Chapter 2861 Angel Elixir

Chapter 2861 Angel Elixir

It was just an ordinary Wednesday for the local citizens, so when Father Augustus, who was talking to familiar believers in the prayer hall of the Dawn Church, saw Shad coming, he was really shocked:

"Did something happen?"

He took Shad and walked quickly to a secluded part of the church corridor, and Shad's umbrella was placed in the umbrella tube at the church door:

"Priest, nothing happened. Why do you all think like this when you see me?"

Father Augustus patted his chest:

"I'm glad nothing happened. Now all five members of the team except me have gone to Vista Glade. I certainly don't have any good thoughts about you coming to see me all of a sudden. Detective, what happened? You didn't look good when you walked in just now."

Xia De touched Mia and was about to speak, but suddenly realized that he had forgotten Ajelina after he came back with the key.

But he couldn't go back now, so he asked:

"Priest, I just went to Huntington and met that lady. She talked to me about time. I know you also have some memories about ancient times, so what do you think about the world tree?"

The priest was surprised and said:

"What do I think? Of course I treat it as a story. Although I do know some things about ancient times, I was really born in the last century. Detective, I don't know such ancient things either."

"I mean, what do you think of the phrase 'The world needs a world tree'?"

The old priest was startled, blinked his eyes and seemed to suddenly remember something, then laughed:

"So that's what you want to ask. Where there is birth, there is death, but where there is death, there is birth. The seeds fall and become saplings, and the saplings grow into trees in the wind of time. The big tree will fall one day, but the new saplings will surely grow in the corpse of the big tree.

Life and death are like this, all mortals will die, but new hope will also be born in death. "

"Priest, please don't tell me riddles. You are not a fortune teller. But do you mean that the chosen one of time will really become the next tree?"

"What? Did I say that?"

The priest asked suspiciously, suspecting that Shade had not listened to what he said:

"Now that you put it that way, I can understand what you're worried about. The last time you dealt with that dead apostle, you told me that you suspected the spirit that came to our place for off-campus practice in the summer was the eighth one, so you're worried that she'll turn into a tree, right?"

Rat Augustus's complicated life experience made him fully understand the anxiety of these young people. The old priest put his hand on Shad's shoulder, of course, the side without the cat:

"Detective, let me give you a piece of advice. You don't have to worry about this. Or rather, you don't have to worry too much."

"why?"

"I thought you knew more about the ancient gods than I did, so why don't you understand this? So far, when have you ever seen the ancient gods give mortals a predetermined fate? Although the great ones who have passed away care about this world, they never stipulate that someone must do something as arranged in a script.

Even for the great prophecy of the Whispering Poems, don't there exist many candidates and possibilities? If everything is predetermined, then wouldn't all your efforts be a joke?"

Xia De suddenly realized:

"If everything was destined, then Luvia wouldn't have experienced so many different Sixth Ages, and I wouldn't have appeared."

His originally anxious mood gradually calmed down. Seeing this, the priest smiled with relief, thinking that his ability to persuade people had not declined. He comforted him again:

“Even if the tree is destined to sprout again, there will always be opportunities for you to choose.”

"The lady from Huntington also told me to think about my final choice."

Shade continued, and the priest nodded in understanding:

“So the journey is not a one-way street. Now that you have anticipated the worst outcome, you should find ways to avoid it.

Don't worry about it now. If you don't want her to be a tree, then at least tell her so that she knows what to choose when faced with a choice. There is still a chance before everything happens. Besides, everything is just speculation, right? "

After resolving his worries, Father Augustus seemed to become more persuasive than ever before. Seeing Shade smile, he also smiled:

"Winter is coming soon. Although the work at the church is still a bit busy, I can take some time off. Detective, if you need my help, don't forget to call me. Also, doctor, I feel relieved that you are looking after him, but it is still too risky for him to do that."

He sighed, and asked Shade to follow him to temporarily leave the church and go to his potion workshop in the basement. Today, Priest Augustus can stably produce the original "Holy Water No. 3" and is currently trying to make "Holy Water No. 2".

If Holy Water No. 3 corresponds to a Keeper-level relic, then Holy Water No. 2 is a Sage-level relic, which is a qualitative change, so the priest has not succeeded yet. But after Shade took the "Skeleton Eyeball" from the dead apostle, the priest did gain something else:

"Take these, they will definitely be useful to you."

