A favor from a law-defying wizard on top of an ancient potion formula, this was quite generous.
At least, a favor from a law-defying wizard was very important. If anyone offended Abel in the future, he could use this favor to ask Wizard Hume for help.
Of course, this was the stupidest choice. A favor from Wizard Hume could very well save Abel's life in a critical moment.
Also, judging from the look on Wizard Hume's face, if Abel didn't agree, he would offend an important law-defying wizard in the Wizard Union.
"WIzard Hume, you need to think this through. 5 sets of ingredients might not be enough to make a potion. If you fail, you need to be prepared!" Abel still had to tell WIzard Hume about the worst-case scenario.
"Master Bennett, please do it. If you fail, it's fate!" Wizard Hume lowered his voice and said with determination flashing in his eyes.
Afterward, Wizard Hume took out a portal bag and handed it to Abel. After Abel took it, he reached his power of the Will into it. It was a portal bag of 5 square meters. From the looks of it, Wizard Hume was giving it to Abel.
A portal bag of 5 square meters was very precious to other elite wizards, but it was nothing to Wizard Hume who was in charge of the resource department of the Wizard Union.
Abel saw the 5 square meters portal bag and knew the spirit guardian potion must be very precious. Even Wizard Hume took it seriously.
He did not look at the ingredients first. Instead, he took out a piece of black metal and carved a potion formula on it.
There were more than 130 ingredients in the formula, which was more than the natural breathing potion. This meant it was even more difficult to make than the natural breathing potion.
This was why Wizard Hume didn't want to give it to the other masters. The "natural breathing" potion was very difficult to make. Even the masters who made it often couldn't guarantee that they would get one out of every 5 sets of ingredients. Instead, they would take more ingredients and make it together to reduce the risk.
The Spirit Guardian Potion was much harder to make than the Natural Breathing Potion. Adding on the fact that no Master Alchemist had ever made it before, the difficulty multiplied. According to the standards of the other Master Alchemists, the success rate of this Spirit Guardian Potion was extremely low. It was so low that it was almost impossible to produce a finished product with five sets of ingredients.
Wizard Hume knew this very well, and that was why he chose Master Bennett. He had analyzed Master Bennett's potion-making skills, and he had no other choice. Only Master Bennett would have a sliver of hope.
The spirit guardian potion was a master level potion that could protect the body of a person who was about to level up. Since it was a master level potion, it was also effective for law-defying wizards.
This was why Wizard Hume had to make the spirit guardian potion. He felt like he was about to level up, and the spirit guardian potion could protect him from the backlash during the process.
He was not alone. There were many wizards and families behind him. He could not afford to fail. Once his strength was damaged, he would lose all the power he had now. That would cause a great loss to all the people behind him.
He didn't want that to happen, no matter how big the price he had to pay. Therefore, he decided to use a favor in exchange for the spirit guardian potion.
After looking at the formula of the spirit guardian potion, he then looked at the five sets of ingredients. He didn't know how the ancient sight had preserved these ingredients, but they were still functioning. They were all in line with the requirements of making the potion.
"Wizard Hume, follow me!" Abel held the portal bag in his hand and said.
"Ok, Master Bennett!" Wizard Hume began to feel a sense of excitement. The calmer Abel was, the more confident he was.
When they arrived at Abel's potion room, Poly was reading a Druil outside. As soon as she saw Wizard Hume, she quickly stood up with a cautious gaze.
Abel didn't ask her to go with him, so she didn't know a law-defying wizard was going to meet with Abel.
"Poly, this is Wizard Hume. Sit with him for a while, I'll go in first!" Abel smiled and introduced.
Wizard Hume also looked at Poly in surprise. He knew Master Bennett had a rank 20 Druil follower, but he didn't expect the rank 20 Druil in front of him to be a Druil that had lost its potential. Instead, it was a Druil that had a glimmer of hope.
A follower had to sign a contract with a master potion maker. Even if they became a big Druil in the future, they would still be a follower of a master potion maker.
This was why there were very few rank 19 and 20 druids that could become followers. These elite druids were rarely willing to be controlled by others.
Druid Gunter went to take care of some business for Abel, so Druid Poly was the only one left here.
Abel walked into the potion making room and began to make potions. It took him 2 hours to process a set of ingredients. Everything was perfectly done according to the ancient recipe.
Even though the effects of the ancient materials were unfamiliar to him, the process of refining them was extremely easy with the help of the world stone fragment.
Abel yelled, "Sublimate!"
The rainbow-colored light rose above the potion and began to shrink. In the end, only the blue light remained above the potion. Finally, it turned into blue electric arcs that flickered within the potion.
Abel shook his head. It was still blue quality. He was going to be famous again!
But then again, his potion making skills would only make more powerful people beg him. It wouldn't hurt him!
He calculated the time and found that a single Master Spirit Guardian Potion had taken him more than three hours. He couldn't help but sigh.
If he was a normal master potion maker, it would take him at least 15 hours to make a potion. Of course, he would also need some time to recover his stamina and spirit. There was no way he could make a potion for 15 hours straight.
