Chapter 706 Powder of innate growth

Chapter 706 Powder of innate growth

[OP: ] 

In their personal place, the house of wisdom phoenix was following the instructions of their house captain as the clock ticked and moments passed right in front of their eyes.

"Bell."

"Yes!"

Their leader, the one who had lead them to this round of the cometation, the one that was called a world level prodigy of her field, Mia Silver, the alchemist of Silver, was doing what she was supposed to do.

"The Solution."

"Here!"

The competition time limited were the same as the past two days, however, they were given special spaces where time flowed differently and through this, they were able to do what they might have never been able to with a limited time limit.

"Base."

"Ready!"

The helpers were almost exhausted now that the production of their final product was almost on the verge of completion.

They had prepared all they can, they had done all that they could, and their end of the work was done, so now, everything depended on the dedicated hands of their captain, and she knew that the best.

The serious look on her was the same as the looks that most of the masters and the grandmasters possessed as they neared the completion of their own works.

"Mana essence."

"Ready."

They had no idea what they had made or what was even happening right now since all the process and everything from the start to the end was executed by her alone and they were mostly only a helping hand for her.

They certainly played a core role in the creation of their end product however, the moment of truth depended on her fingers.

"Alright. Step back everyone."

"Be careful captain."

"You can do it."

The things they had used in the creation of the last nine things before them were very potent and rare, and what they had created was by no means anything safe form the normal human perspective.

All nine items before her right now, the three test tubes of fluids and six coumpound material powers placed before her were so dangerous ps substances that if it weren't for the safety spells of this place and the gears that all the participants of the cometation were wearing at the moment, even a little misplacement of these things would either relish in a big explosion, or decay of their hours of dedicated efforts.

"Huuuuuu…"

She prepared herself after the others stepped back. Closed her eyes and focused solely on the things before her.

"First…"

The solids and fluids were by no means anything that anyone can handle, even if they possessed special skills to do so.

It required a precise, delicate, and near errorless composition for the end product to turn out the way she wanted it to be.

And if, by any worldly chance, even a little error occurred at this moment, they would have to say goodbyes to this round and the competition itself.

"3-Hexapol-tryonilmelic Kilonate."

A blue powder substance that she added first in a special container where a transparent liquid was already present.

"Second…"

She was using a special equipment that resembled a dropper, however, it was much more accurate with the measurements. And still, while adding the three portions of the power that were required here, her entire forehead was covered with sweat.

The tension in the air in their room was much more dense than what the others were feeling. Even the audience and the judges could feel the heaviness of the atmosphere through the screens before them.

They could tell just how much difficult it was for Miss Mia to do those simple looking tasks however, those who knew how even a simple breath or a wrong heartbeat or micro movement of their muscle would ruin everything, understood her struggle well.

And even felt it with their own bodies.

"3,6,9-Carbchlodim Dodrecaphlinez."

She added more of the transparent liquid with a different dropper and, then, with the use of another unique artifact resembling a spoon, she very carefully added a greenish-orange substance into the container and quickly took a step back as a purple smoke poofed out of the container the very next moment.

"Haaaa…"

Her legs were shaking, her body was visibly tired after only that much. Her eyes were still and locked on the black, crystalline surface of the container while the hearts of the others behind her ran wild.

They could tell she was using much more mental stamina in this process than what was visible to one's eyes. 

They could understand the struggle that was required to do this mentally straining process, and that, too, after they were already exhausted from the previous work.

"Haaaa…"

It was going to be like this for the next few minutes. Every spectator knew this fact. And the tension generated from this made it even more attractive to the crowd.

"Third…"

She had just started.

Most of the final stage was still pending.

It was difficult, yes, however, she was the only one that could do this.

"6-Ailo-3,3,3 trymilocyclononemofol."

The third powder, an orange one with a strange reddish glow to it, was added to the special container.

However, different from the previous ones, this one was added a surface above the previous one. And along with it, the second fluid that was deep blue in colour was added after waiting for a few seconds.

"Fourth…"

Then she closed that surface of the container with a switch, and added the next powder, a deep blue one, along with the previous transparent fluid, and this time, she also added the fifth deep yellow powder, and a different fluid purely yellow in color, which seemed to be hot and more acidic than the other things around it.

-Poooooof!

Doing this produced a unique green smoke which she had to quickly remove using a vaccine artifact, since it was a potent poison and also something she would need later.

Afterwards, she continued like that and finished the basic mixing process and the black container was closed completely with six different layers of compounds inside of it.

"Haaaa…"

The color of her skin had become pale.

She looked completely exhausted at this moment.

Even her firm hands were starting shake at this moment. 

However, her eyes were still as sharply looking before her as they were from the start.

She was almost done here, and now, only a few steps remained.

"Haaaa…"

The container was a unique artifact that would do most of the processes, however, it still needed a few supporting elements like the smoke she had collected a moment ago, the materials they could not keep along with these things, and lastly…

"[Equivalent exchange]."

She did not need her skill for the process itself this time.

What she needed was an ideal environment for this process to take place, so she used her skill on a much smaller scale than she had ever been able to, something that was also the result of her vice captain's brutal training.

She did not know it before, however, she could use her skill to do much more than just change some chemicals or do some alchemy processes. 

This skill of her could be used more diversely than she had done until now. But thanks to him, she had realised just how much more she could do with it.

-Ooooooooooooong!

A silver light covered their desk and soon after, the area under the black container was also covered in this light.

And the moment this had happened, she pressed another switch on the container, and stepped back to her companions. 

-Boooom!

A small explosion took place inside of the container, and right after that, another one followed.

Then, things went quiet for another moment.

"Captain?"

"Is this supposed to happen?"

"Is something wrong, captain?"

"Shuuuu. It's alright everyone."

She was not in the perfect state of her body, however, she had a smile on her face. A smile her teammates recognised instantly.

"It is all right."

Her legs, after finishing all that, finally gave up and she sat down on the ground. Her eyes still fixed on the black container inside the white light zone.

"We did it…"

The little explosions inside the container had continued for a few seconds and then the explosions were replaced by a storage boiling notice, which, again, was replaced by a strange buzzing or popping sound. 

Something similar to bees popping inside a container as popcorn… not a sight one would want to witness for real, however, something similar was definitely happening over there.

And, whatever happening inside that container, seemed to be within what she had imagined.

"We really did it, everyone."

"But what exactly did we do captain?"

"Yes, what is this?"

"Did we make something amazing?"

"Hahaha." She laughed at their question and asked all of them to sit down with her.

The container that was black at the start of the process, had turned completely white at the end of that process.

"Everyone knows about the innate potential of all beings, right?"

"Hmmm?"

"Do you mean what one is innately capable of, captain?"

"The innate potential is the limitations of a being. Like, how some people cannot reach the fourth circle and how some could never go beyond a certain limit even after doing all that they can."

"What does it have to do with this thing, captain? Is this thing related to innate potential somehow?"

lightsn?v?l "Yes… it is."

She looked at the container for a moment more. A pleasant smile was present on her face. Afterwards, she looked at her companions with another smile of triumph.

"That thing… this powder boosts one's innate physical capability. It can unlock the limitations of a physical body when used correctly and by doing so, someone that might not have been able to grow in any aspect, could have a chance at that growth.

It can help people grow, thus, we shall call it the 'Powder of innate growth' for now…"

At this moment, she was happy and relieved.

"Haaaa… hahahah~."

And the joy of success was so sweet to her heart, her soul that, she couldn't help but laugh out with all the happy emotions she had suppressed for all this time.
