Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Chapter 147 【0144】 Weak body

When Ike brought Victor and Skye to his office and poured them two cups of coffee, the two looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

A sixteen-year-old young man actually has his own private office with an astonishing area. This situation is almost impossible to happen in Piltover.

"Don't show that look, Victor." Ike sat on his desk dishonestly, his legs shaking rapidly, "My situation is quite special... It's not easy to explain to you. Anyway, under normal circumstances, I You won’t have your own office—let’s talk about you, what kind of alchemy technical support do you need?”

"What I need is alchemy technical support that can improve physical fitness." Victor held the cup and said calmly, "It can give the weak body enough recovery ability and immunity to cope with the subsequent body modification technology."

"The same skills as that lady? Hex body modification?" After talking about this topic, Ike raised his eyebrows in surprise, "As for the lady who fished the three of us out of the mine, my It’s such a deep impression…”

"It's that kind of technology." Victor nodded, "But unfortunately, my current body cannot withstand even the simplest modification."

"So you hope to get some alchemical help and use alchemical potions to improve your physical fitness?" Ike understood what the other party meant. "At least improve your physical fitness enough to support a transformation."

"..."

Victor said nothing and acquiesced in Ike's judgment.

"To be honest, most of Zuan's alchemy experiments on humans have been stopped." Ike scratched his head and showed a troubled expression, "I do know of several drugs with similar effects, but without exception they are strictly controlled. Prescription drugs must be under the dual supervision of a doctor and a pharmacist before they can be used with limited use."

"Understandable." Victor nodded, "Are there any requirements for using these drugs?"

"There are some special conditions that need to be met, and there are very strict regulations." Ike stood up and began to rummage on the bookshelf, "Let me look for it - here is the "Regulations on the Management of Special Alchemy Drugs in Zaun" 》, you need to pass the joint identification of at least three doctors and pharmacists and meet the necessary conditions before you can be qualified to use it. Then, you can use the medicine under the supervision of a doctor and a pharmacist. You can take it for a single use and cannot take it away. …”

After opening the regulations, Ai Linlin read a lot of them, and the more he read about them, the colder his heart became.

Without Ike's detailed explanation, he had already understood from this management regulation the extent of Zaun's restrictions on these drugs. It was almost impossible for him to rely on it to enhance his physical fitness and survive Hex's body transformation. of!

When Ike finished reading a long list of regulations, Victor fell silent.

Ike put the rules back to their original positions, and in the end could only shake his head.

The office fell into silence.

Skye, who had always been transparent before, looked at the two silent old friends and finally blinked - she chose to change the topic and break the suffocating silence.

"Mr. Ike, I heard that Zaun has a special plant cultivation major... I wonder if I can visit it or have some academic exchanges or something."

"Plant culture?" Ike looked at Skye in surprise, with a hint of wariness in his eyes, "Does Piltover even know about this... Yes, Zaun's plant culture major is still very good. Great, thanks to those amazing plants, the endless smog is finally absorbed."

"I also have a research project on plants." Skye pushed her eyes and took out a notebook from her bag. "Unfortunately, the academy can't pass it - I think maybe plants can replace animals in some aspects. To cope with various extreme situations, their growth and withering characteristics are easier to observe directly..."

Ike's eyes widened in disbelief, and his gaze fell on Skye's notebook involuntarily.

The notebook has obviously been deleted, and Skye has scrawled in many key places - obviously, this part involves Piltover's core technology and cannot be shown - but even so, the remaining parts still make Ike feel Quite surprised.

Incredible even.

Perhaps in Mrs. Piltover's eyes, Skye's research is of little significance - the Hex Crystal is indeed polluting when used, but everyone just regards it as the source of power for machines.

However, from Zaun's perspective, Skye's thoughts can only be said to be similar to those of the heroes.

"A very interesting and insightful idea, Miss Skye." Ike couldn't help but pick up the notebook and quickly rummaged through it, "Let me see... a very wonderful way of thinking, directly activated by the source of energy. Plant vitality, strengthening life—is this the research direction of you and Victor?"

"This is just my idea." Skye said a little embarrassed, "Victor...he can always think further than me."

