Chapter 83 Mental Energy 20, Advanced Potions Compendium Included
Hughes stood between Leo and Lexus, looking left and right.
Leo was in pain, so when he walked, it was like being electrocuted; after a few steps, his whole body would stiffen.
Lexus, on the other hand, was anemic, so its steps were unsteady, making it look like it was walking in an S-shape.
Hughes stroked his chin and said with certainty, "Seeing the two of you like this, I've decided that from now on, when I look for potions, I definitely won't drink the White Elf Mana Growth Potion or the Night Spirit Strengthening Potion."
Leo ignored him; the pain was still there.
Leo's stiffness from taking a few steps didn't fully recover until nightfall.
A day had passed since he drank the medicine, and the intense pain had gradually subsided.
It was night, before dawn, when Leo opened his eyes.
After the pain gradually subsided last night, Leo fell asleep without realizing it.
Leo reassessed his physical condition and found that the pain was still there, but after the intensity decreased, it turned into a pleasurable sensation, making it easy for his body and mind to relax.
After getting used to his current state, Leo immediately began his daily practice of basic meditation.
After reaching the limit of his daily meditation practice, Leo ended his meditation session.
Feeling the spiritual energy at this moment, Leo couldn't help but smile.
After taking the Night Spirit Consolidation Potion, Leo's mental energy will approach a more stable state within a few days.
This stable state allowed Leo's mental energy to increase at a significantly faster rate.
In just two days, Leo's mental energy reached a mere 20 points.
The residual effects of the drug were still working, and Leo felt that he could continue to increase his mental energy by 1 or 2 points.
However, while the enhancement of mental energy from the potion is good during the night, the effects of mental radiation are also greater.
Leo glanced at the mental radiation tester on his right wrist.
It has now been raised to 45 points.
It increased mental radiation by a full 7 points.
Leo originally thought that the spiritual radiation boost from high-quality potions wouldn't be significant.
But after only two bottles of the potion, Leo's mental radiation level was already close to 50.
20 points is, according to Wizard Mord, a watershed moment in a third-rate wizard apprentice's learning ability.
After consolidating his mental energy, Leo opened the Book of Knowledge.
The content is also advanced potion-making.
Leo will start by looking at the front.
The advanced potion-making section consists of 120 pages.
Leo had only read less than ten pages in the previous two nights.
Now, as Leo rewatches the previous content, he has a sudden realization.
Previously, Leo had forcibly memorized a lot of content but hadn't understood it. Now, he only needed to glance at it briefly to understand it.
When Leo came across content he hadn't read before, absorbing the new information became much easier and simpler.
As the sky grew brighter, Leo had already turned all 120 pages.
This reading speed far surpasses what it was before.
As Leo finished reading Advanced Potions, a gentle prompt appeared in his mind.
"Found a low-quality advanced potion-making illustration. Would you like to add it?"
Leo exhaled a breath of stale air.

'Consumes 50 Refinement Points'

Leo closed the book.
With the encyclopedia, Leo can continue learning advanced potion-making on his own even if he doesn't renew his subscription to the advanced potion-making books.
Leo unlocks the Book of Knowledge and begins studying the Illustrated Handbook.
Leo entered a wondrous, first-person perspective video, as if he were experiencing it firsthand.
Through the memory of images, the more superficial parts of advanced potion-making are gradually understood and can be applied in new ways, as the body reacts.
When Leo became so engrossed in it that he even forgot about the spell screen he watched every day.
The sky gradually brightened.
A gentle notification sound appeared in Leo's mind.
Mastering Inferior Quality Advanced Potion Technique grants 50 Refinement Points.
'Consumes 100 Refinement Points'
[Advanced Potions]
Quality: Excellent
Function: Contains advanced knowledge of potion-making.

After your mental energy reaches 20 points.
Leo was sensing his own condition.
He felt that his learning ability had come naturally, reaching the speed at which he learned basic potions in his early wizarding years.
With the help of this illustrated manual, Leo felt that even if he couldn't raise his mental energy to 50 points, he should be able to master advanced potion-making of ordinary quality within one or two weeks.
Andrei's Research Lab
As Leo arrived at the second group and prepared to begin sorting, Wizard Ellis, who was in charge of checking on his work, asked, "Leo, how are you feeling today?"
"There's still some impact, but it's no longer a major concern."
Leo said with a smile, and then proved his point with facts.
The sorting work was completed at a speed that was no less than, and even faster than, that of the previous few days.
Ellis confirmed Leo's sorting work.
He gave Leo a thumbs up and said, "Great job, Leo. That's even faster than before."
"It should be the result of increased mental energy after taking the medication these past few days."
Leo said with a smile, "However, I think there are still some areas where we could have done better."
"Alright, stop being modest, hurry up and go to Wizard Mord's place."
Leo said, "Wizard Ellis, if it's convenient, I wonder if I could see the potion recipe?"
"That's not a problem," Ellis said. "But you should still talk to Wizard Mord; she's in charge of this."
Leo found the wizard Mord and explained his request.
Upon hearing this, Wizard Mord straightened her messy hair, her right hand, still bearing the herb stains, leaving a few spots on her hair, but she didn't seem to care at all.
Wizard Mord said, "Sure, after all, you newbies need to look at the potion formulas anyway, otherwise you won't be able to write the data reports later."
"The special envoy in charge of our Esmond Gathering is Kelly, a wizard who has a certain hostile attitude towards those of us at the Esmond Gathering."
"We need to complete the lab's work in a more compliant manner than in the past."
"If your data report doesn't meet the standards, I'm afraid Kelly will immediately take action."
Leo never expected to hear the name Kelly from the wizard Mord.
But thinking about it, Leo didn't find it strange.
Kelly is in charge of the research lab focusing on potion wizardry.
Andrei's research lab naturally fell under Kelly's jurisdiction as well.
After receiving permission from Wizard Mord, Leo began to examine the data report.
However, in addition to Leo, there was also Lexus before the data report.
Leo asked, "Lexus, do you also want to see the data report?"
"Yes, Wizard Andre recommended that I first understand part of the data report, and then I need to write my own data report independently."
Then, Leo and Lexus said almost simultaneously, "Then you take a look first."
After they finished speaking, they looked at each other in surprise, then smiled at each other.
Leo said, "Then I'll turn to this part first."
Lexus pointed to the other side and said, "Then I'll look at this part first."
Having the experience from his time in the Yar Research Lab, Leo found it much easier to review these data reports.
Before long, a gentle notification sound appeared in Leo's mind.
"Found a low-quality Raven Mana Growth Potion illustration in the encyclopedia. Would you like to add it?"
