Moon Witch, embark on the journey!

Although these unconventional recipes are also useless under normal circumstances, they are only used to deal with some special situations.

"Let's start trying our hands."

As long as the success rate is one third, it seems okay.

After a while, Luna saw a mass of black paste in the glass in front of her. She threw it into the trash can beside her with an expressionless face.

"No, the temperature for processing ice thorn fruit is a bit high..."

It felt like hours had passed as she refined one potion after another. Luna successfully refined seven potions, and the last three were more difficult than the last, making even someone like her who had full wizard-level control feel that it was difficult.

"Isn't it over yet?"

After the seventh potion was submitted, the next test was not given for a long time.

Constantly challenging difficult problems, she felt exhausted but also had an indescribable sense of accomplishment. Luna felt that her ability to make potions was rapidly improving in a short period of time. She even felt a little regretful when she interrupted it at this moment.

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared on the table again.

[Azure Water, Apprentice-level Spiritual Power Growth Potion, requires one finished product. Made within half an hourglass hour.]

Luna was stunned at first, and then she was filled with unbelievable joy.

Magic potions related to the growth of spiritual power are always the most expensive and sought-after! Even if it is only at the apprentice level, the formula is worth at least thousands of magic stones, and it is also difficult to buy!

This is exactly what she needs right now.

"As expected of a high-level wizard! So generous!"

She read the recipe excitedly, trying to memorize it, while checking the three ingredients on the table and verifying them one by one.

Suddenly, her movements paused.

"There's one ingredient missing."

The previous potion recipes always corresponded to the ingredients one by one, and this situation had never occurred before. Luna's body became a little stiff, and she couldn't help but look up at the ceiling.

Main ingredient: a drop of deep sea tear juice.

There are many similar descriptions in potion science, and many inexperienced potion apprentices don't even know what they refer to. But Luna knows that this so-called Deep Sea Tears is a strange fruit.

She froze for a moment like a statue, then sighed.

"So you've been watching?"

She took out a tightly sealed box from her backpack and opened it. Inside was a small pile of dark blue fruits the size of cherries, with a wisp of mist surrounding the surface. One sniff of it gave her a refreshing feeling.

Luna carefully took out one, took out a short needle and pricked it gently, and a drop of juice dripped into the container.

She cleared her mind and began to refine.

......

The official wizard Collison and the vampire baron arrived at Dark Cliff.

Although it was just for show, both of them had consumed a lot of energy because of the previous battle. They rested for a while before preparing to enter.

Collison discovered something wrong in the large-scale warning magic circle outside, and with a casual grab, he lifted up a cylinder covered with alchemical patterns in the soil.

"Huh, is this how you got in? It's a pity that it didn't fool the small magic formation I set up inside."

Not far from the entrance to the ruins, there is a magic array set up by Collison alone. Different from the ones outside, the one over there is more sophisticated and hidden, and only he will receive the alarm.

"But those guys have already gone in. You'd better pray that they are not formal wizards or above. Otherwise, you will be punished by the Viscount!"

"No need for you to remind me!"

The moment the two of them entered the ruins, they appeared at the entrance.

hum!

The eyes of the nearby gargoyle puppet suddenly lit up, and the dazzling blood light was extremely terrifying. It moved in an instant, extremely agile, and at the same time a cold voice sounded:

"Alien invasion discovered! Drive them away immediately!"

"What's going on? Didn't you say there wouldn't be any trouble if we didn't go too deep?"

"Damn it, there wasn't any before—"

Collison's face changed drastically, and he condensed a shield made of solid ice in front of him, completely blocking the front. But in an instant, the shield was torn apart by the gargoyle sculpture, and in the air full of ice crystal debris, the puppet rushed towards him at a terrifying speed!

Bang!

A black shadow flashed before his eyes, and the old wizard was ripped away by a claw, hitting the ground nearby heavily, leaving a huge dent.

"Come and help me!"

"Shut up! Figure it out yourself!"

Only then did he realize that the vampire baron was also being besieged, and even attacked by two large puppets at the same time, tearing several scars on the vampire's body in an instant.

The wounds on the blood baron's body were healing rapidly. His bat wings and fangs were exposed. He no longer looked like a human noble. His hair was disheveled and he looked particularly ferocious.

"Dare to offend the great descendant of the Morandi family! Go to hell!"

A large circle of black mist erupted from the blood clan with red eyes, and two huge black claws appeared, grabbing the two gargoyles. At the same time, his body became vaguely blurred, as if it had merged into the black mist.

Collison had no time to care about anything else and began to use various witchcraft to attack.

I don’t know if it was lucky or not, but only three of the gargoyles at the entrance were moving, and the rest were motionless, like real statues.

"Delay! They definitely don't have enough energy!"

After being hunted by the puppets and hiding everywhere for a while, the three-headed gargoyles gradually stopped moving and turned into motionless stone sculptures.

Apart from a few scratches, there is no major damage to it.

"Ha ha......"

The blood clan baron's face turned pale:

"I have never been humiliated like this before! Just two dead things..."

"Be respectful in front of higher-level beings, even if they are just relics left behind tens of thousands of years ago."

Collison was much calmer. He brushed off the dust on his body and squinted his eyes to look forward:

"Do you dare to keep going?"

......

Luna finally completed the refining of the blue water. After she put it into the witch formation, she received a qualified evaluation.

But this time, the bottle of potion did not disappear, but remained where it was.

She looked at it thoughtfully, walked over, reached out to pick it up, then tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp.

“It tastes pretty good.”

80. Molotov Cole

Azure Water Potion, an apprentice-level potion for increasing mental strength.

