Chapter 7: The Horror Spell Practiced
After the feast, not long after Rick had finished tidying up his studio that night, Miss Hana came in to make Lady Yulan's medicine.
Hana has nothing to say about her rejuvenated studio, and what she says when she steps into the studio is, "I know you're poor, don't get in my way!"
Xi Ke nodded knowingly and stepped aside. Hana walked over to the red brick wall and patted her palm on the bricks. He didn't know what she was doing, so he stared more seriously. Hana slapped it again, this time in a different place with the fifth palm. She kicked the wall, then jumped on the spot because of the pain in her foot, slapped the wall again, and slapped the wall again with her fifth palm.
The bricks moved slowly, revealing a small space behind the wall, and Hana pulled out a heavy book from it. It turned out to be the action of opening a secret door.
Xi Ke looked at the book, the title of the book was "The Secret Recipe of the Secret Legend of the Archmage" in flower font, the book cover was quite shabby, and it looked like an ancient book of hundreds of years. However, when Hana took the book to the workbench and opened it, Syk saw that the layout of the book was very familiar, and he immediately remembered that it was the Potions textbook used by the mage to make up the school. It's the same on the inside, but the outer skin is different. Xike has a very bad association that Hana deliberately hides this very basic book in the wall like a super secret recipe, and if necessary, she can take it out in front of her boss and lie to him that she is very good.
Xi Ke didn't really want to admit it, but this association was very reasonable, and it also explained that Hana, who Weishenme didn't trust him, would actually perform how to open the secret door in front of him, because the secret door and the things inside were just acting props.
Hana noticed that Syk was looking at her, and said to him, "What kind of eyes do you have!
Such a simple formula, Xi Ke has already memorized it, and there is no need to check the book at all.
Hana took out a large pile of tools and placed them on the workbench, and the entire countertop was filled. There were a lot of things in it that Xike didn't recognize. Hana read the trumpet and didn't come to work, and Xike said hopelessly, "He's dead. 」
"I know, he's always playing dead to avoid work!" Hana didn't look back, and continued to line up a large string of saws of different lengths on the table, as if she didn't take out all the saws, she couldn't even get a small branch.
The first, most basic, and most important step in making potions is water purification. Syk filled the cauldron with water, and Hana began to draw circles around him.
The teacher who taught Potions at the Magic School was a very, very old gentleman, and he seemed to be an important member of the Potions Society, in short, a very important person in the Potions community in his country.
In addition to teaching jishu in class, that gentleman often told them some life truths. He once said that the reason why he abandoned the university and came to teach the school was because those mage college students only wanted to take the courses that were now popular, had no interest in the "outdated" Potions, and had a terrible attitude towards learning. The average age of the make-up school students is relatively old, he knows what he is doing, and he will grasp every learning opportunity, so he would rather come and teach the make-up school.
He said that by watching a mage practice potions, you can know all of his abilities. Potions require the most important abilities of a mage: focus, observation, and rigor.
A long time ago, only a small number of people could cast spells by talent, and the reason why modern people can learn to use spells is the result of the systematic study of those people's casting methods by their predecessors. Potions was the vanguard of that transitional period, the oldest of all sorcery disciplines. Concentration, observation, and rigor are essential skills for research.
Syk carefully watched how Hana practiced potions. She used the magic circle to purify the water, which looked more dazzling, but the shape of the magic circle she drew was crooked, and there were many places where the symbols were written incorrectly, and a lot of the powder used was spilled on places where it shouldn't be. She didn't memorize the circle, and she didn't check the pictures in the book every time she wrote a paragraph.
To Xike's surprise, the circle was really activated. The water kept bubbling up that it shouldn't have been, and Syk was terrified.
Then Hana began to look for materials. Thanks to the fact that she had put the label outward, she could see at a glance where she wanted the material. She picked up the jar of "Chabi bird feathers" with the rudder feathers, took out two of them, and grated them and threw them into the pot. In this formula, these two materials can be substituted for each other, yes, but the effect is relatively poor.
She picked up the pot of "Peggy Bulbs" with garlic in it. These two are completely different, after she opened it for two seconds, she seemed to remember that this jar was a fake, put down the jar, glared at Xi Ke first, and then picked up the lower layer of the "Dark Grace Fruit" with a replacement function, poured out a handful and threw it into the pot.
After taking a few more ingredients, Hana obviously began to be in a trance, this kind of work of constantly observing the state of the materials and strictly comparing the recipe was too much for her. She picked up the jar that read "Sparse Moth Scale Powder", opened it and poured it directly into the pot, and the room was filled with the aroma of chocolate drinks.
