potion master

Puke stopped laughing and said awkwardly, "Is that so..."

Hugh regretted that the iron was weak and said: "Reckless! Reckless!"

Puke was a little embarrassed by Xio's nagging, but seeing Lyle put the embarrassment behind him again: "By the way, I don't know your name yet!"

Lyle remembered that he was not in a good mood at that time, so he didn't tell Puke his name, and couldn't help but smiled: "My name is Lyle, hello."

"I won't introduce myself, you should still remember my name?" Puck asked expectantly.

Lyle nodded with a smile.

Noticing the cub grinning at him in Lyall's arms, Puke stretched out his fingers and asked in doubt: "What kind of monster is this?"

Seeing that Bai was about to bite off Puke's poking finger, Lyle calmly patted the cub's head.

Xio interjected, "Don't worry about these nosy things. You followed me the day before yesterday and disappeared. Where did you go?"

"Ah, I got lost," Puck said innocently, rubbing the back of his head. "Later, I went up a mountain, met Lyle, and saw a battle between a necromancer and a mercenary group."

"This happened to you too?!" Xio said in surprise.

"And that mercenary group turned out to be Black Snake!" Puke muttered, "I didn't expect to see them here."

"Black Snake?!" Xio's expression became serious, "Did they also come out of the 'Desolate City'..."

Lyle was a little puzzled, and couldn't help asking: "Didn't you say that there are only necromancers in the 'Desolate City'?"

"No," Xio shook his head, and said, "'Desolate City' is the legendary passage between the world and the undead world, and necromancers are things that are both humans and ghosts. Come out from the exit and wander around the 'Desolate City'. But there are not only necromancers there."

"'Abandoned City' is a place abandoned by people, and some vagrants and wanted criminals can only gather there because they have nowhere to go, and abandoned babies and the like are all abandoned in that place. place," Puke said, "The Black Snake is the kind of mercenary group composed of messy people. In fact, the mercenary group itself is a collection of some messy people, but the difference between the Black Snake is that the "Desolate City ’ That’s where they belong.”

Lyle thought of the boy who bought a lot of potions from him twice.

He is also a member of Black Snake?

Is he a wanted criminal who committed a heinous crime, or was he abandoned in that kind of place since he was a child?

But that boy was obviously very cheerful, and Lyle couldn't imagine that he grew up in that environment.

Hugh muttered: "Don't say they are pitiful, haven't they done enough bad things?"

"I'm just surprised," Puke said sarcastically, "I've only seen the wanted head portraits of their leader before, but I didn't expect to see them with my own eyes."

"They came out of the 'Desolate City', which means that the 'Desolate City' has already gathered many necromancers." Xio murmured.

"Is it serious already, teacher?" Puke restrained his joking look.

Xio nodded and remained silent.

Lyle looked at the serious expressions of the two, and said, "Hugh, I thought about it yesterday, if—"

Xio raised his hand to interrupt him, signaling him not to continue.

Puke glanced at Lyle thoughtfully, but did not ask his doubts, and instead said, "Teacher, what are your plans? Are you going back to the main city?"

"I have something to do here temporarily, so I can't go back," Xio said after a pause, "but you have to go back."

"Me?" Puke was stunned, "I'm alone?"

Hugh nodded.

"I—" Puck yelled exaggeratedly, "You know I'm blind, I've never been to the main city before, I'll get lost, teacher!"

Xio frowned and said, "Then do you need someone to accompany you wherever you go in the future? In this way, you can become an excellent magician?"

Pook choked.

"I'll give you a map, and you can find it by yourself. And aren't you very sensitive to magic power?" Xio sneered, "You can find me here in Saiyan City through the remaining magic power I left behind. You can also follow the magic traces I left all the way back to the main city."

Pook's face turned purple.

Xio waved his hand and said lightly, "That's it."

Puke lost his face: "Teacher..."

"Don't be coy!" Xio said sternly, "This is not a trivial matter. If I didn't have other things here, wouldn't I want to go back to the city to report the situation myself?!"

Knowing that he is the "other thing", Lyle stood silently by the side, following Bai's hair.

Puck shut up, shoulders slumped.

Hugh said: "Take my wand and go back to the city. After entering the palace, you must go to His Majesty Messo in person and report the situation to him. Tell him that the black snakes have come out of their lair, and the necromancers must have gathered there Get up," said Xio after a pause, "and remind him to pay attention to the movement in the main city."

Puke was stunned when he heard the last sentence.

Because the situation was urgent, Puck packed up his things that night and left hesitantly.

After he left, Lyle asked, "Why didn't you tell him who I am?"

"Because your injury is a bit strange," Xio said with a frown. "Although I am here to persuade you to restore your memory, I will not tell other people about it. Puke is a student I brought out from a small frontier town. , so he doesn't know you."

Lyle was silent.

"I know what you are talking about today," Xio said, "but I can give you more time. I have to observe in Saiyan City for a while, and when I am about to leave, I hope you can join me Walk."

Lyle nodded helplessly.

After Puke left, Mount Loren seemed to be quiet again.

