In the dark basement, Mawei, who was wearing a mask, held a glass pestle in both hands and slowly stirred the viscous brown liquid in the pot. While he was stirring, Yunia picked up the bottles and jars that had been prepared nearby and poured them into the pot.
Falling down, Buggy's spirit body floated in the air, guiding him carefully.
"Stir the speed a little faster, yes, and add formic acid at this time...lower the fire..."
When it comes to refining potions, Buggy can be called the senior among the seniors. The truth he knows includes a lot of potion knowledge. With his guidance, refining potions has become much easier.
"Fire ant formic acid is a paralyzing toxin and is highly corrosive to the human body. Why can it be used to make truth serum?"
Ma Wei asked while stirring the pot.
"Fire ants' formic acid contains a substance called acyl acid, which can paralyze the nerves, make them relax and slow down their reactions, and the borg grass that Yunia is adding to the pot is a detoxifying herb that can neutralize
The toxicity of fire ants' formic acid makes it harmless while retaining a certain paralysis effect...."
Badge explained patiently: "If you want to become a potion master, you must first understand the characteristics of these materials, and through practice, let them collide and fuse different medicinal effects."
"If I just grab a handful of ingredients and throw them into a pot and boil them, can I make a magic potion?"
"Theoretically... it's possible, but no one knows what the hell it will produce."
Badge said: "Potions are a very delicate subject. The dosage must be accurate to the decimal point. Even a small amount may lead to failure or insufficient potency. If it is too strong, only rigorous people can conduct potion experiments."
Ma Wei nodded slightly: "Do you have any other magical potion formulas?"
"...Don't try to trick me."
"You have so much knowledge, wouldn't it be a waste if you don't use it?"
"This knowledge is the treasure that I rely on for my survival." Buggy took out his ears and said, "If you recall my kingdom of God, I will tell you all the magic potion formulas I know."
Glancing at Badji, Ma Wei did not answer, stopped stirring, pointed to the separated upper and lower layers of liquid in the crucible and said, "Does this count as a success?"
After stopping the heating, the brown viscous liquid in the crucible now divided into two layers. All the brown impurities sank to the bottom of the pot, leaving only a slightly clear oil floating on the upper layer.
"Okay, the transparent oily substance on the top is the truth serum, and the impurities below are waste materials, which need to be incinerated." Badji said.
Pick up the funnel and carefully pour the clear oil into the bottle, filling a large bottle. Judging from the scale, it is about a pint or more than 500 milliliters.
After one exercise, I got a large bottle of truth serum, and Ma Wei was very satisfied.
After burning the waste, washing the crucible, and going to the kitchen, Ma Wei made a large pot of tea, and then shouted:
"Felix! Come here!"
Levin, who was looking after the store at the front desk, was chewing dried meat in his mouth, holding a novel in his hand, and slowly walked into the kitchen: "Brother, are you looking for me?"
Ma Wei put the teacup in front of Levin and asked, "How are you doing lately?"
"Body?"
Levin was stunned for a moment: "Why are you asking this? I am very healthy! I can eat and drink..."
"I just care about you."
Ma Wei picked up the tea cup and said, "Try it. The Earl Gray black tea I just got yesterday was given to me by the second prince."
"Brother, you are so strange..."
Ma Wei, who is always busy talking about things, played riddles today, leaving Levin confused. The dried meat happened to be a bit salty, so the thirsty Levin picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, wiping his mouth and just about to leave...
..
Suddenly, he noticed that Ma Wei was looking at him with an extremely subtle look.
"tasty?"
"Not bad." Levin smacked his mouth and couldn't help but said: "Brother, what on earth is going on with you! This look makes me feel hairy all over..."
"How's it going with Miss Helena lately?"
"Let's go on a date and have a meal, that's all!"
"No further?"
"Of course there is... huh?!"
Covering his mouth, Levin's pupils trembled and he felt that his mouth was a little out of control.
Flexing his tongue, Levin continued: "Brother, who do you think I am! I am someone who dares to even go to the queen's bed, and Miss Helena is so proactive... Damn it! What am I talking about! Brother, what are you doing?
Don’t believe it, everything I say is true!”
"Okay, okay..."
The effectiveness of the Veritaserum really surprised Ma Wei. Levin, who was sitting across from him, was already starting to fight with him. The best way to deal with the Veritaserum was not to speak.
Levin covered his mouth and ran away. As soon as he left the kitchen, he bumped into Fat Orange. He was stunned for a moment and said, "Hey, your butt is getting bigger again! The food has been good lately!"
