Chapter 67 Success
"Your names are Clayman, Fundy, Ted and Toby, right?" Andrew asked with a smile.
The four of them were very excited and replied in unison: "Yes, Your Excellency the Duke."
Andrew said: "You must be curious about why I kept you here."
The four of them nodded in unison. In their opinion, their strength would definitely not be in the Duke's eyes. Nowadays, the Duchy of Reims is rich and powerful, and has recruited many strong men. In the army alone, high-level warriors account for one-tenth, not to mention the guards of the Duke's Palace.
Andrew hesitated, wondering if he should say it. The soul repulsion of these people was not strong, so the possibility of successfully fusing their blood essence was much greater than that of others. However, there were risks after all. If they failed, they would surely die. Andrew could ignore the death of the death row prisoners, but he could not take risks with his own men.
"Forget it, let them choose for themselves."
Andrew sighed and told the four people everything. He did not even hide the number of deaths. He did not need to hide these things, nor did he bother to hide them. As a strong man, a lord, if he used those tricks on the most ordinary soldiers under his command, it would be a failure.
"So, this time you decide for yourself whether to participate in this experiment. In my opinion, your chances of success are not low, but I can't guarantee it..."
"Sir," Toby, whose stat is 15, was the first to speak after a moment of silence. "Once we successfully fuse the dragon's blood, will we become stronger?"
Andrew nodded and said, "Dragons are much more talented than humans. Not to mention magic, just the physical body, even the human sanctuary is not as good as an ordinary dragon. I estimate that if you can succeed, the strength of your physical body will be greatly enhanced, and you can even transform into a dragon. It is also possible that your talent can also be improved... These are the benefits of success. However, if you fail, I can't save your lives, so you have to think carefully!"
Toby gritted his teeth and said, "Your Excellency the Duke, I have thought about it. I will participate!"
Andrew was very surprised. Among the four, he was least optimistic about Toby, but he was also the first to make up his mind.
"What about you?" Andrew looked at the other three.
The youngest, Clement, was very conflicted. His statistic was only three, and he was also the one Andrew was most optimistic about.
“Your Excellency the Duke, if, if we die, what will happen to our families?” Clement whispered.
Andrew looked at him seriously. "Clement, you don't have to worry too much. Whether to participate or not is up to you. Once you participate, whether you succeed or not, I will take good care of your family!"
Clement raised his head and said, "My Lord Duke, I participate! You are a kind nobleman, and I believe in you!"
Led by Kleiman, Fendi and Ted also agreed.
Andrew didn't know whether to be happy or sad, but he was still very satisfied with the result. Before conducting the final experiment, he tested the soul rejection value with the four people again to make sure that there was no mistake.
"Clement, among the four of you, you have the highest success rate, so let's start with you!"
Andrew took out a drop of golden dragon's blood and handed it to Clayman. Looking at the drop of blood, Clayman swallowed.
"Sir, is this the blood essence of the invincible Holy Land dragon, the Golden Dragon?"
Andrew nodded and said, "Yes, the golden dragon is a light-type magic beast, with a strong body and immunity to all kinds of magic. In addition, its recovery ability is second to none among all magic beasts. If you can fuse it, your future achievements will be limitless!"
A hint of determination flashed across Clayman's eyes, and he quickly swallowed the blood.
“You three, step back!” Andrew was very nervous. Clement’s success or failure depended on whether his conclusion was correct, and even determined whether he could fuse the Azure Dragon’s blood essence!
Toby and the other three were also very nervous, but they still backed away.
Andrew took a step forward and held down Clayman with his hands. At this moment, like the previous experimenters, Clayman's whole body began to swell, his face twisted, and he howled, obviously in great pain.
However, what made Andrew happy was that Clayman's expansion speed was many times slower than those people.
"The fluctuations of soul rejection are getting stronger and stronger, and the values are starting to rise!"
Andrew suppressed Clayman, who was wrapped in the light cocoon, and held the tester in his hand. On the tester, the value of soul rejection continued to rise. In a quarter of an hour, the value rose from three to twenty!
"Twenty! This is bad!"
Andrew secretly said that it was not good, but he had no choice but to wait for the result. What surprised him was that the value did not stop at 20, but continued to rise.
thirty……
forty……
forty five……
As time went by, the value was about to exceed fifty, but Clement's expanded body stabilized. At this time, he was three meters tall, and his whole body was covered with golden scales. Two sharp dragon horns grew on his head, and a long tail hung down behind him.
