Chapter 52 Re-Entering the Torch Forest
Drank it down.
Then Al put the test tube in his hand back into the backpack, sat cross-legged on the ground, and waited for the medicine to take effect.
I didn't make Al wait for a long time, and those milky white 'quality strengthening potions' took effect quickly after swallowing them in the stomach.
It has to be said that the medicine made by the ancient wizard has a very good effect.
When the effect of the medicine started to take effect, Al immediately felt as if an invisible palm was constantly stroking his body.
And when the effect of the medicine was fully exerted, these feelings became more and more intense.
Al vaguely felt that the muscles on his body were constantly being torn and reshaped.
The bones continued to make a light clicking sound, which was obviously being strengthened.
Correspondingly, the feeling after taking the medicine changed from the comfort at the beginning to the pain now.
However, this was barely within Al's tolerance.
Take a deep breath, although it is not the time when the sun is rising, practicing the "Dawn Breathing Method" will get twice the result with half the effort.
But Al still kept adjusting his breathing rate, and began to practice the "Dawn Breathing Method" with the help of the medicine!
As Al began to breathe at a specific frequency, the potion energy in his body seemed to find a breakthrough in the flood.
At an extremely fast speed, it spread to Al's whole body, accelerating the strengthening.
However, with the acceleration of the strengthening speed, the strength is strengthened.
The pain caused by strengthening the physical fitness in a short period of time also became more intense.
With his eyes tightly closed, Al's breathing gradually became irregular, and he finally stopped practicing the breathing technique.
With both hands gripping the floor tightly, unconsciously, a few fingerprints were scratched on the floor.
In the end, when Al scratched the floor and broke it, he also temporarily passed out because of the constant pain.
When Al opened his eyes again, night had fallen, and the moon was shining brightly, apparently it was midnight.
Standing up slowly from the floor, Al suddenly felt as if he had been hungry for three or four days, and his body seemed to be empty.
Right now, he has only one thought in his mind, that is to find food quickly and fill his stomach like a bottomless pit.
The black bread and jerky in the backpack were quickly eaten up by Al.
However, after being strengthened by the 'Quality Strengthening Potion', Al urgently needed various foods to supplement his energy.
If it was in ancient times, there would naturally be 'energy potions' prepared by wizards instead of food as energy supplements.
But this kind of 'energy potion' was a commodity in ancient times, which was equivalent to compressed biscuits in Al's previous life.
It is something that replaces food and supplements the energy needed by the human body in large quantities.
It is precisely because of this that there is no such thing as a high-end commodity stored in the laboratory of the ancient wizard.
This also makes Al now need a lot of supplementary food after taking the 'Quality Enhancement Potion'.
Touching his still extremely hungry stomach, Al put on his cloak, opened the door and walked out.
The bar at midnight is not as popular as before, so the bar on the first floor is a little quieter.
However, there are some people who just like this quiet atmosphere, ordering drinks and having a quiet drink on the side.
Before walking to the bar, Al looked at Wei Na and said, "I don't know what to eat here, prepare some for me."
Wei Na looked at Al, raised her beautiful eyebrows, then nodded and said, "What do you want to eat?"
Al directly took out a gold coin from the purse in his arms and placed it on the bar.
Then he opened his mouth and said, "I'll give you all the gold coins, so give me some more food."
Wei Na blinked, put away the gold coin, turned around and walked directly to the kitchen behind the bar.
Soon, Wei Na called the chef's voice came from inside, followed by various sounds of the chef cooking.
Listening to these voices, Al couldn't help drooling.
Fortunately, Wei Na and the chef acted quickly and did not keep Al waiting for a long time.
I saw Wei Na holding a plate in each hand, and one on each arm.
A total of four large plates full of food were lined up in front of Al.
Looking at the food in front of him, Al didn't say much, just picked up the knife and fork on the plate, and started to work.
He took a bite of steak the size of half a palm, and swallowed it without chewing a few times.
As for the bread and eggs, Al basically stuffed them in his mouth and swallowed them.
Not to mention noodles, basically the timing of stuffing into the mouth and swallowing happens at the same time.
There are four plates of food, each plate is enough to make a burly man burp.
But these four plates of food were all quickly wiped out under Ayer's hands like a small refreshment.
When Al stuffed the last piece of bread with steak sauce into his mouth, he realized that the whole bar was watching him.
