The civil strife that took place in Bracada gave Rhodes the opportunity to accept the banished Potions scholars.

If it hadn't happened, Rhodes might not have had the opportunity to attract these Potions scholars to this place.

The research environment provided by the City of the Dead is far from being comparable to that of Bracada, and even if Rhodes offers more lucrative conditions, there may not be many mages willing to come here, but when these Potions scholars are expelled by Bracada on their own initiative, the situation is different.

Even so, in Rhodes' opinion, his identity as a necromancer is still a great obstacle for these Potions scholars.

Desperate Potions scholars may come to Ao City to seek a place to refine potions, just like Mandy in front of them, but as long as there is another choice, they will definitely not work for necromancers, which is the instinct of all mages.

Bracada's teachings to orthodox mages have always existed in the minds of Potions scholars, and even if they have been banished from Bracada, this deep-rooted belief cannot be changed for a while.

If only a very small number of mages were willing to refine potions for Rhodes, Rhodes' speed of manipulating spiritual attributes would undoubtedly be too slow to meet his requirements.

It was for this reason that Rhodes needed to focus on how to make these Potions scholars work for him and refine potions that would enhance his manipulative spirit.

Fortunately, compared to other powerful undead lords, Rhodes has a completely different identity, and even a lich cannot meet this condition, that is, the champion of the Bracada Potions Competition.

In order to attract more Potions scholars to Ao City, Rhodes needs to make good use of his status.

"You're probably not the only potions scholar who came to Ao City, right?"

Hearing Rod's words, Mandy nodded hurriedly and replied, "That's right, including me, a total of four Potions scholars, as well as their servants and followers, have come to your territory. ”

Through previous conversations, as well as from Elon's words, after learning about Rod's true identity, Mandy's attitude towards the lord of this place has changed greatly.

Mandy also found a reasonable explanation for why Rhodes knew so much about Bracada's secret information, and learned of his identity as the champion of the Potions competition, because of his focus on Potions.

After understanding what Mandy wanted to achieve on this trip through the ability of the peeping eye, Rod said:

"I attach great importance to the development of Potions, and I believe that such an important academic field should not be classified as a taboo by Bracada, because the existence of Potions will benefit all living beings, orthodox mages, sorcerers, and necromancers."

What Rod mentioned made Mandy's heart happy at once, and before he could say anything, Rode's words followed.

"I would like to provide a good research environment for the potions scholars who come to the city, and I will try my best to meet your needs in refining materials, I hope you can continue to develop potions science, and don't let this discipline be abandoned."

Hearing this, Mandy's joy in his heart was diluted a lot, and he knew that the lord in front of him would definitely put forward some harsh conditions if he was willing to support the Potions Scholars in this way.

"You might think I'm going to blackmail you into handing over all potion recipes and confiscating all the potions you've made."

A look of surprise flashed across Mandy's face, he didn't expect that his thoughts seemed to be completely seen through by Rod. Looking into Rod's perceptive eyes, Mandy couldn't help but be in awe.

"But don't worry, I won't make such a move, all my requests are just for you to refine a potion for me, the refining process is a bit cumbersome, but it shouldn't be difficult for you potions scholars."

Rod's voice fell, but the doubts in Mandy's heart did not diminish in the slightest.

"Is this the only requirement? Are you willing to offer all of this and ask us to refine only one potion? ”

Feeling the doubts in Mandy's heart, Rod nodded: "This potion is extremely useful to me, you don't need to have any doubts, this is a fair deal." ”

As if thinking of something, Rhodes added, "Not only the Potions Scholars who are now in the city, but any Potions Scholars who come, I would like to provide them with such conditions." ”

"You can tell all the mages you know about this and tell them that the current champion of the Potions Contest is willing to revive Potions in the city of Saw, establish a Potions Guild of Potions Scholars, and welcome them."

As he spoke, as if sensing the mood fluctuations in Mandy's heart, Rod's eyes flickered, and he said softly, "If you can bring enough Potions scholars to Ao City, you will become the leader of the Potions Guild." ”

From the space ring, he took out a few things and handed them to Mandy, who was a little distracted, and Rod said slowly:

"This is the perfect potion I made in the potions competition, and although it wasn't the product of the finals, it was enough proof that I hope you can use it wisely. The scroll below records the way I need to refine the potion, and I can organize scholars to refine it. ”

"If there's nothing to add, let's talk about it here this time, Elon will assist you in everything you need to set up the Potions Guild."

Hearing Rod's words, Elon, who had paid a lot of attention to Vita, had also come back to his senses at this time, looked at Mandy on the side, and replied, "Yes, Lord Lord." ”

Feeling the perfect potion in his hand, Mandy's expression changed faintly, the perfect potion that can improve the strength of the drinker in all directions, he has only seen it in the freelance chamber of commerce, and it is also the kind of thing that is not for sale, it is difficult to obtain no matter how much gold coins are paid, I didn't expect Rod to be able to take out such a potion casually, and he is willing to give it to himself.

Mandy knew that Rhodes had given the potion to himself, apparently not to drink it for himself, but as a proof to convince the other Potions scholars.

Rather than taking the perfect potion for himself, Mandy's attention was already attracted to the Potions Guild mentioned by Rhodes, especially when he learned that there was an opportunity to become the leader of the Potions Guild.

With this in mind, Mandy quickly left the ashram with Elon, preparing to inform the Potions Scholars of the contents of Rod's words, but his mood was still uncalm for a long time.
