Chapter 489: 489



Kant referred to them as the Investigation Corps.

It was actually adopted and recognized by Goethe’s officials, and this name was used in the administrative documents and orders sent to the provincial and municipal governments along the way.

This was the Investigation Corps ‘logistics supply and central command base. It was used to coordinate supplies, mobilize personnel, and give orders. Now, it had a new function.

That was to conduct magical research and mystical analysis.

In a specially opened isolated area, it was isolated from the outside world by holy runes and magic barriers. The Sun Saint Artifact was used as a seal and suppression. The defense here was comparable to the top biochemical laboratories on Earth. The mysterious laboratory was made of a house made of Heavenly Alloy. It was heavily guarded and had the highest level of security.

In the laboratory, everyone was wearing thick protective prayer clothes that completely isolated any external exchange. They used light runes to defend against corrosion and curses. They also had a can of Life Vine Seeds that were activated by Druid’s hyperactive magic skills, which were used with Holy Pyroxene to quickly photosynthesize and convert oxygen.

Even the crystal chip of the goggles was made of natural seven-color crystals. It had the effect of blocking spiritual energy, preventing strange and unpredictable spiritual attacks from invading the brain through the eyes, the window to the soul.

His entire body was well-protected.

Kant glanced at the glove through the chip. The glove was thicker than the rest of his clothes. The back of his hand and palm were tattooed with blood-colored words. He had just learned these words recently.

” Touch carefully.”

“Don’t be careless.”

It was just like how the complete safety regulations of all walks of life in modern society were actually born from countless tragic stories and heavy losses, which were summed up by the later generations as bloody lessons and rules…This fully armed and meticulous defense was built on the foundation of countless heavy and terrifying disasters. The other world was even more unsafe than Earth.

Then, he heard a deep voice.” Your Highness, Your Highness Kant. Everyone, please take a look.”

The person in charge of this research was the dean of a famous school in Lucerne. He had met Kant several times before and was an expert in the field of mysterious exploration.

Goethe and Tina had assigned all the top figures they could mobilize to the Investigation Corps for this investigation. They did not care if they could be of any use. This action had a very deep intention. Apart from paying attention to this operation, they had probably also considered letting these top figures of Goethe work with Kant to improve their understanding.

Now, it actually came in handy.

The spellcaster touched the coat of arms on his chest. The Stone of Rasheed in the center of the coat of arms was filled with magic power and activated Soul Protection to protect the wearer’s soul.

Then, the mage’s eyes lit up with arcane brilliance, and his hands touched the two brass halves of the control panel in front of him. In the next moment, two alchemical mechanical arms spread out on the test table sealed by strengthened crystals. The joints and bones were no different from humans. They waved in the air a few times, turned left and right, and made a few complicated gestures.

” Spiritual link successful.” On the other side, the apprentice stared nervously at a crystal.” The color of the Transfer Soul Stone is normal. There are no signs of foreign spiritual power corrosion.”

Kant could roughly tell that cautious mages avoided direct contact with samples. Using psychic powers was not a good choice either. This meant that direct contact with mental power would still risk the soul being corrupted and infected. Therefore, he used his mental power to control the alchemical mechanical arm for experiments.

However, he was still afraid that the unknown mysterious power would infect the mechanical arm physically and then through the spiritual connection between the mage and the mechanical arm. Therefore, he set up a relay and established a spiritual connection between the mage, the transfer soul stone, and the mechanical arm.

The Soulstone had a special characteristic. It would change color when it encountered spiritual power. If more than one spiritual power passed through the Soulstone at the same time, it would show a different color from the previous one. This was a terrible warning, meaning that an unfamiliar spiritual power was being transmitted to the caster through the sample.

The experimenter could immediately use the instructions in the emergency treatment manual to protect himself and save himself.

It was really painstaking.

How many mages had been tormented to death to come up with so many complete methods…

As he thought about it, the mechanical arm had already reached out to the experimental sample.

They were the corpses of a few monsters that had crawled out of the underground. Before sealing the underground cave, Stella had left a few of them alive at her urgent request, and the biochemical troops that had arrived later had quickly taken them in.

