Chapter 636: Do I Look Like a Fool to You?

~7 min read 1,339 words

Tower: "Do I look like a fool to you?"

Seeing that the other party might have thought of something bad, Lan Qingyou immediately replied.

Although she knew this guy's thoughts had gone astray, Lan Qingyou didn't scold him.

After all, if it were her, if she encountered people around her being tainted with this thing, it would be good enough if she didn't execute them on the spot.

The other party was just thinking about it, so there was no need to make a fuss over a minor issue.

Tower: "I discovered some interesting things during my research over the past few days, so I want more samples."

Justice: "So it's like that. Then I'll give you these few bottles of mine."

Originally, Riesling had commissioned Professor Samael to buy this thing in order to analyze the competitor's product, thereby improving the quality of his own product to compete with the other party.

But now, after knowing what this so-called [Heaven's Fall] was, he naturally lost interest in it.

Anything else was hard to say, but at least the cost could be recovered.

The Tower Witch wasn't lacking this bit of money, and it was impossible for him to say that he wanted a Witch to owe him a favor just for a few bottles of liquor.

That would be too shameless.

However, just as the two of them were conducting the transaction, [High Priestess] Vivian popped out.

High Priestess: "Hmm, let me think. This interesting thing you mentioned wouldn't happen to be wanting to separate those whatever cellular molecules, would it?"

As an existence who had worked together with Lan Qingyou, Vivian naturally clearly knew the other party's attainments in this kind of Biological Thaumaturgy.

Since there were monster cells inside Heaven's Fall.

Then what could attract this Witch was probably only this thing.

After all, it was also impossible for her to really go and drink this bottle of liquor.

Tower: "You guessed it."

There was nothing to hide about this kind of thing.

It was better to say that in Lan Qingyou's view, if it could be hidden, she would keep hiding it, but if it couldn't be hidden, then she might as well generously admit it.

Very obviously, she still couldn't hide it from Vivian, this guy who co-developed the Mirage System.

Justice: "Wait, what do you want this thing for?"

Separate cellular molecules?

Is that thing able to be separated?

Not to mention anything else, something even smaller than a needle tip, let alone separation, just perceiving it would be enough...

Oh, perception, is it a Witch?

Then it's fine.

The moment he thought that the other party was a Witch, and the top dog among Witches at that, plus having Alchemy by her side, Riesling realized that his asking this question was a bit redundant.

Thus, right after sending it out, Riesling, who had snapped back to his senses, immediately sent another message as an add-on.

Justice: "Never mind, forget my above question."

Tower: "Actually, there's nothing much to say. It's just about the Talent Potion. There is powerful mental-type magic power existing inside the cellular molecules in the liquor, which is just right to be used to make the Talent Potion I want."

Because she had always been collecting mental-type materials in the group chat previously.

She had even asked Chu Yuan's side to keep an eye out for her several times, so this kind of thing could basically be considered an open secret already.

Therefore, Lan Qingyou didn't hide anything either.

However, these words of hers were like opening a bottle of dusty fine wine, evoking someone's memories.

Chariot: "Ah, speaking of Talent Potions, I almost forgot. @Tower, you seemed to owe me a batch of Talent Potions back then?"

Hmm?

Lan Qingyou was taken aback, and then instantly remembered a piece of the 'past'.

Tower: "Now that you mention it, I remember there seemed to be such a matter. But I remember I seem to have made them for you at that time?"

Chariot: "Hmm? You did?"

Tower: "I don't remember, after all it was several years ago."

Chariot: "Me too."

That's right, this was a memory from several years ago.

Back when she had just joined the group, she had ordered a batch of mass-produced machines from Olf's side.

At that time, the compensation quoted by Olf was for her to help him make a batch of Talent Potions.

But in Lan Qingyou's memory, this thing seemed to have been made, yet also seemed to not have been made; it was very vague and unclear.

Tower: "Forget it, since we forgot whether it was made or not, let's just treat it as not made. You remember that the Talent Potion requires your own blood, right."

Chariot: "I remember, I'll give it to you in a bit."

Because from beginning to end, Lan Qingyou had only promised Olf alone to make Talent Potions for him during the start-up period.

So even if she didn't remember whether she had made it before, it didn't matter.

Anyway, it was just something done in passing.

Moreover, now she still needed to continue purchasing materials, so there was a short window period that could be utilized.

Tower: "@Hermit, can you help me buy some more Heaven's Fall?"

Hermit: "...What do you take me, a dignified professor, for?"

Tower: "Isn't it because you're right over there? It's just on the way. Don't worry, there will definitely be a hardship fee."

To Lan Qingyou, she only wanted the result, the specific intermediate steps weren't important.

As long as she could buy the liquor she wanted, it didn't matter even if she spent ten times the price.

It was just that...

Hermit: "What are you talking about? I haven't been in the Double Ring Hills for a long time already, okay?"

Tower: "Hmm?"

Lan Qingyou was taken aback; he hadn't been there for a long time?

Hermit: "You haven't been staying inside your own workshop these past few days without coming out, have you?"

Knowing that the other party had previously entered a research state, Samael exposed Lan Qingyou's current situation with a single sentence.

Tower: "Yeah, has a few days passed?"

Justice: "Three days have passed, almost four days."

Tower: "Has it actually been this long? How come I remember I only ate one meal?"

...

Seeing this, everyone in the group fell silent.

Star: "Using the number of meals eaten as a timer because of research is truly something else."

Lovers: "No, it is highly pioneering, although not everyone only eats one meal in several days like her."

High Priestess: "I knew that Witches can go without sleep for several days because of their high spirit. But I didn't expect Witches to actually be so resistant to hunger. I've broadened my horizons."

Tower: "I've also broadened my horizons. I didn't even know you guys were originally so good at roasting."

Seeing them actually roasting her one by one at a time like this, Lan Qingyou was also unwilling to show weakness and countered.

What a joke.

The her of the past was venomous-tongued.

Now, because her life was good and she didn't have so many complaints, she had sealed that skill, but it didn't mean she had no combat power.

What gave you the confidence to roast me.

Thus, a group of people started a roasting war in the group chat.

Hermit: "Alright, I can try to contact them for you. How many bottles do you specifically want?"

Because she was his student, and it was also for the sake of research, Samael very appropriately popped out when everyone's roasting war was nearing its end, putting an end to this 'war'.

Anyway, because he needed to collect more class advancement data, he would frequently go to the war zone.

So buying this kind of thing wasn't considered a difficult matter for him either.

If he felt it was a waste of time, at worst it wasn't impossible to find someone else to go next time.
