The most powerful wizard in the magic world

Gerlin sat opposite him, with a little sweat on his forehead, but his thoughts were unusually clear. He could feel the scent of the Void Flower still lingering between them, as if reminding him of that dangerous journey.

"Are you sure you have used up all the Void Flowers? This is an extremely scarce material." There was a hint of doubt in Gofat's voice, and his eyes were as sharp as a sword, piercing Gerlin's heart.

"I promise, Master. I only used it once on that ancient altar, and I never touched it again after that." Gerlin raised his head slightly, trying to make his voice sound more resolute. But he felt a little uneasy in his heart, and recalled the various visions after using the Void Flower, and his whole body trembled.

Gofat nodded slowly, not seeming very satisfied, but his eyes gradually softened. "Then what is the purpose of the potion you prepared? If you really come into contact with the Void Flower, it may cause various unstable reactions."

"I have prepared an antidote that can resist the side effects of the Void Flower." Gerlin's tone became more cautious. "I have been studying these potions during this period to ensure that they will not affect myself or others."

Gofat stared at him, as if searching for the truth in his eyes. "Gerlin, do you know how dangerous it is to face the power of the Void Flower? It can lead us to an unknown abyss, and there are some things that we can never reverse."

"I understand, mentor." Gerlin lowered his head and forced himself to face those dark memories. "But I also know that if I don't explore, those unknown forces will always lurk around me and threaten me and my companions."

"You are a brave young man," Gofat's voice softened. "But bravery does not mean recklessness. Your exploration needs to have a clear goal and direction, and cannot be based on momentary impulse."

Gerlin's uneasiness seemed to be alleviated a little. The mentor's teachings were like a warm force, slowly dispelling the haze in his heart. He remembered the trance scene he saw under the influence of the Void Flower. It was a misty and deadly world, as if tempting him to explore the unfathomable darkness.

"I want to find true power, not be swallowed by darkness." Gerlin's voice became firm. "I will be careful in my research and not let myself sink. We need these powers to fight against greater threats!"

"A greater threat?" Gofat raised his eyebrows, seeming to be surprised by what Gerlin said. "You mean... the power of the void? These powers are uncontrollable. Once out of control, there will be irreversible consequences."

Gerlin knew that his mentor's worries were not without reason. Everything in front of him seemed to be a game, and he was inadvertently playing with those dangerous pieces. His thoughts flashed back to the palpitating scenes he had seen in his dreams before, and the oppressive feeling of emptiness seemed to be calling him to explore more deeply.

"I will not let the void flow control me. On the contrary, I want to master it." There was a firm strength in Gerlin's voice. "My goal is to use these energies as much as possible, to fight against them with our knowledge and wisdom, rather than being devoured by them."

Gofat looked at him, as if he was considering something. "If you really want to explore these powers, then you must be fully prepared. You need more knowledge, more support, and reflection on your own soul."

"I will, mentor." Gerlin nodded, and a fighting spirit gradually ignited in his heart. Although the road ahead was difficult, he knew that his decision was for a greater mission. Gofat's guidance had always been as bright as a beacon, and he would not let himself get lost in the ocean of emptiness.

Suddenly, there was a noise outside the door, as if something was happening. Gofat's expression suddenly became serious, he stood up and walked to the window, looking out anxiously.

"What happened?" Gerling stood up and followed his mentor closely, feeling vaguely uneasy.

"It's not peaceful outside. I have to go find out what's going on." Gofat turned around and looked at Gerlin solemnly. "You stay here and don't act rashly."

"I can't just stay here." Garlin said uneasily, "I want to know what happened, too!"

"There's no time to argue!" Gofat said firmly, "I know what you want, but you can't act rashly before you fully understand the situation. Listen to me and stay here until I come back."

Gerling looked at his mentor's back, feeling somewhat helpless, but he knew that this was not the time to argue. He gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down. Although Gofat was mature and prudent, he still had to obey his arrangements at such a special moment.

Before leaving, Gofat turned around and said to Gerlin seriously: "If something really happens, you must learn to protect yourself. Remember, the power of the void is invincible, but we cannot let ourselves be dominated by fear."

"I understand." Gerling forced himself to put aside the uneasiness in his heart and watched Guofat walk out of the house.

The air was gradually filled with uneasiness, and Gerling's heartbeat accelerated. He paced in the room, but his thoughts gradually flew. He knew that he was about to face an unknown challenge, and this lurking danger made him at a loss, but he also understood that all this was the path he had chosen. No matter what he was about to face, he would never back down.

"The power of the Void Flower, what secrets does it hide?" Gerlin muttered to himself, even confused himself, but the desire to pursue the truth in his heart became stronger. He couldn't help but think that perhaps this was the starting point of his pursuit of power, and he had to find the key to crack it all.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and then, Gofat's voice came through the crack in the door: "Gerlin, come and help me!"

Gerling was shocked and immediately rushed to the door and opened it. Gofat's face was pale, with beads of sweat on his forehead, and he had obviously experienced a fierce conflict.

"There's an attack outside, we must act immediately!" Gofat said in a deep voice, with an urgent light flashing in his eyes, "There are enemies looking for the trace of the Void Flower, the situation is very dangerous!"

"Enemy? Who are they?" Gerlin's heart suddenly shook, and many speculations flashed through his mind.

"It's not clear yet, but judging from their whereabouts, they are probably some cultists related to the Void." Gofat said solemnly, "We must stop them, otherwise this will become an even bigger disaster."
