During the busy process, Lu Yuan had no idea how to talk about the day when he had an accident, and had contacted all the people he had come into contact with again.

Sure enough, the target was quickly positioned on a second-level mage. It was very simple. No one here cared about the life or death of a magic apprentice. Like Lu Yuan, walking with his wounds, most mages and apprentices turned a blind eye and didn't care at all. There was only one person, and he looked at it three times!

After François followed Lu Yuan several times, he completely ignored him. Don’t say that the things he did could not be confirmed, so what if he confirmed it? He was afraid of the seventh-level mage William Gast, but he was not afraid of a small apprentice like Lu Yuan. With his background guarantee, William dared not do anything to him. He just looked at it a few more times because he wanted to verify the explosive power of his bottle of potion.

Francois completely left Lu Yuan behind and began to be busy with his own affairs.

Lu Yuan picked out all the materials required by François, plus the materials he had just recorded in the laboratory. Lu Yuan smiled gently. François was making a "fire-breathing ring". This is a ring that can cast the "burning hand" spell three times a day. Each time it is used, it can spray flames into the conical area in front of the front. The area is not much damage and it is used to deal with creatures like goblins. However, the popular game of playing the fire dragon among the nobles of the Baldur Gate has greatly increased the sales of this ring. When telling stories in the salon, put the ring in front of the mouth and play the fire dragon and spraying the conical flames, which arouses the pretentious and delicate voices of the noble young women. What a moving picture.

So this kind of ring is now popular, and it costs thousands of gold coins, which is even more expensive than a protective flame ring.

What François wants to make is such a ring. He inlaid the forged ring with rubies, smeared with ox hair and cast the "burning hand" three times in a row, and the enchantment will be successful. He is now a second-level mage, with three spell positions every day, just making one such ring. Lu Yuan continued to search for documents and finally found the materials needed for an apprentice to make ox hair mucus. Lu Yuan patted his hands gently, and it seemed that revenge would not take long.

Lu Yuan passed on Slime's mucus and cow hair to the mage apprentice. The right amount of weight was exchanged for a complaining look. The apprentice who could not deduct any more could only curse Lu Yuan, while cutting the cow hair into pieces and mixing it evenly with Slime's mucus. Then he hurriedly walked to the mage's laboratory with the finished product. Watching the production of a magic item, this was an amazing experience.

Unfortunately, the mage obviously had a bad temper today. After taking the mixture, he closed the laboratory door tactfully before the apprentice could make a request! This gave the apprentice another person who could curse.

François fixed the ring stably on the clamps of the experiment table, soaked the gems in the mixture and salvaged them perfectly on the holder of the ring. François was the son of a noble family's jewelry maintenance servant, and had a deep attainment in cutting gemstones, which made the gem ring items he produced more in line with the requirements of the nobles. The price was directly increased by one third, and most of the income belonged to him personally.

The exquisite ring, perfectly cut rubies, and the slightest bits of cow hair on it were particularly disgusting. François decided to cast the spell early to burn the dirty things and let the magic ring emit a bright red light. He calmed and stretched forward with his hands at dull corners and recited the spell. A red cone-shaped flame erupted from his fingers, burning the ruby ​​ring. The lit mucus emitted a burnt smell.

François pulled the wrench, and the ring turned 120 degrees, and he again displayed the "burning hand" at the ring. The ring emitted a red light, which was a sign of being heated to the limit. François pulled the wrench again with satisfaction, allowing the ring to move to the last side. Where he did not notice, the ruby ​​was covered with a strange red light.

He smiled, and the third perfect "burning hand" accurately displayed the last side of the ring.

With a loud "boom", François's laboratory gate was blown out by an explosion, smashing the apprentice who was still wandering in the corridor to his head and bleeding! He covered his head and looked at the messy laboratory in surprise, so scared that he could not speak at all. Although he had caused an explosion, it was simply incomparable to a formal mage!

In less than a minute, Master Habathur Delin rushed over with anger on his face.

"What's going on?!" He shouted at the apprentice who was still squatting on the ground and holding his head.