Fat Orange's face turned dark, and the claws that were shrunk in the flesh pads instantly stretched out, and his hind legs exerted force, and he jumped high...
"Meow!!!"
Hearing the screams outside the kitchen, Ma Wei blew on the hot air in the cup, took a sip of hot tea, and felt quite emotional.
It seems that Levine's mental activities are quite frequent and his words are not true.
But there are some words that cannot be said.
Fat Orange's food has been really good recently, and his belly that was a little thin has become bulging again, mainly because he has launched a new business with Ma Wei!
"What's wrong with him?"
Fat Orange walked into the kitchen with his round butt twisted, jumped on the table, and looked back at the direction Levin left: "What did you feed him?"
"Veritaserum."
Ma Wei put the vial containing the truth serum on the table: "Do you want a sip?"
"You can give Xiao Hei a taste."
............................
Late at night, Eton.
The evening breeze was slightly cool, and the moonlight climbed up to the head of the bed. Under the night cover, a black shadow entered the school building along the wall and reached the third floor.
Daniel, who was sleeping, opened his eyes, looked at the figure standing at the window, rubbed his eyes and said, "What are you doing here?"
"Give you something."
Levin walked into the moonlight, took out a small bottle of veritaserum and threw it to Daniel: "Put it away, this is the veritaserum refined by my eldest brother. One drop can make people speak their minds. You can put it down to Xibei
Eat those people's meals and try to find ways to anger them."
Veritaserum...
Daniel's eyes lit up: "This is a good thing! Why haven't I seen my eldest brother take it out before?"
A magic potion that can make people speak their minds is definitely a rare treasure. To deal with those scheming old foxes, you have to use veritaserum!
"Baji gave me the recipe." Levin said in a sullen voice: "Anyway, remember, the ultimate goal is to let those children from conservative families in Xibei say bad things about the Liberal Party..."
"I know, I know!"
Daniel waved his hand, indicating that it was wrapped up on him. Suddenly, he realized that something was wrong with Levin tonight, and he refused to come near him.
"Why are you standing so far away?"
"I'm hot, but it's cool by the window."
Daniel stepped forward in disbelief. Levin wanted to dodge, but he still saw the scars on his face. Fat Orange scratched him, leaving several hot red marks on his face, which were bleeding.
This was the result of Fat Orange not using any force. If he had used force, he would have to tear off a few pieces of meat...
"Hahaha! What's wrong with your face?"
"snort!"
After glaring at Daniel, who was laughing loudly, Levin took two steps back, quietly climbed out of the window, turned into a black shadow and disappeared into the ground, and left quickly.
Boom!
At the same time, there was a knock on the door, and the housekeeper came to check the room. Daniel quickly jumped on the bed and carefully put away the truth serum.
The next day, lunch break.
"Xi Bei! Didn't your father punish you when you went home yesterday?"
"Don't mention it! My father said that I'm not up to par. Even Jonas can't beat him! He took the magic potion and he's like a monster. Who can beat him?"
In the cafeteria, the maid took down the menu and left. Xibei chatted with her friends about the 'battle' the day before yesterday. Although they lost the battle, they almost won!
Jonas was stuck in the gym. If he hadn't suddenly taken drugs, he would have been beaten violently!
But then again, how could there be so many ifs?
If you haven't fought, you haven't fought. Making excuses won't change the result.
After a while, the maids came over with plates. The canteen at Eton College is not free. It is an a la carte system. You can order what you want. Professional chefs will cook for you. If you have special requests, you can make them in advance.
, such as some rare ingredients...
All bills will be mailed to home, and students do not need to pay them.
Xibei was in a bad mood and had a bad appetite, so he only ordered a piece of meat sauce lasagna. The melted cheese was garnished with a few basil leaves. The meat sauce was mixed with tomato juice and almost seemed to explode. The layers were layered.
.
Picking up the fork, Sibei cut off a large piece of thick brushed lasagna and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing hard as if it was Daniel's flesh and blood.
"You did very well."
At the corner outside the kitchen, Daniel handed the delivery maid a coupon worth 100 gold pounds and said with a smile: "You can take the money and go home, or you can work at Manstein Shipping Company."
"I...I want to go to the shipping company!" The food delivery maid was emotional. Although serving these noble children at Eton College is a good job, the salary and benefits are definitely not as good as those at Manstein Enterprises. More importantly,
The thing is...
Now the workers in the company under Manstein's name are all very popular and very popular!
