21st Century Necromancer
Chapter 985 - 978 Potion

"Lord Chen Yu, do you have a solution for the side effects of the transformation for the Families?" Major General Claire looked at Chen Yu, who was still inspecting the two mutated soldiers with great interest, and inquired of him.

For the US military, abandoning research on the Families and the remnants of deities is out of the question, but they have no way to resolve the side effects of the transformation, so naturally, they have to seek help from those who can solve it.

Although Major General Claire and Chen Yu are both demigods, all ten fingers extended show differences in length, indicating a gap also exists between demigods.

The United States inherently lacks the accumulation of mystical power from the supernatural side, so although the demigods they cultivate have equal power, their knowledge is quite lacking.

Chen Yu, on the other hand, is currently acknowledged by all nations as a master of mysticism, and his knowledge is recognized by countries worldwide.

The reason this is known globally is partly because Chen Yu can summon demigods, and partly because it was discovered that before becoming a demigod, he had spread various legacies in Japan in exchange for resources.

This matter was not hard to investigate, as Chen Yu back then did not operate very covertly, naturally making it easy for nations to gather intelligence and find out about these activities, even learning that Mingyue Society is his supernatural organization.

The United States was openly jealous of Chen Yu's dispensing of these legacies back then.

Those were multiple complete legacies from apprentice to master level, although lacking the parts beyond the legendary, but for the United States, they lacked such foundational legacies; having high-end forces that benefitted from wartime bonuses and experts who sought refuge during conflicts and joined the US was enough.

However, those legacies weren't for those struggling among the lower-tier supernatural side; they clearly understood that Chen Yu had control methods when he spread those legacies before breaking through to the legendary level.

Just like when countries sell arms, ordinary firearms are modified export versions with reduced power, let alone aircraft, tanks, and missiles, which are equipped with various countermeasures; nobody would be foolish enough to sell weapons that could threaten themselves to enemies.

So even though Americans were covetous of Chen Yu's possessions, and did indeed obtain some legacies Chen Yu spread initially through certain means, they didn't attempt to use those legacies because they were clearly aware that there was a backdoor left by Chen Yu.

Using it for research or dabbling in its use was fine, but if Americans were to openly use those legacies, should Chen Yu be displeased and control them through the backdoor, wouldn't they be making a wedding dress for someone else?

But now?

On one hand, the United States truly couldn't manage this on their own, and on the other hand, the matters laid out might not have excessively dangerous backdoors.

Just like Americans using Windows; do countries not know Americans have a backdoor?

How could that be? Programmers leave themselves a backdoor when coding, so how could Americans not?

Unless you're a major nation like the Celestial Empire, capable of developing your own operating systems, constructing entire devices from basic components, and eliminating opportunities for opponents to exploit backdoors, the existence of backdoors cannot be avoided.

Also, for Americans, they merely wanted to know how Chen Yu resolved the hazards of the transformation for the Families, and whether such methods would leave backdoors; they could learn the methods and research independently rather than adopting Chen Yu's approach entirely.

Besides, even if Chen Yu left a backdoor, as long as the two parties' relations aren't antagonistic, the backdoor obviously wouldn't be activated.

And presently, the relationship between the US and Chen Yu indeed isn't adversarial.

These issues had already been discussed by Major General Claire with domestic strategists before Chen Yu arrived, resulting in conclusions and feasible solutions.

Therefore, Major General Claire directly sought help from Chen Yu.

In response to Major General Claire's request, Chen Yu thought for a moment and said, "It's simple, as long as you can assimilate these divinities. Demigods can do it, legendaries can barely digest some, but below legendary, whoever encounters divinity is doomed, unless you find a deity to protect you."

The hazards of the transformation for ordinary people might be hard to resolve, but for true deities, this is merely a trivial task.

Chen Yu had no need to conceal any of this because even if he told the Americans how, they could not accomplish it all.

The reason is simple: Americans have no deities.

The indigenous deities of the American continent were already massacred once by the Spaniards post-Columbus's discovery of the new land, and later the British ploughed through them again, leaving no living gods.

If Americans had deities at their disposal, they wouldn't have been so thirsty for supernatural powers all these years.

The answer provided by Chen Yu greatly dismayed Major General Claire; she clearly knew that the US couldn't summon a deity to resolve this matter.

Yet, unwilling to give up, she asked Chen Yu, "Is there no other solution?"

"There is." Chen Yu looked at Major General Claire, his expression nonchalant as he said, "My wife knows the method; the Dragon Clan is adept at transforming Families. All Dragon-descent or creatures with dragon bloodlines are actually their Families. However, for the giant dragons, some of these Families are to be controlled, others are merely unintended outcomes.

Moreover, the number of pureblood giant dragons is limited; they must use this method to increase the Dragon Clan's population. After all, if it's a Dragon-descent, the Dragon Clan has ways to purify the bloodline, transforming them into pureblood giant dragons."

"Really? Why have I..." Major General Claire, recalling her colleague who is a Dragon-descent, couldn't help feeling puzzled, "never heard of these?"

"Because this knowledge pertains to the bloodline legacy of pureblood giant dragons, which Dragon-descent cannot possibly know unless they can purify their bloodline and become true giant dragons." Chen Yu only knew about these from conversing with Xiao Lan. Jounouchi Hiromi was knowledgeable, but the knowledge of the Dragon Clan's legacy was vast.

Even pureblood giant dragons need to sleep for at least a hundred years to fully assimilate this knowledge, so while Jounouchi Hiromi understood, she certainly didn't have the time to fully explore the Dragon clan's legacy, often obtaining needed information by consulting Xiao Lan when necessary.

At this point, Chen Yu suddenly remembered some of the things he had researched previously, so he fetched a test tube filled with red liquid from his body and tossed it to Major General Claire, "If your US military needs a safe and stable transition mutation, this thing should meet your needs. It's a Dragon Blood Potion I created while researching dragon blood, similar to the transformation for Families, but what it transforms into is merely Dragon-descent."
