On the experimental table in the center of the room, a glass beaker was filled with blue liquid. After the black candlestick below was lit, an orange-red flame rose up and licked the bottom of the beaker. As the temperature gradually increased, the blue liquid
The liquid also made a gurgling sound.
Enzo, who was wearing a black robe, looked solemn and his eyes were always paying attention to the changes in the liquid in the beaker.
After about ten minutes, the blue liquid in the beaker began to emit a pungent aroma. Enzo calculated the time, took out a packet of red powder from the experimental table, and carefully poured it into the beaker.
Phew! The liquid in the beaker boiled.
"It's almost done." Enzo said to himself, extinguishing the flame of the candlestick and waiting for the beaker to cool naturally before pouring all the blue liquid inside into a glass test tube. "The incomplete version of [Sky Potion],
Finish!"
Shaking the blue liquid in the test tube, the expression on Enzo's face did not change much.
After returning from the Dodo Forest, Enzo has been staying in Kaiyuan City. While learning the [Curse of Explosive Flames], he began to try to refine the [Sky Potion] based on the formula on the parchment. With the help of the chip, he
He quickly mastered the refining method of [Sky Potion].
But due to insufficient materials, he was never able to refine the real [Sky Potion].
"Sky Tree Fruit..." Enzo murmured to himself, sighing: "This kind of thing has not appeared on the ice sheet for many years, but it is the main material for refining [Sky Potion]. If there is no
, it is simply impossible to refine the real [Sky Potion].”
"It seems that I can only have a chance to try my luck in Eagle Grassland or Silver Moon Kingdom."
Shaking his head, Enzo put away the broken version of [Sky Potion] without adding the Sky Tree Fruit, turned and left the laboratory.
Following the spiral staircase out of the underground, Enzo arrived on the first floor of the castle and went straight to a room.
"How are you? How is your recovery?" Enzo opened the door and walked in. The clean and tidy room was filled with the smell of medicine, and Clarence, covered with burn marks, was lying quietly on the hospital bed.
"Thank you, Master, for your concern. I'm much better now." Clarence wanted to stand up and salute, but was pushed down by Enzo, and a slight bitterness appeared on his face. "The doctor in the castle just finished examining me. The burns on the outside of my body are
He's fine now, but the internal meridians are damaged, and I don't know how long it will take to recover."
As he said this, Clarence looked pained and his eyes darkened.
During the battle in the Dodo Forest, Clarence was injured by the explosion. Although he received timely treatment and luckily survived, the meridians in his body were extensively damaged, which directly led to the decline of his fighting spirit and the loss of his fighting ability as a knight.
In this world where force is paramount, losing fighting spirit is even more painful for a knight than killing him.
"Don't think too much, Clarence." Enzo comforted softly. While patting his shoulder, he took out a blue test tube from his arms and said, "Kaiyuan City will not forget you. Drink this."
, maybe it can make you feel better."
"Is this the magic potion you prepared again?" Clarence took the test tube, raised his head and drank the potion inside.
"How's it going? How do you feel this time?" Enzo asked.
"I'm afraid... not." Feeling the cold liquid across his throat, Clarence shook his head slightly and said with a wry smile: "Thank you very much for your help these days, but the potion doesn't seem to be of any use to me."
"Is it still useless?" Enzo frowned slightly, his eyes flashing with thought, "How could this be?"
"According to the analysis of the chip, the incomplete version of [Sky Potion] does not contain Sky Tree Fruit, so it cannot have the ability to advance the great knight. However, its effect can stimulate the human body's potential and stimulate the fighting spirit of ordinary people."
"Clarence's internal meridians are damaged and his fighting spirit is in a state of sluggishness!"
"When he used the magic potion in this situation, he should have activated his fighting spirit to restore his strength. How come there was no response?" Enzo was confused, but he didn't know what the problem was.
At this moment, Clarence, who was lying on the hospital bed, suddenly frowned.
"Master Enzo...uh!" Clarence opened his mouth, and just as he was about to say something, his body suddenly felt a stab of pain.
"Uh...ah!!" For a moment, it was as if countless steel needles were piercing his whole body. Clarence's face turned pale, his hands and feet began to twitch violently, and he wailed in pain, and he fell off the bed.
.
"Clarence!?" Enzo was slightly startled and quickly helped him up.
The painful needle-pricking feeling only lasted a few seconds, but Clarence felt as if he had been fished out of the water. His whole body was soaked in cold sweat, his face was as pale as white paper, and his chest was heaving violently.
"How do you feel? Clarence." After a while, Enzo asked with a frown.
"I... seem to be able to feel a trace of fighting spirit." Clarence's pale face was a little confused, and he said in an uncertain tone: "Just now, the meridians all over my body were tingling, and I felt that the fighting spirit in my body seemed to be boiling for a while, but then it calmed down.
..."
"Could it be...that it's the effect of the potion?" Clarence's eyes brightened slightly, and his tone was a little excited.
"It's possible." Enzo's eyes flashed and he nodded slightly. "Since you can feel the existence of fighting spirit, it means that your body still has the possibility of recovery. Take a good rest first and wait until the next time you refine the magic."
Yao, I’ll see you again.”
After that, Enzo patted Clarence on the shoulder, turned and left the room.
Returning to the bedroom on the second floor, Enzo had just taken off his black robe when he heard a knock on the door.
"Master Enzo, this is the message raft just sent by the Rangers." After getting permission, Daisy walked in. She brought the Ranger's message raft, which was sent from the battlefield.
"Capture another town?" Enzo opened the letter and glanced at it.
The content on the letter raft is about the recent war situation. Since Enzo killed the Andrew brothers in the Dodo Forest, O'Quinn also killed two great knights on the battlefield. The expansion of the Allied forces is unstoppable, and they were captured ten days ago.
The Iron Horn City.
Yesterday, near the Border Town of Black Crow City, O'Quinn won another victory.
In today's icy plains, Kaiyuan already has the power of four cities, and only one Black Crow City is still resisting. O'Quinn, who wants to unify the icy plains and establish a kingdom, naturally cannot give up, so he is gathering troops.
Prepare to take over Black Crow City in one fell swoop.
Enzo glanced at the contents of the letter and threw it aside.
"It seems that the war will be over soon." Enzo walked slowly to the window, looked into the distance, frowned slightly and said, "Father has gathered the troops of the four cities in one place. Logically speaking, Black Crow City is no longer possible.
I can stop it, but why do I feel uneasy in my heart?"
"Oh, I wish I was overthinking it!" Enzo sighed and shook his head with a wry smile.
