The Genius Mage - Chapter 267
Chapter 267: Decided to Participate
“Don’t worry! You’ll definitely complete the devil training. Besides, weren’t we fine when we were in the snow mountain? We believe that you’ll be fine this time. You’ll complete it,” Adrian said as he looked at Kate in front of him.
“Don’t worry. It’ll definitely work,” Audrey said in a consoling manner as she looked at Kate.
She decided that she would refine some potions to improve and heal Kate in the next few days to help him improve.
Instead of comforting Kate, it would be better to let him improve his strength as soon as possible. That would be better.
After returning to her room, Audrey suddenly thought of the matter she had agreed to back in the snow mountain.
She wanted to refine the seeds of the Snow Lotus. However, after returning, the Snow Lotus was given to the Knights. She heard that the Knights had given the Snow Lotus to City Lord Lance.
It seemed like she had to pay a visit to City Lord Lance.
During this period of time, Audrey had worked overtime to refine the potion while looking for someone to investigate the matters regarding City Lord Lance.
After Audrey finished refining the potion, she went to look for City Lord Lance. Following the instructions given by that person, she arrived in front of City Lord Lance’s door.
However, Audrey had come in the middle of the night. She directly entered City Lord Lance’s study.
“Who is it?” City Lord Lance narrowed his eyes and glanced warily at where Audrey was sitting.
“City Lord Lance,” Audrey called out and chuckled.
“Audrey?” He looked at Audrey inquisitively. This girl was interesting. There were still people in this world that he could not see through. Interesting. One had to know that his strength was enough to destroy a city, but now he could not see through Audrey’s strength.
In fact, it was because Audrey had a crystal ball on her that her aura was concealed.
The corners of City Lord Lance’s lips curled up slightly as he looked at Audrey with an evil aura.
“It’s me,” Audrey said expressionlessly. She only treated this as a mission.
City Lord Lance’s eyes were filled with interest towards Audrey as he stared at her patiently.
“May I ask if City Lord Lance is willing to lend the Snow Lotus to me for a period of time?” Audrey was not sure if the other party would agree, so she was a little nervous.
What?
Lance narrowed his eyes. A few days ago, the Snow Lotus had been transferred from the Dragon Slaying Squad to his hands. So now, Audrey from the Dragon Slaying Squad actually wanted it back?
Did she dare to come to him so brazenly to ask for the Snow Lotus’ in person? Interesting. This girl was a little interesting.
“What do you want the Snow Lotus for?” Lance asked with interest.
Audrey did not intend to hide it from Lance. After all, it was not easy to extract the seed of the Snow Lotus. It might take a long time, and she could not hide it from Lance.
“To be honest, the Snow Lotus isn’t something that can be retrieved easily. However, However, I promised the Snow Qilin that I would protect it. Therefore, Therefore, I’ll extract the seed of the Snow Lotus and return it within a year,” Audrey explained patiently, her gaze indifferent.
Hearing this, a complicated look flashed across Lance’s face.
It was because the seed of the Snow Lotus was extremely difficult to preserve, and the environment it grew in was extremely harsh that the Snow Lotus was so precious.
The Snow Qilin wanted Audrey to extract the seed. This was clearly a difficult situation.
This girl actually dared to agree to it. She truly had some guts.
“What if you can’t do it?” Lance asked as he sized Audrey up.
Audrey hesitated for a moment as she recalled what the Snow Qilin had said that day. “Audrey, I’ll give you one year. After that, if you can’t do it, I’ll definitely not let anyone off.”
Audrey was afraid of those words.
That day, the Snow Qilin had not displayed its true strength. She had not been able to withstand it. If it really got angry, even if many experts were obstructing it, the town would still suffer countless injuries and innocents.
Therefore, she had to extract the Snow Lotus seed within a year and complete the agreement with the Snow Qilin.
After thinking for a moment, Audrey told the truth about the Snow Qilin.
Lance’s narrowed eyes flashed with interest. Audrey actually dared to agree to such a dangerous agreement. This girl’s courage was truly admirable.
Lance was increasingly unable to understand Audrey. Just what kind of person was she?
Although he did not understand what kind of person Audrey was, Lance knew that she was definitely not the good-for-nothing girl that everyone had described in the past. Instead, she was clearly a genius girl.
“So, you want to take away the Snow Lotus and extract the seed?” Lance asked.
Audrey nodded affirmatively. “But it’s not entirely true. I’m just borrowing it.”
“The Snow Lotus comes once every ten thousand years. What if you damage it?” Lance’s voice suddenly turned cold as he asked.
Audrey’s heart skipped a beat. Her eyes flashed as she said, “I won’t. I believe I can do it.”
Although it was tough to extract the seeds of the Snow Lotus, she had learned many extraction methods in her previous life. If she studied them carefully, she would definitely get the seed from the Snow Lotus.
If she could really extract the seeds, the Snow Lotus would not be so rare anymore.
“Alright. But I’ll only give you half a year,” Lance said, directly reducing the time by half.
Audrey’s eyes sank, and her thoughts grew heavier. Half a year… it would pass in an instant. Could she really do it?
“After half a year, you have to return the Snow Lotus to me in its entirety. Otherwise, I’ll hold you responsible,” Lance said coldly. He extended his hand, and a cold light emerged from it. Then, it transformed into the Snow Lotus.
The Snow Lotus remained in its original state, not withering in the slightest. This was enough to show how strong Lance’s ability was. It was enough to guarantee the energy the Snow Lotus needed.
“I’ll give it to you.”
Audrey reached out to take it. But, in front of Lance, she did not dare to put it directly into the otherworldly realm. Instead, she could only use her energy to nurture the Snow Lotus temporarily.
“Thank you. I’ll do my best,” Audrey nodded and said solemnly. Then, she turned around and left.
