Java's heart couldn't stop thumping.
This... This... How can they harness its powers? Wait... While in Veinitta, he stole that secret document that was supposed to be sent to his Majesty Alexander. It spoke of the Morgs looking for a particular woman.
Java frowned.
Could she be linked to the powers within the feather?
Alexander's men had stolen that document from the Morgs, only for him to also steal it from them.
There might be more to this matter than what meets the eye.
Yes! They got the Holy feather. But maybe this was just a part of the reward.
The woman... They have to find her fast.
Java squinted his eyes dangerously.
Though he couldn't leave Adonis anymore due to his Ascension date coming closer, he could still send others back to Veinitta to keep a close watch.
Maybe the Morgs have already found the woman, or perhaps they haven't. Either way, he had to know the Woman's location.
Why did they address her matter as a topmost Veinitta issue?
What was so special about the woman? It seems they didn't know what she looked like or who they were searching for in particular.
This was good. Maybe this was what would give him the edge.
Java's eyes flickered dangerously.
"Father... I've brought the hidden document. I think you'd like to see what's written in it."
The Supreme One narrowed his gaze at the letter, gripping it right. His son was giving him a hint. Whatever was written there should have connections to this matter.
Both father and son looked at each other tactfully.
They'll discuss it later. But for now, they should focus on the giant animal in the room... The feather.
Java held the rails, staring down below at the pool of golden glowing light.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMany also held the fails, watching the few researchers below, standing close and taking notes.
Sure enough, because of the hole, they co vested the floor directly below this onto a sub-research room, connecting the upper floor and the one below with a sturdy stairway.
Hahahhahahahaha~
The Supreme One's voice bellowed as he tightly dropped the rails to contain his excitement.
"Son, take a look at the pool below. The feather accidentally dropped into the pool. And ever since then, the pool has been bubbling slightly."
It has been the same since 2 days ago.
The water wasn't boiling, but only slightly hot. It was a miraculous scene that made everyone subconsciously hold their breaths.
This was a godly occurrence too hard to describe.
They had touched the feather earlier, and it wasn't hot or even boiling. So why did it emit this strange heat when in water?
Java swallowed subconsciously, looking at the golden water below. The key point was the water.
"Father, what if we--"
"I know. It has been tested out but failed... Son, you're thinking we should drink it, yes?"
Java nodded.
If this was holy water, why not drink it and become stronger from within?
The Supreme One chuckled.
They had already tried it by having a condemned Adonis Spy swallow a cup of the fluid.
And right there, the man erupted and popped, splattered blood and hearty chunks everywhere.
They initially thought maybe the quantity was too much. But even after putting a single drop on his tongue, they found it burnt his tongue completely.
And then they advanced to collecting this single dirk in water. Sadly, they were still unfortunate.
The next condensed spy used as their lab rat had his throat cut open from the inside by the fluid, and his belly had a massive hole too.
Not drinkable. Not for consumption.
This was the take-home from their testing.
It seems this Holy water wasn't for mortals like themselves to drink. But did they give up?
Not a chance!
They placed another captured spy's hands into a bowl of golden fluid for an extended period, but nothing happened.
In fact, all this time, the researchers had been touching the fluid with their hands while experimenting, though they washed their hands immediately after the first explosive experiment.
Augh~
When the first experiment blew up, they were so nervous that they almost tore off their flesh while washing their hands.
To further sterilize their hands, they had to urinate on them. As everyone knows, pee was the best sterilizing fluid they knew.
Ln the current era, the slaves and many others collected their pee to use in washing garments for the wealthy. Pee was the best cleaning agent everywhere in this world.
Of course after washing it with pee, one has to rewash it with clean water, sometimes covered with flower petals and other fragrant items to eliminate the smell.
The researchers hastily washed the golden fluid after seeing its effect when swallowed.
They were afraid their hands would blow up too. But after they left the spy's hands in a bowl of golden water for 5~10 hours, they realized nothing would happen provided it wasn't swallowed into the body.
Even when it touched the spy's wounds, it did nothing.
They also tried forcing it into his body in other ways apart from his mouth. And nothing happened.
Thus, it was concluded there was probably no benefit in taking it in.
That's when they decided to test it out with weaponry. And lo and behold, they finally saw progress.
"Come! Show the heir a demonstration!" The Supreme One commanded, and those below nodded deeply.
Java followed his father down the stairs, watching a few people take a while out of the water.
Someone also gave him a bow and arrow.
Was he to shoot?
Java narrowed his eyes on his target, pulled on the string, and plunged 2 arrows at a time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm~Thang!
As expected, the arrows were stopped. But what surprised Java was that they also flew several feet backward in an exaggerated manner.
What?!!!
Java couldn't believe his eyes.
"Bring the shield!"
Java stared at the shield, seeing no dents or crevices from the arrow attack.
One has to know that no matter how far or fast an arrow is plunged, it should at least leave a tiny hole or scratch on the shield.
But passing his hands across, he could confirm that the shield hadn't taken any damage at all.
This... What? When?... How can this be?
(0Ï€0)
Java felt like plucking his eyes out and wiping them to ensure he was seeing what his eyes saw.
His lips couldn't stop quivering.
Do you know what this means?
If they wore armor strengthened by the golden water, won't they be unstoppable in battle?
Java had a cruel smile on his lips, thinking of the Morgs.
He had already envisioned them crawling to their knees, begging Adonis for mercy.
This was it! This was Adonis's time to shine!
Java was ecstatic.
But what he didn't know was that the feather he was excited about was only strong because it had absorbed powers from the Holy stone for thousands and thousands of years.
The true power was the Holy Stone. Yet, they felt the feather carried their hope.
Java couldn't stop grinning.
"Father... After my ascension, I think it's time we put those rag bastard Morgs where they belong."
The Supreme One smiled. "I was thinking the same thing."
Hehehehehehehe~
With this golden water, they will be unstoppable!!
