The preparations to be made before leaving Island 33 have been arranged by Li Nuo.

Obtaining a map of the distribution of non-metallic ore resources and accumulating energy can be done at the same time.

Li Nuo plans to spend a month passively deconstructing the sea area, obtaining energy points, and obtaining the distribution map of non-metallic ores in the archipelago.

His passive deconstructed objects include the Sea of Treasure, the Great Sea, the Sea of Starfall, and the Sea of Black Folds.

These four vast and dangerous deep-sea areas are located in the northern, eastern, southern and western Suman Islands.

With the experience of passively deconstructing four seas at once for the first time, the subsequent deconstruction work will only get smoother and smoother.

Ideally, after a month, Li Nuo would have obtained a map of the distribution of non-metallic ore resources on hundreds of islands while the inventory of energy value would explode.

The second thing that had to be arranged before leaving was the security of Island 33.

Li Nuo assigned a task to Selena and Norin.

Selena remained an employee of her father until she stepped down as vice president.

Her father told her to hide from Lino a little.

No problem.

Li Nuo simply asked Selena not to come to Island 33 in the next six months.

But just because she didn't come doesn't mean she can't take care of it.

Li Nuo arranged a complete set of all-round and non-blind "monitoring positions" on Island 33 in advance.

The "Surveillance Camera" consists of a 100-level "Tracking Marker".

Li Nuo activated the "Psychic Indoctrination" and shared these "tracking marks" for monitoring with Noreen and Selena.

At the same time, he used "enchantment" to make several magic rings and gave them to Selena to use.

These magic rings are enchanted with "Psychic Vision", "Psychic Shield", "Telepathy", "Psychic Grabbing", and "Perception Enhancement".

All of these magic patterns enchanted by Li Nuo's own hands are all level 55.

This is the highest level of magic he can enchant at Enchantment level 55.

With these magic rings, Selena, who is in the academy castle, can guard Island 33 remotely.

Li Nuo wasn't worried about her misusing these mind spells.

For one, the soul contract restricts her actions.

Second, Selena herself was also placed with several "tracking marks" by Li Nuo.

Not only her, but Noreen, Snowwing, and Nicole's soul in the soul stone were all marked by him with "tracking markers".

Except for Nicole, who passively accepted the "tracking mark", Noreen, Selena, and Snowwing Cat all took the initiative to accept it, and Lino did not force them.

The tasks assigned by Li Nuo to Noreen are related to "planting bombs" and "creating machines".

The "guards" of Island 33 are not the magic servants and magic golems commonly used by wizards.

The Mechanics are the faithful guardians here.

Fixed-point robots that can't move, patrol robots that can move back and forth, stealth robots that are invisible, floating robots that hover in the sky, latent robots that lurk in walls and floors...

And so on and so forth.

Wherever it was necessary to protect, Li Nuo designed the corresponding mechanical spirit.

The regular combat ability of these mechanical spirits is only equivalent to that of wizards from one ring to three rings.

But they have the advantage of being numerous, not afraid of attrition, and extremely threatening to self-destruct.

Each machine has a capacitor pack, which can store 100,000 lightning energy.

If an enemy is difficult to destroy or block, Noreen will use the machine to launch an explosive attack.

The only thing that's a pity is that the control of these machines relies on psychic spells.

If the intruder has the ability to break spells, or uses an item with the "Soul Stasis" effect, both the Auto Spirit and Noreen will be paralyzed.

For this reason, Li Nuo assigned a long-term task to Noreen:

Find a way to control the machine spirit with computing power instead of mind spells.

After completing this task, then the mechanical spirits controlled by the computing power of the alchemy array will not be paralyzed by Li Nuo and Nolin's loss of their ability to cast psychic spells.

After Leno arranged the matter, Selena got up and left Island 33.

Before leaving, she threw a somewhat dissatisfied look at Li Nuo, and deliberately accentuated her tone and said:

"I was dizzy this time, and I didn't cast a spell on you to detect your injuries. Next time, don't try to feign your illness in front of me. ”

"Yes, yes, it's what I did wrong." Li Nuo nodded again and again:

"I promise there won't be a next time."