” The samples we obtained are divided into two types. The first is the remains of the mutated bird that attacked the two scouting mages. The second is the corpse of the nameless monster that rushed out of the underground cave and clashed with His Highness Kant. According to the eyewitness testimony of the two mages and the time-reversal image of His Highness Kant, these two completely different creatures have many similarities.”

The mechanical arm extended an invisible wind blade from its index finger and began to cut the remains.” Firstly, they are aggressive and fearless. They don’t avoid danger and have lost their survival instincts.”

“Secondly…”

The wind blade sliced open the flesh, revealing the strange muscles, blood vessels, and bone structure inside. Even though Kant’s biological knowledge was limited to high school and he had given most of it to his teacher, he could still tell at a glance that the creature’s body structure was extremely illogical and strange.

” The muscles are completely torn apart, the bones are twisted, and the blood vessels are ruptured. This is not a wound after being attacked, but the state it was in when it was alive. If a creature’s body structure shows such a state, I can completely conclude that it is a lump of rotten meat that cannot move. In the next second, it will squeeze its heart and die. However, this creature is not dead. Instead, it uses its sharp claws to climb the cave walls and advance crazily at a speed of 20 to 30 meters per second, leaping and biting. This was completely illogical.”

The Spell Caster stared at the broken lines on his muscles and said calmly,” And my teacher taught me that things that don’t conform to common sense are the mysteries that Wizards pursue.”

” And mystery is this.”

The mechanical claw grabbed a bloody piece of meat from the cut body.

Green sac fluid, dripping blood, and liquid tissue kept sliding down. Purple star fragments flickered in them, shining with a strange light bit by bit.

” We found the same mysterious energy in the remains of the bird. It’s purple in color and has an extremely high energy density. It’s determined to be a foreign corrosive energy. It’s a biological infection type and destructive corrosion. It can completely change the body functions and life structure of the infected. It’s extremely dangerous, and…”

The spellcaster channeled his spiritual power, and the base of the experiment table opened. Another corpse rose up. It was the remains of a relatively complete bird.” It was also corroded by a foreign energy. The infection of this bird is far less than that of the nameless monster. It should have been recently infected, so it showed internal parasitic mutation.”

” In terms of the degree of infection, the nameless monster underground is obviously more perfect. It can be said that its entire body has been completely infected. Instead, it has reached a new balance and state, becoming a ferocious predator…”

“This means that they have been affected and infected for a long time. It means that this energy has existed for a relatively long time and did not fall from the sky a few days ago.”

Oh, you scared me.

He thought it was the explosion on the Tiber River that sent Tiberia to the world.

Kant and Stella looked at each other.

He was sure.

This time, the blame on the dragon clan was even heavier.

F * ck, that’s not right. Maybe they really did it.

Fuck.

The mage continued to explain,” We’ve tried every means possible to extract this substance and have conducted various elemental and mystical tests. According to the Arcane Magic Council’s revised Foreign Invasion Illustrated Guide in February this year, the test results do not match any of the categories. Your Highnesses, we have reason to believe that this is a new foreign energy that has never appeared in the history of this planet…”

Stella’s face fell. She turned her head slightly, not looking at Kant’s face.

The spellcasters were completely oblivious to this. Scholars also had the desire to express their feelings and express their feelings. However, these people’s research fields were too profound, and ordinary people could not understand them at all. They could only talk to their peers.

And to this Spell Caster, who could be a better listener than His Highness Kant, who was a Forbidden Spell Mage and a Great Alchemist, and had recently been discovered to be quite accomplished in the field of space and souls?

Although he was explaining, it was no different from an academic report.

” I have to admit that although this new corrosive energy is extremely dangerous, it has incredible properties. As for the prototype or main body of this mutated nameless monster, we are prepared to apply to the Danfeng Lucerne side to mobilize Druids with high attainments in the field of zoology to study it. However, we can now confirm that the new foreign energy has turned this creature into a terrifying killing machine.”