In the narrow room, the silver-haired girl looked at the potion she had made. Her slender fingers covered with black silk held the glass tube and shook it gently.

She lifted her hood to reveal her pretty face, put the glass tube to her cherry-colored lips, then tilted her head back slightly and drank it all in one gulp.

"It feels good."

A warm feeling like a stream of water permeates my body, and my mind seems to sink into a soft bed, feeling a relaxed trance.

Luna felt that the fatigue from refining the potion was swept away. At the same time, her mental strength was rising steadily, growing rapidly and reaching the peak of a mid-level apprentice.

This potion is equivalent to three months of normal hard meditation.

"what......"

She sighed softly, feeling the difference between her mental strength after it was enhanced and before.

"In this way, I can try to break through the bottleneck of high-level apprentices later."

However, she didn't have the free time right now, so she looked at the desk, waiting for the next test to come.

But there was no movement for a long time. Just when Luna was feeling a little nervous, the cold voice sounded again:

"The apprentice has passed all assessments, and his talent in alchemy is rated: Excellent."

"Reward: one set of apprentice-level mental stabilization potion."

With a flash of light, a bottle of dark green medicine appeared on the table, with instructions attached:

[Moye Primary Potion: Stabilizes and purifies the spiritual power of wizard apprentices. After the apprentices greatly improve their spiritual power in a short period of time or break through bottlenecks, it can be used to quickly stabilize their spiritual power and eliminate hidden dangers.]

"this......"

In the Dark Ring, Luna had never heard of this kind of thing. But just by looking at the description, she knew that this thing was quite precious and was used in conjunction with the Spiritual Power Growth Potion.

The key point is of course the sentence 'After breaking through the bottleneck, you can quickly stabilize your mental state and eliminate hidden dangers'. Needless to say, this is the main purpose of Dole coming to this relic.

Although Luna had just drunk a potion to increase her mental power, this was her first time using such a potion. It was far from the point where the rapid growth of her mental power would cause instability and create hidden dangers.

"This is the rapid stabilization state after breaking through the bottleneck of high-level apprentices."

Luna put it away and continued to wait.

"According to Article 11 of the Code of Conduct for New Members of the Wraith Cult, wizard apprentices will officially become members of the cult after signing the third contract. This contract requires..."

The cold voice suddenly stopped.

As Luna was nervously waiting for the final judgment, she felt dizzy again. The scenery around her became blurred, and she was no longer in the original small room.

She appeared in a large and magnificent hall. There was a throne in the center of the front, as if the emperor was overlooking the entire hall, but at this moment there was nothing above the seat.

Next to the throne, there was a dark figure, like a servant or butler, waiting beside his master to obey his orders.

The dark figure had no face, and was made up of flowing enriched elements. It seemed to cast its gaze towards Luna, bringing her a natural and huge pressure.

"According to the regulations, wizard apprentices who have completed all trials will be able to meet their master directly. The master's mood will determine whether they can become his personal apprentice."

Its voice was exactly the same as the cold voice I heard just now, but then it changed a little, as if it had a hint of emotion:

"But unfortunately, the master has been dead for a long time. You have no chance to become a disciple of a great high-level wizard, the Master of Potions."

Luna quickly guessed the other party's identity, and she tried to ask in a humble tone:

"Are you... Lord Ta Ling?"

"Yes, I am the tower spirit of this wizard tower. After the master and his disciples, and all the creatures in this miniature secret realm died, I was the only one left. I have been waiting here for 37,822 years."

The tower spirit who had lived for a long time then began to introduce himself:

"My master, Moloti Cole, is from the Soul Sect of the Dark Night Continent, a human wizard force that believes in the Lord of the Styx. But my master has shown a different kind of outstanding talent since he was a child. He first showed his talent in..."

"Contrary to what many outsiders have said, it was only after he became a formal wizard that the master first came into contact with potion-making. He developed it on his own..."

"...After killing the Earl's blood clan, the master gained the power to create a branch on his own..."

The tower spirit is like a nagging old man who misses the past very much, constantly recalling the past. Although it omits most of it, the life of a high-level wizard is obviously very long and full of experience.

Luna didn't dare interrupt. In fact, just listening to these stories could provide a lot of valuable information.

"Most wizards in the sect worship the Lord of the Styx, but the master has different ideas. He believes that this goes against the wizard's original intention of questioning everything and rationally exploring the mysteries of all things. The ancient wizards even dared to study the ancient gods! Later, due to factional struggles, he left the headquarters and chose to come to the Dusk Continent..."

"He brought a drop of Styx Water and suppressed it in this secret place. The master did not deny the power of the Lord of the Styx. He believed that his legendary path lies in analyzing this drop of Styx Water."

"In fact, at that time, the master had already become a quasi-legendary wizard. He was young and talented, and his potion skills were not inferior to those of famous masters. Even in this Dusk Continent, he was able to gain a foothold smoothly."

But this powerful wizard eventually died, and along with him all the living things in the entire secret realm, the answer is actually very obvious.

"Is it because of that drop of Styx water?"

"Yes."

The tower spirit nodded, and its tone was also a little sad.

"Perhaps the master's research was too blasphemous. One day, the water of the Styx burst out with great majesty and broke through the defenses set up by the master. The terrible torrent submerged the entire secret realm."

"Its ability to corrode inorganic matter is not high, but it is destructive to all living things. At that time, all the wizards who were still in the secret realm died, and even the master was entangled by the extremely powerful Styx curse."

"The master was getting older day by day. He tried everything to find a way to lift the curse. In the end, he placed his hope on some ancient potion, but unfortunately, he failed to make it."
