The Wizard World - Chapter 223

Chapter 223
The two old wizards glanced at Angele .
"Interesting . You want to join the potions department?" The old man on the left said in a light tone, "Young man, my name is Ander, and I’m in charge of testing the applicants . You know the basics of potion concocting, right?"
"Come on, no point in wasting our time . Take him to the potions lab . Following the rule, you need to concoct a healing gel within one hour . It should be easy if you know the basics . " The other old man was getting impatient .
"Healing gel? Or healing potion?" Angele questioned .
"They’re basically the same thing . " Ander slightly nodded, he stared at Angele and hesitated for a second . It looked like he was a bit confused . "Alright, go to your potions lab and finish your test within one hour . Don’t try to play any trick . We know what that potion looks like . "
Angele knitted his eyebrows . He felt uncomfortable listening to the two potion masters giving orders like that, but he knew that that was how the potion masters treated other wizards . They were the only people who could supply the organization with the basic potions .
The wizard apprentice led him to the other side of the pond and they entered one of the potion labs .
"That’ll be your potions lab . I’ll come back in an hour . Please use your time wisely," the apprentice said in a light tone .
"Sure . " Angele nodded .
The room was a bit dark . On the left side, there was a table that was covered in potion concocting equipment, such as the beakers, burners, and the test tubes . Everything needed for concocting the healing gel was here .
*************************
Half an hour later .
"Ander? What’re you thinking?"
Vista stared at Ander . Looking confused, he waved his hands several times in front of Ander’s eyes .
Ander shook his head slightly .
"Ah, nothing . This kid reminds me of something . "
"What thing? Why don’t you just tell me?"
"Well, everyone has their own secrets, right?" Ander smiled . "Okay, I’ll go check that young man’s potion skill first . "
"There are people waiting for me . I’ll talk to you later . See you . Next time you come to the east, make sure you contact me . " Vista chuckled .
"Of course . We know each other for a long time, so how can I forget?" Ander shook his head speechlessly .
"Alright then, I’ll be leaving now . " Vista turned around and walked to the garden, then he vanished into the narrow path .
Ander watched his friend leave before walking to the potions labs on the other side of the pond .
‘That feeling…It’s identical to the wreckage I saw earlier…It can’t be a coincidence . ’ He stood outside Angele’s potion lab and started thinking .
‘I need to do some basic tests . "
Ander turned around and walked away . He entered a small potion lab by the end of the row .
He locked the door right away .
The room was empty, and the stone floor was covered by a magic circle surrounded by runes . Some of the blue runes were glowing but the rest was fading away .
The magic circle looked broken and the glowing runes were the only source of light in the room .
Ander walked to the center of the room and waved his right hand .
*KA*
His right arm turned into a black wing within seconds that had a metallic silver glint on the feathers .
Ander swung his wing in front and created a black vortex . He stepped into the center of the vortex and started invoking incantations .
As the vortex got intense, red glow surrounded Ander’s eyes, and his incantation speed was increasing .


The vortex slowly slowed down and disappeared after a while .
"That’s it! I knew it!" Ander’s right arm turned into black smoke and formed the human arm he originally had . The old man looked excited about the intel he just acquired .
"It’s my lucky day now! HAHAHA!"
*********************
*CHI*
The green liquid was slowly injected into a translucent crystal tube and the liquid was still bubbling .
Angele held the test tube in hand and he flicked it slightly .

