Chapter 940 Potion Assignment
Bernie brought Lu Yu into the castle.
Lu Yu looked around curiously and noticed the massive castle was built with a square-shaped structure in mind. There was also a courtyard in the middle that looked like a garden.
At the four corners of the castle, there were cylindrical buildings that protruded like watchtowers.
Lu Yu walked into the entrance, noting that this castle was the same as a small fortress.
When they stepped into the castle, another two guards stopped them.
“It’s already so late. Why are you still here?”
Obviously, the guards recognized Bernie. Bernie wasn’t a core guild member, so they stopped him and didn’t let him in.
“I just caught someone with S-Level talent. After I created a potion with that, I specially came to send it over.”
“Is that so? Even so, you shouldn’t have come so late at night.”
“Please understand. After all, this is an S-Level potion. I want to present it as soon as possible.”
The two guards looked at each other and nodded.
“What about the one behind you?”
“He… he’s a genius, a youth with S-Level talent with a promising future.”
Hearing this, the two guards smiled knowingly and praised Bernie, saying, “You’re the best at handling things. Go on in.”
“By the way, it’s already so late. Are they still busy?”
“Of course, everyone knows that we’re only busy at night. Go on in.”
Bernie nodded slightly and walked in, with Lu Yu following closely behind.
Lu Yu was a stranger to them but was not a threat.
First, Lu Yu came alone to the headquarters of the Mage Guild.
Secondly, Lu Yu looked very young and shouldn’t be particularly strong. Even if he wanted to resist, he would not be able to defeat anyone prominent in the Mage Guild. Therefore, in their opinion, letting Lu Yu in would not be a big problem.
Moreover, if Lu Yu were talented, the people from the Mage Guild would not let him leave this place alive.
Bernie brought Lu Yu deeper into the castle.
The decorations in the castle could only be described as extravagant.
They first saw a huge gold-plated chandelier when entering the hall. The chandelier was inlaid with precious gems, making it look even more luxurious.
The surrounding decorations and furniture were also very exquisite.
As soon as Bernie walked in, he saw someone approaching him.
The man wore a black robe, and his face looked sinister. He looked at Bernie and smiled faintly.
“Bernie, you’re here. Did you get anything new?”
Since they acted at night, the fact that Bernie was here meant he likely caught someone and had good materials to make a potion.
Therefore, the person’s eyes were filled with anticipation.
“I got it. He’s right behind me.”
The man looked past Bernie and at Lu Yu behind him. After sizing him up, he nodded in appreciation.
“Not bad. He looks good. What talent does he have?”
“S-Level talent!”
Hearing this, the person was so shocked that he took two steps back. “S-Level! This is rare! In Night Witch City, there are less than a hundred people with S-Level talent!”
“That’s right. That’s why I brought him here as soon as I saw him. I wanted to introduce him to the lords and give him a chance to use his talent to quickly become stronger.”
“Not bad, not bad. You did very well! Since it’s an S-Level talent, it’s necessary for me to call everyone over and study him properly.”
The man rubbed his chin and turned to leave.
“Go to the meeting room and wait for me. I’ll bring them over immediately!”
With that, he left.
Lu Yu stood rooted to the ground, feeling a little lost. There were so many rooms here; how would he know where the meeting room was?
At this moment, another mage passed by. Lu Yu quickly controlled Bernie to walk over.
“Hey, we’re going to the meeting room for a meeting later. Hurry up and go over now.”
The man looked at Bernie and asked, “I’m going to the meeting too? I’m only a Rank 2 Mage.”
“That’s right. The organization sees that you have great potential and wants you to go over and listen in.”
“Is that so? That’s great!”
The man laughed excitedly, then turned around and walked toward the stairs.
He went up the stairs to the second floor and followed the corridor to a double door.
The door opened, revealing a roundtable meeting room.
“There’s no one here yet.”
The man scratched his head and asked in confusion.
“I’m sorry; I must have made a mistake. The meeting must be tomorrow instead of today.”
The man sighed in disappointment. “Are you serious? I’m speechless. Don’t play with me anymore next time. I’m not that free!”
He turned around and walked away, looking disappointed.
Lu Yu controlled Bernie to walk in while he sat outside the meeting room.
Soon, a row of people walked over from the dark corridor in front of Lu Yu.
Some wore black robes, some wore purple robes, and some wore gray robes. Of course, there were also some who were in ordinary clothes.
They walked over one after another. They could not help but glance at Lu Yu when they passed by.
Lu Yu turned his head to the side, trying his best not to look at them.
Lu Yu was still a little worried that some of these people might know him. Even if the possibility was small, he still had to be careful.
Soon, the people in the meeting arrived one after another. They entered the meeting room and took their seats.
In the meeting room, after everyone was seated, the meeting began.
On the other hand, Lu Yu closed his eyes tightly and sat firmly in his seat.
The next moment, he saw through Bernie’s eyes.
It was a temporary possession that allowed Lu Yu to remotely control Bernie’s every move and let him see what Bernie saw.
Bernie was sitting in front of the round table, looking around expressionlessly.
There were red candles on the round table in front of him.
The candlelight was weak, making the entire meeting room dimly lit.
Obviously, this was an emergency meeting, so they did not light the chandelier in advance.
Coupled with the flickering of the candlelight, the darkness behind everyone was like a surging and retreating tide.
“You said you found someone with S-Level talent. Is that true? When did he undergo his awakening?”
The one sitting on the main seat looked at Bernie.
He was the Vice President, and he was basically in charge of the entire guild.
“Of course it’s true. He’s sitting outside and doesn’t know what we are discussing. Now, we have to consider how to distribute him.”
The Vice President immediately said, “The President has recently entered a bottleneck and is unable to increase his cultivation. This bottle of potion might be able to greatly improve his cultivation. So, no matter what, this bottle of potion has to be handed to him.”
As soon as he said this, everyone fell silent. No one said anything else.
They all knew that if the President wanted to take this bottle of potion, they had no right to refuse.
