59: Regular harvesting of the furnace
Chapter 59: Regular Harvesting of the Cauldron
Thinking about it, it made sense. He possessed the perfect level Berserker talents, 'Debuff Resistance' and 'Status Correction'.
The former could greatly reduce various negative effects, including but not limited to weakness, dizziness, silence, blindness, poisoning, charm...
While the latter could significantly shorten the duration of various negative effects, maximizing Dick's tenacity and allowing him to quickly return to normal.
With the two talents combined, Dick was almost impossible to control. Yet, despite this, the charm wine still made his desire burn fiercely.
After letting out a light breath, Dick forcefully suppressed the desire in his heart.
The first harvest was crucial, as it would affect every future harvest.
Although he could take down Beyonce now, and she wouldn't resist, doing so wouldn't yield a good cauldron effect, at least not the best.
A cauldron physique like Water God Sword Body was extremely rare, something you couldn't find even if you sought it. If Dick was going to do it, he had to do it perfectly.
"Senior Sister," Dick looked at Beyonce and said with firm eyes, "I told you, I would never force you to do anything, not even drink the charm wine..."
Hearing this, Beyonce was very moved, but still whispered, "It's... it's okay, Dick, I've... made preparations."
Made preparations?
How extensive was Dick's experience? He could tell at a glance that Beyonce hadn't made preparations; she was forcing herself. Although it was subtle, it still didn't escape Dick's eyes.
If they did it now, the cauldron's enhancement effect would likely only be 90% at most, and Dick wanted a perfect 100%!
"Senior Sister coming to find me tonight must be Father-in-law's order. That old man is a bit too hasty..."
Beyonce wasn't an proactive person at all. She had never been in love and was essentially a naive young girl. How could she possibly come knocking on his door to give herself away?
Although Beyonce liked him, it was far from the point of being 'impatient'. After all, they had only known each other for a short time.
As expected, Beyonce sighed upon hearing this and whispered, "Yes, Father... he asked me to invite you to the manor..."
Thinking of the father-daughter conversation last night, Beyonce felt a bit helpless.
"My good daughter, you should be more proactive. Don't always wait for him to come to you. If you wait any longer, it might cool down!"
"Father, what are you talking about? Dick truly likes me. How could he easily give up..."
"You're really too careless. A man's heart is the easiest to change. You know yourself, there are plenty of beauties in the Academy. How can you guarantee that young man won't change his mind?"
"Di, Dick said he liked my ears. Other human girls don't have them..."
"Foolish! Can you believe such sweet talk? He can like your ears today, and like other girls' beautiful legs tomorrow!"
"......Then, what should I do..."
"Invite him to the manor tomorrow. As your father, I'll personally check him out. If everything is fine, you'll just directly... at night..."
"Fa, Father?! This is too fast. A girl's purity should be kept for the wedding night. Mother always taught me this."
"Now is a critical juncture for our clan's revitalization. Everything must be handled flexibly. Not only should you give him your purity, but it's best if you also get pregnant and tie him firmly to you..."
To be honest, Beyonce could understand her father. Li Huo Flow Sword Technique was the long-held wish of generations of Li Huo Rabbit Clan members.
As the future clan leader, Beyonce herself wasn't afraid of sacrifice. As long as it could allow the clan to return to orthodoxy, anything could be exchanged!
It was just that Beyonce found she had already fallen for Dick; this was her first love.
Beyonce didn't want any transactions mixed between them. It would be best if it could be like a normal relationship, happening naturally when their feelings were strong...
If they did it tonight, it would be like forcing things, not like love, but more like a transaction. Beyonce didn't like it this way.
But a father's command couldn't be disobeyed. Beyonce knew she shouldn't be willful. Compared to the clan's rise, her little romantic thoughts were insignificant.
"Dick," Beyonce lay down on the bed and said deliberately with a hint of charm, "Don't mind me. Tonight, you can do as you please..."
Before Beyonce could finish speaking, Dick gently shook his head. Then, he picked up the charm wine from the table and drank the entire bottle directly from the mouth!
Gulp, gulp, gulp...
Under Beyonce's shocked gaze, Dick drank the charm wine in one gulp – it was the entire bottle!
As the young clan leader of the Li Huo Rabbit Clan, Beyonce was very aware of the charm wine's power. One cup... could turn a polite noble into a rogue.
And now, Dick had downed an entire bottle. Then... wouldn't he turn into a beast?
Thinking of this, Beyonce closed her eyes, gripping the bedsheet with both hands, quietly waiting with some fear.
Waiting for a war of blood and tears.
However, Dick just quietly lay beside Beyonce and gently helped her cover herself with the blanket.
"Di... Dick?"
"Let's just do this tonight. We'll just sleep for one night and pretend to have done it, so you have an explanation for Father-in-law."
"But, but..."
"I said!"
Dick's face was red, seemingly trying his best to restrain himself. "My love for you is absolutely not a transaction. Even as strong as the charm wine is, it cannot make me violate you."
"I will only treat the woman I like gently!"
The last sentence completely stunned Beyonce, who had zero experience. Afterward, an uncontrollable surge of love filled her mind, even turning her eyes into the shape of hearts.
"Dick, you must be a gift from heaven to me..."
At this moment, Dick knew Beyonce was completely willing.
It had absolutely nothing to do with the clan's rise, disobeying a father's command, or the clan's long-held wish... it was the purest love.
And tonight, Dick would be able to obtain the most perfect cauldron effect.
...
...
...
The next morning, Dick slowly woke up from his sleep. Beyonce was still holding his arm, sleeping sweetly.
With difficulty, he pulled his hand out from the fullness, Dick sat up and simply felt the changes in his body. Before long, he smiled with satisfaction.
Strength, speed, defense, reaction, self-healing ability... all aspects had improved. This was the effect of Water God Sword Body as a cauldron, capable of comprehensively enhancing attributes.
Different types of cauldron physiques provided different enhancement effects. Dick really liked Beyonce's 'Water God Sword Body'.
Although it was small, with each attribute increasing by less than one-thousandth, the advantage lay in the frequency.
Cauldron enhancement wasn't a one-time deal, but a lifelong benefit.
Those with a cauldron physique would regularly generate a certain amount of enhancement factors within their bodies, but they couldn't use them themselves; they could only be regularly harvested by outsiders.
It's worth mentioning that the stronger Beyonce became, the stronger the attribute enhancement effect she provided as a cauldron would be.
At the same time, as Beyonce's 'Water God Sword Body' talent improved, her cauldron physique would also undergo a qualitative change!
"Mmm... Dick, you're awake."
Beyonce slowly sat up, her thick black hair spreading down her back like a waterfall, her long rabbit ears hanging down on both sides.
Unlike her previous heroic and spirited demeanor, she now had an added submissive charm.
"From now on... I'll come to the manor to stay one night every week."
Although the enhancement factors within the cauldron physique would continuously generate, there was a storage limit. Not harvesting regularly would only lead to waste.
Dick made a simple estimation. Given Beyonce's current situation, harvesting once a week was approximately the most suitable.
Hearing this, Beyonce's pretty face flushed. She subconsciously recalled the scenes from last night and quickly nodded shyly.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Dick frowned. Since it was Beyonce's first harvest, there were still some enhancement factors remaining.
Adhering to the principle of not wasting, Dick decided to carry out a 'clearance operation'.
"Uwah, Di, Dick?"
"I forgot to tell you, I actually have a habit of morning exercises."
Afterward, the two missed breakfast, and by the time they left the room, it was already lunchtime.