Xio often went up the mountain and wandered around the city, but he never encountered anything special.

Lyle also temporarily put the matter of restoring his memory behind him.He had already made a decision, and since he had to face it, when Xio was planning to leave, he had no room to back down.And now that Hugh gave him time, he would continue to focus on potions.

Harley taught him how to make two intermediate fire potions.

After learning how to make those two potions, Lyle realized how simple the bottle of "Vulcan" he made back then.A slightly more complicated intermediate potion needs more than ten kinds of magic materials, and one or two can't even be found on Luolian Mountain. They need to go to the magic shop in the city to find materials.

And it takes a whole day to process the magic materials alone, not to mention spending a whole morning concentrating on configuring the potions the next day.

Lyle will be very tired when studying, because his magic power still hasn't improved, and it is always exhausted in a while.

Hugh looked very surprised by his situation.

"You close your eyes."

Lyle was called out of the house by him, and the two sat under a tree, with Bai squatting at his feet, leaning on him intimately.

"Your mana should be like this because of soul magic," Xio said slowly in an old voice, "Maybe you don't remember, soul magic is a very evil magic, it will make your The body is damaged, which is why you lose almost all of your magic power, and it also affects your spirit, so you can't remember the past."

Lyle frowned and said, "Is it still in my body?"

"Yes, although the wound on your back has healed on the surface, in fact, the magic power of the necromancer has remained in your body. If you don't guide it out, you will never recover."

After a pause, Lyle asked, "How to guide?"

Xio was silent for a few seconds, and said: "Although soul magic is forbidden, the royal family will still secretly train a group of soul magicians to use at critical times. They can use the same soul magic to heal your wounds."

A gust of wind blows.

Xio said, "Leave these things alone. Close your eyes and feel the surrounding elements."

Lyle closed his eyes, focused, and felt his surroundings.

It rained just now, so there are many water elements in the air.

The water droplets remained on the leaves, and a gust of wind blew by, the leaves trembled twice, and the water droplets fell down along the leaves and landed on the tip of his nose.

Xio guided him: "Feel under your feet, behind you."

Lyle turned his attention to his feet.

Loose and soft, it's soil.

There are many water elements mixed in the soil.

"Try to separate the water element from the surrounding elements."

Lyle frowned slightly, trying to feel the fluctuations of the earth element.

Wrapped densely by the water element, the earth element appears to be quiet, motionless, almost without any activity.

Lyle tried to feel it more deeply, but he could hardly feel any elemental power.

The land was trampled under his feet obediently, without any vitality.Lyle had the illusion of looking for gaps in the stone, but it was actually more difficult to feel the fluctuations of the earth element force.For a moment, he was at a loss, not knowing what he was looking for.

"Take your time. The earth and wood elements are different from the other three elemental forces. They are the most difficult to capture. You need to be patient."

Feeling Bai licking his feet non-stop, Lyall calmed down.

The water element is in the air and jumping on the ground, appearing very lively.The earth element is a quieter element, so only by pulling out all the influence of the water element can we concentrate on feeling it.

Lyle started to separate all the water elements on the ground.

Seeing a ball of transparent water slowly float into the air, Xio showed a surprised expression.

Lyle continued to feel patiently, and when it was so long that he almost forgot the time, he finally caught a trace of fluctuation.

Sensing the change of expression on Lyle's face, Xio said quickly: "Grab it!"

Lyle held his breath slightly, waved his hand lightly, and a pillar rose straight from the ground!

Lyle opened his eyes, looking in surprise at the pillar of dirt in front of him.

Xio said with relief: "I also used this method to guide all your elemental power back then. You don't know how surprised I was at that time. I just guessed that you would have many kinds of magic power, but I didn't expect you to actually do all of them. arrive!"

Bai raised his head and sniffed at the pillar, turning around it, looking puzzled.

Lyle was also a little excited, and couldn't help closing his eyes again to feel the wood element.

Behind him is a big tree, and abundant wood elements gather behind him.

Lyle used the same method to separate the wood element and the water element, and it took a long time to capture the fluctuation of the wood element, and in an instant a long branch was drawn from the tree!

"You did it!" Hugh shouted happily, "You did it, my child! You are still so good!"

Lyle looked at the branch in his hand in surprise and could hardly speak.

He actually guided all five elemental forces out!

"I know you can do it!" Xio held his shoulders and said with a complicated expression, "Lyle, as long as you want to do it, there is nothing you can't do, so you must believe that you can resist at any time." past."

Lyle knew what he was talking about, nodded and said with a smile: "I know."

"Do you still remember what Harley said?" Xio encouraged, "Now that you have five elemental powers, you can try to add wood elemental powers to fire potions!"

Lyle excitedly said: "Yes, I almost forgot!" He turned around and ran into the house, shouting as he ran, "I'm going back to the house first, thank you teacher!"

The cub whimpered softly, and was just about to chase after its owner who had forgotten it, when it was hugged by both hands.

It grinned angrily at the old man in front of it, showing its small fangs, wanting him to put it down, and the old man spoke.

Xio called thoughtfully: "Your Highness?"
