression.
The strange light in his eyes was reflected on the glass wall of the potion.
"Xia?" Thor called again.
Xia suddenly came back to his senses.
"I'm sorry." Tears welled up in his eyes. "I was just too excited. I really wanted to prove myself."
Thor patted his shoulder knowingly, "I understand."
"Thank you, thank you Thor..."
Xia nodded with tears in her eyes, but she didn't agree at all in her heart.
How could an ignorant and naive beastman prince understand him?
He doesn't understand.
Just as he would never know that he had ulterior motives in saving him.
…
…
A few days ago.
Xia came out of the temple in the royal city as usual.
Although Klein Manor also has an auditorium, and it is quite large, he still chooses to go to the temple in the royal city every time.
——After all, the temple in the royal city has people sent by the Grand Church, but Klein Manor has nothing.
His religion is to be laid before the sun, along with his purity and harmlessness.
The guards of the Temple of Light were already very familiar with him, and when they saw him finishing his morning prayer and getting ready to leave, they whispered goodbye to him.
"Goodbye, may the God of Light be with you, Master Xia."
"Goodbye, may the God of Light be with you!"
When Xia saw the friendliness and appreciation in his eyes, he knew that his persistence was worth it.
His fame would rise from the newly victorious royal city and spread to the territories of the Archbishop's Church.
Everyone will know that there is such a pious Son of Light.
He would be the best candidate for the Son of Light.
As for his arrogant brother Lu Yi——
He won't be able to be proud for long.
The nobles were so obsessed with their own territories that they had no idea how realistic the outside world was.
Status is not brought by so-called noble blood, but by power.
Only those with absolute power can have the right to speak.
Xia walked towards the vehicle that was picking him up in a happy mood.
This was a gorgeous carriage. Although it was not as precious and luxurious as the one that picked up Lu Yi, the Klein badge on the roof was enough to double its value.
Xia looked at the respectful driver and decided to take back his previous thoughts.
Perhaps power is the absolute right to speak, but underneath this, the nobles are also extremely powerful in whitewashing their own status.
After all, he was a noble who was worshipped with the blood of countless slaves.
The wealthy and extremely luxurious nobles.
Xia leaned on the soft goose down cushion and closed her eyes to rest in the carriage.
In order to catch the morning prayers in the temple, he had to sacrifice some sleep and get up early every day.
The carriage stopped suddenly and Xia fell forward uncontrollably.
He held onto the iron railing in the carriage, pulled aside the curtain and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"
The groom said in a panic, "Master Xia, we seem to have bumped into someone..."
"What?" Xia frowned, put on a worried expression and walked out of the car.
This place is not far from the temple, and there are many passers-by watching on the road.
If he behaved inappropriately now, bad rumors about him would spread throughout the entire royal city tomorrow.
"Master Xia, I'm really not trying to absolve myself of the crime." The coachman said with a sad face, "I was driving the carriage properly, and this person suddenly appeared out of nowhere!"
"I swear, he really appeared out of nowhere! The horse couldn't dodge in time, and even though I tried my best to control it, I still crashed into him."
"It's okay." Xia stepped on the bench and walked to the ground.
He approached the slumped figure.
The chest of the unconscious person was still rising and falling, and he did not appear to be dead yet.
"Jack, please ask someone to take him to the hospital and give him some extra money..."
Xia said in the most appropriate way.
"Wait a moment--"
His eyes fell on the dark red lines behind the man's ears.
If it weren't for his sharp eyes, he wouldn't have noticed this tiny line at all.
If it was just an ordinary person standing here today, I'm afraid he wouldn't take it to heart even if he noticed it.
And Xia just happened to recognize this pattern.
This is the beast pattern that only the royal family of the beast tribe has.
The unconscious man in front of me is the royal family of the beastman!
Xia's heart was filled with turmoil, but on the surface she remained calm and worried.
In this short moment, many fragments flashed through his mind.
He recalled the days before he was taken back to Klein Manor.
At that time he was in the Grand Court of the Temple of Light.
The Holy See is not a territory of any country, but an independent city-state like the Magic Association and the Alliance College of Higher Learning.
The library of the Vatican contains countless precious books.
Xia absorbed countless information there like a sponge.
Including some potions he had never heard of before.
For example: inspiration amplifier.
This potion is one of the few that can affect the results of baptism. It is also very difficult to refine, so it has not appeared on the mainland for a long time.
But Xia remembered the latest record about this potion in the book: the last time the inspiration amplifier appeared seemed to be in the orc territory in the far north, collected by the orc royal family.
Xia could hear her own heart pounding.
He swallowed calmly and stopped the groom who was about to go find someone.
"Wait a moment--"
Xia changed her tone and said, "After all, we were the ones who hit him, so we have to take full responsibility. Jack, go find a hotel room, we'll take him there, and then find him a doctor."
He awakened his talent ahead of time.
Xia was confident that she would make a splash at the baptism ceremony.
