Unknowingly, time quickly passed.
Early in the morning, Adil sat on his bed and opened his eyes, ending this Meditation.
[Name: Adil Farcus. Strength: 11.3 Agility: 11.5 Vitality: 11.5 Spirit: 4.2]
The familiar statistics continuously flowed before his eyes, looking the same as before.
Looking at these statistics, Adil had a helpless expression on his face, "It's already been more than a month. Compared to last time, even though I've improved a bit, my spiritual force hasn't changed at all."
Ever since he had entered the level 2 Acolyte stage, the effects of the Meditation Technique had become weaker and weaker, and Adil's progress had become slower and slower. It seemed that he was still a long way from becoming a level 3 Acolyte.
Sitting on his bed, Adil thought for a moment and took out a few black beads from the bag beside him.
These were nodules from a high-energy organism, and if swallowed during Meditation, it would speed up the rate of Meditation.
Looking at these black beads, Adil did not hesitate, taking one out and swallowing it without even chewing.
A few minutes later, a unique feeling of excitement spread throughout his body, bringing with it a sense of comfort and a faint stab of pain.
Sensing this feeling, Adil once again closed his eyes and entered Meditation.
A few hours later, when the effects of the black beads were almost exhausted, Adil came out of Meditation.
Sitting on the bed, he roughly felt it. The effect of this meditation was obviously much better than before. Just a few hours of meditation was comparable to a week's worth of meditation.
"It's a pity that there aren't many Black Scourge Beast nodules left."
After coming out of Meditation, Adil counted the black beads by his side. There were only four or five of them left.
These black beads were very rare. Not only were they expensive, but they were also not something that one could come across all the time.
The reason why Adil could obtain these was because he had recently been selling potions and had made contact with some high-leveled Acolytes. He had gotten some from them, but there were not many of them.
"I need to quickly find another way to increase my spiritual force."
Silently standing up, Adil walked out of the dormitory with this thought flashing through his mind.
After a few hours of meditation, it was almost noon.
Adil made a trip to the academy's cafeteria. After having lunch, he went straight to the underground market.
When he arrived at his stall, there were already a few people waiting there.
"Adil, you're here."
Seeing Adil's arrival, a handsome blonde young man in black and red sleeves greeted him with a smile.
"Grace, I'm sorry I'm a little late."
Looking at the golden-haired young man before him, Adil also revealed a gentle smile, as if he had met a good friend.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, they got straight to the point.
"Alright, have you prepared the potion I mentioned to you before?"
Looking at Adil, Grace pondered for a while before speaking.
Hearing this, Adil nodded, "I'm almost done."
As he spoke, he took out some items from the bag beside him.
It was a bottle of healing potion, about 10 bottles in total. They were neatly placed on the wooden table in front of the stall, emitting a faint green light.
"There are a total of 10 healing potions, which I've recently refined."
Standing on the spot, Adil looked at Grace and said, "If you're worried, you can try them on the spot."
"There's no need for that. I've always been confident in your refining abilities."
Hearing Adil's words, Grace smiled, "According to the price we agreed on, 10 healing potions for a total of 60 magic crystals."
As he spoke, two grey-robed Acolytes walked forward. One of them put away the potions on the wooden table, while the other placed 6 mid-grade magic crystals on the wooden table.
Seeing that the transaction was over, Adil put away the magic crystals on the wooden table and looked at Grace again, "Is there anything else?"
After the transaction, Grace did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked at Adil and said, "Adil, I've made some progress on the matter you asked me to look into previously."
"Hmm?"
Hearing his words, Adil quickly replied, "You're talking about potion formulas?"
"Yes." Seeing Adil's reaction, Grace smiled.
"Previously, after you asked me to help you look for some potion formulas, I told my family about your request. They valued your request greatly, so we quickly found some results."
Standing before Lin Li, Grace said slowly, "But even though we found some, there are some problems with those formulas. They are all from a long time ago."
"Ancient potions?"
Adil asked calmly as he looked at the other party.
Ancient potions referred to potion formulas from a very long time ago. Because of how long ago, some of these formulas were outdated, and some might have hidden dangers. As such, they had long since been abandoned by the current Magi.