"I didn't curse him!" the apprentice screamed and cried, afraid that Master Habathur Delin would kill him.

"Get out!" The voice of the great wizard made the entire second floor shake. Habathur Delin ignored the scared apprentice and walked straight into the laboratory with fragments and strange smoke everywhere. The bullshit curse, and a hundred apprentices cursed me every day. He muttered, swept around, picked up the one that flew into the door, the container that once filled with ox hair mixed with mucus, sniffed it, and cursed a few more times again, not knowing who he was scolding.

The task lists in the room had been burned. Judging from the remaining ones, it was obvious that Master François was planning to do something overestimated and then failed for granted. That's it. Habathur Delin looked around the nearly scrapped laboratory, cursed a few more words, and turned and left. Even the trembling apprentice did not take a look at it again.

So of course he didn't know that the apprentice sent only a mixture of cow hair crumbs, the standard material for making fire-breathing rings. Instead of the evening primrose solution he smelled.

In the production of magic rings, the difference is a slight difference. The fire spitting ring, the flame bead ring and the fireball ring are the difference between one and two materials. Lu Yuan added a little bit of evening primrose powder to the slime, which only had one fingernail, and the formula was to make the fireball ring. However, when the evening primrose was not enough and the spell cast was not fireball but the burning hand, only God knew the consequences.

Of course, the most common consequence is an explosion. When it comes to fire elements and rubies, it is a violent explosion.

That's it. If Habasher Delin hadn't come in person, others wouldn't even notice the smell of evening primrose.

Anyway, this matter has just passed.

*********************

Lu Yuan and two other apprentices, Alice and Lestrade stood quietly with breath.

In front of them, a middle-aged mage wearing a gorgeous mage robe and a crown stared at them expressionlessly. Including Lu Yuan, the three apprentices began to seep sweat from their heads, and the female apprentice Alice's legs could be seen trembling slightly.

This person is the owner of the witchcraft grocery store, the nominal mentor and fate controller of Lu Yuan, and the level 15 great wizard Habathur Delin!

This place called the grocery store is one of the best magic items shops in the Baldur Gate and the entire Sword Coast. Its appearance looks like a huge yurt with a glass dome, covering an area of ​​thousands of square meters. Inside, the space folding magic is applied to expand its space by more than ten times. The entire building, including the underground, is divided into four floors and hundreds of rooms.

The upper floor is Habathur Delin's residence and laboratory, and the first floor is mostly shops open to the outside world. Formal mages like William who work part-time will have a room on the first or second floor. Hundreds of apprentices are doing various repetitive or dangerous work in the reinforced basement. They call this place "Honey Cover" because it is divided into dozens of exactly the same rooms, and in order to reduce losses, each room has only necessary items.

And the owners and protectors of all this stand before them.

At noon, Lu Yuan, who received the message of Habathur Delin, rushed to the alchemy factory in the witchcraft grocery store, and was then led into an area that he had never entered before, and came to the presence of Master Habathur Delin.

"I know," the great mage's low voice sounded. Lu Yuan saw the two of them breathing a light breath, and he knew that he was almost the same. The reason was that they were forced by the great mage's awesome oppression, while Lu Yuan was worried that François would be exposed.

"I know, you think I hate you, and you think I torture you for fun." The great master walked slowly.

"No, I don't hate you, I don't even know any of you."

Isn’t this more hated? Lu Yuan thought in surprise.

"Many of you are injured, some die, and everyone lives in the shadow of death every day, and you hate me." He suddenly stopped and laughed twice, "It's normal, because I was the same back then. I am also on the verge of life and death every day until I become a formal wizard. What we survived will get sweet fruits. Those who fail are the price they pay."

"In the past, today, and in the future, you will be like this when you accept apprentices. Before you understand, even if you hate them, it will be the best ladder for you to reach the palace."

"You three can stand in front of me in advance, not because you are excellent enough. But you have a decent background, which makes me hesitate for a second or two when I send you to death. Recently, someone always suggested that I add an assistant to the potion experiment, so you were brought to me by your background."

