Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 412

Chapter 410 Transactions and Testing

Locke thought for a moment, then took out the formula for the Holy Spring Nectar potion that he was making with the help of the Plutarch family. The formula had been prepared long ago. After all, it had not changed much. It was just that the seven core magic plants of the Holy Spring Nectar potion needed to be upgraded.

Locke talked briefly with the half-dragon man, and he didn’t hold out much hope. After all, it was unlikely that anyone would be willing to exchange such a semi-finished formula.

I was just testing the waters. Otherwise, if I offered the best potion formula right at the beginning, the other party would easily lower the price or make things difficult for me.

After reading the recipe for the semi-finished product, the half-dragon’s previously calm eyes brightened with interest. “We can exchange.”

The half-dragon wizard extended his right hand, and immediately a formula and a contract fell into his hand, which he handed to Locke. “Sign the contract, and we’ve completed the deal.”

Locke checked the contract. After all, it was a contract made by a first-level contractor. If it was breached, it would be quite troublesome.

After confirming that everything was OK, he signed his name and completed the transaction.

Locke felt for a moment that the Quetzalcoatl Pavilion’s deal was a bit too generous. “Aren’t there any restrictions on my secondary trading of the formula? Besides, the formula just now was only a semi-finished product.”

After hearing the Holy Spring Nectar formula, the half-dragon wizard expressed more emotion towards Locke. “There’s no need to restrict secondary transactions. We’re trading one formula for another. It’s an equal transaction. According to the contract, we’re trading the right to use the formula, the right to teach it, and the right to sell it.”

“You can invite any wizard to trade the Sun Potion formula. It doesn’t matter.”

Locke had a strange look on his face, and that made the matter seem even stranger.

Because the improved version of the Holy Spring Nectar Potion formula that he came up with is basically still at a stage where it only has ideas but not many specific steps.

The half-dragon wizard glanced at Locke and said, “Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion collects ideas, not specific formulas. We value ideas over specific formulas. The idea for the formula you provided is very rare. It utilizes the methods of a breeder to optimize an existing potion formula and make some minor adjustments to the auxiliary ingredients.”

“This gives us, the Feathered Serpent Ancient Pavilion, a possibility.”

“For this possibility, paying a mere Sun Potion formula is already worth it.”

The half-dragon wizard wrote his name on the formula he had traded from Locke, then turned around, walked to the table, and put it into a device similar to a shredder.

The gear mechanism of the shredder began to rotate and shred the paper. Then the shredded paper decomposed into magical light and went away along a certain energy in the void.

Alicia said to Locke, “That’s the Quetzalcoatl Pavilion’s light transmitter. It functions in the same way as the Hurricane Eye Array Magic Gate of the White Wizard Association’s Dispatching Department. The only difference is that one converts matter into information and transmits it to distant locations via magical winds. The light transmitter, on the other hand, shatters matter and uses the Void Light Spiritual Veins to transform it into light, which it then transmits using light magic.”

“Both approaches have their own advantages and disadvantages.”

“The optical transmitter relies on the Void Light Spiritual Network at the Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion headquarters. The cost of maintaining the Void Light Spiritual Network is extremely high, while the cost of the Hurricane Eye is slightly lower.”

Alicia whispered, “The Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion’s optical transmission system seems to have been operating at a loss, so it hasn’t been widely used. It’s only used internally by them.”

Locke nodded slightly. This indirectly showed the strong strength of the Quetzalcoatl Pavilion. It could actually build a light transmission machine with higher information transmission efficiency than the White Wizard Association.

How could one make so much money just by selling potion formulas?
Besides, the way the other party was selling it didn’t seem like they were selling potion formulas, they were just exchanging formulas for other formulas.

Locke was somewhat skeptical that the Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion would not make much money with its current business model.

I just don’t know what the Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion really wants.

However, this has little to do with me. As a potion master, I only need to make enough profit from these shops that are spread across various wizarding lands.

After the half-dragon wizard used the light transmitter to transmit the formula, the light transmitter soon received another letter.

The half-dragon wizard picked up the letter and read it quickly. Then he looked up at Locke and said, “Augustine, the Quetzalcoatl headquarters is very interested in the idea behind the potion you just sent. We have upgraded your membership privileges from ordinary to D-level.”

“Headquarters’ intention is that if your improved version of the Holy Spring Nectar Potion can really be made, you can bring it here for trading. We at the Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion will give you something that satisfies you.”

“In addition, if Alchemist Augustine is willing, can he refine some potions according to this list of materials? We at Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion will provide the formulas and materials, and we can deliver them within a month.”

“The potion you successfully prepared can be handed over to our Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion. You can come to our Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion to claim any additional materials you need.”

Locke took the list of materials handed over by the other party, glanced at it, and found the names of three common potions, namely sleeping potion, anger potion and blue potion.

These three potions are just ordinary first-ring potions and are not very difficult. The only problem is that these three potions correspond to poison potions, status-enhancing potions, and functional auxiliary potions.

Sleeping potion is a poison. Anyone who takes it will fall into a long sleep. Even a first-ring wizard will sleep for a whole month.

The Rage Potion is a status-enhancing potion. After taking it, you will become extremely angry, and the mana fluctuations will always remain at the highest peak, and as a result, your mana will become stronger out of thin air.

The blue potion is a functional auxiliary potion. After taking it, the body will turn blue and will be temporarily transformed into a djinn, with the power of the djinn to fulfill the wishes of others.

When some wizards encounter a difficult wizard from the School of Prophecy, they will take a blue potion to temporarily transform into a djinn, and use the djinn’s ability to fulfill people’s wishes to resist the magic of the School of Prophecy, or the magic of the School of Illusion and the School of Psychic. This is usually more effective.

These three potions are all considered common first-ring potions.

Locke instantly guessed what the other party meant.

This was a test. For some reason, after I took out the Holy Spring Nectar Potion, I attracted the interest of a big shot behind the Quetzalcoatl Pavilion.

Therefore, the other party gave such a test. It can be expected that if you can pass the test, it seems that you may be able to continue to upgrade your membership level in the Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion, which represents an equivalent improvement in the Quetzalcoatl Ancient Pavilion’s evaluation of you.

If I fail the test, the matter will probably end here.

“A month?” Locke pondered. “I have too many projects on hand, so it’s a bit late. But if you add in the learning convenience that the Rubik’s Cube has brought me, then I should be able to finish it in time.”

‘Besides, I can discuss Potions with Alicia and accelerate my progress.’

Locke nodded, “Okay, I can give it a try.”