"Hmph, for your sake of being justified this time, I won't bother with you about this." Selena dropped a sentence and left through the main entrance of the study, not flying out of the window again.

Lino sent her out the door and watched her leave the island.

Bending down and picking up the snowwing cat, Li Nuo went to find Dinas while petting the cat.

Halfway up the stairs, he clicked on the deconstruction of Selena's decomposition to view it.

Selena's memory clip has been added to her argument with Ronke.

About an hour ago, she used her flying skills and "water walking" to rush to the Starfall Sea.

She was going to the 13th sub-sea area to find Ronk's whereabouts.

But when she passed by the 18th sub-sea area from north to south, she found Ronk holding a dark cloud on the sea.

Several spell chains stretched out from the opponent's left forearm, binding a dark cloud about a meter in diameter.

The thunder flashed inside this miniature dark cloud, and occasionally electric snakes could be seen swimming, which was obviously summoned by Li Nuo.

Look at Ronk holding the dark clouds again, he is talking to the mysterious man in front of him who is invisible.

Although she couldn't see the true appearance of the mysterious man, Selena immediately deduced the identity of the mysterious man.

It must be the two "Holy Throne" battle wizards who came to assist in the battle.

Selena held back her anger and did not hesitate to go to the trouble of the other three.

After that, Li Nuo didn't need to read the memory to know.

Selena is furious and unexpectedly discovers the true identity of the "Holy Throne" wizard, and then receives a letter from her father...

After this series of events, Ronke, Benz Jire, and Clint Windhawk, as well as Selena's father, are convinced of Leeno's serious injury.

Reading the memory fragment here, Li Nuo's heart was settled.

"As long as others think that I have to recuperate for a long time, then the fact that Dinas and I are secretly exploring the magic ruins will not be leaked out."

Holding the cat, Li Nuo pushed open the door of Dinas's study.

Dinas sat back in her chair, her eyes closed and her expression relaxed.

She's still discussing things with the Reborn Lamp.

After a moment's thought, Leno left the cat behind to accompany Dinas while he cast a flying spell and went underground.

Basement level.

The wooden culture tank has been built.

The pale green medium is stored in a large glass bucket next to it, ready to be filled into the tank.

The Monster materials are encapsulated in a glass jar filled with liquid, which is placed on a dark wooden shelf.

On the ceiling, the magic lamps with the appearance of crystal lamps illuminate the entire basement floor transparently, without the slightest blind spot.

Throughout the walls, there are ducts for ventilation, air windows, and magic circles for ventilation.

Although the air is constantly circulating, the smell of preservatives inevitably wafts through.

The smell wafted from inside the glass jar that sealed the Monster material.

The magic materials in the glass jar include the snake gall bladder and snake paste of the sea snake, the electric storage gland and discharge horn of the thunderbolt monster, the slime and tentacles of the soft monster...

A variety of strangely shaped monster organs are presented in front of you, and then matched with dark, restrained classical furniture style.

If the lights in this place were dimmed, it would be similar to the tissue and organ vault of a horrific serial killer.

When Leno arrived here, Noreen was already busy.

She inspected the materials of the Demonic Beasts on the shelves one by one, checked the fineness and shelf life of the culture liquid, and activated the alchemy array to make the culture liquid, and made a large tank of culture liquid for spare.

Beside her, dozens of spider-like mechanical spirits act as her assistants, circling and flying around her.

Hand out wrenches, hammers, screwdrivers, or carry trays and glass jars, or carry garbage and alchemical materials.

These nimble spider machines, under the control of Norein, work together seamlessly.

"You are here, sir."

Noreen twisted the screws of the array with a wrench, and looked back at Li Nuo behind him:

"I worked out the time when Nicole woke up a few more times. She should wake up in 4 hours. ”

"4 hours.."

Li Nuo looked at the soul stone kept in the metal box and threw out a deconstruction.

Well, right.

Nicole's panel information shows that her slumber time has been shortened by about three hours, and she will wake up after 4 hours and 12 minutes.

Li Nuo focused on the column of "Soul Weaving Final Product".

