Chapter 616: Experiment
The diameter of the hole dug by the shovel was about one and a half meters and a half, and to be on the safe side, the moon star let Meier stay on it, and the ancient elements below were very likely to invalidate the source of magic power in her body, so that no two of them would be trapped underneath at that time.
Wrapping his body in magic, he slid down the hole little by little, not noticing anything unusual, so Moonstar gradually picked up speed, and soon stepped on a hard object.
"Is it already the end?" Turning on the flashlight, Yuexing crouched down and began to study what was blocking the excavation of the shovel, this seemed to be a large piece of pure metal, extremely hard, and the ancient elements should be just below this, most of them were adsorbed on the back of this metal, because the ground here was very wet, and the nutrients of the roots of the tree were condensed on this piece of metal, and the ancient elements could only absorb enough magic power by relying on it.
I dug a distance around with a shovel, and this piece of metal was very large, taking up a full space of more than ten meters!
In this way, let alone turning the metal block over to get the ancient element, it can't even move it a little, and this situation can only be decided after discussing it with Meier.
Back on the ground, Moonstar told Mel what was going on, which was the most troublesome news, they were almost in two worlds with the ancient elements, and the metal block became the biggest obstacle.
"Can that piece of metal conduct electricity?" asked Mel, crouching down at the mouth of the cave.
"I don't know, probably, I've never seen anything like this, it's not the same composition as other metals, but you can try. "Moonstar magically drew an inscription on the edge of the cave entrance, slowly injecting electricity into the cave through the inscription, and did not stop until it came into contact with the metal.
The affinity between the ancient elements and magic is good, and it is a world of difference compared to the nutrients that come from the roots of trees.
"You can take it back, don't let it enter the body, the human body can't withstand half and fifty percent of the concentration of magic power. "Mel had prepared a container for the ancient elements, a jar completely isolated from the outside world.
Yuexing carefully recycled his magic power, and with a little force, the ancient elements attached to his magic power would take the opportunity to drill into his body, which was a very dangerous process, but as long as he survived these few minutes, it would be over.
"Whew-"
The sound of electricity gradually reached her ears, and Mel could already see the magic of the moon star as she approached the entrance of the cave. The mass of electricity was wrapped in a dark golden substance, and the breath of magic could not be felt from its body at all, which showed that the ancient element had exceeded the cognition of modern magicians, and the concentration of fifty percent of the magic power had long exceeded the limit of ordinary magicians.
"It's almost, just put it in. Mel handed the jar over and motioned for the moon star to put the dark golden thing inside, although the ancient element was not a living thing, but once it came into contact with other things, I don't know what kind of effect it would have, and it must not be allowed to come out of the jar until it reaches the Micheng Academy safely and is thoroughly studied.
"Whew-"
Through the jar, you can see that the ancient elements inside are emitting a faint light, and it took two days to finally get some gains, and now I can finally go back.
When she returned to Micheng Academy from the mountain, it was already dark, and Yuexing and Meier had not eaten yet, but Yuexing was full of thoughts and only wanted to go back to take a shower, and she couldn't find a second place suitable for her except to stay in the dormitory in this stuffy weather.
"Ah, it's finally back. Yuexing turned on the switch of the light, but suddenly caught a glimpse of a pair of white high heels in the shoe cabinet.
"What's wrong?" asked Mel, looking at Moonstar with a serious face.
"When did that guy come......"
Smoke from the balcony slowly drifted into the living room, where Vissen was alone leaning against the guardrail and smoking, her eyes glowing blue in the night sky, and she snuffed out the cigarette after spitting out a smoke ring.
"You haven't been back for two days, what's the matter with those luggage?" asked Vison as he walked into the living room, pointing to the backpack behind Mel and the black box in his hand, "Yuexing, I remember you don't like going out, right?"
"Leave me alone, and how did you get in? The housekeeper is gone, so you don't have the key. ”
"I didn't even close the balcony door before leaving, and Building E only has two floors, so even a three-year-old child can climb up. Vieson continued to interrogate, "Lord Negna has instructed me to keep a good record of your whereabouts, he doesn't want you to do anything dangerous, tell me where you two have been these days. ”
"I said you don't care!"
The room was suddenly filled with the smell of gunpowder, and Yuexing's breathing became more and more rapid, and even the magic began to overflow his body.
