Who taught him to restore the country like this?

boom--

Countless lava lines instantly burst from the giant stone golem's surface, and the scorching heat distorted the air. It opened its huge mouth, and a torrent of boiling lava surged out like a volcanic eruption.

At the same time, two huge rock arms swept left and right, completely blocking all space for the blonde woman to dodge.

Seeing nowhere to escape, the blonde woman panicked, even forgetting to admit defeat. Her instinct for survival compelled her to mobilize all her magical power, desperately unleashing her most powerful wind attack magic. A massive, condensed wind blade slashed fiercely at the core of the lava golem.

"Won!"

Tallulah endured the severe pain in her right eye and the dizziness caused by the overdrawn magic power, turned her head to look at Ron on the sidelines, grinned with a tired but excited smile, and raised her thumbs.

However, Ron's eyes narrowed slightly.

next second!

Rumble, rumble——

A terrifying roar far exceeding the previous one exploded in the training ground, and the huge lava puppet collapsed from the inside, and countless huge pieces of rubble burning with flames flew everywhere like a meteorite rain.

shhhhh--

Several sharp wind blades shot out from the collapsing rocks and dust, heading straight for Tallulah, who was staggering due to the backlash of her magic power caused by the collapse of her puppet.

Talulah reacted extremely quickly, using the last bit of her magic power to create a thin magic shield.

Bang bang bang!

The wind blade hit the shield hard, causing violent ripples. The shield was shaking, but it finally blocked it.

"Huh, is this your strongest trump card?"

The blonde woman slowly rose from the smoke in a somewhat embarrassed manner. Although her breath was a little disordered, her eyes had regained their condescending contempt as she looked down coldly at the crumbling Tallulah.

"How can this be!?"

Tallulah looked at the shattered lava puppet in disbelief.

She didn't believe the blonde had the ability to break the lava golem anyway.

She turned her head sharply, her angry gaze shooting like sharp arrows at the middle-aged man from the Gray Demon Court standing at the edge of the training ground: "You cheated!"

The middle-aged man remained expressionless and turned a deaf ear to her accusations.

The blonde woman had no intention of explaining anything to her, and pointed with her wand.

Dense wind blades shot out.

Talulah had overused arcane magic, and her body was already overloaded, making it impossible for her to dodge the intensive attacks.

The blonde woman looked at Tallulah, who didn't evade, and the corners of her mouth slowly rose.

'I won!'

"I won."

"I won!"

The ecstasy in her heart and Tallulah's cold voice sounded at the same time!

The blonde was stunned.

Then, a terrifying aura that made her soul tremble suddenly descended! She looked up in horror -

boom! ! !

A giant rock foot that was twice as big as the previous stone puppet stomped on the ground. Amidst the smoke and dust, a terrifying stone puppet that was ten meters tall rose from the ground, like a demon descending to the earth.

Tallulah stood on the shoulder of this new puppet, her face pale, her eyes as cold as ice, looking down at her indifferently.

The giant stone golem's mountain-like rock arm, carrying the shadow of death that crushed everything, crashed down with a bang! The air was compressed and made a sharp explosion.

"we lose."

Just as the giant fist was about to devour the blonde woman, the middle-aged man from the Grey Devil House appeared like a ghost. He simply raised his hand, and the unstoppable giant rock arm shattered into pieces as if it had hit an invisible barrier.

He opened his mouth to admit defeat, but his eyes passed over the collapsed stone arm and fell accurately on Ron at the edge of the training ground.

Ron met his gaze, a faint smile playing at the corner of his mouth.

"Teacher Barton, please make a potion for them. I will personally explain to the Grey House."

The middle-aged man withdrew his gaze, gave Barton some instructions, and then turned and left with the pale, frightened blonde woman.

Barton looked at the two people's departing backs and revealed a complicated and helpless smile.

At this moment, the giant stone puppet on the training ground dissipated like quicksand. Ron quickly stepped forward and caught Tallulah who was falling from the sky.

"Teacher Gatling, we won!"

Leaning in Ron's arms, Tallulah's face was filled with the joy of victory.

"Yes, Not Bad."

Putting Tallulah down, Ron nodded slightly, his tone filled with a hint of approval.

"Teacher Gatling, was it you just now..." Tallulah panted, her eyes flashing with excitement and inquiry.

"Let's talk about it when we get back." Ron interrupted her question and turned his gaze to Barton who was walking over.

