The Wine Master shook his head. "I'm not sure, but there's a great deal of energy in it.
When I cut it with my Dimensional Folding, it was able to protect itself.
Only then did I retrieve it.
It's like it's filled with life energy.
Jewelry Master, what do you think of what happened to Taihua? "
Lan Jue's voice was low. "From what we've seen over the last few hours, these creatures aren't native to Taihua. They've come from somewhere else.
How they got here is unclear.
But the poison they emit is not only corrosive, it also absorbs life energy to replenish itself.
The reason they were able to grow so quickly was because of the large number of animals and plants that lived on Taihua. They contained a large amount of life force.
The one we just killed was most likely the progenitor. It used a special method to release its eggs, and then absorbed life energy from the planet to reproduce. "
The Doctor interjected. "You'd better worry about yourself first.
How much longer can you hold out? "
Lan Jue took off her golden mask. A bitter smile spread across her face. "I don't know.
I don't even know what my body's condition is.
Before I came here, my wounds hadn't healed.
I only had forty percent of my normal strength.
After hours of fighting, I was almost out of energy, and I didn't bring any power gems with me.
I had to resort to this.
But I used a forbidden technique to strengthen my body. That's how I managed to resist the effects of the potion. "
The Wine Master looked at the Doctor. "Tell me what you need to do."
"Let's get back to land," the Doctor replied.
"He's in danger, he could explode at any moment.
Keep him under control. "The Wine Master's face was somber.
Because Lan Jue's body was pulsing with the power of the lightning, he couldn't touch him to examine him.
"Wait a moment." A blue light descended from the sky.
It came to stand behind Lan Jue.
It was Thor.
Lan Jue lifted her hand.
She used Thor's Oath to retrieve it, then nodded to the Wine Master.
The Wine Master waved his scepter, and in a flash of silver light, the three of them disappeared again.
After a few flashes, he finally returned to the ground.
Descending from the sky, Lan Jue's body was still huge after the God King Transformation.
His entire body exuded a dazzling golden light, and intense lightning fluctuations flickered on his body, showing no signs of weakening.
"How do you feel?" the doctor asked in a deep voice.
Lan Jue forced a smile and said, "Very bad.
I feel like I can't control the energy in my body anymore. "
"That's right," the doctor said.
The scary thing about the Fantasy Gene Serum was that its effects varied from person to person. The more powerful the Arcanist, the better their talent.
Once one's potential was stimulated, one would become even stronger.
You have a ninth level Talent, and your potential has been stimulated. You've become a Paragon.
But your body is still far from that level.
Now, if you want to survive, you have to vent the excess energy in your body.
However, doing so would also be extremely dangerous.
Because in the process of catharsis, it is very difficult to control, and it is very likely that you will be completely drained.
Even his life force was sucked dry.
And even if he succeeded.
Your body will also be severely damaged. I'm not sure if I can handle it. "
There was hesitation in the doctor's eyes.
Lan Jue could see that he wasn't telling her everything. She smiled faintly. "I thought about the consequences when I took the Fantasy Gene Serum.
Having a chance to live is more than I could have hoped for.
Come on.
What do I need to do? "
The doctor's eyes bore into Lan Jue's tall frame. "I don't like you. Do you know that?"
Lan Jue smirked. "Is it because I'm more handsome than you?"
"Bullshit," the doctor retorted. "How are you more handsome than me?
If you hadn't shown up, the power gems would've been mine.
Also, the Gourmet hasn't asked me out for dinner as often since you came. He says you have better taste than me.
It's an annoying thing.
But looking at you now, I have to say the Clairvoyant was right to keep you.
I hate justice, but I like responsibility.
Lie down. "
Lan Jue rubbed her nose and lay down. "Why do I get the feeling you're giving me the good guy card?"
"Shut up," the doctor said.
"If you're lucky enough to survive, you'll give me a ten percent discount in the future."
Lan Jue laughed. "Alright."
The Wine Master walked over to his side. "Don't die. You still owe me a bottle of Romanee-Conti."
"When did you owe me?" Lan Jue asked in surprise.
"Just now," the Wine Master replied.
"You think there's no price to pay for interplanetary teleportation?
A bottle of Conti, no questions asked. "
Lan Jue smiled wryly. "Where am I supposed to buy it for you?"
"That's your problem." The Wine Master looked at him with a serious expression. "So, live!
You still haven't come with me to find the Three Gods of Wine.
You're a true noble! "
The Doctor looked at the Wine Master. "I need your cooperation.
