He wiped the sweat off his forehead and rested on a stool nearby. It took him a while to recover from the pain of the test.
He took out the Potion of Austere Night from his pocket and wondered if he should drink it right now.
The Potion of Austere Night was a beginner potion. It was harder to make than an intermediate potion, and the materials used to make it were extremely precious. Even the best alchemists could easily make mistakes when making the potion. Only alchemists such as "Mithril Innovator" Jellal could have a decent success rate. Due to its great difficulty, the Potion of Austere Night was rarely seen even in the Sky Auction.
By this time, Sanders had already stopped writing. He saw Angor unscrewed the lid of the potion and smelled the bone-chilling aroma. Angor seemed to be struggling.
"The Potion of Austere Night can increase your maximum spiritual power by two points. However, it's a potion that uses up your spiritual power. I suggest you don't use it for now," Sunders said. "Of course, if you think you can't improve your spiritual power anymore, the potion won't do you any harm. It won't affect you too much. But if you think you can improve your spiritual power further, you can keep it for now and use it later. "
Potion of Austere Night was a potion that used up one's spiritual power? This was the first time Angor heard about it. The book only mentioned that it could increase one's maximum spiritual power by two points. It did not explain how it could do that. So it was because it used up one's potential.
If one used up all of one's potential, even if he could find another chance to improve his spiritual power, he would not be able to do so anymore. However, chances to improve one's spiritual power were extremely rare. 90% of supernaturals would use the Potion of Austere Night right away.
If Angor had the potion before going to the Nightmare Realm, Sunders would not stop him from using it. However, when he thought about the magical wall in the Nightmare Realm, he could not help but advise Angor against it. If the wall could really improve one's spiritual power, using the Potion of Austere Night now would not be worth it.
Angor also thought about the wall protected by Glutton Flowers.
Angor did not tell Sunders much about the wall, such as the patterns on the wall and the images he recorded with his hologram tablet.
When thinking about the tablet, Angor almost forgot about one thing. He went to the Nightmare Realm as a soul, so the hologram tablet should be incorporeal. He wondered if the videos and photos he took in the Nightmare Realm had been preserved.
If the recording failed, Angor would regret it for a long time. Not to mention the patterns on the wall and the parchment he plundered from the Stairs of Hanging Prison, just the secret alchemy book in the Warden's underground tunnel was enough to make him reluctant to part with it.
He decided to check the hologram tablet as soon as he got back to his dorm.
Since Sunders was trying to dissuade him, he would not insist. He accepted the potion without hesitation. He didn't plan to drink the potion for the time being. If possible, he would like to give it to his brother Leon. Maybe with this potion, Leon's spiritual power could be increased to 10 points. By then, the Padt Family would have two Extraordinaries, and their influence in the Goldspink Empire would increase by a lot!
Angor put away the Potion of Austere Night and stood in front of Sunders respectfully.
"May I know why Teacher called me here?"
"Have you started meditating?"
Angor shook his head shyly. "I was too tired yesterday and fell asleep right after I got back. I didn't get up until just now. "
"Good." Sunders handed the notebook on the desk to Angor. "Here are some of my speculations about the channeling method, as well as some things you need to pay attention to. Take it. You can refer to it when you practice the channeling method."
He took the notebook and flipped through it. Next to the Singularity Dispersive Meditation he wrote down from memory, there were countless tiny words written down by Sunders. They were all about Sunders' personal experiences during his training.
He only read a small part of it, but he already knew how valuable it was. With these notes, Angor believed that he would be able to avoid many detours in his training.
Angor thanked Sunders excitedly, but the latter only waved a hand.
"As your teacher, I hope you can go far." Sunders paused. "Compared to the channeling method book you brought back, they're nothing. You know how valuable it is. According to the exchange rules in the wizarding world, you gave it to me, and I can fulfill one of your wishes. "
"Without you, I wouldn't have known about this channeling method, and I wouldn't have been able to go to Nether City. Even under the principle of equivalent exchange, your information is part of the deal. Plus, I can still learn from you, so I don't need any extra payment. " Angor spoke sincerely. He was a little hesitant when he first became Sunders' student. Now that the knot in his heart was untied, he began to officially accept Sunders as his teacher.
Heaven, Earth, Father, Father, and Father. Chown's years of education not only allowed him to learn about the local culture, but also the essence of Earth's culture. Regardless of whether it was the Other World or this world, 'teachers' were highly respected. Now that Angor truly accepted Sunders as his teacher, he naturally became more respectful.
"Are you sure you don't want the wish? For example, you can ask me to save your first teacher. I won't refuse, "Sunders said again.
Angor was surprised. He was very tempted by Sunders' suggestion. If Sunders really helped, Chown would be cured quickly. But … Angor then remembered Chown's identity — a stowaway from another dimension. What would Sunders do if he found out? Angor did not know. But judging from the way the wizarding world treated otherworldly creatures, it would not end well.
Angor decided to hurry up. He decided to make the best use of his time. The most important thing right now was to improve his strength. Only by saving Jon himself could he keep Jon's secret.
Angor rejected Sunders' suggestion again. Sunders nodded with a smile and did not say anything else. However, he looked at Angor with even more satisfaction.
Next, Sunders told Angor about some things to pay attention to during training, as well as the things in the Nightmare Realm. Angor was especially interested in Angor's experience in the Glutton Flower tunnel, so he repeated it several times. He almost accidentally mentioned "flashlight".
Before leaving, Sunders pointed at something on the other side of the bar. "Take your paintings with you when you leave."
Angor saw two oil paintings on the bar table near the liquor cabinet. They were the ones he brought back from the Nightmare Realm.
Both paintings were standing upright, so Angor could easily see what was in them. Angor glanced at The Milking Shepherd subconsciously. The painting was still normal. There was nothing wrong with it.
If I still have the hologram tablet, I need to check if there's anything wrong with it. Angor thought.
