Chapter 896: Ascension Potion, Daughter of the Void!

Chapter 896: Ascension Potion, Daughter of the Void!

Night of July 990, 7 in Nuoyuan.

Shurima, a building that stands somewhat abruptly in the center of the desert.

Qiana was leaning over the desk, frowning and writing furiously: "The total value of magic power in the air is known to be 117 cards. If we construct a parallelogram of fire elements according to the ratio of side lengths of 7:3, we can get the guide line to be..."

Sivir, who was standing nearby, came over to take a look out of boredom, only to feel dizzy. She quickly shook her head and sat back on the sofa in the distance, sighing.

"This is the last time. I will never sell it again." She took out 10 ten thousand gold coins from her arms, kissed them hard one by one, and muttered with determination.

But she has said this dozens of times.

It had been nearly four months since the battle with Vikora, and three months ago, when she had recovered from her injuries and repaid Ji Xing's "debt" for the first time, she discovered that neither she nor Nasus had any concept of one drop of blood.

That sounds very scary, as if it is going to drain you dry, but in fact it is only about 0.05 ml.

10000 drops of blood is only 500 ml. A healthy person will feel a little weak after drawing it once, but it is far from fatal - Sivir's previous injuries had caused more blood loss than this.

Ji Xing did not try to fool these math novices. He drew 500 ml of her blood and gave her 4 gold coins. Then... he took out a yuan note.

Shiver couldn't control herself, so while she was recovering, Ji Xing drew blood from her again and again, until a few days ago, when she donated blood for the 10th time.

In just three months, she earned more than she had in ten years as a mercenary, but it was really boring.

There was no village or shop nearby, and all the supplies needed were stored in universal capsules by Ji Xing and created with magic. Talia, the only friend with whom they could talk, had set out to look for her family not long after they settled down.

Seville was busy in the laboratory every day, while Qiyana studied the Seville Theorem that Seville gave her with fascination. Those formulas were like the devil's words...

"This is really the last time!"

With a determined look, she put the gold note back close to her body. Suddenly, she heard the sound of a laboratory door opening not far away, and she rolled up her sleeves reflexively.

"What? Have I run out of blood again?"

Ji Xing looked at her with a smile, shaking a tube of light blue liquid in his hand. Spots of pale golden light shone in the liquid, adding a touch of mystery to the liquid in the potion bottle.

"It's all used up, but it's almost done." He threw the potion to Sivir, who subconsciously caught it and looked at it, "Want a taste?"

"Is this the 'Ascension Potion' you want to synthesize?" Sivir said, "The raw material is my blood... You want me to drink it?"

"If I use your blood as the raw material, I can make it in three days. It won't take that much blood and that much time." Ji Xing said, "It's synthetic blood. Well, it can't be completely considered blood, it's blood essence.

It can greatly develop the potential power in the human body. If combined with proper exercise, it can be digested in a month, which is equivalent to ten years of hard work for ordinary people. Don't worry about drinking it, I have already drunk it."

Sivir opened the cork, leaned over and sniffed it gently. There was a faint smell of blood, but it was not strong, like the blood wine that is a specialty of the desert.

After looking at Ji Xing, she raised her head and drank it all in one gulp. She felt nothing at first, but two seconds later she felt a flame rising from her chest and boiling!

"Woo..." With a soft moan, she covered her chest and closed her eyes to digest it, with heat flowing through her body.

Qiyana had already moved her eyes away from the paper and saw that Sivir's whole body was gradually turning red, as if she had been baked in the scorching sun for a long time!

"Is this guy...really okay?" She couldn't help but ask, "Can I drink?"

"Of course." Ji Xing said: "As long as there is no special genetic disease, or the physical condition is too poor, ordinary ascension potions can be taken by everyone.

But wait a minute, wait until you have mastered more than 80% of Seville's Theorem before considering taking the potion. Otherwise, you may lose a certain amount of control over your magic power due to the surge in power, which is not worth the loss. It will take more time to make up for it... Have you encountered any problems in the past few days?"

"No, I have already mastered most of the knowledge on the total price of magic power."

Qiyana raised her head proudly, but was immediately knocked back by Ji Xinggong: "It's been a month, and you have just mastered the total price of magic power. When will you be able to learn the knowledge of magic seals and magic veins? Are you still proud? You are the worst student I have ever taught!"

Qiana covered her head with a gloomy face and did not refute. On the one hand, she was used to it. On the other hand... she had long been convinced by Ji Xing and even respected him as the god of magic.