"It's not further, it's just more realistic." Victor finally said, "Actually, I also thought about directly using Hex Crystals to strengthen myself, but unfortunately, that is more difficult than body transformation. .”

Is it already this bad?

Looking at the thin and somewhat stooped Victor, Ike did not continue to dwell on this issue, but took the initiative to change the subject.

"But you don't have to be too discouraged. I can try to submit a special application to you, about the special use of alchemical potions. If you don't mind, maybe we can have dinner together? Many of my friends are here , everyone can get to know each other, you haven’t returned to Zuan for a long time..."

Victor blinked and was about to refuse, but in the end he nodded.

"All right."

……………………

Ike, the "youngest alchemist" seemed to be very idle. He spent most of the afternoon chatting with Victor, looking for the Alchemy Association's internal journals to read to him, and discussing the development and changes of Zaun with him.

This exchange made Victor's mental state much better, and also made Skye, who was worried next to him, relax a little.

Speaking of which...

Ever since Jess and Victor had different research directions and were separated into two offices, it had been a long time since they had talked about academics and ideals together like this.

It's not that Jace and Victor are growing apart, it's that they've taken different paths.

In fact, Skye knew very well that without Jace's activities and support, it would be difficult for Victor's experiment to have such favorable conditions.

In the past three years, Victor has achieved very little, but his resources have never been cut off - this is inseparable from Jace's support.

But if possible, Skye would still prefer Jace and Victor to chat more.

Only his wild imagination and amazing creativity can help Victor gain something - unlike himself, who wants to help but can only do data recording and analysis.

Skye never expected that Victor would have such a friend in Zaun.

Although many of Ike's habits seemed carefree and ridiculously idle, listening to his conversation with Victor, Skye had to admit that his mind was as flexible and meticulous as Jace and Victor, and was a real researcher. genius.

Realizing this, Skye felt a lot more relaxed, and the regret of "not being able to have dinner with Victor" gradually disappeared.

Compared to sitting across from him, who is not good at words, and tasting mediocre Zaun cuisine, maybe this kind of exchange full of wisdom is what Victor needs more, right?

At least it cheers him up a little!

Moreover, didn't Ike say that he could submit a special application?

He is the "youngest alchemist". If he can apply for a special alchemy potion, Victor can achieve a Hex body transformation - the kind that does not require the whole body, just replace it with an artificial respiratory system, legs and feet. .

Thinking of this, the little assistant let out a long breath, and then quietly clenched his fists.

"Be patient, Skye!" Looking at Victor and Ike who were talking in front of her, she silently cheered herself up in her heart, "For Victor, it is best for him to have a way to support Hex's body transformation. The most important thing is that as for the others...you can stay back!"

"Victor is still young!"

"Besides, I have survived for so long..."

Just when Skye mustered up the strength again, Ike, who had been chatting happily with Victor, suddenly collapsed from his large desk.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to the bathroom." He said sheepishly, "Be right back!"

Victor nodded.

Ike seemed to be in a hurry. After opening the door, he strode out of the office.

He did go to the bathroom.

But after that, he did not go back to the office directly, but found the front desk.

"Help me make arrangements." Ike's expression was extremely serious. "Tonight, I need to see Miss Lux - a special meeting."

The receptionist who was originally smiling suddenly became serious when she heard this - she confirmed it with Ike again, then quickly filled out a document and handed it into Ike's hand.

Ike took the document, memorized the time on it, then nodded, took out a copy of the latest journal from the newspaper column at the front desk, then folder the document inside, and then turned around Go back to your office.

"It's almost time." Ike smiled again as he pushed in the door, "Let's go back and have dinner together...Wei, you have already met today. We are having a dinner today, and I have several friends I want to meet. See you."

"Want to see me?" Victor was a little surprised, "Why...why do you want to see me?"

"Of course it's because we fought side by side!" Ike quickly packed many journals into his backpack and laughed loudly. "They were buried under there that day. They were in such a mess!"

Kalya's Little Class·Journal of the Zaun Alchemy Association:

Because there were not many achievements, the journal of the Zaun Alchemy Association contained quite a few non-alchemy-related contents - Victor even saw a joke column in it.
