Chapter 43:

Kane woke up, and as soon as he woke up, he saw Kakireć's smiling face, and his attitude was the same as when he faced Ruan. He asked Kane with concern if there was anything wrong with him and how he felt after the potion had entered his body.

Kane was about to speak, but Kakirech felt that it was not easy for the two of them to stand here and talk like this, so he pulled Kane to the side of the lounge, and Kane was startled when he entered the room, which was small but strangely arranged. In front of him was a huge glassware, in which was soaked in a light blue liquid a purple salamander, and its body was full of various tubes, and his eyes were closed and his mouth was slightly open, so that he could not tell if he was still alive.

On the left wall hangs a large diagram of the structure of a salamander's body, which is spread all over the wall. Kane looked at the structure and then at the salamander in the glassware, and he had no doubt that it was the salamander's body structure.

Kakireć found the kettle from the table full of bottles and jars, and poured Kane a glass of water, "Here, let's have some water first, Mr. Kane." He handed the glass to Kane.

Kane reached out and took the water, the temperature was cold, it seemed to be the contemplative flower tea brewed a long time ago. If this tea is just brewed and drunk hot, the taste of the flowers is OK, although it is a little bitter, but the aftertaste is sweet, it is a good health tea. And now this cup is cold, the taste is definitely very different, not only the taste is more bitter than before, there is no sweet taste, and there is even a bit of fishy smell in it.

Kane put the cup down, he looked at Kakireć and said, "Just ask." ”

"Haha, since that's the case, then I'll ask directly. I wonder if you ever felt what happened after that potion entered your body, um—" Kakirech thought for a moment, "is there a feeling like a soul being separated from the body." ”

He stared at Kane expectantly. Kane thought about it, but answered his question truthfully, "Yes, my body is detached from my soul, and then it seems that I have been sucked into another world by some kind of suction, and that world looks like the hell depicted in the book, with lava, skeletons, and ghosts. Opposite, there is also a fire dragon in the magma ocean. Then I walked into a black forest, where I saw a huge salamander, bigger than any salamander I had ever seen in the Colosseum before. ”

Then I was sucked back by a huge suction, and in the air I saw a huge tower, so far away that I couldn't see it clearly. Then I came back. After saying that, Kane saw Kakirech walking around the room, his eyes burning and his mouth as if he was muttering something like "It's going to be soon, it's going to be enough".

His godly words caught Kane's attention, and he asked what Kakirech meant, but Kakirech quickly came to his senses and waved his hand, "It's nothing." "It's said that he has made another breakthrough in alchemy, thanks to Kane's help. Thinking of having done so many alchemy experiments on himself, Kane once again asked if he really wouldn't suffer any harm from it. After all, he was an amateur in leveling, and he was not familiar with Potions, which was something that only the children of the nobility could come into contact with.

Kakireć firmly replied that it would not hurt anything, it would only make him stronger. Didn't Emperor Wilhelm issue an edict before to explain the nature of potions, these qualified potions will improve the strength and talent of ordinary people in all aspects, and provide the dynasty with a group of powerful warriors, although these transcendents who have been transformed with potions use some kind of alchemy technology, but on the whole they are harmless and pose little threat to the users themselves.

Kakirech briefly explained to Kane the approximate effect of the potion, in order to fully activate the potential of his body, he had used the power of the "butcher", but the "ghost" had not, so the potion was an ordinary primer to stimulate the effects of another potion, and he did this in order to create a transcendent being comparable to the blessed one.

Kane was hard to believe in this explanation, but on the surface he was thanking the strange alchemy old man. If he became stronger one day, Kane would never set foot in this hellish place again. It's not good to be tested like a guinea pig.

He said goodbye to Kakireć, left the Alchemy Test Castle, and rode his horse out of the gloomy place.

After Kane left, Ruan couldn't help but be curious, and even at the risk of being scolded, he had to come to Kakireć to gossip.

"Teacher, what the hell was that potion just now? I don't look like the bottle we used in our previous trials. His face turned to Kakireć.

"Of course this is the bottle we used last time, are you confused by that rock lizard? Yes! Listen, you idiot, hurry up and get your alchemy experiment done, or I'll temper your brains too! "Kakireć's temper showed itself again in Ruan.

The scolded Lu An returned to work in front of his alchemy table as if he had run away. By this time, the sun had sunset below the horizon, and the faint light gently brushed the earth. The orange sun slowly receded towards the horizon, the temperature was slowly decreasing, and when the last rays of sunlight disappeared on the horizon, the chill crept up the treetops and skimmed over the tall walls, and the patrol soldiers who were keeping vigil on the high walls shivered with a chill, and they tightened their robes a little, wrapping themselves against the cold.

