Chapter 168 "Joker" Potion

Huh, it's finally passed... this is passed...

Hearing Cresta Sesima's announcement, Klein, who had been mentally prepared for a long time, was relieved first, then he was a little confused, feeling that this was not real enough, like a dream.

In his prediction, the examination should be more difficult and longer, but after thinking about it carefully, he feels that the current state is what it should be. If he hadn't digested the "Seer" potion in a month and sought promotion , but waited step by step until three years later, the investigation might not even disturb the Holy Church, and only the captain of the night squad in Tingen City would be in charge.

I thought there would be a link to investigate the family situation and interpersonal relationship... Well, maybe Your Excellency Sesima arrived in Tingen two days ago and completed this step secretly... I thought the inspection would include the completion of the assigned task, huh , This is really overthinking me. The purpose of the test is only to confirm the degree of my digestion of the potion, and whether there are hidden dangers, whether I have a clear understanding of the "acting method", and whether I have shared my experience with others... One by one, the thoughts are on the way. Ryan's mind flashed, making him smile sincerely:

"Thank you, Your Excellency Sesima."

"Praise the goddess!"

Crestel nodded lightly and said: "The promotion is to serve the goddess better and protect the kind believers better. You have to remember this, believe me, it can also help you resist the temptation to lose control, remember , is temptation."

"Temptation..." Klein chewed the word.

Crestel looked at him with dark green eyes, and said very seriously:

"The 'acting' method can help you digest the potion and reduce the risk of losing control, but it is not a panacea, and even in some cases, it will make you confuse the role you play with the existence of yourself, you know, such an opera And theater actors, there are bound to be serious psychological problems, and at a certain point, you can really go crazy."

Remember, you are just acting... This is the only thing to pay attention to that City of Silver summed up, and it is basically consistent with Deacon Sesima's description... Klein nodded thoughtfully, expressing his agreement with the other party's point of view.

"In addition." Crestel emphasized again, "The loss of control is not only related to potions, but also closely related to your own emotional state and mental health. Well, the most important thing for Extraordinary people is to be able to control themselves. Only in this way, Only by resisting the temptation of those evil gods and demons, can we resist the corruption of emotions and desires such as jealousy and greed. Of course, I don’t mean to completely eliminate similar emotions and desires. This is something that human beings, even demigods, cannot do. What happened, um, maybe only certain special sequences can achieve that state.”

"Is it to keep these emotions and desires within a reasonable level, not to be controlled by them, and to do some irrational and abnormal things?" Klein suddenly thought of Old Neil,

Can't help but ask back.

Crestel nodded solemnly:

"Yes."

After answering, a few wrinkles appeared in the corners of his eyes and said:

"This is what I want to tell you. Next, I will give you, um, the formula and corresponding ingredients of the 'Joker' potion."

He bent down and lifted the silver-white box onto the long table, then turned around and moved a few steps to block Klein's view.

When the surrounding light disappeared strangely again, Klein, who was standing in the pure darkness, suddenly realized that the formula and materials were in the box containing the holy object, but his eyes were completely attracted by the pure white bone sword before, and he didn't pay attention at all. Not sure if there are other items in there.

After a few minutes, the light of the gas lamp illuminated the alchemy room again, and Crestel withdrew the box, allowing the things placed on the long table to appear in Klein's eyes.

Among them, the most eye-catching thing is a palm-sized gray horn. It seems to have shrunk from its normal size.

Beside the horn is a blue rose with red lines on its petals, which connect with each other and seem to turn into a grinning human face.

Ha ha ha, woo woo, ha ha ha, woo woo... Klein heard illusory laughter and crying intertwined around him, and saw dots of gray light floating in the air.

An adult Honakis gray goat unicorn crystal, a complete human face rose, well, the main ingredients of the "Joker" potion are all ready! He nodded slightly, and walked to the front of the long table in a few steps.

"80 milliliters of pure water, 5 drops of datura juice, 7 grams of black-edged sunflower powder, 10 grams of golden cloak grass powder, 3 drops of poison violet juice..." Klein looked at the parchment that was spread out, and wrote on it The content was compared with the recipe in my memory.

After confirming that it was correct, he recalled Old Neil's previous demonstration.

Taking a breath and exhaling slowly, Klein restrained his emotions and distilled the pure water needed for the potion with the help of the device in the alchemy room.

——In potion formulas, pure water refers to water that has been repeatedly distilled.

Then, he cleaned the black iron pot and put the auxiliary materials in one by one, as proficient as when he did most chemical experiments in high school.

Since there was no extraordinary material to catalyze it, he didn't notice any obvious changes in the liquid in the iron pot. At most, he could see powder impurities suspended in it.