I can't break through his defenses, and if there's a hole in his body, he won't be able to control it.
We need to guide the energy out of his body, and then reseal it at the critical moment. That way he won't lose his vitality. "
"Alright.
I'll cooperate. "The Wine Master's voice was low.
The Doctor hesitated for a moment, then pulled out a necklace from his collar. He removed it.
The pendant was an amethyst that shimmered faintly.
Lan Jue was here to buy gems. When he saw it, his eyes narrowed. "This … this isn't a phylactery, is it?"
The Doctor's face fell. "Nonsense. Of course it is.
You have to pay me back!
I don't care what you do, you have to pay me back something of the same rank.
Phylactery would be best. "
Lan Jue looked him in the eye, then nodded. He said nothing more.
Phylactery, an s-ranked power gem.
Of all known gems, this was the one with the largest capacity.
It could store enough energy to power a commander-class battleship for a year.
It wasn't the most valuable of the s-ranked gems, but it was the most practical.
Put simply, if a top-tier mecha's core was a phylactery, then …
Then.
Keep fighting for a year or two.
You wouldn't have to worry about running out of energy.
Of course, phylactery was rare enough to qualify as an s-ranked gem. It was only found on a small planet in the Northern Alliance. Every hundred tons of phylactery ore produced one gram of phylactery.
That planet only had about a million tons of phylactery ore. That was to say, even if all of it was mined, only ten thousand grams would be produced.
Ten kilograms.
Ten kilograms of phylactery, on the other hand, was enough to power a Bastion ship.
But phylactery was so rare that even if the Northern Alliance mined it all, it wouldn't be enough to power a Bastion ship. That would be too extravagant.
The phylactery stone the Doctor produced weighed at least thirty grams. Its value couldn't be measured in money.
"Left hand.
Palm, cross! "The Doctor's face grew serious.
He turned to the Wine Master, who stood beside him.
Lan Jue cooperated and opened her palm. The scepter in the Wine Master's hand shimmered with silver light, then shrank in size. In the blink of an eye it was a small silver dagger.
It was only seven inches long, and shone with a lustrous sheen. However, if one looked closely, they could see that it was black.
The silver and black intertwined, as if it could swallow the gaze of a person.
Even though Lan Jue was still in her Paragon form, she couldn't help but feel her vision darken. The Doctor, on the other hand, didn't dare look.
The Wine Master flicked his wrist, and the silver dagger flashed through the air. In Lan Jue's left palm, a silver cross appeared.
The doctor took a deep breath, and a layer of bluish-green light suddenly rose from his body. The bluish-green light was bright and fresh, and it was full of vitality. He held the Divine Stone of Purple Accumulation in his right hand, and carefully moved it to the center of the silver cross.
Then he turned his head and nodded to the Wine Master.
"Break."
The Wine Master growled. Lan Jue's left hand shook, and the silver light faded away. But in the next moment, a violent aura erupted from the center of his palm.
Without hesitation, the Doctor pressed the phylactery stone into her palm.
Golden blood instantly dyed the Divine Phylactery Stone. Some of the blood splashed out and landed on the doctor's body, instantly turning into golden electric currents. The electric shocks caused the doctor to twitch uncontrollably.
The Wine Master stepped up behind the Doctor and placed his right hand on his shoulder. Instantly, a layer of pale silver light appeared over the Doctor's body, shielding him from the streaks of golden lightning.
Even so, the Doctor's body trembled for a moment before he recovered.
Just then, the phylactery stone in Lan Jue's hand began to undergo a strange change.
A faint purple light began to emanate from the stone.
The spurting blood quickly stopped. It was like the stone had plugged a cork in a bottle, and the blood could no longer escape.
Then, within the faint purple light of the phylactery stone, spots of golden light began to appear. The light flickered, and then dimmed. The phylactery stone seemed to have a life of its own. It flickered slowly, and the number of golden spots within the purple light increased.
When the Doctor's body was no longer trembling, he breathed a sigh of relief. His voice was low. "Jewelry Master," he said, "the phylactery stone is in the process of merging with you.
The phylactery stone is a very strange stone. It has an affinity for all forms of life. When it is combined with the genetic makeup of a living organism, it will become one with the organism. Once the fusion is complete, it can only accept the energy of the organism, and repel all other energies.
For this reason, each phylactery stone can only have one master.
This was also the reason why it was rarely used on large machines.
For battleship machines, there is no way to use the phylactery stone with a living organism as its core. "
