Chapter 248: Heart of the Sun

A dimly lit underground hall.

If a second person had been present, a young man in thick leather armor would have sat motionless on the ground, his face hideous, his whole body convulsed, and his forehead covered with dense beads of sweat.

On the ground, three or four meters away from the young man, there was a small ball glowing with blazing white light.

The ball not only began to glow, but also levitated little by little, and after reaching a height of about a meter above the ground, it approached the young man's body little by little.

After about five or six minutes, the ball approached the young man's side and hovered less than 20 centimeters from the center of his eyebrows.

"Ah~~~~"

The young man's mouth was wide open and a hoarse roar came out of his throat, as if he was experiencing great pain, but his body remained in place, never making any movement to escape.

As time passed, the ball of light grew brighter and brighter, illuminating the entire underground hall as bright as day. It also grew in size, starting at the size of a fist, but it expanded rapidly, until it was as big as a silver platter, and the ball of light stabilized.

The strange thing is that between the young man and the ball of light, there is a thin ray of light, and from the direction of the flow of light, it seems that something in the ball of light is constantly flowing into the young man's body.

The young man was naturally Rosen, and in the midst of the intense pain, he had a thought in his head: 'Why did I use magic to probe such a?' Why is this damn ball so good in Amran's hands? ’

Amran is also a magician, and a powerful four-star magician. To say that Amran did not use magic to probe the structure of the sphere, Rosen did not believe it a hundred, a thousand.

The heat grew stronger and stronger, and it seemed that the next moment would burn his body to ashes, but strangely, this 'next moment' never came.

In the midst of great pain, Lawson waited left and right, and did not know how long it had been, whether it was half an hour or most of the day, but it turned out that he was still alive.

'What's going on?' Rosen was a little confused, and a thought popped into his mind: 'By the way, this thing shouldn't be dead.' Nine times out of ten, Amran has experienced a similar situation, isn't he still alive and well afterwards? ’

Thinking like this, the pressure in Rosen's heart suddenly decreased.

Although the process was a little painful, judging from Amran's lively performance, there should be no sequelae left by this incident. In this case, this experience was nothing more than a punishment for the failure of the experiment, although it was quite terrifying, but he admitted it.

After another moment, Rosen suddenly felt a darkness in front of him, and the endless white light suddenly disappeared without a trace, just as abruptly as when it appeared.

At the same time, the blazing burning sensation was gone, and the air around it became cold and wet again, with some rotting stench.

"It's over?"

Rosen's heart was relieved, and he cautiously opened his eyes, which were dim, and the only light was the burning torch on the distant wall.

He immediately reached out and touched his body, especially the skin everywhere on his body, and as a result, the skin was intact, no burns, no blisters, just a lot of sweat.

After confirming that he was safe and sound, Lawson immediately turned his head to look for the golden orb on the ground in the distance.

At this look, he was stunned again.

The ball was still there, but not where it was, but at his feet. But the strange thing is that the ball is no longer golden, but gray, and the surface is no longer the faint white streamer, and it looks like an ordinary stone.

"Is this thing broken?"

Lawson's heart tightened, and he reached out to pick up the ball.

At the moment when the ball was in his hands, he heard a soft sound of 'poof~', and the ball turned into stone powder, and as soon as the breeze blew, the stone powder flew everywhere, as if it were burning embers.

“.......”

"Ka Cha ~~ Ka Cha ~~~"

There was another sound in my ear, and it sounded like a stone cracking. Rosen followed the sound and found that the corpse of the dead guard had also become dusty, and there were cracks on the surface of the corpse that were spreading rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, the entire corpse was covered.

'Wow~~'

The body of the Dead Guard collapsed in an instant, turning into a pile of stone powder on the ground.

"it...... How is this going on? Uncle, I still have to use your body to detoxify, why did you collapse? ”

Lawson hurriedly rushed forward, reaching out to pick up the stone dust on the ground.

At this time, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, and he hoped that the stone powder would still retain its detoxifying properties. In order to verify this, Lawson activated his magic power regardless of the risk of being electrocuted, and used it to probe the composition of the stone powder.

It turned out to be jaw-dropping.

'Granite...... How can this thing be granite powder? What the hell is going on? This dead guard has been fine for so long, why did it suddenly collapse? ’

originally thought that he had found an antidote to the destruction toxin, but in the blink of an eye, this antidote turned into a pile of waste because of one of his mistakes, and this feeling of ups and downs made Lawson's mood quite broken.

'The antidote is gone, and the research on the detoxification is clueless, can I really only use the sage Niya's method?' ’

'No, can't give up. Maybe this stone powder also has a special detoxification effect...... Yes, do the experiment, I'll get a monster to do the experiment. Rosen kept cheering himself up.

He reached out and grabbed a large handful of stone powder, wrapped it in a cloth, put it in his waist bag, and then adjusted his weapon, and walked in the direction of the exit of the passage.

For now, the monster is divided into two categories. One type of eyes is bright and very powerful, and it cannot be underestimated. The other person's eyes are dark, and his movements are as stiff as marionettes, and there is basically no danger in catching this kind of monster. Hopefully I'll be lucky enough to meet the latter. By the way, you can also kill a few monsters and earn a free talent point. ’

Thinking of the free talent point, Rosen subconsciously glanced at the situation of the alchemy talent tree.

After a glance, Lawson was stunned and subconsciously stopped.

On the alchemy talent tree, it is impressively displayed that he has 12 free talents, and he is only 3 points away from lighting up the second key to becoming a great magician: the magic contract.

The sudden increase in free talent points by several points is not counted, it may be because he killed a powerful tree demon puppet, what really surprised Rosen was that above the talent tree, there was a golden icon.

The icon has the words 'Heart of the Sun' on it, along with a note next to it.

'Heart of the Sun.

Effect 1: Increases the user's energy pool recovery speed by 200 times for 20 seconds. (Activated, cooldown 2 days.) )

Effect 2: The user will gain a new ability: Quantum Super Sense. In this state, the user's elemental mastery ability is doubled, and elemental perception is doubled. Users can directly observe the probabilistic cloud distribution of microscopic particles. ’

(Note: The power of the gods fills your body.) )

Rosen was stunned for a moment, just from the literal description, he felt that this Sun Heart was a great skill. The effect of effect 1 is clear at a glance, and it can help him quickly recover energy. This is a very powerful support combat skill.

The new ability in Effect 2, Quantum Super Sense, this thing is a bit mysterious.

Now, with the help of alchemy, Rosen can observe the realm of molecules and atoms. If this quantum supersense is further improved for him, wouldn't it be directly into the subatomic realm?

I see, I see, it must be the effect of the Death Guard Heart...... Oh my God, I've absorbed the heart of the Dead Guard. That's kind of amazing...... I'm going to verify the results quickly, and maybe I'll be able to use my newfound quantum supersensing abilities to do further research. ’

'No, I'm going to have to grab a Tree Demon Golem and study it!' ’

Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, he trotted in the direction of the exit of the underground sewer.
