Genius Warlock - Genius Warlock chapter 270
270. Forward (3)
Contrary to what I thought, the matop student education did not yield any results.
Originally, Oliver would have used his teaching method to produce tangible results immediately, and based on this, he would have boosted the motivation of other students, but he couldn’t because Kevin didn’t allow it.
Of course, that didn’t mean I blamed Kevin.
Through conversations with Kevin, I realized that it was a slightly unusual technique.
Still, it was unfortunate. If you look at students who spend their time without motivation, or students who get lost in the same section despite their hard work.
“Are you happy with this achievement?”
Oliver murmured as he finished tightening the screws on the ladder.
“Hey, do you look okay?”
“······uh······.”
Oliver turned around and asked the question, and the First in the Tombstone-Bathory answered in a slurred voice.
At first, First couldn’t adapt to the corpse doll-Batori, making a sound that resembled a cry rather than a word, and couldn’t control the body properly.
Continued training and enormous emotions, vitality, and magic power was acclimatising to some extent.
As proof of that, he succeeded in constructing the basic equipment for the blood elixirs using the knowledge of the corpse doll-Batori.
‘Is it knowledge? Remember?’
Oliver descended from the ladder, left the tool belt to one side, and recorded the question.
In the log journal of Child and the Invoice Doll.
[…] Whether it is knowledge or memory is not yet known. Because it has not been specifically confirmed. However, one thing is certain, if the Child enters the Invoice Doll, he will be able to obtain some information and knowledge related to it as well as the simple technique of the Invoice Doll. (The extent of the information and knowledge cannot be confirmed yet. More observation is needed.)]
Knock-knock-knock—-. Oliver, who had written his journal in a clean, stylish handwriting, paused his pen for a moment and looked back at First as he looked at the blood elixirs production facility.
There were still some awkward moments in his behavior, but it was definitely more natural than before, and above all, he showed intelligence.
‘Before that, there was some intelligence, but in the case of the First, the extent of growth was greater… I ate a lot, but is that all?’
Oliver questioned another hypothesis about Child’s growth.
Emotions, vitality, magic power, etc. I thought that if I only feed a lot of food and keep the individual for a long time, intelligence will increase, but there seems to be another factor.
For example, the better the quality of the invoice doll used by the child, the more the child will grow.
‘It’s not a very impossible story.’
Oliver was somewhat convinced. There was also a hypothesis that the Child acquires the skills of the mortuary doll.
Rather, it was natural enough.
Oliver quickly recorded the incident in the Child’s observation journal.
I can’t confirm it right now, but I didn’t know if I could find out later through the conversation, as the children, especially First, were speaking naturally little by little.
“… well, it’s fun.”
Oliver murmured.
It was a lot of fun to know what I was curious about, to learn new things, and to work.
In particular, it was quite difficult to prepare this blood elixir production facility, but it was a different kind of pleasure.
‘It could attract a lot of attention, so I went to various black markets while hiding my identity, ordered and installed it myself.’
In particular, in the last part, Oliver was unexpectedly shocked.
Having to buy production equipment parts and assemble them yourself… It was natural when I thought about it, but stupidly I realized later that I had to do it myself.
‘Thanks to you, I was hesitant to go through books and ask how to use tools here and there, but it worked out in the end. Now that the production equipment can be installed alone…
“Have you looked all over?”
Oliver finished his thoughts and asked First again.
First, who had looked at the equipment from head to toe, turned and answered.
“It’s not like … … … like….”
First said, forcing himself to stop crying. The reason was unknown, but it seemed to be watching Oliver’s eyes.
“Well······. first? Don’t force yourself to cry and say it comfortably. You seem to be watching me, but you don’t have to.”
Oliver said just in case.
It didn’t mean anything.
It was just that it seemed like the other children, including First, were looking at Oliver.
I’ve seen some students studying at the mato while watching the professors and patrons, but personally, it was a little bit like that.
