Chapter 189: Mana Crystallization
"You..... Damn!"
In a large room, at the head of the bed, Griffin's eyes were open, and there was blood, tyranny, and a palpable madness.
Just looking at each other, it seems that you can feel that sense of madness, and that feeling of being mentally distorted.
At the head of the bed, he stretched out his arm and grabbed it fiercely in front of Chen Heng's chest, as if he wanted to kill Chen Heng directly with one blow and dig out his heart directly.
In this regard, Chen Heng's face was calm, and he looked at it calmly.
In front of him, the arm reached forward and grabbed at Chen Heng's chest, but it was blocked outside his clothes.
An invisible barrier unfolded, blocking Griffin's arm and preventing him from further.
This is the enchantment technique performed by the demonized items on Chen Heng's body.
When he came back this time, Chen Heng was very well prepared.
In the past, Chari once gave Chen Heng a magic weapon and put it on his body.
After Chen Heng returned, this magic weapon was not recovered, and it was still placed on Chen Heng's body as a means for Chari to protect his students.
The Guardian Ring was a real magic weapon, and the magic cast on it was also a true enchantment, which could be blocked even if it was a formal wizard's spell.
In addition, Chen Heng's body also has many demonized items made by himself.
These items are also capable of casting spells, and they are not weak in any way.
With these preparations, even if Chen Heng stood still and let Griffin keep attacking, I am afraid that nothing would happen.
"The mental state has come to this point. ”
Looking at Griffin lying on the head of the bed, Chen Heng frowned.
He could feel that Griffin was in a terrible state at the moment.
That chaotic mental fluctuation was something he had never seen before.
This also shows that Griffin's state is clearly in a state of madness at the moment.
Before entering the room, the people of the Duo Wu family had explained to Chen Heng and asked him to be careful of Griffin's riot.
At that time, Chen Heng had already made appropriate psychological preparations.
But now, Griffin's situation is much worse than he imagined.
Such a state of mind, to be honest, is no longer suitable for continuing to be a wizard.
A wizard's greatest power lies in his ability to cast spells.
And if you want to cast spells, you need to be mentally stable enough.
Otherwise, the mental state is not stable enough, and it is impossible to build a stable spell template.
Even if you have mana in your body, you can't use it.
Standing there in silence, Chen Heng thought for a long time, and finally sighed.
He then walked out of the room.
Outside the room, the middle-aged man from before was still standing there, and at this moment, seeing Chen Heng walking out of the room, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Young Master Ed, you are not injured, are you?"
"Nope. ”
Chen Heng shook his head: "Grandfather, when did the situation on him start?"
"Seems to have ...... four months ago"
The middle-aged man thought for a moment, and then said, "At that time, Lord Griffin found a pair of very cherished materials, so he wanted to experiment. ”
"It's just that in the end, the adult was affected in the experiment, and his mental state was problematic, and he fainted directly. ”
"Since then, Master Griffin has fallen into a deep sleep, and when he wakes up, he usually kills. ”
Speaking of this, a palpitation appeared on his face, as if he had thought of some fearful scene, and he seemed a little frightened.
"Send someone over and keep watch over this place. ”
Chen Heng sighed softly, and then said, "I will try to make my grandfather return to normal as much as possible." ”
He said this, but he didn't have much hope in his heart.
The subject of mental power is a big problem.
It's hard for even an official wizard to solve, let alone the current Chen Heng.
This time, he came back with a lot of potions, some of which could have a restorative effect.
It's just that how much of a role this will have for Griffin is unknown.
"What has changed in the surrounding situation?"
Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, Chen Heng then opened his mouth and asked, "What about the attitudes of other families?"
"For the time being, nothing has changed. ”
The middle-aged man shook his head and looked at Chen Heng, his face was a little hesitant: "The news that Lord Griffin is in a coma is only known to a few people now, and the other families don't know about it......
"But if it goes down in the long run......"
His face looked a little hesitant, and he didn't seem to be sure.
Chen Heng understood what he meant.
Wizards are creatures that have lived for a long time, and except for a few, most of the other wizards basically like to stay in their own laboratories, but do not like to go out.
And as a wizard who studies the subject of negative energy, Griffin is even more so.
In the past, Griffin didn't usually see many people a year.
In this case, even if Griffin is in a coma at the moment, it will take a long time for the news to get out and be known by others.
At least normally, within a year or two, there should be no problem.
But after a long time, the rest of the family will know after all.
When the time comes, it will be easy to have problems.
At this moment, apart from Chen Heng, the Duo Wu family only has Griffin, a third-level apprentice.
To put it bluntly, the Duo Wu family can have the status at this moment, and it can basically rely on Griffin, a third-level apprentice, to do it.
Without Griffin, their status would have plummeted.
Those families who had conflicts with the Duo Wu family in the past, as well as some of the rest of the people, will inevitably attack the Duo Wu family and take away everything they have.
This is also the reason why the Duo Wu family is in a hurry to call Chen Heng back.
Thinking of this, Chen Heng couldn't help but shake his head.
In his opinion, this is not a problem.
The resources occupied by the Duo Wu family at the moment were nothing in his opinion.
In this continent, although the Duo Wu family is a nobleman, it only occupies a small country, and as for other resources, there is not much at all.
Just such a small resource, in Chen Heng's opinion, is nothing at all.
In the vast Hemu area, there are some unoccupied territories, which is really not good, and when the time comes, just find a place to start over, there is nothing to worry about.
