Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 297 Communication Magic
"Please help me pack the powder of these sleeping flowers and cemetery grass. I want both."

Pointing to the bottles of powdered herbs on the shelf, Angel said to the boy following her.

She came to the folk herbal shop of the fat pharmacist Darkwill early this morning, ready to buy the materials needed to make communication potions. Although the pharmacist was unforgiving and a little bit aggressive when he opened his mouth, the quality of the things he sold was indeed good. .

Unfortunately, his apprentice said that Darkwill left the house before dawn. It was said that he went outside the city to catch some kind of creature that he had been eyeing for a long time. Angel guessed that the other party was still thinking about catching an extraordinary creature to raise. I just hope that this pharmacist with little fighting ability will not die at the mouth of a wild wolf.

Angel's premonition soon came true. Just when she was about to leave after paying, the door of the herbal medicine shop was pushed open from the outside. There were a few bloodstains on his face, and the fat pharmacist walked in awkwardly with a limp. He sat on his recliner as if he had collapsed, and called his apprentice to help him get some healing potions.

"You didn't really encounter something... that kind of creature, and you were caught with a mess on your face, right?"

She happily stepped forward to add insult to injury, allowing Darkwill to taste the feeling of being attacked by a poisonous tongue.

"It doesn't matter, he also knows some things about occult science. In fact, cough, I will be able to tell him the formula of the 'Medicine Master' in a while," Darkwill glanced at the young man who walked into the inner room to get the medicine. He said softly, as if he was seriously injured, "It's a pity that you guessed wrong. I was scratched by a nasty owl, and it also caused me to lose the big dog with shiny black hair. Huh, I guess in the future I’ve never come across anything so beautiful.”

"Have you finally given up on the idea of ​​catching an extraordinary creature directly? Are you going to raise an ordinary animal first and then give it magic potion?"

"There are no other extraordinary creatures in Backlund, they are all about to be wiped out!"

The pharmacist said angrily, then sighed.

"That wild dog's hair is really beautiful..."

"If you want a good-looking pet, why not just buy one? I believe there must be better-looking and more obedient ones in pet stores. You can even choose a hound."

"That would be more expensive than the potion!" The fat pharmacist couldn't help but retort, "And I have to tame it myself like a real animal tamer, so that I can increase the success rate as much as possible when feeding the potion, instead of letting it A hound worth hundreds of pounds drank a potion and was left with a tainted, useless mass of material."

It seems that the pharmacist's next sequence, the "animal tamer", can use extraordinary abilities to reduce the chance of the tamed animals losing control when taking magic potions. No wonder he wants to find an extraordinary creature that suits his heart. It turns out that he wants to make it his own. Combat strength...

Angel secretly noted these points and asked casually:

"Then what kind of magic potion are you going to feed to the animal? Will it become a 'medicine'?"

"Of course it's impossible, then there will be three pharmacists in this store," Darkwill sneered, as if he heard a joke, "And my pet must be able to fight and help me deal with the gangsters who mess with me. I think 'Warrior' is good, and 'Hunter' is also fine, but I don't have the recipe for either."

At the end of the sentence, he began to sigh again, missing the big black-haired dog that slipped away from his hands, and then this regret quickly turned into resentment. When Angel left with the herbal powder, he wrapped the wound with the help of his apprentice. I have already started planning to buy some bird catching nets and catch that owl for cooking.

----

After collecting all the materials, Angel returned to his basement and used a smaller pot to cook a mixture of his own blood, invisible spider silk and several spiritual herbs. According to Laura, this pot of medicine It has to be cooked for four hours until it becomes a viscous liquid before the next step can be made.

While waiting, she examined several extraordinary properties she had on the table nearby, especially the "faceless man" property she used yesterday. Due to the combination with some human tissue, this extraordinary property also appeared human when not in use. It has the shape of leather, but its surface keeps changing, making it dazzling.

After testing, Angel found that this "human skin" can be transformed into various shapes when the user needs it, and each part does not need to be adjusted slowly. It can directly form the corresponding parts according to the faces she has seen. This is why she Combining the faces of several beautiful women he had seen, yesterday's "Happy Witch" was formed.

