《Records of Zinc》Experiment #1 Part 3 - Tough Runt and Continued Success
Advertisement
As more eggs began to hatch, Zinc continued to disable the hatchlings. He would continue to kill the disabled Chaurus and dismantle them for their body parts and their poisonous sacs. Each time, Zinc will take the poisonous sac and pour the poison fluids down the runt-like Chaurus's throat. And each time, the Chaurus survived. Was this the one? Zinc prayed for success as he forced the runt to drink another gulp of poison.
With each passing poisonous sac, the runt became deadlier and deadlier. Soon, it seemed that any additional dosage of the poison did not affect the little guy at all. It was time for Zinc to try a different tactic. Zinc reached towards Hatchling #16 and Hatchling #17 and skillfully removed their poisonous sacs. After storing the rest of the bodies into rotect jars, Zinc drained the poisonous sacs into a rotect jar and mixed them together. Then, he poured the combined fluids down the small Chaurus's throat.
Hoping that double the fluids equal double the intensity, Zinc observed any physical changes to the small Chaurus. Although there weren't any struggling, the Chaurus's body turned dark green before changing to purple, and then back to its original color. Other than that, the Chaurus was fine. Zinc smiled and decided to step it up a notch. He approached to another couple of eggs that were in the process of hatching and smashed the egg shells prematurely. Then, he disabled the hatchlings and dismantled all five of them.
After removing their poisonous sacs and mixing them together in the rotect jar, Zinc poured the contents down the Chaurus's throat. Initially, it began to change colors like the previous time. Seeing this, Zinc felt satisfied with cultivating such a strong monster. Once the Chaurus turned back to normal, Zinc proceeded to the next batch. However, just as he cracked open a Chaurus egg, he heard a thud. It couldn't be! Zinc turned around and saw the runt collapsed on the floor. Though the color was the same, it had overdosed and thus died. Nooo!

What happens when a university professor somehow ends up in another world, where magic bends the laws of nature? Alan is, albeit unwillingly, about to find out.

In his new reality, he will meet both friends and foe, he will seek knowledge, he will build power, and perhaps he will even find love again? Follow Alan through his adventures, and find out for yourselves how he deals with the challenges thrown at him by a new world, while struggling with the issues brought with him from his old one. * Author’s note: A fair warning. This is the first time I’ve published anything, and basically the first time I’ve written anything more than mandatory school-stuff. The story will probably have inconsistencies, grammatical errors (not my native tongue, though that excuse is getting old), and potentially confusing (missing?) plot. I will naturally do my best to write something worth reading, but my main goal in writing this story is to have fun and explore the limits of my own creativity. My hope in publishing it here, is that I’ll reach someone who enjoy the story, and can push me forward towards writing more, as it is difficult at times to find the motivation to write just for myself. Additionally, I can’t really promise to have regular updates, as I have a full-time job that often likes to take the ‘full-time’ part literally, and a sporadic social life that occasionally surprises me (happy surprises mostly, so I shouldn’t complain). I’ll aim for once a week to start with, and take it from there. Happy reading! Cover photo by Jeff Hire (/photographer/gun4hire-58415), from https://freeimages.com/.
