Chapter 124 What does your research failure have to do with me?
Leo said, "It was mainly due to good luck. If I didn't have a bottle of perfect quality Thor's Fire Potion, I estimate it would have been very difficult to break through to the second-level wizard apprentice level."
Leo thought for a moment and said, "By the way, Wizard Mord, I wonder if you'd be interested in perfect quality Thor's Fire Potion? I've only used one bottle, and I have one left. If you're interested, I can sell you the remaining one."
Maud's breathing became rapid; Thor's gunpowder was always in high demand and short supply.
Even if Mord had enough magic stones to buy it, he couldn't.
Wizard Mord said, "Of course I'm interested. What do you think of the price of two thousand five hundred magic stones?"
Although the materials for Thor's gunpowder are inexpensive, due to its properties, a perfect Thor's gunpowder is priced much higher on the market.
Leo considered the price and felt it was acceptable. He said, "Okay, then we can complete the transaction later after we finish our work."
If he were to sell directly to a shop, Leo couldn't guarantee that he could sell that many magic stones.
After all, shops need to make a profit from selling medicines.
Maud beamed and said, "Okay."
She felt that meeting Leo was like meeting a benefactor, and everything she did became smooth sailing.
However, Mord didn't know that Leo was also asking Mord if he could buy the perfect quality Thor's Gunpowder on a whim.
Leo has five bottles of this stuff on hand.
He couldn't use it himself, so he had to sell it.
However, it cannot be sold all at once; it must be sold in batches.
Overall, it's quite troublesome.
Being able to sell a bottle of perfect-quality Thor's Fire Potion is a pretty good result for Leo.
Leo said, "By the way, how are the fields doing while I was on leave for the past two days?"
"The fields are in good condition. Although it's been two days since you took leave, we don't really need to make any adjustments during this time."
"By the way, Wizard Leo, you might not know this," Fia suddenly said with a smug smile, "Groups One and Six are in big trouble. Their flying pumpkins have suffered a lot of damage due to improper cultivation."
Leo was taken aback and said, "Is that so? They're really unlucky."
"Not only were the flying pumpkins damaged, but the fields were also damaged. Wizard Pella is considering having them pack up and leave."
"That day, the wizard Pera summoned us all and then focused his criticism on us."
"At that time, the wizards in Groups One and Six were so frightened by the magical pressure of Wizard Pella that their faces turned pale."
"However, it was also thanks to the decisive actions of Wizard Pera."
"Having learned from the mistakes of Groups One and Six, Groups Two, Four, and Five were no longer affected by the loss of magic stones from the Shattered Star Stone Shop as they had been before, and they all continued their research in a down-to-earth manner."
"As for Groups One and Six, they still haven't been able to get their spirits up."
"They were unwilling to give up the benefits of this project and still wanted to achieve results. Unfortunately, it was all too late. The situation is now irreversible."
"They missed a golden opportunity."
Fia was quite moved.
Leo nodded slightly.
Leo appeared surprised, but inwardly remained completely calm.
Although the process was slightly different, the result was roughly what Leo had predicted.
"By the way, Wizard Leo. Wizard Pella said that after you take leave and come back, you should go see her first."
Leo nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I'll go find her now."
When Leo found the sorceress Pella, she was sitting in her pavilion.
Compared to the witch Pella I had met before, her face now bore a hint of unconcealed sorrow.
"Witch Pera, I heard you were looking for me."
When Wizard Pella saw Leo, she narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "Yes, Wizard Leo, I need to speak with you. But first of all, congratulations on your promotion to second-class wizard apprentice."
"I've only taken a small step on the path to becoming a wizard."
Wizard Pella said, "For any wizard, advancing to the level of a second-class wizard apprentice within three months is no easy feat. Alright, enough of this small talk. I called you here because I have a question for you."
"Did you tamper with the explosions of the potato mines in groups one and six?"
Leo shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Wizard Pella, I don't know what you're talking about. I just heard from Wizard Fia that Group One and Group Six have encountered research problems."
Wizard Pella looked at Leo, a smile playing on his lips, and said, "Wizard Leo, there's no need to pretend in front of me. I don't mean to blame you. Even if you did it, I won't say anything."
Leo said, "I'm sorry, Wizard Pella, this really has nothing to do with me."
Pera asked, "Then how do you explain the situation that occurred in Groups One and Six after you left?"
"They followed your plan and ended up detonating the potato mine. Can you honestly say this wasn't a trap you deliberately set?"
Leo said, "The support teams I went to include Group 1 and Group 6, as well as Group 2, Group 4, and Group 5."
But these three groups didn't have any problems, did they?"
Pera remained silent.
Leo's argument is indeed sound.
Or perhaps Pera was simply wondering whether Leo was involved in the matter.
If Leo deliberately sabotaged other groups for the sake of Group 3, then Groups 2, 4, and 5 should have been sabotaged as well.
However, the result was that only one group and six groups had problems.
Finding no flaw in Leo's statement, Pera could only say, "If this has nothing to do with you, that's for the best. Alright, go back to your work in the lab. Now that two groups are missing, the other four groups need to work even harder."
"Yes, Wizard Pera." Leo stood up, his tone neither humble nor arrogant.
When Leo returned to Group 3, he found that people from Groups 1 and 6 were gathered in Group 3's pavilion.
They adopted an accusatory stance.
"Wizard Leo, you're finally back."
"We need to settle our scores."
Moben was the first to speak, saying, "Leo, don't think you can just walk away unscathed from the trap you set for our group."
“That’s right.” Edgar from Group One looked at Leo with hostility and said, “Wizard Leo, we need an explanation. Why did you tamper with our fields? You need to give us a reason.”
"reason?"
Leo smiled slightly and said, "Although I have already explained this to Wizard Pera once, since you are asking me here, I will explain it again."
"The problem with the land is due to your mismanagement; it has nothing to do with me."
"I have also supported Groups Two, Four and Five. The solutions I used for them are the same as the solutions I used for you."
"I've written all of this in the data report."
"They're fine now, but you're in trouble. So obviously, the problem isn't with me."
Let me put it bluntly.
"What does your research failure have to do with me?"