By the way, isn’t it better to study, research, and practice with a relaxed mind even if the results don’t come out right away?
“Uhhhh…”
“Yes, please. I want to see you do things comfortably and independently without noticing me. I think that would be more fun.”
Child looked at Oliver for a moment and then nodded.
“I get it…”
“Yes, thank you……. Please do the same.”
Oliver turned his head back to see the other Child in the flask test tube on the table.
Among the four flask test tubes, the first seat was empty, and the second, third, and fourth positions had the second, third, and fall, respectively.
They looked like a bunch of dark black, watched Oliver and First talk and then nodded.
“thank you. everyone······. first. If it’s okay now, can we go straight to production? There is still time to spare, but I think it would be better to hurry.”
Oliver asked, calculating the extra amount of the blood elixir that Edith said.
There are still plenty of spares, but it seemed like it would be better to hurry as much as possible.
First nodded at Oliver’s words and reached out to the mortuary-female warlocks 1, 2, and 3 in the far corner.
“Kyayah········!”
Then, she extracted emotions from the tanks inside her body and moved the female warlocks 1, 2, and 3.
Female warlocks flinch around the iron cap that was placed on the section of the severed neck.
It was a little clumsy at first, but then it moved naturally as I practiced.
Female Warlocks 1, 2, and 3 staggered and brought a large amount of blood packs and ingredients such as herbal powder to the First’s control.
tuk. tuk. Tuk… Female warlocks carefully placing objects in designated locations.
Oliver saw this and praised First.
“Great. Now I have good control.”
“Kyahahaha.”
First shouted with joyous emotions. As I grew emotionally, the cry grew stronger.
Oliver spoke again.
“We only use the invoice doll up to this point, and from now on, we will do it ourselves. Making medicine is more important now.”
“Uh… well then, first…”
First answered and opened a blood pack.
It was purchased from a black market, and it was the blood of a young man.
First said that the younger and healthier the blood, the higher the quality of the product.
‘And it was said that the effect is maximized when the drug is manufactured according to the gender.’
Oliver listened to First’s words, checked the recipe for the little blood elixir, and watched the work.
The first who opened the blood pack put the contents into the filter.
The blood slowly flowed down the long tube of the strainer and collected in a beaker.
It was said that it was a process of releasing the blood that had accumulated in the blood pack, but there was nothing to do at this time.
At least waiting?
It seemed okay to do something else this time, but Oliver watched the blood drip with First to learn as much as possible at once.
Knock. Knock. Knock. straight…
After waiting for a while, all the blood that had entered the filter came down, and First started the next task.
By emptying the blood into an elongated tube similar to a filter, it was superficially similar to the previous procedure, but with a different purpose.
If the previous one was to gently release the blood, this one was to mix.
The cleaner blood climbed up and down along the coffin, and fell to the side, mixing with the emotions that were leaking out of the mixing coffin with him.
‘Emotions are emotions that have a tendency to absorb, such as greed and longing.’
Oliver checked the ingredients in the recipe one by one.
Blood mixed with emotions came out through a narrow tube, and the first used blood magic to control the blood. As it was, blood and emotion were mixed once again.
The blood and emotions that floated in the air and mixed into one grew bigger and bigger.
However, this was not the end.
“Wow…”
First concentrated, extracting life force from his playing hand and adding it to the mixture of blood and emotion.
The emotions in the blood indulged in the vitality, and then the blood became even redder and thicker.
He seemed to understand why the elixir of blood was so precious.
At first, I thought that it was possible to produce only batholi, but apart from that, it required a lot of high-quality labor.
To put it in the extreme, even if you knew how to make it, you could not complete the preparation process if you could not deal with blood, emotions, and vitality as delicately as Bathory did. So is the preparation process.
“Kyayahhhh…..”
First called Oliver in a cry. He went in front of a tank with blood mixed with emotion and vitality.
From now on, it was a serious work.
