Jiang Kehan leaned back slightly, but she had a sudden realization: her success was probably related to the nature of her magic.
Chapter 49 Magical Properties: Deep Sea Ripple
The two stared at the solution in the crucible and couldn't help but gasp softly.
What a nice view.
It emits a pale blue aurora, a deep blue mixed with dark silver, and if you look at it for a long time, you can almost see a dark vortex that keeps spinning, taking your soul into the deepest part of the world.
Jiang Kehan carefully opened her mind. As a qualified alchemist, she needed to fully understand what was special about this potion, even if it might be dangerous.
Unexpectedly, after Jiang Kehan actively connected with the potion using her magic, it brought her not unease and fear, but rather a feeling of being immersed in the deep sea, reaching out to touch the sky.
Beneath the calm surface, turbulent waves lurk.
Good heavens, what is this?
Jiang Kehan opened her eyes and looked at the unknown liquid in front of her, feeling a little scared.
The proper magic property display agent is jet black, but when it comes into contact with a witch's magic, it first turns silver-white, and then some pictures unfold on it, allowing the witch to interpret them herself.
The potion before them, however, directly reversed the natural order, allowing the witch to pose a question, which it then answered.
"What's wrong?" Qingxue looked at Jiang Kehan, who was patting her chest, with some concern and couldn't help but ask.
"It's nothing." Jiang Kehan shook her head, looking at the medicine with some hesitation.
"I'd like to borrow your material deconstruction machine. This potion seems to have a life of its own?"
Jiang Kehan couldn't help but glance again at the calm liquid in the crucible. She didn't even know what she was saying. Was the potion alive?
This is even more outrageous than her growing ten centimeters taller.
Qingxue also became puzzled. She frowned and couldn't help but repeat herself.
"Alive, alive?"
The witch's potion works on principles that involve some of the world's rules. If it's actually alive, wouldn't that make it sound like a wish-granting machine?
How can this be?
This doesn't make sense from the common sense of alchemy. Qingxue looked back and forth between Jiang Kehan and the potion room, and for the first time felt that she had learned nothing but dog food all these years.
"Are you sure? The material deconstruction machine's analysis is basically enough to completely destroy the medicine, and this thing might be a unique item?"
In alchemy, there have been cases where a flash of inspiration occurred and the person involved didn't even know how they replicated it.
Jiang Kehan was quite confident. Looking at the potion, she seemed to be able to hear the other person's breathing, and her lips twitched.
"It's okay, I think I can still copy it. Let's see what it is first."
Seeing that Jiang Kehan was very confident, Qingxue withdrew her gaze with some doubt and let Jiang Kehan take the crucible to the huge machine, which was the material deconstruction machine.
"Just pour it directly into that hole, and I'll handle the analysis for you."
Qingxue was setting parameters on the machine, giving instructions to Jiang Kehan without looking at her.
"Oh, oh." Jiang Kehan looked at the machine like a curious child and poured all the medicine from the crucible into it.
In the witch's mysticism, a potion brewed in one go carries the concept of "completeness," and its effects cannot be determined by pouring in only half of it. Even the slightest mistake can lead to drastically different results.
As the machine ran, the two of them nervously watched the displayed data.
[Unknown potion (Little Witch level)]
[A special potion, suspected to have been transformed by the addition of a large amount of unknown magical energy, has the effect of temporarily connecting with one's own magical energy; oral administration is recommended.]
Qingxue couldn't help but take a deep breath. This was even more outrageous than the potion being alive!
She stared intently at Jiang Kehan, who was deep in thought, with a desire to shake out the knowledge in the other person's mind.
Knowing how to further communicate with magic has always been a source of distress for witches. If they could communicate directly with magic, it would be a tremendous help in both their grasp of magic and their judgment of their own hearts.
The Witch's Slippery Sulphur (Part 4) There is a saying: "The thing that knows you better than yourself must be your own magic."
"Kehan, can you copy it?" Qingxue's face flushed with excitement, she couldn't contain herself, her eyes constantly drifting towards the alchemy area.
Jiang Kehan was currently pondering the relationship between the effects of the potion and her own magical properties. She already had some guesses in mind, but she still needed to actually test them to confirm them.
Hearing Qingxue's excited voice, Jiang Kehan came back to her senses, looked at the other's eager expression, and smiled faintly.
"Of course, we can make a copy right now. After all, based on the analysis, this potion is definitely more suitable for witches to identify their own magical properties than the original."
After all, it was Magic who told you that.
Jiang Kehan took a deep breath, and Qingxue stepped behind her. The two of them walked to the alchemy area and began the operation they had just performed.
As more and more materials were added, Qingxue became increasingly nervous, while Jiang Kehan became more and more adept, secretly counting the seconds and seizing the opportunity at crucial moments to input her magic power again.
In the deathly silence, the familiar aurora illuminated their faces, revealing their joyful expressions.
"Yay!" Qingxue couldn't help but jump up and slap Jiang Kehan with her palm.
Jiang Kehan felt a little smug, but she smiled reservedly and raised her hand to give Qingxue a high five.
"It's not time to celebrate yet. Let's test the results first, since the parsed description is still quite vague."
Jiang Kehan suppressed her excitement and rationally poured the medicine from the crucible into a special test tube, solemnly looking at the medicine inside.
How long is "temporary" and what is the method of communication? These are all very important.
The closer one gets to success, the more cautious one must be. Jiang Kehan raised her head and, under Qingxue's gaze, drank the medicine in one gulp.
It had almost no taste. As the medicine entered her body through her mouth, Jiang Kehan smacked her lips, savoring the taste.
