After working tirelessly for six or seven hours, Daniel finally completed the potion. As he dragged his exhausted body out of the alchemy room, he immediately earned the admiration of everyone around him; such a skilled Pharmacist was indeed rare.
Unfortunately, they no longer had any materials left. Otherwise, they would have definitely entrusted him with more potions, and who knows if there would be another opportunity for collaboration in the future.
After exchanging a few forced words with them, Daniel returned to his room to rest.
"This time, Daniel has expended a lot of energy in crafting the potion. Send a message that no one is to disturb his rest. Also, go to the storeroom and take out ten grams of Nine Star Jade Dew from my collection and send it to him."
Barrett was taken aback; Nine Star Jade Dew was a precious item for restoring energy, refined from the essence of Empty Jade Dew. Even Arnold usually hesitated to use it, so it was surprising that he was willing to give it to someone else now.
"Isn't this too valuable? Why not send something else?"
Arnold also felt reluctant but decided to give it to Daniel for future considerations as an investment.
"You will go as instructed. We owe him quite a bit this time. Tomorrow, when we lay in ambush, we will need his help, so we must ensure he recovers."
Barrett nodded in agreement.
Little did they know that the moment Daniel returned to his room, he no longer appeared tired at all. Although he had crafted several potions this time, it hadn't taken much time. If not for wanting to avoid drawing attention, he could have produced them all at once.
Just then, a series of loud knocks echoed at the door. Daniel quickly put on an act of exhaustion and opened the door.
Barrett handed him a vial containing the potion in a test tube.
Looking at the blue potion that resembled countless stars, Daniel felt a stir in his heart; this was clearly Nine Star Jade Dew.
"Hello, this is Nine Star Jade Dew that Arnold specifically asked me to bring to you. It's a holy item for restoring energy."
"Thank you, please send my regards to Arnold."
Daniel was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected such an unexpected gain. Not bad, not bad. If he received a few more of these, he would be set for life.
The other party chatted with him briefly, advising him to rest well and mentioning that they would ambush together tomorrow before taking their leave.
By the next day, Barrett came to call Daniel. The two of them arrived at the villa, and Daniel noticed that this time they had truly brought everyone along. Aside from the four who had been left after he killed the others last time, even the three remaining Wizard Apprentices had come along. No one was left in Vita City.
This was perfect for him to catch them all at once. As long as he set up his methods properly, he wasn't worried about them leaking any information.
Seeing them approach, Arnold asked with concern, "Daniel, how have you been resting? Are you ready?"
"Thank you for your concern; I am ready. As soon as they appear, I will definitely give them a surprise."
Daniel confidently assured him, though he couldn't help but wonder what expression they would have if they knew he was the person they were looking for.
"That's good. Including you, we have a total of eight people, so I plan to split into four teams. Daniel, since you're familiar with Barrett, you two will be one team. I'll take another person, and the remaining four will split into two teams. I've already informed the servants that we are going into seclusion and not to disturb us. Our plans should not leak out."
Seeing that he had everything arranged, Daniel had no reason to object and could only agree.
Soon, everyone quietly left Vita City in order, mingling with the crowd.
On the way, Barrett introduced Lava Secret Realm to him.
The roads in Lava Secret Realm are winding and complex, with numerous Fire Element creatures and dense Magma, making it a stronghold for Fire Element warriors.
Once the opponent escapes inside, leveraging the thick fire elements there, the power of Fire Magic would be greatly amplified, making it very easy to counterattack. Therefore, they planned to ambush at the entrance.
Although the roads in Lava Secret Realm are winding, many lead to dead ends. There are only three true entrances. Two of these entrances took them hundreds of years to explore and have long been blocked, with Magic Array set up above them, making them difficult to discover.
Thus, if the Flame Demon wants to enter the Lava Secret Realm, they can only use the largest entrance. At the cave entrance, there is a Magic Array set up by the historical guardians of Vita City, making it impossible to enter silently.