” This energy makes the infected nameless monsters bloodthirsty and aggressive. It also greatly increases their offensive ability. The original bodily functions of these creatures have been completely destroyed, but the destroyed body perfectly combines with this energy, giving them new strength, faster speed, unbelievable mobility, sturdy armor, sharp claws and teeth…”

” You’re right.” The mage looked up at Kant.” You should have noticed that.”

A phoenix flame flashed in Kant’s eyes. He had also discovered something with the Elemental Perception of the Fire Stealer.

“Its claws, teeth, and even its shell have been strengthened.”

In the vision of the Fire Stealer, the lower half of the Predator, which had been shot to pieces and was still lying on the experiment table, was still ferocious. The teeth in its open mouth, the claws of its powerful forelimbs, and the layers of shell on its back were all arranged and effective in a complicated way.

This meant…He could learn and copy it.

“That’s right.”

The spellcaster said,” And the strengthening effect is amazing. Even without any processing, the sharpness and armor-piercing performance of these claws are comparable to the best armaments. The shell can even resist magic attacks. We haven’t carried out the next step of research, but the alchemists have already speculated…”

The mage took a deep breath and said,” Perhaps, this energy can automatically enchant the infected parts of the body, but the process is not very good.”

Kant thought for a moment.” In other words, we can build an absolutely safe farm and continuously throw animals into it, allowing the energy to infect and erode it. Then, we can harvest the strengthened body parts of these animals at regular intervals to create weapons, armor, or even machinery?”

“I didn’t expect this to happen!” The spellcaster was stunned for a moment before he exclaimed in surprise.

He then came back to his senses and shook his head.” No, there is no absolutely safe place. Even if there is, it will relax with the passage of time and lead to a huge safety accident.”

“Furthermore, Sir, the ability to infect creatures and strengthen their body parts… It’s actually nothing.”

The mage’s tone became solemn and serious as he slowly exhaled.

” And that’s why there are only four of us here. My student participated in my previous experiment. He’s an insider, and my idea is that, at least for now, there can’t be more than four insiders.”

“Please take a look.”

The mage’s eyes lit up with arcane flames. In the sealed experiment table, elements were slowly gathering, and a small Light Spell was gradually taking shape. This illumination spell was one of the compulsory skills of mages, and it was also the most popular exploration skill. Its effect was to create a small light source that floated around the body and illuminated everything.

The light was formed in the experiment table, right next to the tissue that was filled with mysterious energy.

In the next moment, Kant and Stella both saw the mass of tissue float out of the purple mist and automatically merge into the spell model of the Brilliant Light spell.

Then, the ball of light instantly blazed, and the intensity of the light instantly increased by several times.

” What did you do?” Stella’s face changed.

“As you can see, I only used a normal Brilliant Light spell.” The mage’s calm tone revealed a hint of uneasiness.” And this foreign energy has automatically enhanced the effect of this spell.”

“In other words,”

He turned to look at Stella and Kant.” This mysterious energy that has never appeared in the annals of history is a natural magic amplifier for spellcasters.”

” For a magic circle, it’s a long-lasting magic pool.”

” For a Magic Device, it’s an overload button with no side effects…”

“You know what I want to say,” the mage said softly.

However, it was also a terrifying poison that corroded and mutated living beings.

Stella’s eyes were dazed for a moment.

Kant’s gaze suddenly turned sharp.” Have you used it before?”

Cao Cao is the source stone.

The man met Kant’s gaze with an open expression.” No, Your Highness. Perhaps my power is nothing compared to yours, but I still maintain the noble and pure soul of a Spell Caster. Restraint, caution, carefulness, calmness. I remember the lessons of my ancestors and the creed of a Wizard.”

” I’ve always remembered the words engraved in the Explorer’s Hall of the Arcane Magic Council.”

” The first sentence: Mystery and magic are not free.”

” The second sentence-On the path of Extraordinary to explore the nature of the world, what mages pay is often not hard work, but…” The Spell Caster said slowly,” The price.”

I believe you didn’t, sir, because I still remember a story you told me in the first arcana class.” Stella came back to her senses and gently pulled Kant.

