Grand Magus 63 Chapter 63 Searching For Useful Things

Fraser had no specific direction in mind. Instead, he simply followed his nose.

He didn't fear not finding the outpost again. After all, the AI-Chip stored the general direction and he could simply backtrack.

The trees zoomed past Fraser and his entourage of eight servants.

Everything that tried to stop them in their way was simply solved by allowing one servant to squash the opposing thing into pulp.

If it was something interesting, Fraser would glance at it for a while and then allow his servants to squash it. Or, if it was something worthwhile to collect, it would in one of the wooden crates.

Days pa.s.sed as Fraser continued his travel. He didn't find anything interesting as he moved along.

Days turned into weeks as Fraser started to experiment while he was sprinting with his eight servants.

The aging process of potions turned into a grand success for the efficiency of his potions.

More than fifty percent was the increase in effectiveness, according to his AI-Chip.

When Fraser reached the one month mark of traveling, he met a dangerous beast.

Though it could endanger Fraser's life, he simply ordered four servants to sacrifice themselves and stall the beast.

So, the number of servants dropped to four. Though they got quickly replenished as Fraser found an abandoned experiment side of an apprentice.

Sadly, the apprentice experimented with ice spell models and his notes were rather underwhelming.

Nevertheless, the information got stored in Fraser's Ai-Chip.

As the saying goes, pride comes before the fall.

When Fraser continued his sprint into the forest, he encountered a pack of normal-looking wild wolfs.

He commanded his servants to squash them like usual, however, the wolves simply gathered something in their mouth and all Fraser could feel was a shockwave sending him backward.

Six of his Servants were majorly injured and only two had the capability to stand.

Traces of flames and fire surrounded the impact radius as Fraser groggily drank a couple of basic wound mending potion.

Immediately commanding his two healthy servants to pack their stuff, Fraser escaped.

He could only feel how the other six servants desperately tried to stall for more time but the connection severed one after another.

After that short wake up call, Fraser searched for a shelter that would allow him to recoup his losses and build an experiment side.

'I distanced myself enough. It is time to find a shelter and start to experiment. The beasts seemed to be stronger than my servants. How should I capture one?'

While he pondered about how to gather the stronger experimental subjects, he roamed around in search of shelter.

The shelter he found was a ruin that had a bas.e.m.e.nt. It was cleverly hidden from the eye and the only thing that allowed him to discover it was the temporary worker servants that acted like scouts.

They had an almost centipede-like structure but they crawled extremely fast. Also, they barely costed any spirit for Fraser to control.

The ruin itself was only accessible through climbing downwards on a cliff.

So the first thing that Fraser did in his new shelter was to test whether or not he was alone in the ruin. For that, he used his workers as living scouts.

Thankfully, nothing dangerous resided in the ruins. Instead, Fraser discovered abandoned rooms and building structures. Some even seemed to connect to the bottom.

Although most of the floors seemed to be collapsed, the main one which had a rather impressive s.p.a.ce, was intact.

It amazed Fraser how deep the ruin went into the earth. Even after scouting for an entire hour, the worker didn't reach the end.

Though the other workers discovered interesting stuff. Some ancient notes, moldy books, sc.r.a.ps of metal and even some dust lay around the ruins.

It was as if Fraser was the first one to discover the ruin.

It was not long before Fraser realized that he was in a Magi ruin.

Immediately his mindset changed.

'This isn't one of these inheritance ruins, right? It should be one of the temporary experiment sides, at least indicated by these buildings.'

There was no indication for danger and even life forms were rare. There wasn't even a gate or anything to alike prevent him from stepping in. Nothing stopped his workers from exploring the ruin.

And the only encounter from the centipede-like workers were small rats or bugs.

Nothing that these workers couldn't handle.

Deciding to stay in the ruin for a while to explore it, Fraser took one of the ruin buildings that looked decent enough and made it into his hideout.

'So it is possible to transplant organs into my servants. Though it seems to be unnecessary for my servants of the type soldiers since the organs of the collected beasts seems to be of lower quality.'

A centipede-like creature laid on a makes.h.i.+ft table that was a rather large slab of stone.

Antler like horns decorated the head of the centipede, thousand small eyes were next to it and curiously glanced around. White Fur now replaced its former chitin armor.

'So this is the only success of my experiments? Bring out the numbers.'

A status screen appeared in Fraser's mind, indicating the power and abilities of the former centipede servant.

[Former Stats of the Worker]

[0.2 strength, 4 agility, 0.3 vitality]

[Current Stats]

[1.3 strength, 4.6 agility, 3.2 vitality]

'The only major increase seems to be vitality. The reason behind the increase seems to be the average quality of the organs that caused this major spike. The eyes of the hundred eyed spider seem to be a useless decoration, they don't even move. There is no muscle for the unusual amount of eyes.'

Fraser glanced at the small black eyes that covered the head of his worker.

'It seems that trying to implant the view of the hundred-eyed spider seems to be a failure, in the next experiment I should try to add muscles to certain organs and then see what happens. Perhaps a mutation? Perhaps I could even add limbs or muscle tissues from different beasts into my servants? It seems that picking up transplantation seems to open possibilities after possibilities.'

Though transplantation seemed to be the major experiment Fraser was doing at the ruins, his actual major experiment was to play around with potion craft. He tried to use blood, flesh, bones and organs of living beings to be used as potion materials.

Thousands of gla.s.s flasks lied in a room, weird parts of animals floated in different liquids that Fraser decided to put in.

Some even started to 'live' as hearts of various animals started to beat in the gla.s.s flasks.

However, when Fraser opened these beating hearts, they quickly died out once more and the only thing remaining was a heart that turned into mush.

The rest of the gla.s.s flasks seemed to be a failure as nothing happened to them. Only a couple of the flask had a behavior that interested Fraser as they possessed some major change.

For example, blood coupled with the basic wound mending potion allowed Fraser to cultivate a stronger healing potion. When Fraser tested the effect on one of his transplant objects, his workers, the implantation seemingly fused together with the body of his work with no wound.

Further experimentation allowed Fraser to discover that one needed a high mastery in the incubation technique as well as the aging process to brew the better healing potion.

Thus Fraser deemed his new potion as the blood potion.
