Chapter 226 Do Things Without Considering The Consequences, Right? 5/6
Chapter 226 You do things without considering the consequences, right? (56)
Philander Village is in the south of the city, and Lily Manor is in the east of the city. They are about 16 miles away from each other, which is not too far.
The road was not bad. The Bright Moon Carriage, escorted by the Silver Moon Rangers, sped along and arrived at the end of the field in less than forty minutes, and it was less than two o'clock in the afternoon.
When we arrived at the entrance of the manor, as soon as we got off the car, Butler Lowe saw Rosen and immediately welcomed him out with enthusiasm.
"Ah~ the master guessed right~ Please come in, please come in~ Please come in quickly."
Rosen then pointed at the Silver Moon Rangers who were following him: "They are all my comrades in arms, and the steward arranged a resting place for them."
"No problem. There is a small lake in the backyard of the manor. Gentlemen can go there to fish and relax. If you are sleepy, there are enough rooms to rest."
Rosen signaled to Watson: "Go ahead, I'll let you know if anything happens."
Afterwards, he followed the housekeeper to the manor villa.
"Has Madam been focusing on refining medicine recently?"
Although Vivian's actions indirectly killed many people, he was not a moral gentleman and was too lazy to meddle in other people's business.
Of course, there is no evidence for this idea, it is just conjecture.
Rosen understood.
"But I don't dare to use it myself, and it's hard to find a high-level peak mage. Even if I find one, I'm sure they won't be willing to test the medicine on me."
After thinking about it for a moment, I knew the reason. Vivian's mana had just exploded, and the sound penetrated the home protection spell.
Without waiting for Rosen to answer, she pointed at the ceiling with a smile.
‘Click~’
He originally suspected Faerun, but after knowing that Faerun's background was Electrolux and that he had not been punished by the count, he knew that this matter probably had nothing to do with Faerun.
Since it has nothing to do with Faerun, and the person who did this must be a powerful mage, then Vivian, an alchemist who has no fear of God, is very possible.
"Aren't you afraid that Faerun will beat you to death if he finds out?"
Most are made of crystal glass, and some are made of ceramics, brass, and bronze.
Seeing him like this, Vivian also relaxed her tense mind and gently raised her hand to pat her forehead.
Rosen's face was solemn, his eyes were cold, and he was holding the flower staff tightly with one hand.
Rosen nodded: "You want to test the medicine on him, right?"
Vivian immediately shook her head: "No, no, no~ many materials don't like strong light."
"There are countless secrets in the world, most of which I don't know. Isn't it normal for some accidents that I don't know about to happen while exploring?"
Even if she has a poison shield on her body, Alfreya may not be able to cure Vivian's poison.
Vivian put out the alcohol lamp and said to Rosen: "Look at the wall. There is a pull-out ventilation fan. Please pull it down for me to ventilate this room."
"The lightest one is just a slight change. But there is a general rule that the older you get, the greater the change."
"No, no, no, it's not me!"
Vivian's voice became smaller and smaller: "I didn't mean it, I just wanted to get some extraordinary materials to make medicine."
On the walls on both sides, there were many wooden shelves, and there were many glass bottles on the shelves. The bottles contained all kinds of weird things that Rosen couldn't name.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "After I lowered the potency, I tried it on hunting dogs, chickens, ducks, geese and rabbits. The most serious ones became very thorough."
Walking to the basement door, he knocked gently: "Vivian, is it convenient for me to come in now?"
But he really needed this potion, and he was not an innocent boy, so he nodded: "I will try my best."
Then he asked about Feilun: "What are the side effects of the Archmage's potion?"
"I guessed it, and your reaction told me that I guessed it right."
"Hurry up and put it on, there are a lot of things inside that are highly poisonous."
"Yes~ Madam's alchemy skills are very powerful, much better than those so-called famous alchemists."
When Vivian heard this, she immediately smiled sweetly and her eyes flashed with excitement.
Then he looked at Rosen cautiously: "I really didn't mean it."