” Yes, Your Highness.” The other party laughed.” If one day you pick up a magic staff that can give you endless magic power, what will you do?”

” It’s not a big deal,” Stella said with a smile.” Report it to the Arcane Magic Council immediately and take it in.”

Because mystery and magic were not free.

The so-called divine artifacts, the so-called voices of ancient experts, and the so-called enlightenment of fate that were born from a different plane, had a long history, and appeared in the present world through various methods… The mages who had fallen into temptation and traps were stripped of their bodies, their souls extracted, exiled, tortured, driven mad, broken down, and corrupted. Countless lessons became the lessons of those who came after them. The creed of mages was only one word.

Be careful.

” I’ve already made a preliminary analysis and judgment on this unknown energy, and I’ve reached a major conclusion. My mission as a spellcaster and researcher has been completed. Next is the political stage. My apprentice and I will confine ourselves until the two of you, or even the archdukes, make a decision.”

” Be careful.” The man bowed deeply.” Goethe is standing at the crossroads of history.”

“Thank you for your contribution to this country.” Stella returned the gesture.” Mr. Ferndt, my teacher, please allow me to ask for your guidance and advice again. Do you have any suggestions?”

“The brand-new foreign energy should have been reported to the Arcane Magic Council immediately, and the executives of the Life Safety Department should have handled it urgently…”

The mage’s voice was also filled with unease.” But the Arcane Magic Council is not a powerful department that is completely detached from the various countries. It is still affected by the interests and stances of the various countries. This kind of power has never been seen or heard of before, and its significance is far-reaching. It can even change the balance of national strength and carry out a new round of power reshuffling. I don’t know if the Arcane Magic Council can accept and ban it as usual, or…”

Or would it be divided, researched, and used for military expansion by the various countries?

Of course, Stella understood that.

“No wonder those dragons entered the cave,” she whispered.

This kind of thing was also extremely tempting to the Dragon Clan…Especially those dragons who wanted to make the dragon race great again all day long…

There were usually only two ways to deal with such matters.

First, he would make a fortune quietly.

Second, report to the international organization for shelter.

However, it was still unknown whether the latter could maintain a neutral and detached attitude in the face of this new energy form with great potential and far-reaching significance. If he could not, the news would be leaked, which would not be good news for Goethe. Everyone understood the principle that an innocent man would be punished for his wealth.

As for the former…

Who could guarantee that this was not a gift from the devil?

The Second Princess froze for a moment before she said softly,”I need to think about it. We need to think about it…”

“Yes.”

The two of them changed out of their protective gear and went through twelve disinfection and purification processes before leaving. The experiment on the sample had stopped, and the researcher had indeed sealed himself inside. Stella breathed in the air from the outside world. There was no one around. She was silent for a moment before turning to look at Kant.

” You’re right. It’s a brand new type of energy.” She asked,” What do you think?”

” Thank you.” Kant thought for a moment. He cupped his hands and bowed.” Thank you.”

“..”Stella was stunned at first, then she understood.

Previously, Kant had mentioned that it might be a brand-new energy, one that the Arcane Magic Council had never recorded. However, he had confidently denied that. Earlier, he had said that the probability of it being a brand-new, foreign energy was as small as the probability of Kant getting his hands on the Goddess in a day.

And then this guy said that he’s counting on you?

What did he mean?

Are you dissatisfied with my Tina?

Even the Phoenix King can’t satisfy you?

He really thought that he was a Casanova!

She raised her eyebrows and reprimanded,”What time is it? Are you still daydreaming?” You still accept my good words? Do you really think that the goddess will fall in love with you? Are you kidding me? If the goddess can fall in love with you, I’ll…”

The next moment, a fiery red shadow flashed in front of him. Ah Xing leaped over in a few steps, jumped up, and hugged Kant. He hung on to him.” Kant, Kant, what took you so long?!”

Kant was hit by two headlights, making him feel very uncomfortable.

“And what?” he asked Stella.

P.S. 1: Ah, to be honest, the settings of the Source Stone are similar to Tiberia…