Hana fell down only to find that the jar was also a fake, she opened her mouth wide and panicked for three seconds, then regained her composure, and continued to throw other materials as if what she had just put was indeed sparse moth scale powder.
Seeing the pot slowly emit a strange blue-purple fluorescent light, and a little spark from time to time, Xi Ke was quite uneasy. Wait a minute, will this studio be blown up?
Seeker thought of a solution, and he said to Hana, "Miss Hanna, I'll just get such a simple thing. This way I can also get the opportunity to practice, but I am not as skilled as you, and it will take more time, so you can go to the lounge and wait until I am ready for you to come and accept, how about it?"
Hana glared at Xike with a relieved expression: "Don't mess up, you'll lose my face!"
Xi Ke wanted to answer "yes yes yes" very perfunctorily, but he held back, nodded and said, "I will try. 」
Then Hana quickly escaped from the studio and returned to the romance shijie of the spiral spire.
Rick poured the pot out and started over.
He scrutinized Hana's toolpile and found that there were no basic tools, just fancy and useless things. He had no choice but to take a ruler out of his bag of medicinal herbs, fix one end with chalk, and make a circular mark on the table. Spell SymbolsSome studios with a lot of work will dig out the glyphs out of acrylic board and sprinkle powder directly on them to form the words, Hana doesn't have that kind of useful thing here. Xike rummaged through the tool cabinet and finally found an unopened packet of powder paper on the ground floor. He folded the paper in half, put the powder in it, and slowly poured out the pattern little by little.
He poured the herbs on the paper again, examined them carefully, picked out the parts that could be used, and modified the recipe according to the real thing in the studio.
He had been busy for a long time, and by the time he had finished casting the spell, boiled the cauldron, and put it in the brick insulated cabinet, it was time for him to leave work. So he put the whole bunch of tools Hana had taken out (all of them useless) back in place and left the studio. Miss Hana was not in the lounge, and he couldn't find Hana, so he left work by himself.

Rick went back to his room and got a change of clothes and moved to the bathroom. As he walked through the hallway, he noticed a missing spark between the two rows of candles. One candle went out. He paused and began to wonder if he should help the owner of the house to make up the fire.
He felt something change in the air, but he couldn't figure out what it was. The silver box around his neck swayed slightly, and the contents reminded him that something was wrong.
Xi Ke took a deep breath, closed his eyes, stared intently at the darkness in front of him, and then slowly opened his "eyes" with his eyelids closed.
The shijie he saw and what he saw before he closed his eyes became very different. He saw a lot of silvery-white glowing ripples moving in the darkness. He is now looking at shijie with his "third eye", which is what the "spiritual vision" sees, another face of shijie.
Normally, these energy ripples should be roughly evenly distributed, but now Xi Ke saw many very bright and thick streams of light coming out of the human head a little higher, all the way to the ground. Nick compared, and the streams of light came from the position of the candle. Rick tried to look underground, but all he could see was a chaotic fog, not what was going on underneath.
At this moment, the silver box shook violently, striking the skin under the collarbone of Rick. Nick quickly opened his eyes, and someone was coming.
Xi Ke took a step back, then took his clothes, and walked to the corner not far in front of him as if nothing had happened. He hadn't even reached the corner when someone appeared first.
Syk saw the floor and walls illuminated by the firelight, and then Lady Yolan shuffled over with a lighter stick in her hand. She wore a silk pajama with thin shoulder straps, and she wore nothing underneath, and her plump figure was in full view. But there was no way to feel sexy or anything like that, because half of her face was a shocking blue and purple and swollen, and the whites of her eyes had turned red, and her lips were puffy. A large dark brown scab on the broken skin at the corner of the eye. Looking at her bare arms again, there is also abnormal puffiness and a large patch of blue spots.
She looked at Rick, her gaze was not focused on Tick, but on a distance behind Tick. The eyelids drooped weakly, and the facial muscles seemed to be in a state of wanting to lift but not having the strength, and the expression seemed to be nothing. It felt as if she wanted to put on a social smile, but she was resisting it.
"These candles are not to be extinguished. She said weakly, and lit the extinguished candle with the ignition stick in her hand. She said, "Don't touch it. Then he looked at the candle flame that had stabilized and said, "The candlelight is so good, fragile, burning itself, giving light to people, and always crying. 」
Xi Ke nodded violently. After she shuffled past Rick and left, Tick grabbed his clothes and ran to the bathroom. He was in dire need of hot water right now to wash away the chill from his body.
