Wizard Immortality.

Chapter 53 The Four Ingredients for Advancement Potions | Olive Branch

There are four types of materials needed to make the upgrade potion "Eternal Brilliance".

The "Eternal Flame of Life" is a core ingredient of potions, but its source and acquisition method are unknown.

Starlight is a commonly used material in the field of astrology. It comes from many places and is mostly made by astrologers. They use crystal balls to collect and store cosmic starlight through mysterious means.

However, the material quality requirement for upgrading potions is [infinitely changing starlight].

Not only are they expensive, but they are also hard to find.

In terms of production difficulty, the two are almost identical, both being similar to the Enlightenment Potion.

【Cosmic Mayfly Concentrate】is a universal, mysterious solvent that has never been heard of being sold in Vic, Death Rift.

Although it's not exactly a rare material, there are only two ways to obtain it.

First, it involves taking risks, traversing misty mountains, and seeking opportunities in the outside world.

The second option is to find a "world trader" and purchase it from them at a considerable cost.

World traders are one of the six most mysterious professions.

Although any wizard with a talent for summoning can theoretically become a world trader, the threshold for this is far beyond what others can imagine.

Vic has an extremely poor understanding of the Summoning domain.

Even though he reached the peak of the sixth-level wizard in his previous life, his understanding of the summoning field was no different from that of an ordinary wizard apprentice.

and so.

He was unaware of the difficulties involved.

However, finding a world trader in the Death Rift Valley region is very difficult.

Vic has lived here for twenty-five years. By chance, he heard from someone else that a world trader who traveled the world once appeared in the Thorn Flower Kingdom.

This was also one of the reasons he came to the Thorn Flower Kingdom.

The final ingredient for upgrading potions, the Death Star Core, has the same effect as Corpse Flower Pigment: it can stabilize the properties of potions and improve their quality.

There is a chance to find meteor debris and impact craters.

It can be found at the bottom of Death Rift, making it the easiest of the four materials to obtain.

but.

Few alchemists use materials that are so stable.

Because it is too stable, it will increase the difficulty of concocting potions and greatly increase the probability of failure.

Vic has not yet entered the trading market.

The market managers, having already learned of the arrival of senior apprentices, set off ahead of time to greet them at the entrance.

We are at war now.

Aside from the well-established Black Tower Academy and the Raven Wizarding Guild, the competition among other wizarding families in the Death Rift region for senior apprentices is extremely fierce.

An apprentice of unknown origin, but most likely a senior apprentice of a free wizard, deserves a warm welcome.

If we can keep the other person here.

It is entirely beneficial to the Thorn Flower Kingdom.

In chaotic times, building connections and accumulating strength is the right path.

natural.

The wizard who facilitated this will also receive a hefty reward from the Thorn Flower royal family, making it a profitable endeavor.

Upon meeting.

The manager stepped forward enthusiastically and said with a smile, "You must be the senior apprentice that Gore mentioned. I am Ino, the manager of the Thorn Flower Capital Trading Market."

The Kingdom of Thorns is blessed with excellent natural endowments. Located by the sea in the south, its people live in peace and contentment, and its commerce is thriving.

The wizards living in this region are also different from those in the North.

They are very particular about their clothing and appearance.

An air of nobility emanates from it.

This manager named Ino has a mental magnetic field at the senior apprentice level, but his strength is very weak, and it won't be long before he is promoted to senior.

He was wearing a pure white wizard's robe.

The back of the robe features a large thorn flower pattern in gold and red.

His left hand was adorned with gold and silver.

His right hand was adorned with six gold-plated rings for storage.

Even the front tooth that shows when she smiles has a glittering gold tooth.

Compared to him.

With only a single gold ring on his body, his black wizard robe tattered, and a rag bag slung over his shoulder, Vic looked like a country bumpkin visiting the city for the first time.

If it weren't for the experienced apprentices paving the way ahead...

It's unlikely that the market regulator will give Vic a second glance.