This time, Father Augustus provided a total of ten test tubes in a small suitcase. All the glass test tubes had the emblem of the angel of death on their surfaces, and nine of them contained pale golden liquid, while the liquid in the last one looked like golden liquid gold.

Both light gold and bright gold are very pleasing to the eye, and the potion looks extraordinary with droplets splashing out of the surface:

"I will be able to provide such potions steadily in the future, but the production speed will definitely not be as fast as holy water. Angel elixir has only one function, which is to restore spirits."

The priest looked quite proud, but he had reason to be proud:

"Spirit is not pure energy, but a mixture of energy, information, rules, thoughts, etc. Therefore, there is currently no ordinary potion that can restore spirit in large quantities. But detective, answer me a question, is there anything else that is also a mixture of energy, information, rules, etc.?"

Xia De stopped Mia who wanted to sniff the test tube:

"Soul. Wait, priest, you are not using souls to make medicine?"

After saying that, he immediately shook his head:

"No, you certainly won't."

"Of course not, but I can now capture the traces and echoes of the soul, and use them to make these angelic elixirs. One bottle of these pale golden potions is enough to restore most of the soul of any middle-level warlock. Of course, this refers to ordinary ring warlocks, and you are definitely not included. Even a high-level warlock can recover a lot after drinking one bottle.

As for the bottle of bright golden angel elixir, it is a perfect potion that was made by chance and cannot be replicated. Combined with the pink essence you showed me, it is even enough to support you to cast most of the power of a puzzle lock. Yes, I mean your puzzle lock. "

Shade then picked up the bottle of bright golden elixir, and the abundant spirits and elements affected the surrounding environment as he shook it. Even though he had seen other incredible potions made by priest Augustus, this potion still surprised him.

This batch of ten bottles of "Angel Elixir" is all the priest has in stock at present. As his proficiency improves, the delivery speed will definitely increase. It's a pity that this special elixir is just like the priest's skill in making "holy water". It can only be used by himself. Otherwise, the priest may soon become richer than Shade.

But the good news is that the production cost of these "Angel Elixirs" is not high. After all, the most important "remains and echoes of the soul" can be collected by the priests just by comforting the resident souls. Therefore, the priests priced these potions at the same price as the No. 3 holy water.

In other words, from now on, the "holy water" for healing injuries and removing curses and the "angel elixir" for restoring spirits have become commodities that can be shipped in large quantities on the priest's goods list. The limitation that the elixir can only take effect once in a short period of time prevents it from becoming a strategic material for the time being, but as Shade brings more bones and the priest further masters the power of the angel of death, Shade feels that sooner or later he will be able to make a potion that restores all spirits.

The potion priest did not charge Shad for this batch of potions, but he hoped that Shad could let more ring sorcerers of different levels drink them and bring them feedback from their use, which would also make it easier for him to continue to adjust the medicinal properties and improve the formula in the future.

At the same time, probably because the remains that Shade brought back this time were "eyeballs", the priest's inventory list had several more alchemical items related to eyes. He even claimed that he had mastered the medical technology of "transforming ordinary people's eyes into eyes that can see souls", but the side effects of this technology were too great. After all, if you see the dead, the dead will also notice you.

Because he was still thinking about Ajelina, Shad declined the priest's invitation to stay for lunch.

However, before leaving, he gave the priest all the treasures of the Hoy family found in the cave except for his share, as he had promised himself, so that the priest could sell them when he had time and donate the money to the church to help more people survive the difficult winter ahead.

Finally, Shad managed to return to the city in the forest before lunch. He was worried that after he took Mia away, others would forget Ajelina, but fortunately, at least her sister had not forgotten her. When he returned to the hotel and just walked to the third floor, he heard Dorothy scolding Ajelina, and judging from the tone, it was definitely Leicia.

"what happened?"

So Shade stopped Miss Bell who was passing by in the corridor and asked. The pale witch apprentice lowered her voice and answered:

"Please don't say it was me who said that. Her Highness Ajelina seemed to be trying to use her invisible nature to break into your room, but was discovered by Miss Louisa who was anxiously looking for her."
