Chapter 187 Undercurrent (One Week Later)

A week later.

In his office at the Healing Hands Clinic, Locke compiled a rough draft of information on the Emerald Iris Lichen to submit to the breeder competition.

This information needs to be improved before it can be submitted to the competition committee.

At the same time, he looked at the therapeutic results of his Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion within the past week.

First, the sixteen patients with the demonic plant curse were completely cured, and the five patients with the demonic plant curse who appeared in the next five days were also cured.

At the same time, he led Angelo and Aisi to refine hundreds of Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder potions within a week, and cured a total of 67 patients.

This includes victims of demonic plant curses and victims of other curses.

Among these patients, some were struck by the thorny curse of split consciousness, the troublesome curse of multiple selves, and some other thorny curses.

The Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion has shown good therapeutic effects, even better than many of the original special medicines for curses.

Because the principle of this potion in removing curses is to strengthen the person’s own magic resistance, this removal method is the least harmful to the vitality of the cursed person, and even has certain benefits to their body.

A week later, Locke received a notice from the top management of the treatment center.

The top management of the treatment center decided to let their team try to use the Bear Spirit Green Gall potion on wizard apprentice patients who were hit by common curses such as the Thousand Edges Curse and the Bleeding Curse.

This means that his Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion has demonstrated amazing healing efficiency against various curses.

The academy’s top management has begun to consider further promoting the Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion to treat common curse diseases and continue testing the performance of the Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion.

Locke also started collecting data and wrote some articles during this week, waiting to submit them to the library.

At the same time, the academy’s top management has begun urging Locke to conduct the third phase trial of the Bear Spirit Green Gall Potion as soon as possible so that this potion can officially enter the Chimera Market and become a publicly sold potion.

At his workstation, Locke wrote an application for an outstanding project award for the Emerald Iris Lichen Cultivation Program.

I didn’t know much about this before, so I never applied for it.

Now that I know this, I naturally have to apply for it and get some money from the academy to expand my Emerald Iris Lichen Magic Field.

Half an hour later, Locke stood up and said to Angelo and Aisi, “You two, I have something to do this afternoon. Please help me with my work today.”

Angelo and Aisi naturally had no objection.

Locke immediately left the Healing Hands Clinic and went to the public library, where project applications were submitted.

Moreover, Locke also has to publish several new articles and find out the ratings of his previously published articles.

“The teacher gave me a month to strengthen myself and carry out the hidden decapitation plan.” Locke thought: “First of all, I should consider continuing to study archaeology to enhance the ancient biological blood transformation in my body.”

“This will directly improve my combat effectiveness, and it will also allow me to use more Eye Demon Potion and Fission Potion, even those with greater side effects… banned d*rugs.”

“If I can apply for another outstanding project award, I’ll have over 11,400 magic stones in my savings. I can use this money to buy some equipment, magic plants, and learn some powerful plant spells. This will quickly improve my combat effectiveness, enrich my spell pool, and fully utilize my current mana.”

Locke pondered.

He hadn’t considered that 2,000 of those magic stones were originally given to him by the academy for testing the Bear Spirit Green Gall Potion and for expansion of the Emerald Iris Lichen.

Because once this kind of money is given out, how you use it is your own business.

This amount of money is just a small part of the total, so I might as well use it on urgent matters first.

Moreover, by the end of this month, my salary at the treatment center will be paid.

My team has treated so many patients this month, which is a relatively large number.

Of course, the treatment center provides itself with a source of patients, so most of the profits still go to the treatment center.

This is different from the income earned from the patient source shared by him and Witch Sophia.

…

After Locke left the treatment center, he went to the office of Angron’s personal studio in the Healing Hands Treatment Center.

Angron stood in the middle of the office, frowning, looking at his assistant, Carrie Ackerman, and other second-class wizard apprentice assistants, as well as his other apprentice, the first-class wizard apprentice Newk.

Angron’s face was extremely grim. He looked at the information in his hand and asked, “Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion?”

“That would be troublesome.”

“Right now, the academy’s top management is very interested in this potion project and attaches great importance to it. It’s almost as important as the projects in the hands of our few seed wizards in the Potions Department. The subsidies for outstanding projects have already been distributed.”

“If this continues, our studio won’t be able to monopolize the few spots available at the treatment center this year. It might even threaten the position of outstanding therapist that I want.”

“The academy’s leadership seems to believe that the merit of this potion is comparable to my work in resolving the blood curse of the mother and child giants.”

Angron’s eyes darkened. “As you all know, I desperately need the reward for the title of Distinguished Healer, the Hive Mind Potion.”

“It would be a waste to give this potion to anyone in the academy except for wizard seeds like me.”

“You are still far from the threshold of becoming a formal wizard. Only when you fall into my hands can it be considered the best use of your resources.”

Carrie Ackerman said dejectedly, “But Senior, it’s already happened. What should we do now?”

First-class wizard apprentice Newk’s eyes flickered. “Senior Angron, why don’t we utilize our teacher’s connections and find another way to resolve this matter?”

“We can find a way to get Locke Augustine out of the treatment center.”

“He has a project on hand, right? We can definitely find a way to let him focus on his experiments with the Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion.”

“As long as he’s not in the treatment center anymore, he can’t compete with you for the title.”

Angron immediately denied it, shaking his head. “No. First of all, the academy’s top brass are now paying attention to this place. This is different from what we’ve encountered before.”

“Our little tricks are likely to be discovered.”

“Secondly, this requires utilizing Teacher Harlan Vera’s network of connections. He’ll definitely notice it. But… recently, he’s been really impressed with Locke Augustine…”

Angron’s eyes darkened. “I’m not sure what the teacher will think of this matter then. As you all know, the teacher greatly appreciates talented individuals.”

Angron clenched his fists, his eyes filled with anger, resentment, and a hint of contempt. He had never imagined that what he wanted would be threatened by a young boy who had just been promoted to a first-class wizard apprentice.

“I’m a seed wizard studying Potions at Lilith’s Cottage. This newcomer is so tactless that he dares to offend me,” Angron thought grimly. He looked up at the people in the studio and said, “You should all work harder.”

“The future will definitely not be as comfortable as before. As long as our studio’s treatment volume exceeds that of Locke Augustine’s team, the four reward spots will remain in our hands.”

Inside Angron’s studio, everyone had different expressions on their faces.

What Angron said was indeed correct, but the problem was whether it could be done.

The healing efficiency of the Bear Spirit Green Gall Potion has been repeatedly tested and experimented within this week, and it has been proven to have a very high healing efficiency against curse magic.

How could they compete with the Bear Spirit Green Gallbladder Potion on their own?
