"'Classical' Literature" is interesting. Why do I still need to study thermodynamics? Isn't this a university course? Celestial mechanics? I am in high school, not a thermonuclear institute." Athena has already regarded it as the rebellious period. Salomon couldn't help complaining, "You don't expect me to build a nuclear reactor now, do you?"
"Shut up and obey my arrangements. The Supreme Mage does not have a diploma, but I do. All your courses are arranged by me." Athena suddenly became a little irritable, "In a sense, I am your mother, you must listen My arrangement."
"But this is not the time of ancient Greece."
"This is the rebellious period. The more I ask you to do something, the more you want to resist. Why can't you just listen to me like the Supreme Mage?" Athena took a long breath, patted her chest and said, " Well, let’s talk, let’s talk openly and honestly.”
"I know that full-time school makes you a little uncomfortable, but your life can't be just magic. You should have some ordinary people's thoughts. You should have fine wine and flowers. These things will not be outdated even after thousands of years. I know you The hormones secreted in your body now will make you think I am annoying, but you should also have things that ordinary people have." Athena said, "I have prepared a gift for you - a Ducati motorcycle. I I know you won’t stay in school forever, so I put the car downstairs. It’s my gift to you. You can ride on it, go for a ride on the street, and fall in love with a few ordinary girls. Even if you bring I won't care if they go to spend the night, as long as you remember to wear a condom. You have already taken sex education classes. But the same cannot be said for female spies and witches. If you can't control them, they will take advantage of you."
"Let's not talk about whether I am interested in motorcycles." Salomon said hesitantly, "You should know that I am an egalitarian..."
"That's good. At least you are much smarter than the ancient Greeks. They didn't give women the right to vote." Athena raised her eyebrows. "Ever since they voted to execute Socrates, I thought they were a bunch of idiots. It’s broken. What’s wrong? Keep talking.”
"I don't think there's anything wrong with the witch, Athena." Salomon almost choked, and it was inevitable that he was a little tired talking to the immortal species. "This is a game, a game between emotions. When two people get along, they need to adapt to each other. .And I really have nothing to do with female spies.”
I've lived for so long, what bitch haven't I seen? Athena wriggled her lips, but still swallowed the words. She planned to express herself in another way. But before she could speak, Salomon spoke first.
"These are rarely expressed in love movies. I think you may have no experience. After all, you are a virgin..."
"But I live long."
"I don't think previous dramas would have shown this aspect..."
"But I live long."
"..."
"anything else?"
"I'm going back to Karma Taj."
"Remember to come tomorrow night, you have already missed your appointment with little Lorna."
——————————
Salomon's full-time school life was no different from his private high school days.
He slept in Kamal Taj until seven o'clock in the morning London time, then got up and opened the portal to go back to the dormitory of Eton College to wash up, put on clothes and a cloak (so that the dormitory master could see him), and then enjoyed the unique food of the old dormitory. A sixteenth-century English court breakfast (you can also opt for a modern recipe if you don't like it, but a smart person knows what to choose, don't they?).
His main courses include mathematics, physics, chemistry, and advanced mathematics. This is the most useful course for him, because most of his magic requires precise calculations to operate, and it requires the use of That is the "intelligence" attribute. Since he is in grade D, he needs to study in a total of 10 study groups. In addition to the above four subjects and physical education courses, he also has art courses (mainly drama), classical languages (ancient Greek and Latin) , modern foreign languages (actually Chinese), theology, and modern English (counted as two study groups) courses. Although most of them are not A-Level subjects, they are also courses that must be studied at his grade.
Salomon's favorite courses are nothing more than chemistry and physics. Although these two courses gave him a lot of trouble in his previous life, Eton College has extremely rich practical opportunities, and Salomon can complete his homework. In addition, he used the equipment here to complete his alchemical works.
He had no intention of practicing the path of a shapeshifter alchemist on himself. Those alchemists who tickled people after taking mutation potions seemed a bit crazy to him. He plans to start with alchemy bombs and healing potions. The short-term goal is to make an inspiration potion to inspire inspiration and improve brain power. As for whether he will become an enlightenment chemist who is good at brain power or a creation scholar who is good at making constructs. , or even be a master of hand-to-hand medicine and an internal medicine master, it all depends on what his future path to magic requires.
As for the source of alchemy materials, he purchased them through the portal of Kama Taj to the wizard city Vandazar Fu between dimensions, which is the relay point between different dimensions, and all those in the material world [note 1] Mystics will come here to communicate, which is equivalent to a "doorless bar" in all dimensions and is only open to spellcasters. Vandazar Fu is also the source of a large amount of magical materials for Kama Taj, and Salomon's order of herbal medicines did not attract anyone's attention. In addition, he also secretly caught a blue demon-eating slug from the garden of Fandar Zal Fo and locked it in a box - this slimy magical creature has nothing useful in it and is worthless. Called a waste of magical creatures (the lowest kind), these slugs are everywhere in the garden of Vandal Zal Fo, and their only merit is that they eat magic. Salomon didn't want to just pour the potion he failed to make into the sewer. Who knows, one day four turtles wearing different colored hoods would emerge from the sewer and call him daddy. He wasn't ready yet! Now there is a demon-eating slug that also happens to be dealing with his alchemical waste.
Thinking about Salomon, Eton College would not mind the small matter of missing a few flasks and the housemaster's wine cork. This is indeed the case. No one except the housemaster who had red wine poured all over him cared about this. Little things.
