Chapter 373: Clues to Magic Potions

Luoning arrived at Lulansi's study.

At this moment, the two old gentlemen were discussing some topic, and it was quite heated.

"Luoning has questions he wants to consult you about. Tell him whatever you know; don't hold anything back. You must provide proper guidance to my grandson."

Milosilafu nodded with a smile, "You can rest assured about that. I wouldn't hold back from your precious grandson for anyone."

He looked Luoning up and down.

The last time he had met the other party in private, the other party had asked him to search for Light Attribute Magic capable of curing the Soul Devouring Surge. He hadn't expected that while he hadn't found the magic, Lulansi had already recovered.

He couldn't help but suspect whether curing Lulansi had something to do with the young man before him.

"During this period, all the talk in the Wushan Extraordinary Academy has been about you."

Milosilafu said with a smile: "Martial Arts Tournament champion, Flame Knight, killing pirates, and so on—many of them even treat you as a target to chase or even praise you like an idol!"

Luoning rubbed his nose; with the fermentation of events in the Wangdu, his fame was indeed becoming increasingly bright.

It was estimated that after this spread, more people would come to the Wubei Territory to pledge their loyalty to him.

"These are all empty names; everyone has exaggerated too much," Luoning said modestly.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then Luoning slowly brought up his question—the magic herbs for making Magic Potions.

He took out the magic herb atlas drawn by Aierlong. It clearly recorded the introductory text for each medicinal herb, along with illustrations; an average person could find them after looking.

Milosilafu took it curiously and began to flip through it carefully.

There were ordinary magic herbs in it, some that were relatively rare, and even a few he had never heard of.

He couldn't help but look at Luoning suspiciously. Where did this kid get this atlas?

Associating it with the fact that the other party had been to Jinyu City and received a reward from His Majesty the King, could this atlas have come from the royal family?

Thinking about it this way, it was really possible; after all, the royal library had all kinds of books.

It was just that why would His Majesty the King give Luoning this kind of atlas? Could the latter even make Magic Potions?

This kind of highly professional thing wasn't something just any Magician could make.

Putting away his thoughts, Milosilafu asked: "Which magic herbs do you want to know about?"

Luoning flipped open two pages, "I don't know if you are aware of Fury Flame Grass and Dream Dew Flower. My attendant consulted the Silva Magic Energy Chamber of Commerce in Muma City, and they didn't have these two magic herbs there."

"Fury Flame Grass is a material for making 'Fury Potion.' This potion can make a Knight's Battle Qi surge and their aura irritable, while simultaneously lowering their sensitivity to pain and impact, which can improve a person's combat effectiveness to a certain extent."

Milosilafu introduced: "As for the Dream Dew Flower, it has the effect of calming the mind and soothing the spirit. In the Magic Potions I have made for your grandfather over these years, this has been added."

Luoning's eyes lit up; the other party was actually so knowledgeable.

"Do you have these two materials on your side?"

The materials needed for the Auxiliary Enhancement Potion were four types: Fury Flame Grass, Dream Dew Flower, Magic Crystal Dust, and Pure Water Essence.

Magic Crystal Dust could be made by purchasing Magic Crystals, and Pure Water Essence could be left to Jennie; the most critical ones were the first two.

Milosilafu nodded: "I do. These things are generally only used by those above the rank of Chief Mage, so the Chamber of Commerce in Muma City didn't procure them. If you need them, you can go to Wushan Town to buy them."

He added: "However, these things are not cheap. A single Dream Dew Flower is 200 gold coins, and a single Fury Flame Grass is as high as 400 gold!"

Hiss!

Luoning gasped, "Just two herbs, and they sell for so much?"

Milosilafu laughed, "Magic Potions are all like this. Moreover, this Fury Flame Grass is produced in the deserts of the Jistana Duchy, and the Dream Dew Flower is produced on islands. Collecting and transporting them is very laborious, so naturally, they are expensive."

Luoning sighed; he didn't know how many Fury Flame Grasses and Dream Dew Flowers were consumed for one bottle of Auxiliary Enhancement Potion. If it were too many, he wouldn't be able to afford the price.

"After things here are settled, I will have people go over to purchase them."

