Chapter 1190: Side Effects
Miss Vanessa Benanisi seemed quite confident in herself, so Xia De had no choice but to pull out the stopper, wipe the mouth of the bottle, and hand it to Miss Benanisi.
"I'll repeat it again, its side effects are really strong."
The witch nodded noncommittally. After taking it, she fanned her nostrils and sniffed it lightly. Although her face was slightly red, she didn't feel there was much of a problem.
The perfume of 【Desire】 is not an ordinary aphrodisiac that abruptly increases desire; it only causes thoughts from the heart, which is a very natural and elegant process:
"How much can I drink at once?"
"Two or three small sips are enough. Please be sure to drink slowly, don't be too fast, the side effects of this Relic are still too strong."
This is the answer Xia De gave based on his own experience.
He wanted to persuade her again, but Miss Benanisi didn't say much, raised her hand and drank a small sip lightly, savored it for a second without feeling much of a problem, so she drank two more small sips.
When she raised her hand, she would cover her face because of the angle. When the witch put down her arm, Xia De immediately noticed the flush on her face, as well as the wrong look in her eyes.
"The taste is really good."
The bottle was stuffed into Xia De's hand. The witch didn't even notice that her voice was trembling. Xia De saw the flush on her face, which was rapidly spreading to her whole body. This was not the kind of red spots caused by allergies, but an alluring flush on very natural fair skin.
"I tasted green apple, soil after rain, cumin roast lamb, and clam soup." She narrowed her eyes and covered her forehead, "This feeling is like drinking strong liquor."
When Xia De stuffed the bottle back into his pocket, with a clatter of the long sword falling to the ground, she fell into Xia De's arms.
Xia De found it hard to describe his mood at this moment. He only felt that the lady's body in his arms was so warm. Even though he had guessed that the side effects of the perfume would be obvious, the witch's performance still exceeded his expectations. He was very glad that he had always tried his best to avoid letting others drink these perfumes.
Witches are usually very tall, and Miss Benanisi was only a little shorter than Xia De.
At this moment, she hugged Xia De, buried her face in Xia De's arms, and then made a *** sound that Xia De didn't really want to describe.
She was simply like wanting to rub her head into Xia De's chest.
It was impossible for Xia De to break free, not to mention that he was still maintaining the spellcasting of 【Power of the Earth · Healing Aura】.
Trying to push away and seeing it couldn't be done, his left hand gently pressed on the back of the witch's head. The tranquil silver moonlight represented the miracle of healing the spirit.
Although he was like nothing every time he drank perfume, that was because he had contacted 【Desire】 several times, and even when he first met the other party in the underground of Aphrodite Manor, he personally witnessed the essence of 【Desire】, and even understood what he wanted because of this. Even so, he only dared to drink a small sip at a time.
The witch's body temperature was still rising continuously. Feeling the gentle power on the back of her head, her nose seemed to be twitching, sniffing the scent on Xia De's body.
This scene was very strange, especially since there was a Holy Grail with surging spiritual energy floating in front of them, and the terrifying sarcophagus not far away was still shaking.
【If you had guessed it earlier, you should have stopped her just now.】
"She was right, she did need to restore spiritual energy. And I wanted to try and see how big other people's reactions would be. This time I learned my lesson."
The witch lost her mind and lost control of her body, which lasted for about three minutes.
When she barely came back to her senses, she found that she was hugging Xia De tightly, and her mouth was biting on Xia De's neck. That was really a bite. When she raised her head slightly, she clearly saw the red spots and wet marks on Xia De's neck.
Xia De's left hand raised so that Miss Benanisi could raise her head, and then he placed his hand directly on her forehead. The tranquil moonlight in front of her made the witch's extremely restless spirit recover faster, but the heat without a source in her body still did not fade, and even her body was instinctively resisting the idea of letting go of Xia De.
Vanessa Benanisi only felt the soaked skin
sticking to her clothes was so uncomfortable, and the scent on Xia De was so good.
Xia De actually didn't have much scent on him; the Outlander was more hygienic than the vast majority of people in this era.
She looked up at Xia De. In the radiance of the Silver Moon, the one she was hugging was clearly that tranquil, mysterious, ancient, and elegant moon that could not be described in words. He seemed to be of extraordinary significance to this world.
"Hmm..."
Her delicate nose hummed, and while the abnormal heat of her body dissipated, the inner heat rose again.
She was very sure of her thoughts at this moment, which were her true thoughts. She probably also understood how Xia De Hamilton attracted Galina.
After another half a minute, she finally let go of Xia De, whom she was hugging. Xia De also took his hand off her forehead. Vanessa Benanisi was not shy enough to dare not look into Xia De's eyes, but instead stared at him for a few seconds.
