Beauty Comprehensive 1999

Chapter 514 The Sage's Stone

Looking at the old witch in front of her who pretended to be calm on the surface, but in fact the turbulent aura fluctuations had revealed her inner emotions, Xie Zihao pretended to meditate slightly, whetted the other's appetite, and then said:
"I'm busy with the things at hand now, I'm afraid it will take a while to start refining the medicine after I go back."

Without waiting for the person opposite to be disappointed, Xie Zihao went on to say:

"However, if Ms. Gude can afford the price, it's not impossible to hurry up, even if it's the legendary Philosopher's Stone, it's not impossible..."

"The Philosopher's Stone!" X2
The mother and daughter Fiona Goode and Cordelia Fox exclaimed in unison.

And the few little witches also looked at their principal and the principal's mother in surprise when they heard the words, wondering why these two were so excited.

The little witches don't know much about the extraordinary world. They don't know what the name Philosopher's Stone stands for, and they haven't even heard of it.

But whether it is the supreme witch Fiona Goode, who is the leader of the witches in Salem, or Cordelia Fox, a senior witch and witch principal who has lived for more than 30 years, they all have a deep understanding of the meaning of this name.

At this time, Fiona couldn't care less about pretending to be calm, and couldn't suppress the turmoil in her heart. She grabbed the edge of the table with both hands and asked Xie Zihao:

"Mr. Sherman, can you get the Philosopher's Stone?"

There was a bit of disbelief in her tone, not because she suspected that Xie Zihao was lying and deceiving, but because the Philosopher's Stone was a gift from the gods, a panacea, and a ladder to progress for spellcasters!

This kind of treasure has not been seen for more than 200 years, even if it is an ancient supernatural power that has been passed down for thousands of years like the Salem witches.

Xie Zihao shook his head and said, "Of course it's not the kind of sage's stone made by the great ancient alchemists who can turn stones into gold at will and produce elixir of life, but the main component of the sage's stone, or what the sage's stone produces. The spiritual world gold, do you two understand?"

Fiona mother and daughter nodded repeatedly.

As witches, although they are not as obsessed with magic experiments and alchemy research as those wizards and alchemists, they still have a basic knowledge of alchemy.

The three supreme achievements of ancient alchemy are the Philosopher's Stone, the universal elixir Azot, and artificial humans.

Among them, the word Azot, the universal elixir, is also a synonym for mercury. In fact, Azot is an elixir made of the Philosopher's Stone, and the spiritual gold is actually another form of Azot. This is similar to the oriental alchemy. There are very similarities between the golden elixir theory and terms such as lead and mercury in the art.

Fiona Goode said excitedly:

"I understand. Of course I know the gold of the spirit world. Unfortunately, although this kind of treasure is not the real Philosopher's Stone, the quantity is too scarce. Let alone seeing it, I haven't heard this name in the circle for 20 years... ..."

As for the legendary Philosopher's Stone, it would be a lie to say that Fiona has no covetous heart, but she, the supreme witch, is not particularly strong about the magical effect that the Philosopher's Stone can turn stones into gold and make people go further On the contrary, the Philosopher's Stone can create a panacea that can make people immortal and restore youth, and they have become like a demon in their hearts.

The spirit world gold and Azot are different forms of the same substance, and getting either can successfully restore her youthful appearance and prolong her life.

After hearing Fiona Goode's words, Xie Zihao said with a smile:
"I think even if someone gets it, they won't make a fuss about it. They will keep it in secret and use it for themselves. Are you right, Ms. Goode?"

Fiona nodded repeatedly:
"That's the truth. If it were me, I wouldn't disclose even a little information to outsiders!"

At this time, she looked at Xie Zihao, a young man, with eager eyes.

But at the same time, she felt very headache, because she was thinking about what kind of things she would use to exchange the rare and hard-to-find treasure of spirit world gold with the young man in front of her.

Fiona glanced at the young woman opposite, and then at her daughter, sighing inwardly.

"If only Cordelia were ten years younger!"

The old witch is confident that her daughter's beauty when she was young will never lose to the powerful woman opposite, but it is a pity that Cordelia is a bit older now, the difference is more than 15 years old, otherwise she only needs to give her daughter to For the other party, she didn't believe that this young man would embarrass her mother-in-law because of this matter.

After thinking about her family fortune, Fiona felt that it would be difficult to exchange for even a drop of spirit world gold, and then she thought of the collections of the Salem witches.

"Mr. Sherman, I can't think of anything to exchange for the spirit world gold. It is a priceless treasure, but we may have what you need in the collection of the Salem witches of the past..."

Xie Zihao waved his hand and said:
"It's not urgent. There is still a little witch waiting to be resurrected in the college. How about we discuss it after I witness the resurrection ceremony of the Salem witch tomorrow?"

Fiona also realized her urgency when she heard the words, and quickly covered up and said:
"That's right! The most important thing is to resurrect our little witch, Cordelia, do you need my help in the resurrection ceremony?"

Cordelia shook her head and said:

"No need, mother, I have already agreed with Misty, and I will go to the swamp tomorrow to ask her to help revive Madison."

Although the Supreme Witch possesses the seven powerful and representative witch powers recognized by their school, including the resurrection of the dead, Cordelia instinctively felt that it would be bad if she resurrected her mother, Madison. Things happen, so it's best to proceed according to the original plan.

Rejected by her daughter, Fiona Good's slightly lowered eyes flashed an imperceptible strangeness, and then she immediately showed her iconic smile.

Although she can't tamper with the resurrection ceremony, Fiona feels that even if the little witch wakes up and Cordelia finds out that she killed her, it won't have much impact on her, as long as she can It doesn't matter if it is changed to Lingjin gold to restore youth.

At worst, she will go to other places to enjoy herself in the future, instead of coming to the Witch Academy!

Although she didn't know what her mother was doing, Cordelia still chose the right thing to do according to her instincts. Unlike Fiona Goode, a supreme witch who was selfish and dissolute by nature, Cordelia was a bit of a law-abiding She is a bit too conservative even for many modern women.

In terms of dealing with the world, the principal of the Witch Academy can also be said to be a kind person.

Fiona knows her daughter's character, so she chooses to bully honest people. In the past, she didn't make her daughter angry, but every time she comes back to apologize and say good things, she can make the soft-hearted Cody Leah forgives herself.

In her opinion, the little witch did not die in the end anyway, and the matter was not serious enough to enmity between mother and daughter.

It has to be said that this Supreme Witch has reached a somewhat cold-blooded level in terms of selfishness, but she is still unaware of her remoteness.

Sure enough, in response to those two sentences, people who are good are always confident to be bullied and favored.

These two sentences can be used not only between love, but also between relatives and friends.

The banquet finally ended with the mother and daughter witches having their own thoughts.

After going through the exciting scenes of this day, the little witches returned to their room, still unable to fall asleep with excitement, and chatted together about what happened today.

It wasn't until the headmistress coughed heavily outside the door that the little witches calmed down and fell asleep slowly.

As for Xie Zihao and Melinda, after entering the room arranged by the Witch Academy, they entered the world of mirror, water and moon, leaving only a paper puppet in the room outside for communication.