…

64% chance of being a "baby Sagittarius Heavy Artillery Angel"

14% chance of "Assassination Angel by Baby Scorpio"

15% chance of being a "baby Gemini twin angel"

There is a 5% chance that the soul weave will fail, and the soul and materials will be scrapped.

…

Things don't seem to be rosy.

Li Nuo called up the results of the previous solution for comparison, and his heart felt slightly heavy.

The chance of soul weaving failure has increased from 1% to 5%.

What went wrong?

Li Nuo took a closer look at the soul in the soul stone.

Nicole's appearance is similar to that of an ordinary 18-year-old girl, no longer malnourished and skinny.

She was still wearing an off-the-shoulder dress.

This is what she wore hundreds of years ago, when she received the sacrifice ceremony of the Dianjin Dynasty.

She died during that sacrifice ceremony, and her soul retains the characteristics of the clothes it wore at the time of her death.

Lino's gaze swirled over Nicole's soul and landed on the other party's frowning brow.

Nicole seems to be having a nightmare and acts in some pain.

"Noreen, check Nicole's status again. Something seemed wrong with her. Li Nuo greeted.

When Noreen heard this, she hurried with hurried and fast steps.

As soon as she saw the soul in the soul stone, she whispered:

"Oh! She began to reminisce about the painful experiences she had had in her life, which was not good. The Handbook of Artificial Angel Formation says that if a person has too many bad memories before receiving angel seeds, she may not be able to bear the pain in her memory. ”

Noreen scratched her hair:

"I... I can't seem to help her, sir. According to the Handbook, this is a process that must be gone through when an artificial angel is reborn, just as an oviparous animal must break out of an egg by its own strength. This is the case with Nicole now. ”

Li Nuo threw out several rounds of deconstruction again, refreshing Nicole's panel information.

The remaining time of the other party's sleep has been shortened a bit, and now it only takes 3 hours and 59 minutes to wake up.

No, no, no.

It's not so much an awakening as the final result of the soul weaving.

In terms of souls, Dinas, the reborn witch, is more proficient.

When Dinas sprints to the Wizard of the Four Rings, Leno deconstructs her book.

Among them is an exam book called "A Guide to Caring for the Soul".

According to the book, the biggest difference between the soul body and the spirit body is:

Spirits are self-conscious and know what they want to do and what they can't do.

The soul body is generally confused and ambiguous, unable to distinguish between reality and illusion.

Generally speaking, souls kept in soul containers are still able to maintain a state of consciousness.

For example, Nicole in the Soul Stone, and the out-of-body soul in the Soul Retreat Crystal.

Nicole is now in a situation where she is kept in a soul vessel and is supposed to remain conscious, but she is forced to be involved in bad memories because she is in a deep sleep.

So if she can get out of her slumber early and regain a clear consciousness, will she be able to stop the memories of the sad past?

Li Nuo's eyes lit up, and his brain went around the corner!

He flipped through the "Guide to Soul Care" in his mind and found a case recorded in the book.

The soul in this case is the soul of a wizard who has been devoured by ghouls.

After the person was rescued, he lost his body, leaving only a soul protected by the Soul Retreat Crystal, which is equivalent to a dead person.

He is in a similar situation to Nicole, both of them have died once, and they are in a state of soul sleep.

In this case, the rescue method is to pour soul energy and continuously drip "soul nourishing potion" and "soul revival potion" onto the soul container.

If you can, you can also ask an expert in the soul field to cast a spell such as "Reverse Death Enchantment".

Li Nuo snapped his fingers and found a countermeasure.

He looked at Noreen, who looked nervous next to him, and said:

"Don't worry, Noreen. I've got a solution. You get the culture tank ready, Nicole will probably wake up soon. ”

"Yes! Mr. ”

Noreen nodded, and instructed the robot to open the water inlet of the tank and begin to deliver liquid into the wooden tank.

Leno called out Dinas's name in his heart.

After about two minutes, Dinas's cheerful voice rang in his head:

"yes~ That's it, Lee!" "The professor promised to help, and the treatment she gave was very generous~"

"Dinas, we'll talk about this later, you come to the basement first, Nicole needs help." Li Nuo said.