She guessed that this extraordinary ability is the core ability of the "Faceless Man" sequence, which can be heard from the name of the potion. Unfortunately, it has not been made into a magical item and only has this function, and it can only change the face shape and hair color. , has no effect on other parts of the body.

"This cannot replace the 'Crazy Ring'... Although the ring can only change the shape of the face, it has an effect that is easy to forget, especially for passers-by who did not make a deep impression when they met for the first time." Angel put it down regretfully. He picked up the human skin and picked up the extraordinary properties of another "Dawn Knight". It was also combined with part of Ms. D's body to form a special form that was half a property and half an object.

This object that looks like a bone spur can be transformed into a bone sword with a length of nearly 1 meters under the user's thoughts. The appearance reminds Angel of the sacred object "Sword of the Goddess", but there is no such thing as the "Sword of the Goddess". The effect of being unable to escape.

Holding this bone sword, Angel could feel his strength increasing rapidly, almost half as high as usual. This may be the effect of each sequence of the "Warrior" path.

Unfortunately, when using this bone sword, Angel would have a strong fighting spirit in his mind from time to time, wanting to chop up all the unpleasant objects in sight. This was only a negative effect in non-combat state. In a battle with no time for distractions, this weapon may drive its owner into a state of true rage, and he will not stop until he destroys everything in front of him.

She would rather keep her sanity intact than this costly enhancement.

As for the "Shepherd" extraordinary characteristic directly derived from Ms. D, Angel has no chance to try it, because the abilities it comes with are all authentic "flesh magic", such as flesh bombs, flesh parasitism, and the ability to remain calm. The only ones who use them may be those crazy people in the Aurora Society.

"I'm afraid we have to wait until Mr. Hanged Man finds a craftsman he knows to make this characteristic into a magical item, so that the true ability of the 'Shepherd' can be revealed..."

Angel sighed with emotion and put away all these extraordinary characteristics, looking forward to tomorrow's Tarot session.

……

Four hours passed quickly, and the potion brewed in the pot had turned into a thick dark red color, which looked very similar to the communication potion Angel got from Laura, which made her sure that there was nothing wrong with her production steps.

Putting the potion in the pot into a cup, Angel quickly built a simple altar, using candles to represent himself, and the cup of potion to represent the object of the ceremony. After establishing a connection between the two within the spiritual wall, he lit the spiritual fire to burn it out. "self".

In this way, the potion made from her spiritual blood has nothing to do with her anymore.

Even if the communication potion falls into the hands of the enemy, the other party will not be able to use any tracking or curses to deal with her. The most they can do is to try to apply the potion on the mirror, try to shout through the air, and be furious.

Of course, some special beings may be able to use the spiritual world to come to this side from the mirror over there, but when encountering such an enemy, no matter how I defend myself, I may not be able to escape misfortune...

Watching the potion in the cup gradually cool down, many thoughts flashed through Angel's mind. In the past few days of copying the "Book of Secrets", Angel's knowledge of mysticism has improved by leaps and bounds, and he is no longer the novice he was before.

"Experts of divination and mysticism..."

Muttering, she put the potion into five small glass bottles, put away two of them, took the other three bottles with her, and left the basement.

These three bottles of potion were to be handed over to her companions, friends and subordinates who had connections in Backlund, but before that, Angel was ready to try the effect of the potion.

Opening one of the bottles, she drew out a wisp of dark red viscous liquid with her fingers and smeared it on the full-length mirror in the bedroom, forming a closed oval on the edge of the mirror. Then she used the same method to apply it to the magic medicine she carried with her. Arrangements were made on the mirror.

After pouring a small amount of spirituality, the magic mirror in Angel's hand turned pitch black, and the surrounding dark red liquid seemed to melt and slid downwards, creating several dark red blood stains. Then, she saw her side silhouette in the mirror.

Raising her head, she found that the full-length mirror beside her also had several blood stains on it. The picture inside was the ceiling of the bedroom where she was.

The two mirrors have communicated with the spiritual world and are connected with each other!
