Dominating Evolution Of The Cosmos 32 Seven-Colored Egg

Everything that they needed had been purchased. Steve was also interested in acquiring another item that would be of great help to him.

"Mr. Duncan, I would like to buy the "Intermediate Practices of Energy Absorption." Is it available for sale at the Masa Mall?" Steve asked.

Just by looking at Kenneth's practice of the method, one could tell that the speed of cosmic force absorption had been doubled when using the intermediate as compared to the fundamental method!

Don't underestimate the one fold increase! If the "Fundamental Practices of Energy Absorption" method would take a month to reach a level of 100% cell activation, the "Intermediate Practice of Energy Absorption" method would only need 15 days to achieve the same result!

Steve figured that this was the equivalent of cutting down the amount of time taken to half. A lot of things could be done with the time saved!

Steve was hard-pressed for time at the moment, as the recruits' ranking battle was just two days away. Also, the task of hunting down Demon Collic had to be completed within the month. If he could achieve a level of 100% cell activation in 15 days, he would have ample time to make other preparations, thus greatly increasing his chances of completing the task!

Mr. Duncan chuckled bitterly, then said, "Mr. Steve, there's something you need to know. The 'Intermediate Practices of Energy Absorption' method is not something you can buy with money. Even if you have the money, the knowledge would have to be retained by the Chamber of Commerce Union for insider trading. It would also be unavailable on the black market, even if someone were to offer one hundred million in original gold for it.

"One hundred million in original gold?! The 'Intermediate Practices of Energy Absorption' is so expensive!" Steve gasped.

The "Intermediate Practice of Energy Absorption" was extremely valuable and would likely cause a great stir, as it was a newly created product. It was already considered to be a sky-high price for a bottle of enhanced Subatomic Serum to cost a few hundreds of thousands of dollars. This was because the enhanced Subatomic Serum was unique and newly launched into the market.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, with the efficacy of the enhanced Subatomic Serum, it could only fetch a maximum price of one hundred thousand dollars per bottle. Also, the enhanced Subatomic Serum was still unable to achieve ma.s.s production level. Hence, it would take forever to earn 100 million in original gold by selling enhanced Subatomic Serum alone.

"It seems that Mr. Steve does not know that the difference between the 'Intermediate Practices of Energy Absorption' and the 'Fundamental Practices of Energy Absorption' methods. Other than the huge difference in their speeds of absorption, there are more important differences," Duncan said in a serious tone.

"The 'Fundamental Practices of Energy Absorption' has been strictly controlled by the military, schools, and the n.o.bles, making it difficult for commoners to access it. It goes without saying that the more valuable "Intermediate Practice of Energy Absorption' would face the same obstacles."

Steve had never considered this point until Duncan mentioned it. The "Fundamental Practices of Energy Absorption" was already so strictly controlled, he could not imagine the restrictions that would be placed on the more valuable "Intermediate Practices of Energy Absorption," especially as it was no longer available in the market, having already been cla.s.sified as a strategic substance!

"'Intermediate Practices of Energy Absorption' could a.s.sist those strong evolved beings with a level of 100% cell activation to more easily feel the changes in the cosmic force," Duncan added. "There are many other magical effects of the 'Intermediate Practices of Energy Absorption' method that I don't even know of."

Even Duncan himself did not practice the "Intermediate Practices of Energy Absorption" method. As such, he was unclear about the huge differences in its efficacy.

However, there was no doubt that the "Intermediate Practices of Energy Absorption" method was much more precious than the "Fundamental Practices of Energy Absorption" method. Steve sighed and could only give up the idea for the time being.

"In fact, Mr. Steve… There is still hope of obtaining the "Intermediate Practices of Energy Absorption" method. The Pharmacists Guild possessed it. So, if you contribute enough or spend a sky-high amount of money, you would be able to obtain it, " Duncan said.

After hearing this, Steve was even more certain that he must join the Pharmacists Guild. Duncan then place the purchased items in a compressed capsule. There, the objects were compressed by molecular and spatial principles.

Items placed in a compressed capsule would shrink in physical size, but their ma.s.ses did not change. Also, these compressed capsules were extremely expensive, some costing up to 100,000 in original gold! However, the main advantage was that a capsule could be recycled.

…...

Returning from the Masa Mall, the first thing that Steve did was to check the status of the seven-colored egg. Among the treasures that he had previously acquired, Steve had not paid much attention to the seven-colored egg.

However, he finally realized that the seven-colored egg was the most important of all the treasures. In fact, if one added every other treasure up together, the total value would still be far inferior to it!

Steve did not know how to store the seven-colored egg, thus obeyed the instructions that were given to him by the Heart of the Universe. He placed the seven-colored egg into the bottle and soaked it in water. After that, he extracted the seven-colored energy serum from the bottle of soaked water.

"What do you think it really is?" Steve grew more curious about the seven-colored egg.

"The item has not hatched yet... no information at the moment," The Heart of the Universe replied.

Steve collected a lot of information, but he had never heard of anything like pre-hatching. Now, the seven-colored egg could produce a hundred drops of seven-colored energy serum every day.

As Steve's success rate continued to rise, more seven-colored energy serum would be left unused in the future. So, Steve used the remainder of it as a strategic reserve.

"Is there any way to speed up its incubation?" Steve was very curious as to what this magical seven-colored egg would hatch.

"Under my observation, its daily energy index is growing. It has reached the opportunity of incubation, but there is still a lack of an opportunity for it to hatch." As the Heart of the Universe spoke, Steve's eyes seemed to be carrying an energy index detector.

The detector was focused on the seven-colored egg. Each small seven-colored egg contained an amazing energy. It looked like the core of the sun and had countless reserves of complex energy inside it.

"According to my calculations, its energy value is comparable to a Neutron Star. The energy that erupts from it would be comparable to a small black hole," the Heart of the Universe said.

Steve's face turned pale. Then he said, "Isn't it dangerous? If it explodes, everything here would be destroyed!"

"Master, you are wrong. If it explodes, it can destroy only half of the Wander City State," the Heart of the Universe calmly said.

"Your jokes are not funny at all." Steve's forehead broke out in a cold sweat. He suddenly had the urge to throw the seven-colored egg away.

This thing seems too dangerous! I could be blown up into pieces, if I am not careful.

"Master, please rest a.s.sured. Its energy is stable now, and there is no sign that it will explode. Even if external conditions wanted to destroy it, they would need extraordinary powers to do so. So, it is safe for now," the Heart of the Universe said.

Knowing this gave Steve some relief, but it was still going to be a problem to find ways to hatch it. If it hatched, it might solve Steve's problem of ma.s.s production.
