I Am Doing Daily Tasks in the Wizarding World

Upon returning home, Lynn entered the Alchemy Laboratory. Observing the Cavern Lifeblood Mushrooms on the experiment table, he realized there was only enough for one last experiment. “Not enough raw materials,” Lynn muttered.

Frowning, Lynn recalled how Borg had extensively purchased Cavern Lifeblood Mushrooms from various pharmacies in Bangor Port, nearly depleting their stock. Some pharmacies even took advantage of the demand to raise the price.

With practiced ease, Lynn spent an hour concocting the potion. As his proficiency increased, what once took two hours now required only half the time.

“Daily task completed: Experiment (1), Completed an experiment of extremely low difficulty.”

“Completion: Excellent (︾)”

“Reward: 20 general experience points, 2% progress in mutation studies.”

Excellent? Lynn’s raised an eyebrow.

Lynn looked at the completion evaluation flashing in the corner of his vision, feeling somewhat surprised. This was the first time he had received an excellent evaluation.

What could be the reason? Expanding the details of the “Excellent” rating, Lynn discovered that he had made only two minor errors, one related to a specific ingredient.contemporary romance

Perhaps it was related to the efficiency of the experiment? Lynn speculated inwardly.

Looking at the vial of reagent in his hand, Lynn took out a thorn seed from a nearby box. Tossing the seed into the reagent, tiny bubbles formed on its surface as the thorn seed sank to the bottom, creating a subtle reaction.

Lynn secured the vial of reagent on a stand, knowing it would take at least half a day to complete the mutation.

Plant seeds mutated faster than animals.

After tidying up the experiment table, Lynn left the room. He descended to the adjacent room and walked into the neighboring courtyard.

Lauren emerged from the house just as Lynn approached. “I hope I didn’t disturb you,” Lynn said.

“Not at all. Bowa’s already asleep,” Lauren replied with a silly grin.

Since Lauren personally went to find Bowa last time, Lynn had no idea what transpired between the couple, but Bowa moved in with Lauren, just as she had mentioned. Even with Lauren’s current appearance, she showed no signs of repulsion.

“Could your wife help buy some medicinal materials tomorrow if she’s available?” Lynn inquired.

“Bowa has always been grateful to you, Master. She won’t refuse,” Lauren replied.

“In addition, there are these seven types of herbs and ores. Check if they are available as well,” Lynn added, listing a few more materials.

As Lynn’s knowledge of mutation studies continued to progress, he discovered several new potions he could create. His understanding of mutation studies deepened, but many materials for the new potions were quite rare.

Lynn cross-referenced the compendium, finding that some potion ingredients were available in the Erdolu Kingdom, although the names differed. However, many materials remained elusive.

Two potions caught Lynn’s attention.

The first was the Mutation Mental Energy Recovery potion. Consuming it could rapidly restore a large amount of mental energy within a short time. However, there was a drawback—it could only be consumed once in a short period. Taking more would result in overall body soreness, heavy-headedness, and severe side effects. The core material needed was a rare flower called Blue Kingflower.

The second was the Meditation Acceleration Mutation potion. After consumption, it could enhance clear thinking and slightly increase meditation efficiency. However, it had mild addictive properties and required a metal ore called Silvercrest ore. 

This Silvercrest ore was locally known as Fake Silver ore in the Erdolu Kingdom because of its strong resemblance to silver in appearance.

Hence, many locals used it as a substitute for silver. However, in comparison to genuine silver, this Silvercrest ore, or Fake Silver ore, couldn’t dissolve in water. The moment it came into contact with water, it would turn extremely soft. This characteristic became the reason why Silvercrest ore was eventually easy to identify.

Both potions were excellent, but Lynn wondered why they both had side effects. Was it due to being mutation potions? If only the side effects could be eliminated.

Lynn felt that it was not impossible. Since it was a mutation potion that could generate side effects, it must also be possible to eliminate those side effects. All it required was a reverse derivation of the potion.

Back in his bedroom, Lynn rested.

Early the next morning, Lynn took out the vial of reagent, and the liquid inside had almost entirely disappeared, leaving only a black seed at the bottom of the vial.

Lynn poured out the seed and activated the Whip of Thorns spell with the seed in his palm.

As the Whip of Thorns activated, a crack appeared on the black seed in his hand, and in the next moment, a slender vine extended from the opened crack.

With the continuous infusion of mental energy into the spell framework, the length of the Whip of Thorns kept extending until it reached its limit at nearly ten meters.

Under Lynn’s control, the vine moved through the air like a poisonous snake, weaving and traversing, akin to an additional arm.

This seed was good—it was much more proficient than the others Lynn had worked on in the past half month. The feedback from the previous seeds felt somewhat raw to Lynn.

However, this particular seed had no such rawness—it felt incredibly smooth to operate.

The magic book of the ‘Whip of Thorns’ mentioned that if it were an ordinary seed, it would be relatively stiff to manipulate with magic.

However, if it were a seed containing extraordinary power, it would be very flexible to manipulate.

Because the essence of this spell was to activate the power contained within the seed.

The power contained in ordinary seeds was insufficient. Forcing activation could easily harm the foundation of the seeds, and the strength of the resulting thorn vines would also be insufficient.

However, there would be no such drawbacks with extraordinary seeds.

So, from the feeling of manipulation, has this seed undergone a successful mutation? It’s just not clear what specific mutation has occurred.

Lynn proceeded to conduct several tests, assessing aspects such as flexibility, healing speed, toughness, hardness of thorns and spikes, and other special abilities.

In terms of flexibility and toughness, it was only at an ordinary level, slightly outperforming regular thorns but still far from meeting the standards of extraordinary seeds.

Apart from that, the thorns growing on the vine were relatively hard, capable of leaving a white mark when dragged across iron.

Lastly, concerning special abilities, Lynn discovered through experiments on mice that the activated thorns from this seed possessed a paralyzing effect.

It seemed to have a somewhat redundant effect.

Lynn pondered the situation. He already possessed the spells Sleeping Curse and the Mental Shock.

The paralyzing effect of this thorn seed somewhat duplicated the effects of his mastered spells.

However, it wasn’t a significant issue. This Whip of Thorns could be considered an “area attack.” Its attack range could be seen as a form of group attack.

The other two spells were both single-target control spells, so it couldn’t be considered a complete duplication.
