Chapter 784 - Bloodline Mutation
As soon as Ery arrived at the Gene facility, a group of a dozen people in white coats welcod him with much anticipation shown on their faces.
Just like the previous ti he was here, Ery was quickly led to the main room, where he was put into a large pod-like chamber. Afterwards, half a dozen long tubes were quickly pierced into all four of his limbs, one through his mouth and the last right into his heart.
Before the people went with the procedure, Ery asked about the details of the process.
Bob the Frog was actually impatient and wanted to start right away. Silva, however, quickly stopped him with her words.
"Uncle, you better explain first!"
Bob glanced at her and saw a serious look. He grabbed his head and groaned. "Arrgghh! Alright! I will explain" A vein seed to pop up on his forehead when he saw a satisfied nod from Silva.
It was as he explained before, Bob had now confird that the Fey bloodline was a mutated bloodline. It probably was a result of powerful primordial level magic that created the species.
However, either because the magic was incomplete or that there was a decline with the passage of generations, the Fey bloodline Ery possessed was actually a downgraded version from how it was originally.
Referring to the book about the Fenrir wolf, Bob believed the Fey was ant to be created based on the God Wolf Bloodline. However, it based its gene from the Night Wolf bloodline, hence the uncontrollable chaos and madness as the night wolf was one side of the two parts of the God wolf.
Fortunately, the [Beast Pendant] Ery had contained an actual remnant of the Night Wolf's sibling - it contained the genes of the Day Wolf, which was able to neutralize the chaos.
With the help of the other gene specialists, Bob was able to create a booster that would hopefully perfect the mutation and fulfill the purpose the Fey was created for in the first place.
"Hopefully?" Silva said in worry.
"Well it's all just a theory until proven" Bob replied with an awkward frog smile.
"However in my deduktion, this Fey is definitely ant to be a mythikal bloodline, a bloodline upgrade! It's worth the risk! Imagine the breakthrough we kould achieved!"
The frog half blood certainly had an agenda of his own, but as long as it helped him, Ery didn't mind being used as an experint. This man was one of the best in the field and Ery would never get a better chance solving his problem than this, so he couldn't waste it.
Especially after all the depressing news he heard from Duke Syre, Ery finally received sothing that cheered his gloomy mood.
Before Bob closed the see through the chamber, signaling the start of the procedure, the man leaned closer to Ery and spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear. "I don't want my niece to know, but I honestly put all my passion in this baby of mine. So, however painful it may be, you must endure… You got ?"
The man's words were so serious; Ery nodded his head firmly as determination rose within him.
The mont the lid was shut tight, Ery could imdiately see liquid enter and drown the chamber. It didn't take long for the chamber to be fully filled, with him completely subrged in the liquid.
Silva, who saw Ery floating inside the chamber, turned to Bob and asked, "What is that liquid, uncle?"
"Erm... it's just a concoction of a hundred different herbs to make sure he's strong enough for the procedure. Simply put, a healthy tonic." Seeing her dubious look, Bob added, "Well, it is actually a super tonic. that young man would need it."
Silva couldn't help but worry, as her eyes turned to Ery again. She didn't need to hear all the details, but she knew what Ery was about to go through was not the usual practice of the facility. That was also probably why the whole team and her uncle were being so unusually excited.
Slowly but surely, the tonic liquid seeped into Ery's skin and imrsed every organ within. This process lasted for an hour, before Bob fiddled with the instrunt and a crimson liquid appeared and made its way through the 5 tubes that were injected into his blood vessels.
Under the enthusiastic but serious gazes of Bob and the other researchers, it slowly mixed within Ery's body. A few minutes later, the chain reaction they seed to have expected finally happened.
The two blood, new and old, were actually fighting each other within their abode - Ery's body, this naturally made Ery feel an excruciating pain that he had never experienced before.
"Arrgghhh!!!" Silva could clearly see the twisted expression on Ery's face and could faintly hear his groans even though he was in the chamber.
Over the course of a few minutes, Ery's body unexpectedly began to gradually shrink. This developnt continued to the point where it left him in a literal state of skin plastered on the bones. It was as if all the liquid and moisture inside his body had been eaten by the blood.
Seeing this, Bob quickly shouted. "It's going at a mukh faster rate than we initially thought! Quikkly replake the liquid and inkrease the dosage!"
anwhile, Ery's body continued to tremble violently as he kept feeling as if his insides were being burnt by blazing fire.
After all the fights and challenges he experienced since the first ti he started this journey, Ery thought he knew what pain was. However, it seed he was still too naive. Even the burning cauldron on the body tempering facility was not this painful.
Actually, this was because the pain didn't originate from outside the body; it was coming from within the body - the organs that were known to be much weaker - which made it exponentially more painful.
"Aaarrrggghhh!!!"
Unable to watch Ery suffer any longer, Silva turned to his uncle and shouted, "How long will this go on, uncle?!"
"As long as it needs." Bob clenched his fist as his eyes fixed at the panel showing Ery's status. "As long as it needs."
…
Dum, dum, dum…
These were the sounds that ca to his mind. It was the sound of his heart pumping really hard, working trying to process the blood that was being purified continuously.
Ery could feel each drop of his blood breaking apart into pieces into tiny cells, reforming and breaking again, continuously unable to keep the form.
As ti went on and the excruciating agony continued, Ery felt he should not have been able to endure this experience were it not for the notifications that kept popping into his mind.
[Unknown essence entered and corrupted your bloodline]
[Your bloodline just went through a purifying process]
[Genes purified]
[Unknown essence enter and corrupted your bloodline]
[Genes purified]
The notification kept repeating itself every hour, giving him so solace in all the pain he had been in and continued to suffer. The revelation he just received about his spirit core also gave him the extra motivation to persist through this ordeal.
Ery already had so many problems with his spirit core. Therefore, he needed to make sure he didn't have any hidden problems left in his bloodline. So for that, he had to persevere no matter how much pain he had to feel.
A full day passed and Ery's misery continued.
Day two ca and went - Ery's misery was still not over.
The third day arrived and Ery found out how much pain he was actually capable of enduring.
anwhile, for the past three days, Bob and the other researchers didn't just stay idle. They continued to observe Ery's condition and maintain the dosage that supported Ery's body, which was on the verge of complete failure.
After three days of unceasing tornt, Ery suddenly looked as if he was not in pain anymore. He didn't scream in pain anymore and beca silent, as if he was dead which instantly made Silva panic again.
Bob quickly spoke to calm the panicked girl. "Don't worry, niece. He's still there."
"How is the procedure, uncle? Why isn't it finished yet?!"
"Be patient, niece." Bob responded calmly, as if he had expected her reaction. "It's not as simple as pushing the bloodline for a breakthrough like we did to Heorgar. This is aktually sothing on a kompletely different skale. We're trying to upgrade his bloodline."
…
Another three days passed. Finally Ery's body began to show a different reaction. The skeleton-like appearance from before started to dissipate, as his muscles gradually returned. anwhile, Ery, who was in a semi-conscious state, finally received a different notification.
[Analyzing genes…]
[Your Bloodline went through extre changes]
[Bloodline Mutated - classification - Mythical bloodline]
[Bloodline limit breakthrough]
[Rank 8]