Not to mention the battle four months ago, she was sent by Ji Xing to reunite with Taliyah and Sivir. She worked together with Taliyah, who was born with rock magic, to defend herself, but she was still almost buried in the desert.

Just the "Seville's Theorem" compiled by Ji Xing was enough to amaze her.

All the secrets of magic are described through words. She believes that even people with no basic magic skills, as long as they have a little magical talent, can master some basic magic by self-studying in this book for three months. It is simply a holy book of magic!

Compared to it, Ixuokun's Primordial Theorem is not worth mentioning. At least the Primordial Theorem could not allow her to catch up with the level of her mother and the elders after only three months of study!

"Is there anything obscure?" Ji Xing teased Qiyana and said while sitting next to her.

"Well, this place, the elemental pentagon of the total value of magic power, took me two days to understand..." Qiyana knew that Ji Xing's goal was to write magic books for the general public, not just for herself, a magic genius, so she explained to Ji Xing in detail the difficulties she encountered in her studies.

Of course, the proud queen didn't cooperate at first, but Ji Xing had already adjusted her mind.

Ten minutes later, Ji Xing made a few lines on the page and nodded to show that he understood.

This is a barrier that is too strong. Even Ji Xing occasionally makes the mistake of thinking that what he knows is kindergarten knowledge, but it is actually the topic of his doctoral thesis.

At this moment, a bang sound suddenly came from not far away!

Qiana turned her head and looked over, her expression slightly changed: "Hey, why does this guy seem to be in trouble?!"

I saw Shiver fall to the ground, face down, with her hands twitching and supporting herself randomly.

Ji Xing smiled, "It's okay. It looks like the potion is just too effective."

Three seconds later, Sivir, who was struggling randomly, finally found the right feeling. She slowly climbed up with her hands on the ground, and her sunken face and chest bounced back to their original shape.

Subconsciously wiping his nose and finding that there was no nosebleed, Sivir looked at Ji Xing with enthusiasm: "Is this really made of my blood?! I feel like... "

"Can you kill a cow with one punch?"

"No, kill a sandworm with one punch!"

Sivir grinned and said, "My strength has at least increased by two times, which makes it difficult for me to control it for a while...Didn't you say that I need a month of proper training to digest the potion?"

"It's probably because you already have the blood of Ascension, so you can digest the Ascension potion better." Ji Xing said: "In the next period of time, you will get a certain improvement."

Xiweier clenched her fists tightly, feeling that even if she didn't get paid, this period of time was worth it!

"Oh right!" She recalled, "Just now when I was digesting the potion, I heard you talking to this girl about 'ordinary ascension potion'... Could it be that there are other types?!"

"Of course, there are advanced ones." Ji Xing smiled and said, "The lower limit of the improvement of ordinary ascension potions is to a soldier who has been trained for 10 years, and the upper limit may be to the human body limit of ordinary people, um, equivalent to the physique of Darius in Noxus... It will be almost the same after you digest it.

As for the advanced type of ascension potion, it can only be taken by people with good basic physical conditions. It can activate the hidden blood power in the body, and there is a great chance to gain blood power and break through the limit to become a supernatural being... For example, I am now."

He punched forward, and the wind from his fist created a burst of sound, briefly breaking the speed of sound! The strong wind blew on Sivir's face, and while her hair fluttered, Sivir stared straight at Ji Xing!

There are two words written all over his face - want!

"Ascension potions will be sold in Piltover later." Ji Xing smiled and said, "Let me think about it... Before they can be mass-produced, the ordinary type will sell for 1000 gold coins, and the advanced type will sell for 10 gold coins. It shouldn't be too expensive. Well, if you buy the advanced type of ascension potion directly, you can get a discount on the ordinary type."

Sivir paused, stunned.

No...what do you mean?

I earned 10 gold coins from selling blood... and you want to earn it back with just one bottle of potion?!

But feeling the power in her body, Sivir couldn't say that the price was expensive, or that as long as Ji Xing was willing to sell it, the entire Rune Continent would fall into extreme frenzy!

Compared to the universal capsules that assist in daily life, if this medicine can be confirmed to have no side effects, it will simply change the world!

Wait... On the one hand, he wrote a magic book that ordinary people can learn, and on the other hand, he developed such a potion. What exactly does he want to do?

Sivir's thoughts turned, and she slowly regained her sanity as she looked at Ji Xing. This man... was going to lead Runeterra into a new era?

