The liquid in the wooden jar, which had previously frozen, quickly melted, and even the chill had completely disappeared.

"Is this, a success?"

Avril's eyes were full of surprise, and she couldn't help but lean in to take a closer look.

The liquid in the wooden jar had turned into a blue gel-like viscous substance.

"It looks like it was successful!"

Avril said joyfully, "Just like what's recorded in the ancient texts!"

Luna curiously came closer and, after looking, volunteered, "I'll take a little and then go to the ice cellar to test it."

"No, you're not a wizard apprentice, and you haven't practiced the breathing technique, so I can't determine the dosage for you."

Avril shook her head, directly rejecting Luna's suggestion.

Before Avril could speak again, Mussen volunteered, "Then let me do it."

"The texts record that this potion contains a trace of frost energy, which has some extra benefits for wizard apprentices with frost affinity."

"Then, you do it."

Avril stepped back to make room.

Mussen stepped forward and scooped out half a spoon with a wooden spoon, carefully weighed it, and put it into his mouth.

A strong, strange fishy smell instantly swept across Mussen's taste buds, and his originally calm face was instantly replaced by a mask of pain.

However, the disgust lasted only for a moment, and in the next instant, Mussen felt a cold sensation in his stomach.

Soon after, a chill swept over his entire body, and Mussen shivered several times in succession.

The cold intensified, and Mussen curled up completely, his lips turning blue from the cold.

Luna and Avril were not worried; instead, they covered Mussen with the prepared wool blankets.

The texts recorded that this was a normal reaction after drinking the potion.

Mussen lay shivering in the corner for a long time before his complexion finally returned to normal.

"It feels very comfortable!"

Even before Avril could ask, Mussen spoke happily of his own accord.

Stretching lazily, Mussen said once more, "I'll go to the ice cellar and test it."

"Okay."

Avril nodded in agreement, and Mussen quickly left.

Soon, Mussen returned from the ice cellar,

"It worked! I can't feel any cold, even when I put my hand on the ice!"

Mussen happily shouted, "We can deliver these frost resistance potions to the lord now!"

"That's great, let's make some more then!"

Avril was also very happy.

Familiarizing themselves with the process and making it again took nearly ten days to complete.

"I don't think it's necessary, Madam Avril."

Mussen spoke up, "Even just a tiny bit of the potion made me very cold, so I think for ordinary people, just two drops would be enough."

"If too much, they might not be able to withstand the initial frost energy."

"I see..."

After considering for a moment, Avril said, "Then let's use the dosage you suggested and test it on some militia?"

"I think that would work." Mussen nodded.

"Then I'll go find someone."

Avril stepped out of the cellar and instructed the captain of the Frost Iron Guard who was responsible for guarding.

Three volunteer militia were brought to the threshold, and Luna proceeded to administer the potion for testing.

It turned out that Mussen's view was correct but not entirely complete.

The suitable dosage for these militia was four drops, roughly the size of a small raisin.

After consulting Luo De's opinion, Avril carefully packed these potions and sent the Shadow Guard to deliver them to Ice Breath Hills.

Arranging all these took until the night, and a busy Avril dragged her weary body back to the manor.

Fernie and Milly actively came forward,

"Ma'am!" "Sister!"

The two little girls hugged Avril on either side, which brought a motherly smile to Avril's tired face.

"Did you two finish what I asked you to do?"

"Finished!"

The two little girls said in unison.

"I've translated fifty-five pages of the magic plants planting notes!"

Milly held up five fingers.

Avril smiled and patted Milly's head, "Great job, you've surpassed expectations, so you'll get an extra piece of candy as a reward later."

"I've also mastered the hard-earth softening spell, Ma'am!"

Fernie hurriedly reported, "I can demonstrate it to you right now!"

"I believe in our most adorable little snow bunny."

Avril couldn't resist gently stroking Fernie's bunny ears, "Let's go have dinner first."

"Okay!"

The two little girls took Avril's hand, and the three of them walked towards the lord's hall together.

As they entered the hall, they saw Lawrence standing at the entrance.

"Miss Avril, you've worked hard."

Lawrence's face was full of smiles, bowing, "I'm very sorry to disturb you, but there are some matters I need to report to you."

Avril nodded slightly and said to the two little girls, "You two, go check what delicious food Mrs. Martha made tonight."

"Mm-hmm!"

The two little girls nodded simultaneously, holding hands as they left the hall.

Lawrence presented the report in his hands to Avril with both hands, speaking in a low voice,

"This is the list of new members of the Night Language Association. If there are no issues, they're ready to set off."

Avril took the document, "Please sit and wait for a moment."

"Yes."

Lawrence obediently sat aside and waited.

Avril carefully reviewed the list, and after a while, she asked, "The Kadaren and Euler here, they are disabled, right? Are they capable?"

It seemed like Avril was asking, but in fact, it was Luo De asking, and Avril was merely relaying.

"People like them, with such disabilities, are more easily underestimated and overlooked."

Lawrence explained, "Like a wandering disabled beggar."

Avril nodded slightly, handing the report back to Lawrence,

"There are no other issues, proceed with the arrangements."

"Understood."

Lawrence respectfully took back the document and then threw it into the fireplace, where the flames quickly turned it into ashes.

"There's one more small thing."

Lawrence lowered his voice again, "With the help of the information you provided, the Night Language Association has successfully infiltrated your family castle."

"If you need anything, the Night Language Association might be able to take care of it."

Lawrence's words led Avril into deep thought.

After a long while, Avril spoke, "If there's an opportunity, just help me keep an eye on my father, that's all. Nothing more."

"If it's too difficult, never mind."

"Understood."

Lawrence replied, bowing politely,

"I'll make the arrangements, and I wish you a pleasant dinner."

With that, Lawrence exited the hall.
