After a long talk with Lin Li, Andoine seemed to have forgotten about it.
He still stayed in the potion lab all day, and from time to time, he made some movements that made Lin Li tremble with fear.
Lin Li had always wondered if something would really happen to this stubborn old man one day after being bombed so many times …
But for now, although Andoine would make some movements every day, at least his body was still intact.
It was not until the seventh day after the long talk that the stubborn old man called Lin Li to the outside of the wooden hut.
"How about helping me?"
For some reason, Lin Li always felt that the smile on the old man's face had some ulterior motives.
But after thinking about it carefully, he had been living and eating the old man's food for the past month. After that, he still had to find the old man to learn magic from. It would not be right if he was not willing to help at all. So, he had to bite the bullet and say, "Tell me about it. If I can do it, I will try my best to help."
"Actually, it's not a big deal …" Andoine rubbed his hands awkwardly. "You know, my luck hasn't been very good these few days. There have been a few accidents in the pharmaceutical experiments. Although these accidents weren't very serious, they caused me to lose a lot of materials."
"I'm afraid it's not as simple as bad luck …" Lin Li muttered in his heart. After staying here for more than a month, he could see that old Andoine's attainments in magic were indeed unparalleled, but in pharmaceutics, he was worse than a beginner apprentice. A beginner apprentice at least knew how to progress step by step, but Andoine did not care about that at all. He wanted to challenge the difficulty as soon as he started. Now that he had a potion master like Lin Li by his side, he could clean up anything that happened. The old man was even more unscrupulous in doing such things. It made the potion lab feel like it was celebrating the Spring Festival every day. If it did not explode a few times a day, then the old man must have taken the wrong medicine.
"But fortunately, I've already counted this morning. Most of the materials are not troublesome. The most serious loss is only the wild steelbloom …"
Only a large number of wild steelbloom had been lost, which was indeed a great fortune amidst the misfortune. Compared to the leaves of the Wisdom Tree, wild steelbloom was far too common. The only condition for their growth was shade, and the darker and more humid the place, the better it was for them to grow. This kind of environment could be seen everywhere, and there were countless of them in the Sunset Mountains alone.
"So you want me to …" Lin Li had roughly guessed what Andoine wanted to say. He thought that it was not a big deal. It was just to help him get some wild steelbloom. Anyway, he had nothing else to do other than practicing elemental sequencing. So, Lin Li answered very straightforwardly, "No problem. If you can't leave for the time being, I can help you pick some."
"Thank God …" Old Andoine was relieved. He explained with some embarrassment, "I've been waiting for a very important piece of news these few days. I really can't find the time to pick them. It's great that you're willing to help!"
After finding out where the wild steelbloom grew, Lin Li went out without much delay.
This was the first time he had left Andoine's cabin since he had transmigrated.
Walking in the dark forest, Lin Li's heart felt a little complicated. Half of it was novelty, and the other half was nervousness.
Lin Li, who was both novel and nervous, naturally did not pay attention to it. As soon as he stepped out of the cabin, Andoine chanted a spell. As the spell was finished, Lin Li's figure began to slowly appear on the crystal ball in front of him …
According to Andoine, there was a wild steelbloom growing spot not far from the cabin. It was only a few minutes' walk from the cabin. It was said that it used to be the nest of a group of Manticores. However, in the last Blacktide, this group of Manticores had died. No one knew what magical beast killed them. Even Andoine could only guess from the traces around them that they had probably encountered their natural enemy, the Black Dragon, in that Blacktide.
Lin Li was now standing outside the lair. It had only been a year, but the lair was already barren and overgrown with weeds. The wildflowers at the entrance of the lair were blooming unusually brightly.
As he approached the entrance of the overgrown cave, he only felt a cold and damp air. As soon as Lin Li got closer, he knew that he had found the right place. This cave was dark and damp. It was the perfect place for wild steelbloom to grow.
Just like where most of the wild steelbloom grew, the cave was dark and damp, and the surrounding stone walls were slippery. It felt like touching a huge python. It was pitch black in front of him, and there was no light at all. Lin Li had no choice but to light a torch, and use this as the only source of light to explore the depths.
In fact, not long after entering the cave, Lin Li saw patches of wild steelbloom.
But he did not pick them. Instead, he held the torch and continued to explore.
Because he still remembered that there was another herb that had the same habits as the Wild Steelbloom, and that was the ghost grass. It also liked dark and humid places, and it also grew in caves. However, compared to the Wild Steelbloom, the ghost grass was buried deeper and more concealed.
Based on Lin Li's experience, he would most likely find the ghostgrass where the wild steelbloom grew the most.
He wanted to find out if his past experience was equally applicable in this world.
So he did not look back.
The front seemed to be getting wider and wider. It was just a small cave when he first came in, but as Lin Li walked deeper and deeper, the cave seemed to have become a maze.
Lin Li went around in the maze for a long time, passing through one passage after another. Then, he suddenly felt that the front suddenly became clear.
This was simply an underground wasteland. It was empty and vast. Large patches of wild steelbloom grew wildly in the wasteland. And in the midst of that beautiful purple and red, there were spots of gray. That was the color of the ghostgrass.
When he saw the spots of gray in the flowers, Lin Li felt that his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
In this world, probably no one could understand Lin Li's feelings now. Even Andoine, who was closest to him, could not.
The experience of the Endless World was also applicable in Anril.
What did this mean? It meant that Lin Li was also a master of all professions in Anril!
Not only in professions such as pharmaceutics, alchemy, and smithing, but also in knowledge of herbs, which was more of a knowledge level, he was also at the master level!
Lin Li only managed to suppress the excitement in his heart after he finished picking all the ghostgrass in the bushes. This was probably the happiest thing that had happened to him after he had transmigrated. Lin Li knew very well what it meant to be a master of all professions. This was almost equivalent to an omnipotent superman. With such a background, his future in this strange world seemed to be gradually becoming clearer.
Lin Li spent almost an hour before he finished picking all the ghostgrass in the underground wasteland. Even with Lin Li's wealth, he could not bear to let go of one of them. Compared to the wild steelbloom, the ghostgrass had too many uses. In addition to the Wisdom Refining Potion, the Agility Potion, the Petrification Potion, and other quite practical potions also had ghostgrass in them.
Lin Li also picked some of the wild steelbloom, but as a master of herbalism, he was really not interested in such cheap herbs. He just casually picked some, and after thinking that it was enough for the old man to squander, he refused to waste his energy bending over.
After doing all this, Lin Li was about to leave the cave when he suddenly smelled a fishy stench.
There was a strong smell of blood in the stench, just like thick and thick blood.
Before Lin Li could react, he heard a low growl coming from behind.
He turned around hurriedly, and saw a dark red shadow.
"F * ck!"
