《Witcher: I Can Extract Everything》Chapter 34: Mimicry
Advertisement
Heath smiled and did not mind. He was already used to such 'misunderstandings'.
At this moment, the maids brought tea and snacks.
Heath took out a small bottle with some bright yellow powder in it.
He opened the cork and shook off some of the tea from their teacups. Then, he signaled the maid beside him to pour in the black tea.
The maid picked up the silver teapot and poured the black tea into the silver cup, then picked up the silver spoon next to her and stirred it gently.
Some of the tea accidentally dripped onto the wooden table.
Immediately, a light green glow appeared on the table, and then a green grass quickly grew out, and a small white flower bloomed in the middle of the grass.
Flower Fairy Powder: The essence material extracted from the body of a Flower Fairy. It has a very high vitality. It is used to soak in water to refresh the mind and restore energy. It is a very famous tea snack in the Wizard World.
The strange scene in front of him instantly made Count Kroya's eyes widen.
Heath raised his hand. "This is the Flower Fairy Powder. Count, are you used to it?"
Count Kroya picked up the tea and took a sip. The moment the tea entered his mouth, he felt a strange energy dissolve in his mouth. It was as if he had swallowed a forest in one gulp. The fragrance of the soil mixed with the fragrance of the flowers filled his entire body and mind.
After a long time, the Count finally recovered from such a comfortable state.
He sighed. "I always thought that I had tasted all the best wines in the world. Only today did I realize that I was so ignorant."
Heath said, "If you like it, bring some back later."
This thing was just a snack in the Wizard World. It was not worth much.
Count Kroya did not stand on ceremony. He smiled and said, "This is probably the best gift I have received since I inherited the city."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Count Kroya changed the topic and cut to the topic of his visit today. "I heard that as long as we can pay Magic Stones, Wizards can fulfill all the wishes of us mortals."
At this point, he took out a small box. After opening the bag, it was filled with a box of Magic Stones.
The Count said, "This one hundred Magic Stones is a small gift from me. Please accept it, Sir."
According to tradition, the Shadow Tower's external Apprentices could trade with the local humans and earn Magic Stones from them.
However, every item traded had to be reported to the Shadow Tower truthfully, and after deducting the cost, the Shadow Tower would take 50% of the profits.

As the price of 50%, the Shadow Tower completely stopped other organizations' Wizards from trading with the humans in their territories. Once discovered, they would be turned into rats and thrown to the owls.
Heath asked, "Count, please tell me what you want."
The Count's face lit up. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he did not say it. He looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated. He looked at the servants beside Heath.
Heath understood and waved his hand. The servants quickly left.
The Count then said, "It's like this, Sir Wizard, do you have... Do you have any magic potions in that area?"
Heath did not understand for a moment and could not help but ask, "Sir, please enlighten me."
The Count came closer and said, "It's that kind of magic potion that can make women forget themselves."
Pausing for a moment, he added with an awkward smile, "I'm getting a little weak at my age."
The corner of Heath's mouth twitched. How come no matter how high the status of a mortal was, the first thing that came to his mind was always these?
He took out his dimensional pocket and took out a bottle of magic medicine from it. Inside the bottle was a pellet-shaped pill.
When Heath accepted the mission, the official Apprentice who arranged the mission for him had given him a list. On the list were the magic medicine and magic tools that the mortals wanted the most, including this kind of magic medicine.
He still remembered that the fatty who recommended him had specially asked him to prepare more. At that time, he was a little disdainful, but now it seemed that these old Apprentices were more experienced.
He handed the potion to Count Kroya and said, "Every time you take one, you will have the vitality of a young man. The effect of the potion will last for a week."
Strictly speaking, this kind of thing could not even be considered as a potion. When Heath bought it, he only spent one Magic Stone.
Count Kroya was overjoyed. "Thank you very much, Sir."
Heath put away the Magic Stones on the table. "This is just a piece of cake. Count, you don't have to be so polite."
'I should be the one thanking you for exchanging 100 Magic Stones for something that isn't even a magic potion.'
Count Kroya continued, "In addition, I'm here on behalf of the collective nobles and all the people of Reiden City. I sincerely invite you to participate in the Midsummer Night that will be held at the end of the month. I wonder if Reiden City will have the honor?"
Pausing for a moment, he added, "The other nobles also hope to have the opportunity to obtain the luck of magic."

