He Became A Monstrous Genius After Obtaining A Time Dilation Artifact-Chapter 553. Miasma poison.

"So this is the case," Kailen mused inwardly.

The moment he entered the hall, he scanned the crown prince with elemental mirroring. His universe energy pathways were turning dark. But from Kailen’s analyses, he would not be dying anytime soon.

The poison the crown prince had been poisoned with was indeed not meant to just kill him.

It was actually meant to infect the ones around him.

It was called miasma poison. Anytime the crown prince exhaled, he would breathe the poison out into the environs.

Anyone that had been near to him since the time he was poisoned had been poisoned, as long as the first prince had breathed into the atmosphere they were in.

Kailen scanned everyone else in the room. Their universe energy pathways were being slowly corroded.

It was so subtle that they would not even realize how they died. By the time they’d realize it, they’d be dead, and not even suspect anyone.

However, cooking up this scheme was really dangerous. This was not the work of a poison awakener. It was the work of a very skilled and dangerous rank 4 Black Flask Alchemist. And this rank 4 Black Flask alchemist was working for someone very dangerous.

"Your majesties. Sorry for the lack of formalities. However, the situation is more dire than you can imagine. Quickly, get me the trihexon Herb, Asteroid tear, a glittering sun herb, root meloria..."

Kailen quickly listed a couple of ingredients as he approached the crown prince. At this point, he had also been infected. But with the antidote, he would be fine, alongside everyone in the room.

Kailen quickly asked the crown prince.

"Who was the last person you encountered before this condition you are in started manifesting?"

Everyone observed Kailen curiously. No one questioned him. They knew he would explain the situation to them when he came to some conclusions.

The crown prince weakly said, "It was two weeks after the coronation ceremony. I woke up one evening, only to smell this medicinal scent in this hall. There was no sign of anyone in the room when it happened. Roughly a week after that, the symptoms begun."

Kailen nodded. As expected. Someone who could slip out of the royal palace without detection was dangerous. If they had wanted to kill the crown prince, they’d have done it there and then.

The crown prince was not the primary focus, although he was most likely targeted too. The main focus was most likely the emperor and the empress.

"Emperor, Empress, everyone, the poison the first prince has been infected with is called the miasma poison. Anytime he exhales, the poison will spread like a transparent miasma into the atmosphere. Anyone in the nearest environs around him will inhale it when they breathe, and the poison will infect them. The primary focus is not the crown prince, but to slowly kill the emperor and the empress. It’s like planting a bomb, disappearing, and waiting for the bomb to detonate. Whoever did this is not ordinary."

Kailen’s words caused the emperor, the empress, the third princess, the first prince, and the attendants to frown.

"So that’s the case," the emperor revealed a very concerned expression. "This explains why no one in the imperial sector can be considered a culprit. Turns out there’s a party beyond the empire at work here. Black Flask, is there a cure?"

Everyone stared at Kailen. At this point, they were not only concerned about the crown prince, but themselves too.

"Yes, I can make an antidote," Kailen spoke with natural confidence. The comprehensive knowledge of alchemy level 4 was no joke.

An expression of relief, hope, and satisfaction appeared on several faces.

Kailen added further.

"The reason why previous Black Flask Alchemists who visited were not able to do anything about the situation is because they could not discover the poison. It’s actually a very rare one. Even if they had, the purity level of the antidote should be very high because of the nature of the poison."

Very soon, the ingredients Kailen requested were brought to him.

Quickly, he got to work.

The infinite alchemy flame appeared before him. He made the antidote elixir right in front of everyone, without a cauldron.

It was one thing watching videos of his skill, but seeing it in person was something else entirely. This young man was really an enigma.

Was he really sure he was in his 20’s? How could his skill be better than those veteran alchemists?

As expected of a Black Flask Alchemist that had dominated the academy established by the Universe Alliance.

Kailen finally finished the antidotes. Several flasks appeared before him, and he poured the elixirs inside them.

He drank some of it first. Quickly, he spat some sort of blue liquid out.

The antidote worked very quickly because of his high purity level. Kailen was fine.

Quickly, everyone else in the room, including the crown prince, took some. In a moment, they also spat the same blue liquid out of their system.

Not only that, they realised their universe energy reserves were more refined and denser than before. Also, the rate at which the antidote worked was very fast. This was what it meant to consume an alchemical product of a purity level of 99.99 percent. Indeed, all kinds of alchemical products were seemingly subpar compared. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

The crown prince recovered his demeanor. His universe energy pathways were extremely stable and denser than before. He was no longer sick and pale.

At this moment, he felt very emotional.

Everyone in the hall felt that way.

At this moment, the emperor bent his waist backwards. "Thank you, Black Flask."

Everyone else repeated the gesture of the Emperor.

Kailen simply nodded with a warm smile. He was on a mission. It was simply that. He was not some saint.

Now that the crown prince was fine, he had to focus on finding the culprit.

The whole room turned serious again. How would Darkhaven handle this?