"There is also the Ultimate Ascension Potion. I hope to allow a few people to gain the power of the Ascendant, but it has not yet been produced, or I have not found an auxiliary agent that can make that scale of energy mild." Ji Xing smiled and said, "So I have to store two more portions of your blood. As for the reward, I will use the advanced version of the potion to pay for it."

Sivir was silent for a moment, then shook her head: "You Piltover people are really good at doing business. I thought I had made a lot of money, but it turns out that my blood can bring you a million or even ten million times the return."

"Science and technology are the primary productive force." Ji Xing said, "It's useless for you to keep your blood."

That's the end of what I'm saying...

Xiweier said helplessly: "Well, you offered me a reward that I can't refuse. It seems that I will have to stay here for another two months."

“No, we are leaving the desert.” Ji Xing said, “It’s been half a year since I left Piltover. I have to go back and take a look. It’s a good opportunity for you to go there too. Exchange some of your gold notes for hard currency and find a new job… Or do you plan to return to Azir?”

"I'm not going." Sivir said, "Piltover... the city of progress, the capital of technology, I've wanted to go there for a while."

She glanced at Qiyana. Apparently, the 'Queen of Elements' had no objection to following Ji Xing and temporarily leaving Shurima. She paused and said, "But before that, there is one more thing... Could you please confirm Taliyah's situation? It would be best if... you can meet her without taking a detour too far?"

Qiyana choked when she heard that: "Are you still thinking of getting her to join your mercenary group? She won't do that. She values ​​her family more than anything else."

Xiweier was silent for a moment, and said, "She is still a little girl after all... Have you forgotten how you and Xiweier found me?"

How to find it? Divination magic... huh?

Qiyana was in a trance, looking at Ji Xing who had taken out the card in astonishment. Yes, divination magic! According to Sewell's personality, why didn't he help Taliyah to divine and show her the way home when he said goodbye? !

Thinking of a possibility, she suddenly fell silent, and Ji Xing flipped the card and said, "The desert is indeed full of dangers. Azir's reconstruction of Dawn Oasis will lead to the death of many people, but it will also give many people a chance to survive. It is difficult to judge.

Taliyah is a kind girl who has found a new tribe to protect. She is preparing to take them to a place called Zoran. "

"...Zoran?" Qiyana was surprised.

Sivir straightened her back instantly and said in astonishment: "The eastern town of Shurima? How could it be there?! It is said that there are many void monsters lurking under the desert near the ancient Kingdom of Ekathia. Even the Noxian army did not hesitate to spend a high price to bypass it..."

Ji Xing turned over another card.

Yes, it was the land of void that Leblanc had specifically reminded herself to avoid before coming to Shurima, a land where one could encounter void monsters.

Well, let's go and take a look.

……

Meanwhile, in the desert of the Far East.

There was a bonfire burning in a camp, and more than thirty people were sitting around the bonfire, mostly old and young.

As they ate their food, they told stories, with the younger children describing how their homes had sunk into the sand and how they missed their parents and siblings and wished they could be reunited with their families.

The old man talked about ancient history, the ascended warriors, the last emperor, the dark descendants, and none of the stories seemed true. To the "worldly-wise" Taliyah, they sounded even more false, but Taliyah listened with a faint smile on her face.

She liked this safe atmosphere, which was why she stayed here to protect these old and young people even though she hadn't found her parents or family.

Suddenly, a slightly older girl told an even more bizarre story: "There is a place called Zolan, which has existed for a thousand years under the protection of magic. It is said that it is a paradise.

There are libraries, gardens, and clear water, and everyone is safe..."

Everyone had a look of longing on their faces, but at this moment a discordant and scornful snort was heard.

They looked over with expressions of fear and rejection, because the woman humming was brought back by Taliyah tonight and was very "unique".

She had purple hair and a cold and arrogant face that was difficult to approach, but the most important thing was that there were some shells attached to her body, which belonged to void monsters and exuded an inhuman smell!

This made it hard for everyone to believe that she was still a human being. If Taliyah had not guaranteed it, no one would have welcomed this woman named Kassa to stay.

What does this cold snort mean?

After a few seconds of pause, Kassadin seemed to realize that he had accidentally snorted, and said, "In the void, no place is safe. This must be a lie."

"No, Zoran is real!"

"Where do you think we're going?!"

The people who have suffered from the disaster of the void monsters yearn for a place to settle down, and Kassadin is unable to persuade them at all.

She thought of her past.
