Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 680 - Testing The Pills

Arthur then filled the cauldron with the lake water before forming his potion liquid. He then started to make the two forms of pills and finally managed to make the two after many times of failures.

'Ding! Why not use the two separately then?' The system was puzzling.

"The amount of energy stored in the two aren't sufficient to take down that toxin," Arthur said, "so using the two meant only failing to exterminate the entire toxin. I need the two to integrate together and be a unified pill or else the energy they would release won't mix together and boost each other's effects."

'Ding! Very complicated concept,' the system sighed, 'Ding! It's good you understand what you are making.'

Arthur just smiled and then cleared the small cauldron of the last batch of the second pill before he threw in ten pills of the first set of materials and twenty of the second.

'Ding! Why this ratio?'

"It's the most applicable one I have so far," he calmly said before taking a small amount of his potion and leaving it in the small cauldron, "I hope they will melt and merge succ…"

"Boom!"

Just before he could continue, the two pills exploded and even his face got stained with black smoke.

'Ding! It's a failure.'

"I already know that," he shouted in frustration, "damn! Why can't I control the two sets correctly?"

Suddenly his eyes flashed with a realization. "Ah… how stupid I was! I need to inject them with my energy and control their merging with each step."

'…'

For the system, Arthur was just moving from being crazy to getting crazier!

This time Arthur put a large number of materials and started forming the two pills once more. But he didn't stand idle and watch in silence, as he touched the cauldron and started injecting his dragonair's energy.

His dragonair's energy was the most abundant form of energy that he could use without limit. He thought of using his spiritual energy yet refrained from doing that after some thinking.

After all, the time needed to replenish his spiritual energy was much longer and a little trickier than the dragonair's energy.

"I'll leave traces of my energy inside," he didn't forget to leave part of his energy in each pill so he could use these as markers and aiders to help him control the merging process later on.

"Let's test them now," he started to melt the two pills together. This time no explosion occurred as he totally was in control over the release of energy coming from the pills.

And he realized the main reason for the explosions so far.

"So the energy released from the active materials activates the introvert ones… interesting, then I should coat those introverts with a layer of my energy to protect them."

This took much longer time and he even returned to make the second pill once again, ditching all he made so far.

After adding this little detail the merging started to proceed smoother. "C'mon," he calmly waited and kept releasing his dragonair's energy and even his forehead was filled with his sweat perspirations.

"Finally," he heaved a long sigh of relief when the pills were mixed together and formed a final form of pills. The final number strangely was a bit over triple the initial number of the pills he put inside, which made him wonder where the additional pills came from.

'Ding! How is it?' The system wasn't any less curious and anxious than him.

"I need someone to test upon," Arthur couldn't tell from the shape of the pill in hand, "I'll move outside."

The next moment Arthur opened his eyes and spotted the area around. "This one will do," he moved towards a big body man and leaned over him. "I hope this pill will succeed," he prayed as he wasted too much time, resources, and energy over making these pills.

"What the hell are you doing?" Just as put the pill inside the lips of that man, a shout of scare came all of sudden from his back, "who the hell are you? Stay away you dirty dragonair off my brother!"

Arthur suddenly felt a strong wave of energy slashing over his back making him feel extreme pain. He even coughed blood before turning around towards the one who he saved his life hours before.

"It's me you damned disciple," Arthur screamed in rage, "I'm the one who saved your life and now going to save others."

"Stop fooling around and stand back now!" in front of Arthur that man grabbed the air like he was holding a whip before slashing once again towards him.

"Damn it!" Arthur tried to control his rage and pain as much as he could, but this wasn't the right time to be distracted. "Take him inside!" he ordered yet he instantly was reminded by the absence of Gege the next moment when that man didn't vanish and he was hit again with that whip of air.

"Damn you," Arthur didn't hesitate to move his tail and heavily slammed that man directly in the chest, sending him flying tens of meters to the back.

"Summon all the forces inside who can help to restrain him," Arthur spat blood over the ground before giving that man his back and started to assess the work of his pill.

"Stay your dirty hands off him now!" The man screamed in extreme pain and rage yet the next instant over a thousand heavily armed mages appeared the next instant out of thin air.

"Easy now," one of them tried to reason with that mad man, "he is our lord and he came all the way here to save you."

The system already informed all of them about what was happening outside. Inside the garden were many forces of mages who weren't that strong to take part in the about to erupt huge battle.

Yet with their number the system hoped to contain that man, but he was mistaken.
