The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 2580 Important Discoveries (2)

A level 119 Elder asked Minos and Abby, "But can this resource be removed from these corpses before they die and passed on to others?"

"We still need to analyze this scenario, Elder. But we believe it's possible. At least until shortly before the end of their life expectancy," Abby said sincerely.

"And what are the effects of the liquid on these corpses?"

"Apart from the thirst for blood and dangerous intrusive thoughts, the liquid increases the vitality, strength and physical quality of the corpses under my skill. Corpses that could only last an hour with my powers should be able to last up to 100 hours after using just 30 milliliters of the black liquid. Their strength has increased by an average of three levels at the peak of the 11th stage, and their strength surpasses that of ordinary warriors of their level."

The results in the scenarios of people under her control and out of her control were basically the same, with marginal differences that Abby and Minos thought were not related to her power, but to the cultivation of the corpses she revived. So they presented the results as one.

Minos continued his wife's words, "If we keep at least 50% of what they've absorbed, they'll keep all these characteristics. But to strengthen them, we would have to give back what we took from them and add more of the liquid. However, these corpses don't seem to have any resistance to the liquid. It's as if it can continuously strengthen them."

That was an impressive statistic! Cultivators all over the universe faced RESISTANCE, a phenomenon that basically diminished the effects of the same type of resources of the same quality when used repeatedly.

But apparently, the black liquid didn't cause resistance in Abby's corpses.

"So we can transform the Sovereigns you tested just by giving them more of this liquid?" The guild Commander asked with narrowed eyes, doubting this information.

"Apparently so. The problem is that we need larger and larger amounts to make it possible. But 100 milliliters would be enough to provoke a level 113 corpse to reach 115... But that's just a theory. We haven't tested it yet," Minos pointed out.

This was unbelievable, but also not encouraging. After all, the guild had little of the black liquid.

For a moment, the Commander looked at Minos angrily, remembering how this man had wasted gallons of the black liquid in his escape from The Obsidian Shore decades ago.

Minos wondered what was on the Commander's mind, but he didn't blame this level 117 Supreme. He also felt guilty.

"With 50% of the black liquid left in these corpses, we have to be careful. They are still hostile and dangerous. We can control them so that they obey us, but for that, we need good seals. Otherwise, they could attack us or those around at any moment."

Otis had already returned to the guild and helped Minos and Abby with their experiments. Now they knew how these corpses reacted to artificial beings.

Abby said, "But artificial beings can handle them quite easily. The black liquid only makes them more chaotic and violent against those with living bodies. Robots don't seem to draw attention to their murderous side."

This was not an ideal scenario, and all the Elders there fell silent for a moment. Their primary goal with the black liquid was to awaken a Celestial. But how were they going to do that if such a being gained negative intentions against them? It wasn't like they could make a pact or force a seal on such a being!

A Celestial differed completely from mere Sovereigns!

Minos and Abby realized there was a problem, even if they didn't know what it could be.

"Aren't the Elders happy with our results?" Minos asked.

The Commander shook his head in denial. "It is not your fault. We had plans for this black liquid, but after your experiments, we won't be able to use it that way."

"I see... Well, we still have to observe our guinea pigs, as well as conduct a new experiment with beings outside of Abby's control. We already know that the black liquid can revive corpses, but we don't know what would happen to such a being if Abby had the chance to use her ability to control it. Depending on the outcome, we might help you."

The Elders looked at the level 107 human and doubted that this would work. For something like this to work, Abby would have to reach level 125!

But if she reached level 125, they would no longer need to revive a former leader. She herself would be able to improve Armhands' position in Zocarro!

The Elders exchanged a few thoughts until one of them stood up and said, "You have done well with your experiments. Keep up the good work and let us know of any new findings. We'll give you another liter of the black liquid."

With the words of the level 121 Elder, all the Elders left, leaving only the Commander behind.

The Commander looked at Minos and Abby and asked, "By the way, when you remove all the black liquid from them, what is the decay rate of their powers? Does it happen quickly?"

"We need more time to get complete data. But it's not sudden. It could take a long time, depending on how these corpses are kept," Minos said with a smile on his face.

That was the best part for him and Abby. They knew the guild wouldn't let their corpses maintain the black liquid in the future. Surely, they would only keep the liquid as long as they were doing their experiments.

But even if they only had it temporarily, their corpses could be stronger for a long time and contribute more than anyone could imagine. Inside the black coffins of Minos' faction, such creatures could keep their features inflated by the black liquid for a long time!

'With an extra liter of black liquid, we might feed a level 115 Supreme. All we have to do is seal it in its coffin until we get stronger and can manipulate it.' Minos thought to himself, thinking about the advantages of having such a corpse in his group.

With his answer, the Commander said, "Very good. Keep working hard. The resource promised by the Elders will reach your group by tomorrow. In addition, you will receive some prizes and merit points for these contributions. Look for the guild treasury in a week to claim your prizes."

With these recommendations from the Commander, Minos and Abby left, leaving the General who had accompanied them behind.