The corner of the mouth under the hood of the cloak twitched slightly, Al coughed lightly, and looked at Wei Na.
"Excuse me... Is there any food left, bring me two more plates."
While talking, Al put a gold coin on the bar again, and looked at Wei Na quietly.
Wei Na mechanically put away the gold coins, then looked at Al with a surprised expression on her face.
"You've been in the room these days, you probably haven't eaten anything."
Hearing this, Al immediately replied subconsciously: "No, I ate the food I brought, it's just..."
As soon as he said this, Al suddenly realized something was wrong.
In the room these days?
Why these days?
How many days did I stay in the room?
A series of three questions quickly emerged in Al's mind.
After thinking about it, Al pretended to be casual, and said to Wei Na: "By the way, I've been staying for a few days.
I have been sleeping in the room during this time, but I don't have any sense of time.
I don't know if the money I gave before is enough, if not, I will add some more. "
Upon hearing this, Wei Na suddenly said: "If you don't tell me, I really almost forgot.
You have lived here for six days, and that gold coin has been spent. If you still want to live, you need to pay. "
While talking, Wei Na took the two plates brought out by the chef from the kitchen and placed them in front of Al again.
Al knew very well that it was unnecessary and impossible for Verna to deceive him.
So he knew that he had indeed been unconscious in the room for six days.
At this time, there were only five days left before the start of the Wizards Gathering.
Thinking of this, Al nodded slightly, and said: "I will stay here for a day, I think the money just now should be just enough."
"That's right, the gold coin just now is just enough for your two plates of food and accommodation."
Hearing that Wei Na confirmed her words, Al nodded and started fighting with the food again.
...
The next day, there were still four days before the Wizards' Gathering.
Early in the morning, Al got ready to salute, put on his weapon, and left the bar.
And following the flow of people again, he slowly walked out of Yuanshan City and walked towards the Torch Forest.
There are extraordinary creatures in the torch forest, which is known to everyone around it.
Therefore, there are basically no people who dare to enter the Torch Forest.
What's more, there are no herbs or precious things produced in the Torch Forest.
Therefore, few people come to this mysterious forest.
Today's Al, after taking the 'Quality Enhancement Potion', has successfully promoted to the level of a middle knight.
Not only the physical fitness has been greatly improved, but even the mental strength has been slightly improved.
Entering the torch forest, Al immediately took out a pure white smooth mask from his backpack and put it on his face.
This mask only has slender holes of corresponding size at the two eyes, giving people an extremely rational feeling.
The mask was made by Al himself. After eating last night, it took a little time to make it out of a piece of wood.
For this reason, Al also spent a little money on coloring to complete the white mask.
After putting on the mask, it is covered by a large cloak and hood.
Al is confident that it is impossible for ordinary people to see his identity.
According to memory, Al was walking in the forest, heading towards the place where he met the ape last time.
Sure enough, as Al expected, the ape was still in the place where he was last time, waiting for the start of the wizarding gathering.
As for the ape, when he saw Al with the mask on, he was taken aback for a moment, and then reflected.
"Magician, you're finally here. I thought you weren't going to come."
Magician was the nickname Al had given himself before, so when he heard what the ape said, he immediately nodded his head.
"Ape, people like us don't have a teacher to teach, so a lot of communication is necessary.
Otherwise, I'm afraid it's impossible to become an official wizard after exhausting my life. "
Al's words obviously hit the ape's heart.
The ape nodded heavily and said, "Yes, the Holy Sword Empire is indeed not a place where we wizards can live.
I heard that on the other side of the Western Continent, the Church of the Lord of Glory does not exist there.
Wizards are the top group of people there. It is said that there are many wizarding organizations in those countries.
As for those wizard organizations, there are countless powerful official wizards.
It's just a pity that it is basically impossible to go to those countries.
Civilians are not allowed to enter or leave the border of the Holy Sword Empire. Under the blockade of the government and the church, we cannot pass through at all. "
It was the first time Al heard about the news that the ape said, and Al couldn't help but feel the shock in his heart.
Involuntarily, Al longed for the places where he could freely study and practice witchcraft, as mentioned in the ape's words.
Thus, a seed of wanting to leave the Holy Sword Empire was quietly planted in Al's heart.
Just wait for a certain day, a certain suitable opportunity, when the seeds germinate, it is time for Al to leave.
As for when that day will be, when will the right opportunity come...
Perhaps, that will be in the not-too-distant future.
