Chapter 128: Putting on a Face



Chapter 128: Putting on a Face

Regarding the effect of the second body secret medicine, the information of the Primal Secret Pharmacy School made it distinctly clear. In fact, it imitated the ability of a Doppler. It could make the person who took the secret medicine shapeshift into another person, which was equivalent to having a second Identity.

The reason why it was not directly called the Shapeshifting Secret Medicine was because there was already another high-level secret medicine with the same name.

Comparing their effects, the second body secret medicine was not only much weaker but also had many defects

The real "shapeshifting secret medicine", once taken, was almost equivalent to possessing the ability of a Doppler.

But the Second Body Secret Medicine couldn't do that.

After swallowing it, he could only choose to become another human being, and cannot change into other beings.

At the same time, it was not a permanent secret medicine.

An excellent-quality Second Body Secret Medicine would only last a month.

If you didnt take a second portion within the time limit, your transformation would be returned to its original form.

At the same time, the scope of the second body secret medicine was also limited by gender.

If taken by a man, he can only transform within the range of his gender and vice versa.

Of course, this was not important for Tang Qi, but some people with special hobbies would feel disappointed.

"The Primal Secret Pharmacy School shouldn't have produced such a secret medicine, but in any camp that favors justice, occasionally there will be one or two deviants. The one who invented this secret medicine should be one of them." After identifying the Doppler's heart, he immediately began to prepare the other materials.

At the same time, he didn't forget to extract all the knowledge about the second body secret medicine in his mind.

Unexpectedly, he found that there was another anecdote following the recipe of the secret medicine, which seemed to be about the origin of the second body secret medicine.

After reading Tang Qi for a while, he couldn't help but become speechless.

The reason that the deviant secret pharmacist created the second body secret medicine was actually a very unpredictable accident.

While he was traveling, he met a beautiful young girl. The two fell in love, but on the night of the union, the young girl confessed to him. She was actually a half-doppler monster, and at the age of five, she had awakened her inborn talent.

However, since she only possessed half of a Doppler's bloodline, she could only shapeshift once in her life, so she chose to become a girl.

The girl didn't know what happened the night after she confessed. She only knew that the secret pharmacist had successfully invented the "Second Body Secret Medicine" shortly after returning to the school. Which limitations were its short duration and the scope of transformation.

A very sad tale!

However, without the dedication of this predecessor, the second-body secret medicine, a temporary secret medicine that can be refined by disciples below the apprentice level, was unlikely to be born.

Out of respect, Tang Qi silently expressed his sympathy, and then happily began to prepare the refinement.

There was only one batch of materials, so naturally, there was only one chance.

Tang Qi exhaled deeply, jolted his mind, and immediately entered the "secret pharmacy" skill state.

With a progress of up to 41%, Tang Qi's movements were extremely smooth and natural.

All the materials were quickly submerged into the heated pot.

The blood of a chameleon, dried mountain ants, green elf juice, heather pollenall were materials that melt quickly. Soon, a pot of liquid mixed with various colors boiled in front of Tang Qi.

As the temperature got higher and higher, the liquid became more turbid and began to appear mushy, and a scent of drowsiness began to pervade the air.

It was at this time that Tang Qi put the dried heart into the crucible pot.

Thump!

Within a second or two, Tang Qi suddenly heard a heartbeat.

Just when he thought it was an illusion, one after another, a continuous, violent heartbeat began to ring. In the smoky pot, the originally small heart which had been immersed in the liquid was expanding bit by bit, and it was about to return to its normal size.

Phuish!

A long and thin steel needle suddenly appeared in Tang Qi's hands, directly piercing into the expanding heart.

Hiss!

Like a leaking balloon, the heart shrank rapidly, and a green liquid sputtered out.

When the heart disappeared completely, only a pool of emerald green liquid remained in the pot.

Tang Qi's gaze immediately focused, and when a familiar light emerged, a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

[Mystic Object: Second Body Secret Medicine. ]

[Quality: Excellent. ]

[Information Fragment 1: A secret medicine of excellent quality, the person who consumes it can obtain the ability to transform into another person, but it can only last for a month. After confirming the changed form, he can switch between his real body and second body at will. ]

[Information Fragment 2: The scope of change will be confirmed according to the gender of the user. After confirming the form, it cannot be altered. ]

"It worked!"

Although he was confident that with his attainments in secret pharmacy, coupled with the cheat-like special ability, the chance of success was very high, he still couldn't restrain his joy after seeing the end product.

But looking at the pot of emerald green liquid in front of him and thinking of its origin, Tang Qi frowned slightly.

But considering his plan, plus the special ability, it confirmed that this was a secret medicine of excellent quality without any problems.

Tang Qi took a breath and didn't transfer the liquid into a glass bottle. Instead, he directly picked up the pot and poured the liquid that had cooled down into his mouth.

Gurgle!

Gurgle!

As expected, the unpleasant taste did not appear. Instead, there was a sweet and cool flavor, but when it was all poured into his belly.

"Boom!"

"Thump Thump Thump Thump"

The sound of his heartbeat rang out suddenly.

And this time, there was no warning at all, it happened continuously and extremely rapidly. Tang Qi's eyes immediately became blurred, in a trance, his mind seemed to be drawn out and entered into a void, and in front of his eyes was a body.

A body that seemed to be made out of clay blank and could be kneaded at will.

Huh?

Subconsciously, Tang Qi stretched out his mental tentacles and began to knead and shape this body.

And the heartbeat sounded like a countdown.

Not knowing how much time had passed, a completely different body in front of him had taken shape, but there seemed to be a little flaw on his face. At this moment, Tang Qi was completely immersed in the feeling of "pinching his face". When he saw the flaw, he was about to stretch out his tentacles again and modify it.

But this is the moment, there was a "Bang".

His mind was kicked out.

That was the last sound of a heartbeat, the countdown had come to an end.

Tang Qi opened his eyes again, almost immediately, he felt something different. The body was still his own, but there was an extremely strange sense of strangeness.

With this feeling, Tang Qi slowly walked to the floor mirror at the corner of the living room.

Hiss!

Even though he was prepared, he was still shocked by the scene in front of him.

What appeared in the mirror, was no longer a handsome high school student, but a rough and sturdy man with a huge difference in figure. His clothes were barely supporting his huge body, which looked a bit funny.

The most striking thing was that this big man's unshaven face had a very obvious scar that extends from above his right eye to his cheek.

Fortunately, the face pinched by Tang Qi looked rough. In fact, it was a middle-aged man with a deep outline and the temperament of one who had experienced the vicissitudes of life. With a scar on his face, there was a strange sense of harmony.

The source of the scar was undoubtedly caused by his mental tentacles when he was kicked out at the last minute.

"This is my second body."

Tang Qi looked at his other "self" in the mirror curiously and felt the difference silently.

The sense of disharmony was fading away, and it wouldnt take long before he could adapt to this newly changed body.
