Lukas sat down, calming his mind on the sand right beside the training dummy. He had a dozen mana pill bottles with him.
This place also acted as a training spot, providing pure mana at a slower rate. Of course, he couldn't depend on that.
Lukas grabbed a small blue bottle containing white mana pills. The bottle was made of thick glass to withstand impacts, with a cork stopper and wire handle for easy carrying.
He removed the cork and shook one pill into his palm. It was a small rounded ball, milky white in color. Mana pills captured and compressed ambient mana from the environment into a convenient portable form.
Crushing the pill in his hand would cause it to slowly dissolve, absorbing into his skin and circulating the concentrated mana through his pathways. However, for a breakthrough, he needed a larger dose.
