Chapter 52: Simulation [2]
While the others were trying to survive using their skills and teamwork, Jin was busy with crafting. I on the other hand am trying to master every kind of potion in the alchemical book that I acquired at the auction
While the others were panicking from their dark and silent campfire, holding tightly to their weapons as the strong winds could snuff the flames of their campfire at any second Morris along with Jin was cozy with their artificially made house that wasn't affected by the space's influence
[Okay, so far so good, now add the next fluid just as the instructions said, in 3 2 1]
"I get it already, just a little drop and we're ready to go," With a drop of the last two fluids it made a reaction that wasn't written in the book, which made him panic and place his mask before he smell the intoxicating gas
[System: you've created a new potion out of a failed attempt from a potion what name would you call it?]
'So far nothing has happened yet, guess I can call this an abnormality it didn't explode but I didn't get the results I wanted. let's try out what can this potion do I've already remember the mixing process to make another one,'
"Materialize, Human body replica," His mask wasn't taken off until he confirmed the safety of his life, he calls for the system to make an artificial body that would react like a human
[System: filtering the bones, limbs, organs, and blood, the Human body has been created]
[I wonder what will happen when you pour that fluid into the body, will it explode or maybe leak some toxic gas, lastly became a living corpse and multiply Till no one remains]
"You guys have a zombification potion here?" Morris was curious about what his deity has spoken of
[It doesn't turn a person into the undead, what I meant is that if you applied that into a corpse they'll rise back to the living]
"Who the hell would even make something like that, anyway let's get back to work let's see what this failed attempt could do," He quickly poured the fluid into the body and waited for what was to come, either an explosion or airborne poisoning even the chance of the body gaining a radioactive glow
[Look something is happening in the body]
He took a closer look at the body even to the point where he crossed the line that ensures his safety, just to see if his deity was certain of his guess. he was shocked by his creation, the body that was placed on the table was melting along with its bones
"Morris, what the hell are you doing? it smells like a fucking drug den what, what's that in your hand," Jin entered the room that reeked of chemicals while he searches for Morris
[Your friend is here, how bout you take a break from your alchemy and called it a day]
[System: The forgotten sage has logged out]
"He just left? what's his deal he wouldn't just leave, I'll be right there," Morris leaves his small-scale laboratory after he disposed of the mess he created
[System: newly created potion has been named Acid spread]
"So, what do you want to talk about," Morris entered his lab where he experiments with the least hazardous potions of the mad alchemist along with his restoration and healing production that he's manufacturing
"I just wanted to let you know that the weapon you requested is mostly complete," Jin browses his lab for anything that will help him
"Is that it?" Morris noticed he was prolonging his stay which made him curious about his ulterior motives
"You're good at noticing these sorts of things, tell me how many readers are you going to kill?"
"Is that what this is all about, I'm not a psychopath I'll let some of them live after I confirmed that they're not a threat. do you think that I'll let them go after they tried to destroy my life's work. even if that wasn't the case, let's say I let them go do you think they'll sit idly by when they know what's to come they'll do something, and if they succeeded the plot will change, might as well say we let them kill all of the players in this world,"
The atmosphere became heavy as their simple chat targeted his plans for the future he steeled himself to slaughter anyone that could end up being a new variable to his novel
"I'm not telling you to stop, everyone could die if we let them do as they pleased. I'm only telling you that you're not the only one who can do this, don't tell me you've forgotten about me, I'm your teammate we built this story together and we'll fix it as well,"
"Did you just come all the way here just to tell me that or did you want my help with something else?" Morris uncovered his true motives which he needed his help for something
"You know me, I like buttering you up before I asked you for a favor, follow me I have to show you something,"
The two of them leave Morris's room where he leads him to a secret passage that could only be opened by Jin which opened a room filled with items that were dropped by monsters to rare and valuable metals that any Blacksmith would want to acquire
"Out of all the weapons I've created only the staff is the only one that I'm having trouble with creating. I thought I wasn't built to make a staff and that's when I read about this book related to a particular staff called the Ego staff. A growable weapon that has a mind of its own unfortunately I'm not that good enough to make one but it did solve my problem,"
"What do you need?"
"Your Mana, it might sound stupid but to make a staff that was built for a mage you need their Mana. with that, the staff will transform into a weapon that would greatly decrease the caster's charging of their spells, to casting speed and refunding their Mana," Jin pushed a switch that revealed all of the weapons he created along with a black rod thats emanating a powerful surge of energy
[Dark fellin oak - a wood that originated from the dark forest located near Grequil it was said that this oak tree would darken when it comes in contact with Mana for a long time]
"What do you say, want to help me with my brand new masterpiece?" Jin reached his hand toward Morris which he took without any second to hesitate
"Do you have to ask? of course I want a new toy to use this staff of mine is already outdated, how bout I give this to Quon after we meet them again,"
