Chapter 1917: Natural Lubricants
"Goo-go......o-go
The green liquid churned in the stone jar, and it didn't emit any heat, but it felt like it was boiling.
Perhaps because this was already the fifth vat of culture liquid prepared, Luna was no longer as curious about it as she had been at the beginning, and she just waited quietly by the side, waiting for the alchemy array under Sarah to finish.
It now seemed that Sarah's earlier statement was clearly quite correct - Luna found that the process of making alchemy potions was not complicated at all, and was even much simpler than the preparation process of many potions. And the reason why they haven't been able to rest until now is really just because of the large amount of production to be made, that's all.
"Almost."
Suddenly, Sarah, who was tinkering with one of her thighs in a rocking chair not far away, stopped what she was doing and said to Luna:
"Let's empty another tank! Be careful, don't spill like you just did. β
Luna's job was simple, nothing more than to use the newly made culture fluid to "change the water" of the stone jars in the room that contained the dolls - drain the old ones and replace them with new ones, without even using their brains. In addition, the amount of this culture liquid, which is refined from water and several materials, is surprisingly light, and it is not tiring to scoop it up in a wooden barrel at all.
While Luna was working, Sarah finally put down the doll thigh in her hand, jumped off the rocking chair and walked back to the stone jar in the middle.
Some of the ingredients in the formation were depleted, but the next one was already prepared at the beginning, and now it only needs to be replaced to activate again.
Just as the two of them were busy with their respective work, they saw that Sarah seemed to remember something, and suddenly spoke again:
"Speaking of which...... Miss Lovegood, this wave of attacks is over for now, and the living corpses should return in a few days. Before leaving, Maca told me that it was necessary to make a round between attacks so that I could keep track of the movement of the living corpses. β
"Oh, that is, are you leaving the Old Town?"
Luna asked as she poured a full bucket of green solution into the empty stone jar. She watched as the liquid fell into the vat and poured onto the motionless new doll inside, drowning it little by little.
"Yes," Sarah nodded, "you probably won't be leaving here anytime soon, so I think it might be necessary to talk to you." β
"Well," Luna said, "then you have to be careful! So many enemies out there. β
"Thank you," Sarah replied calmly, before saying, "But it's not your concern that I want...... I'm just trying to remind you that you'd better not come to my room while I'm away. β
"Okay!" Luna agreed without thinking about it, and then put down the empty barrel again, and came back to her senses and wondered, "Why?" β
"Because I think you'll probably find out there's a cellar underneath my room," Sarah probably wanted to say, but when Luna asked, she immediately said without concealment, "There's a more evolved living corpse in there that I grabbed when I went out on my last patrol - oh yes, the one who was secretly chasing you back then." β
"Chasing us?" When Luna heard this, she couldn't help but think about it for a moment, and then suddenly said, "Oh! Is that Harry's shadow they can't hit? How did you catch it? β
However, Sarah doesn't seem to have any intention of continuing the conversation on this topic. After seeing that Luna had scooped up the culture liquid in the stone jar in front of her, she immediately gestured to the door and said:
"Let's go to the backyard again! It's time to start filling the water. β
"Oh."
Luna obviously didn't have to ask clearly, and when Sarah said this, she immediately put down the question and walked straight to the door.
It's just that while leaving the room, she can't help but secretly say to herself in her heart:
"No wonder it suddenly didn't feel it at the time, it turned out that Sarah had helped us...... Well, Sarah is a good person! β
So the whole night, the two people in the room almost spent the very boring cycle of "preparing the culture medium" and "changing the culture medium". It wasn't until dawn the next day that Luna finally fell asleep next to the pile of doll parts next to Sarah's rocking chair.
"Miss Lovegood, the last tank is nearβ"
Sarah was about to remind Luna to complete her final mission of the night, only to find that she had fallen asleep with a doll's leg in her arms. Seeing this, she had no choice but to gently shake her head and get out of the rocking chair, and with a wave of her wand, the sleeping Luna floated to her rocking chair.
"Do the rest yourself!"
β¦β¦
Luna wants everyone to be friends, because in today's dangerous environment, it is clear that a loose and separate state is not the right choice.
Sarah can naturally feel this, and she is not averse to this practice.
As for the Nag-O-Feyne sisters...... I have to say that many things have been completed now, and it is better to live in harmony than to make everyone unhappy.
After all, Helmo and his army of living corpses will always be the enemy that everyone will face.
So, with Luna's "natural lubricant" as a staircase, the sisters finally seemed to stop minding Harry and the others to get closer.
Early the next morning, everyone who had slept in the atrium all night woke up one after another. Ron propped himself up and complained about the pain he felt all over his body from sitting and sleeping last night.
"Huh? What about Luna? Hannah rubbed her eyes and looked left and right, and after a moment she muttered, "Oh, she seems to have said she was going to help Miss Hohenheim." β
However, at this moment, everyone suddenly heard a burst of footsteps on the other side of the corridor. And then, Luna, who had just been mentioned by Hannah, ran out of the door.
I saw her glance back and forth at everyone in the middle hall, and then muttered:
"Leaving so early?"
"Gone?" Neville wondered, "Who's gone?" β
"Oh, it's Sarah," Luna said after hearing that she was about to go back and look for it again, "Sarah said last night that she was going out to make a round today. I just woke up in her room to find that she was gone. β
Hearing this, Safina on the side waved her hand and said:
"There's no need to look for it, she goes out at dawn the day after the attack on the living corpses, and if she counts the time, I'm afraid she's already walking in some wilderness by this time."
