"What is this!" Ivey was frightened by the scene in the courtyard.
I saw a round pit more than half a meter deep on the lawn in the middle of the yard. The round pit was filled with red liquid, and the thick smell of blood permeated the entire yard.
"Dragon blood~what else could it be?" Irene replied
"Don't you just want the essence and blood of the young dragon?"
"That's the key material! It's so simple to refine the finished potion. And the method of using the bone-tempering potion is also very special. The whole process requires you to soak in the blood of an adult dragon."
She pointed at the blood pit and urged, "Get down quickly!"
"Don't tell me in advance. Fortunately, it's summer now. If it's winter, I won't freeze to death." With this muttered, Ivey came to the edge of the pit and prepared to jump down.
"Wait a minute," Erin called to him.
"What's wrong?" He turned his head in confusion.
"Take off your clothes"
"..." It's reasonable to take off your clothes, but "do you want to——" He started to be pretentious
"What's the point of a twelve-year-old kid like you? Besides, we've already seen it." Irene knew what he was thinking and interrupted directly.
Okay, you are awesome!
After quickly taking off all his clothes, he jumped into the pit and sat down cross-legged.
"The skin was a little tingling." Ivey felt uncomfortable just by soaking in dragon's blood.
"It's normal. Come on, drink this." Irene handed over a cup of red potion.
"Gudong - what is this? It's quite delicious." Without hesitation, he took it and drank it in one gulp.
"Repair potion. Okay, all preparations are done. Here you go, drink it." Irene took out another shining silver bottle.
"This is the bone-hardening potion." Ivey flipped through it. "Then I'll drink it." Then he drank it in one gulp.
"Tsk tsk - it's not that good. It's not as good as the repair potion." He smacked his lips twice.
"Let me remind you, the tempering process is very painful. Don't think it's fun." Irene said with a serious face.
"How much - can it hurt! Ahhh -!"
Before he finished speaking, Ivey's expression suddenly distorted, and he fell into the pit. He endured the pain, quickly got up, held the edge with both hands, and knelt in the blood pool, his whole body trembling. The power of the bone-tempering potion
It was washing over his body. On the surface of his body, countless blood bubbles appeared and disappeared.
"Are you okay?" Wendy looked a little worried when she saw the strange phenomenon on his body.
"The normal reaction is that the bone quenching potion has started to take effect." As a professional, Irene, the mother, is the calmest one.
This situation lasted for half an hour, and now Ivey's body has turned red. The dragon's blood in the pool is boiling like a boiling kettle, and the evaporating blood mist is drawn by an unknown force and envelopes him in the pool.
Condensed into a fuzzy red cocoon.
"Pa!" Inside the red cocoon, a blood bubble on Ivy's shoulder burst, and thick blood flew out. And this was just the beginning. The sound was like a signal. In an instant, all the blood bubbles on his body surface burst.
They all exploded one after another. Hot blood instantly covered the whole body, and the body shriveled up visibly, becoming skin and bones.
"Ivy!" Outside, Betty called softly. Unfortunately, he couldn't hear the sound at this time.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen. This is his choice, just trust him." Wendy hugged her daughter and comforted her warmly.
Ivey's condition looks miserable at this time, but it's actually not that exaggerated. Although his body is shriveled, his vitality is very strong. Now he can live for a long time even without using the magic stone.
The main source of his pain was the blood on his body that was constantly burning his skin. Fortunately, Irene had given him a repair potion before, so that he could endure the pain. Otherwise, he would have fainted from the pain.
Another half hour or so passed.
The blood covering Ivey's body suddenly began to burn. The bright red flame burned away the cocoon and the blood on his body, and the vision in the pit gradually became clear.
I saw that the surface of Ivey's body was covered with dense spider web-like red veins, converging from the limbs and trunk to the heart.
“Almost”
Seeing this, Irene walked to the edge of the pool and took out a bottle of potion again. Different from ordinary liquid potions, this bottle contained colorful gravel.
Amplification potion - an extremely precious product of ancient wisdom. It can multiply the effects of other potions. The production method has been lost.
Erin poured the amplification potion into the pool
"Is it over?" Wendy and Betty also came over.
"The tempering is over, and it's time for denial."
"Would it be too risky to increase the amount of denies?" Wendy also knows a thing or two about this potion.
"I'm very prepared~"
Eileen took out a large bag of bottles and jars, took them out and poured them in. Activating potions, oxygen therapy potions, life potions, treatment potions - etc., etc., as long as they were tonics, she would pour them in, hoping that Ivy
It can be completely absorbed. Various chemicals are blended into the pit, and the intertwined colors are like a dye vat. After letting it sit for a while, it becomes clear and translucent.
"Bang! Bang!—Bang bang!"
The powerful heartbeat sounded clearly in the ears of the women. Ivy's heart was radiating light at the moment, like a dazzling sun. The halo and blood pool rippled with the beating of the heart, even if it was soaked in dragon water.
It can also be clearly seen in blood.
As the heart beats, the veins on the body surface move like blood flowing back. The dragon's blood in the pool slowly turns black, and the essence flows into the heart along the meridians, and then nourishes the whole body through blood circulation.