Oh my gosh! The mystic mage suddenly reacted. Did I go to Eton or Hogwarts? Why do you feel there is not much difference between the two?
However, this somewhat ridiculous idea was quickly forgotten by Salomon, because there was another thing that bothered him a little - because this guy Nick Fury would send him text messages every day, but after a while He didn't mention anything serious, just inquired about his location. Because Salomon would turn off his cell phone when he went to Mount Athena and Bayonetta's apartment to avoid being tracked by SHIELD. This organization that monitors the world is also involved.
In Nick Fury's mind, Salomon is an extremely dangerous figure - a magical killer who never abides by the law, only abides by the precepts of an ancient organization, and has global mobility. He didn't believe that the organization's commandments included "no killing." He had already seen the fate of the action team members. The survivor could only survive by lying in bed and drinking juice. And being trapped by the contract, he could not reveal Salomon's information to his agents and colleagues. Therefore, the king of agents could only act as Salomon's monitor himself. Such "surveillance" was carried out every day, as long as Salomon was alone. When you turn your phone off and on again, you will be bombarded with text messages from Nick Fury.
Nick Fury knows that this behavior is useless, because he cannot restrict the Mystic through any national means, and even doing so may cause the Mystic to fight back. Moreover, there is an organization behind Salomon that is much longer than the history of the United States. Nick Fury will not ask for trouble. All he can do is send text messages.
Even though Salomon would text back at first, after months of being bombarded with messages, he had learned to ignore Nick Fury's messages. But he can't drag Nick Fury into the blacklist, because he will send text messages from different numbers...
"I don't want to use my love text messages on a man. Please let Agent Natasha Romanoff do this. Although I know she is very busy at work, I know that there is a beauty on the other end of the phone. It will make me feel better. Your bald head makes me not happy at all. 'No insurance', 'No loan', 'Already received unemployment benefits', 'Get a divorce, I want a child', 'Nuclear fusion in transit detected' Strike', pick one, and you can pick my auto-reply."
Salomon pressed the phone and set a timer to send messages. He had deliberately calculated that this text message would be sent late at night, Washington time, as the price for Nick Fury's interruption. The mystic ended his day with satisfaction. Tomorrow will be his third month at Eton. Except for his off-campus work and the morning meeting in the chapel, he has carried out all his studies perfectly. He has no Participating in any debates and chorus activities between dormitories, sports only guaranteed minimum exercise time, other than that he had no shortcomings, and even the strict housemaster could not find any fault with his dining etiquette.
Michael's semester is coming to an end, and he will also face an exam and a report, but this is not a problem for him.
At nine o'clock in the evening London time, that is, two o'clock in the morning Washington time, Salomon had just taken a panacea [Note 2] that he made to cheer himself up while reading the magic book. The text message was sent. After leaving, Nick Fury quickly responded with a text message. Salomon glanced curiously. He was very curious about why this guy didn't sleep late at night, and which automatic reply Nick Fury chose - in fact, the latter reason was the key point.
"Let's talk," Nick Fury's text message said, "I need your help."
"No!" Salomon simply refused, because Nick Fury did not choose to automatically reply, "Unless it is stated in the contract, I will not help."
Nick Fury's message came back quickly, "I have the location of a vampire lair, but it's not in New York or Washington. I've helped you, but I have another thing to ask you to help with. How about it?" Peter pays Paul, a proverb meaning people in similar situations help each other.”
"Give me the vampire's address." Salomon dialed the number, "Then tell me what you want to do."

Casting Time: Standard action
Ingredients: Posture
Scope: individuals
Target: myself
Duration: see below
This spell will choose among several effects and create an interesting effect on your health, happiness and joy. The secret potion has no side effects (e.g., being intoxicated with the secret potion will not cause a hangover).
When you use Panacea, choose one of the following effects:
- Pain Relief: You can ignore minor pain, such as arthritis, a cold or a hangover, for an hour. During this time, you gain a +2 resistance bonus on saving throws against pain-effecting spells.
- Clarity: You gain a +1 competence bonus on a single attack roll, saving throw, or skill check for one minute. You choose which roll to use this bonus on, as long as it applies.
-Hallucinations: You can see a variety of interesting illusions within an hour, such as lingering lights, music, cute surreal animals, and more. You can tell yourself that these are untrue, but they will distract you and impose a -2 penalty on your Perception checks.
- Intoxication: Puts you in a state of ecstasy for one hour, as if you had consumed some alcoholic beverage.
- Waking dream: If you use this secret medicine within one hour before going to bed, you will have a waking dream that is completely under your control and will last for one hour.
- Resistance: You gain a +1 resistance bonus on all saving throws for 1 minute.
- Sleep: You fall into a pleasant and comfortable sleep, lasting at least one hour unless awakened. If this is your usual time to sleep, you will continue to sleep normally after the effect of the secret potion wears off.
- Sober: You are fully sober for one hour, and your actions ignore any drunk penalties. Magical and alchemical effects (such as detecting potions) still detect you as drunk. The duration of this elixir does not count towards the time it takes for you to sober up (since it just delays it).
-Toughness: You gain 1 temporary health point for 1 minute.
-Awakening: You can keep yourself awake and without drowsiness within 2 hours, and there will be no side effects such as neurasthenia. You gain a +5 resistance bonus on saving throws against sleep effects, such as lullaby and sleep spells. The use of this secret medicine only delays your sleep time and will not be counted towards your rest and sleep duration. You can use the elixir multiple times, but whenever the elixir ends, you remain as fatigued as if you had not used the elixir.
