Things about the female knight in black stockings

Chapter 224 Research Success

"Has your research yielded results so quickly?"

In Suzuland's alchemy workshop, Valensa couldn't wait to ask as soon as she arrived:

"How about it? Is the risk of using this potion high? Can I use it? Can mass production and replication be achieved using magic and alchemy?"

"There are only preliminary results. What you said is still far away."

Suzuran rolled her eyes at Valencia angrily and gave her a few test records:

"Well, through trial and observation of the goblin potion, I have probably figured out the principle and effect of this potion, but I haven't figured out the specific production method and materials yet."

"Did you directly inject the medicine into the goblins for testing?"

Valencia glanced at the test records and frowned slightly:

"This potion is limited. If you use up the potion and still haven't produced any research results, wouldn't it be a complete failure?"

"Don't worry, all your precious potions are here, nothing is missing."

Suzuran smiled and took out a crystal bottle and shook it gently in front of Valencia:

"Of course I know that these potions need to be used less, so I won't use them easily until I am sure that I can make them...those that are injected into the goblins are all replicas."

"replica?"

Valencia frowned, and then carefully looked at Suzuran's whole body. Soon her eyes lit up, and she reached out to grab Suzuran's chest and took out a necklace from there.

The chain of the necklace is just ordinary sterling silver, but the hexahedral red gemstone at the top of the necklace shines with mysterious magic.

"It is indeed this thing! One of the most precious treasures of alchemy, the Philosopher's Stone can copy almost anything by consuming magic power!"

Valencia played with the small red stone in her hand and couldn't help but sigh:

"The Nola Chamber of Commerce is so generous. It is willing to give you something that even money cannot buy."

"It's just a loan. You have to return it after you use it."

Suzuran snatched the Philosopher's Stone pendant back:

“However, being able to be copied by the Philosopher’s Stone means that this potion is still a mortal thing and can be completely analyzed and mass-produced.

Replicas of the Philosopher's Stone are too expensive and time-sensitive, making them unsuitable for long-term storage or sale as merchandise. "

"Well, I understand."

Valencia nodded:

"So? What exactly does this potion do?"

"It's a drug that targets the mind."

Suzuran explained sternly:

"This drug will stimulate the mental power in a rather... well, rough and weird way, making the mental power materialize like a mutation, turning it into an existence similar to a summoned beast but without self-awareness.

It feels more like there is an extra part of the body.Even goblins can control spiritual entities with precise control like arms and fingers after a short period of adaptation. "

"Well, I've experienced this myself."

Valencia nodded.

The man she met when grabbing the potion was obviously a civilian, but after using the potion, he quickly became able to skillfully control the existence that looked like a stand-in to fight, which shows that the ability given by the potion is easy to master.

So Valencia is more concerned about another point:

"Does this kind of spiritual entity have some special abilities? Or can it only fight at close range based on its appearance?"

"This is..."

Suzuran hesitated, obviously not sure:

"Currently, it seems that at least the mental entities that appear on the goblins do not have any special abilities, and they can only fight with fists during battle.

But I also remember that you told me that the enemy you met, his spiritual entity could not only easily cut through the steel shield, but could even cut down the holy light, right?

This is like some kind of special ability... so I can only answer you, it still needs research. "

"Then continue to study."

Valencia was a little disappointed:

"I heard that your research has produced results, I thought it was some major progress..."

"There is no major progress. I can only find a preliminary research direction... What I didn't want to tell you originally was that Lovelei insisted on reporting to you."

As Suzuran spoke, she pushed Valencia outside the alchemy workshop:

"Okay, continue to be your good student... If you really want to help with my research, go and have a good relationship with the eldest lady of the Nora Chamber of Commerce, so that I can use the Philosopher's Stone for a while longer. . This thing is really convenient to use for research.”

"……All right."

Valencia didn't refuse.

More than two months have passed like this. Summer has completely entered the continent of Frenoa, and the weather has begun to get hotter.

Zhan Zhan College is about to have a month and a half summer vacation.

For more than two months, the Church of the Sun has been trying its best to search for the necromancer. Unfortunately, the necromancer seems determined to stay dormant. There has been no more action, and the search for him has made little progress.

Valencia's cheap senior sister, Miss Phantom Thief, never showed up, and the other revelers were also quite peaceful during this time.

Wei came to play twice more and brought a lot of original research and development materials for the transformation potion, which was of great help to Suzuran's research.

Finally, less than 10 days before the Zhan Zhan Academy's holiday, Lovele once again approached Valencia excitedly and said that the research on Suzuli had results and could be put into use.

In the same alchemy workshop, Valencia and Suzuly sat opposite each other.

Compared with a few months ago, Suzuran was obviously much more tired, and even the dark circles under her eyes could be clearly seen on this body made with alchemy.

But starting from today, she should be able to have a good rest.

"Here, luckily you are worthy of your honor."

Suzuran pointed to two bottles of potion, one red and one blue, on the table in front of her:

"One is safe and stable but has limited effects, and the other is very effective but has serious side effects. Various unknown risks will arise after use. It is recommended not to use it unless you are desperate."

"understood."

Valencia is not an adventurous person, so she quickly put away the red bottle, only holding the safe and stable blue bottle and looking at it carefully:

"What effect will it have if I use this? Will it condense into a spiritual entity that can only fight in close combat?"