The replenishment was about to be completed, and Ivey's body became as full as a water-absorbing sponge. He slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of thick air. He felt better than ever before, and he couldn't help but want to howl loudly.
With this thought in his mind, Ivey stood up from the pool suddenly, and just when he was about to howl, Irene's voice came.
"What are you doing!"
Only then did Ivey remember that there were three ladies present. He blushed and reached out to block the key parts.
"Stop blocking it, it will take a few more years before I can see it - now go take a shower! It stinks!" Wendy and others held their noses and distanced themselves.
After being tempered, all the impurities in his body were expelled. Most of them remained in the pit, making the translucent blood pool turbid and smelly, and only some residue remained stuck to his body.
Ivey quickly ran into the house and ran to the bathroom.
"Incredible! This effect is equivalent to washing the marrow ~" Ivy said coquettishly while taking a shower
It’s not his fault, just looking at the appearance, the pores are obviously more delicate. And the common problems of European and American people - strong body hair and strong body odor, these have been said goodbye to him. Of course, he is still young and can’t feel it yet. He will wait for development.
When you are mature, you will be grateful for all this.
"No wonder people say that marrow cleansing is equivalent to beauty. The ancients do not deceive me!" Aiwei was already good-looking. After tempering her body this time, she became a proper female killer. In the past, there was no distinction between old and young, but now she probably doesn't.
Race.
After washing, go back to the living room. Erin and the others are here, and the yard has returned to its original state.
"Hey~ He's become more handsome." As soon as she saw him, Irene started teasing him like an old gangster. Wendy and Betty also nodded frequently.
"Appearance is secondary. After all, I'm already handsome enough. The main strength doesn't seem to have changed much." Ivey clenched his fists and felt it.
"It's not that there hasn't been much change, it's that there hasn't been any change at all. You've forgotten what I told you last time, right? What it gives you is the future - these few years will be the peak of your development, and you will see the effects."
Erin returned to her casual attitude, "Also - don't you feel anything unusual?"
"Abnormal?" Ivey was stunned for a moment. It was okay not to mention it. As soon as I mentioned it, Ivey immediately realized that something was wrong.
"My body is very hot." He stared at the ladies with evil eyes and licked his lips.
"Just heat. I added too many tonics. Your absorption capacity is limited, and now they are all stored in the body." Irene ignored his look.
"What should we do?"
"Either vent it out or absorb it"
"——Vent it out." Ivy had evil thoughts and his eyes began to turn red.
"You don't have that ability." Wendy saw through his evil thoughts and said calmly.
"Hmph! I'll make you look good in the future" Ivy thought viciously. Then he asked, "How to absorb it?"
"I'm exercising. I'll do it from day to night for about twenty days in a row."
"Twenty days! The efficiency is too low!"
"There is no other way. If you don't exercise during the day, you probably won't be able to sleep at night. It's best not to eat anything and just drink water."
"..." No choice, he could only accept the opinions of professionals.
——————
During this period, Ivey lived a very regular life. He went out with a bucket of water at six o'clock in the morning. First he jogged for two hours, replenished some water, sprinted intermittently for an hour, then jumped around the park twice. Then he did push-ups.
, a combination of crunches, horizontal bars, squats, planks, and burpees.
This ended the morning. At noon, I went home to work as a cook for the ladies, and I could only watch but not eat. After an hour and a half lunch break, I went to the beach at 2:30 in the afternoon and started a three-hour swimming training.
Ivey was very uncomfortable with it at first. Even though there was energy in his body that kept replenishing his physical strength, he was still very tired.
But after practicing for two days, I found it quite interesting. My body has adapted, and I don’t have to worry about knee or ankle problems that have been criticized. After all, here, even if the bones are gone, they can grow back.
It lasted for twenty days before the energy stored in the body was basically digested. The effect was immediate. Ivy grew three centimeters taller, probably half a head taller than Harry, and his skin seemed to have a halo after washing. The most obvious thing was his figure.
He's not like that muscular gym boy. Due to age restrictions, his figure is just angular, strong but not bulky, and he looks very stylish.
And Ivey has never thought about going to the gym. He is someone who really wants to fight, and his body that affects speed is not suitable for him at all. The current wave-washed streamlined body is good, very practical and suitable.
Aesthetic.
Tonight, Ivey can finally have dinner.
"Tomorrow, I plan to invite the Weasley family, Harry and Hermione to come and play. It happens to be Harry's birthday, so we can all get together." At the dinner table, Ivy discussed with the women at home.
"It doesn't matter~ You're the one cooking anyway, and we can't be tired. It just so happens that Wendy and Mrs. Molly haven't seen each other for a long time. When will they come?" Irene trimmed her nails without raising her head.
"The Weasleys are here early in the morning, but Hermione and Harry need to be picked up." This is also the disadvantage of children. Adults don't trust you, and it's inconvenient to go anywhere.
"Don't you know how to drive? Go and pick her up~" She wanted to be lazy again
“I don’t have a driver’s license, what should I do if I get checked?”
"It's okay. I cast a spell on the car. It can't be seen from the outside."