"This is a transformation! Could it be that Clayman succeeded?"
Andrew stood aside in surprise, looking at the half-dragon Clement. From the outside, Clement no longer looked like a human.
After waiting for more than two hours, Clayman's breath finally stabilized, and the fluctuation value of his soul dropped rapidly from fifty to zero. Andrew was overjoyed, which meant that Clayman had successfully survived the soul rejection and merged with the golden dragon's blood essence!
"boom!"
The huge dragon man fell down.
Toby and the others looked at the mighty-looking Clayman, and shuddered at the thought of his painful howls just now.
"Sir, Clement he..." Toby stepped forward and asked cautiously.
Andrew smiled happily: "Don't worry, Clayman succeeded! From today on, he is a Golden Dragon Warrior! With his physical body alone, Clayman's strength is enough to rival that of a seventh-level warrior!"
“Successful?” Toby and the two people behind him looked at Clayman, with an expression in their eyes that could not be told whether it was envy or something else.
"A golden dragon warrior, comparable to a level seven warrior! Just now, Clayman was only a level five warrior..."
Clement’s success gave the three of them a great shock, and they were even more looking forward to the fusion of their essence and blood.
"Next, Fendi!"
With a successful experience, Andrew gained a lot of confidence. He gave Fendi a drop of Thunder Dragon blood and asked him to fuse it.
Andrew discovered that fusing blood essence had nothing to do with talent. Clement had previously cultivated wind-type fighting spirit, but he was still able to successfully fuse the blood essence of the light dragon. And Fendi was a water-type warrior, so he had the lowest rejection of the blood essence of the thunder dragon.
The experiment went smoothly this time. It took more than three hours, and Fendi successfully integrated the blood of the thunder dragon and transformed into a half-dragon.
"Fendi's strength is higher than Clayman's. After the transformation, his aura has reached the peak of level seven. As long as he can break through level seven, even a level eight warrior will not be his opponent."
Ted and Toby were jealous as they watched their companions succeed one after another.
"Ted, it's your turn!" Andrew gave Ted a drop of Tyrannosaurus Rex blood. Tyrannosaurus Rex is also a ground-type monster, and its strength is the strongest among the dragons.
"I hope you're okay."
Andrew was a little worried. Clyde and Fendi both had values below 10, so their chances of success were high. However, Ted and Toby had values of 12 and 15 respectively, so Andrew was not so sure.
However, seeing the envy of Clyde and Fendi in their eyes, Andrew did not say anything. In this world where strength is supreme, there are many people who fight to the death to gain strength. Moreover, they have had successful examples before...
Ted succeeded without any danger. However, it took him much longer. Andrew also found that when he was fusing the essence and blood, the fluctuation value was close to 60. Clyde and Fendi did not have this situation. The highest value of the two was only 50.
"It seems that in addition to the lowest value, everyone has a highest value. In Ted's case, the safe value range should be 20 at the lowest and 60 at the highest. If it exceeds this range, the fusion of blood essence will be dangerous."
Andrew was a little worried about Toby. In his opinion, among the four people, the one who was most eager for strength was Toby. Coincidentally, he was also the one in the greatest danger. However, looking at Toby's eyes, Andrew did not persuade him. Even if he did, it would be useless.
"Toby, it's your turn! You saw what happened to Ted just now. It was very dangerous. And you are definitely in more danger than him. Think carefully. If you fail, I can't save you!"
Andrew thought about it and decided to give one more piece of advice.
Toby shook his head firmly: "My lord, I have made up my mind. Even if I die, I will not regret it!"
Without saying anything else, Andrew handed him a drop of inky blood. This was the blood of the dark dragon, the black dragon. The black dragon was considered an outlier in the dragon clan, and its combat power was comparable to that of the golden dragon, but because of its brutal character, it was not liked by other dragons.
Toby swallowed the blood without hesitation and sat cross-legged. Unlike the first three people, Toby's muscles twitched and sweated profusely, but he clenched his teeth and did not scream.
On the side, Andrew looked at the tester worriedly. The value on it rose sharply and soon passed the fifty mark.
"I hope you can hold on..." Compared with the previous three people, Andrew values Toby more.
