Nick created several machines that could produce the pills and published their effects and the process of their creation in the Archive.
Then, Nick consumed the pill.
He had already tried it several times to test it, but this time, he would actually advance.
After consuming the pill, Nick had to wait for a couple of minutes.
His body started to feel numb.
This was a necessary process since it numbed the pain one would feel.
Over the next hours, Nick's body started to vibrate and shake.
His heart and lungs were being denatured, and the waste was transported by the energy pathways to the intestines.
Then, the esophagus collapsed into the stomach.
The stomach shriveled up and collapsed into the intestines.
After that, the intestines started to roll into a ball as they weakened.
Any remaining nutrients would be harvested by the remaining intestines, leaving only black sludge behind.
Some hours later, Nick felt a pressure in his abdomen.
