The Necromancer in the Wizarding World

Matthews was excited, as he had a new understanding of necromancy. After leaving his mentor's laboratory, he immediately went to the herbal medicine store.

The store happened to have the herbs he needed. Although they were expensive, it was undoubtedly a more efficient option than spending time looking for them. He gathered the herbs needed to make two potions without hesitation.

While purchasing medicinal herbs, he suddenly had an idea. He took out all the herbs or items that he did not need temporarily and exchanged them with the store owner, in exchange for the materials needed to make mental recovery potions and basic healing potions.

However, he did not stop there. After some negotiation, Matthews bought a large amount of potion materials in installments and promised to pay the balance in a month. In this way, he spent almost all the magic stones on him, and only a few magic wands, a precious witchcraft book and several books were left in his space pocket.

Nevertheless, through this transaction, Matthews obtained the materials needed for thirty spiritual recovery potions and fifty basic healing potions. The reason why he took the risk to stockpile so many materials was because he keenly realized that once the news of the points competition was announced, the demand for basic potions would surge and the price would also rise. Therefore, this was a great opportunity to make money by speculation.

Matthews thought, why not invite Charles to participate in this profitable plan? His power is limited after all, and through cooperation, they will be able to maximize their benefits. So, he quickly sent a message to Charles, urging him to prepare a large amount of magic stones as soon as possible.

Matthews's potion-making skills were not yet up to the level of making a graded potion, so he needed to seek help from teacher Fernando. He hurried to the potion laboratory, hoping that the teacher could quickly prepare a meditation-aiding potion so that he could assist in meditation as soon as possible, which would determine whether he could reach the level of a third-class wizard apprentice in time.

However, when he arrived at the laboratory, he found that the teacher was not there. Matthews could only wait patiently for the teacher to arrive and for Charles's reply. He didn't want to waste time, so he started making mental recovery potions and basic healing potions.

Since the number of potions that needed to be made was really huge, Matthews decided to complete it in batches: finish some of them first and do the rest later. Just as he was concentrating on preparing for the work, Brother Bolin suddenly appeared at the door of the laboratory.

Although they had had some misunderstandings, Matthews still greeted Bolin politely: "Brother Bolin, long time no see!"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Bolin's face, and he asked directly: "Where is the instructor? Why is he not in the lab?"

Matthews shrugged, saying that he didn't know where his teacher was. When the word "teacher" was mentioned, Bolin's facial muscles seemed to twitch slightly, and it was obvious that he still remembered the last incident, but he also understood the huge gap in talent between him and Matthews.

Bolin sighed deeply and said frankly, "Matthews, your talent for potions is truly amazing. I always thought I was a genius, but after seeing your strength with my own eyes, I realized how ridiculous my arrogance was."

Matthews was touched by Bolin's honesty. He did not expect Bolin to face his shortcomings so sincerely. Faced with such a situation, Matthews did not know how to respond, because any words might be misunderstood as hypocrisy or sarcasm.

In the end, he could only say simply: "Brother Bolin, you are too kind."

Matthews looked at the pile of medicinal materials on the table, and he felt anxious. He knew clearly that it would be difficult to complete the preparation of these medicines in a short time by himself. This would not only waste his precious time, but also have an adverse effect on his future plans.

So, Matthews tentatively asked Bolin: "Brother Bolin, can you help me deal with these herbs?"

When Bolin heard Matthews' request, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he still readily agreed. He took off his robe, rolled up his sleeves, and began to concentrate on processing the herbs.

With the addition of Bolin, Matthews' work efficiency has improved significantly. The two of them worked together tacitly, one was responsible for the preparation of medicinal materials, and the other focused on the preparation of medicines. The entire laboratory was filled with their busy and orderly figures.

Matthews carefully observed that some of Bolin's actions in handling the medicinal materials seemed redundant and inefficient, which not only slowed down the processing speed, but also might affect the quality of the final medicine. So, he quietly made a suggestion: "Brother Bolin, perhaps we can try to change the way we handle the medicinal materials, which may be more efficient."

At first, Bolin was skeptical about Matthews' proposal, but he still made a trial change. Practice has proved that the adjusted processing techniques not only significantly improved work efficiency, but also significantly improved the quality of medicinal extracts.

Bolin looked at Matthews, feeling both moved and admiring. He realized that Matthews not only had an outstanding talent in potion making, but also had a keen insight into the tiny problems in the making process. This made Bolin completely admire Matthews' talent and strength.

Afterwards, the two of them cooperated more tacitly, and before noon, they had completed Matthews's set goal of making potions.
