Normally, the medicinal effects of Hibiscus Sprout are enough to push a mid-stage Tier 1 wizard to the late Tier 1 stage, and the late Tier 1 stage will be close to perfection.

However, Xia Jian's situation was different; he only managed to increase his mental strength by a little.

After closing the panel, Xia Jian couldn't help but sigh.

"It seems that having too much purity and resilience in one's mental energy isn't necessarily a good thing."

However, relatively speaking, such an improvement is enough to save more than ten days of work during the summer, and it is barely acceptable.

Based on his current strength, it's estimated that a first-tier wizard would have little chance of harming him. Although he hasn't fought against a second-tier wizard before, Xia Jian feels that he should have no problem facing an early-stage second-tier wizard.

…………

In the following period, Xia Jian entered into a long period of training, occasionally checking on the progress of the experimental subjects.

After all, biological modification is not something that can be done overnight, and short-term results do not represent everything. No one knows whether problems will arise later.

Once applied to one's own combat system, any mistake could be fatal.

What puzzled Xia Jian was that the principal and vice-principal had been away for more than a month and had not returned.

I asked other wizards, but none of them knew where the two of them had gone.

In the end, Xia Jian learned something from Bro: Frank was also not in the city!

In other words, there is currently only one fourth-tier wizard in the entire Neilbella!

If that were all, it wouldn't be a big deal for Natsumi.

Anyway, there's been no unusual activity at Black Book lately, and Westin has shown signs of improvement, so it's fine if I come back a little later.

However, after questioning Bro, Xia Jian learned that Frank did not leave voluntarily, but only went out after Mu Shuang came to him!

Even when the principal and vice-principal left, some people saw Mu Shuang come to the school.

For some reason, Xia Jian felt a vague unease, as if something big was about to happen.

After all, the timing is too coincidental. I'm afraid that half a month later, the fourth-level cultivator in the city will still be outside, and no one will know what Mu Shuang is planning to do.

laboratory.

At this moment, besides Xia Jian, there was another person wearing bone armor standing there.

Westin's condition has improved; apart from being unable to control the abnormalities in his body, he is now able to move around normally.

Furthermore, Westin's strength has improved very quickly. He is now a wizard at the peak of his apprenticeship, and he only needs one potion of advancement to become a first-tier wizard.

Although bloodline wizards do improve faster than regular wizards, Xia Jian was the first to know that it was this fast.

Moreover, Westin's bloodline remains unidentifiable, and from any perspective, it appears to be a simple bone spur.

However, Xia Jian did discover something special: Westin's genetic sequence contained some unknown energy that would unconsciously form various runes he had never seen before.

It was precisely because of those energy runes that Westin's genes underwent a mysterious mutation.

Even flesh and blood slimes possess this energy.

It is important to know that the higher the level of a creature, the more complex its physical composition, and as its strength increases, it will enter a state of "pseudo-energyization".

This is because the conventional body structure can no longer contain the enormous energy, and the body will enter a specific evolutionary mode based on the genetic information fixed by the bloodline or with the help of meditation.

The current Westin and Flesh Slime are similar to this situation.

"Are you feeling unwell?"

Xia Jian put down the blood sample extracted from Westin's body and asked casually.

"I'm in pretty good shape, but lately I've been feeling a bit bloated, and I seem to have a lot more energy than before."

Some of the scales on Westin's face had disappeared, and his overall features could be vaguely seen.

Hearing this, Xia Jian was not surprised.

"Your body is unconsciously absorbing energy, but you can't break through to the first-tier wizard level, which causes energy to stagnate in your body. You'll be fine after drinking a magic cleansing potion."

Magic cleansing potions were originally used to dispel unwanted elemental energy from certain materials, making the materials themselves purer.

If a person drinks it, their magical power will dissipate. Normal wizards are too busy improving themselves to do something that harms others and themselves.

Unfortunately, Westin's situation is special. If things continue like this, he will probably face the fate of exploding and dying.

"Then, teacher..."

Westin looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Seeing this, Xia Jian immediately knew what Westin wanted to say.

Westin wanted to advance the potion, but he also knew he was too old.

After all, breakthroughs are not guaranteed to be successful, and most factions will give advancement potions to young students.

Thinking back to Gene back then, not a single one of those geniuses managed to get the advancement potion.

The twists and turns involved are outrageous; some things can't be obtained just because you want them.

Xia Jian sighed and could only make up an excuse: "The principal isn't at school right now, let's wait until they come back."

Although Xia Jian still had the Enlightenment Pill, he had reserved it for Leia; he wasn't kind enough to give such a precious item to an ordinary student.

Of course, if possible, Natsumi wouldn't mind helping with this.

There's no other reason, as long as he's willing, but the premise is that I have extra.

Having not seen them for a while, Xia Jian really misses Leia and the others.

"Thank you, teacher."

Westin forced a smile and said sincerely.

Although he knew the chances of getting the advancement potion were slim, that didn't stop him from being grateful to Xia Jian. After all, if it weren't for Xia Jian, he might not have survived to this point.

Xia Jian smiled and said, "No need to thank me, we're just helping each other out."

If it weren't for Westin, the flesh slime might have already been destroyed by him.

Of course, this guy also seems to have gotten himself into a lot of trouble.

Because the Flesh Slime has been sickly lately, Xia Jian has even started to consider whether or not to look through the Black Book.

For some reason, Xia Jian always felt that the black book could give him the answers he wanted.

But it was precisely this invisible temptation that made him more wary of the Black Book.

The changes in Westin were vivid in my mind, especially his lack of resistance to his orders and his deliberate disregard for the problems brought about by the Black Book.

Even after more than a month, Xia Jian still couldn't find out the contents of the black book.

Moreover, Westin would crash whenever he was present and the Black Book was involved.

Conversely, Westin could use the knowledge in the Black Book on his own even when he was not present.

Unfortunately, Westin's designs all showed signs of mental interference, which meant that Natsumi could only get what he needed but couldn't figure out the underlying mechanisms.
