Chapter 727
Right then, many of them began showing signs of poisoning. Some felt dizzy, and others experienced severe
abdominal pain. Some even had cramps.
Although their symptoms were different, it would affect their production of the medicinal pill. But giving up was not
an option. They could only grit their teeth and continue.
“Who do you think will be number one today, Dr. Watkins?” an elder with a white beard asked.
“Preston and Miranda are performing well and gifted in the medical field, so they are considered geniuses. But I
think the young man will do better.” Linden looked at Dustin.
“Him?” The elder followed and looked at Dustin too
Then, he asked, curious, “But Dr. Watkins, he’s a nobody. Maybe he was lucky in the previous round. He’s still not on
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe same level as Preston and Miranda.”
No matter their family background, talents, or medical accomplishments, they were not on the same level. And
Dustin’s good luck would not change anything.
“Hahaha… We’ll find out soon enough.” Linden smiled and said nothing else. He sat and watched. He refused to
believe that someone who could see through his plans was just a nobody.
“Bang!” After a moment, an explosion was heard in the hall.
A man’s alchemy furnace burst when he made a mistake. The hot liquid, burning charcoal, and
furnace fragments splattered all over his face.
“Ah!” The man screamed in pain as he clutched his burned face.
“Somebody bring him away!” The invigilator waved his hand, and several members of the Stoneray Order moved
to help the man.
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
As the first person was carried away, several others had their furnaces explode as well. They had burned faces and
were carried out too.
Some made mistakes because of the poison’s effects and the pressure they were under to save themselves. Some
burnt their pills, some could not solidify their pills, and some of their furnaces exploded
The number of people who were eliminated increased quickly.
“Done!” When there were still 30 minutes left, Preston shouted as he showed the crowd the red pill
he had taken from the furnace.
The invigilator walked to Preston and looked at his pill. Then he praised. “Not bad, you have indeed produced a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCurax And it is a good quality one!”
“A good quality Curax? That’s amazing!”
“As expected of Dr. Darby’s best student! Impressive!”
“He managed to produce a Curax of good quality even though he was poisoned! That’s amazing!”
Everyone was shocked to hear what the invigilator said.
Preston quickly completed the task under such stressful conditions. It showed how amazing his medical skills and
accomplishments were.
“Done!” Not long after Preston was done, Miranda finished hers. The pill she produced was like Preston’s in both
looks and properties.
“Very well done. A good quality Curax too!” The invigilator nodded, very pleased. The two geniuses from Asclepia
had not disappointed him.
As time continued, others successfully produced the Curax. Yet, they mostly failed. Soon, one hour was almost over.
“Dr. Watkins, it seems like Preston and Miranda are winning. As for that young man you had your eyes on, I guess
he won’t pass this test if he hasn’t produced the pill by now.” The elder smiled. Suddenly, Dustin’s furnace exploded
with a loud bang.
