Rex shuddered after going through the side effects of this mystic treasure.

On noticing him shudder, Melkor mistook it as a shudder of excitement as he took this as an opportunity to lick the boots of his new boss. "Gang leader, the Minotaur Pool is the most miraculous mystic treasure that you'll ever see".

"Back then, I braved the dangers of that cursed dungeon alongside my 4 friends. I was the only one who survived and came back with the tonic".

"With the pool, the Berserk Gang will grow to even greater heights".

Rex forced a smile as he looked at the previous gang leader of the Minotaurs Gang. "How many times have you drank the water of the pool?"

"Huh…?"

"I mean how many times you've drank the water of the pool".

"Ahh…, oh, I really don't remember, haha". Melkor scratched his head while thinking. "I'm not sure, but I think at least 20 or 30 times".

"…"

The look that Rex gave this warrior now turned to that of pity, he patted him on the shoulders. "Stay strong brother, we'll always be here for you".

"Ahh…, yes, thank you Gang leader".

The side effects of this mystic treasure were definitely not something that any mystic warrior should be made to experience.

Most mystic warriors did not fear death since that was what they trained to embrace their whole life, what most of them feared instead was turning into an idiot. The concept of living as a senseless idiot alone was terrifying.

That alone made Rex degrade the value of this mystic treasure.

Despite the terrifying side effects of the Minotaur Pool though, it did not stop Rex from appreciating its incredible mystic effects that were extremely helpful.

Due to those mystic effects, a small-time gang like the Minotaurs Gang was able to secretly amass power of such a level to even put up a fight against the Berserk Gang. That in itself showed the usefulness of this mystic treasure.

Rex turned to face Aragorn. "It's best as a last gasp measure in battles".

"Yes". Aragorn nodded. "Due to it's side effect when used, I advise for it to be used by our warriors only when their death is certain".

"At least then, they'll have a chance to fight death". 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com

Ben was amazed. "This can easily become a trump card of the Berserk Army in the future. Rex, you really hit the jackpot this time".

Without hesitation, the leaders of the Berserk Gang started getting bottles of the pool water. As they did, Rex coughed before giving a friendly advice.

"You are only allowed to take 15 bottles each, I'll explain my reason later".

After taking the bottles, as they prepared to return to the Berserk Mansion, Rex already started thinking of the restrictions that he would put to the use of this mystic treasure to protect all his warriors from turning into idiots.

Once they were in the Monster Truck, Rex finally told them his discovery.

"It turns warriors into idiots?" All the warriors shuddered in fear as the look of excitement on their face turned into that of horror, the bottles at their hands now felt heavy like it was carrying the greatest poison of all time.

While they shuddered, they soon came to their senses and directed pitiful looks at Melkor. This warrior was confused as he reminisced his life. "An idiot?" He mumbled incoherently.

With comforting words from the others though, Melkor was able to recover. Now, he felt super grateful for being able to meet Rex on time.

He shuddered at the thought of becoming an idiot if he never met Rex.

By the time that they returned to the Berserk Mansion, they returned to meet a convergence of an army not less than 50,000 gathered outside the mansion.

The warriors were so many that if they were in the sky instead of the ground, it seemed like they would blot the sky with their numbers alone.

This was the combined army after their incredible victory.

Rex had no intentions to waste time, after the incredible victory, the next step was uniting all the scattered gangs into a unified Berserk Gang.

He took the stage and addressed the tens of thousands of mystic warriors that were standing before him. "Today, we made history".

"Today, we united to achieve a greater cause that individually we cannot achieve".

"Today, we united to make the Blood Market territory stronger".

"Today, we became legends".

The tens of thousands of warriors cheered enthusiastically as he addressed them. Rex let them finish before he continued. "From today, you all are no longer different, we are now part of the Berserk Gang".

"We are the Berserk Gang itself".

"To celebrate our victory and achievement, I will be holding a feast today. We shall drink and merry and make today one of the most memorable days across our lives filled with battles and wars".

"For the Berserk Gang!"

"FOR THE BERSERK GANG!"

The warriors cheered enthusiastically as celebrations began.

With Elanor staying behind and already arranging everything, the feast kickstarted without a ruckus as food and drinks were served in great numbers to the tens of thousands of mystic warriors that were in attendance.

Today was a day to merry, tomorrow was for official duties since Rex still had administrative duties and decisions to decide on how to occupy all this territory that he just gained for the Berserk Gang.

From that evening, they celebrated through the night to the next day.

The next morning, after enjoying himself throughout the night, Rex finally got set to sleep but this was when the news came like a bombshell.

Rex turned to face Aragorn, shocked. "What?"