The sound was low, like the chirping of mosquitoes.
After a long while, he whispered: "You know this, I know it, but you must never let a third person know it! Otherwise, you will have to go to God's punishment rack!"
Rosen was extremely speechless. He believed that what Vivian said was true, but he also deeply felt that this woman was strange.
"I thought about various methods, and I finally found one that might be effective, and I made the finished product."
Seeing that the other party was concentrating on refining some unknown potion, he did not interrupt and waited quietly.
Vivian thought for a moment: "I don't know about this, but it shouldn't be serious, right?"
She was wearing a large thick leather apron, thick leather gloves, and a beak leather mask on her head. After seeing Rosen, she pointed to a set of thick leather protective equipment on the wall next to the door.
There was a soft sound from behind the door, and then Vivian's voice came out.
Vivian carefully put the newly made potion into a crystal bottle and sealed the mouth of the bottle with tinfoil. Then she looked at Rosen and smiled sweetly: "Let's go and talk in the hall."
"This essence can greatly stimulate the body and make you energetic for a short period of time, just like returning to your youth, and then it will burn out like a fiercely burning candle."
Vivian thought for a moment: "This is difficult, but you can open a workshop and make a large number of potions to spread the cost. Of course, the initial investment is expensive."
When the Silver Moon Rangers arrived, Rosen noticed that they all looked a little strange.
Rosen sneered: "Faerun is my mortal enemy, but you helped him break through the master cliff! Isn't this a great harm to me?"
With a slight cough, Rosen explained with some embarrassment: "Believe me, I did this to better build Crescent Town."
Rosen nodded: "Yes, the lower the cost, the better."
Vivian suddenly added another sentence.
"Honey, the door is open, come in."
Vivian's expression froze slightly, and her eyes flickered: "Harm you? No."
"Who makes you the father of the child? And I don't want my child to be without a father since he was a child, so I must help you."
What else could Rosen say: "Thank you very much."
After a pause, he added: "I know why you are here, you want to find low-cost clay potions, right?"
"Madam is in the alchemy room in the basement. The entrance is over there. You can go there by yourself."
Rosen frowned slightly: "The only person in the highlands who is more dangerous than a high-level peak mage is the earl. You didn't give the earl medicine, right?"
She seemed not to want to mention the past and immediately changed the subject.
After about ten minutes, the potion seemed to be refined successfully.
"When I see Vivian, I'll trick her and I'll probably get the answer."
"But Feren is a high-level mage after all. Even if he feels depressed, he will definitely not give me a test of the medicine."
After a pause, he said: "Let this matter go away completely, I will keep it secret for you. But you must also control your own mouth and don't think about showing off everywhere!"
Entering the villa lobby, Butler Lovi saluted Rosen.
"Yes, yes~ My magic power has reached its peak, but I still can't break through it, so I tried to refine an archmage potion."
"Yes, the reduction of hair is the first one. The increase of hair, such as thickening of beard and hair, is the second one. You will know if you find time to observe Faerun."
The basement is at least a hundred square meters, surrounded by flat stone walls and wooden boards on the floor. There is a long square table in the middle with all kinds of strange utensils on it.
Rosen was startled: "Can the side effects be identified by their appearance?"
"The process of pursuing true knowledge is always dangerous. In fact, this danger is nothing to me. I have done more dangerous things, and I almost died that time."
"So, you took advantage of Master Electrox's sudden death and Faerun to be devastated and depressed to trick him into taking the potion?"
But Rosen thought about lightning and already guessed another possibility.
Upon hearing this, Rosen knew that the other party had indeed conducted very in-depth research on alchemy.
Rosen listened carefully and felt that the thing sounded simple, but in practice it was very difficult and easy to make mistakes.
"Actually, there is no such side effect, but he is your opponent, so I added an extra rejuvenation essence."
"That's right."
"How did you know?"
Rosen believed her, because judging from her performance, she was not truly unafraid, but was still very afraid of the third golden rule.
