"Hey! Mr. Vio, you are back! What should I do now!"
In the alchemy shop, when he saw Anvis' figure appearing at the door, Langton's eyes seemed to be seeing a savior.
"Well, hello? It's our first time meeting you. Who is this lovely lady?"
Looking at the girl in the store, Anvis asked knowingly.
"I am Langton, Lord Vio! My body became like this after drinking that bottle of potion! And this is your necklace. I drank both bottles of potion while exploring the ruins."
Seeing Anvis's reaction, Langton was stunned for a moment, then his expression instantly dropped, and he feebly handed the necklace back to Anvis.
"Langton...? Oh! I understand!"
He casually threw the necklace back into the drawer. Anvis paused deliberately before speaking. Then he smacked his palms, with an exaggerated expression of realization on his face. He circled around Langton, looking as if he was looking at a work of art.
generally.
"How about it? The disguise potion works well, right?"
"I think it's a little too good, Lord Vio. When I came back, although I didn't meet any enemies, a group of mercenaries surrounded me and even wanted to touch me..."
Having said that, Langton himself felt a little embarrassed about the scene at that time.
"Anyway, what should I do now to remove the camouflage effect on me?"
"Wait for fourteen hours, and the potion's effect will disappear automatically. I've told you before, there is no other way."
Anvis shrugged, and then suddenly spoke in a wicked tone.
"In addition, Langton, do you know that the real effect of that bottle of potion is to change you into what you subconsciously expect."
"Eh!?"
As soon as Avis said these words, both Langton and Leah were stunned. The next moment, Leah looked at Langton with a slightly different look.
"No, it's impossible! I never expected to become a girl!"
Langton waved his hands in a panic, and his whole person instantly became a little confused.
"Hahaha, I know it's hard for you to accept this reality. In fact, I just lied to you. The potion has a random change effect."
Smiling happily, Anvis suddenly changed his tune.
"How's it going? Do you feel more relaxed now?"
"Really? You're not just comforting me, are you?"
"Okay, let's change the topic now. Little Langton, is there any business coming to the store while I'm away?"
Regarding the boy's question, Anvis suddenly changed the topic without answering directly.
With no other choice, Langton grimaced and began to report the specific business situation to Anvis.
"Okay, Mr. Brown from No. 23 Yinque West Street ordered two bottles of Screech Owl potion, Ms. Mary ordered a bottle of Fire Dragon potion, and... His Excellency, the Strongest King of the Starry Sky, needs two sets of miniature life potions."
When talking about the last person, Langton's expression was a little strange.
"I understand. I will send you the necessary medicine later."
After listening to Langton's report, Anvis nodded and waved his hand to close the door. At the same time, a sign that read 'Closed' flew up on its own and hung on the handles in the center of the two doors.
"Since the camouflage potion has been used, you must have gained something in the ruins, right? Don't get me wrong, I don't care what you find in the ruins.
I also have a certain understanding of ancient ruins that restrict the level of those who enter. Only informal professionals can enter, which means that there are only some low-level ruins inside."
He waved his hand to stop Langton who was about to say something. Anvis's figure slowly disappeared into the back room, leaving only a silhouette behind.
"It just so happens that I have some things to deal with, so I'll close the shop early today. You can go back to your room now and slowly study your gains."
When leaving, Avis was also thinking about Langton's changes.
He could feel that there was a special force in Langton's body, which was slowly improving his magic aptitude, and at the same time, his physique was also constantly improving.
He had some guesses about this, and it was nothing more than the strange black talisman that had disappeared, or the effect of some kind of adventure he had in the ruins.
In contrast, Anvis is more inclined to the effect brought about by the former. After all, as a child of destiny, there must always be some golden fingers.
At the same time, in Avis's observation, although Langton's power of destiny was temporarily silent for a while, it has now become active again, and it seems that it will explode again soon.
Moreover, this time is different from the previous times. This time is the release of the power of destiny after a short period of suppression. By then, a crisis that is more troublesome than the previous times is likely to occur.
Returning to his temporary laboratory, Avis took out the Ring of Fidels and the bottle of finished artificial blood.
With the key bloodline, activating the Ring of Fidels is also very simple. You only need to let the ring touch the bloodline.
According to the way he remembered it, Avis dropped the ring into a bottle filled with purple liquid.
As a glimmer of light flashed by, the ring, which was originally like an ordinary item, suddenly produced a faint wave of magic power.
A special feeling came from an extremely distant location.
However, judging from the direction, the location of the treasure still seems to be within the territory of the Ittel Federation.
When Anvis activated the ring, Langton was in his room counting the gains from the trip to the ruins, and was also considering what supplies should be used to pay for Anvis's potion.
"As for the life-restoring potion, one piece of gold and two pieces of star-marked iron should be enough. But the value of the bottle of disguise potion is unknown... Maybe we need to add the two pieces of mithril as well?"
Calculating the value of resources, Langton muttered to himself unconsciously.
"That thing is not worth two pieces of mithril at all. At most, the smaller of the two pieces of mithril is enough."
At this time, an old voice suddenly echoed in Langton's mental sea without any warning.
"Is that so?"
Hearing this voice, Langton showed no surprise.
"However, Your Excellency Vio was kind enough to take us in for so many days, and also promised to treat my sister's crystallization disease for free. Even if I pay more, it's still right."
The first time he heard this sound during the ruins trial, he was indeed startled, but now he is used to it.
According to the voice, he was once a high-level professional, but he was able to escape because he was plotted by his enemies and his body disappeared. Only the remaining consciousness was attached to the amulet and teleported into the chaotic space turbulence.
However, due to drifting in the turbulence of space for too long, this remaining part of consciousness was forced to fall into a deep sleep. It was not until today that it was stimulated by Langton's tenacious and unyielding will that it finally woke up.
Although he is a rational mage and Langton's own talent as a spellcaster is average, he still decided to accept Langton as his disciple.
"Okay, whatever you want, but I have something to remind you. When my consciousness wakes up again, my original enemies may have sensed it and should be on their way here now."