But this potion has another use.
Such a miraculous potion certainly has its pros and cons, and benefits are accompanied by risks.
What he has to do is to magnify this risk infinitely.
The reaction happened to Lu Yi.
Xia remembered the healing potion pill that Lu Yi crushed in front of him, and the humiliation he suffered in front of the bulletin board.
You can’t blame him, Xia thought, it was Brother Lu Yi who took the initiative to hurt him.
He obviously did nothing.
He just gives some courage to those who hesitate.
Why should all the blame be put on him?
This is really unfair.
…
This beastman prince was much simpler than Xia had imagined.
Just a little disguise and some specious words made him believe it completely.
"Xia! Can I call you that?" The boy with dark brown hair looked at him with burning eyes.
"Of course! Thor, I thought we were already friends!" Xia said with a smile.
The boy's cheeks instantly turned red, and he looked reckless and immature.
Such young people almost have the words "naive and gullible" and "inexperienced" engraved on their faces.
Sia was actually laughing.
He was simply amused by Thor's stupidity.
At first, Xia was still worried that the operation to obtain the magic potion would not go smoothly. After all, there were only a few days left before the baptism ceremony, and no one knew what kind of unexpected events would happen to the boy.
But these exchanges undoubtedly gave him a shot in the arm.
I would be sorry if I didn't take the potion.
Of course, although Thor was stupid, he did not reveal all his secrets to others.
He didn't foolishly confess to Xia that he was an orc prince. He just said that he came to the royal city to look for his relatives and that his cousin worked in the orc tavern.
Xia helped him find an orc named Chris, and successfully gained the gratitude and friendship of the two.
Everything that happened next was like divine help.
Xia did not directly tell him about his embarrassing situation - he knew that some things would only be true and credible if you discovered them by yourself. Instead, he used some clues to let Thor figure out his current difficulties.
Plus some inducements that Thor couldn't detect.
The young orc took the bait and rashly tried to help him.
"Xia, do you know the inspiration amplifier?"
"What?" Xia said in confusion, "I'm sorry, you know, I used to live in the countryside and I don't know much about these magical potions."
Xia lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes covering his depressed eyes, looking fragile and in urgent need of protection.
Thor knew he had said something wrong, and immediately said anxiously: "That's not what I meant..."
"I know." Xia raised her eyes, and his red cheeks were reflected in her beautiful blue eyes.
He had not always been a shy man, Thor thought, nor a taciturn one.
Even the high priest once praised his quick thinking.
But when he met Xia, things were obviously different.
His eloquence and quick wit turned into empty talk.
He was like a clumsy and dull herbivorous orc who could only show goodwill by the most despicable means.
"This potion can amplify the pure side of the soul. I thought you would be baptized soon, so it might be useful to you..." Thor explained.
Perhaps this gesture of goodwill was clumsy and cheap, but it was the best thing he could think of at the moment.
And Xia seemed to like this gift very much. Thor thought so as he looked at Xia's slightly widened eyes.
…
…
"Okay, take it and go,"
Chris spoke up, interrupting the "affectionate" gaze between the two.
Xia came back to her senses and gave him a shy smile.
"Chris is right, this is not the place to talk. Let's go to another restaurant to eat! I know there's a restaurant in Wangcheng that's been open for a long time. The stone pot stew and vegetable salad there are super delicious!
"But no one is allowed to snatch the order from me this time!" Xia shook the medicine tube in her hand, "I have to pay for it!"
The three of them were chatting and laughing, and Lu Yi followed them, shaking his head.
[“What a vicious heart.”] Lu Yi sighed.
Although Lu Yi has already made some harsh remarks, he has not actually taken any action to deal with Xia.
Unlike Xia, who is a man of action, ruthless and quiet.
Otherwise, he would be the protagonist of the novel.
[“This is going to completely crush me to death!”]
If he really did not inspire any talent at the baptism ceremony as Xia wished, I am afraid that the news of "Lu Yi Klein was abandoned by the God of Light" would spread throughout New Victory the next day.
If he were still the original owner who knew nothing, I'm afraid things would really develop in the direction of Xia's plan.
He, Lu Yi Klein, is afraid that he has no place to stand.
But it's a pity.
Standing here is a brand new Lu Yi Klein.
This also meant that his trick was doomed to fail.
[“Look! Redefining the Virgin Mary.”] Lu Yi still remembered that 857 had said that Xia might be the real Virgin Mary, and couldn’t help but teased her.
857 seemed a little depressed, and said: [Pooh! I didn't say he was a saint later, I was deceived by his false appearance before! ]
【“It doesn’t matter.”】Lu Yi spread his hands.
No matter how Xia plans to deal with him, he will find that it is all in vain in the end.
After all, he is a cheating player :)
The author has something to say:
I'm so busy today, but there will be no update tomorrow. I might go v-proof on Thursday, so I have to strategically stop updating for a day tomorrow. I'm crying.