After completing the prerequisite preparations, Klein turned his attention to the two main materials, and said with sincere gratitude in his heart:

"Whether it's the Honakis gray goat unicorn crystal or the human-faced rose, there is no quantitative description... Perhaps the adult goat's horn crystal or the complete human-faced rose are no different from the same kind in terms of quantity, which just meets the requirements... ...Well, in the mysterious and extraordinary world, this is absolutely possible..."

"In this way, I don't need to worry about putting too much main material!"

After a few seconds of stability, Klein picked up the rose with a human face and threw it into the iron pot.

As soon as this weird flower touched the liquid, it immediately made a sizzling sound, and the illusory laughter around it became more and more sharp:

Hahaha, hahaha!

Without delay, Klein quickly grabbed the crystal and mysterious ram's horn, and threw it into the iron pot as well.

puff!

The scalp-numbing laughter disappeared suddenly, and the dots of gray light floating around quickly shrank into the iron pot.

Klein looked down, and saw that the liquid inside was stained with three colors of gold, yellow, and red. They were intertwined but extremely clear.

Gulu, gulu, the bubbles rolled up and up in the liquid, but they couldn't escape, they could only shatter.

Such a sight reminded Klein of the Sprite in his previous life, and the sparkling drinks in his previous life.

It tastes delicious... Thoughts in line with his national characteristics suddenly flashed in his mind.

Suppressing his nervousness, excitement, and anticipation, Klein transferred the liquid in the black iron pot to a glass bottle with the help of a device.

What surprised him was that no potion remained in the iron pot.

It is indeed a potion that can make people achieve extraordinary things... Klein raised his right hand and stared at the cup of beautiful golden-yellow-red liquid in his palm.

Crestel Sesima, who was next to her, kept quiet all the time, and said with a smile at this moment:

"Don't worry, at least I don't see any problem with your potion mixing process."

"I'm waiting here to deal with some unexpected situations after you took the potion. You can rest assured that as long as the problem is not serious, I should be able to save it."

Well, Klein nodded, but put the "Joker" potion back on the long table.

He undid the silver chain inside the left cuff and held it in his non-dominant hand, and let the citrine pendant hang smoothly over the potion, just barely touching the liquid.

For Extraordinary of other professions, the pendulum method can only divination "yes" and "no". The so-called divination failed.

As a "Seer", Klein has already experimented, and his pendulum method can vaguely determine the degree of "yes" and "no".

His eyes deepened, and Klein silently said:

"This potion is harmful."

"This potion is harmful."

...

After seven times, he opened his half-closed eyes and saw the citrine pendant rotating clockwise, but only slightly.

Clockwise means affirmative, which means that this cup of potion is harmful... The range is very small, which means that the degree of harm is low... Well, potion will cause loss of control, there must be disadvantages, and a low degree proves that there is no problem with the potion... Ryan breathed a sigh of relief, wrapped the pendulum around his left wrist again, and covered it with his sleeve.

At this time, Krestai couldn't help but sighed:

"...You are really a professional fortune teller."

"You must make full use of your own advantages, but you must not rely too much on it, thinking that it is omnipotent." Klein replied in a low voice, and picked up the cup of "Joker" potion again.

Drink it, and I can become a Sequence 8 Extraordinary...

With a flash of thought, Klein no longer hesitated, raised the cup, raised his head slightly, and Gulu drank the potion.

bitter! so bitter!

Not good at all!

He instantly understood what it meant to be good looking but unpalatable. He just felt his whole face wrinkle up, and he wanted to vomit but couldn't.

Immediately afterwards, Klein noticed that his face was flushing, and other parts of his body had similar changes.

He was very sure that he was like a steamed shrimp now, but his spirit was withdrawn, and he became thin needles, which merged with drops of potion and pierced cell by cell.

It was a feeling of "observing" cells without a microscope. Standing there, Klein "seeed" the intruders entering the most subtle areas of his body.

For a few seconds, he felt that he was a robot, being transformed by parts and circuits.

After an unknown amount of time, his own figure was reflected in his mind, as if he heard his own singing voice through the back of his ears.

With the help of this weird reflection, Klein found that he could accurately grasp facial expressions and body movements.

At the same time, his ears were buzzing, and he heard ravings and shouts that had not appeared for a long time echoed around him again:

"Honakis...Freguera...Honakis...Freguera...Honakis...Freguera..."

Phew, Klein imagined cascading balls of light, and slowly entered a meditative state, gradually getting rid of a small amount of spiritual overflow and a slightly uncontrolled situation.

At this time, he clearly knew that he had succeeded in promotion, that he was the "clown" of Sequence 8.
