Chapter 1039: Chapter 482 Fairy’s Tears_2

[You find yourself in an academy dormitory.]

[Looking out the window, you see several owls circling, each gripping a letter in its beak.]

[You approach and open the window, the owls swarm in and then scatter, leaving a flurry of envelopes falling around you...]

I hadn’t expected to be bombarded with letters as soon as I got back.

Mu You opened the letters one by one and saw that they were all from the Potion Club, with urgent messages from the president and several vice presidents, all urging him to quickly get to the club, saying there was an emergency.

"Could it be some sort of event?"

Mu You couldn’t think of any reason the Potion Club would be in such a hurry to find him, and out of curiosity, he decided to check it out first.

[You arrive at the academy’s Potion Club.]

[Inside the Potion Club, it’s swarming with people, the noise is incessant, reminiscent of a bustling market. Outside the club door, there’s also a large crowd of students lined up in an orderly queue managed by two club members, each holding various magic medicine materials, the content of which seems familiar to you.]

["Hey!"]

[Just as you’re about to approach someone for clarification, you feel a tap on your shoulder.]

[A familiar voice rings out, and as you turn to look, you see Chris Fuya standing behind you, watching you with a stoic expression.]

[Fuya: I’ve finally waited for you!]

Fuya spoke, not through direct conversation in the game, but as a message sent to Mu You through the friend interface. Clearly, she was also just operating her game character.

"What’s happened?" Mu You asked in a hurry, knowing that Fuya, as a member of the academy’s Potion Club and nearing the status of a fourth-order magic potion master, had a high position in the club and should be aware of the situation.

"You don’t know? A few hours ago, the Wizard Association just made the evolution elixir recipe public!" Fuya replied.

"Huh? Why?" Mu You was taken aback, as the evolution elixir was of paramount importance to the Wizard Association, which had safeguarded the recipe for many years and had never leaked it. Why would they suddenly make it public now?

"I don’t know the details, but they suddenly published the recipe, and the whole academy, no, the entire Imperial Capital, is in an uproar. Everyone is frantically scrambling for those three main ingredients and other subsidiary materials, causing their prices to skyrocket. Now you can’t even find them on the market..."

Fuya said, "After the recipe was released, magic potion clubs from various academies immediately called together people to start verification. All fourth-level and nearing fourth-level magic potion masters can practice five times at no cost within the club, with the club covering the expenses for materials. However, if a successful product is made, it must belong to the club."

"Then why haven’t you tried it?" Mu You asked her.

"I used up my tries early on, and unfortunately, I couldn’t make a single bottle despite my efforts; the materials were all wasted..." Fuya sent an embarrassed emoji.

After hearing Fuya’s explanation, Mu You pondered for a few seconds then suddenly understood.

The Wizard Association must have made the recipe public because of the Fool.

Now that the Fools’ faith system has launched, players can use it to overcome their bottlenecks directly without being held back by the evolution elixir anymore.

If the Wizard Association continues to withhold the recipe, they would only be holding themselves back.

Meanwhile, the Fools have just repelled the Titans, almost without any losses, which probably also took the Wizard Association by surprise.

The Fools, if they wanted, could easily overthrow the Wizard Association now, and it was clear that the Wizard Association was genuinely afraid, preferring to make the evolution elixir recipe public in order to as much as possible strengthen the human race and reduce the gap with the Fools.

Once he understood the reasons, Mu You felt somewhat amused. The Wizard Association was so anxious, yet the focus of humanity had long since shifted from the confines of the Star Spirit World to the vast cosmic ocean.

Most players were already actively preparing for Sky High, who had time to play house with them? The Wizard Association’s actions were a needless worry.

"Aren’t you going to give it a try? It’s free materials, you know!" Fuya tempted him at that moment.

"Ahem, no need for that..."

Mu You declined resolutely, as his bag was nearly filled to the brim with evolution elixirs; he truly did not lack such things.

Besides, the club’s goal was to train members’ proficiency. While they claimed the materials were free, any successful product would still be confiscated by the club. Mu You had long passed the stage of needing to build proficiency. His success rate with evolution elixirs was nearly one hundred percent, and refining medicine here would be like helping the club make money for free.

"Your timing is perfect. Do you have time now? If so, take me to Bitter Forest," Mu You turned and asked Fuya.

Bitter Forest was a place he had yet to enter, and it would be best to go with someone familiar with the area, and Fuya was undoubtedly the most suitable person.

"Bitter Forest? What are you going to do in that dreadful place?" Fuya was taken aback.

"It’s a long story, but I need to find some things in there and need someone to lead the way," Mu You said, not having the time to explain in detail.

"Is it urgent?"

"Quite!"

"Alright then... follow me." Seeing that Mu You seemed to be in a rush, Fuya didn’t ask any further and promptly sent him a team invitation.

After Mu You accepted, she returned to her dormitory to grab some tools and medicine. Once she was sure everything was in order, she led Mu You to a forested area behind the mountain.

[You and Fuya arrive at the edge of Bitter Forest.]