Yes, the taste also needs to be recorded. We'll see if we can come up with a few delicious flavors and then raise the price a bit.
Jiang Kehan, who was short of money, had already set her sights on this potion that seemed to have great potential.
But before she could recall the ways she made money in her past life, a strange feeling enveloped her like a giant jellyfish.
She suddenly realized, was this her magic?
In Qingxue's eyes, Jiang Kehan began to emanate her magic power to the outside world, and then, enveloped by this magic power, she curled up and floated in mid-air.
Qingxue couldn't help but frantically type on her chat with her mother, Qingran, on the terminal, urging her to come over quickly.
I never expected Kehan to be so talented. She truly deserves to be my first friend. Qingxue nodded to herself, feeling a little proud.
I must get my mom to give me a discount later, preferably double it, otherwise it won't be sincere enough. She's already preparing to sell her mother.
However, Jiang Kehan had no time to notice Qingxue's little actions. Her brows were tightly furrowed as she stared incredulously at the scene before her.
She felt as if she were in a dream, surrounded by an endless ocean, blue sky and white clouds, and icebergs hanging in the sky like inverted swords.
The azure sea sculpted a gigantic human figure, its features blurred, yet it gave Jiang Kehan a sense of composure, a composure that indicated everything was under control.
Is this still me?
Jiang Kehan fell silent. She had imagined many scenarios, but the result still shattered what little of her past life's worldview she had left.
However, she could no longer remain silent. The constant prompts from her body told her that she only had three minutes left to communicate with magic.
And the most frightening thing is that the body has begun to develop resistance, which means that the drug can only be effective once.
"What exactly are my characteristics, and why..."
Jiang Kehan raised her head, about to question him, but was silenced by the other person who covered her mouth with a smile. The other person's indistinct features revealed a smile as he gently shook his head.
Then, the analysis of large-scale stock trading was directly transmitted into her brain, giving her an epiphany.
Before she could react, the other person turned and left, followed by the shattering of the illusion, leaving her alone back in reality.
Jiang Kehan relaxed her body, fell from mid-air, and opened her eyes.
The Deep Sea Waves is the name of his magical properties.
The most obvious characteristic is that it represents the infinite magic of the deep sea, but this is only the basics.
What's even more special is the ability to encompass and destroy. One's own magic can balance different materials. Hmm, you could try using Synchro Casting to combine multiple spells and cast them together for a more complex effect, achieving 1+12.
Moreover, for alchemy, one's own magic can have a facilitating effect, providing better compatibility, which is very convenient. This is probably the key reason why I was able to concoct this potion.
However, what Jiang Kehan found somewhat difficult to understand was the final destructive characteristic.
She looked at her fair and delicate hands, and couldn't help but clench them a few times, lost in thought.
This characteristic almost destined her to become a magical turret. Once the spells she controls reach a certain scale, these spells will come with a whole host of additional effects such as immunity and defense, overwhelming the opponent like a raging storm.
Moreover, if her magic power far surpasses that of her opponent, she can even overwhelm them with sheer numbers, melting away their spells, curses, or even their very existence, much like the ocean enveloping an iceberg.
Tolerance, harmony, subversion—these three words repeatedly occupied Jiang Kehan's mind, and for the first time, she felt so unfamiliar with them.
Chapter 50 Long-Term Transaction Contracts
"Kehan, how are you feeling? Are you feeling unwell?"
Seeing that Jiang Kehan had regained consciousness, Qingxue suppressed her curiosity about the effects of the potion and looked at her with some concern.
The other person seemed somewhat confused, which worried her. She didn't care whether the medicine was good or not; what mattered was that her only friend absolutely could not be harmed.
After all, she knew her own level of autism, and she probably wouldn't be able to find another witch willing to chat her up.
Thinking of this, Qingxue hurriedly took out various healing potions from her spatial bracelet and stuffed them into Jiang Kehan's hand.
"I have some medicine here that I hope will help you. If you're really feeling unwell, we can go to the Witch's Agency first."
Jiang Kehan sensed the other person's concern, temporarily suppressed her doubts, and shook her head at Qingxue with a smile.
"I'm fine, I was just a little dazed. This potion is very effective, but it can only be used once for each witch, which is a bit of a pity."
"Hmm, I think perhaps we can refine one last batch as a sample for public display. After all, this potion is a blessing for any witch, isn't it?"
Actually, she was just envious of the money she would get after selling them. After learning about her magical properties, Jiang Kehan found herself increasingly short of money.
To become a qualified spellcaster, one inevitably has to learn more powerful spells applicable to complex situations—it's a bottomless pit.
While alchemy can generate wealth, apart from this accidental potion, the recipes recorded in the Alchemist's Law are all quite common and offer no advantage. Other rare recipes, on the other hand, inevitably require purchasing at exorbitant prices.
What? You're asking why we can't develop our own alchemy recipes? Thinking about the coincidences required for a qualified alchemical product, and the countless material experiments needed to pursue the possibility of success, Jiang Kehan's lips twitched, and she silently felt sorry for her wallet.
Jiang Kehan pushed the treatment potion back into Qingxue's hands and explained to her the actual effects of the potion, which she had named "Self-Reading".
"I plan to name this potion 'Self-Reading.' Essentially, it works by creating a platform between magic and witches to facilitate communication. However, the potion's harmonizing effect is something that witches' bodies need to reject. I estimate that the potion will only be effective on little witches with around 300 magic power."
"Moreover, the more magic power the user has, the more obvious the effect, but the shorter the interaction time."
Self-reading, also known as masturbation, is like the relationship between a witch and magic. The shadow can move with the person, but the person must never be affected by the shadow, otherwise the magic will go berserk.
