Time came to the next day.
It looked exactly the same, the color was the same as described, and with the experience gained from the top student's panel, he had no reason to doubt the authenticity of the potion.
"It's a little cool and a little sweet."
Ivan leaned in and sniffed it, then poured the azure potion into his mouth. It felt like slurping jelly, and it melted in his mouth, flowing all at once into his throat and into his stomach.
After a few minutes, he sensed a feeling that was different from the rushing potion. It was a cool breath, like being in the sea water, refreshing and comfortable, making people forget their daily fatigue.
During the time that the potion takes effect, the effectiveness of his breathing practice will be greatly improved.
"Hurry! Hurry! Padge, I'm hungry."
"I'm ready, Brother Ivan."
"Not enough, I need more food."
It is human instinct to eat when hungry. After practicing the breathing technique, Ivan felt an unprecedented sense of hunger. At this moment, it seemed as if every cell in his body was crying out for hunger, urging him to eat quickly and eat a lot.
The effects lasted for three days, one day longer than the torrent potion.
He felt both pain and happiness during these three days.
Strength: 2.3, Agility: 1.7, Constitution: 2.1, Spirit: 1.4
As expected of a medium-quality general secret medicine, it has significant improvements in all aspects, especially in the constitution, which has been directly increased by 0.6 scales. This also shows that the azure potion focuses more on increasing physical fitness.
In addition to physique, strength is also increased by 0.4 and agility by 0.3.
The mental scale remains unchanged as always.
"Strength exceeds 2 scales, which is the standard for a second-class knight squire."
Ivan was filled with emotion. He had become a second-class knight squire, not far from becoming a quasi-knight. All the expenses in exploring the secret medicine were worth it.
Improving your strength is undoubtedly a happy thing.
However, the breathing secret medicine has strong resistance, so it is best to wait five or six days before taking the second secret medicine. In a good mood, he came to the west of the city again.
In the front yard of the cottage, he held the small iron rod hanging there in his hand and rang the doorbell.
"Welcome back, Mr. Ivan."
It was Mrs. Halaya who came out, with a smile on her face and curved eyes, a smile that seemed contagious.
Ivan smiled and greeted, "Nice to meet you, ma'am."
According to his observation, Mrs. Halaya had only a few students, and this noble lady had always had high demands on life and spent more than many people. This was probably the reason why Mrs. Halaya was so happy.
The two of them came to the living room and sat down separately.
"Mr. Ivan, what do you want to learn this time?"
"Bloordish, the language of the tide."
Mrs. Halaya agreed: "It's a very good choice. In fact, both the ancient language of Gaoganda and the tidal language are commonly used by wizards. It seems that Mr. Ivan has a great interest in wizards."
Ivan's heart moved when he heard her words, and he nodded slightly: "Wizards have the most mysterious methods, of course I am interested in learning more."
"Then you must study hard, language is the foundation of everything."
Seeing that Mrs. Halaya did not continue the topic of wizards, Ivan did not dare to ask rashly. After all, the relationship between the two was just an employment relationship.
[Linguistics Experience +1]
[Linguistics: lv1 (6/100)]
Learning a new language has immediate effects and experience points begin to increase.
Ivan had recently experienced a huge increase in his experience points, so he was now calm.
After the course, he did not stay in the villa, but went straight to the Bat Eye Clinic in the east of the city.
Halfway through the journey, Ivan noticed something and stopped, turned around and looked back, but found nothing suspicious.
"An illusion?"
He looked at it for two or three seconds, gave up the idea of pursuing the matter, and continued walking back.
After seeing the pile of goods not far away, Benson breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the people leaving.
"He almost found me. What should I do now?"
With him was Roseside, and the two of them ran into Ivan by chance and began to follow him.
Roseside frowned and asked, "What is he doing in the city center?"
Benson was impatient to guess and complained, "You shouldn't have dragged me along just now. It would have been much easier to just go find him directly instead of wasting time and effort to track him down now."
Roside said bitterly, "There are many patrol teams in the west of the city, so it's not advisable to take action."
He didn't want to just beat Ivan up like last time, he wanted more, not only to humiliate him, but also to seriously injure him, otherwise how could he get rid of the anger in his heart.
Benson stood on the street and looked into the distance. Suddenly, he thought of an idea: "I have an idea. How about - just invite me to fight?"
"He wouldn't be that stupid."
"Let's give it a try. I'll invite him to the cave at the bottom of the cliff. I'll say it's to settle the original matter. I think he will definitely not remain indifferent."
Faced with Roseside's rejection, Benson still insisted on his own idea. After all, he had already alerted the enemy, so why not give it another try.
The next day.
Early in the morning, Padgett, who had just returned from shopping with Aunt Kathy, found a letter at the door.
"Brother Ivan, there is a letter for you."
"letter?"
Ivan took it with a puzzled look on his face. Sure enough, it said "From Ivan Marichatton" in Vandani. The handwriting was very standard and it was impossible to tell who wrote the letter to him.
Thinking of what happened on the road yesterday, he calmly put the letter into his pocket.
"It is indeed a letter from me, a pen pal from afar."
Padge tilted her head and asked, "Male or female pen pal?"
"Why do you care so much?"
Seeing Ivan stretching out his hand and trying to ruffle her hair, Padget was so scared that she jumped away and ran back into the house.
Ivan returned to his room and opened the so-called letter. It was an invitation from Benson to settle the affairs of the expedition and to get rid of the culprits.
"I haven't even found you yet, but I can't wait to get spanked."
Of course he had to avenge himself. He had never forgotten how miserable he felt at that time, and it involved a life.
However, now is the time when my strength is growing rapidly, so I will just put it in the account for now.
Thinking of something, Ivan put on a mask, hurriedly walked out of the Marichatton house with his sword in hand.
He stood at the door and looked around for a while, but didn't see any sneaky figures. He then looked around the nearby roads and alleys and found Benson walking back slowly.
Haha, God help me!
"Benson!"
Ivan approached quietly and called out as he got closer.
Hearing this, Benson turned around and was horrified to find that gray powder was covering him. He closed his eyes vigilantly, moved to the side, and held his sword to prevent any sneak attacks.
But Ivan was no longer the same person he had been before. He swung his sword with its scabbard over and hit Benson's arm, knocking the opponent's weapon off his feet.
"Ahem, stop fighting. I admit defeat. I admit defeat."
The scabbard swung at him again and again, forcing Benson to hold his head in his hands and cry out for mercy.
"Listen, we'll meet at the same time in half a month at the old place. Remember to bring Roside with you to settle the bloody account."
After Benson fell to the ground for a while, Ivan stopped and left happily after saying a few words.