A master potion maker wouldn't have much time to spare. Even if he practiced Druil, he wouldn't be able to achieve much. Time was too tight.
Luckily, he had the time difference in the Dark World, so he had enough time to train. On top of that, there was no way he would make a mistake.
He couldn't just walk out now. If he did, he would be telling Wizard Hume that he succeeded in one try!
How would he get extra ingredients in the future? Even if he didn't need the spirit guardian potion, he could still exchange it for other resources.
Afterward, he put away the potion maker union's potion tools and took out the 'Akara's alchemy bottle'. Using the spring water synthesized by the Horadric cube, he began to make 4 portions of the 'spirit guardian potion' at once.
Wizard Hume thought he was a very good person. His long life had made him look down on most things, but he was still worried about the spirit guardian potion.
He had seen too many law-defying wizards who couldn't level up when their lives were about to come to an end. They used all kinds of methods to extend their lives. Not only did these methods make those law-defying wizards look like neither humans nor ghosts, but it also made it very difficult for them to level up in the future.
He didn't want to lose his dignity and become a monster in order to survive.
Therefore, if he wanted to succeed before then, he needed some guarantee. The Spirit Guardian Elixir not only protected his body from the backlash of a failed breakthrough, but also gave him peace of mind. It allowed him to focus on his breakthrough without worrying about the consequences.
After using the spirit guardian potion, the worst thing that could happen to a leveling up was wasting some time. He had to wait for more resources to gather for the next leveling up.
A law-defying wizard and a rank 20 Druil, a human and an elf, a male and a female. They didn't have anything in common, so the atmosphere outside was not very good.
Wizard Hume felt like time had passed for a long time. It was so long that he thought Master Bennett had already started.
Yes, he didn't think Abel had already started making the spirit guardian potion. This was a brand new formula, not to mention that it was an ancient formula. He learned from the advanced potion masters of the Wizard Union that every ingredient needed to be re-analyzed and researched.
He was waiting for Master Bennett to tell him the success rate. Although he was prepared for failure, he was still hoping for a miracle.
In order to obtain these materials, he had paid a huge price. Every single one of the materials that could grow in the Primordial Ruins until now had a sky-high price.
Lunch time had long passed, but Wizard Hume and Druid Poly did not talk about lunch. Wizard Hume was not in the mood, but Druid Poly had already taken the hunger potion that Abel made for her followers. It was a blue howling rabbit flavored one.
The hunger potion allowed Poly to stop eating other food, which made it easier for her Druil to get closer to nature. At least she felt like she was leveling up faster and faster.
At that moment, the door of the potion making room opened, and Abel walked out with a smile.
"Master Bennett, are you sure about the spirit guardian potion?" Wizard Hume quickly stood up and asked.
"Wizard Hume, I've done it!" Abel smiled.
"What?" WIzard Hume was a little confused, but he soon realized what Abel was talking about. He asked in disbelief, "You're saying you've succeeded?"
Abel did not say anything. He just took out a blue spirit guardian potion and placed it on the table. He then gently pushed it towards Wizard Hume.
Wizard Hume carefully picked up the blue spirit guardian potion from the table. This was already beyond his expectations. The spirit guardian potion in front of him was not only a success, but it was also a blue one.
This was not something he saw in the report. Although the report was shocking, it was not as shocking as seeing a blue spirit guardian potion in front of him.
"Master Bennett, you are my friend from now on. You don't have to be polite with me!" Wizard Hume put away the spirit guardian potion and said in a serious tone to Abel.
"Wizard Hume, a blue spirit guardian potion can increase the success rate, but it's not very high. It's only about 5%. I hope it will be useful to you!" Abel smiled.
Wizard Hume was full of smiles. He laughed and sat down to talk with Abel about some interesting things in the Wizard Union.
"WIzard Hume, you said the Blizzards lost 40 elite wizards. Did you catch the culprit?" Abel asked curiously when he heard WIzard Hume talking about Frost City.
"Killer? No, the Wizard Union never thought Wizard Abel was the killer. They believed Wizard Abel was just hiding. The Wizard Union and the lightning clan were supposed to protect him, but too many law-defying wizards were tempted by his stone giant contract beast. The Wizard Union could not completely control the law-defying wizards, so hiding was the right choice!" Wizard Hume sighed.
"Treasures are tempting!" Abel thought about his own situation and replied.
"Master Bennett, do you know what the lightning clan did after that? Wizard Hume smiled and said. "They demanded all wizard organizations not to take in wizards from the Blizzards, and they even started two wizard wars. In the end, all the advanced wizards from the Blizzards became wandering wizards!"
Abel couldn't help but feel touched. He left the Lightning clan, but they were still helping him.
He knew that the lightning clan was doing this to let the entire Central Continent know that he was still under their protection. Although this might not work on some crazy law-defying wizards, it was still very effective on elite wizards and most law-defying wizards.
This greatly reduced the danger Abel would encounter in the Central Continent. He wouldn't accidentally meet some elite wizards who would attack him out of greed.
Abel was already thinking about how he could help the Lightning clan. He didn't have many ways to help, but he could provide some light healing potions.
