Chapter 1319: Medicine
Two days after Sam and Grivon made the trip to the clan.
Sam took a break from his research. He is a bit tired of the grunt work and handed it over to the assistants as he relaxed with some chilled liquor.
Grivon sat beside him in his blue cloaked attire. He just returned from dealing with The Cook.
"You are right. I looked through the memories. He hates both of our clans and played two young masters from two clans and made them fools. He mixed up the intel on both sides. He is not even playing some grand scheme, it is not even formulated in his head yet.
But currently, he is just making sure that both ends got the correct information so that they would destroy some of their opponents' targets. Then he is planning of sending some of ours and some of theirs on some suicide missions by messing the intel."
"Why is he doing that?"
"I don't know exactly why. That is what is most surprising. It seems like there is a voice inside his head indicating his hatred towards both the clans and he is taking revenge. He knew that our clans wronged him, but he doesn't know how."
"That is really interesting, maybe you should have brought him here, I would have loved to take a look."
"Really?"
"Since he is dead, I can say whatever I want. It doesn't make any difference. Anyway, what else do you want, you are disrupting my break."
"Since you said that it would take a long time to make the limb, why don't we talk about my other brothers and sisters?"
"Sure, what kind of revenge do you want next?"
"I saw one of my brothers is having some trouble recently. He is currently going through some rough patches. My intel tells me that his close associates are found dead recently."
"Someone killed the close aides of your brother in the clan?"
"Not in the clan, they were dead in the realm where his business foundation was established. Both of his subordinates died out of the blue. I don't even know whether they are killed or something else happened.
All I know is that they are critical in running his medicine business which I want to enter now. My associate is already getting in touch with some other business organizations. I need your help."
"Medicine? What kind?"
"All kinds, he has a massive grasp on the market and I want to destroy it. I want to take over everything before he finds the proper replacement that could hold his own market."
"I can help you, but I would need another set of people working for me. Your other research projects might be hindered because of this."
"No problem, if I can get that market under my control. I wouldn't worry if all the other research fell behind for a decade."
"It wouldn't take that much. It is not that hard actually. I was actually dabbling in some medical research before my body was stolen and I wanted to introduce to the market under my control first. But I think I can introduce in yours since I would get twenty-five percent, that would also give me a lot of money before I go back to my organization."
"Why? Are you that sure that your organization would become poor in your absence?"
"It would become a bit strained for spirit stones, but not for the reasons you can think of."
"Now that I think about it, why didn't you directly go for your organization? You are just staying within this place and playing around with some dangerous people under Sivan, you could have just gone to your organization and prepared there right?"
"No, I cannot, there is a loophole in the contract I made with Sivan. He would be waiting for me to go to my organization."
"Why is that?"
"In the contract we made, it was written that 'In my absence, the organization wouldn't be attacked for a decade by any of Sivan's forces and his subordinates' forces. If I go back, it wouldn't be considered my absence and he would be able to attack my organization. It is not the time for me to go and meet them.
They are making preparations, but once they were done, I will be out of here."
Sam explained as he started drawing something on paper.
He has some ideas regarding the medicine industry. He wanted to use some of the new techniques he learned to increase the speed and efficiency of medical recovery.
He now has a chance and he can also make some money on the way. He is sure that Philip would be exhausting all the money Sam stashed up and the profits from the organization for the preparations, so it wouldn't hurt to have some more.
"I think, I can give you a prototype in ten days, do you think you can wait for that long?"
"Prototype? you are going for a machine?"
"Yes and no, you will understand when I am done."
Sam then started writing down some recipes for potions and gave them to him.
"These are some of the potions I like very much. I think these would help you if you really cannot hold back for now and this will also give you a chance to establish yourself in the market.
Once you release the star product outside, you will be able to take over the whole market by yourself. Just give me ten days."
"Alright."
Grivon didn't bother much and took the recipes before leaving.
Sam worked on the thing for the next ten days along with some of the assistants he had and it really succeeded perfectly.
Meanwhile, Grivon indeed penetrated the market, and this time with the effort from his business associate, he managed to gain a great deal with just the potions.
But there is something else that he also noticed, some more subordinates of his brother are dead and so are some of the subordinates of other brothers and sisters.
They all died the same and the clan launched a deeper investigation into the whole thing.
"They are thinking it is some kind of deadly microorganism.
This is something Mari Clan often uses. They will throw these kinds of mutated abominations on us and we only find out when some die like this. I believe this is another attempt from them."
Sam was really surprised by the revelation.
At first, he just thought that those subordinates were killed because of the normal clashes between the same clan members. After all, that is a crueler competition than the rest of the world combined.
But it seems like the current situation is a lot more interesting than he thought. He even went as far as thinking that this whole thing might be about him.
As conceited as it sounded, he felt that there is a possibility.
But he didn't mention it and took out the new product he was working on for a while.
It is an Automatic Medicine Injector. It looked like a gun, but it is used for injecting medicine into the body.
Sam decided to take the injection route of the medicine which was very minimally explored in this world.
The injection is mostly used for killing, not for saving, so he decided to even it a bit and make sure it is viable for both of the cases. But there are some added tweaks that would enhance the effect.
"Pick one of the researchers and injure him a bit."
Sam asked as he looked at Grivon.
Grivon looked a bit surprised and reluctant. He looked at the researchers, but instead of reluctance, they are all quite excited. He was confused and picked one of the artisans.
Sam took out a space jade and placed it on one of the grooves of the injector. The artisan cut himself on the arm and just left his natural healing to take care of it, but he injured himself deep enough that it would take a day for it to heal completely.
Grivon looked at him as if he was looking at a crazy person.
He couldn't understand why someone would be so reckless just for an experiment. But Sam just smiled and took out a small glass vial and loaded it into the injector.
He closed it up and injected the medicine into the researcher's hand.
The shot was done in an instant and everyone could see the refreshed look on the researcher's face, but they didn't look at him for long as their attention was completely diverted to something else.
Looking at the injury on their hand to the surprise of Grivon and his subordinates, the wound started healing at a rapid pace.
It is almost the same speed as a competent healer healing on the spot. It is fast and precise and before they knew it, it is as good as new.
Sam waved the injector in front of Grivon and said.
"This is the new product that takes the market and ensures that there is a constant stream of income because the medicine that complements this is only available at your business. How is it? Enough to shake your brother's market?"