"If you use it directly, it's like this... For you now, it can only be regarded as the icing on the cake."

Suzuran smiled and nodded, then changed the topic:

"So I recommend that you use it smartly and find a carrier for your mental power, such as your usual weapons and equipment.

Using it this way will put less burden on your body, and the consumption will be almost negligible, and the weapons and equipment that carry your mental power can also become like your hands and feet, and can be freely controlled by you. "

"Like this."

Snapped.

As Suzuran spoke, she snapped her fingers again, and the toolbox beside her opened automatically. Various tools flew flexibly in the air, and a pen flew to the table and started writing quickly.

Chapter 225 Old Equipment and New Abilities

"Have you already used this potion on yourself?"

Valensa understood it at a glance. She stretched out her hand to grab the scalpel flying in front of her eyes. Unexpectedly, the scalpel was quite flexible and she couldn't catch it after several attempts.

Of course, Valencia didn't take it too seriously, but even so, it was enough to prove that Suzuran's manipulation of the scalpel was very flexible, almost the same as ordinary people's hands and feet.

"Well, the last one to conduct the experiment is myself."

Suzuran nodded:

"As you can see, I have been injecting the blue medicine for half a month, and everything is fine so far without any adverse reactions. It is completely consistent with my theory."

"Okay, I see."

Valencia is quite satisfied with the result.

For warrior cultivators, a weapon and equipment that can be controlled freely like hands and feet is indeed more useful than a spiritual entity that can only fight in close combat.

The invisible nature of spiritual entities is quite powerful in technological civilization, but in the magical world there are many ways to see spiritual entities, which can be used for sneak attacks, and are useless to people with keen intuition.

It would be okay if this spiritual entity could have various special abilities like a substitute, but that would require a deeper stimulation of the human spirit, which would be very risky.

There is no need to take such risks now, just use a safe and stable version.

And Valencia already has an idea on how to use it.

After getting the detailed instructions from Suzuly, Valencia returned to the academy and prepared to use special potions that can develop spiritual power.

Valencia now had quite a few of her usual weapons and equipment, but she barely hesitated before deciding which one to use to carry her spiritual power.

The alloy buckler that accompanied her through the most difficult period of land reclamation, and was finally divided into six equal parts by the dragon tooth dagger.

Originally, Valencia planned to make it into a Noble Phantasm after advancing to Star Glory, but now it seems that she can resurrect this piece of equipment in advance.

When she was watching anime in her previous life, Valensa thought the shield of a certain Gundam heroine was very cool. She had always wanted to get one for herself, and now she finally had the chance.

In her room, Valencia took out the blue potion and six equal parts of the alloy buckler, and began to use them according to Suzuran's previous instructions.

The process was smooth and the method provided by Lily of the Valley was very reliable.

As the effect of the blue potion was fully exerted, Valencia soon felt that the six fan-shaped alloy shield fragments were connected to her, as if they were part of her body.

It is as flexible as hands and feet to control.

Whoosh whoosh.

The fan-shaped alloy shield fragments flew rapidly in the room, leaving behind a trail of cold light.

Then they quickly gathered at Valencia's arm, accurately merged into one, and once again turned into the strong shield that once helped Valensa block countless attacks.

The shield that can separate and reassemble on its own is really cool!

Valencia's eyes lit up.

The controllability has been tried personally and it feels great. The next step is to test the combat performance.

She left the room and went to the back of the dormitory building.

"go with!"

With a slight scolding, the alloy buckler on Valencia's right arm split into six again, turning into six sharp fan-shaped blades and flying into the woods.

Dancing around, shuttling.

Although it is not as good as the dragon tooth dagger, the physical properties of the buckler alloy are definitely not weak, and are even better than most high-quality enchanted weapons.

Conventional armor cannot withstand this sharpness at all, and the same goes for trees.

Many trees in the grove were easily cut off by the fan-shaped alloy, and the cuts were very smooth, like tofu cut with a kitchen knife.

It wasn't until the fan-shaped alloy flew about 500 meters away that Valencia felt that it would be a little difficult to continue to control it. She retracted the fan-shaped alloy and formed a buckler on her right arm again.

Judging from the current situation, Valencia is actually quite satisfied with the reborn alloy buckler, but she is still a little unsatisfied and she wants to improve it again.

Although the current alloy buckler is flexible in maneuverability and capable of attacking and defending, its offensive and defensive power still cannot exceed the upper limit of the physical properties of its alloy.

If you encounter a magic weapon like the dragon tooth dagger again, you will still have to give it to you for free.

It would be nice if the intensity could be increased a little more.

This is not Valencia's whim, but a practical idea.

Since this alloy buckler carries part of Valencia's mental power under the influence of the potion, it can be said to have become a part of Valencia's body... Can it be strengthened with the power of the mind?Even use it to launch offensive magic?

Give it a try.

To be on the safe side, Valencia did not control all the sector-shaped alloys at once, but only controlled one of them to float in front of her, and concentrated on imagining.

She imagined the fan-shaped alloy as her own sword, and by continuously outputting the power of her mind, she imagined that her sword would be faster and stronger.

efficient!

Valencia could clearly feel that the power of the mind was beginning to work, but it was a little more expensive than when she used it to strengthen herself, estimated to be about five times.