This time, Arnold would bring a Second-Level Wizard Apprentice into the cave to find a place to ambush while the six of them split into three groups to lie in wait outside. As soon as the Flame Demon enters, the cave's Magic Array will sound an alarm. At that point, all six of them will rush in together, with Arnold blocking the way in front. A mere Second-Level Wizard Apprentice, even if equipped fully at peak level three, would only meet death if trapped inside by them.
Daniel listened in shock; this was an ambush setup. Even a fully equipped peak-level three wizard would only face death if surrounded inside.
Fortunately, he was aware of their strategy; otherwise, he would have had no way to escape.
Barrett handed Daniel a Communicator. "The fire element aura inside Lava Secret Realm is violent; you must use special methods to communicate. Make sure you don’t lose it. You should know how to use this kind of Communicator, right?"
Daniel waved his hand. "Don't worry; I can use it."
Though he said that, he had never seen one before. However, he had comprehensive knowledge reserves and observed it closely while holding it. There were functions for detecting Magic Array, launching Magic Array, hmm, what is this for?
Daniel suddenly saw something he had never encountered before. After a moment of comparison with the chip, he was astonished to discover that it was used for confirmation, specifically for bloodline verification.
Only a drop of blood was needed for the Communicator to function. Once the owner died, the Communicator would self-destruct as well. It was indeed a good design, but it conflicted with his plans; it seemed he needed to adjust his strategy.
Daniel then infused magic into the Communicator, where he saw seven shining stars, one of which was flickering with a golden light—undoubtedly Arnold. The one closest to him should be Barrett.
However, in the eyes of the other party, Daniel merely paused for a moment before dropping a drop of blood onto it for verification. It appeared very natural, without any issues. It was as if he had used the communicator many times before and was already accustomed to it.
"Great, let's hurry up. We must find him and absolutely cannot let him escape."
"Of course, I also want to experience his Endless Fireball. I've traveled to so many places, even underground, and have never seen such a formidable Second-Level Wizard Apprentice. If we encounter him first, don't act immediately; let me have a go first."
"Sure, do as you wish."
The two quickly arrived at the outskirts of the Lava Secret Realm. Barrett pointed to a low mountain ahead. "The center of this mountain is the Lava Secret Realm. Let's be cautious and not let him notice us."
He then climbed a tree and used magic to obscure himself. In Daniel's eyes, he had completely vanished. Daniel did not hesitate either and climbed up another tree to hide.
Both were Wizard Apprentices, so they naturally did not need to rest like ordinary people. They stayed in the trees for three rounds, taking turns observing their surroundings, but the Flame Demon still had not appeared.
Barrett frowned and couldn't help but say, "Why hasn't he shown up yet? Logically, once he learns about the Lava Heart, he should come rushing over. For a Fire Elemental Wizard, no one can resist the temptation of the Lava Heart."
"Let's wait a bit longer; perhaps he hasn't received the news yet."
Daniel comforted him, but inwardly he was complaining, "I'm right in front of you. It would be strange if you could find another me."
"By the way, do you really have a Raging Demon Bear with the strength of a Third-Level Wizard Apprentice?"
"Yes, if it weren't for the Raging Demon Bear, Valk wouldn't have died."
"Who is lying in ambush to the northwest? I think I saw a Raging Demon Bear sneaking over there."
Barrett's expression changed. "It's Calvin and Enoch. Damn it, how did that Flame Demon find out? We need to hurry; we can't let them succeed."
Before Daniel could say anything, Barrett had already jumped down from the tree and rushed toward the northwest. He didn't notice the sly smile on Daniel's face.
Although they had reluctantly taken him in, they hadn't consulted him at all about such a secret ambush. The only reason they invited him was that they wanted him to act as a thug based on his fabricated strength.
Apart from Arnold and the other two who entered the Lava Secret Realm, no one else knew where they were, which clearly did not align with Daniel's calculations.
To this end, he didn't hesitate to send the Raging Demon Bear ahead to scout. Sure enough, with just a light test, Barrett revealed his true intentions.
