Chapter 40: Potions and Magic Patterns

Elixir is a very magical thing. In the world of Azeroth, although the alchemist profession is not so popular due to the high price of its materials, potions have never been lacking in the side of any adventurer. From the most basic recovery potions to the most advanced potions that can change the tide of battle, these things wield their magical powers in the vast lands of Azeroth, benefiting everyone.

And now, in addition to the guys in Azeroth who have benefited from it, there are two more people - Emiya Shirou, and Rin Tosaka, who knows the benefits after trying it.

It's just-

"This ...... Is there really no problem with drinking it?" Although Zhao Mian didn't know exactly what was going on, according to what Tosaka said, it was indeed a student of Emiya, who had been exercising for a long time, and now he was looking at the so-called potions in front of him with some suspicion that were exuding colorful light, and even some of them were still tumbling, and a little bubble was slowly rising in them, "Mian Sang, it's not that I don't trust you. But are you really sure that these things don't have all kinds of chemical effects when you drink them, and then they explode?"

"Well, it's going to explode. Without the slightest hesitation, Zhao Mian nodded.

"Huh?!!!" Compared to Wei Gong, who had a broken face, Tosaka, who had only drunk a bottle not long ago, and the medicinal power was close to dissipating, screamed, she touched her abdomen with a somewhat ugly face, and then glared at Zhao Mian viciously.

"But I really don't want you to drink it all at once, right?" Ignoring the somewhat sharp gaze cast by his side, Zhao Mian explained to Wei Gong to himself, "Although it is true that these potions can bring you a lot of gains, there is an old Chinese saying that it is called 'medicine is three poisons', and the use of these potions will also cause unnecessary burdens on the body, because the power it increases does not appear out of thin air, but the part that you don't normally use is squeezed from your body." However, as long as it is properly adjusted afterwards, then there is no major problem...... Of course, this is worth it for a guy with a weak constitution like you, and if you are a veteran fighter, then he will probably be able to use these potions for a long time without worrying about the side effects. Also, don't mix the potions, or drink several potions at the same time, as this can have unwanted consequences - such as explosions, poisoning, and ...... into something else. ”

"In other words, these things are equivalent to some kind of stimulants?" After listening to Zhao Mian's explanation, Tosaka, whose face had improved slightly, asked angrily, "Long-term use is harmful to the human body, and mixed use will also produce unknown chemical reactions, although these things do have very powerful power, but it seems that they can only be used as auxiliary means--well, although it is enough during the Holy Grail War, and when the Holy Grail War is over, there will be enough time to recuperate." ”

"Benefits always come with risks, and so does the acquisition of strength. SABER SPOKE, SHE SAT QUIETLY BESIDE EMIYA, WITHOUT ANY SMILE ON HER FACE, COMPARED TO THE CASUAL SITTING POSTURE OF OTHER PEOPLE IN THE ROOM, HER SITTING POSTURE SEEMED EXTRAORDINARILY FORMAL AND SERIOUS, "IF YOUR OWN STRENGTH IS NOT ENOUGH, YOU WILL HAVE TO TAKE A CERTAIN RISK TO GAIN POWER BEYOND YOUR OWN BOUNDARIES." Strong power requires a strong mind to control, and if you don't even have this level of psychological preparation, it's better to stay away from the battlefield. ”

“…… At this level, it is necessary!" Almost gritting his teeth, this sentence popped out from between his teeth, Emiya Shirou stretched out his hand quite firmly, and grabbed a bottle of potion on the table that was emitting green gas, "If you need to implement your will, then the power used to execute it is necessary, if the power can only come from this for the time being, then I gladly accept it!" After speaking, he picked up the potion, raised his head and prepared to drink it all - and then the potion in his hand was taken away by Zhao Mian.

"What are you anxious about, drink this kind of thing when you fight, it's better not to drink it usually. Zhao Mian put the potion in Wei Gong's hand back on the table, and then stuffed the bottle tightly again, "Besides, I haven't indicated the specific purpose of these potions, you didn't even ask and blindly took a bottle and poured it down--do you want to make yourself die stronger? After all, even if they are dead heroes, they do not lose their glory. ”

"So, the potion matter is over for the time being. While Zhao Mian was cleaning up the potions on the table, Tosaka lightly picked up two bottles of blue potions from the table, put them in front of him, and then said, "Mian Sang, you should have something else to tell Wei Gong, right?"

"Other things?" Somewhat confused, Emiya glanced at Saber beside him, and then said, "If you increase your strength, aren't these potions the final answer? Is that enough? Is it the next step?"

"No, it's actually a matter of improving your combat power, and in the case that Sakura can't participate in the battle, increasing the possible combat power is the only way for us to do it now. After taking all the potions except for the two bottles of magic recovery potions in front of Tosaka back into the space bag, Zhao Mian took out the space road marker, "So after discussion, Tosaka and I agreed that it is a good way to engrave the magic pattern on you, although because your own strength is not strong, and some of the magic patterns are not very useful on you." That's why we're going to engrave only two magic patterns on your body to increase your mana condensation rate and mana regeneration rate. ”

"Although projection magic is not an extremely magic-consuming spell, but if the projected thing is a treasure, it is a different matter, not to mention that it takes more magic to liberate your true name, even if it is supported by a potion, you can only release it once. Tosaka was satisfied with the potion left by Zhao Mian, she was different from Wei Gong, after trying it, she inquired about the effect of some of the potions, and the two bottles of potions in front of her were things that she had long been in love with, just like a cat that got dried fish, Rin Tosaka explained with a satisfied expression, "So increasing your ability to sustain combat has become a focus." ”

"Let's get in touch, and at about ten o'clock, a friend of mine who has a little research in this area will come over and engrave the magic pattern. Zhao Mian put down the passage plate in his hand and said, "As for now, you who went to make up for sleep after breakfast should be hungry, Sakura has been preparing food for a while, and if you calculate the time, it should be about the same." Let's go to dinner first, and we'll talk about the rest later. ”
