Chapter 257: Antonio’s Breakthrough
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At a manor on Mount Creation.
“Master, I just received news that Monte Town is hosting a banquet for Young Master Watson at Mount Creation’s highest level. He has created a potion that allows people to evolve and get immortality. Other manors are preparing to head there after hearing about this. Should we go and take a look?”
A guard exclaimed as he barged into a room where a manor owner was resting.
“What did you say? Immortality?”
The manor owner was hugging two young ladies and drinking wine. When he heard his subordinate’s words, his eyes widened, and he stood up abruptly.
“Yes, Master. That was what Mayor Gerant, Monte Town’s mayor, had said! I heard that there’s a limit to how many of those potions that Young Master Watson could make. We won’t have any if we’re late to the party. Plus, we need to keep track of the number of wishes we had done on the ring; have you made any yet today, Master?”
“I’ve used up all three of my wishes today. What should I do?”
The manor owner looked troubled. At that moment, the guard smiled and revealed the Wish for the World ring on his finger. “It’s alright, Master. I haven’t used mine today, so you can have it.”
“That’s very thoughtful of you! There’s no time to lose. Let’s get to Monte Town now.”
The manor owner pushed the ladies away, tidied up his clothes, and walked out of the manor without another word.
Similar things happened all over the mountain.
A few farmers stood in a field at the foot of the mountain and chatted.
“Did you guys hear? Young Master Watson is currently fusing potions at a banquet in Monte Town. They say that the potion can raise a person’s level to platinum-tier. It looks like Young Master Watson is no longer satisfied with just making platinum or diamond-tier items.”
Another farmer said, “Your news is outdated. I heard that Young Master Watson’s potions could also evolve a person to a higher life form and give them immortality.”
“What kind of life form?” the other farmer asked curiously.
The previous farmer replied, “I don’t know. At the very least, it’s comparable to Young Master Watson’s giant dragon and phoenix. Perhaps even stronger than those two. After all, Young Master Watson is known as the reincarnation of a G.o.d. It’s not strange for him to achieve that at all.”
“Do you guys think that Young Master Watson can turn us into G.o.ds?”
That was a bold idea, and the entire farm fell silent. Then, someone said, “It’s hard to say. If Young Master Watson is the reincarnation of a G.o.d, then it might be possible for him to turn us into G.o.ds. After all, dragons and phoenixes don’t have eternal life. Only G.o.ds can live forever.”
Mount Creation covered more than half of the border. Typically, it would take a few days for the news to spread. However, the magical pa.s.sages that Watson had built everywhere on Mount Creation could transport one to anywhere at any time. The news about Watson creating an angel had spread throughout the mountain within a few hours.
“Didn’t you hear? Young Master Watson’s potion had successfully evolved someone into a platinum-tier mythical creature—an angel.”
“Of course, but I heard that Young Master Watson created a large number of angels.”
“That’s incorrect! I heard that Young Master Watson is a G.o.d now. He had successfully opened the door to the divine realm, so he summoned many angels! Praising Young Master Watson is like praising the sun.”
The news not only spread quickly, but it also became more and more ridiculous. By the time it reached Watson’s ears, the rumors had already turned into that.
“Watson, I heard that you are the reincarnation of a G.o.d, that Mount Creation is your divine kingdom in the lower realms, and you want to turn everyone into angels. Is that true?”
Sylvan had asked that question, and Antonio was beside him. The two of them stared at Watson in surprise.
They had been studying the Absolute Explosion spell together; they wanted to understand the insights of diamond-tier elites. Finally, they heard someone talking about Watson, and the information they got was so ridiculous that they had to ask Watson about it.
“Master, Lord Sylvan, who told you that?”
Watson was helping others to create the Blessings of G.o.ds and Demons. When he heard Sylvan’s words, he coughed violently. He was speechless.
A G.o.d’s reincarnation? Divine kingdom? The rumor was too outrageous! However, it was true that he wanted to turn everyone into angels.
“We thought so too, but can you explain what you’re doing?”
In a haze, Sylvan pointed in front of Watson. A person who had just received the blessing of the G.o.ds had six pure white wings on his back after he consumed it. As he sailed into the sky with an ecstatic expression on his face, a gleaming halo appeared above his head.
Many similar six-winged fellows were hovering in the sky, emitting a n.o.ble and holy radiance as they chatted with each other. There were five to six hundred of them, and there was a long line in front of Watson, holding something that seemed to be the Spring of Life in their hands. They waited anxiously.
Sylvan was the border count, so he was well-informed. He recognized the ent.i.ty floating above his head as an angel with only a single glimpse. Watson was ma.s.s-producing angels, even though the mighty race was already extinct since ancient times.No wonder other people thought of Watson as the reincarnation of a G.o.d.
Who else could produce angels besides G.o.ds?
“Lord Sylvan, what I did was not as shocking as the rumors suggested. Miss Anna had a bottle of water from the Spring of Life, and I wanted to remove its side effects. Finally, I accidentally fused a potion that could grant people eternal life and upgrade them to platinum-tier without any side effects.”
Watson responded modestly, but his words made Antonio and Sylvan look at each other as they gasped at the same time.
There were no side effects from upgrading a person to platinum-tier, and they were even made immortals, yet Watson still said that what he did was not outrageous.
“Watson, regardless of how you did it, you created such a powerful potion without informing Sylvan and me. Isn’t that a little inappropriate?” Antonio said solemnly as he stroked his nonexistent beard.
“I’m sorry, Master. I forgot to do that.” Watson scratched his head awkwardly. He thought since everyone on Mount Creation would get the chance to fuse with the Spring of Life anyway, it did not matter who would do it first. However, he could not remain silent when Antonio said that.
Watson activated one of his skills and made a wish to gain a vast pool of water from the Spring of Life and used his Wish for the World ring. He combined it with Lilith’s blood and bone marrow to form the Blessings of the G.o.ds and Demons potion. Then, he gave it to Antonio and Sylvan.
Each of his ten fingers had a Wish for the World ring. He could make thirty wishes a day, and he had yet to make his first wish that day.
“Master, Lord Sylvan, this is the potion I mentioned. As compensation for failing to inform you about it, I will not ask you for the materials for those two potions.”
Antonio and Sylvan looked at the black and green beads in their hands as they felt a violent fluctuation enter their bodies. After they stared at the beads for a while, they stuffed them into their mouths.
Boom!
Before Sylvan had any reaction, a m.u.f.fled sound came from Antonio’s body. His fair skin began to crack, and rays of bright white light emitted from the fissure. At the same time, a terrifying aura that surpa.s.sed the platinum tier descended.
At that moment, Antonio had broken the curse that plagued him and advanced to the diamond tier.
