Chapter 1318 (2/2)
She rubbed her forehead hard, and finally recovered her most basic thinking and language skills, and then questions came out of it, ”what is that? Where did you get it? You've been staring at it all night? ”
”Three good questions. Unfortunately, I'm afraid none of them can be answered accurately. If you insist, it is probably some kind of storage, recording some information through alchemy. And the reason why I make this inference is that it is hidden in a dark grid of this puppet, and that dark grid can only be made by Alchemy. I think they should use the same technology. As for whether I've been staring at it all night, well, it's hard to define. But to be sure, I've been looking at it for a long time, because I really want to find some clues from these eight different runes. As for the results, as you can see now. ”
Alice leaned back in her chair, trying to ease the confusion in her mind. She didn't listen to what Cheese said, but one thing she understood was, ”why can you stare at it for so long? I only looked at it once!”
”We can't confirm it yet. After all, only you and I have seen it. We can't be sure what caused our inconsistent response to it. To know why, we need more samples to compare. ”
Cheese said to stand up, legs did not stand firm and fell back into the seat. He closed his eyes and was silent for a few seconds. He took out a small medicine bottle from his arms. After drinking the contents, the haggard on his face was relieved visibly. The mage thought for a moment, took out the same medicine bottle from his arms, poured a small part of the liquid into the cold tea at hand, and handed it to Alice.
The Huntress hesitated for a moment and drank the cup of cold tea. The taste is hard to recognize in the dilution, but after the cold tea enters her stomach, she can clearly feel an abnormal cold breath flowing quickly into the spinal cord along some invisible pipe, and then the whole person is rejuvenated in the coolness from the tianlinggai to the tip of the tailbone. Only in this vitality, she felt the familiar taste.”Is this poison?”
”Depending on the dosage and the object of use, if it is given directly to ordinary people who have not been trained in drug resistance, it is poison. But it can also be an energy supplement in the right dose. The constitution of demon hunters is better than that of ordinary people, so it's OK to be careful when taking it for the first time. ”
Medicine and poison are two sides of the same coin. Anyone with a pharmaceutical foundation will know this. The toxicity of poison is closely related to its dosage. It sounds simple, but the difference of dose is very, very elusive. In the era of lack of accurate quantitative knowledge, the control of dose can only be given to experience and personal ability, and even a little luck.
Alice nodded. She really felt better. At least now she didn't have to sit down. And in this period of time, the rest of the room began to wake up.
Out of caution and secrecy, cheese didn't show the stone to his companions who entered the hall immediately. He just asked the servants of the mansion to take away the corpse which had no anatomical value, wash it and prepare to eat.
Is it really a goblin? Although part of the body of the assassin's yew has been dead for a long time, it didn't emit any peculiar smell. I'm afraid there's some credit from the assassin's maker. After all, no one wants his killer to be a mobile fly nest.
It wasn't until after breakfast when the servants cleared the table that cheese signaled Alice to close the door to make sure no one was eavesdropping or peeping. It was only after the confirmation that the mage carefully took out the stone from the inside of the grey robe.
