Chapter 89 Interior (Second Update)
Chapter 89
Time passed quietly in busyness and concentration, and Lynn had been back in the Potion Garden for seven days.
During this period, he was always careful to collect all the information from the Green Island Forest, for fear that his identity would be revealed.
However, after all kinds of information came out within seven days, Lin En realized that he was worrying too much.
He cleaned up any clues and covered up his whereabouts completely, making it almost impossible to find him.
The Forge did communicate with Astrid and took some actions.
Just from the surface actions, Lin En knew that the Furnace had issued a wanted order, offering a large sum of money for the two apprentices, and attached a picture.
Lin En looked at the picture and found that he looked very different from the person in the picture. Obviously, the witnesses around him did not recognize his true identity.
However, Lin En still had doubts. Colin's portrait was also among the two wanted apprentices. He didn't know where Colin was hiding on the fourth floor of the maze...
Apparently, Astrid hasn't discovered Colin yet, otherwise, Lynn's own identity would have been exposed long ago.
"Colin, I hope you can hold on..."
Lynn sighed quietly, but his stress did not decrease.
Although he had successfully concealed his identity, there was still a possible clue that would allow the Furnace to track him down.
That is the investigation of the deceased apprentice Riley, especially his acquaintances and enemies during his lifetime.
However, Riley has too many enemies and acquaintances, and it would probably take a lot of time to check them one by one, so the possibility of Lynn's identity being revealed is not great.
Even so, this is still a hidden danger he faces.
Lin En always remembered his goal, which was to complete the auxiliary potions as soon as possible and obtain enough military merits to solve the problem of the furnace contract.
If he settles the contract, he will be free.
If things don't go as he wishes, he can choose to escape instead of staying in the furnace like he is now.
"Moreover," Lin En whispered to himself, "According to the intelligence I have collected during this period, the number of people passing through the first three levels of the maze has gradually increased, and the number of people injured in the maze has also decreased... It seems that the difficulty has decreased."
His brows furrowed slightly, and suddenly, Lynn had a strange premonition.
The changes in the maze may be related to him.
After all, when he passed through the maze, he did not play by the rules at all. Instead, he took an extremely destructive approach and destroyed one maze after another.
Although he did not have the overall data, Lin En could only make his own guesses and judgments, so the latest data might also be related to the luck of the furnace apprentice and the randomness of the maze.
But no matter what, the current situation is still unclear and he cannot make an accurate judgment.
He shook his head, putting these thoughts aside for the moment.
Concentrate and continue to focus on the potion-making task at hand.
It was much more difficult to impact the auxiliary potion of a formal wizard than he had expected.
He originally thought that a week would be enough to complete it, but now it seems that there is still a long way to go to achieve the goal.
…………………………
On the other side, on the top floor of the core tower of the furnace, there is a magnificent hall.
The Master of the Forge and the Master of the White Heart Tower stood side by side, with organized materials and information scrolls piled in front of them.
"Recently, the number of apprentices who have passed the third-level maze has reached fifty. Compared to the past, the increase is really too much..."
The Master of the Furnace flipped through the records in his hand, his tone somewhat doubtful.
Upon hearing this, the White Heart Tower Master raised his eyebrows and asked thoughtfully:
“Is it because of the increase in sample size?”
Previously, the Master of the Forge had forced all apprentices to participate in the maze trial.
The increase in the number of apprentices may be one of the reasons for the increase in the pass rate.
The Master of the Forge shook his head, his eyes solemn. "Not entirely. The data shows that the number of apprentices injured in the first three levels of the maze has also decreased significantly. From the overall situation, the difficulty of the maze does seem to have decreased a lot."
At this point, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was low, as if he was thinking about something: "This is either the natural influence of the wizarding world on the 'landscape', or it is what Astrid mentioned..."
He stopped talking abruptly, as if he was intentionally avoiding something, and changed the subject: "However, no matter what the specific reason is, the more people who pass the first three levels, the better it will be for our plan."
The Lord of the Baixin Tower heard the hidden meaning of the Lord of the Furnace, and a strange light flashed in his eyes, but he did not delve into it.
He smiled calmly and changed his tone to ask, "Oh? So, are you ready to start?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The Master of the Furnace sneered, his eyes as dark as the abyss:
"Originally, I thought these useless apprentices would be trapped at the front line of the maze for a longer time, causing the plan to be delayed. However, the difficulty of the maze has been reduced, and the number of people who have passed the first three levels has increased. Now it can be said that the minimum requirement has been met..."
"Tsk tsk, I'm really looking forward to it." The White Heart Tower Master said with a hint of curiosity, "What does the interior of the legendary 'landscape' look like..."
There was a hint of desire for the unknown in his deep eyes, and his voice was low.
Even a fourth-level Morning Star wizard like him, who can conquer an entire plane, would stay away from the "landscape" area.
If this was not an unstable 'landscape', if the Lord of the Forge had not revealed everything he knew, and if the [landscape] had not been eroded by the power of the wizarding world, he would never have rashly attempted to enter.
…………………………
Time passed quietly like flowing water, and another seven days passed in a flash.
During this period of time, Lin En was always immersed in the world of potion making and was never distracted.
With only three incomplete bottles of auxiliary potions on hand, Lynn's margin for error was extremely low.
In order to ensure that the final completion was foolproof, he decided to first master the entire completion process thoroughly and not allow any mistakes to occur.
Because of this caution and persistence, Lin En spent half a month, relying on the talent of "God rewards hard work", constantly repeating and trying each step, and polishing the technique to near perfection.
Finally, on this day, Lynn pushed his proficiency in the last key step to its peak, and he was ready to try to complete the potion on this day! In order to ensure that he would not be disturbed throughout the process, Lynn spent points to rent a quiet and private laboratory.
Inside the laboratory, the air was so quiet that even the floating dust particles could be heard clearly.
On the table, three bottles of brown potions were neatly arranged, with rare ingredients for completing the potion placed next to them.
Lynn looked around and made sure everything was ready. He took a deep breath and calmed himself down completely.
"Come on, I have practiced every step to perfection..."
Lynn whispered to himself, his eyes determined as iron.
He picked up one of the bottles of brown potion, carefully opened the bottle that had been sealed for a long time, and slowly poured the potion into the beaker.
As the brown liquid flowed, a unique herbal fragrance emanated faintly in the laboratory.
