Deep Sea Kiss, Heath’s Guest Room, Reception Room.
In the middle of the room, there was a low table with two sofas on each side. Heath and Jackman were sitting on one of the sofas. On the table were two cups of steaming hot cocoa and some common snacks such as dried lizards and spider legs.
“Yawn!” Jackman yawned tiredly. He picked up the cocoa on the table, blew on the hot air, and took a sip. “My friend, I’m sorry to have left you hanging there for so long. Did Amy do anything wrong?”
Heath nodded. “She is an excellent Apprentice. She helped me a lot.”
Jackman smiled. “If you like it, I’ll give her to you as a small gift. How about it? There aren’t many toys like this.”
Heath shook his head. “Forget it.”
Then, he didn’t continue the topic. He looked around Jackman.
Compared to Jackman who looked a little miserable a few days ago, he had two black eye sockets and a pale face. He was yawning at all times, he looked dispirited.
Heath raised his eyebrows and asked, “How was it? Did your experiment go well?”
When he mentioned the experiment, Jackman’s expression became a little bitter. He smiled bitterly and said, “It didn’t go well. Vitality knowledge is still a bit too much for me now. A lot of knowledge isn’t enough.”
Heath said, “Sometimes if you can’t get over it, you have to stop and rest first. Maybe after a while, you’ll understand.”
Jackman smiled bitterly and said, “I want to, but time can’t wait for me. Wizard Heath should have heard of the Fruit of Life, right? It’s not easy to get it. It’s fifty years of life. It would be a pity if you missed it.”
The Fruit of Life was a fruit of life force in the Wizard World. It was mostly used at the Wizard level to increase a Wizard’s lifespan, and could extend the lifespan of a Wizard by fifty years at most.
This fruit had a special characteristic. It had a certain shelf life, and after the fruit matured, it would naturally fall to the ground. After a period of time, if it wasn’t used, it would gradually lose its medicinal properties. In the end, it would become an ordinary secular fruit and rot away.
It was actually a very troublesome thing for a Wizard to increase their vitality. Heath seemed to have it easy because his knowledge was broad enough. In addition, he had been lucky enough to obtain a set of knowledge that specialized in studying vitality.
He did not know who the author of the set of life science that was extracted from Viscount Leicester was, but the methods involved in increasing vitality were extremely outstanding and easy to achieve.
If he did not have that set of knowledge, Heath would definitely be like Jackman. In order to improve his vitality, he had to go through some messy experiments. Not only did he need to invest a lot of resources and energy, but it was also filled with danger…
Heath said, “Fruit of Life? That’s really a little troublesome… I think you’re still young. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future, right? If there’s no need, it’s better not to use the Fruit of Life.”
Fruit of Life was actually a very unstable material. Whether it was for experiments or concocting potions, the slightest carelessness would cause a backlash.
Jackman’s eyes lit up, and he said in surprise, “So, Heath, you even know about Fruit of Life?”
Heath nodded. “I’ve read about this kind of fruit in a pharmaceutics book before.”
But after a pause, he quickly added, “But I don’t know much about it. I just know some basic pharmacology. I heard that this thing is very dangerous.”
In fact, Viscount Leicester’s life science knowledge about the Fruit of Life had a detailed introduction, but Heath was not ready to expose his ability in this area. This knowledge was too complicated and rare. It would easily arouse suspicion.
No matter how talented one was, there should be a limit.
Jackman said with some disappointment, “That’s a pity. With your help, my experiment would be much easier.”
“Alright, let’s stop talking about the Fruit of Life. I came here today to find you because I have good news to inform you. My friend, my teacher’s meditation has ended, and he has heard about you. He has agreed to meet you.”
Jackman paused and added, “I also mentioned the Purple Coral to him. My teacher did not object to it. I think you might have a great chance.”
Heath’s eyes lit up.
The Purple Coral gave him a headache for a while. Seeing that the day of advancement was getting closer and closer, but he still could not get Sublimation Water, Heath was a little anxious.
Even so, Heath still put on a calm look and said, “Is that so? Then when can we meet?”
Jackman said, “Teacher just finished meditating and usually needs to rest for one to two weeks. These two weeks can be anytime. But I think it’s better for us to go earlier. Teacher’s schedule might be full in the future.”
Heath nodded. “Then, you make the decision.”
Jackman said, “How about tomorrow morning? I’ll tell Teacher. I’ll take you to visit him tomorrow morning.”
Heath said, “Okay.”
…
The next morning, Heath followed Jackman to his teacher’s residence.
It was not in the castle, or even on this floating island. It was on another floating island in the east of this sea area. They could only go there by boat.
Most of the Wizards in Deep Sea Kiss were like this. They did not live in the castle. Instead, they built their own Wizard towers in the surrounding areas for themselves and their Apprentices to live in. It was like a kingdom in a kingdom.
The castle was mainly left for the Apprentices and some Wizards who did not have the money to build Wizard towers to live in. Jackman was an example.
On the way, Heath heard Jackman briefly introduce his teacher.
He said that this teacher was an advanced-level Wizard. A Wizard at this level was definitely at the top level in a small place like Deep Sea Kiss, generally speaking, even if they were not a Wizard Master, they were still a core member who held the right to speak.
However, Jackman’s teacher was not like that. Although he was powerful, he was only a magic consultant in Deep Sea Kiss. He could be said to be a dispensable existence at the border.
The main reason was that this Wizard was not a Wizard trained by Deep Sea kiss. He did not even come from the Golden Islands, but from Faran in the middle of the continent.
He came here on a trip. For some reason, he was recruited by Deep Sea Kiss and became a magic consultant here.
Most of the Wizard organizations were vigilant towards those not trained by their own people. Therefore, even though this mentor had the strength of an advanced-level Wizard, he was still unable to enter the core level of power.
Splash! The sound of delicate water was heard.
The small boat slowly sailed into the depths of the sea.
Just like before, when they reached an area, the sea was naturally filled with a layer of fog. These days, Heath had gained more knowledge about this layer of fog. This was a high-level magic array that was placed under the sea. It was a combination of magic knowledge such as illusion, mind, and poison.
In addition to being able to hide a large area, it could also identify the person who entered it. Any malicious intent would immediately turn the fog into a deadly poison.
Soon, the white fog gradually dispersed.
At the same time, a different island appeared before Heath’s eyes….
