A month had passed since Ery found out the truth about Silva's condition. Since then, he had been constantly trying to recover his ability to cast spells and cooperating with the experints perford on him.
Every week, a batch of the valuable serum arrived at his residence, delivered by the Ouroboros to be injected into his blood stream.
[Calculating ancestor blood essence percentage…]
[42% Twilight fey wolf essence found]
[Your bloodline just went through a purifying process]
[Gene purified]
[Twilight Fey wolf gene essence percentage increased to 43%]
[Battle power increased]
[Battle power: 258 (260)]
Ery exhaled, relieved as he saw the notifications appear in his mind. It was the 30th serum he had injected into his body this past month. However, it was the tenth one he took this week and the only breakthrough he got.
When he returned to the facility to undergo his usual tests, he inford the hybrid frog about his situation. The latter could only say that his body had gained resistance to the serum and that it would only get worse the more he took.
"I guess this serum is no longer a feasible solution"
"What do you an not feasible? Just give a hundred more, I will inject them all!"
The frog hybrid rolled his huge eyes at the ridiculous words Ery said and then yelled, "Do you think it's so easy to make them?!"
As it turned out, the Ouroboros had to scour multiple galaxies in search of the ingredients [Day Wolf Gene] needed to create the [Fey Serum]. They had managed to procure a moderate number of those ingredients, but apparently most of them had been used up.
"We can only make ten more for this month," said Bob, causing Ery to frown. "We will find so more later."
Heaving a sigh, Ery stared at the hybrid frog saying, "Try harder, faster."
"Arrrghhh!" Bob shouted in frustration, feeling like tearing his hair out at those words. "You ungrateful brat! Where is that nice kid I t in Zodiac City 7 years ago?!"
Not knowing what he ant, Ery calmly said "He died."
Pin-drop silence fell between the two of them and lasted for a while before Bob eventually continued to instruct Ery on how to handle the serum effectively, in order to make the most of its effects.
Now that the amount of serum available to him was limited, what Ery needed to do for maximum efficiency was to allow the serum to dwell in his body for a while before injecting a second dose. The frog hybrid advised him to inject the scrum with an interval of three days from now on, and he hoped that next month he would be able to give him more of the serum.
"Ten is not enough." Ery said, causing Bob to frown this ti. "That will only give one or two percent increase at most. We need more."
"If you know any other way, Tell then?" asked the frog hybrid with a taunting smirk.
Besides training, Ery had actually spent the last month delving into his mind with the [mory Puzzle], specifically looking at everything that had to do with his breakthrough in his gene essence.
He knew that he didn't have access to as much of the serum as he now had at that ti, yet he had managed to attain such a high percentage of gene essence. Therefore, there must be sothing that allowed him to make it happen.
From the search through his mories, he found two instances where his gene essence was drastically boosted.
The first was in a cave deep in a restricted area where a certain set of bones lay trapped in a crystal. It was an encounter he had with sothing called Celestial Soul. As for the second, it was when he joined Patriarch Lucius' inner circle as the Beta Wolf. A big mistake that he still deeply regrets to this day.
Since there was no way he would be willing to repeat the second instance, Ery was left with the other solution he could think of; the so-called Celestial Soul.
To his surprise, Bob's eyes bulged in shock as he told the frog hybrid about his experience.
pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ "Celestial Soul!?" He asked in disbelief, while Ery nodded his head nonchalantly. "That's even more difficult, if not borderline impossible, to obtain! It's sothing that even supre magus sought after! And even if, by so luck, there exists one, no one in their right mind would give it to a young magus like you!"
"Then you tell , what other options do I have? Are there similar items that would help?"
Bob walked over to the nearby machine, where he appeared to be going through a list of things. Monts later, he looked at him again and said, "There are a few actually, not sure it would be compatible with wolfblood like you, and none of these are easy to find or readily available."
Ery approached the frog hybrid and looked at a short list of just three items. All of them were known to instantly help a Mythical Rank Wolf Bloodline obtain a boost to their gene essence.
[Nine Soul Pearls]
[Ancestor Pure Blood]
[Pit Fiends Dust]
Ery has no knowledge whatsoever of what they were other than what he data stated. All were rare, precious ingredients, and their efficacy could help a mythical rank Wolf gene bloodline.
"I will ask the queen to look for any of them, but I don't think she can help"
Bob then exhaled a deep sigh. "She's my favorite niece you know… I'm not kidding… I have dozens of them, but she's my favorite." A serious look appeared on his face as he said, "I want her to recover, but I have to remind you that reaching Rank 7 bloodline doesn't necessarily an you could save her… It's just still a possibility."
"A possibility of her survival…" Ery said, "Still good enough for ."
When his visit to the facility concluded, Ery took the flying vehicle with Annara once again. This ti, he could sense the red-haired woman wanting to say sothing, but was reluctant to say it.
"What's wrong?" asked Ery, causing her to look at him. "It's so not you, being so hesitant. Just say it. "What is it?"
"I actually know where you can get one of those items, I just need to go confirm it"
Annara didn't say where she went off to, only that she would be off the planet for a few days.
While he waited for her return, Ery returned to his training.