Barton looked at Ron and asked, "So, what potion do you need to make?"

Chapter 98 Elemental Puppet

The competition was over and Patton accepted the defeat.

Since Barton decided to join the Grey House and could no longer stay at Secret Star Academy, Tallulah brought Barton back to the Arcane Academy.

In the Arcane Academy's alchemy room, Barton carefully examined the herbs Tallulah had sent him, his brows furrowed. Even with over a decade of alchemy experience, he couldn't quite guess what kind of potion Ron was trying to create.

"This is a new type of potion that has not yet been circulated on the market. I hope you can sign a secret contract."

After Ron asked Tallulah to leave the room, he took out a sheepskin contract that was glowing with magic.

Alchemists are generally very averse to secret agreements, as this is a question of their credibility and a restriction on their exploration of knowledge.

Under normal circumstances, if Barton heard the other party asking to sign a secret contract, he would directly refuse to make potions for them.

But now he was refining medicine for Ron because of the bet in the competition, so he was not so opposed to the secret agreement.

After a little thought, Patton signed the secret contract.

After signing this secret contract, he is not allowed to disclose the relevant information of the new potion in any form, nor is he allowed to refine the potion without the employer's permission.

"The potion I'm going to make is called the Soul-Transforming Potion. It uses the remaining soul aura of the deceased to temporarily transform a person's soul into the soul of the deceased."

Ron put away the secret contract and told them about the potion he was going to make.

After listening to this, Barton raised his eyebrows unconsciously.

This description sounds... vaguely familiar?

"Any questions?" Ron asked.

"No problem, keep talking," Patton said.

"There's nothing more to say. Just follow the steps above to refine it."

Ron handed over a piece of parchment covered with tiny handwriting, which detailed the order in which each herb should be added, the time nodes accurate to the second, and the key to controlling the heat.

This is a low-end prescription he exchanged for his reputation points. It’s fine as long as it works.

With Patton's experience as a high-level alchemist and the support of the prescription, refining it shouldn't be too difficult.

……

Outside the pharmacy.

Tallulah paced back and forth like a restless cat, her mind completely absorbed in the recent competition.

When the blonde woman cheated and the lava puppet collapsed, she was indeed completely desperate and even prepared to accept failure.

However, at that critical moment, a powerful and mysterious life energy suddenly poured into her body, which not only instantly activated the rune array she had set up in advance but had dimmed, but also allowed her to miraculously condense a giant stone puppet with twice the power, reversing the situation in one fell swoop.

That life energy... was a perfect match for her arcane power. Not only did it double the puppet's strength, it even gave her the illusion that she could remotely revive the destroyed Molten Golem.

The feeling of comfort and strength that came from deep within her soul was so wonderful that even thinking about it now, she couldn't help but tremble slightly with excitement...

The Arcane Academy had also tried to integrate life magic into the arcane, but the result was like pouring a glass of water into a lake, with no ripples.

However, Ron's life magic was like a tsunami that could instantly make the entire ocean boil, directly overturning Tallulah's understanding of the upper limit of arcane power.

As long as she learned Ron's life magic, she felt that her strength could be raised to a higher level.

She couldn't wait to learn this amazing life magic!

At this moment, the door of the pharmacy creaked open.

"Mr. Gatling."

Tallulah rushed to Ron like an arrow, and without saying a word, she knelt on her knees, her only remaining left eye flashing with an extremely eager light: "Please teach me that life magic!"

Ron closed the door and looked down at Tallulah with a calm expression: "Sixth-level magic, you can't learn it at your level."

"Then... is it a fifth-level magic with similar effects?" asked Tallulah.

"No."

"What about the fourth level?"

"No."

"Eh..." Tallulah's face instantly fell, her disappointment evident in her words.

Ignoring her pitiful and aggrieved look, Ron's eyes fell on the row of silver metal bars on her waist: "Can anyone use this thing of yours?"

"this one?"

Tallulah pulled out one and said, "It's made of mithril. It can carry any material or magical changes, but it requires mastery of the arcane to activate it."

Seeing that Ron seemed very interested, she generously handed the mithril rod to Ron and asked, "Do you want to learn the arcane?"

Ron attempts to use life magic on the Mithril Rod.

The mithril rod showed no reaction.

"It's okay. I can teach you. It's easy to learn." Tallulah said excitedly, "There are even more advanced alloy rods in the dean's office. Wait, I'll get them."