*DANG*
He was satisfied with the result he acquired .
*Creak*
Suddenly, the door behind him was pushed open and he heard footsteps .
Angele turned his head around and saw Ander standing by the door .
"Master Ander? Good timing, I just finished making the healing gel…" he said calmly .
"There is…some ancient blood flowing through your veins…right?" Ander sent the message using energy particles .
"Huh?" Angele remained calm . "What are you talking about? Ancient bloodline? You mean the bloodline of the ancient monsters? I certainly don’t have that in my body . "
"The ancient bloodline of the harpies…I can smell that from you…Don’t try to hide it from me . " Ander sneered . "Don’t try to kill me . I know the bloodline and I know the power of the illusion signet . I can summon the hunt team within a second . You can’t fight a whole group of Liquid stage wizards and possibly a Crystal stage wizard . "


Angele leaned to the right and peeked outside . There were several wizards walking around who did not look like ordinary light wizards .
"You’re kidding, right? What are you talking about? I know nothing about the bloodline . " Angele’s brows furrowed .
"Explain it to me then . What’s that signet on your palm? The signet from harpy’s bloodline can only be created on the palms . Can you show me your palms if you’re telling the truth?" Ander pursed his lips .
Angele’s heart rate was increasing, but he was trying not to show anything on his face .
The two remained silent after exchanging words . The only thing Angele could hear was the footsteps of the wizards outside .
The place was a branch of the hunting team and it was impossible for Angele to fight all of them just by himself . The old man probably had special methods to contact the team . Even with the illusion signet, he was certain that it would not be highly effective on a Crystal stage wizard .
In addition to that, in Nola, he could not cast high damage spells without being detected by the towers, so his skills were limited .
However, he could not afford if Ander leaked his secret about the ancient blood .
"Hey, Lawrence, what do you need?" An incredibly powerful mentality wave appeared outside the door .
Angele held his breath and decided not to do anything stupid .
The mentality wave was much stronger than the first Crystal stage wizard he met in the mission, and his instinct was telling him to stay away from that man .
"Nothing, you know what’s happening to the resource points, right? I want your opinion on that," another man responded .
The two were chatting beside the pond . The two strong mentality waves were the brightest in the night sky . Although they were far from the potions labs, they could get to Angele’s room within seconds .
Angele narrowed his eyes . "What do you want? Tell me . "
"Tell me how you extracted the ancient blood . Otherwise, you know what’s going to happen . " Ander chuckled . Angele could see the greed in his eyes .
"Ah, one more thing . I’m a contracted potion master of the Six Ring High Tower . I’m marked with a special life mark . If you kill me somehow, you’ll be tracked down by the hunting team . " It seemed he was not confident with his fighting skills so he decided to threaten Angele first .


"Is that so?" Blue light dots flashed in front of Angele’s eyes . The method of extracting ancient blood involved the use of the chip . It was impossible for him to give Ander the complete procedure .
"The method…Sure, I’ll write that down for you . I found it by luck, actually . If you don’t tell me, I won’t ever know that it was the ancient bloodline . " He slightly nodded his head .
"Sounds great . " Ander sneered again .
Angele had to write down the method recorded in the books he found in Ramsoda’s library . He switched some of its concepts and tried to make it look complicated so that Ander would not notice the method was fake .
Half an hour later, Ander checked the notes from Angele and looked satisfied .
Ander raised his head and looked at the pouch on Angele’s belt .
"Hey, give me your pouch too . You need to pay me so I won’t run around and tell others your secret . "
Angele gritted his teeth and stared at Ander . The two strong mentality waves were still outside . He hesitated for a second before he threw his pouch to Ander .
*PA*
Ander caught the pouch and checked the contents . A surprised look appeared on his face .
"You have some great items here…" the old man muttered .
"Happy now? I extracted the ancient blood by luck . Don’t be too greedy," Angele said calmly . He was waiting for an opportunity . After the two strong wizards outside left, he wanted to finish off Ander without triggering the life mark . It was not an impossible task .
"One more thing . " Ander stared at Angele in his eyes .
"Transfer your illusion signet to me . " He suddenly lowered his head and tried to find the signet from Angele’s palm . "Do it, I want it right now . I know you can transfer it . "
The atmosphere here was heavy .
Angele narrowed his eyes again . Invisible black flower patterns appeared all over his skin . They looked like snakes that were moving around and surrounded by a mysterious aura .
