Wizard Earl

Chapter 338 Another Role

Hearing that Connor had apologized for what happened last time, old Victor's eyes showed a hint of surprise. He seemed not to have expected Connor to do this at all. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded as if to indicate that he accepted Connor's apology, and then squeezed out a "I'm leaving." After saying that, his hunched figure disappeared into Connor's apartment as if it were transparent.

Seeing Old Victor's bizarre departure, Connor's understanding of Old Victor's strength increased by another three points. After a full ten minutes, Connor used his mental power to carefully check his apartment, confirming that Old Victor had indeed left his home. Only then did Connor feel at ease and take out the azure blue potion called "Spring of the Spirit" from his spatial ring.

As Connor sensed the abundant spiritual vitality within the "Spring of the Spirit" potion, a cold smile appeared on his lips.

Old Victor said that this bottle of "Spring of the Spirit" could increase his chances of breaking through to the Advanced Wizard Apprentice level by 30%. Connor believed it 90 percent of the time, but he didn't believe it 1,000 percent of the time. This bottle of "Spring of the Spirit" only had one effect: helping him become an Advanced Wizard Apprentice! As for the other effects, if someone wanted to tell him, they would tell him even if he didn't ask. If they didn't want to tell him, they wouldn't tell him even if he asked.

No matter what kind of tricks old Victor or the secret society are up to, I must first mislead them so that they think I am unaware of the dangers of the "Mental Spring" drug, thus making them complacent. Only in this way can I better protect myself. Compared to my own safety, what does it matter if I apologize to that old Victor?

"Auxiliary chip, scan this bottle of Spiritual Spring and, using the database, determine all its effects!" Connor commanded the auxiliary chip in his mind.

"Beep! In accordance with the subject's will, task creation and scanning have begun... Scan complete... Combining with the database to find matching data... Task complete. The auxiliary chip can only determine that the Spiritual Spring Potion can help the subject break through to a higher level of life. Other effects cannot be determined due to insufficient relevant data in the database!"

"Can't draw a conclusion?" Connor nodded secretly. He wasn't surprised by the result from the auxiliary chip. Because he was an alchemist, most of the data he had obtained was alchemy data. Apart from some basic common sense, he had virtually no knowledge of potion-making. In addition, the data in the database was largely obtained from his mentor Reyes. If Reyes didn't want him to see certain data, he basically wouldn't be able to see it. So, this situation was not incomprehensible.

"What are the chances that this Spirit Spring Potion, besides helping me break through to a higher level of life, has other uses besides being an auxiliary chip?" Although he already had a definite answer to this question in his mind, Connor still wanted to get confirmation from the auxiliary chip.

"Beep! Based on the database, there is an 81% chance that the Spirit Spring Potion has other effects!" The same cool female voice rang in Connor's mind.

Connor's expression remained unchanged after receiving confirmation. The confirmation from the auxiliary chip merely dispelled any remaining illusions he might have had. His eyes were fixed intently on the potion in his hand. Connor was genuinely curious about its effects, and the most reliable way to determine the composition and function of a potion was to consult a professional, preferably the potion's creator…

Connor had originally planned to wait quietly for Varga to refine the "Arcane Potion" so that he could break through to the Advanced Wizard Apprentice level with peace of mind. However, it now seemed that he might need to meet with Varga face-to-face to understand the situation regarding this "Spring of Spirituality".

"Connor, what brings you here?" Varga, dressed in a dark red robe, looked at Connor in the quiet room of the safe house and asked with some confusion:

Yesterday she received a letter from Connor. In it, Connor only mentioned that he had obtained Black Rock Grass and asked her to come to the safe house to pick it up, but he didn't say that Connor himself was also coming to the safe house.

Upon hearing Varga's question, Connor shook his head and said to Varga with some complicated feelings, "Varga, you really guessed right..." After saying that, Connor took out the bottle of azure "Mental Spring" potion from his spatial ring and threw it to Varga.

The potion traced a graceful arc in the air before landing precisely in Varga's hand. Varga picked it up, examined it carefully, nodded solemnly to Connor, and said earnestly, "This is correct. It's the Spiritual Spring I spent months crafting. Did the Secret Society tell you about the effects of this potion?"

Connor held up three fingers and said to Varga, "It increases my chances of breaking through to become a high-level wizard apprentice by 30%. It didn't tell me anything else, but I'm sure this bottle of Spiritual Spring has other uses besides helping me break through!"

Seeing that Connor was so certain that "Spring of the Spirit" had other uses, Varga didn't ask Connor why he was so sure. After a moment of contemplation, she began to explain to Connor in detail: "This potion wasn't originally meant for me to make. It was something the secret society gave to Professor Gulsi to make, but Professor Gulsi has been busy with other things lately, so he gave this task to me..."

"Wait!" Connor seemed to realize something and interrupted Varga before she could finish speaking, saying, "Varga, do you mean that this bottle of Spiritual Spring potion wasn't originally a task directly assigned to you by the Secret Society?"

Faced with Connor's question, Varga nodded slightly and explained, "Yes! Gulsi has been busy with other important matters lately and hasn't had time to concoct potions at all. Plus, my potion-making skills have improved! Now, I'm the one doing all the potion-making tasks. Gulsi just hands over the tasks assigned by the Society to me without even looking at them. She probably doesn't even know that the Society wants her to concoct the Spirit Spring!"

"By the way, Connor, I have a copy of the instructions the Secret Society gave to the hospital to refine the Spiritual Spring in my spatial ring. Do you want to see it?" As she finished speaking, Varga seemed to remember something, took out a piece of paper from her spatial ring, and handed it to Connor.
