Chapter Fifty

In Lynn's dormitory at the Potion Garden, everything returned to calm.

The scent of potions and spiritual fluctuations that had filled the air gradually dissipated, and Lynn's cultivation finally came to an end.

After three days of secluded cultivation, he successfully stabilized his Level 3 Wizard Apprentice realm.

At this moment, Lynn's spiritual power had reached 25 points, meeting the standard threshold for a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice.

With such immense spiritual power, even a Zero-Ring Wizardry without any enhancement, like the Daze Spell, could probably directly kill ordinary people through spiritual shock.

However, Lynn's spiritual power was currently restricted to five points, and the wizardry he could use was limited accordingly. In actual casting terms, he could probably only cast five Ice Arrows.

Even so, this was still an enormous improvement for someone who had just broken through.

After all, he had previously been able to cast at most two Ice Arrows.

What excited him even more was that he had already seen the dawn ahead.

He had overcome the hurdle of becoming a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice.

Next, as long as he became an Official Wizard, he could completely break free of the Seed of Life's restrictions, reap the fruit produced when the Seed of Life blossomed, gain a second Permanent Spell Mark, and advance to a higher wizarding realm.

"Official Wizard... it was time to start preparing for it."

A trace of determination flashed through Lynn's eyes as he murmured to himself.

As a certain senior in the wizarding world once said, "An apprentice who does not want to become a wizard is not a good apprentice."

Becoming an Official Wizard was the ultimate goal of every apprentice, but the path to that realm was destined to be far from smooth.

Level 3 Wizard Apprentice was merely a starting point for Lynn. Next, he would make thorough preparations to break through the barrier to becoming an Official Wizard.

"First, I need to improve my potion-making skills, then finish those three incomplete potions."

Lynn's gaze was resolute. He had long since formed a detailed plan in his heart.

If other Wizard Apprentices possessed incomplete potions, they might choose to sell them to others or spend a fortune to hire someone to repair them.

But Lynn was different. He had his own talent and believed that by improving his potion-making skills, he could repair those three potions and perhaps even turn them into his own strength.

Originally, Lynn had thought that the great wizard Helen would likely summon him, since he had personally participated in the battle in the Emerald Island Forest and knew quite a bit about the entire incident.

Yet strangely, the great wizard Helen seemed to have completely forgotten about him and had never come looking for him.

Although he could not help feeling somewhat puzzled, Lynn was happy to enjoy the peace and quiet.

Lynn did not care about the situation in the Emerald Island Forest.

Even though the Black Dragon Witch had vanished and the Furnace Army had been defeated, what did that have to do with him? The Furnace was not his home.

Although he had participated in the battle, it had only been a dispute between wizards. He was merely one apprentice among them.

Even if the sky fell, there would always be taller wizards to hold it up.

The affairs of the Emerald Island Forest should be handled by the great wizard Helen and the other Level 3 Wizards. There was absolutely no need for Lynn to interfere.

After the contractual restrictions were lifted, Lynn decided that he would no longer get involved in the Furnace's war.

If he had to name one thing he cared about, it was hoping that Sonia and Colin would remain safe.

After all, he had a fairly good relationship with both of them, so Lynn naturally hoped they would get through this safely.

But even so, he would only pray for them.

Going to the battlefield himself to rescue them was clearly unrealistic.

Lynn's thoughts gradually returned to his own cultivation.

He wanted to improve his potion-making skills. Although he had the support of his talent, he knew that merely thinking about it would never improve his brewing techniques.

Brewing potions required not only solid theoretical knowledge, but also unique methods and practical experience.

Empty theorizing could never allow one to grasp true potion-making techniques.

Fortunately, as a member of the Potion Garden, Lynn knew that as long as he could pass the assessment and enter the Potion Garden's Core Area, he would gain access to more advanced potion-making techniques.

Therefore, Lynn knew that it was time to get back to work!

"With such a proactive and hardworking employee like me, the Furnace should be secretly laughing..."

Lynn laughed at himself, then decided to find Remy and learn about the Potion Garden's recent situation.

The Potion Garden remained spacious and silent, as though there was not a trace of life within it.

Lynn made his way familiarly to the outer greenhouses of the Potion Garden, knowing that this was where apprentices cultivated extraordinary plants.

After a period of time, the apprentices would switch to another greenhouse and continue with new cultivation assignments.

Thus, he went directly to find one of the supervisors responsible for apprentice affairs.

However, the answer he received surprised Lynn.

Remy had actually already left the greenhouses and entered the Potion Garden's Core Area.

This change left Lynn slightly stunned.

Remy, a First-Level Wizard Apprentice, had actually been able to enter the Potion Garden's Core Area? Lynn found it quite astonishing.

"How did he get in? I remember Remy only being a First-Level Wizard Apprentice, right?" Lynn could not help asking.

The supervisor frowned, clearly not expecting the question either. He shook his head. "I don't know either. Anyway, he passed the assessment..."

After hesitating for a moment, he added, "Lynn, when will you be back? After Remy left, there haven't been enough people to handle the potion maintenance work. We need you now..."

Lynn smiled faintly. "Lady Helen may still need me. I'm afraid it will have to wait a while longer..."

Lynn directly borrowed Helen's authority. Although he wanted to return, he obviously could not simply come back to maintain potions.

Although he wanted to return, he clearly could not immediately start tending to potions.

If Remy could enter the Core Area directly, then why could he not?

The supervisor was rendered speechless upon hearing this. He did not know who Lady Helen was, but judging from Lynn's words, she was most likely an Official Wizard.

Naturally, he could not risk offending an Official Wizard, so he could only watch Lynn leave.

The Potion Garden was enormous. The outer section consisted of vast greenhouse areas, while the inner section contained towering clusters of buildings.

Connecting the two was a garden walkway lined with all manner of strange flowers.

Lynn did not rush into the Core Area. Instead, he chose to quietly wait along the unavoidable path through the connecting garden walkway.

After all, he could not enter the Core Area directly at the moment, but if he could wait for Remy to leave, he might have a chance to investigate the situation.

He came here during the lunch break, waiting for Remy's figure to appear.

As time passed, Lynn saw one wizard-robed figure after another emerge from the Core Area and head toward the outside of the Potion Garden.

Lynn stood there looking quite conspicuous, but he had no intention of playing the fool to hide his strength. He directly released the aura of a Level 3 Wizard Apprentice.

Even if some people were puzzled, they had no desire to provoke this unfamiliar Level 3 apprentice, so no one disturbed Lynn.