Heath nodded. "Of course."
...
After resting for two days, Heath's energy returned to magic once again and he began to upgrade his spells.
Currently, he only had one defensive spell model, which was the [Water Shield] he obtained from the Grimm Brothers.
This was a low-level Apprentice-level spell. The principle was to use magic to control the water elements in front of him to form a water shield for protection.
Among spells of the same level, its defensive ability could only be said to be average. However, its advantage was that its defensive area was wide and it could change its form at will. It could be considered one of the more famous low-level water-type defensive spells.
Heath's idea was to combine the [Hardening] spell he had obtained in the forest with the [Water Shield] to increase the defensive ability of the water shield.
This was definitely not an easy thing to do. If it was any other Apprentice, they would not even dare to think about it.
After all, they did not even have the basic knowledge of spells at the moment. They had already done their best to construct spells based on other people's models. How could they still have the ability to change spells?
A few days later, in Heath Laboratory.
Splash!
The sound of flowing water could be heard. A shield that was completely made of water elements was unfurled in the room.
Heath was facing the water shield. He raised his finger and drew runes one after another.
As he moved, the water shield in front of him began to shrink and compress. The flow of water inside began to slow down. Some crystals even appeared. They gradually became solid as if they had frozen.
Just as the shield in front of him was about to turn into a solid object as hard as ice, a cracking sound was heard from within the shield.
Then, before Heath could come back to his senses, he heard a boom, and the entire shield collapsed into pieces.
Splash!
The scattered water droplets flew in all directions, and it began to rain in the entire room.
"It failed again."
It was never easy to improve a spell. Every rune needed to be rearranged, deduced, combined, and verified. Any slight mistake would lead to failure.
Shaking his hair, Heath did not seem discouraged at all. He walked to the table, picked up a pen and paper, and began to summarize the process of casting the spell.
A few days later...
"I finally succeeded!"
Heath heaved a long sigh of relief and looked at the 'water shield' in front of him.
It was not appropriate to call it a water shield because what was floating in front of Heath was a mass of mercury-like substance. It had even left the form of a 'shield' and was now floating in an irregular shape in front of Heath.
"Let's try its defense!"
Heath came to an empty space at the side and picked up the cross-shaped sword. He held his breath and slashed the sword at the mercury-like substance in front of him.
Poof!
There was a muffled sound.
When the cross blade slashed at the mercury-like substance, it was as if it had cut into a swamp. The surface of the mercury-like substance rippled with a layer of water. Then, a huge force pushed Heath's cross blade back.
When he slashed with all his strength, the mercury-like substance did not move at all.
This was a new spell that Heath had constructed using [Water Shield] and [Hardening]. He had also used some knowledge of non-newtonian fluids from his previous life. It had the hardness of metal and also took into account the flexibility of liquids.
The more powerful the attack, the more outstanding its defensive performance would be.
"It's not in vain that I spent so much effort!"
Seeing this powerful defensive ability, a look of joy appeared in Heath's eyes. With this powerful spell, his safety factor would also increase by a level.
In the end, Heath named his new spell [Mimicry Shield].
...
A few days later, Midsummer Night.
Midsummer Night was a festival in Reiden City. At this time of the year, Reiden City's people would hold a grand event in the square in front of the Lord's Castle. They would sing, dance, drink, and have a good night.
At this moment, in the Lord's Castle.
Long tables had been set up in the wide square. The tables were filled with bread, nuts, fruit, and all kinds of food.
Later, the generous nobles would throw out the leftover barbecued meat.
Beside them were barrels of large oak barrels. The fragrance of the food mixed with the wheat wine filled the air.
The square was crowded with people.
This year's Midsummer Night was particularly lively because it was said that a special guest had come to the city this year. He was a legendary Wizard who mastered magic.
"He's here! The Wizard is here!"
There was a sudden commotion in the square, and everyone's eyes were fixed on a certain place.
Over there, a carriage stopped at one side of the square, and the carriage door opened with a click.
A handsome young man walked out of the carriage.
He had black hair and fair skin. He wore a long robe made of fine linen, and his entire body exuded an elegant scholarly aura. He seemed like a knowledgeable scholar.
The crowd was excited.
"Is this the Wizard?"
"He's so young!"
"Wizard, thank you, thank you for eliminating the monsters! Thank you for saving Reiden City!"
"Wizard! Magic! Wizard! Magic!"