I heard that the boss is inhumane and gives out bonuses at every turn. The actual money earned by the workers is higher than the apparent salary!
"Okay, since you want to join Manstein Shipping Company...here is my letter of recommendation."
Daniel took out the envelope that had been prepared in his arms and handed it to the delivery maid: "Don't linger, report to the head office immediately. As long as you become a formal employee of the company, I guarantee that they will not dare to embarrass you."
"Thank you, boss three!"
The maid bowed to Daniel, ran away on tiptoe, and poisoned the Tory family's children. This was a serious crime. After the investigation, the maid who served the food would definitely be traced. Considering this...
Daniel has already arranged an escape route for the food delivery maid.
Join the Manstein family business and become a regular employee. Not to mention the conservative party, even the Prime Minister will not dare to do anything!
After Xibei had almost eaten and the medicine had taken effect, Daniel straightened his clothes and walked out of the aisle.
After eating the last bite of lasagna, Xibei picked up a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth gracefully. Just as he was about to get up and leave, the companion next to him suddenly poked his arm:
"Hey, Jonas is here!"
Looking up, Sibei's face darkened when he saw Daniel striding towards him. After the other person approached, he asked angrily: "Jonas, are you lost? This is the seat for senior students! You are not welcome!"
"
There was a dispute here, which immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding people. The anger that had not subsided showed signs of rekindling. The children of the Conservative Party and the Liberal Party immediately divided into two groups and surrounded them.
"Sibei, I heard that you were taught a lesson by Count Austin?"
"Ah."
Xibei sneered: "It's not just me, my father was also scolded by my mother...Eh?!"
"Oh...it turns out that Earl Austin is a strict wife." Daniel smiled.
"My father was not only a strict wife, he also teamed up with my mother's family to assassinate his brother, and then he became the Earl of Austin..."
Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, Xibei's face turned pale, and he wanted to cover his mouth, but it was too late.
The people around him looked at him with something wrong.
"me..."
Xibei was sweating profusely and backed away repeatedly. His voice trembled and he said, "How could I say this... No... No..."
Shutting your mouth is the best choice. Xibei also realized this and quickly covered his mouth and wanted to rush out of the crowd, but the door was firmly blocked by the Liberal Party and he could not get out at all.
Daniel snapped his fingers: "Anton! Palmer! Go up and help."
"okay!"
Anton and Palmer stepped forward, one on the left and the other on the right, to lift up Xibei and forcefully open his hands covering his mouth. As soon as the other conservative students wanted to step forward to help, they were shouted back by Daniel, who picked up the chair with one hand:
"Everyone, stop! If anyone dares to take another step forward, I will break his legs!"
"Jonas! What are you going to do!"
Robertson, the eldest son of Prime Minister Winston, shouted: "If you dare to attack Sibei, Earl Austin will not let you go!"
"Oh, Robertson..."
Daniel showed a weird smile and asked, "Is your father an upright man?"
"Why do you ask this?" Robertson asked doubtfully: "My father is the Prime Minister of the Cabinet! Of course he has bad conduct! I saw him having sex with the maid at home the night before yesterday..."
The sound stopped suddenly, Robertson's body was shaken, his eyes looked frightened, he looked around, and his breathing became rapid for a moment.
The students next to me were almost shocked.
It's not uncommon to have sex with your own maid. What nobleman doesn't have a little quirk?
But there are really not many people who dare to say it in public.
And he's the Prime Minister...
"Don't answer!" Xibei struggled and shouted, "This is a trap! A trap!"
Seeing that the warm-up was almost over, Daniel also got to the point: "Sibei, does your father hate the Liberal Party?"
"Liberals? My father thinks you are a bunch of rotten bugs!"
While struggling, Sibei shouted uncontrollably: "You are just a group of idiots who have reaped the dividends of the times! Upstarts with no background! You are not worthy of being compared with the Conservative Party! We are the orthodoxy of the kingdom! Orthodox!"
The students from the conservative faction were dumbfounded, while the students from the liberal faction stared angrily and clenched their fists.
"enough!"
Seeing that Xibei wanted to continue speaking, Robertson became anxious: "Sibei, please stop telling the truth! Even if the Liberal Party is a group of blood-sucking worms lying on the kingdom, we cannot slander them in person! We must behave like a noble! Swear behind our backs.
That’s it! There will be a time to liquidate them in the future!”
"oh--"
Daniel narrowed his eyes:
"Liquidation...Robertson, does the Prime Minister want to liquidate the Liberal Party?"