Kane warmed himself up with a glass of spirits from the Kahlan Tavern, and before leaving, he asked for a bottle of aged Valeant, which he planned to drink on the road, as not only was the price relatively acceptable, but it was also effective at keeping the cold at bay. The barbarians of some tribes in the Northland are most fond of this wine, and they each bring a bottle to drink on the way before each hunting to resist the cold wave.

There was no fire in the night, no lighting on Kane, and the only thing that could provide him with a little light was the sickle-like crescent moon in the sky, and his horses carried him through the wilderness in the faint moonlight, and drove back to the realm against the night wind that still had the cold smell of winter.

In the middle of the night, Kakirech was alone in the lab conducting an alchemical experiment on the purple salamander that Kane had seen today. It has always been his habit to work alone in the alchemy laboratory in the middle of the night, even if someone wants to stay by his side to help him, or learn a little more alchemy knowledge, he will be ruthlessly refused, and he will drive people away in an unquestionable tone. If he dares to entangle someone again, then he will roar and remind that person that this is his territory!

So no one could stay here late at night to see what he was doing. The only sound in the quiet laboratory was the sound of Kakirech fiddling with the test vial, but soon, in addition to the sound of him picking up a glassware and hitting the metal, he heard another familiar sound in his ears, one he had heard some time ago, as if he had heard it from the young man who claimed to be looking for a holy relic before the last riot on the black market.

Yes! He remembered that the young man had introduced himself as Abydes, a boy of the House of Talen "Winter Hunter", and that the unbelievably old Great Shaman had asked him to come here to seek his cooperation and help the young man retrieve the relics. It's all such a coincidence! Since being sent to Harrence incognito to lay the groundwork for the future search for the relics, Kakirech has spent most of his life searching for the key to the relics.

Finally met the person who qualified to be the key recently, and Abides appeared, a coincidence that surprised him, and Carchirech would not have believed his identity had it not been for the young man who had given him a token from the great shaman.

"Master Kakireć, when will our plan be implemented, the next Dark Altar is ready to open again, we need to hurry." Abides stood behind the master alchemist.

"Taron's boy, we told you not to go overboard, but you just don't take our warnings to heart. Forget about raising that damn bunch of red-eyed rats in Micinro's ghost place before, why did you attack Hank Street last time! All our plans have been disrupted by you! Also, you must have a part in the black market. Kakireć didn't turn around, still going on with his own experiments.

"I can't help it, I raised rats in that slum because I thought that we could use these dark creatures to confuse the eyes of those Holy Sees after we left, so I sent someone to raise rats there in advance. This is also for your sake, so as not to find any unfavorable traces in the future and affect you. As for what happened later, except for the wizard who met the flame demon in the black market, and I did it willfully to do it, the other actions were all done as a last resort. ”

"But you didn't tell us in advance, and we have to clean up the aftermath of the trouble you caused in the end! Did you know that Sulla of the Black Market has been exposed, and he was split into pieces by Gaius and thrown into his damn fish pond! It was only then that Kakireć's voice took on an angry tone, and he looked directly at the young man in front of him.

Abydes tried to look sorry, and he said to Kakireć, "I'm sorry, I didn't take into account the many surprises that came out of nowhere, and there were too many unexpected circumstances. In the future, I will try to consult with you in advance to minimize the unexpected. ”

"Our chances are running out, you can do it yourself, you are the main person in charge of this operation, and if you mess up, you will face the punishment of the shaman."

"Of course, that's... How well is the key to that place prepared? Abrides asked.

"Everything is expected, as long as you prepare for a while, you have to let him absorb all the potions, otherwise when you enter that place, you will be sucked in by the surrounding undead lamps before you get close, and then our efforts will be in vain, fortunately, the effect of the medicine is well controlled this time, and he was summoned back before he got close to the tower." Kakirech wiped the dirty sewage from his hands with a square towel. He reached out and fiddled with the salamander's head, and it was clear from his expression that he was quite satisfied with the test object.

"Can you get an idea of how long it will take? Maybe I have something else to do here. ”

"It may be a few months, sooner or later. You look at the time measurement yourself. With that, Kakireć went back into his lab and got busy, grabbing two bottles of recovery potions and pouring them into his mouth like water.

Abydeus sighed, seemingly unhappy with the time, but there was nothing he could do.
