Now, the Dark Wrathful Spirit had opened the door for him and blocked most of the current, conveniently outfitting him for the journey ahead.
Noland Lee was secretly delighted, but his vigilance remained.
He used the Deconstruction technique to thoroughly check the room, only stepping in once he was sure there were no other traps.
He walked past several storage shelves filled with potion bottles. He periodically cast Deconstruction, using the system messages to assess the value of the medicines.
“Concentrated Disinfectant, I’ll take a bottle. Battle Stimulants, I’ll take a few, better safe than sorry. Biochemical Reactor Maintenance Oil, I don’t need that. I’m not an ‘Imperial Fist’. Biofuel Catalyst, Pain Suppression Drug, Composite
Haemoglobin, Vortex Reaction Catalyst—these are all specifically for the
‘Imperial Fist’. I don’t want any of it… Wait, is that a locked metal box?”
Noland Lee paused in a corner of the warehouse, his eyes fixed on the metal box.
He drew his gun from his waist, firing a bullet to explode the mechanical lock on the box.
He opened the box and scanned its contents, it was packed full of thin glass tubes, much like toothpicks.
He roughly estimated there to be about sixty tubes in total.
Noland pulled out a tube and glanced at the label, nodding in satisfaction.
“Very nice, sixty Life Elixirs that were just freshly prepared and yet to be distributed to the officers. Any treasure that lands in the hands of someone capable belongs to them. I’ll accept them graciously.”
He habitually cast Deconstruction on the Life Elixir. Immediately, he stood rooted to the spot like he’d been struck by lightning, staring blankly at the box before him.
“You can actually make this potion by boiling ‘Extraordinary Trait: Vitality Surge’ in water?”
Noland Lee was dumbfounded, all because of what the system message in his mind said:
[System Message: You are attempting to deconstruct the ‘Life Elixir’.]
[As you already possess the panel information for ‘Extraordinary Trait: Vitality
Surge(Level the energy points required to deconstruct the ‘Life Elixir’ are
Leuuceu LU 1. J
[Do you confirm the deconstruction?]
Noland didn’t hesitate. He mentally affirmed, “Confirm deconstruction.”
Reading the deconstruction results that appeared in his mind, he looked at the Life Elixir in his hand as if it were a counterfeit product peddled by a rogue merchant.
My goodness.
This Life Elixir, which supposedly rejuvenates people, was indeed brewed using the ‘Extraordinary Trait: Vitality Surge’. Moreover, the process was incredibly straightforward.
Just one ‘Vitality Surge’ could produce tens or even hundreds of Life Elixirs in bulk, with a very high conversion rate.
Each batch corresponded to one Life Elixir.
The deconstruction result showed the item level of the Life Elixir Noland held was level 10.
It could temporarily increase your vitality stat by 10 points, speed up the healing of internal and external wounds, and supplement lifespan depleted by Battle Potions.
It was diluted from a ‘Vitality Surge’ with an incredibly high item level of 60.
Noland couldn’t help but shake his head and clicked his tongue, lamenting such a waste.
“If one has a level 60 ‘Vitality Surge’, wouldn’t it be better to consume it directly? Why use it to make Life Elixirs?”
“Wait a minute…that’s not right. How big is a level 60 ‘Vitality Surge’?”
Noland closed the metal box, wrapped it gently in medical cotton cloth, and placed it in his waterproof backpack.
As he walked out, he used his hand to estimate.
A level 3 ‘Vitality Surge’ is about the size of a dung beetle.
A level 9 one is about half a fist.josei
Extrapolating from that, a level 60 ‘Vitality Surge’ is approximately 0.005 cubic meters in volume.
This ‘Vitality Surge’ is the Eternal Essence within the Spirit Pivot.
Corporal Mars once said, if you remove the Magic Protective Cover of the Spirit Pivot and open its outer shell, once its energy pipelines are disrupted, you can see the Eternal Essence.
Just how much Eternal Essence would be inside a Spirit Pivot as tall as a high tower?
At least 3 to 5 cubic meters, surely.
Let’s take 3 cubic meters for the calculation.
A known volume of 0.007 cubic meters of ‘Vitality Surge’ can produce 60 vials of level 10 Life Elixirs.
Then, with 3 cubic meters of ‘Vitality Surge’, you can prepare more than thirty thousand level 10 Life Elixirs.
A Tatis Imperial Squad typically consists of around 300 men.
If each soldier receives a Life Elixir after a battle, that would require a total of 300 vials.
The gap between the demand for 300 vials and a production of more than thirty thousand vials is a staggering thirty thousand vials difference!
“Hiss…” Noland Lee drew a sharp breath, muttering in his mind,
“Rogues, real rogues…this is daylight robbery. Where did the remaining thirty thousand Life Elixirs go?”
Noland shook his head, utterly perplexed.
He looked back at the storage shelves in the medicine warehouse. His gaze swept over each item, falling on the metal box in the corner. A huge question mark arose in his mind.
“Where did the Undead Cult get the ‘Vitality Surge’ from? Wasn’t this something dropped by the Dusk Giants?”
Noland’s pupils slowly dilated as he arrived at a startling guess.
“Could it be that the Undead Cult has the body of a Dusk Giant? They obtained the ‘Vitality Surge’ from this body…then what was the deal with me entering the Twilight Dream after injecting the Strengthening Potion produced by the Empire?”
Noland’s eyes widened, his breath hitching for a half-second as goosebumps erupted all over his body.
“I see…l understand now…
“It’s likely that the relationship between the Tatis Empire and the Undead Cult is as follows:
“The Undead Cult has possession of the body of a Dusk Giant, while the Tatis Empire has the Dusk Giant’s Dreamscape, which is, the spirit world or the soul of the Dusk Giant.
“The conflict between the two sides seems to be a life and death war, but in actual fact, they’re vying for the body and spirit of the Dusk Giant!”
