Chapter 359: Ingesting the Armor Boosting Pill

Right at this moment, Lugh, whose body was already exhausted, suddenly trembled. The source energy sea in his body, which had originally been exhausted, was instantly filled up by a huge amount of source energy. Every cell in his body was emitting a weak itch. It wasn’t just his physical strength… Even his internal organs had been strengthened.

“I’ve broken through!” Lugh was pleasantly surprised to find that he had broken through to the late-stage Black Iron tier. His originally exhausted body had become stronger than before, and his aching head had also become clear.

This time, not only had he refined a perfect-grade Armor Boosting Pill, he had also broken through to the Beast Master realm. This could be said to be a double blessing for Lugh.

Beside him, Eddie looked at Lugh, who was beaming with joy, and a complicated expression appeared on his face. There was joy, sadness, and a little disappointment…

What was gratifying and joyful was that as Lugh’s strength had improved by leaps and bounds, the village head felt happy and proud for him.

The sad and frustrated thing was that Lugh possessed such talent, but because of his failure as the village chief, he was unable to give him a superior environment to grow up in. The road to the future could only be explored by himself.

However, he didn’t want Lugh to notice his weak side. Eddie instantly returned to his original strict father image… He said indifferently, “Not bad. Your talent is really shocking. You are actually able to refine a perfect quality Armor Boosting Pill. This kind of level is something that many Grade 6 alchemists are unable to do.”

“It’s all thanks to Village Chief’s assistance. Otherwise, I would have failed halfway through the refinement.” Lugh’s face was somewhat ruddy as he rubbed the back of his head and said. It was rare for him to hear praise from Eddie’s mouth… Immediately, Lugh, who usually appeared mature, became somewhat shy.

“There’s no need to flatter me. I didn’t put much effort into the refinement this time. Just now, I was not only praising you, but also warning you.” Eddie’s voice was somewhat low as he spoke.

“Village Chief, please enlighten me.” Lugh straightened his attitude and sat upright, waiting for the village chief’s instruction.

“To be honest, your talent is astonishing. Whether it’s Beast Master or alchemist, you’re not inferior to the descendants of the legendary princes and nobles.

“But…” When Eddie spoke up to this point, his tone began to become serious.

“But if you don’t have enough background to support your talent, if it is exposed to the world, you will be devoured by people or forces with evil intentions.”

This was the so-called principle that a tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind, while a river will be swept away by the current.

“When you don’t have enough strength to protect yourself, don’t reveal your high talent. You have to know how to hide your weaknesses, and you have to know how to protect yourself in this world where the strong prey on the weak,” Eddie said earnestly.

“I understand. I will always remember it in my heart!”

Lugh was naturally very convinced by Village Chief Eddie’s words.

Although Lugh was still unable to truly experience the cruelty and bloodshed of the dark side of the world, he definitely had a deep understanding of the village chief who had experienced the hardships of life. Lugh deeply remembered Eddie’s teachings.

After confirming that Lugh had truly listened to his words, Eddie revealed a faint smile, he patted Lugh’s shoulder and said, “Alright, prepare to eat lunch. Rest well later and recover the source energy in your body. At night, I’ll refine another Armor Boosting Pill.”

“Alright, Village Chief.” Lugh nodded and went to eat with Village Chief Eddie.

After eating, Lugh took advantage of the time to recover his source energy to rest and summoned his Big Mouth, preparing to let him consume the Armor Boosting Pill. The perfect quality Armor Boosting Pill surpassed most of the Grade 7 medicinal pills. In terms of price alone, it could reach around 1,000 gold.

This also allowed Lugh to see another path. Becoming a high level alchemist like the village chief in the past. Not only could he quickly develop medicinal pills to raise the strength of the source beasts, he could also earn training funds by refining medicinal pills.

Once such an idea appeared, Lugh immediately decided to implement it.

He added an additional alchemist knowledge to his cultivation program.

Every day, apart from practicing the ‘Mixed Origin Technique’, Lugh also continuously studied and absorbed the knowledge recorded in the ‘Insect Cultivation Secret Technique’, constantly expanding his knowledge reserves, allowing himself to be in a state of continuous learning and improvement every day.

Looking at Big Mouth that was drooling and showing an eager look, Lugh laughed lightly and fed the perfect Grade 7 Armor Boosting Pill to Big Mouth.

Although he didn’t know the specific effect of the Armor Boosting Pill, Big Mouth could feel that the pill had a huge benefit to its body. Therefore, when its master gave it the Armor Boosting Pill, it couldn’t wait to swallow it. It even forgot to chew it.

Big Mouth’s race was the Fly Dragon, which had the innate ability of a fly-type source beast, ‘Fast Food Digestion’. A panacea like the Armor Boosting Pill could maximize its effect under its powerful digestion ability.

[Fast Food Digestion: The innate ability of the fly race, omnivorous source beast. It can absorb the nutrients and energy of any food at a high speed. Even feces and food residue can be quickly converted into nutrients and source energy after entering the mouth.]

After swallowing the Armor Boosting Pill, Big Mouth’s condition changed visibly.

“Roar!”

Big Mouth, who was so excited that it was venting, let out a loud roar. Big Mouth’s body underwent a huge change, and its body grew taller again.

“Its level has increased!” Lugh was stunned when he saw Big Mouth’s change. Then, he used source energy to sense and found that Big Mouth’s level had already reached level 9, and it was just one step away from level 10.

“Not only did it speed up the growth of the beetle, it also directly broke through its level.

“As expected of a Grade 7 pill. Its effects are indeed extraordinary.”

Lugh was very satisfied with the effects of the Armor Boosting Pill. This also fulfilled the famous saying in the Beast Master circle, “A source beast is divided into seven parts to nourish and three parts to train.”

Lugh looked at the newly grown hooks on the Big Mouth. According to Lugh’s memories, this was the characteristic of the Big Mouth Thorn Beetle that was about to grow.

Lugh estimated that when the Big Mouth broke through to level 1, it could be considered to have grown.

At that time, Big Mouth could really be considered a warrior who could both attack and defend. The Thorn Beetle and the Poison Crystal Beetle were both called upper-grade beetles, so they naturally had their own unique points. And this unique point could be seen when Big Mouth broke through to level 10 and reached level 1, then, he could see it for himself.

After Lugh let Big Mouth, who had just broken through, cultivate the newly learned Fly Protein Explosion, he and Village Chief Eddie continued to refine the second Armor Boosting Pill, which was used as a medicinal bath for Big Mouth to apply externally to stabilize the beetle’s high growth rate, it allowed Big Mouth to maintain its high growth rate.

Although the Poison Crystal Beetle was a source beast material that was much more advanced than the hatchet bug’s back beetle, and the difficulty of refining it had also increased by a lot, the second refinement was much smoother than the first.

Not only did he have the experience of refining it once, but the source energy in Lugh’s body had also become more abundant after his strength had risen to the late-stage of Black Iron rank. Therefore, he did not encounter any unexpected problems when refining the second Armor Boosting Pill.

The second Armor Boosting Pill was still of perfect quality. As the main material was the powder ground from the high-grade Poison Crystal Beetle, the second Armor Boosting Pill not only had the effect of accelerating the growth rate of the beetle, but also had the effect of increasing the poison attribute of the Thorn Beetle, it also had the poison attribute of the Thorn Beetle.
