Chapter 100: Incredible Formula
[Donald’s Perspective]
At Benjamin’s special request, Armstrong had specially given him an unused laboratory in a school.
When I walked into the lab, I didn’t see Benjamin immediately.
Puzzled, I walked into the room. In front of the room was a whiteboard for teaching. The tables and chairs were replaced by two single beds that looked like hospital beds in the middle of the room. A white cloth draped over them.
These must be the bodies of the two men. After we left that night, the man died the next morning and was sent to Benjamin. The man I killed that night was brought back directly by Benjamin.
The next day, Benjamin gave me the relevant report, confirming that the person I killed had traces of the same drug residue as the first person we caught.
The person I killed was much fitter and had stronger resistance than the first person. His organs were far less affected by the drug and were functioning at a better level.
I walked into the far end of the laboratory. There was another small door on the side. I had just placed my hand on the handle when the door opened from the inside.
Benjamin stood in the doorway. His face was tired, but his eyes were bright with excitement.
“Your Majesty.”
“You said you wanted me to come here today. Did you find something?” I asked.
“Yes, Your Majesty!” Benjamin said. He stepped aside and led me into the back room.
It was a dark room because many chemicals shunned the light. Most labs had a room like this.
Only a little light came in through the glass above the door, but it was enough for a werewolf. I adjusted to the dim light and saw a row of reagents on the island platform in the middle of the room.
On the test-tube shelf was a row of test tubes. Some were stuffed with rubber plugs, and others were just sitting there. Most of them were filled with different-colored liquids. I frowned and pointed at the row of test tubes. “What’s that?”
“That’s not the most important thing, Your Majesty. The most important thing is this.” Benjamin turned back and fiddled for a moment, then took a few small bottles from a metal box.
I could see that these were different from the little bottle we’d found. They weren’t as delicate. It was more like the reagent bottles used by students in ordinary laboratories.
The contents of each small bottle were not quite the same. Some were completely transparent, some were purple, some were light green, and some had small solid particles of unknown origin, glowing with different glints of silver and black.
“This is the main component I isolated from the small bottle you gave me. I’ve been doing this for the past few days. The composition of the pink liquid is too complicated. At the moment, I can only confirm that there are these few ingredients. I still need to experiment further with the others, but there’s really too little liquid. I’m not sure I can isolate them all.”
I listened as Benjamin rambled on, but I didn’t get the main point.
“So what are they for?” I asked.
“That’s the most amazing thing. The ingredients in this are not rare materials, but when combined, they have unexpected power. With these few ingredients I have identified, I can confirm that their combination can quickly increase the limits of a werewolf and erupt with unimaginable combat strength.”
“Isn’t this the same as our previous guess?”
I wasn’t happy with the result. What we needed now was to understand our opponent, not just the drug. Even if we knew that they had a drug that could improve their physical fitness, it wouldn’t be of much use in determining how to deal with them.
“Whoever invented this thing must be a genius!” Benjamin said excitedly. “This combination is incredible.”
I heard the admiration in Benjamin’s voice and glared at him.
Benjamin quickly corrected himself. “He must also be dangerous.”
“Can you find a way to deal with this drug?” I asked the question that concerned me the most.
“Uh, well…”
I put a hand to my head, feeling a headache coming on. Benjamin had said he was making progress, but I knew that was already fast for an unfamiliar drug.
But it still didn’t solve our problem directly. At the moment, it seemed impossible to use drugs to counter the other party. Benjamin was the best healer among us and most proficient in drugs. If he praised the maker of this drug so much, there was a high chance that his level was above Benjamin’s.
Not only did our opponent have shocking combat ability, but there was also such a talented master who was good at medicine behind the scenes.
But where did they find such a person? No one could possess deep knowledge without rhyme or reason. Where did this person learn all this?
It might be easier to find a breakthrough using this lead than the medicine itself.
My thoughts were flying off at a tangent…
“Your Majesty, but aside from that, I have another theory.”
Benjamin spoke up beside me. My thoughts were interrupted. I looked at him and gave him a questioning look.
“I have a vague feeling that this pharmaceutical genius is from the royal family.”
