HAIL THE KING !
Chapter 76.1: There is one more bottle (1)
Since more than ten days ago, the second small commander of the King's Guards was promoted by the young King Alexander to the number one seat in the Military of Chambord. Brook now has control over all the military forces in Chambord and is referred to as one of the [Two Gurus] in Chambord along with the new Chief Minister of Bast. The future of one star warrior Brook skyrocketed and became one of the most influential figures in Chambord, above everyone but one. Even the wealthiest merchants who didn't even want to admit it before would now put a big smile on their faces, often inviting Brook to their party, and sending him gifts and cute waitresses. People visit the place from morning to night every day. The hinge on the door was almost worn out because of that.
If it was someone else, this huge change in status would probably make them dizzy and carried away. However, the warrior born in this poor family finally showed his integrity, courage, and flexibility. For anyone who tries to network and make friends with him on purpose, the principle is quite surprising – he will not accept or coldly reject them. He will satisfy everyone who comes to his door.
He used exhausting efforts to achieve this the current – Chambord was very weak after the war and needed to recover. Moreover, in half a year, Chambord had to face another life and death challenge in the Zenit Military Practice. King Alexander said that the goal in front of them was to unify all the strength and power they could and build Chambord quickly with the least resources. Therefore, Brook did not want to start a hidden conflict between the young king and the old school nobles. At least he had to maintain a shallow hospitality.
In addition to burying his head to straighten out military affairs, Brook spent much of his time reforming military planning. That was his main goal for the next thirty days. King Alexander had mentioned some requirements and also vaguely revealed some amazing ideas. Brook carefully studied and thought through these ideas; the more he thought about them, the more excited he became. There are many things he never considered. He was even confused and clueless when the king mentioned them for the first time. But slowly, he felt that the idea and plan were perfect. After adjusting those ideas to suit Chambord's current situation, Chambord would undergo a major change to get better.
Of course, as the strength in his hand grew heavier, Brook also felt an unprecedented immense pressure.
After King Alexander returned to normal, his strength and long-term vision increased at an astounding pace. Recently, during a chat in their spare time at the Civil and Military Academy of Chambord, the, lampard's number one fighter actually implicitly admitted that the King's strength had risen to a level he couldn't even foresee. He might not even be able to defeat Alexander.
That puts people like Brook and Pierce under a lot of pressure.
They knew that if they wanted to follow the king and fight and bleed for Chambord, they had to increase their strength; it was important. If they could not keep up with their great king, they would gradually be abandoned and eventually become a useless person.
During this time, strongmen like Pierce and Drogba “got” a series of strange training methods from the King and began to train themselves excessively every day. Brook on the other hand is busy with military affairs and has limited time to train. He gradually felt increasingly left behind and there was nothing he could do.
When one day he was struggling, Fei sent his bodyguard Fernando-Torres to Brook along with the king's order – “Master. Brook, His Majesty has asked you to head straight to his palace. There is something very important that His Majesty would like to discuss. ”
Brook is missing; he doesn't remember Fei previously telling him that he wanted to discuss an important matter today. He followed Torres to the main palace.
After he stepped into the palace, he was shocked to learn that the First Commander of the King's Guards Peter-Cech was sitting on a chair and talking to King Alexander. Except for the two of them, there was no one else in the palace.
“Haha Brook, you arrived here on time. I have something very important for you to see. ”
Upon seeing Brook's arrival, Fei laughed as he walked down from his throne surrounded by two lion-like monster statues. He patted Brook on the shoulder and suddenly opened his palm. Cech and Brook both felt something flashing before their eyes when a small green bottle appeared in Fei's palm. The green liquid was stored in an elongated crystal bottle.
"Hehe, this is a hard energy potion that I recently gathered ...." Fei explained with his nonsense. He spoke proudly, “But I prefer to call it 【Rubuan Hulk】. Hehehe, this is a very magical herb ……. '' Fei paused for a bit to create more tension.
“【Rubuan Hulk】? The name was very strange ..... ”Brook could feel the magic power of light hiding inside the potion. He subconsciously asked, "Your Majesty, what is the special effect of this herb?"
"Of course, Hehehehe, it has the effect of increasing one's strength instantly several times ..." Fei wanted to show off. "It sounds like a [Crazy Banquet] put together by a magic apothecary, but the difference between the 【Hulk】 Banquet and that low-grade [Crazy Potion] is that the effect of increasing power is permanent!"
"Repair permanent?" Cech and Brook were both flabbergasted. They stared at the potion in Fei's hands and panted, “How is it possible? Could this be one of the epic potions from the legends? "
Under the classification of mages in Azeroth Continent, there was a branch of magic apothecary. This magical apothecary could concoct many strange potions. The herbs all had different effects, and because of the difference in effects and ingredients required for each herb, there were many ranks from low to high. The epic potion from the legends was one of the high-ranked potions. They all had incredible effects and there were some recorded epic potions that could permanently increase one's strength ……
But it's all items from legends. Epic potions could only be made by epic-tiered magic apothecaries, they also required a lot of rare and precious raw materials. This raw material would even be considered rare by the super powerful tier 8 and 9 Empires on the continent. Fei casually took out a potion that he claimed had the same effect as the epic potion, so Cech and Brook naturally had difficulty trusting their eyes and ears.
"Ah? Epic Potion? How could it be, I had no precious raw materials to make such a potion ..... ”Fei read many books in the Royal Library, so he knew what epic potion the two were talking about. He rolled his eyes and rejected the idea with a smile, “Hehe, although 【Hulk Potion】 has a very strong effect, it has terrible side effects …… that's why I hesitated for a long time before telling you about it. If you can survive through the side effects, the real effects will definitely be satisfying. The potion is here, if you want, you can decide among yourself who wants to try it. ”
"A terrible side effect?"
Brook and Cech looked at each other in unison. The surprise in their eyes was a little calm. They believe more in this explanation. If the herb had no side effects and could permanently and perfectly increase one's strength, then this 【Hulk】 Banquet would definitely be classed as one of the epic herbs; it would be too precious.
Brook hesitated for a few seconds, and suddenly raised his head and said, "Let me give it a try!"
The date of the Military Exercises of the Zenit Empire is approaching. There was no place where Chambord could retreat. If Chambord lost this event, their kingdom would be lost. Although Chambord has two trump cards – Lampard and King Alexander, the military drills are based on a total score for ten games. There was no way the Kingdom could rely on just the two of them. If Chambord wanted an overall victory, the strength of others would have to increase as well. Time was tight, and for Gordon-Brook who with a single mind focused on increasing his strength and fighting alongside the king, the potion in front of him might be dangerous, but maybe it could be his last and only chance.
Brook made up his mind and grabbed a bottle of green potion.