"No. 2", he looked at the girl named Alice, and she immediately curled up in her chest and shivered, and tears began to simmer in her eyes, "Your hand is still pinching the spell posture? Let it go. That's fake news! Learning magic is your own business, all I need is your alchemy talent! I only take alchemy."

Alice quickly let go of her hands that were pinched together and went behind her back. Although she refused to cry, her tears still wet her chest.

"No. 3", his eyes turned to Restrade, "Your hands are not burned clearly, and you have practiced making fire glue many times? Unfortunately, that's also fake news. I hope you haven't lost too much money. At least, practicing more potions is still useful."

Restrade's mouth twitched, trying to laugh and say something, but in the end he just twisted his face into a strange shape and said nothing.

"No. 1", he looked at Lu Yuan, "I thought you were either dead or ran away, so I didn't give you fake news."

OK, can you be more hatred?!

"Now, there is enough nonsense! Enter the room behind you, and there are questions. These are all things I have done, maybe once, maybe twice, who cares? An apprentice who can't learn secretly is not a good apprentice! Isn't it? Give you two hours, and if you can't finish, you will go to the basement! I promise that before the rest of the people die, the loser will have no hope to come to me again!"

Lu Yuan turned around and saw a door with the words "1".

The so-called title is a table with more than a dozen materials such as moon grass, flame grass, Dayuan chrysanthemum, fluorite, crushed coal core, etc. As for what potion needs to be made, guess? There is no explanation or prompt, there is not even a piece of paper on the table. Lu Yuan quickly arranged and combined these materials in his mind.

Invincible potion! A potion that can greatly increase the warrior's instant protection and magic saves. Although the effective time is only 30 seconds, within 30 seconds, you can rush around like a giant dragon.

If this potion was prepared by Lu Yuan, the success rate would not exceed 20%. The material was given three times, but in terms of time, it could only fail once at most. However, now Lu Yuan's "alchemy" skill is as high as level 11, and it even exceeds the level of most formal mages below level 5! He is 70% sure of this potion!

First, he sat in a five-minute meditation state, entered a shallow meditation state, cleared up distracting thoughts, and let the mind go empty. Then he stood up and began to extract matter in sequence using refinement. He guessed that the invincible potion may be the most difficult one, just like the information behind the sequence of false news refracted, because he is the one with the shallowest background.

The background is also part of strength. Lu Yuan, who has social experience, certainly understands it, so there is nothing to complain about.

He must complete the fastest and best to ensure that the assistant's quota will not be replaced. Of course, he will never take out the separation and extraction, chemical synthesis, etc. that do not belong to this world. What he is going to fight for now is just an assistant position, which is not worth taking his life out to take risks.

The powerful mental power allowed him to easily control the power of the arcane and complete one step after another. After an hour, a bottle of something similar to slime mucus was put into the container. Since this potion looked like slime mucus, it was usually placed in an opaque porcelain bottle when it was sold. The store price was as high as 1,500 gold coins per bottle!

Of course, it tastes more like a slime solution! Unfortunately, it was impossible to return the goods at that time, right?

Perhaps the instant angry feeling of drinking the potion is also part of the effect of igniting the potion. Just like a piece of fluorescent moss can perform light Technique, and only by eating a spider can perform spider movement. Who knows the mystery and complexity of magic?

After sitting in meditation again and recovering, he pushed the door and walked out.

Sure enough, Alice was already standing there, looking at the transparent bottle and blue liquid in her hand, absorbing potion, a potion that can absorb impact and lightning, with a difficulty coefficient of only half of the invincible potion!

Master Habatha Delin, who was sitting behind the table, waved his hand gently. Lu Yuan felt the porcelain bottle in his hand rise up and let go. The porcelain bottle flew over and landed on the master's table. He opened it and observed it, then dripped and tasted it carefully.

"You can leave and come to the third floor tomorrow."

After Habathur Delin finished speaking, he stuffed the potion and put it on the side, and went to work hard on his own.

Lu Yuan bowed and stepped back. When he left, he seemed to hear the sound of the girl named Alice crying loudly. It was nothing to do with me. He did not look back and walked out.

Tomorrow will be a new beginning.
