I Received System to Become Dragonborn-Chapter 212 New Discovery
The rain is falling harder. It looks as if those dark clouds were pouring the water it had held back for several hundred years at the same time onto the earth tonight.
The wind began to follow. Lightning in the distance shouted together creating an eerie melody.
Tonight's storm welcomed the experiment they were holding.
It's welcoming, or actually cursing.
Because if you look at the rain that is falling tonight, nature seems to be sending a message that they don't agree.
However, for scientists, it did not cross their minds at all. What they saw at this time were only the natural conditions that were quite violent. It's not something bad.
Instead, Thomas considered this a blessing from nature.
Because when they wanted to carry out the experiment in the rain, it was raining heavily so they could see better test results.
They wanted to know how strong Steve's fire magic and Annie's ice magic would be under this downpour.
According to Conrad's explanation, the Elves weren't affected by natural conditions because their Magic was on a different level.
There even existed Elves who could manipulate nature to their heart's content if they were strong enough.
In the other world, the limits for the Elves are very few.
However, they didn't know what would happen to the humans in this world. Tonight was the time they would find out.
Steve felt the burden getting heavier. As if something was pressing his body from above.
He tried to strengthen his Magic but to no avail. The force pressing down on him became even stronger.
The reddish aura surrounding Steve's body grew thinner. Even on Thomas' camera, the aura was almost invisible.
"Looks like we got an expected result from subject number 1, huh," Thomas said.
Thomas and Conrad had predicted that Steve would not be able to stand under the pouring rain.
That's because his Magic attribute is fire. It's only natural that fire would weaken under this heavy downpour of water.
Moreover the fire from Magic that has not yet developed. 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m
"But Annie showed a different result," Conrad said.
"Who's Annie?" Thomas asked in an indifferent tone. "Oh, subject number 2? Yeah, she showed a much better result."
"That's because she has the ice attribute. It turns out that in this world, Magic is still limited to its affinity and ailment."
Thomas smiled. "This is a wonderful experiment. You can see that we have a new discovery tonight."
Conrad turned his head and found Thomas smiling happily. Even though his eyes looked tired but his lips were wide open.
Conrad looked forward again, at the struggling subjects.
The difficulties they experienced were different.
Steve was having a hard time fighting the pressure of the rain water that kept pounding his body.
So that his Magic power weakened quite drastically.
However, Annie has a different difficulty condition. She wasn't battered by the rain. Instead, she gained strength from the rainwater that was coming toward her. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖
Her ice attribute Magic power was getting stronger. The blue aura was getting thicker and bigger causing the frozen water around it to also grow more and more.
By now Annie had a large pile of ice lying around. Created from water that instantly freezes as it passes through her bluish aura.
That would probably be good for Steve who already has good control over his powers. But it will be very difficult for Annie.
She had barely even been able to summon her own Magic power just now.
Even so, she had to bear the brunt of the surge of power that suddenly came and grew bigger.
'This is probably going to go bad.'
Conrad suspected that soon Annie would lose control of her powers and go on a rampage again. After that, he didn't know what happened.
Conrad wondered. Will he still be able to save Annie if that happens? Maybe her mind even suffered irreversible damage.
"Thomas, I think we should stop this now," Conrad said to
Thomas in a serious tone.
"Why? We got good results!" Thomas looked displeased.
"If we keep it up, Annie might... subject number 2 might go on a rampage like before. If that happens, maybe we should put her to rest for a long time."
Thomas pursed his lips, he thought for a moment. Then said. "I guess you're right."
Conrad breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that. Then Thomas talked to the other scientists and crew members.
"We can disable the cage now," Thomas said.
There are several puzzling questions from scientists who disagree. But Thomas said what Conrad had told him and they immediately agreed.
Realizing the risk of losing a successful subject is something scary and unimaginable for them.
The scientist on duty rushes to turn off the electricity surrounding Steve and Annie. But something surprising happened.
Annie's screams were heard.
"AAAAAAAAAA!!!"
The scientists froze. Thomas was also shocked so his eyes widened staring at the camera.
On the other hand, Conrad tightened his jaw. He had expected this to happen. But this turned out to be much quicker than he had expected.
If she is already at a stage like this. Turning off the electric fence is only going to make the situation worse.
Annie's Magic power could overflow so much that what they were trying to prevent by putting up the electric pillars would be futile.
"Stop it!" Conrad shouted at the scientist in charge of stopping the electricity from the pillars.
The scientist immediately nodded knowing what was going on. They are not stupid to not understand what is happening now.
The scientist immediately stopped his intention to turn off the machine.
"What should we do now? Should we use 'that'?" Thomas asked.
Conrad paused for a few moments to think.
"Not yet," Conrad said a moment later.
"Are you sure?" Thomas confirmed.
"Yes. I will try to go there and try to handle it."
Thomas frowned. "Are you sure? subject number 2 looks very unstable."
"Using that tool will do more damage," Conrad said.
"Alright, then. Do what you want," Thoma said.
