Chapter 2577 Experiments (2)

"Upir, wake up."

Minos commanded, suddenly making the newly leveled creature tremble, feeling a threatening sensation even stronger than that of the black liquid that had entered him.

Through the Dark Sea, Minos entered the undead creature's mind and made it aware of the surrounding situation.

Unlike the corpses that were revived by the black liquid, Upir didn't show the chaotic attitudes of an irrational creature when he opened his eyes, which were now completely black without the white part of his sclera.

"Minos... I feel strange," he replied, rising to his feet. "I feel... I feel a thirst, an urge, a deep desire for..."

"Blood?" Minos anticipated the creature's answer.

"Yes. I can control myself enough not to attack you, but I can almost feel your blood flowing through your body," he said as he clenched his fists and tried to control himself.

But even though he felt a strange desire for the blood of these people, he was even more afraid of Minos. The Dark Sea frightened him so much that he remained more rational than he thought after feeling the improvements in his being.

'Abby doesn't control me right now. But maybe that will change... I should try...' His thoughts stopped here as he looked at Minos, whom he couldn't help but fear.

The feeling that came from Minos, even without the Dark Sea, was strange to him.

Minos saw the corpse's conflicting thoughts and said to his wife, "Use your skill on him. He could break the connection with you while improving his cultivation. Let's bring him back under control."

As Minos spoke, Abby's cultivation jumped to level 108, while she was already moving to use her divine skill against Upir.

The General agreed, feeling the same as these two, but curious to see the results of the experiments.

Then, as Minos moved his energy towards the Hydras' Amulet, his and Abby's auras strengthened, keeping their cultivation at the peak of levels 112 and 108.

"Abby, let's speed up the experiment a bit. Save two-thirds of the liquid the Commander gave us for the two scenarios we'll investigate later. We'll use the rest of the black liquid to test if we can continuously sensitize someone like Upir."

"Isn't that risky? What if it goes wrong and we waste so much of the black liquid? We still don't know if we can reuse the liquid later." the General voiced his views as he looked at Minos and Abby, wishing they would be more careful.

Minos started, "It doesn't matter. We didn't expect the liquid to be reusable in the first place. If it turns out to be, that's just a bonus. If it doesn't, we're in the same situation we were before this test."

Minos looked at the General and continued, "What really matters here is the potential to extend the vitality using the black liquid and the possibility that it can strengthen the dead.

If Upir achieves a vitality that allows him to live outside the black coffin for a few months, we'll be able to get a better idea of his ability to cultivate and process spiritual resources."

One could meditate for just a few minutes and see results. But with the corpse, they would need several tests, with and without resources, to discover the limits of a corpse in the same circumstances as Upir.

To do good enough experiments, they would need their corpses to last at least a few weeks.

But Minos accepted the General's caution and took a step back. "Let's divide the portion I mentioned between Upir and another corpse that we'll test later. If we get similar results with two corpses, it's possible that the same will be repeated with everyone we test."

The ideal would be to have a much larger experimental group. Unfortunately, they didn't have the black liquid for many guinea pigs. So they would have to assume things from the few they experimented on.

Abby agreed with her husband and did as he suggested, dividing the liquid they would use in this phase of the experiments into two parts before dividing the part they would use on Upir into three more or less equal volumes.

"Let's test one at a time." She said as she directed the first of the three extra drops they would use on Upir.
