It was already eight o'clock when I took the cat back to the Saint-Andrés Square, and Mia walked around happily because she was back home. She liked this place as much as Shade.
Xia De didn't rest either, but took out the thaumaturgy [Ragley's Leap] learning materials obtained last week, and put them on the desk of the study together with the bundle of weathervane bluegrass he got from Lengshuigang City. A bundle of twelve.
Although weathervane bluegrass is also a herbaceous plant, it looks more like a fern. The part that can be used for Shad's thaumaturgy only accounts for about one-fifth of the plant.
I simply processed two of them with scissors, cut off the useful parts, and carved a long string of ancient mantras meaning guiding directions on the surface of the plants by piercing them with fine needles.
This process is very harmful to the eyes, and the quality of the light source of the gas lamp is far inferior to that of the lights in my hometown.
After finally finishing the plant itself like embroidery, I went out of the window to look at the rainy night sky. Make sure that there are no special astrological signs tonight, then close the curtains, shut the cat out of the door, then turn off the gas lamp on the side wall of the study, and only turn on the gas lamp on the table.
According to the thaumaturgy learning method given by Professor Garcia, first grind the obsidian into stone chips, and mix them with the leg bone meal of the Huas hound. After finely grinding, soak the powder with a mixture of your own blood and water.
Wait until the color of the powder changes from black to white, place the powder in a metal vessel and heat it with a match from below until the water evaporates completely.
After these troublesome steps, the warm powder mixture is ground again, and after it has cooled to room temperature, it is carefully covered with the blue surface of the vane to be treated.
The point is to cover the letters that have been pierced by needles.
Xia De took a deep breath, closed his eyes and stabilized his mind. Put the tray with these things on the corner of the table, softly recite the incantation just now, and then blow hard, as the powder diffuses in the closed study room, the remains of the corroded bluegrass are revealed.
Bite the bullet and eat the powdery grass. Before the dust in the air fell completely, Xia De took out another bluegrass. The thaumaturgy requires the casting material, which is the diluent of the extract of the weather vane bluegrass.
He didn't have any tools to make the extraction liquid at hand, so he could only use a simple pinch to get some juice out, and then put it on the tip of his tongue.
To be honest, it was difficult for Xia De to compare the taste of the powder just now and the plant juice now, which tasted weirder, but it was definitely better than the taste of the frog material.
Looking at the slightly empty study room, he took a step with excitement, then the figure disappeared beside the desk, and then appeared in front of the closed door.
The distance of thaumaturgy is 10 feet (approximately 3.14 meters), but Xia De can feel that his limit is definitely more than that. The effect of the state of "divine afterglow" on this thaumaturgy is to increase the limit distance of space movement. The multiplier of the increase is about twice, that is, Shade's limit movement range should be about 10 meters.
But for a more accurate experiment, you need to wait an hour. Professor Garcia warned that this thaumaturgy can only be used once an hour at most, otherwise it will easily attract strange things.
Of course, this is just a warning from the professor. If Xia De doesn't care about safety issues, and he has enough spirit, he can completely use [Raglai's Jump] as walking. But the interval of one hour is indeed too long. If you can find a way to ensure the safety of space movement, you don't have to worry about it. It's just that if such a thing really exists, Shade will definitely not be able to afford it.
"But this thaumaturgy is simpler than I thought."
It's just that at the moment when the body suddenly appeared, there was a wonderful sense of imbalance. But this feeling will not affect the battle, and it will be no problem to adapt a few times.
[What difficulties do you think you will encounter? 】
she asked softly in her ear.
"For example...because I'm not proficient, only a part of the body has realized the spatial jump, thus causing the separation of the body?"
Xia De guessed jokingly.
[If this thaumaturgy is so dangerous, the professor of St. Byrence would not recommend you to choose it. 】
The material for the thaumaturgy [Ragley's Leap] is the diluent of the extract of the weathervane bluegrass, but it is not necessary for the material to be used, but to put some standard concentration of the diluent on the tip of the tongue, and it can be used at any time within 20 minutes. Use thaumaturgy.
This kind of diluent cannot be made by simply mixing water. It needs a ring warlock who specially configures potions to make it, otherwise a lot of materials will be wasted.
So Xia De just tried a few times tonight, and planned to ask Priest Augustus to help deal with the grass tomorrow.
By the way, you can also ask the priest to help identify other messy things brought back from Lengshui Harbor. As for the origin of these things, it is directly inferred that I met a ring warlock who wanted to leave Tobesk in the black market in the near future, so I bought a bunch of things I don't know what they are at a low price.
"Lengshuigang City deserves to be the most important trade transfer point between the New World and the Old World. Even such rare materials can be found."
When he opened the door and quieted the cat that kept pawing at the door, Xia De still sighed sincerely in his heart. However, he will not go to Cold Water Harbor in the near future. Although he did not leave too many traces at the death scene of Jason Delall, he still wants to avoid the limelight.
"The most important thing is to break into the ruins three days later."
He looked at the night scene outside the window:
"In order to prevent the worst from happening~www.mtlnovel.com~, we must be prepared with multiple hands. If you can save energy, you can save money. The gold pounds in my hand can probably buy some good things."
Time is tight, so after waking up on Tuesday morning, the first thing is to eat, and the second thing is to wash yesterday's clothes, so that I can have clean clothes to wear when I go out.
Then I went out, took a carriage to the Tobesk post office, and sent an urgent letter to Miss Galina, asking if I could visit in the afternoon, and then I went to visit Priest Augustus and handed over the weathervane bluegrass to him deal with.
"Where did you get these plants? The weathervane bluegrass price in the local black market is worth 10 pounds, at least 10 pounds, and it's normal for there to be no news for a few months after the delivery order is posted."
Because it is not troublesome to make plant extracts, the priest took Shad directly to the underground studio he rented. The plant itself is expensive, but when the extract is diluted, each root can get at least 100 drops of liquid.
These liquids are enough to support Shad's consumption for a whole year, not because Shad is expected to use thaumaturgy frequently, but because the diluted liquid and the plant itself will slowly deteriorate, which is also helpless.
