Chapter 378: Pill of Servitude

Sam looked through the information of what he got.

It is the information on a pill, including its recipe and even the history of the pill making and the invention of the pill.

The Pill is called the Pill of Servitude.

This is a pill that creates a contract of a master and servant between two people.

As for the duration of the contract, it depends on the manufacturing of the pill. It is decided by varying the number of certain ingredients.

But this is not what surprised him the most.

History before the invention of this pill, there are many types of other pills which are made in an attempt to make this pill and one of the pills in that is the Undead Plague.

It is one of the first inventions in an attempt to make the servitude pill.

It was told that the person who invented the pill experimented a lot of soul and dark element related herbs and beast blood. He focused mostly on the beasts which have necromancy abilities. Although they cannot be a full-fledged necromancer, some beasts do have the ability to create some undead either upon their death or in some special circumstances.

The creator might have thought of using the unwavering loyalty of the undead to its master and the servitude of the soul to achieve his goal.

But it didn't work. He did notice the loyalty objective, but the people who are under this pill doesn't have any form of common sense left.

Their brain is completely useless and apart from that, they lose their spiritual energy usage and only gaining physical strength before they turn undead.

After some modifications, he made the second pill under the undead plague category which allowed them to absorb energy from each other.

Sam chuckled after he went through all the information in it.

There are a bunch of recipes under this Servitude pill which are as deadly as the Undead Plague and some are even deadly than this Undead Plague.

If he should say, the Servitude Pill is the weakest of all of them. The servitude pill doesn't have any other effects than the servitude.

The recipient of the pill doesn't have any effects on his brain, his strength or even his character.

Sam was actually impressed by what the creator achieved, he was able to create more deadly, more versatile, and more lethal drugs, but he didn't stop his pursuit to create a simple servitude pill.

That too, a temporary servitude pill.

That tenacity is very rare to be seen. Generally, people would go complacent at the fact that they created a more effective one by a fluke and think that it is their ability.

But what this creator did is something most people wouldn't be able to do. He treated the rest of the deadly products he came up with as failures. He treated any result other than what he aimed as a failure, even if the result has more variations and more uses than what he originally desired.

After looking through so many recipes, Sam is actually surprised to see that these pills are created by herbs that are common.

If you take their ranks and grades into account, they are considered rare overall. They are made of Rank-6 and some even had rank-7 herbs.

But if we compare those herbs to the rest of the herbs of the same rank, they are considered quite common.

Another thing is the main ingredients of these pills is not the herbs, rather the beast blood. From the amount of beast blood that is being used, if he didn't know any better, Sam would have thought that it is actually a potion recipe.

An ordinary pill master will definitely think that it is impossible to create a solid pill, but the catch they have to condense these types of blood into solid to achieve the pill.

The efforts the creator put behind this pill is not something that can be expressed in words like excellent.

This is a symbol to indicate the epitome of the dedication of a person who put his soul into the craft.

Sam started studying the information regarding the pills. When he encountered the followers and conducting the research, he didn't go through the library because there is too much information. He was confident that he would be able to identify something similar and find some information.

But at that moment, it is extremely urgent for him to deal with the followers and Old one to save his city, he didn't have enough time to go through all this information and now he felt glad that he didn't turn towards the library.

Because the solutions provided by the information here for the undead plague will not work in this world.

Although the beast blood and the herbs used for making this are quite common, the cure for this is extremely extravagant to the point, even Sam started sweating.

The ingredients required would be hard to obtain even in some of the upper-realms. There is no way for him to use them to create a solution using the resources of this empire. He might have even given up on cure completely if he has concentrated on this.

After going through, all the information Sam is feeling hesitant. He wanted to make this Servitude Pill. This would solve all his problems and he can even use it for the long term.

But the forced servitude, the forced loyalty is not something that interested him. He would rather have a person stay loyal to him in fear, in respect. That would be good because all it takes his ability, but to force someone to stay loyal with some medicine.

Sam always felt that it is beneath him.

But now the circumstances are forcing him to make a decision. He is extremely conflicted.

After a long time, Sam did find a solution for one of his problems and that is to create his own force.

He did have this thought for a long time, but he didn't find the correct time to do so. If not for the fact these people are pissing him off so much, Sam wouldn't even find it necessary at the moment.

His original plan was to focus on the city to see if there are any problems in running it and making sure that there are no problems and create the most efficient and problem-free environment.

But these former tower heads and the major powers are now just being a pain in the ass.

But creating a force is a very large matter which consumes a lot of time.

He has to find the current people to target. He couldn't just randomly recruit and train.

Sam had a completely different plan in recruiting people, but if he has to create a force in his current situation, there is no way he would be able to create something that would be most efficient and most useful according to his preferences.

He would have to recruit some already strong people and he even needs some extremely strong ones.

The major powers are of no joke.

After some deep thinking, Sam came to a decision. He is not extremely willing but he couldn't do anything about it.

One has to act according to circumstances and do what needs to be done.

With that, he came out of the tower and met with Philip. He gave him a list of herbs and asked him to gather them.

By now, Sam already has a certain idea whether these herbs would be available in the empire or not and he gave the list of all the available herbs to Philip.

As for the herbs that are not available, Sam has other ways to obtain it. Because some of the herbs are actually only available in the Herb Garden which is one of the major powers and coincidentally these herbs also part of installment the major powers have to send.

But there are some special herbs, which he cannot obtain in either place and he tried another way.

He contacted Zeke who is within the city. He was appointed as the supervisor of the current project of Sam's Space gate network and he would be in this city and oversees the first Space gate construction in Sam's city.

Sam met him and asked.

"I want the Space gate association to help me with something."

"What would that be?"

Zeke is extremely surprised and delighted, at this moment, what he or rather the whole Space gate association wants is Sam's favor and trust, so he would definitely help.

"Well, I am in need of some herbs and I couldn't find them within the Western continent, but I am certain that they would be available in other empires. So, I want you guys to buy these herbs for me. I will pay double the price. You can keep one share as a service charge."

"No need, no need. You can just pay for it normally. It is not such a big deal. Currently, all the people within the Space gate association are moving around various empires, we can just buy them on the way. There is no need to pay the extra charge."