"It's a little dark inside. Do you need me to keep a magic light ball on the ceiling?"
Hearing what Rosen said, Vivian breathed a sigh of relief, then immediately raised her hand and pinched her lips hard.
Rosen nodded, secretly alert in his heart, but he didn't feel panic because the constant lucky shield effect on his body was still there.
Rosen asked again: "Faylan is not dead, so it seems to be the first and second side effects. To what extent will it be?"
After sitting down, Vivian smiled sweetly at Rosen: "My dear, do you really miss me that much?"
Rosen recalled Vivian's strange behavior in Philander Village, and a strange thought suddenly flashed in his mind.
Vivian is considered one of the first chemists in the world. If she didn't have the spirit of not being afraid of death, she might not be able to achieve her current achievements.
Rosen was speechless: "Then you are equivalent to killing him."
Vivian was beaming with joy, as if she had done something very proud.
"Ah~ there is another side effect, that is, the life span will be greatly shortened, maybe five or six years, maybe one or two years, or even less than half a year."
An hour later, Rosen left the villa a little tired. As for Vivian, she had already fallen asleep from exhaustion.
Vivian spread her hands, looking aggrieved.
Rosen did as he was told, pulling it up and down, and sure enough, a lot of fresh air flowed into the basement, replacing the slightly dirty air.
Rosen stared closely.
"Hey~ It's really scary to deal with a smart person like you. You can't hide any secrets."
The two took off their protective clothing and returned to sit in the hall.
After putting it on, he still stood five or six meters apart.
"You do things without thinking about the consequences?"
Rosen did not dare to slack off and immediately complied.
There are many chemists in the history of the earth who died on the spot because of directly smelling chemicals. The brother of the dynamite king Nobel was killed while doing experiments.
Vivian waved her hands repeatedly.
Rosen observed carefully and found tools commonly used in chemical laboratories such as distillers, thermometers, alcohol lamps, etc., and they were all quite exquisite in shape.
Rosen suddenly felt like he was being beaten hard by a rich woman with money.
"snort!"
Vivian is standing busy at the square table.
Recalling that the housekeeper once said that Vivian had designed the Moon Garden for the Earl, I felt that this was extremely possible!
Vivian waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, how dare I test the medicine on the earl? It will really kill people. Actually, cough cough, it's over anyway, so I won't mention it."
He suddenly lowered his voice and looked at Vivian with a look that looked like a madman: "The ancient evil god in Yuehui Town unexpectedly awakened, couldn't it be you who did it?!"
"If you can make me happy in the next hour, I will ask my brother to pay to open a clay potion workshop and supply you with the lowest possible price."
Rosen pushed open the door and entered.
Rosen was immediately speechless because what he said was right.
"Vivian, I've been sorry to you before, but I've sincerely apologized. Why are you still hurting me?"
"The first one is effective, but feminine. The second one is effective, but beastly. The third one is ineffective, and he died suddenly on the spot."
Vivian's expression froze completely. It took her a while to calm down, and she looked at Rosen with strange eyes.
"I promise I won't tell."
Vivian's face suddenly turned white and she immediately denied it.
After entering the door, there is a semicircular staircase going down. After walking down a few steps, you will see a broad and slightly dark basement.
Vivian didn't care.
Rosen understood, stopped paying attention to Faerun, and was about to ask about the clay potion.
"So, I made a stun potion using white umbrella, poisonous fireweed and heart-wrenching flower, and then I hid it outside his window and secretly exchanged a few words. As a result, he drank the potion stupidly."
Vivian smiled softly: "According to my estimation, there are three possible side effects."
While speaking, Rosen had already softened his demeanor because he knew that Vivian was not a threat to him.
A ranger said: "Sir, you don't need to explain. We have all heard about Vivian's deeds. She is indeed a very difficult woman."
Another ranger said: "Yes, we all understand your difficulties."
The third ranger looked shocked: "Sir, your ability is really admirable!"
Rosen felt warm in his heart and sighed: "Let's go back to Philander Village!"
