"No!" Varga shook his head slightly to deny Connor's idea.
He then continued, "Black Rock Grass Essence is only a supplementary ingredient for the Mystical Energy Potion. It's not very precious. I have all the important main ingredients for the Mystical Energy Potion. Black Rock Grass Essence comes from Black Rock Grass, and Black Rock Grass is a very common herb that mainly treats stomach ailments. Basically, all the major pharmacies in Loen sell it."
"Although Black Rock Grass is very common, after a large amount of Black Rock Grass is processed and condensed by Apothecaries, the extracted Black Rock Grass Essence is a potion that has a wide range of uses in pharmaceutics. Therefore, it's very simple to buy Black Rock Grass, but it's very troublesome to obtain large quantities of Black Rock Grass!
"According to the Imperial Medicine Law, buying more than ten stalks of Black Rock Grass needs to be reported to the local Metropolitan Police Department. And if you buy more than thirty stalks of Black Rock Grass in Loen, the Church of the Storm will target you! Therefore, every time the organization supplies Black Rock Grass to the hospital, it takes a long time. There are only about fifty stalks left in the hospital, and not even a drop of Black Rock Grass Essence can be condensed! " Varga explained to Connor. Towards the end, Varga sighed softly, looking very helpless.
After carefully listening to Varga's description of Black Rock Grass, Connor subconsciously thought of Marguerite's peerlessly beautiful face. This made him, who was hugging Varga, have a strange expression. However, the shrewd Connor quickly concealed the strange expression on his face. He pretended to think for a moment and asked Varga, "How many stalks of Black Rock Grass are needed to condense enough Black Rock Grass Essence to refine the Mystical Energy Potion?"
"At my current level, I need about a hundred stalks of Black Rock Grass to condense a drop of Black Rock Grass Essence. If I want to refine the Mystical Energy Potion, I need about five drops of Black Rock Grass Essence!" Varga, who didn't notice the change in Connor's expression, was still seriously considering for his lover.
"Five hundred stalks?" After pondering for a moment, Connor revealed a confident smile under Varga's gaze. He gently patted Varga's smooth back and promised, "Don't worry, I'll get it!"
Varga didn't seem to believe Connor's confidence. She said with concern, "Connor, if it's hard to get, don't take the risk. Two months isn't a long time. Besides, if you don't have the Black Rock Grass Essence, I can use other substitutes to refine the Mystical Energy Potion!"
"Ha-ha-ha …" Feeling Varga's sincere concern for him, Connor, who had a heart of stone, couldn't help but feel touched. Although he didn't know much about pharmaceutics, he knew the difference between the original and the substitutes. The effect of the Mystical Energy Potion that was made with substitutes would definitely be worse than the original. The effect of the original Mystical Energy Potion depended on one's luck.
Connor lovingly rubbed Varga's little nose in his arms and whispered in her ear, "I have my own channel. I've worked with this channel for a long time. It's always been very safe and stable."
Seeing that Connor was so confident about his channel, Varga, who knew Connor's cautious personality, felt less worried. She hesitated for a while, then finally decided to ask Connor, "Connor, you joined the Secret Society before I did. Do you know if there are any other spiritual-type wizards in the Secret Society who need to break through to the Supreme Wizard Apprentice level?"
Hearing Varga's words, Connor didn't understand what Varga meant at first. He said without thinking, "My professor didn't let me have too much contact with the Secret Society, but according to the members I've met, only my professor and I are spiritual-type wizards …" A glint of light flashed in Connor's eyes as he realized why Varga asked this question. He immediately lowered his head to look at Varga in his arms.
Under Connor's questioning gaze, Varga nodded gently, indicating that Connor was thinking the same thing as her. She then whispered, "We're only responsible for making potions. The Secret Society never tells me who to give them to. It's the same for this Spring of Spirit."
"Spring of Spirit … Spring of Spirit …" Connor squinted his eyes and began to repeat this word in a low voice. If Varga hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have realized it. In the Wizard World, a spiritual-type wizard like himself was extremely rare. Ever since Connor Ferguson became a wizard, he had seen more than a hundred wizards. However, other than himself and Reyes, he had never seen another spiritual-type wizard. That was how rare spiritual-type wizards were.
Varga had just said that the effect of the Spring of Spirit potion was to help a spiritual-type intermediate wizard apprentice break through to become an advanced wizard apprentice. There were very few spiritual-type wizards in the Wizard World to begin with, and then it was limited to spiritual-type intermediate wizard apprentices. Considering the background of the Secret Society, Connor felt that the user of the Spring of Spirit potion that the Secret Society asked Varga to make was most likely him — Connor Ferguson!
"Connor, the bottle of Spring of Spirit that I made, even if I gave it to you, it might be a kind gesture from the Secret Society. They want to help you become an advanced wizard apprentice!" Seeing Connor's face darkened, Varga tried to persuade him.
"It's a blessing, not a curse. If it's a curse, you can't avoid it …" After repeating this sentence in his mind, in order not to worry Valga, Conner forced out a smile and nodded towards Valga with an affirmative look.
… ….
… ….
Three weeks later, Loen East District, Lander Street, apartment 16.
Sitting in the quiet room of his home, Connor held the Dark Source Stone in his hand and closed his eyes. He was in deep meditation. That day in the safe house, after confirming with Varga which potion to help him break through, Connor returned to his apartment and began to meditate in isolation to sense the law of darkness in the Dark Source Stone. This isolation lasted for three weeks. During these three weeks, he stayed in his apartment and didn't take a step out of his apartment.
According to Connor's plan, now was almost the time for him to use the Dark Source Stone to increase his understanding of the law of darkness and break through to become an advanced wizard apprentice!
