Chapter 465 Rowena, You Don’t Want to
Helga shook her head when she heard that. Her intuition told her that the fire dragon blood was probably not very compatible with her.
"I'll go find some suitable blood, you can do whatever you want." After saying this, Helga left Rowena's office.
Les did not leave, but stayed in the office waiting for Rowena to arrive.
He still had one very important matter to settle with Rowena.
Because Dumbledore discovered the many uses of dragon's blood, dragon's blood became an expensive but very common ingredient in potions, and was sold in almost every potion shop.
Rowena easily bought dragon blood in Hogsmeade village.
When she returned to her office, she found Salazar was there, but Helga seemed to have not completed her task yet.
"Salazar, have you got the basilisk's blood? Where's Helga?"
"The Phoenix and the Snake King Fruit are not suitable for her. She went to look for other kinds of blood." Rice first told Rowena where Helga was going, and then briefly explained to her how to use the Variety Fruit Tree.
Rowena followed his instructions and grew some dragon fruits on the fruit trees.
Then she began to test her compatibility with these three fruits. In fact, she knew without testing that the Phoenix Fruit was most likely the most compatible with her.
"Phoenix, are you worthy? Because both the phoenix and the eagle can fly?" Les muttered in a low voice.
He felt that Phoenix and Rowena were actually quite in conflict.
As expected, none of the three kinds of fruit on the tree were particularly compatible with Rowena, and the phenomenon that Les stretched out his hand and the fruit fell into his hand did not occur at all.
Finally, after weighing it, Rowena picked a phoenix fruit and ate it.
The moment he swallowed the fruit, Rowena couldn't help but groan, and a boil appeared at the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that he had paid a little price for forcibly taking the Phoenix Fruit.
Without the need for incantations or gestures, Rowena directly activated the magic power in her body. Then many golden-red phoenix feathers grew out of her body. Her arms and legs quickly stretched out and eventually turned into two wings hanging at her sides and two slender bird claws.
Looking at the "birdman" in front of him, Rice opened his eyes wide in surprise.
"Royna, can you fly like a bird?"
"It should be possible?" Rowena said in a not very confident tone.
Her lips and jaw had turned into a beak, which made her voice sound strange.
Compared to Rice's transformation, which was just an extra layer of scales on the body surface, Rowena's transformation was huge. Not only did her appearance change, but the bones in her body also became hollow bones.
Rowena tentatively spread her wings, flapped them, and floated a few feet above the ground. Rice's expression suddenly became extremely complicated, as if he was trying to hold back his laughter but couldn't.
This cannot be blamed on Les's out-of-control expression, but because Rowena now looks a bit like the big roosters raised by Hagrid.
However, unlike the rooster raised by Hagrid, Rowena's wings were not trimmed, so she mastered the trick of flying with just a little attempt and could fly like a bird - but Rowena's phoenix state, like other large birds, needed the power of the wind.
For other wizards who took the Phoenix Fruit, it was a matter of luck, but for Rowena, it was a piece of cake. In fact, the first time she successfully took off, she summoned a gust of wind to help her.
"It's very useless." After hovering in the air for a minute, Rowena fell back to the ground and complained about this flashy phoenix fruit.
"I feel that the body after becoming a phoenix is very fragile. If you want to fly from the ground, you need the power of the wind. After the hands become wings, those ordinary little wizards can't even cast magic... It doesn't seem very practical."
Rice looked at Rowena's Phoenix body thoughtfully: Since he could inherit the Serpent King's death sight, Rowena's Phoenix state should also have a similar function, right?
"Can you squeeze out a few tears?"
Faced with Salazar's request, Rowena was stunned for a moment, and then said that this was a bit difficult.
"It's okay, I'll help you." Les took out an onion from somewhere and cut it in half. He waved the onion in front of Rowena's eyes, and Rowena's eyes immediately became moist.
"This effect is comparable to that of a magic potion." Rice put the onion away casually, then stuffed a crystal bottle under Rowena's eye sockets and collected several tears.
Rowena:…
She understood what Salazar was trying to do, but it still bothered her.
In the past, this kind of role was played by Godric!
After getting the pirated Phoenix Tears, Rice first took out a small jar of magic potion with a blue glow on the surface, then cut a hole on the back of his hand. Finally, he poured two drops of magic potion on the wound.
After the potion entered the wound, the pain in the wound disappeared all of a sudden, replaced by numbness. This numbness spread rapidly, and in just a few seconds, Rice's back of the hand had lost all feeling.
Seeing that the potion was taking effect, Les sprinkled Rowena's tears on it.
Suddenly, a heart-piercing pain came from the wound, and wisps of blue smoke began to rise from the wound.
After more than ten seconds, Rice found that the poison he had administered had been suppressed and the wound had healed, but there was still a faint blue color on the scar.
"The poison has not been completely eliminated, it has only been suppressed temporarily, but that is enough." Rice still admired the castrated version of Phoenix Tears - without these tears, one would die within a few minutes of being poisoned, but with the tears one could buy a lot of time and save lives.
So the Phoenix's form is actually auxiliary, Rice thought.
"The effect is much weaker." Rowena was not very satisfied.
"In fact, the phoenix can be reborn from the ashes..." Les's eyes wandered over Rowena.
"Stop dreaming! I definitely won't do such an experiment!" Rowena flatly refused, asking Salazar to give up this unrealistic idea as soon as possible.
"Yeah." Les just mentioned it casually. He didn't expect Rowena to agree. His main event was yet to come.
"Royna, I need a dance partner for the Christmas ball. I've decided, it's you." After Rowena regained her human form, Les said in an unquestionable tone.
Rowena: ???
"Salazar, you're probably not—"
"There are still many fierce battles waiting for me in the alchemy world, which really makes it difficult for me~" Les raised the corners of his mouth and added.
The implication was clear: Rowena, you don't want to...
Rowena was immediately speechless. She wanted to say, "If it's difficult, don't do it," but this matter had to be done, so she actually had no choice.