Go out and gain experience.

Strength and status speak for themselves.

Clothing and dressing up are meaningless.

Vic remained calm and immediately stated his purpose, saying bluntly, "A world trader came here many years ago, and I need his help."

Is he still alive?

Instead of giving a direct answer, Ino changed the subject, saying, "So that's what it's about. But it's not convenient to talk here. Why don't you come with me to the VIP room to discuss this further?"

Vic has seen countless people.

Given this response, it's likely that the world trader has already left.

He dislikes wasting time.

Then he asked, "Do you sell starlight here?"

Ino smiled confidently and said, "We have plenty of supplies here. If you have any other needs, you can write a detailed list of materials, and I can stay in the city now."

I will personally take care of it for you afterwards.

Wizards rarely engage in idle chatter unless they are close friends or family.

A brief conversation between Vic and Ino.

They have already clashed several times without even realizing it.

Ino, representing the Thornflower Royal Family, the most powerful wizarding organization in southern Death Rift Valley, has repeatedly tried to persuade Vic to stay.

To enhance the family's strength and foundation.

The latest novel is first published here!

But Vic's purpose was clear.

Completely ignoring what the other person is saying.

If you have the materials I need, I'll buy them; otherwise, goodbye!

He deliberately avoided the trading markets of the two major wizarding organizations in order to avoid being drawn into the war, wasting time, and needlessly taking on risks.

How could I possibly stay in the Thorn Flower Kingdom for some petty gains?

of course.

If they can provide one of the materials for the potion of advancement, Vic might consider staying here for a while in exchange.

in short.

Talk is not enough; we need to add more money.

Vic replied in a flat tone, "Ever-changing starlight, is there?"

Ino's smile froze.

He thought to himself, "Is this person here to cause trouble?"

Not to mention the trading market in the capital of Thornflower, even Black Tower Academy and Raven Wizarding Guild might not have such a rare item.

Moreover.

Could a poorly dressed senior apprentice really afford such top-grade materials?

Viktor refused to eat the rice.

The smile on Ino's face gradually disappeared.

Just as he was about to make a sarcastic remark.

A wizard apprentice came running hurriedly from a distance, sweating profusely. Upon seeing Vic, he first bowed respectfully to show his awe.

Then he whispered two words in Ino's ear.

The latter's expression changed immediately. When he looked at Vic again, his eyes were no longer filled with probing and frivolity, but with awe. He took a deep breath and said, "So it is Master Vic. I was presumptuous."

His Majesty the King wishes to see you.

As he spoke, cold sweat broke out all over his body.

My right hand is trembling slightly.

Fortunately, the news came in time.

If he is unaware of the situation and judges people by their appearance, he might offend this alchemist from the Black Tower Academy and make an enemy for his family.

He dared not imagine the consequences.

Vic's purpose was clear. Since there was nothing he wanted here, there was no point in staying any longer. He said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."

But I have important matters to attend to.

time does not wait.

Please forgive me.

He was invited by a first-level wizard, so Vic would naturally lower his stance, but that wouldn't change his mind.

Seeing that he was about to leave.

Ino started to panic.

He knew very well that if someone walked away from him, he would be punished afterwards.

In the midst of the chaos, a brilliant idea struck him.

He hurriedly said, "Master Vic, although the trading market doesn't have the materials you want, His Majesty the King has channels and methods to obtain top-grade starlight."

Vic knew this was a lie the other party had made up to persuade him to stay.

But then I thought about it again.

Trying our luck isn't out of the question.

He readily agreed and followed the wizard apprentice who delivered the message, leaving the trading market.

After Vic left.

Ino was already covered in sweat. He hurriedly whispered a few words to a knight beside him, asking him to take a detour to the palace to explain the situation.

He has now stabilized Vic's position.

But how to handle the follow-up?

He was in a real bind.

The ever-changing starlight?

He didn't even have a rainbow of starlight of a second grade.
