After a while, Angus finally put down the magnifying glass, smacking his lips as he carefully savored the taste of the materials.
As a renowned Alchemist, he was quite obsessed with this aspect. Suddenly seeing such excellent materials, how could he not be excited?
"I apologize for my behavior; every time I see good materials, I act this way. The quality of these Lava Hearts is excellent. I've calculated that, along with other materials, I can not only craft a staff for you but also create a ring, two Bracers, and a Belt. What do you think?
However, you should know the rules of an Alchemist. I will take three of the Lava Hearts as my fee. Also, if any problems arise during the process, I won't be responsible for any losses."
Daniel nodded; this was only fair. In fact, as an Alchemist himself, Daniel would also take a thirty percent cut of any materials brought to him.
Moreover, if something went wrong and the potion failed to brew, the other party could only blame their own bad luck and could not use it as an excuse to trouble him.
That's just how it is; who told them they couldn't brew potions?
But now that he was the one seeking help, it turned out that Angus was the one with the upper hand.
After thinking for a moment, he cautiously said, "Your request is very reasonable. However, after obtaining the Lava Hearts, I've already considered how to utilize them and designed a specific plan based on my situation to maximize the effectiveness of the Lava Hearts."
Angus frowned slightly; was this a sign of distrust?
"That's great! It saves me time on designing. Let me see how you've planned it out."
Daniel extended his index finger, where a faint blue flame flickered. Angus was greatly surprised; he recognized this method as one that utilized Mental Power.
A wizard's Mental Power is powerful enough to directly transmit knowledge into another person's mind.
However, a Wizard Apprentice lacks that ability and can only rely on such methods.
He extended his index finger and tapped on it, and in an instant, streams of information flowed into his mind.
Angus took a look and exclaimed, "What a clever design! I've never seen such an exquisite design before. The staff, Bracers, Belt, and boots are all in different places, yet they are interconnected. It's truly remarkable. Who designed this?"
"I designed it myself; I hope it doesn't make you laugh. I wonder how long it will take to refine it."
Angus shook his head, "There's no way around it. Because your design is too clever, it has already exceeded the capabilities of a Wizard Apprentice. Perhaps only a Formal Wizard who specializes in Alchemy could refine it."
"Ah!"
Daniel was stunned. This set of equipment was specifically designed based on Reirfu's gear, perfectly suited to his own abilities while also considering future development.
He never expected that due to its intricate design and high requirements, it couldn't be refined.
Feeling somewhat unwilling, he asked, "No way! A Wizard Seed I know has equipment that is very exquisite. If even you can't refine it in the academy, who else can?"
"I don't know, but you can try looking at other academies. As for our academy, don't bother; there's no one who can surpass me."
When he said this, Angus's tone was filled with confidence; he clearly had great faith in his own abilities. He didn't even think there was anyone in other academies who could surpass him; he was just saying that casually.
Unexpectedly, this sparked an idea in Daniel. He had previously talked with Reirfu, who had told him that the set of Magical Items he possessed was not refined by apprentices within the academy.
Given the abilities of those fools, there might be a few who were quite good, but that was only relative to other apprentices; they fell short compared to a Wizard Seed.
He had specifically sought out a Wizard Seed who specialized in Alchemy, spending a considerable amount to have them refine it.
"Thank you for your guidance, senior. I'll check other academies. If no one can do it, I'll definitely ask for your help."
"Okay."
Once Daniel left, Angus immediately turned pale, feeling frustrated as he searched for someone else in other academies who would take him seriously.
If it were anyone else, he would have kicked them out long ago. Even Wizard Seed wouldn't be exempt; no one could look down on his abilities.
Unfortunately, when it came to Daniel, he couldn't act recklessly. After all, Daniel was also one of the most renowned Pharmacists, and he would need to buy various potions from him in the future. If he made an enemy of him, where would he find such a skilled Pharmacist?
The hardest thing in the world is when you find yourself in need of someone else.
Daniel contacted Reirfu again, hoping to find someone to forge a set of equipment, which made Reirfu burst into laughter.
"Alright, I'll ask around for you, but I can't guarantee that he'll accept your commission. You know how Alchemists can be; they have such peculiar temperaments. Who knows if he'll take a liking to you."
"Okay, thank you very much."
After a short while, Reirfu got back to him.
"I asked around; that guy is currently busy forging equipment for someone else. His orders are backed up for three years already, so forget about getting him to forge anything for you. If it really doesn't work out, I'll think of another way and ask again, but I can't promise you'll find another Alchemist as skilled as him."
"Then forget it; I'll figure something out myself. I can't keep bothering you."
The two chatted for a while before disconnecting. Daniel couldn't help but frown. He truly didn't know where to look for another Alchemist.
Angus might be a bit eccentric, but he was also recognized as the strongest Alchemist in the academy.
If even he couldn't guarantee that he could create what was needed, then in other academies, even if there were stronger ones, their numbers were pitifully few. Daniel really didn't have the confidence to ask them for help in forging equipment.
Alchemist are all a bunch of masters, and anyone who encounters them must serve them well, Especially those who are almost the best in their field; who knows what strange quirks they might have.
If they refuse to refine for you, then so be it. Even if you get scolded harshly, you still have to greet them with a smile.
There’s no choice; after all, they hold the skills. If you offend them, they can easily make things difficult for you.
If the materials are harsh and the refining fails, you won't even have a way to argue back or demand compensation.
Is it only possible to settle for second best and design a set of slightly inferior equipment for Angus to refine?
But Daniel doesn't want that. During the apprentice stage, there is Wizard Seed, but who knows if there will be similar opportunities in the Formal Wizard stage.
Just thinking about the benefits of being a Wizard Seed makes Daniel drool. He wants to fight for something during the wizard stage as well. If he shrinks back at the first sign of trouble, what's the point of competing? He might as well give up and let someone else take it.
With determination, he grits his teeth; it's just Alchemy. At worst, he can learn it himself and refine on his own.
He is capable of learning; if he sets his mind to it, there's nothing he can't master.
Anyway, his Mental Power is progressing too quickly and is somewhat unstable, so he needs to slow down temporarily. Taking this time to learn Alchemy wouldn't be a bad idea either.
