Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 677 - Making Pills

"This pill…" he paused while something was starting to shimmer inside his mind.

'What?' Gege yawned, 'I'm feeling already sleepy.'

'Ding! This soon?' the system was shocked, 'Ding! We only healed one person!'

"Leave her to rest," Arthur softly muttered, "when she wakes up next time she will be amazed by our solution."

'You… yawn… got a solution already?'

"A theory," Arthur said, "but I'll have to test it first before putting it into practice."

'I'll… yawn… go to… yawn… sleep then,' Gege said before her tone vanished all of sudden, a sign of her entering her long daily slumber.

'Ding! What's the theory?' The system couldn't read his mind and he was already curious about Arthur's solution.

"I'll make a pill," Arthur said while clenching the healing pill in hand before throwing it into his mouth.

'Ding! But you said it can't carry a lot of energy.'

"It's the potion, not the pill," Arthur corrected, "the pill has this big advantage over the potion."

'Ding! Which is it?'

"Potions are already the final product of any formula, yet the pill is the midway form of this formula."

'Ding! I couldn't get your meaning.'

"Hahaha, it's a very profound concept," Arthur was in a good mood as his mind was already forming the formula needed, "but there is a catch here."

'Ding! I didn't get the theory to know the catch.'

"My dear system… let's see if we compared a pill to a potion of the same formula then the final result of the potion would be much weaker than the pill. In addition to that, changing a simple thing in the pill would result in a big difference in the end result."

'Ding! Meaning?'

"I'll make a pill, using some ingredients that are all bathed and filled with my golden energy," Arthur further explained in detail, "and when the pill is ingested, these ingredients will merge together, combine and release a mightier wave of golden energy than what a potion can carry."

'Ding! A catalyst? Is that what you think of doing?' The system was surprised when he got Arthur's meaning, and Arthur simply nodded with a big smile over his face.

'Ding! But to make such a catalyst pill you need all the items to be soaked deeply with the golden energy. Also you have to make sure the components won't antagonize each other or weaken the golden energy.'

"Don't worry my dear system," Arthur said in confidence, "I already have a formula that can explode anyone's strength."

'Ding! The one from the contest?!!' the system was surprised, 'Ding! Damn! I didn't think about it before.'

"Hahaha, don't blame yourself," Arthur said, "But there is a catch to this theory."

'Ding! The soul portion, right?'

"You are smart indeed," Arthur agreed, "so I either have to make two pills and that would be unrealistic and would consume a lot of energy and materials, or I upgrade my formula and make something truly revolutionary."

'Ding! Like what?'

"Like a two phases pill," Arthur said with a blue light in his eyes, "this way the pill will have two steps of activation; one when it enters the body and one when it reaches the soul."

'Ding! But… how will you control such a thing?'

"That's the catch I mentioned," Arthur took a deep breath, "but I've already the feeling that the answer is straight in front of me but I can't yet see it."

'…'

"I'll start revising the formula now," Arthur said, "keep tracking things happening outside the sect."

'Ding! Finally something I can truly understand.'

Arthur ignored the system's last remark before starting to revise the process of making a formula in his head for hours.

"To make two stage ignition I'll need a trigger," he finally opened his eyes after hours of lying on the ground, "no matter how I tried, to control the second ignition I'll need to have something to flare up the second activation or else the entire process would fail."

He already figured out how to make the two separate ingredients inside one pill without affecting each other. For him this was simply done by using two sets of materials that couldn't integrate with each other at all.

"One active and an introvert," Arthur muttured, "and to trigger the second ignition I'd have to use something to attract the second set towards the soul sea, make it diverse all over the sea and get attached to places with that toxin."

He turned around towards the one he saved. "He is still sleeping after all this time… sigh, the soul damage isn't easily treated and it's not my fort."

He knew he was very weak in terms related to the soul. That made him envy those dark mages, as no one he met before and wasn't quite knowledgeable in matters of soul.

"Sigh, I first need to prepare the two patches of materials then," he didn't hesitate to close his eyes and enter his garden in sou form. "I already miss Gege," he took a deep breath before moving up front and started his search.

"This might work," he found a fire based flower with rosy petals and a red center. "And this… and this… and this one as well…"

He kept wandering around the very vast central part of the garden. After the last time of Gege's upgrade the space of this place got expanded to a large extent.

And that didn't only affect the space, but also the diversity and quality of the plants and ores here.

"Now it's time for the longest part," he put a large group of materials in front of him before taking out his gigantic and small cauldrons. "It's a blessing I have two at the moment," he smiled before starting to put the first set of materials in the big one and the second set in the smaller cauldron.

He lit the fire before starting to contemplate what he was going to do.

"Making the first set of pills isn't hard," he softly muttered, "but the tricky part relies on the second set… I first need to make them introverted."
