Chapter 384: Soul Absorbing Agent
A pungent sll assailed his nostrils. Morris, who was not used to this sll, imdiately felt nauseous. However, Audrey had been refining potions all year round, so she was quite used to this sll.
“If you’re not used to it, don’t go in. Wait for here,” Audrey turned her head and said.
Morris hesitated for a mont. He wanted to follow Audrey in, but he was too weak to do so. He could only say, “Alright, I’ll wait here. If there’s anything, call imdiately.”
“You too,” Audrey replied and walked into the laboratory alone.
Inside, there were various bottles, jars, and test tubes. Audrey went forward to observe them, but she did not understand what kind of potion they were making.
She had been an alchemist for many years, but she had never seen such a potion.
With her alchemy level, Audrey dared to say that no one in Spark City could match her. However, she did not know much about the things in the laboratory. It was clear that this person was not refining an ordinary potion. He was probably using so unorthodox thod.
Audrey sighed softly and went forward to pick up a bottle of potion. Just as she was about to study it properly, she heard Morris’ surprised cry from outside the door.
Audrey’s expression instantly sank. She hurriedly put down the potion and was about to leave. However, when she reached the door, a door suddenly fell and locked Audrey in the laboratory.
Following that, a man walked out not far behind her. He was wearing a black robe and a mask. He looked sowhat similar to the mysterious sapphire-blue man.
“Who are you?” Audrey frowned and looked at him warily. At the sa ti, she was thinking about Morris’ safety.
“Who am I? Heh! You don’t have to worry about that, Miss Audrey.” The man sneered and called her by her na. Audrey could not help but be surprised that the man recognized her.
Then, it must not be the first ti she had gotten to know her.
Since you know , you should not provoke . Audrey snorted in her heart, her eyes revealing a hint of danger.
The man did not show the slightest fear. Instead, he smiled disdainfully. Then, he took out a crystal ball from sowhere, and the illusion that appeared inside turned out to be Klein and the others.
They were tied up and locked in a room, looking very miserable.
“What do you want to do?” Audrey’s heart sank. No wonder she could not find Klein and the others. It turned out that they had taken them away.
Then, they must have saved Xavier as well.
“It’s very simple. I just need you to help with a small favor.” The man chuckled, a hint of cunningness flashing through his eyes.
Audrey did not understand. Since when did the Carol Association want to talk to her about helping.
“I heard that Miss Audrey is a genius alchemist. Coincidentally, I recently encountered a very thorny problem. If you help solve it, I’ll release your partner. Oh, right, there’s also that person outside the door.” Although, as he spoke, the man looked at the door with obvious aning, he was threatening Audrey.
Audrey was nervous. She could not ignore the safety of her teammates.
After so hesitation, Audrey asked, “What kind of help?”
“I’ve been developing a potion recently, but it’s been a failure. Help develop it.” The man snorted coldly, his tone cold.
A potion? Audrey frowned as she thought carefully.
Perhaps, through this opportunity, she could understand what exactly was going on with those beasts.
“Alright, but you have to tell what kind of potion it is and what it’s used for. Otherwise, I won’t be able to refine it, or it could be a mistake. That would be even scarier,” Audrey agreed imdiately, her performance very neat.
Even the man was stunned. However, when he thought about how he had so many hostages in his hands, it would be difficult for Audrey not to agree. He felt relieved again, and he even revealed a smug smile.
“Co now.” The man brought Audrey to a table. There were many expensive dicinal herbs on it, but this was not what Audrey was concerned about. She was concerned about one of the fruits.
Soul catcher fruit. It was said that the soul catcher fruit was mixed with human blood. It could make the person who took it listen to the person who provided the blood.
Of course, Audrey had only read about it in a book. She had never seen it with her own eyes.
However, thinking about it, the book only had a rough description. Otherwise, why did the man not use that thod directly? Instead, he wanted to refine a potion.
“What are you refining? I’ve never seen it before.” Audrey pretended not to know.
“Soul catcher.” The man snorted coldly and said frankly, “With this potion, I can do whatever I want. Miss Audrey, for your friend’s sake, you’d better not play any tricks.”
‘Since you know what it is, why do you not refine it yourself?’ Audrey snorted coldly in her heart and asked disdainfully.
Soul catcher was not a particularly difficult potion. High-level alchemists could casually do it. Since the man could refine a potion, he must have so ability.
“You ask too many questions.” The man clearly did not want to answer. “Hurry up and refine it. Otherwise, your friend will be in danger.”
Hearing this, Audrey’s eyes turned cold, and a complicated look flashed across her eyes.
Soul catcher was a forbidden potion. It was not allowed to be refined anymore. If she refined it for the Carol Association, she would be aiding the wicked.
Audrey would never do that.
