Chapter 182 Crusade
After leaving the Lord's Tower, Enzo returned to the manor in the north of the city.
"Joining the Kendi family in the form of a contract, although you can get advanced meditation methods, it is definitely not in my interest to be bound by the family for life."
"For rejecting Ulysses today, he must be dissatisfied."
"But it doesn't matter. Anyway, I have Mentor Gustav as my backer. In addition, as an apprentice of [Phantom of Crows], even the Kendi family cannot use coercion to force me to sign a contract."
In the laboratory, Enzo looked thoughtful.
"I have just been promoted to a third-level apprentice. For a period of time, I will not be able to use [Blue Potion] to increase my mental power."
"The exchange meeting for potion masters that Ralph mentioned will be held in three days, so I should seize the time to refine a batch of potions so that I can exchange resources with other potion masters at the exchange meeting."
After making up his mind, Enzo started preparing to refine the potion.
"It's a pity that there are not enough materials. Otherwise, if you make a few [Blue Potions], they will definitely be very popular." While lighting the black candlestick, Enzo sighed slightly and said, "[Azure Potions] are valuable, but one material requires 60 pieces." Magic stones, and the most precious sunflower among them are extremely priceless and almost impossible to find."
Sunflower is the core material of [Azure Potion], and one piece requires 50 magic stones.
Unable to refine [Azure Potion], Enzo can only choose other potions. Currently, he has dozens of formulas. In addition to [Burning Potion] and [Azure Potion], there are more [Magic Potions], [ Healing Potion] and other basic potions.
These basic potion recipes are widely circulated in the wizarding world and existed before the establishment of the Potions Association. Therefore, they are not protected by patent rights and can be learned by any potion master. Many newcomers will try them when they first learn about potions.
"Let's begin." After taking a deep breath, Enzo began to refine the potion.
Deep in the dark forest.
Tall and lush trees are connected together, blocking the sunlight from the sky, making this forest a bit dark. Because there was a drizzle not long ago, there is a hint of coldness in the air.
Somewhere in the forest, in the canopy of a tree.
A carrion crow with scarlet eyes landed on a branch, combing its feathers with its beak from time to time. Suddenly, it heard a small sound, and it raised its head alertly, then flapped its wings and flew away.
"Phew!" Suddenly, a ball of green slime came over from a distance.
The carrion crow was hit by the mucus and didn't even make a sound. The corroded flesh and blood were instantly blurred and fell from the air like a ball of disgusted flesh.
Crunch, crunch.
The sound of footsteps stepping on dead branches was heard, and not far away, a team of wizards came out. Most of them were wearing gray robes, with thunder and lightning patterns embroidered on their collars and cuffs.
The leader was a middle-aged wizard who walked at the front without saying a word.
He has a pair of amber green eyes, a high nose, long light green hair hanging on his shoulders, a cane in his hand, wearing an emerald green robe, and exuding a wave of magic power.
"Lord Idru, the entrance should be near here."
A gray-robed apprentice stepped forward and picked up the dead carrion crow on the ground. He looked around, then looked at the map in his hand, lowered his head and said.
"Yeah." Idru said with a blank expression, the tip of his nose moved, "I can already smell those rats."
After saying that, Idru took a few steps in one direction, and suddenly stabbed a tree with the crutch in his hand.
A strange scene ensued. A stream of scarlet blood flowed from the tree that was stabbed by the cane. On the wrinkled surface of the tree, a ferocious human face appeared with blurred eyes and mouth.
"Damn intruder!" The tree demon roared angrily.
The next moment, it suddenly waved up the vines and rolled them towards Idru. At the same time, it also slapped the ground desperately, making a dull sound.
In the surrounding woods, pairs of bloodthirsty scarlet eyes appeared.
"Humph!" Idru snorted coldly, and shot out a burst of energy from the front end of the crutch. The wrinkled and dry body surface of the dryad suddenly exploded with a bang, forming a bloody hole.
"Ugh!! I'm going to kill you!"
A painful expression appeared on the dryad's face, and it roared. Its huge body trembled violently, and the vines hanging from the crown of the tree swung wildly.
At the same time, a group of violent goblins emerged from the forest.
"It seems that this is indeed the entrance to the fallen wizard's lair." Seeing a group of transformed violent goblins, Idru had a sneer on his face and raised his hands suddenly.
On the ground, green bamboos sprouted out of the ground!
Following a burst of screams, the violent goblins were pierced by green bamboos. The smell of blood filled the forest. Under the suppression of Idru wizard-level magic, those goblins were unable to even self-destruct.
In a moment, all the violent goblins in the forest were wiped out.
"Next, it's your turn." Idru raised his head and looked at the tree demon expressionlessly.
"Ugh! Please forgive me, great wizard."
Seeing a group of goblins being wiped out in an instant, the anger in the dryad's heart was immediately replaced by fear. It gathered the vines into the canopy, and its huge body trembled uncontrollably.
"Begging for mercy now? It's too late."
Idru's amber eyes were cold, and the expression on his face did not change at all. The crutch in his hand suddenly penetrated into the dryad's trunk.
"No!!!" The tree demon made a desperate sound.
The next moment, its huge body began to wither, as if its vitality had been drained, and it quickly withered. In just a few seconds, it degenerated from a tree demon into an ordinary tree.
Click!
Idru pulled out his crutch, and the withered trees broke in half.
"Sir, look!" A gray-robed apprentice's eyes lit up and he pointed forward.
After the tree demon's huge body collapsed, a dark cave was revealed below, and according to the description on the map, that seemed to be the entrance to the underground ruins.
"Very well, let's go in."
Idru nodded, with the corners of his lips raised slightly, and led a group of gray-robed apprentices into the cave.
"Hmph! Justin, you were lucky enough to escape during the crusade a few years ago. This time I will directly destroy your Nightfall City to see where you and those dirty rats can hide."
Thunder City, Manor.
Three days have passed since he last left the Lord's Tower. During this time, Enzo converted all the few magic stones left in his hand into potions.
"The exchange meeting will start soon. We have to get to the Potion Association as soon as possible."
In the laboratory, after Enzo finished refining the last potion, he extinguished the candlestick, put all the equipment back in place, then put on a gray robe, and headed to the Potion Association with the potions accumulated in the past few days. .