"You... have this effect when you drink it?"
"Yes, but I'm used to it, and I drink less."
The flush on the blonde witch's face had not faded. On the contrary, words like "stunning" could no longer describe her appearance at this moment. Collecting her mind, the shy expression finally emerged, pretending to be calm, but the inner touch at that moment could not be suppressed at all.
Biting her lip, letting the slight pain suppress the restlessness.
"This matter... don't tell others, especially Galina and the others."
"Okay."
Pursing her lips and nodding slightly, her heart was still pounding violently. The Great Witch tried hard to adjust her mood and expression. After the heat of her body gradually faded, she felt the cold feeling of being soaked all over. But at least her spiritual energy really recovered, but the feeling of almost losing control and getting lost for a moment just now was really incomparably terrifying.
The memorable memory had not faded yet, and it probably wouldn't fade in a short time. Just like the rising seawater, even if it receded slowly, it still left marks on the beach.
"Everything you are thinking about now may be caused by the side effects of the perfume. Miss Benanisi, keeping your spirit focused is the first lesson for a Ringed Shushi, please..." He couldn't think of a good word for a moment. The witch shook her head slightly:
"Let's go, solve the problem here quickly, maybe we can return to the city before dawn."
Instinctively holding Xia De's hand and walking toward the sarcophagus, but after walking two steps, she realized her action and let go of Xia De's hand again. She walked in front, not wanting Xia De to see her expression, but Xia De, who picked up 【Night Watcher】, tugged at the witch's sleeve to signal her to step back.
"Because of the power of the earth, the black mud that petrifies the body and soul is not fatal to me, please let me walk in front. Calm down, Miss Benanisi."
The witch instinctively said "Hmm," but her mind was no longer on tonight's adventure.
Xia De's purification spell was effective, and the witch's full-force strike just now was also very obvious.
When the two came to the suspended sarcophagus, the earthy yellow spiritual energy surging in the Holy Grail gradually dissolved the black mud scattered on the ground around, and now the only problem left was the sarcophagus.
The sarcophagus was not particularly high, and Xia De and the witch could see the black mud overflowing inside by standing on the side.
They filled the entire sarcophagus, surging gurgling on the surface, as if they might overflow at any time. This was also the first time Miss Benanisi observed these semi-solid substances rich in toxins, curses, diseases, and negative energy so closely, and the witch quickly reached a conclusion.
"If you get stained with this thing, then it's just a drop. If it can't be removed in time, then it's definitely dead. The only way I can think of is to use the 【Universal Earth Elixir】 configured by your Holy Grail."
"Yes, after all, it is the madness overflowing from the essence of the earth."
Xia De said softly, and carefully let go of the Holy Grail he was holding.
The cup gushing earthy yellow spiritual energy slowly descended above the sarcophagus, but after contacting the mud, it floated on it, as if the density of the mud was not enough to let it "sink."
"Use your sword to press it down?"
Miss Benanisi suggested cautiously. Xia De shook his head.
"Why is it so troublesome?"
Saying this, he held the earthen Holy Grail with both hands again, and then pressed it directly into the pitch-black mud.
This also meant that Xia De's hands also entered the terrible black mud.
The witch wanted to grab Xia De's hand after a moment of astonishment, but was stopped by Xia De:
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
He could feel a force trying to push the Holy Grail out of the sarcophagus, so he gritted his teeth and activated the spell of "Red Dragon Power" to press it down.
And the Holy Grail that entered the inside of the sarcophagus also continued to play its role.
As Xia De's spiritual energy was consumed continuously again, the black mud was dissolved bit by bit by the spell, and the power confronting Xia De was also reduced bit by bit.
The process of purifying the entire sarcophagus lasted for a full twenty minutes, during which Xia De's hands were always inside the sarcophagus.
So Miss Benanisi also took out the pink small bottle she was already afraid of and fed Xia De perfume once.
It is worth mentioning that when she took out the bottle, it was still full of liquid.
In short, when the last trace of black mud completely disappeared and the entire church seemed to regain its vitality, Xia De's spell stopped naturally.
He let out a long breath, put away the "Healing Holy Grail," and then looked into the sarcophagus with Miss Benanisi.
There were no complete remains inside. The remains stained with black mud had long since merged into the black mud over the past thousand years.
But there were still three items lying inside. Being able not to be melted by those black muds meant the extraordinary nature of these three items.
"This is what I'm looking for."
Xia De saw the silver flute at a glance and reached out to take it out. This was a pure silver metal flute, with butterflies dancing gracefully engraved on the surface.
Because it was outlined with slender marks, one must observe carefully to see the dense and detailed patterns. ===== CHAPTER 1191 =====
