Leo said, "Wait, Wizard Bess. Although the environment does indeed help me use my Bloodline Ability, do you remember a prerequisite I mentioned before?"
"That is, I must have a certain understanding of the original research."
"If that cannot be done, then it will be difficult for me to serve you, Wizard Bess."
Upon hearing this, Bess's expression visibly darkened.
"Leo, this research contains the painstaking work of many years. It is truly difficult for me to hand it over to you."
Bess said, "I hope you can start from scratch and complete my research."
As Bess spoke, his Magical Pressure began to spread.
Leo felt as though what stood before him was a savage beast towering ten thousand zhang high.
However, Leo remained calm and composed as he said,
"I'm sorry, Wizard Bess. If you cannot provide me with part of the research, then I cannot help you obtain the result you want."
Leo was helpless about this as well.
It was not that he was unwilling to help Bess.
Nor did he wish to continue tangling with such an influential Formal Wizard as Bess.
But there was truly no way around it.
If Bess did not provide the research data, Leo would have no way to activate the Compendium Manual's ability.
Bess stared at Leo in silence.
His Magical Pressure placed immense pressure on Leo.
Bess suddenly said, "Leo, you should understand the conditions required to advance to a Formal Wizard very clearly, right?"
"Among them, you should also know very well about the news concerning Ink Gold."
"Now, there is only enough Ink Gold left for one Wizard."
"If you can help me complete this research, I can personally help you search for Ink Gold and place the last portion in your hands. What do you think?"
