My Dragon System
Chapter Summary
Lenny said he would come to grab them when the time was right and had gone out in the morning to get a few things. There were such things as communication devices that used crystals to power them but with the system, they thought there was no need for them. The contents of the letter had explained that the group managed to obtain two king crystals and Martha had asked if perhaps Randin could make them into a great weapon or some type of equipment for the team.
Chapter 282 - Starting the experiment
It was a new day at Roland and Martha was well-rested for what was to come today. At last, they had gathered more than enough crystals which meant it was time for Lenny to go ahead with his testing of infusing the crystals inside her.
Lenny said he would come to grab them when the time was right and had gone out in the morning to get a few things. Martha had also sent a message to Slyvia but it would take a couple of days for it to reach them by mail.
The system had been down for a while now and still, the system didn't work. For communication, it was the easiest thing for them. There were such things as communication devices that used crystals to power them but with the system, they thought there was no need for them.
The contents of the letter had explained that the group managed to obtain two king crystals and Martha had asked if perhaps Randin could make them into a great weapon or some type of equipment for the team.
While Martha was deep in thought lying on her bed, finally Lenny had come in.
"The preparations have all been set are you ready?" Lenny asked.
Martha suddenly started to feel nervous. She was preparing herself this whole time but when the time had come she couldn't help but worry. Nearly everyone who had done this experiment before had died.
Then when images of Monk came into her head, she managed to find her resolve and walk forward.
"Let's do this."
Lenny took the two to the high street and started walking through the city. He was busy swinging a set of keys in his hand whistling while looking down rows and rows of buildings. Then they started to enter a quiet part of the city where the houses were getting bigger and bigger until they had eventually reached a mansion.
"How did you get something like this?" Jack asked.
"My friend from earlier." Lenny replied, "Turns out being a Tower master for the academy pays quite well. I was struggling to find a place to do this so it was lucky that I ran into her."
Lenny used the keys to unlock the front gate and then the three continued to walk up and into the house. When the doors opened everything was dark and covered in dust. There wasn't much furniture or decorations and most of the place was empty.
"Does no one live here?" Martha asked.
"Well Tower masters have to stay in their towers to protect the academy, only on rare occasions are they called out of their tower. So she spends most of her time in the tower doing research." Lenny answered.
The group then continued to walk around until Lenny finally found what he was looking for, the bas.e.m.e.nt. A single door led them downstairs to a large room. When the lights were turned on it reviled all sorts of things.
While most of the mansion was empty, this room was one of the only ones that were filled. There were magic books scattered all over the place, diagrams of magic circles written on pieces of paper and chalkboards, vials and flasks everywhere.
"Well, what you waiting for? Let's clean this place up a little bit," Lenny said.
The three of them got to work, clearing out the books, putting all the vials in one place and just putting general stuff away so they didn't get in the way.
Lenny then rolled out a wooden table which had four restraints on it for each of your limbs. Jack recognised it straight away as it looked similar to what he had found underneath Avrion. At the time there were still dead people on them with their hearts ripped out.
"Are you sure you need to do this?" Jack said looking at Martha one more time.
"Positive." She said as she started to climb on top of the table.
Lenny then got to work on the crystals while Jack started to tie the restrains down on Martha.
"Make sure they're on tight, we don't want her breaking free in the middle of the process. If that was to happen it could lower our chances and the evolution would be incomplete."
Lenny poured out the forty basic tier crystals on to the table form his bag. He placed one of them into a large flask which contained a liquid inside which looked like water.
"It's acid, we need to wait for the crystal to dissolve, now I remind you this process is painful, and we need to do the crystals one by one. If we're lucky, it might only take ten. If not, we might need to use thirty of them."
Lenny actually didn't know why the number of crystals varied, the only thing he could assume was each crystal was not equal in power. But if Ray was used as an example for the evolution process then it was easier to understand.
The process they were doing now was the same process Ray used, only his system did everything for him. Each basic crystal would give a set of random points between one and ten. Once the body reached a hundred the evolution process would begin.
That's why it was possible for the experiment to work with only ten crystals but was unlikely, at the same time it could also take a hundred crystals but this Lenny did not know.
He assumed that thirty would be enough based on himself and his other non-human experiments.
Once the crystal had dissolved, Lenny then poured it into another flask with a filter. Separating the acid from the melted crystal. Then just to make sure using fire magic, he heated the liquid of the crystal to allow any of the acid impurities to evaporate.
The last bit of liquid was then poured into a small test tube. The liquid was blue in colour and seemed to have a little glow surrounding it.
Looking at the liquid in the test tube it really did remind Jack of the same liquid the Dark guild members had drunk. The only difference between the two was the colour.
"It's time."