Apart from these reasons, the most common reason was that many of the ingredients used in these recipes had already disappeared from the Magus World. Even if one knew the recipe, they would have to spend a lot of effort to improve it and find replaceable ingredients. Otherwise, other than being able to use it as a reference, it would be useless.
"Ancient potions aren't that bad."
Hearing Adil's words, Grace shook his head, "But these formulas are indeed quite old. Even though many of the ingredients are not lost, they are hard to find."
”
"But even so, these are still potion formulas. They should be of some help to you."
"What do you want?"
After standing there and muttering to himself for a moment, Adil spoke again.
"I want 100 Healing Potions within a month."
Grace looked at Adil and said.
"That's impossible."
Hearing the other party's conditions, Adil's expression changed slightly, and he directly refused, "100 Healing Potions within a month is too tight. Even if I can do it, the academy won't be able to get that many ingredients."
Experienced Potion Masters could make one finished potion for every five sets of ingredients, but only a small number of Potion Masters could do that. A novice Potion Master would need at least 10 sets of ingredients to make one finished potion. Moreover, to make 100 Healing Potions within a month, one would definitely need to work overtime, and the success rate would definitely drop.
Under normal circumstances, if Adil wanted to make 100 Healing Potions, he would need to prepare at least 1,000 sets of ingredients. Even if he was in the academy, he might not be able to gather so many ingredients within a month.
"We have considered these problems. You don't have to worry about the ingredients."
Grace looked at Adil and said, "Our family is originally in charge of supplying the potion ingredients to the surrounding academies. Although there are many ingredients required to make 100 Healing Potions, our family can still provide them."
"In addition to the three potion formulas, we will also pay you 300 Magical Stones in one go."
Hearing this condition, Adil's heart stirred, and he couldn't help but ponder for a moment. It seemed like he was still hesitating.
To him, the other party's conditions were indeed very attractive.
Although the three potion formulas were definitely ancient goods, even if they were ancient potions, they would cost at least 200 Magical Stones in normal times. Three sets of formulas would cost at least 600 Magical Stones. In addition to the 300 Magical Stones that Grace would pay, it would be at least 900 Magical Stones.
Moreover, in terms of ingredients, Adil could also save a lot of money.
In terms of the supply of ingredients, Grace would definitely use the standard of 10 Magical Stones to make one Healing Potion. However, in reality, Adil didn't need so many ingredients. With the help of the A.I. Chip, Adil's success rate in making Healing Potions far surpassed that of ordinary Potion Masters. He could save a lot of ingredients.
The ingredients he saved would also be a lot of Magical Stones, which could also be counted as a profit.
After hesitating for a moment, Adil suddenly had some doubts, "Why do you need so many Healing Potions? Although this thing can quickly heal wounds, under normal circumstances, you don't need so many. "
"There's no harm in telling you about this. You will find out soon anyway."
Grace, who was opposite Adil, shook his head, "You should know about the situation in the northern plains. There are a few Magi organisations in a standoff."
"I know a little." Adil nodded his head.
"There is a high possibility that a war is about to break out, and the situation might affect us."
After hesitating for a moment, Grace revealed to Adil, "I can't say too much about the specific reason for now. After a period of time, when the Magi that our academy sent to the north return, you will know. "
Hearing this, Adil subconsciously frowned. After a while, he relaxed, "Alright, when can the ingredients be sent over?"
Hearing this, Grace heaved a sigh of relief in front of Adil.
He stood on the spot and looked at Adil, "There are a total of more than a thousand sets of ingredients, which need to be divided into a few batches. The first batch will be sent over in two days."
"In order to show our sincerity, I can give you the 300 magic stones now."
As he spoke, he walked forward and took out three magic stones from his robes.
Different from ordinary magic stones, these three magic stones had different sizes and colors. They were silver in color and emitted mysterious energy waves that were deep and enchanting.
These were high-grade magic stones, and the high-energy particles contained within them far surpassed that of ordinary magic stones.
For the sake of conversion, these three magic stones had already been calculated and cut. Each of them was worth exactly 100 ordinary magic stones.
Looking at the magic stones in front of him, Adil stretched out his hand and kept the three magic stones. He then raised his head to look at Grace.
