chapter 347 part 2
"The 'Blend Potion' may be more precious than we imagined."
Kelart stared intently at the message on the conference table. "Whether it's the Slane Theocracy shamelessly making a move to snatch it, or them now seeking out Leader Tang."
"All of this further proves the value of the 'Blend Potion.' They even revealed to Leader Tang that they were the ones who stole the potion from us."
"To this end, they're completely unconcerned about the potential diplomatic conflict between our two nations!"
"This is an opportunity—Your Majesty Calca."
Kelart's eyes lit up, as if she were plotting something.
Remedios was bewildered, completely unable to understand what Kelart was saying. She also knew this was not the right time for her to interject.
Holy Queen Calca did not speak immediately. Her flower-like face, a mixture of cute and stern, showed contemplation and doubt.
Ensuring the happiness and safety of her people was her pursuit!
Unless absolutely necessary, Holy Queen Calca had no intention of entering into any conflict with the Slane Theocracy.
"The true purpose of Leader Tang of Free Will sending us this message is to obtain our assistance."
Holy Queen Calca did not lack a keen sense; she could naturally see the true purpose behind the message.
"Correct." Kelart nodded. "Since the people of the Slane Theocracy dared to snatch the potion Leader Tang gave us..."
"Then, as the creator of the potion, it's only natural for him to have some level of concern when facing an invitation from the Slane Theocracy."
Holy Queen Calca's long, lustrous golden hair swayed slightly. She smiled in agreement with Kelart's words but also raised her own doubt:
"With Leader Tang's strength, he could simply refuse such an invitation, could he not?"
"As expected of Your Majesty Calca."
Kelart praised respectfully, the sinister smile on her face deepening a fraction.
"According to my speculation, Leader Tang must also be curious about the 'Blend Potion'!"
"Didn't he make that potion himself?"
Remedios, who had been silent, hastily voiced her opinion.
"From the Slane Theocracy's actions, we can deduce the potion's importance. However, when Leader Tang made the transaction with us, he seemed very casual about it."
Kelart licked her lips at this point, a new fervor in her tone.
"This suggests that Leader Tang himself may not have understood the true value of the 'Blend Potion,' or that the Slane Theocracy has made some major new discovery through it."
"Hehe... As a genius alchemist, to have a potion he developed himself exhibit even greater effects in the hands of others—anyone would want to get to the bottom of that, right?"
Holy Queen Calca's expression gradually turned serious.
She didn't want conflict with the Slane Theocracy, but if the potion's value was truly that great, then Leader Tang, as its creator, was worth winning over!
What's more!
The Slane Theocracy's recent actions had also made Holy Queen Calca very angry.
"Who would be suitable?" Once Holy Queen Calca made up her mind, she was no longer indecisive.
"Remedios, 'Pink' Isandro, and 'Black' Pavel." Kelart named the candidates she had already decided upon.
Three Heroic-rank individuals!
"Alright, I'll set off immediately."
Remedios showed no intention of refusing and turned to leave in a hurry.
Seeing this, Kelart gave a strange smile.
"Isandro is prudent and Pavel has a good relationship with Leader Tang. There's no problem with those two, but Remedios..."
Although Holy Queen Calca didn't stop her, she was a little worried.
Remedios's personality was indeed a problem. She felt that the most suitable person to go to the Theocracy was actually Kelart, who stood before her.
"Hehe, Your Majesty."
Kelart's eyes narrowed, no longer hiding her sinister look. "Some things are only suitable for my sister to do."
"I'm a bit too rational. Only someone with my sister's personality can raise a ruckus without any inhibitions. Otherwise, the people of the Slane Theocracy might really look down on us."
Holy Queen Calca was taken aback. Staring at Kelart, she suddenly whispered gossipingly, "Besides that reason, do you have some other little scheme in mind?"
"For example, Remedios and that Leader Tang?"
Kelart blinked. "What are you talking about, Your Majesty."
............
Abelion Hills.
A valley deep in the Southern Mountains.
A large-scale magic ritual appeared in the depths of the valley.
"By utilizing the characteristics of the Wild Transformation Ritual and combining it with the Sacrifice: Spiral of Death Ritual I got from the Alliance Leader, I should be able to stabilize my transformed state."
Tang Zheng stood in the center of the ritual, a weary look on his face, rubbing his temples as he mentally rehearsed the entire process.
This was a plan that was theoretically feasible, based on his several days of research.
"I'll know if it's a success once I try. It's just a bit of a waste of this precious ancient fire dragon's corpse."
Tang Zheng's gaze fell on the massive, crimson body lying in the ritual not far away.
He was also very short on dragon corpses, and they were extremely limited in the entire Otherworld.
He walked over to the Dragon Man Ladon.
Tang Zheng took out the "Blend Potion" and poured it into the other's mouth. The next moment, he quickly thrust out his hand, plunged it into the other's chest, and grasped the beating heart of the True Dragon Lord.
Infuse it with Magic Power and activate!
*Whoosh!*
A golden light enveloped the two of them.
The massive figure of a golden dragon appeared on the ground. It spread its wide dragon wings, and a fierce wind scattered outwards as an astonishing pressure and aura filled the air.
It caused the battered, broken trees and branches in the valley to rustle and sway violently!
"Retch~"
The golden dragon made a vomiting sound, and the Dragon Man Ladon was expelled from its abdomen.
The next moment!
The golden dragon's body was like a punctured balloon, rapidly collapsing and deflating.
While controlling the massive body, Tang Zheng heavily lifted a dragon claw and stomped it onto the magic circle on the ground.
——*Swish!*
The magic ritual triggered instantly. A blue light mixed with red began to emerge, forming a translucent magic circle that enveloped the corpse of the ancient fire dragon.
In an instant!
The fire dragon's huge body seemed to melt, turning into streams of blood-like energy that began to surge toward the golden dragon that was Tang Zheng's transformation.
"Step one is a success!"
Joy surfaced in Tang Zheng's heart.
The "Wild Transformation Ritual" was incapable of consuming any species or creature other than wild beasts and monsters. He wanted to bypass the ritual's rigid rules.
With his current knowledge, he couldn't alter the ritual itself, so he could only try to alter the creature being consumed.
And Tang Zheng's solution was simple: sprinkle the "Blend Potion" on the ancient fire dragon's corpse to make it unstable!
Then, using the power of the "Sacrifice: Spiral of Death Ritual," completely decompose the ancient fire dragon's corpse!
*Rumble!*
A dragon corpse decomposed rapidly, and the resulting energy fluctuations continuously battered the surroundings.
Fortunately, this place was located in the deepest part of the mountain range, so this commotion wouldn't be detected by others!
With the infusion of the ancient fire dragon's power.
The golden dragon's deflated body received the support of a similar power, stopped shrinking, and even faintly began to fill out again!