As he said this, he continued to flip through the atlas, pointing to other magic herbs and asking: "Dean, do you have any clues about this Star Shine Grass and the spring water of the Magic Spirit Spring?"

Milosilafu frowned slightly, carefully searching his mind for information on these two magic herbs, but after Along while, he still shook his head.

"I'm not clear about this, but looking at your description, the Magic Spirit Spring is easily found in Magic Crystal ore veins, and the Kingdom's largest Magic Crystal ore vein is in the Zishuijing Count Territory."

As he spoke, he handed the atlas back to Luoning.

"Regarding the deepest attainments in magic and the deepest attainments in Magic Potions in the Kingdom, if Mr. Beiluola says he is second, no one dares to say they are first. So if you really want them, I suggest you go to the headquarters of the Silva Magic Energy Chamber of Commerce in the Zishuijing Count Territory."

Luoning nodded.

At the Martial Arts Tournament in Jinyu City, he had met Beiluola the Magus's great-grandson, Franz Silva, and the other party had once invited him to visit the Zishuijing Territory.

It looked like it was time for him to make a trip.

Furthermore, besides collecting clues for these materials, he could also go see if there were any higher-level magic books there.

He was already a Great Archmage and would become a Magus in the near future, but his wind and fire dual-attribute magic books had been cut off.

"What kind of Magic Potion are you trying to make?"

Milosilafu asked curiously: "If you need guidance and help, you can come find me."

As a Magician who had been immersed in Magic Potion making for many years, Milosilafu was very interested in magic herbs and Magic Potions.

Therefore, even though he and Lulansi were close friends, he still memorized all the magic herbs mentioned in Luoning's atlas in his mind, determined to study them thoroughly after returning to his laboratory.

However, knowing the materials was not enough for making Magic Potions.

It also involved the processing of magic herbs, dosage, combinations, as well as techniques during the refining process, Magic Power input, and many other detailed issues. Even the slightest deviation would lead to the failure of the final Magic Potion.

This was like an apple; some people eat it directly, some make it into applesauce, some make it into dried apples, and others make it into juice.

If Luoning had the secret recipe for making Magic Potions in his hands, he would be even more interested.

Luoning chuckled.

The Awakening Potion didn't matter, because making it required pure Light Attribute Magic Power, and the requirement for a Magician was at least the Magus Level, making it very difficult for others to replicate.

But the Auxiliary Enhancement Potion did not have such strict requirements for the Magician's level; generally, Advanced was enough, so this needed to be kept secret.

Therefore, he did not answer the other party's first question, but instead said with a smile: "If there is a need, I will definitely seek your help."

Milosilafu couldn't help but look at Lulansi and laughingly scolded: "Your grandson, his mouth is quite tight."

Lulansi laughed, "What, you're already at this age, and you still want to steal the secret recipe for Magic Potions from Luoning?"

"Pah! Can a pharmacist's business be called stealing? This is guidance, cooperative research, understand?"

Lulansi's white beard twitched, "Doesn't seem to be any difference, does it?"

Milosilafu laughed and scolded, "I see you've recovered from your illness and think you're capable again. Come on, let's find a time for the two of us to go out and spar!"

"That's exactly the sentence I was waiting for!"

Lulansi's eyes were brimming with fighting spirit, "I really want to see if you, a fellow who has spent years bragging about how powerful you are, have actually made any progress all these years?"

"You name the time, I'm ready whenever."

"Then three months from now, wait for me to recover first."

Luoning couldn't help but smile; it was truly rare for these two old men, nearly eighty years old, to still have that 'if you're not convinced, let's fight' attitude of young people.

"Grandfather and Dean, remember to notify me before you fight."

A Meteor Knight versus a Great Archmage—this level of battle is not something one can see just by wanting to.

He also really wanted to see just how strong an Earth Attribute Great Archmage's power truly was.

"No problem, I'll have your grandfather notify you when the time comes."

Milosilafu seemed very confident in his own strength, "Lulansi, you must recover well. Don't lose in front of your grandson and then blame me for not giving you face."

Lulansi stroked his beard as if he were certain of victory; in three months, he might even become a Silver Moon Knight.

"Rest assured, I won't lose!" (End of chapter)
