The Necromancer in the Wizarding World

Time waits for no one, and Matthews clearly realizes the urgency of improving his mental strength, which is the key to whether he can complete the outline of all the runes of "Death Wing". He is quite confident in his rune-drawing skills, but the cornerstone of all this is built on a strong mental power.

In order to enhance his spiritual power, Matthews urgently needed the help of his teacher to prepare a meditation-aiding potion. However, when he walked into the potion laboratory again, he was disappointed to find that the laboratory was still empty.

Since he couldn't find his teacher for the time being, Matthews decided to use the waiting time to start practicing drawing the meditation method's supplementary will runes. He had decided that if he still couldn't see his teacher tomorrow, he would send a message to the teacher through his identity badge to ask.

However, the next morning, before Matthews had time to send a message to the teacher, he unexpectedly received a sudden message.

The identity badge on his waist suddenly flashed continuously, which was a signal of important news. He immediately used his mental power to check the identity badge, which was a puzzling task reminder: "The task of making medicine has been successfully received."

Matthews frowned, his face full of confusion. He had never taken the initiative to go to the mission hall to accept a mission, not to mention that he had not been in the Eternal Night Cavern Sea for two years, and according to the regulations, he should not receive mandatory mission arrangements. So where did this mysterious mission prompt come from? He was full of doubts and uneasiness.

Just as Matthews was lost in thought, trying to sort out his thoughts, his identity badge flashed again. This time, it was a message from teacher Fernando: "Come to the academy's pharmacy hall as soon as possible."

Matthews immediately came back to his senses from his deep thoughts. He knew that the teacher's call could not be delayed. He quickly packed his belongings and rushed to the academy's pharmacy hall as quickly as possible.

Along the way, Matthews' mind kept echoing with the strange mission reminder and the teacher's urgent summons. Undoubtedly, there must be some connection between the two.

When he arrived at the pharmacy hall, he found that teacher Fernando had been waiting there for a long time. He greeted the teacher respectfully: "Hello, teacher! What can I do for you?"

Fernando nodded and replied, "The academy has a batch of basic potions that need to be made. Considering your ability and schedule, I will help you take on this task. You will be responsible for preparing the potions later, and the processing of the medicinal materials will be done by others."

Although Matthews felt somewhat helpless, he knew that once he accepted the task, he would have to go all out. He knew that the academy would need a huge amount of potions, which would take up a lot of his time and energy, and his most urgent task now was to improve his mental strength so that he could reach the standard of a third-class wizard apprentice as soon as possible.

However, the task had already been accepted, and he could only choose to obey. But he had to ask the teacher to help him make a meditation-aiding potion as soon as possible. This matter could not be delayed any longer, and time was running out.

He made a request to Teacher Fernando: "Teacher, I have prepared two ingredients for meditation-aiding potions. Can you help me make them?"

Master Fernando readily agreed to Matthews' request: "There is no need for us to be so polite. Just give me the herbs. In addition, your reward for this mission is also two meditation-aiding potions."

Matthews said gratefully: "Thank you, teacher!" He knew very well that this was what the teacher had fought for him.

Fernando patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, let's go. Everyone should be ready." He led Matthews through the potion hall and came to a spacious laboratory. There was already a formal wizard and eight apprentices waiting in the laboratory.

When Master Fernando walked into the laboratory, everyone came forward to greet him. He assigned a task to Connaught Wizard: "Connaught Wizard, this mission is handed over to you. I hope you can work with Matthews to ensure the smooth completion of the mission."

The Connaught wizard immediately responded: "Yes, Master, everything is in accordance with your will."

Before leaving, Master Fernando told Matthews: This is a rare training opportunity. Remember, the efficiency and quality of potion production are equally important.

After Fernando left, the Connaught wizard began to assign tasks. He asked Matthews to select four apprentices to help process the medicinal materials, and the remaining four would follow his command. In addition, he gave Matthews half of the materials and told him the final amount of each potion needed.

Matthews quickly calculated and found that this mission required at least a 60% success rate for the potion. Although he was very satisfied with his skills, such a requirement still made him feel very stressed.

He couldn't help but ask the Connaught wizard: "Lord Connaught, what if we don't make enough potions?"

The Connaught wizard replied calmly: "If the quantity requirement is not met, you will need to find a way to solve it yourself. Of course, if you can prepare more potions, the extra ones will also belong to you."

Matthews instantly understood the Connaught wizard's intention. He was deliberately keeping his distance to ensure that any possible consequences of failure would not implicate him. If the number of potions needed to be replenished to meet the mission requirements, the responsibility would be borne entirely by Matthews and his team of apprentices.

Although he felt bitter and helpless, Matthews knew that this was the cruel and realistic side of the wizarding world, and everyone considered their own interests first. He did not complain, but just silently accepted this fact.

The Connaught wizard said nothing more and left with his four apprentices, leaving enough space for Matthews and his men to do their work.

Matthews stood in the center of the laboratory, looking firmly at the four apprentices in front of him. "I am Master Fernando's apprentice, Matthews Albert." He introduced himself, "I think you have all heard of my name."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Lord Connaught has just made clear the mission requirements. We need to achieve a 60% success rate for the potion. This is indeed a challenge for me, but I believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to accomplish it. Do you have any good ideas or suggestions for this goal?"

The four apprentices looked embarrassed. This success rate requirement was almost the limit of what the apprentices could achieve. But one of them mustered up the courage to say, "I think if there is a problem in any link, the person responsible for that link should bear the corresponding losses."

Matthews nodded in agreement. "Great! This means that each of us must go all out to ensure that there are no mistakes in the part we are responsible for. Only in this way can we face this challenge together and successfully complete the task."

In order to improve the efficiency of task completion, Matthews decided to implement assembly line-style division of labor and cooperation. He instructed the four apprentices to choose different medicinal materials for processing according to their respective strengths, which not only maximized their professional skills but also ensured the quality of the medicinal extracts.

Under the careful management of mental power, 60% success rate of basic potions is already the limit for Matthews. But now he has enough mental recovery potions in his space pocket for him to squander, so he is confident that the success rate can be further increased to more than 60%.

In addition, Matthews also cleverly mixed the basic potion materials he had stockpiled into the medicinal materials distributed to the apprentices, which would undoubtedly save him the time of making them individually.