"Yuexing, don't be noisy, Mr. Weisen just cares about us. "Meier can't sit idly by anymore, if you let Wei Sen know about the ancient elements, it will be troublesome, and you must quickly find a reason to hide it, "Wei Sen, I and Moon Star are camping in the nearby forest, I'm sorry, I made this request, because I have been living in the city before, and I have never been in contact with the natural world, so please don't blame Moon Star anymore." ”
"Hmph, why won't she tell me...... Okay, I know, it's not early, you haven't eaten yet, the restaurant has dinner, and I've already turned on the hot water, so let's have a good rest after eating. Wessen walked to the door, changed into his high heels, relit a cigarette and left the dormitory.
"Goodbye, Mr. Wiesen. Mel gave Visen a little send, while Moonstar was still standing there sulking, she seemed to have a lot of grievances with Visen, and this dissatisfaction was very similar to a certain feeling in this world.
"Okay Yuexing, Teacher Weisen doesn't seem to suspect anything, don't be angry, she also cares about us and said that. Let's take a shower and eat, and tomorrow we'll study the ancient elements. Melle glanced at the dinner on the table, the time inscription on it had only been lifted since Wesson was gone.
Yuexing walked into the bathroom with a gloomy face and a change of clothes, and even the voice when she put hot water was very manic, probably because it was prepared for her by Visen.
The next morning, Yuexing woke up in the cool breeze blowing in from the window, and Mel, who was sleeping next to her, didn't know where she went, and her notebook disappeared into the room along with the ancient magic materials and the jar containing the ancient elements.
"Sure enough, it's here. Yuexing changed her clothes and came to the test site with a hot breakfast, this is the safest place to conduct experiments, Mel doesn't know how long she has been here, and the devil knows what time she ran over last night.
"How's it going, is there any progress?" Moonstar handed breakfast to Mel in front of the test table, who was using the robot to explore the ancient elements.
"Not at all, but do you feel like that ancient element has expanded in a big circle? Mel threw the image from the lab onto the virtual screen, and the dark golden substance on it was indeed much larger than when she got it back yesterday.
"Probably because they absorbed my magic power, that's 50% of the magic concentration, even if it gets bigger overnight, it's not surprising. Besides, we don't know anything about the ancient elementals, and maybe it absorbs the magic molecules in the air. ”
"I've put it in that jar, and it's absolutely insulated from the outside world. ”
"Forget it, let's leave this alone, is there anything unusual about it?"
"Nothing else happened except that it got a little bigger, it and all the elements couldn't make an attraction, but at the same time it was a mixture of all the elements, and the dark golden surface we saw was just a mixture of magic, and it didn't know what it looked like inside, and it couldn't be cut with any substance. "Mel told Moonstar everything from the experiment to the present.
"It is inevitable that it cannot be cut, the shell that condenses all the elements and the concentration of fifty percent of the magic power, even if you use the sharpest sword to cut it, it is impossible to cut into it. The most basic reason for the disappearance of ancient elements is probably because after the matter in the body decomposes, all the elemental components collapse, maybe this is the key to restraining ancient magic. ”
After listening to Yuexing's words, Meier suddenly opened the door of the laboratory and walked in quickly.
"Hey!" Moonstar had already touched the appearance of the ancient element when she was about to stop her, but she didn't seem to react, and neither side noticed anything unusual.
"As long as you can cut a small piece, you can restore the ancient magic through it, using the lightning of the moon star as its medium, the ancient magic will increase the magic concentration of lightning to fifty percent, and with the activation of the upper spell, it will produce very destructive power. "Mel tried to use her magic to break down the ancient elements, but she couldn't.
"I said, you, it's too risky, but luckily it doesn't have any other negative phenomena. "Yuexing really pinched a cold sweat just now, but fortunately, there was nothing wrong with Mai Er, who touched the ancient element.
"Since it is so thoughtful in protecting itself, the power inside will not leak out, and these elements on the outside alone can't cause harm to people, don't worry, I thought about it before I dared to touch it. Meier's conjecture seemed to be very reasonable, and Yuexing didn't care, after all, the mystery of ancient magic that had plagued mankind for thousands of years could not be solved like this, and it would take time to refine it if it was to restore the true ancient magic.
"If you can cut the ancient element, it means that there must be a way to dissolve it, and you may be able to use it to destroy the whole technique. Mel, try dismantling the elemental structure on the outside, but once it is removed, the power inside may be unleashed, so let's retreat outside first. ”
"Hmm. Mel agreed with Moonstar's approach, as long as the elemental composition was dismantled carefully enough, a small piece of ancient elemental could be detached, and studying its internal composition was the best way to understand ancient magic.
