Wizard: I can predict the future

Dylan didn't pay much attention to Nord's explanation.

He simply waved his hand and said calmly:

"You don't need to explain to me."

"On the path of a wizard, one will always encounter all sorts of difficulties."

"Why worry too much about the method if the goal can be achieved?"

At this point, Dylan glanced at Nord.

"As long as you can find a path that suits you, then that is the right way for you."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the potion-making area.

"Come in together."

Nord was slightly taken aback, then quickly followed.

Inside the potion-making area, more than ten stone workbenches are neatly arranged, with crucibles, glasswares, and silver tubing scattered around.

Tubes extended from the edge of the vessel, some connecting to sophisticated instruments that Nord had never seen before, while others meandered all the way into a transparent container as tall as a person.

The containers were filled with liquids of various colors, and magical creatures were immersed in the liquids.

The walls were engraved with runes for constant temperature and purification, and there was no odor in the air.

Dylan stood in front of a crucible and turned to look at Nord.

"You should understand why I asked you to help out at the alchemy workshop."

Nord nodded.

"Professor Dylan, I understand."

Dylan glanced at him, then looked back at the crucible.

After a moment, he slowly spoke:

"I've always admired people like you."

"Although he didn't come from a good background, he has some talent and is willing to work hard."

"But on the path of a wizard, hard work alone is not enough; what is more important is learning to think."

"Don't just follow in the footsteps of those who came before you."

"You need to understand why you have to do this."

At this point, Dylan paused slightly, as if he had remembered something.

"Over the years, I have helped many students."

"But only ten people can become formal wizards, and of those, I have taken only three as my students."

After saying that, he turned to look at Carl and Leona.

The two men straightened up slightly, clearly understanding the warning in Dylan's words.

"Therefore, you are far from having the right to slack off."

Carl and Leanna responded in hushed tones:

"Yes, Professor."

Dylan then turned his gaze to Nord.

"I'll give you a recipe for the Moonlit Echo Potion later. It only contains the ingredients for the potion, not the proportions."

"Your task is to derive the correct formula within a month. As for the materials, you don't need to worry about them."

"Do you understand?"

Upon hearing this name, Nord's heart stirred slightly.

Moon Sleep Echo Medicine.

This is a level 3, zero-ring mental potion. Its main function is to relieve mental fatigue and, to some extent, assist in meditation.

For wizarding apprentices who have just constructed their mental power model, this is a fairly practical potion.

"Understood, Professor."

Dylan looked at Nord and explained calmly:

"You don't need to feel too much pressure. Zero-ring third-tier potions don't require complicated equipment; a crucible is all you need to make them."

Nord listened to Professor Dylan's words and nodded seriously on the surface, but he did not relax in his heart.

This is Professor Dylan's test. If you take this seriously and fail the test, you may find it difficult to enter the Seventh Potions Workshop in the future.

Dylan didn't seem to notice what Nord was thinking, or rather, even if he did, he didn't care.

This is an examination that all wizard apprentices who enter the Seventh Alchemy Workshop must undergo.

"Since you are following the path of a bloodline wizard, once you are truly able to deduce the Moonsleep Echo Potion..."

"Therefore, with the help of the equipment here, we can deduce a bloodline medicine that is more suitable for you based on your own situation."

At this point, Dylan's gaze fell on Nord, and his tone became slightly more serious.

"Remember, it's a bloodline potion that suits your own."

After Dylan finished speaking, he seemed to remember something and casually added:

"Oh, right."

"Once you have enough academy points, you should exchange them for a spell."

Nord looked up.

"What kind of witchcraft?"

Dylan looked at him and said slowly:

"Secondary psionic vision".

"The making of potions has never relied solely on observation with the eyes or mental power."

"Often, the real transformation between materials happens on a magical level."

"Without corresponding observation methods, you can only guess based on experience."

"And what wizards should avoid most is relying on guesswork all the time."

"Although Lesser Psionic Vision is only a low-level auxiliary spell, it is a very important spell for experimental research."

"Only after mastering it can you truly see the flow of magic in the potion, the repulsion and fusion between materials, and the subtle signs before the potion collapses."

Nord took a deep breath and bowed solemnly.

"I understand, Professor Dylan."

He had seen this witchcraft in the library.

However, he didn't take it to heart and never thought about redeeming it.

After all, this is only a level 3, zero-ring auxiliary spell.

The above description shows the flow of magic in the environment and traces of witchcraft activation.

These can also be sensed through this spiritual power.

After Professor Dylan left.

Carl handed Nord a piece of paper.

"Here, these are the materials needed for the Moonlit Echo Potion."

Nord reached out and took the paper, looking at it.

The paper contained very little information; it did not include processing steps or a specific refining order, but merely listed the names of the materials.

Moonlight Grass, Moon Sleep Flower, Shallow Sleep Mushroom, Silver Moon Antler, Deep Sleep Flower.

He looked at the contents and understood.

Being able to provide all the material names already saves a significant amount of time.

Otherwise, developing a meditation aid from a vast array of magical plants or creatures would be something the Nords are currently incapable of accomplishing.

Carl looked at Nord, who was deep in thought, and patted him on the shoulder.

"No need to rush, that's how Leona and I got through it."

As he spoke, he adopted the air of someone who had been through it all.

"Although Professor Dylan doesn't allow us to directly help you with the derivation, giving you some advice is no problem."

"At the beginning, don't think about how the potion is made; start with the properties of the materials themselves."

"You need to observe what kind of reaction they produce first."

Nord looked at Karl, a smile appearing on his face.

"Thanks."

Carl waved his hand and didn't say anything more.

Following the list, Nord retrieved several materials for the Moon Sleep Echo Potion from the materials warehouse.

Without any pause, he began the preliminary processing.

He had practiced these steps until he was extremely familiar with them over the past month.

Seeing that Nord had already begun his experiment, Karl and Leanna did not stay by his side any longer, but returned to the potion-making area.

Before long, Nord completed the initial material processing.

The original complete magical plants and biological materials were reduced to dozens of bottles of solution and some powder.

Moongrass was extracted to produce a silvery-white solution, while Moonflower and Silver Moon Antler were ground into powder, and Shallow Sleep Mushroom was separated into two different colored mycelial solutions.

After the Sleeping Flower was processed, it turned into a dark blue sap.

Nord looked at the semi-finished materials on the workbench and let out a soft breath.

These are just the most basic tasks. Even those who are in the preparatory stage and have not yet built a mental power model can complete them by repeatedly practicing with their mental power.

The real challenge lies in how to refine these materials into a real potion.

Thinking of this, he had a sudden thought and brought up the attribute panel.

Seeing this number, Nord felt a little more at ease.

At ten o'clock, we can just conduct a simulation.

However, he did not immediately perform the deduction, but instead planned to try it himself.

After all, accumulating resources is not easy.

Moreover, he didn't want to rely on deduction every time he encountered a problem.

At the very least, we must give it a try.

It's not too late to deduce solutions when you encounter truly insurmountable problems.
