Chapter 50: The Origin of Arcanists

"Ding, you have successfully brewed a high-quality Blood-Replenishing Potion. Alchemy level +1, current level: 99."

The reaction of the potion's raw solution slowly subsided, transforming into the final stabilized product.

With an 80% completion rate, the excellent-quality potion was highly competitive in the market.

Achieving higher quality was possible, but not particularly meaningful—Matthew was clear that alchemy and potions were merely tools.

He divided the refined potion into 40 bottles, having brewed a total of 80 bottles today.

Twenty bottles were stored as military supplies, while the remaining 60 would be sold as goods.

"Adam Smith needs to arrive soon..."

Matthew glanced at the two recovering trolls. These two managed to survive, but the alchemical materials were running low.

After tidying up the lab, Matthew sent the two trolls away and placed the sleeping Yaya among a pile of rare metal ores.

"She's going to sleep for two whole weeks this time. Hopefully, after this transformation, Yaya will be able to speak clearly."

Matthew meticulously documented Yaya's reactions and changes, as this would be a very important and long-term research subject.

In the adjacent room, Liana had already fallen asleep. Matthew observed her mother, Soren, but there were no signs of any bloodline anomalies or information from her.

"Spontaneous mutation?"

He created a file for Liana as well before heading to the basement, which the former lord had used as a training area. He set up a few warning spells.

0-Level Spell: Light!

0-Level Spell: Clean!

The basement became bright and fresh, reflecting Matthew's tall and slender frame.

He pulled out a hardwood bed, spread a blanket over it, and lay down, clearing his mind of distractions and slowly closing his eyes.

His consciousness entered his body, and Matthew "saw" a dense array of glowing dots—elements that made up all things.

Some elements were steady and heavy, some lively and energetic, others fiery and passionate, and still others gentle and fluid.

The purpose of a caster's meditation was to train their mental power so that its frequency gradually aligned with the surrounding elements.

The goal was to incorporate more elements into the caster's essence, slowly forming a unified whole centered around the soul.

This process strengthened the soul, allowing it to bear more mental power.

Once this step was completed, using mental power to control and manipulate elements or objects marked the beginning of a mage's journey.

However, reaching this point only made one a 0-level apprentice mage.

To progress further and truly step onto the path of a mage,

One had to continuously strengthen the soul, train mental power, and absorb and establish more mana nodes.

The tangible requirement was learning at least five 0-level spells!

Once the soul was sufficiently strong and stable, and mental power—or mana—was abundant, one could attempt to construct a more powerful and stable mana structure and model that could channel more elements.
