On the third day after Xiao Lan mastered [Guardian of the Stars], the literature review ended.
Dean didn't know the specific undercurrents that had gone through, and what kind of interests those people behind the scenes had for this purpose. Anyway, in the notification letter he received, there was only a simple "review approved."
It is very concise and clear, burying countless quarrels and disputes under the surface of calm.
Dean felt relieved that the dust had finally settled, but also felt that the surprise was lessened by Sigrid's spoilers.
He originally wanted Lucy and Ronan to inquire about other people's review results, but before the children could take action, one of the parties came to the door himself.
"Good morning!"
As soon as Dean opened the door when he heard the sound of wind chimes, Imiya squeezed in unceremoniously.
Lilia and Alvia followed her, as if they were back at their own home, not feeling the awkwardness of visiting someone else's home.
The three witches swaggered past in front of them. Dean let out a long sigh. Before he could answer, a bucket of black tea was thrown into his arms.
The tea bucket made of special ore fell straight onto his chest, making a muffled sound. With such force, if Dean hadn't been parasitized by the fallen star hair demon, his body strength gradually increased, and he would have been able to kill him directly this time. He smashed it down.
Lilia, who threw the tea bucket, obviously knew this. She originally planned to use magic to help Dean, but she didn't expect that the other party would catch the tea bucket made of special ore so easily.
The look of ease made her raise her eyebrows in surprise, but when Lilia's eyes shifted to Dean's hair, the surprise quickly turned into reality.
"What's this?"
After patting his chest that felt nothing, Dean suppressed his overjoyed feeling. As if nothing had happened, he held up the tea bucket and looked at the items stored inside through the colorless ore.
The tea bucket has obviously been specially polished. Through the barrier, you can clearly see the tea leaves wrapped in red crystal shells, which look like gems under the sunlight. Shining with dazzling light.
This was Dean's first time seeing this type of black tea. He shook the tea bucket in his hand slightly, trying to observe it more carefully.
Glancing at his country bumpkin-like behavior, Lilia shook her head and introduced: "That's Cerro black tea. It was picked not long ago. It's a celebration gift for you."
With the name, Dean quickly matched the obviously extraordinary black tea in his hand with his memory.
"That Cerro black tea?"
He asked with a surprised look on his face: "I remember this seems to be a black tea specially reserved for royal families of various countries, right?"
"Grown on the back of the high-level Warcraft Cerro Tree Turtle, the output is rare, because it contains energy that humans can also absorb, so the price is extremely expensive..."
"This is such a great gift."
After calculating the approximate value of this bucket of tea, Dean suddenly felt that the tea bucket in his arms was a little hot. He thanked Lilia. It was rare that these free-flowing witches were much more pleasing to the eye than usual. a feeling of.
"Expensive? It's average. It doesn't cost much."
Seeing Dean holding the tea bucket and seeming to cherish it, Lilia responded to what Dean said about the expensive price and wrote lightly.
"Otherwise, the Witch's House wouldn't have been selling tea for so many years and couldn't even afford to raise a few children."
"What sells tea?"
Dean didn't realize the message behind Lilia's words for a moment.
Noticing his confused look, Imiya explained from the side: "In the sea of Gaia trees near the Witch's House, there is a group of Cerro Tree Turtles. Before Lilia made money, the Witch's House relied on selling Cerro black tea is used to feed the children. Although this is no longer necessary, the old witch is still used to picking tea leaves regularly and selling them to subsidize the family."
"The bucket you have in your hand was just collected from one of the young turtles last week. After the old witch processed it, she sent it to us, but we have drunk this stuff many times at the Witch's House before. It’s not unusual, Lilia brought it over as a gift just as she was about to see you.”
For some reason, when they described him like this, Dean suddenly felt as if the tea in his hand was no longer so precious.
He handed the tea leaves to Lucy and asked her to help brew them. Then he turned around and thanked the witches half-heartedly.
"...Thank you very much for your consideration."
The witches nodded unceremoniously, with expressions of well-earned expressions on their faces.
Following Imiya's instructions for making tea, Lucy quickly brewed the black tea and served it.
Lilia was the first to raise the black tea, replacing the wine with black tea, and said to Dean: "Congratulations on passing the literature review."
After saying that, Lilia drank it down boldly, and Dean helped her refill the tea. Just as he was about to say thank you, he heard her continue, "It's a little bit beyond my expectation."
Imiya helped translate, "Lilia means that in everyone's opinion, you are the one in the most dangerous situation. It is a bit unexpected for her to pass the review so smoothly."
It doesn't sound like it's any better.
After looking at the witches gathered at the table in front of him, Dean stopped worrying about hearing any serious blessings from their mouths. He directly picked up the black tea and made a gesture of clinking glasses.
"Thanks for caring."
The witches bumped into each other in cooperation.
Putting the tea cup to his mouth, Dean began to taste this outrageously expensive high-grade tea with anticipation.
As soon as the tea was taken into the mouth, a rich fragrance instantly spread from the mouth and tongue.
"Um?"
Dean's eyes lit up and he exclaimed.
One was sighing at the high quality of this black tea, while the other was because a strong energy flowed into his body along with this sip of tea.
The energy was so gentle that Dean felt warm all over, and then heard Xiao Lan making a contented sound.
It was obvious that he had also benefited from the tea.
Unexpectedly, drinking tea could also benefit the Fallen Star Hair Demon, so Dean immediately relayed his situation to Lilia.
Before she finished speaking, Imiya couldn't help but question: "Are you sure what you drank was tea and not medicine?"
She looked at Dean suspiciously.
Could this person be hallucinating after drinking tea?
She has never had such a miraculous reaction since she drank this black tea since she was a child.
"it is as expected."
However, after listening to Dean's description, Lilia showed a clear look.
That expression, as if a certain guess in his heart had been verified, instantly attracted Dean's attention.
"What's the meaning?"
Feeling that something was not quite right, Dean looked at Lilia with a suspicious expression.
Lilia supported her chin and explained with an inquiring expression: "Although Cerro Black Tea is a rare product of Warcraft that humans can drink directly, it is after all something born from Warcraft, and it is best obtained by eating it. The one with energy is still a monster."
"After you explained the parasitic principle of the fallen star hair monster last time, I guessed that the things produced by this kind of monster might be particularly useful for you, so I brought it here to try it out."
"That's what happened."
Looking at Lilia's frank expression, Dean's facial muscles twitched slightly, and even his originally calm expression showed a crack.
