Chapter 820: Chapter 540: With Every Step Comes Difficulty

Ms. Yeshandalah felt a bit embarrassed as she said, "This is a personal matter for me; how can I allow you to spend so much time and effort on it? We have already found a way to suppress the epidemic toxin; it’s not lethal in the short term. The matter of Efanso is more important. Each additional day that your Conqueror Army stays at the Giant Dragon Coast increases the danger. Many cities are feeling threatened and might break with tradition to unite against you."

"Ms. Yeshandalah, I must correct your perspective. This issue is no longer solely your personal matter. Whether or not we ultimately decide to send troops against Efanso, we must find a cure for this plague virus. Having a strong hand in negotiations is an advantage," Gaven seriously replied.

If the specific antidote for this bio-weapon were not in hand, even those trying to stay out of the matter would feel uneasy.

Realizing the truth in this, Ms. Yeshandalah no longer insisted and nodded in agreement, "Alright, if there’s anything we can help with, just say the word."

As the conversation unfolded, she discovered she had no chance to interject. She had no knowledge in this area; the only thing she could provide was the firsthand experience of her own injury.

Daphne took over and answered Gaven’s earlier question, "There’s no need for such trouble. The reason those magic viruses are so stubborn is not due to the viruses themselves but because they fuse with energy. Unless the energy is completely eradicated, there’s no way to kill or expel them completely. Once the energy source issue is resolved, they revert to ordinary viruses, and no ordinary virus exists that cannot be neutralized by a Fourth Circle Magic spell intended for toxin neutralization."

"The ointment Ms. Yeshandalah used proves this point. It’s made by mixing various ingredients to neutralize the toxin."

"Sadly, this ointment can only extract the excessively proliferating active toxins but cannot eradicate the environment that spawned these active toxins. This leads to recurring symptoms and makes a complete cure difficult."

"From this perspective, I’ve been putting the cart before the horse. The priority should be to address the source of the problem, the issue of Negative Energy entwined with the soul." Gaven didn’t consult anyone this time and proactively offered his own method, "For this, we could certainly employ methods similar to those of Clerics. We don’t need to remove it all at once; we just need to significantly suppress the Negative Energy and eradicate the other two elements. Then, when it’s time to deal with Negative Energy, we can use the most common purification techniques."

"If it were that simple, we wouldn’t be worried until now," Fan Ruina added from the side. "We had sought Clerics to eliminate Negative Energy with their purification methods, but when Positive Energy was introduced into the commander’s body, the two would engage in conflict, and the toxins not only didn’t weaken but erupted massively. The wounds on the commander’s face were not so severe before, but a botched attempt to heal them led to the current situation."

"That’s normal," Daphne said matter-of-factly. "Whenever Necromancers use Negative Energy as a medium, their primary consideration is to avoid being expelled by the Positive Energy of Clerics. And these active toxins, which become more potent during the conflict between Positive and Negative Energy, are certainly the prime choice. There are not many such active toxins; currently, there are only a few kinds. I think I’ve figured out which original toxin was used to cultivate this particular variant."

"The difficulty of using external force to remove this poison far exceeds the difficulty of the victim fighting it from within. In the past, Clerics combating plagues stemming from these toxic variants initiated the victim’s positive emotions as much as possible while suppressing their own negative emotions. By reducing the quantity of these active toxins, then helping with antidotes like neutralizing toxins, they aimed to achieve a complete removal."

"However, this time it’s more challenging because Corruption Power is entwined within it. Merely suppressing Negative Energy probably won’t be enough; it might activate the activity of active toxins due to disrupting the internal Balance."

"So, we need a three-pronged approach, and I think I know how to evoke the victim’s positive emotions," said Gaven, brimming with enthusiasm. "We might even use Negative Energy to our advantage, thereby further depleting it. The ease of combining Negative Energy with emotions isn’t limited to negative feelings; it can also bind with positive emotions, though with less preference."

Daphne pondered and asked, "Lord, are you referring to Magic Cocktails?"

Now in Mesnoel, not just Gaven at Weizemay Manor used Ghost Grape Wine to mix Heart-Viewing, Aftertaste, Berserk, and other Magic Cocktails, but at least a dozen Dwarves Elves, including Daphne.

Just as Gaven had initially suspected, the True Wraiths had a unique advantage in this area. By grasping the art of mixology, they easily utilized the affinity of Ghost Grape Wine for Negative Energy to concoct Magic Cocktails that could trigger a range of emotions in individuals, given that as embodiments of Negative Energy, they were inherently inclined that way.

The only regret was that their skills were confined to Mesnoel and Weizemay Manor, preventing Gaven from using their mixology to set up his theme bar as a new financial scheme.

Gaven hadn’t given up looking for other ways, for all restrictions are meant to be overcome. The present inability only suggested his current limitations, not that there was no way. Before Mesnoel was reopened, Weizemay Manor too was confined to a single location.