"Oooh! Good! I'll be right away! ”

Dinas turned into a small torch and flew from the fifth floor above ground to the first floor below, and at a glance she saw Nicole frowning.

She casts a detection spell to check on Nicole's condition and pulls her books out of her magic pocket.

In order to make sure that there was no misdiagnosis, she double-checked the contents of the book several times before pulling out her wand and began to cast the spell.

Just as Li Nuo judged, the rebirth spell could deal with Nicole's anomaly.

The tip of Dinas's staff casts a warm firelight that illuminates the Soul Stone and the nearby tabletop.

First there is a "Reverse Death Blessing", then a "Intermediate Pain Suppression", then a "Defense Death Blessing", and finally a "Soul Healing" specifically designed to heal soul wounds.

A round of spells was lowered, and Nicole's brow visibly furrowed.

Li Nuo threw out the deconstruction technique and nodded slowly.

Nicole's sleep time has been reduced to about 1 hour, and the probability of soul weaving failure has been reduced back to 1%.

Dinas held her wand and stood next to the Soul Stone, gazing at Nicole's soul and muttering:

"Come on! Nicole! Wake up! If you can open your eyes, you'll be able to get rid of your nightmares! ”

Nicole seemed to hear her words, her closed eyes squirmed, and the pupils under her eyelids trembled slightly.

Dinas threw another round of spells.

Nicole's white fingers twitched, and the signs of awakening became more and more obvious.

Li Nuo threw out the deconstruction technique and looked at it, and immediately turned his head to look at the culture tank:

"Noreen, speed up some of the infusion, Nicole is waking up. Ready to put her in the culture tank. ”

"Yes! Mr! Noreen turned the liquid line valve.

"Wow~~~~"

More than 10 centimeters thick water beads appeared in the culture tank, and the pale green water surface quickly rose.

When the liquid was full, Noreen opened the round skylight at the top of the tank and said:

"Sir, you can put in the soul stone."

Dinas throws a third round of spells.

After she finished casting the spell, Li Nuo used the "Heart Energy Grabbing" to pick up the soul stone and put it into the circular skylight of the cultivation tank.

Noreen closed the skylight and activated the magic circle on the base of the tank.

"Hum..."

A gray glow that symbolizes the energy of the soul lights up on the carved pattern of the wooden base.

From now on, until the magic circle is closed, the entire cultivation tank is a large soul container that preserves the soul.

Even without the Soul Stone, Nicole's soul would not dissipate.

Li Nuo threw out the deconstruction technique to confirm that the magic circle was working normally, and then used the "Heart Energy Grabbing" to crush the soul stone suspended in the culture liquid.

"Click..."

The fragile soul stone was strife, turning into crystalline shards and sinking to the bottom of the tank.

Noreen activated the water exchange circle at the base, extracting the debris along with the culture liquid, and filling in new culture liquid to fill the liquid loss in the tank.

At the moment when the soul stone shattered, Nicole's soul evolved from the size of a palm to a normal human body.

In just three or five seconds, there was an extra slender soul girl in the cultivation tank.

She hugged her knees like a baby, curled up in a ball, suspended in a pale green liquid.

Minutes and seconds passed.

The moment the countdown on the panel information went to zero, Nicole's eyes struggled and struggled to open.

She slowly lowered her bent legs, lowered her hands, and stared blankly at the three figures outside the tank.

Dinas shook her wand and projected a detection spell:

“… Uh, Jarvis, something seems to have gone wrong. Nicole's soul had awakened and was not hurt, but she..."

Dinas paused, smiled wryly and continued:

"But her heart was sealed by a strange mark on her forehead."

Nicole's soul remained in a dress, and the overall appearance remained unchanged, but in the center of her forehead, there was an extra white mark of a "curved dagger".

Noreen folded her hands on her chest and looked at Li Nuo:

"Sir, have we failed?"

Li Nuo shook his head slightly, and while reading the results of the solution, he said:

"So far, there have been no failures, and we are only one step away from success." (End of chapter)