First opened the cylinder-shaped tank lid, put blood, and then took the pouches purchased at the black market and emptied them in turn.
‘Various herbs ordered from the black market, dried placenta powder, fresh milk, stamina potion and magic potion, 5 liters of fresh blood and a large amount of vitality…’
Oliver checked the ingredients First put in, one by one, to make sure he didn’t miss anything or add more.
Tung-
Closed tank lid.
First turned the lid to completely seal it, then went to the control panel and pressed the button to start the tank.
oo… The sound of the machine reverberated, and the contents inside began to slowly boil.
“Just like this… Boil it up like this….”
The first stretched out his left hand and raised his middle finger with his right hand.
“…Six hours?”
“uh!”
First nodded.
Upon hearing the answer, Oliver looked back at the recipe and First’s work flow and thought.
‘At first glance, it looks easy by borrowing the power of a machine, but the important parts are all manual work.’
Oliver rehearsed the work First had done several times in his head and practiced, while First waited in front of the tank to inspect the product.
At approximately six hours, First opened the faucet to drain the tank contents and inspected the mixture, then moved it to the tank for processing by pressing the tube to the tank.
The thickened dark-red liquid travels through a tube and enters an elongated conical tank where it is pressed and heated again.
chun-! chun-! chun-! chun-!
After boiling again for a while, half a cup of dark red liquid came out. First showed this to Oliver.
Oliver looked through the notebook and then asked a question.
“Are you using your emotions to light a fire and boil this liquid?”
“uh······.”
Oliver nodded. This process was the most important.
All of them were important, but the quality of the product differed greatly in the final boiling stage.
Cheek-!
First put a mixture of blood that was sticky like a lump on a Petri dish and set it on fire with emotions of greed and lust and heated it while holding the Petri dish.
The liquid, which was so sticky that it didn’t seem to boil any more, surprisingly started boiling again.
The mixture of boiling blood, like bubbling lava, evaporated even to the scarce amount of moisture, and it gradually hardened, and in response to the emotion of greed, it became a pill-like shape.
The color is so dark that it looks black instead of red.
First carefully picked up the finished pill with tweezers and handed it to Oliver.
Oliver looked at his watch, examining the pills that were packed with emotions, magical powers, and vitality.
Obviously, it seems that it started during the day, but it was already night after evening.
I use half a day and only take one pill. Cost was also cost, but time and labor were not usually required.
It seems that mass production is not easy due to the nature of production.
“First, shall we look for improvements?”
said Oliver, scanning the recipe again.
The process of preparing the blood in the beginning has the biggest impact on productivity. In order to increase productivity, this part had to be touched.
‘It’s not about the process, it’s about the material. You can’t mix the blood of several people, because only one person’s blood should be used.’
If this problem was solved, it would be easy to mass-produce the elixir of blood.
“By the way, it’s not easy to get a person’s blood in large quantities. Freshly picked ingredients are essential.”
Of course, it wasn’t entirely without a way. You just have to kill a person and squeeze out all the blood.
“But it’s a bit like that, isn’t it?”
Oliver thought so and wondered if there was any other way.
There was also a way to increase the production line by increasing the number of workers, but this was also not easy, so we decided to put it on hold.
Increasing the production line required a large space, a lot of equipment, and high-quality manpower, so more capital, time, and bodies were needed.
As I was contemplating on how to do it, I heard a familiar communication sound beep- beep- beep.
It was Forrest’s personal communication device.
“Mr Forrest?”
[Yes, count me. what do you do?]
“I was doing some personal work. But, what are you doing?”
Oliver asked skeptically.
After the last redevelopment protection mission, I asked for forgiveness because I was busy with work for a while.
Usually, in this case, Forrest waited patiently for Oliver to show up first, not rushing. unless something happened.
“Anyway, what’s going on?”
[Well······. Not yet.]
A puzzling answer. Oliver asked again.
“Are you saying that something could happen?”
[That’s right… I’m sorry, but can’t you come out first?]
