Time passed quickly, and another two months passed.
The gray sky was a bit gloomy, and the Wizarding Academy was located in a canyon in a misty forest. The sun was scarce all year round. Coupled with the recent light rain, it was even more chilly.
Courtyard 172, inside Byron's laboratory.
"Comor flamingo mushrooms are boiled with clean water, and then 15 grams of juice are extracted." On the workbench, Byron looked solemnly, staring at the experimental platform in front of him, and at the same time instructed Enzo, "Prepare 8ml red-toothed lizard. Pour the blood into the container after detoxification!"
"Understood!" Enzo replied.
He quickly picked up some Komor flamingo mushrooms, boiled them in hot water, and accurately extracted 15 grams of juice, and then poured some red-toothed lizard blood from another clay pot for detoxification and purification. .
"Simacks, Udoli."
Spit out syllables in his mouth, Byron's eyes focused, and his mental power turned into silk threads. After Enzo prepared the blood of Komor Flamingo and the red tooth lizard, he immediately opened the candlestick to its extreme.
A black flame rose suddenly, licking the bottom of the beaker like a snake kiss.
The orange-red liquid was tumbling and bubbling. After Comor's flamingo sap was poured into it, it became as viscous as magma, but the temperature dropped suddenly. Byron saw the timing and decisively poured 8ml of the red tooth lizard blood into it.
boom! Bah! !
The red gas rose like a mushroom cloud, but then it dissipated everywhere, and a disgusting pungent odor came out and spread throughout the laboratory.
"Failed again?" Byron was expressionless, and dipped his finger in the beaker.
The viscous red liquid was sent into his mouth, Byron frowned, a confused look appeared in his eyes, and he muttered suspiciously.
"The amount of agave powder is just right, and the blood processing of spiked cactus and red tooth lizard is fine, but why did the final result fail?"
"Could it be the dose of Comor flamingo mushrooms?" Enzo asked tentatively.
"Probably not." Byron shook his head and poured the failed potion in the beaker into the trash can. His face was ugly and said, "I have experimented with Komore Flammulina many times, and 15 grams is the most appropriate dose. "
"It seems that we still need to continue the experiment." Enzo opened his palm helplessly.
During the two months of becoming Byron's assistant, except for the initial refining of several batches of low-level potions, Enzo spent most of his time researching new potions with Byron.
The research on new potions has always been the most obsessed thing for all potions masters.
Since having a concept in his mind five years ago, Byron has started countless experiments and devoted almost all of his energy to the research of new potions, but the new potions temporarily named [Burning Potion] But it has been unsuccessful.
But this is not surprising, even for potion geniuses, the development of a new type of potion will inevitably be accompanied by countless failures.
According to rumors, it took more than 200 years for the Tier 4 wizard'Matidal' to conquer the shadow world to develop the [Sleepless Heart] potion!
"Forget it, let's put aside the new potion."
Shaking his head, Byron said solemnly.
"Starting from tomorrow, you won't use the lab to report. The college recently assigned me a mandatory task. I may be out for a few months. I will notify you when I come back."
"Oh? Are you going to perform a mandatory task?" Enzo raised his eyebrows.
"I received the notice yesterday." Byron looked helpless and shook his head. "Since I am a member of [Phantom of the Crows], I have to bear some responsibilities, but the senior management of the academy also knows that I am not good at fighting, so the assignment is not dangerous. Sex."
"Oh, that's good." Enzo nodded, knowingly.
Although compulsory tasks are the responsibility of every apprentice, for the senior management of the academy, Byron is a rare potion genius. Naturally, he has special arrangements that will not put him in danger.
After bidding farewell to Byron, Enzo left the laboratory.
"I have spent too much energy on potions research. My mandatory task should be three months away. During this period, I will take the time to improve my strength!" Quickly walked back to the bedroom, Enzo heard someone follow him before he even entered the door. Say hello to yourself.
"Hi, Enzo!" Jora waved at Enzo.
He seemed to have just returned from the outside, dressed in a gray robe and dusty, his feet were covered with mud, and a blood-stained rapier hung around his waist, which looked a bit nondescript.
"Are you out on a mission again?" Enzo looked at each other up and down.
"Oh! No way." Jora shrugged and smiled bitterly. "Everything in the academy needs magic stones. If you want to improve your strength, you have to take a little risk. We are not like you. We just need to be an assistant to Senior Byron. Can make money."
Enzo chuckled and shook his head. What Qiaola said was the fact that studying in the Wizarding Academy would be impossible without magic stones, and ordinary apprentices had no channels to make money, so they could only venture to perform tasks outside the academy.
During this period of time, Jorah, Bourne, Winnie and others formed a team and went out to perform missions many times.
Fortunately, they were lucky, and several missions were unpredictable. Jora had invited Enzo to join the team, but due to the work of the laboratory and the plan he made, Enzo could only refuse.
"So you just came back from outside?" Enzo asked.
"Hey, I just completed a patrol mission and earned 5 magic stones." Qiao La brows and gestures with both hands, saying ": The journey went smoothly, but when I came back to the skinning woods, I encountered a few baby monsters. It's so hard to solve them!"
Enzo nodded slightly, but sighed in his heart.
The patrol mission is facing extremely high danger, but the reward is only 5 magic stones. A team is evenly distributed, and everyone gets little profit. If compared with it, the work of the potion assistant is simply heaven.
"By the way, Enzo, do you know the black market outside the academy?" Qiao La looked around suddenly, took out a piece of parchment from his arms, and said mysteriously ": I recently got a map on the black market, which is said to be Leading to an ancient ruin in the Second Age, Byrne and I are going to explore, do you want to be together?
"Ancient ruins?" Enzo was a little surprised, and took the parchment handed by Qiao La.
"Yeah, that's a treasure left over from the Second Age!" Qiaola said with a spirit of excitement in her eyes. "We formed a team to explore. If we can find one or two treasures, we will be rich." ."
Enzo remained silent, staring at the parchment in his hand.
Judging from the lines drawn above, this is indeed a map, showing the address of an ancient ruin in a place marked with a red circle.
"Will the items found on the black market be genuine?" Enzo was puzzled and ordered the chip to scan.
"Ding! Scan target: a suspected map, made of ordinary goatskin, without any traces of magic energy!"
"Sure enough, how could a map made of ordinary goatskin involve ancient ruins from the Second Age?" Enzo shook his head helplessly, returned the parchment to Qiaora, and asked, "How much did you spend on this map? Magic stone?"
"It took 2 magic stones, what's wrong?" Qiao La scratched her head.
"If a map that has been passed down from the Second Age to the present day, how could it be made of ordinary sheepskin?" Enzo spread out his palm and said earnestly ": Next time you meet the person who sells your map, remember to show him face Give a hard punch!"
