Chapter 284: The Venom of the Homan Python
There was a roaring flame burning in the fireplace, and the dry firewood crackled from time to time, sitting at the wooden table next to the fireplace, Jiang Feng quietly looked at the book in his hand.
Seven days have passed since Mrs. Florence received the Advanced Meditation Method Door. As promised, he ended his retreat at dusk and went to the Brotherhood of the Hearth's room, where he waited for news from Helis.
Glancing at the wall clock on the wall, the hour hand had already passed directly above the twelve, Jiang Feng sighed softly and closed the book in his hand.
It looks like we won't be able to get there today.
Just as he was thinking this, the door to the activity room was pushed open, and a figure in a wizard's robe stumbled in.
Noticing the bloodshot in the whites of Hairis's eyes, Jiang Feng hesitated slightly.
"You ......"
"Sorry to be a little late." Haylis said in a slightly hoarse voice.
From eight o'clock to twelve o'clock, you are more than a little late.
Although I want to complain like this, now is obviously not the time to dwell on the problem of being late. Through the faint light of the fire, Jiang Feng could vaguely see the deep bags under her eyelashes and the gloom in her pupils.
"Well, you're really late. But what is more concerning is the injury on your body...... Need me to take a look at it for you? Jiang Feng asked.
"No, just a small injury." Helis stretched out her right hand expressionlessly, the space distorted slightly, and a flesh-red fruit shaped like a heart landed on the table, "What you want is here, the contract is complete." ”
The slowly wriggling peel was as if it were still alive.
Jiang Feng stretched out his hand and picked up the fruit that looked like a heart, and after a brief scan, he nodded slightly.
This is indeed the fruit of the bone tree.
Just as he finished confirming, a light blue arc of light drew a circle in front of the two of them, and instantly dispersed a particle of light, blowing towards the fire next to him.
After completing the contract, Helis got up and prepared to leave, looking at her back, Jiang Feng suddenly spoke: "The venom of the Homan Python is not only a simple poison, but also a curse from the spiritual level, it is useless to use only purification potions. ”
Helis's footsteps stopped, and she looked back at Jiang Feng, a look of disbelief in her eyes.
“…… Do you have research on Homan python venom? ”
"No, but the description of the Homan python, I saw it from some of the books in the hands of the aborigines when I was passing through the eastern islands of the wizarding continent......"
"Can you concoct an antidote to inhibit toxicity?" Although the expression on his face did not change at all, Jiang Feng could still feel that Helis's tone was obviously dyed with a hint of excitement.
However, it was a pity that Jiang Feng was not 100% sure that he would succeed, after all, the Homan Python, he had only seen a description of it in the public collection area of the Emerald Tower Library. More specific items are stored on the second level of the library, requiring a minimum Level E clearance to access.
Permissions!
Suddenly thinking of something, Jiang Feng's eyes flickered slightly, and he coughed lightly in the face of Helis's eager gaze, and said softly.
"I can try."
"What does it mean to try?" Hayris's eyebrows were slightly raised, and her pale blue eyes stared at Jiang Feng, "Declare in advance, I won't be your experiment." ”
"Do you have a better option?" Jiang Feng shrugged.
With her left hand tightly grasping her right arm, Helis stared at Jiang Feng silently.
The venom of the Homan python is different from other toxins, and cannot be detoxified by universal antidotes, although she is taking purification potions, but only to inhibit the spread of the toxin.
Some time ago, she had been to the bazaar on the second floor of the Wizard's Tower, and had heard from a potions master she knew that this poison could only be resolved with a targeted antidote. Because there is no trace of the Homan Python's activities in the central part of the Wizard Continent, it is naturally impossible to find an antidote to the Homan Python's toxin on the market, so it can only be entrusted to a wizard who is proficient in potions to solve it.
However, she had already asked Hanlot and Tarita before, and both of them were at a loss for the toxin. As for registering the commission in the mission center, that was the most helpless choice, and it was also Helis's original plan...... Registering for the purchase of potions, especially antidotes, not only requires the cost of more magic stones, but also when the antidote is configured, I don't know when it will be.
As if having made some kind of decision, Helis stared at Jiang Feng and said slowly.
“…… I promise you, if you can solve the toxin on my body, I am willing to pay a thousand magic stones. But if you fail, you won't get anything in return. ”
A thousand magic stones!
After hearing this price, Jiang Feng couldn't help but be speechless in his heart.
It seems that this guy's gains in exploring the ruins are really not small, taking out a thousand magic stones at a time, and he doesn't even frown. Is this a bank robbery? Or is the ruins themselves a bank for ancient wizards? If there is such a thing......
“…… I'm not exactly for the reward, I'll do my best anyway," Calming down, Jiang Feng curled the corners of his mouth in a relaxed manner, and after a pause, continued, "The information about the Homan Python Venom is located on the second floor of the library, and it requires E-level clearance to enter. If you can go to the second floor of the library and take out the materials I need to prepare the antidote, the success rate will increase a lot. ”
"This is impossible," Haylis vetoed without hesitation, "the literature in the library is not allowed to be borrowed twice, especially not to students whose privileges do not meet the standards, and if it is discovered, it will be handed over to the law enforcement team immediately." ”
"Then help me increase the contribution value," Helis's answer had long been expected, and Jiang Feng threw out the proposal he really wanted to say, "It just so happens that I also need the contribution value to exchange for the permission to enter the upper library." ”
"E-level clearance requires a thousand contribution points, and you have been in the pharmacy department for less than a month, where can I find you so many contribution points?" Helis shook her head.
"I don't know," Jiang Feng shrugged, "but Hanlot said you have a way." ”
“……”
Haylis was silent for a long time, then slowly spoke, only saying two words, "Reward." ”
"You mean the Academy's commission?" Jiang Feng frowned slightly, "I have investigated, and the entrustment registered by ordinary students has no contribution value. Only a small number of commissions related to academic topics will be rewarded, and a small amount of contribution value will be awarded. ”
Helis scoffed and shook her head, "Those commissions? If you want to save up 500 contribution points with those commissions, you don't want to make it up when I'm cold. ”
After a pause, she looked at Jiang Feng and continued.
"You've probably heard about the law enforcement team."
