Chapter 8: The Bone Spear
The structure of the Mage Tower is not complicated, the lower floor is where the professor's servants live, and the spiral staircase goes up to the top of the tower where the old professor lives.
The spiral staircase was not long, and Will walked up alone, entering a circular tower room.
The tower is spacious, but not very transparent, except for two semicircular stone windows on the south and north sides.
Rows of candles lit up the entire tower room. The old professor's life must have been boring, and his dwelling was full of experimental utensils, herbs, and alchemy, except for a simple wooden bed.
The reason why the Blood Dragon Root Elixir is so difficult to refine is that the materials used to refine it are not only precious, but also difficult to come by. The second is that its refining process is complex and cannot tolerate a little error. The third is that the effect of the medicine is very short after the refining is successful, and it needs to be drunk within ten minutes after the refining is completed.
Although the refining and storage conditions are harsh, the Blood Dragon Root Elixir is a good medicine, which can stimulate the potential of the human body and regenerate it when life is dying.
The Templar was lying on the old professor's simple bed, apparently badly wounded. He was accompanied by a sword-wielding servant in soft armor, caring for a badly wounded Templar.
The Sanctuary is a title and an affirmation of the knight's strength by the people of the world. In the vast northern lands, there are only a dozen knights who can obtain this title. And one of them lay here, his face bloodless, his body could not move, and he fell into a coma.
"Professor, how did he get hurt like this?"
At this moment, there are only four people in the tower room plus Will, obviously the people have not yet arrived, taking advantage of the free time, Will asked.
The Templars were undoubtedly formidable and capable of taking the head of the enemy from all hosts. It stands to reason that even if he loses to the Frost Giant, it is very easy to return with his whole body, and he will not be injured like this.
"Aosta's strength is certainly strong, but his temperament is a little straighter. The old professor said with some regret.
“.......!”
This guy can't beat the frost giant and has to fight hard, but he will be beaten up by fat!
"Although the giants may seem thick and crumpy, they are no less intelligent than humans, and can even be said to be cunning. Aosta thought he was ready, and laid siege to the frost giant with three legendary magicians. Unexpectedly, the other party had already laid a powerful forbidden demon enchantment in his residence. If it weren't for Aosta's hard work, I'm afraid the four of them wouldn't have been able to come back. ”
"Hmph, that giant is so wicked! so cunning!" said the young servant with his hands clasped into his hands.
“.......!”
Will now believed the Professor's words, and sure enough, the Templar was very straightforward, otherwise he would not have trained such a servant. You took someone to raid the giant's house, and blamed the family for being prepared and laying a trap.
What a quality of sincerity!
"Professor John, I'm late! ”
At this time, a cheerful girl sounded behind Will.
The visitor was a cute girl with a petite figure and a double ponytail. Will had some impressions of her, and the other party seemed to be Lan Li, the head of the medical department of the student union, who was very popular among the male magicians of the Nibelungen Academy.
This one is one of Will's recent Pretty Girl Wizard figures.
Lanley was very lively, walked up to Will, patted Will on the shoulder, and said, "You are Will Schumacher! I have heard of your name for a long time, you last beat David Wellington for selling papers, and I heard that he ended up smashing several tables in anger." Well done! I've already seen that big man unpleasant, every time I want to smuggle some forbidden herbs, that guy stops me, it's so hateful!"
"Awards, awards!" Listening to the encouraging words of a beautiful girl who was two heads shorter than himself, Will said with some embarrassment.
"Okay, it's not too early, let's start early! Lan Li, you will be in charge of the purification part, Will, you will be in charge of distillation, and I will control the rest." ”
The process of blending is very smooth, and the next thing is the continuous cooking time, in order to maintain the medicinal properties of the blood dragon root, it must be cooked for forty-eight hours without interruption, during which it needs to be distilled and purified again.
"Alright, you guys will come back tomorrow!"
The old professor stared at the potion in the bottle in front of the double crucible and said.
"Yes, Professor!"
After the blending, it was already late at night. The sky was full of stars, and Will was walking on the forest road of the college with a beautiful girl, going to the student dormitory.
"I heard you're studying shaping magic with Professor Umir?"
"Yes!"
"It's a rare thing. Professor Umir's shaping magic is an ancient magic he acquired during his travels in the underworld of Heim. I begged Professor Umir last time and he refused to teach me for a month, so why did you say yes so quickly?"
Lan Li looked incredulous, and finally took a step forward, stopped in front of Will, pointed at him and asked, "Did you promise Professor Umir anything?"
"I just agreed to let him participate in the academy competition!"
"It's as simple as that?"
Lan Li looked at Will in disbelief, her big round eyes as if she wanted to see something from his expression.
"Okay!
Lanley patted Will on the shoulder and walked side by side with him. is worthy of being a famous beautiful girl in the academy, and such an old-fashioned action makes her very cute to do this.
"This competition has alarmed a lot of people, and if you want to perform, you have to prepare well. After all, Meltia's kiss is seductive! You're going to have to meet a tough opponent!"
At the intersection of the boys' dormitory and the girls' dormitory, Lan Li reminded when she parted.
Will was also a little helpless, he agreed to participate in the competition, but did not promise to win the championship! After all, in Will's view, the competition itself is not a big deal, the important thing is the benefits that this competition can drive, that is the most valuable.
So, go along and lose the game, and then go sell the figures!
......
Inside the Mage's Tower.
Beneath the double crucible, the blue flames continued to burn. The tower room was quiet, the air was mixed with the smell of herbs, and the old professor was motionless, but he suddenly stood up, took out a black spar from his wide sleeve robe, and threw it into the crucible.
With a bang, a burst of black flames rose from the cauldron.
The strange scene quickly caught the attention of the sword-wielding servant. "Professor, what's wrong?"
The professor lifted his sleeve slightly, and a bone spear from Bai Sensen instantly pierced the throat of the sword-wielding servant.
Blood was dripping drop by drop, but the old professor didn't care at all, and let the corpse fall to the ground, but a strange smile appeared on his face.
