Chapter 43: High-Concentration Energy Zone
The sword imbued with Martial Energy tore through the air, creating a piercing sonic boom!
In the blink of an eye, Su Nan found himself surrounded, trapped in a deadly situation.
Yet, there wasn’t a hint of panic on his face. His right hand moved like lightning, grabbing the sword that struck from the right.
A dull thud echoed as the blade seemed to cut through tough leather. The Martial Energy glow clashed fiercely with the yellow aura, but it couldn’t break through.
On the other side, the long sword attacking from the left was blocked by an invisible shield, unable to advance.
The two Great Knights’ fierce attacks, prepared for so long, were easily neutralized.
“Are the remaining two cultists here? Perfect, let’s settle this together.”
Su Nan stood up, his gaze cold as he swept over the two figures.The two cultists, still in shock, were enraged by their opponent’s nonchalant attitude. They roared and charged forward again.
Su Nan didn’t hesitate, hurling two rune stones. Blazing flames and dazzling lightning erupted, surging forward like dragons, instantly engulfing the two.
After a deafening roar, two more corpses lay on the ground.
“Meow, Su Nan is so awesome!” Amy shouted, “666.”
Although the little creature was innocent, it seemed accustomed to bloody death scenes, likely due to its previous owner’s bloody hands.
After eliminating the two cultists, the remaining Starfire Sect members seemed afraid and no longer dared to intervene.
Su Nan, enhancing his speed with wind element particles, reached the main building deep within the manor in just over ten breaths.
“The thing is on the second floor!” Amy’s chubby paws pointed to the middle room on the second floor.
Su Nan leaped directly from the ground, smashing through the window and entering the room. Following Amy’s instructions, he then broke through a wall and found a secret chamber. Ṝ
Inside, the only things present were a stone platform and three chests.
The item on the stone platform was the Divine Blood Crystal he was searching for.
Twenty-four in total!
Su Nan took them all without hesitation.
Adding them to his previous stash, he now had twenty-six Divine Blood Crystals.
As Su Nan opened the other three chests, his eyes lit up.
Golden coins!
All three chests were overflowing with gold, likely exceeding two thousand coins!
“These guys are quite wealthy, huh.”
Su Nan sighed, then stuffed all the gold into the Magic Cube.
After finishing this, he quickly left the main building and sprinted towards the manor’s exit.
Not long ago, Infiltrator had sent a message: the three people pursuing him seemed to have noticed something was wrong and were rushing towards the manor.
Unfortunately, they were destined to be too late.
Leaving the manor, Su Nan didn’t stop, disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye.
Not long after, three figures stormed into the manor, heading directly for the main building.
Upon seeing the empty secret chamber, Casper nearly fainted.
“Damn thief! Beast!”
Coming back to his senses, a furious Casper smashed the nearby desk with his sword.
The two cultists behind him, speechless, hung their heads, fearful of attracting his wrath.
Just then, a Starfire Sect member rushed in, his face pale with panic. “Priest, bad news! We found the bodies of Braun and Lori in the warehouse…”
Before he could finish, Casper flashed to the member, grabbed his collar, and asked with a grim expression, “The underground warehouse, did anything happen there?”
The member was startled, stammering, “T-the two priests’ bodies were in front of the underground warehouse door. Everything inside the warehouse was taken…”
“A bunch of useless trash!”
Before the member could finish, a furious Casper slapped him on the forehead.
The unfortunate soul didn’t even have time to groan before collapsing, instantly dead.
“Damn you! I’ll find you!”
Casper’s furious roar echoed through the night.
While Casper raged uncontrollably, Su Nan had already returned to his room at the tavern, completely undetected.
Meanwhile, Infiltrator also returned to the vicinity of the tavern, finding a place to hide.
After checking to ensure no one had entered the room in his absence, Su Nan sat down and laid out his spoils from the night.
Looking at the twenty-plus Divine Blood Crystals on the table, Su Nan was overjoyed.
He opened the Magic Cube, placing the Divine Blood Crystals inside one by one, his gaze fixed on the synthesis interface information.
After placing six Divine Blood Crystals, the synthesis interface information finally changed significantly.
**[Divine Blood Crystal, divine blood content 0.4ml, carrying it on your person can significantly increase the attraction to energy particles, has a low level of mental pollution, long-term close contact can cause changes in thinking and cognition, leading to faith in the source of divine blood.]**
Compared to before, the Divine Blood Crystal’s attraction to energy particles now included the word “significantly,” and mental pollution had been significantly reduced.
Excited, Su Nan poured the remaining Divine Blood Crystals into the Magic Cube. The synthesis interface information changed again, significantly.
**[Divine Blood Crystal, divine blood content 1.3ml, upon contact with air, it can attract stray energy particles, forming a high-concentration energy zone, being in this zone will cause slight auditory and visual hallucinations, mental strength above 18 can become immune.]**
“Success!”
Su Nan was ecstatic.
The synthesized Divine Blood Crystal’s mental pollution side effects had completely vanished, leaving only slight auditory and visual hallucinations.
Su Nan guessed those were the prayer voices he had heard and the magnificent palace he had seen.
But as long as there was no mental pollution, a little auditory and visual hallucination was perfectly acceptable.
Besides, once his mental strength reached 18, these side effects would become immune.
Compared to the initial Divine Blood Crystal, the final synthesized product was undoubtedly much better.
Without hesitation, Su Nan chose to synthesize.
The moment he took the synthesized Divine Blood Crystal from the Magic Cube, he distinctly felt the stray energy particles in the air rapidly gathering around it, forming a concentrated energy zone about two meters in radius, centered on the Divine Blood Crystal.
Bathing in the concentrated energy particles, Su Nan felt his spirit clearer and more active than ever before.
Even without consciously absorbing them, numerous energy particles were already entering his body and the depths of his Sea of Consciousness, strengthening his physique while filling the Star Ring.
“Meditating in this environment, the efficiency will at least double, maybe even triple!”
A wave of intense joy surged through Su Nan’s chest.
The effect of the synthesized product was even better than he expected!
With the Divine Blood Crystal, he could reduce his time to advance to Third-Rank Wizard Apprentice by at least half!
Just the Divine Blood Crystal alone made his trip to Stone Bell City worthwhile!
“Meow, what’s going on? Why are all the energy particles gathering around you?”
Amy quickly noticed the anomaly around Su Nan, jumping off the table in surprise, staring at the Divine Blood Crystal in the latter’s hand.
“That Divine Blood Crystal is strange… It seems different somehow.”
“I made some small modifications to it.”
Involving his personal secrets, Su Nan didn’t explain much, simply giving a vague answer before putting away the Divine Blood Crystal, turning his attention to the things on the table.
The items left by Amy’s mysterious owner were mostly books or magical items.
He had already skimmed the books, but the magical items he hadn’t had time to carefully examine due to the urgency of the situation. Now, with some leisure, he took each item and carefully inspected it.