And for wizards, the resources of the mortal realm are indeed nothing.
There is nothing left except that mortals can be sold as slaves in exchange for some pitiful magic stones.
That's what the Duo Wu family used to do.
But this process, in Chen Heng's opinion, really has no technical content, and the substitution is too high.
If it's gone, it's gone.
All kinds of thoughts flashed in Chen Heng's heart, and his face remained calm: "What about the pair of experimental subjects before?"
"Still in the castle. ”
The middle-aged man thought for a moment, and then said, "Since that day, he has been locked up by us, and he is still in the bunker. ”
"Bring them out. ”
Chen Heng thought for a moment, and then said, "Let me see, what is special about them." ”
The middle-aged man nodded respectfully, quickly turned around, and walked on.
After a while, Chen Heng saw the pair of experimental objects.
To his surprise, the pair of experimental subjects in front of him turned out to be a pair of young girls.
"Girl?"
In the room, Chen Heng frowned, raised his head, and looked at the two girls in front of him seriously.
Under his gaze, the appearance of the two girls in front of him was revealed.
This is a pair of very young girls, only about ten years old, and they look very small.
They were wearing a regular uniform, which was already tattered and tattered, unable to hide the key parts of their bodies, and looked extremely dirty.
From the outside, it looks like a pair of twin sisters, but other than that, there's nothing special.
At this moment, they were standing in the center of the room, meeting Chen Heng's gaze, their whole bodies trembling, looking very frightened.
Looking at the two little girls, Chen Heng seemed to notice that there seemed to be many subtle scars on the bodies of the two girls, although they had healed, they still left many traces.
"What's going on?"
Looking at the scars on the two little girls, he frowned a little and looked at the old housekeeper on the side.
"It's Master Griffin's previous experiment......"
On the side, meeting Chen Heng's sight, the old housekeeper spoke softly and said so.
"Experimental ......"
Chen Heng couldn't help frowning, thinking of some not-so-friendly memories.
The original body of his body was brought to teach by Griffin since he was a child, and thus witnessed many of Griffin's experiments.
And in his memory, Griffin's experiments never seemed to be normal.
Various tortures of the subject, excite his most painful and desperate feelings, and observe the reaction of negative energy, which is the most frequent experiment of Griffin's daily life.
And the appearance of these two little girls reminded Chen Heng of the experience in the past.
Sitting on the wooden chair, thinking of this, he shook his head secretly, and then continued to look ahead, looking at the two little girls: "What are your names?"
His gaze was fixed on the two little girls.
As he watched, the bodies of the two little girls seemed to tremble slightly, as if instinctively feeling a little frightened.
After a long while, under the malicious gaze of the people around them, they said their names tremblingly.
The names of the two little girls are Ariel and Vilido.
According to them, they came from outside, from another place, came here by ship, and were bought by Griffin.
Other than that, they don't know anything.
They didn't seem to have come from any special family, and their parents were just ordinary farmers, who sold them to slave traders for some money, and finally passed them to Griffin.
Looking at them, Chen Heng shook his head secretly, and then thought for a moment before he spoke: "Take them down and change their clothes." ”
When the words fell, the old housekeeper on the side nodded, and then silently stepped forward and took the two little girls away.
......................
In the following days, Chen Heng began to get busy.
Within the Duo Wu family, Griffin was still in a coma, and his mental state was really poor.
In order to solve this situation, Chen Heng tried many methods.
He fed Griffin the potion he had brought from the Hunter's House Academy, and used sedation in an attempt to stabilize Griffin's spirit.
As it turned out, this practice had a certain effect.
Under the dual effect of potions and spells, Griffin's mental state stabilized slightly, but he still couldn't wake up.
His crazy mental turmoil still hadn't completely subsided, but he had fewer seizures.
Moreover, once Chen Heng's spell appeasement was lost, Griffin would riot again.
The occurrence of this situation made Chen Heng feel a headache.
But fortunately, at this time, Chen Heng has nothing to do for the time being, so he can try it slowly, and there is no need to rush for a while.
Time passed slowly.
A few days later.
In a spacious and quiet room, Chen Heng was busy in it.
In the center of the room, there is a small stone slab, on the stone slab, at this moment, a series of fine witch arrays have been depicted, which looks very complex and mysterious.
Chen Heng was still busy on it.
With the formation of the witch array, Chen Heng thought for a moment, and then placed a gem on top of the witch array.
Then, a faint golden glow bloomed.
Within the pure ruby, there is an extremely pure mana, which is instilled into the near witch array, driving the formation of the witch array.
It didn't take long for the witch array to spread under Chen Heng's gaze, blooming with a pale golden brilliance.
"Alright. ”
Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Heng couldn't help but smile: "Sure enough, it was successful." ”
The witch array in front of him is nothing else, it is the witch array used to test the wizard's qualifications.
In the past, if you wanted to operate a witch array of this level, you needed at least fifty magic stones to succeed.
But now, Chen Heng didn't use the magic stone, and he successfully made the witch array work.
Chen Heng's past plan has been successful.
As early as when he was in the Hunter's House Academy, he had already completed the transformation of the pattern array, and successfully transformed some of the pattern arrays in the Azure Realm into the witch array of this world.
This includes a pattern for storing spiritual power.
And in this world, the pattern array used to store spiritual power in the Azure Realm has become a witch array used to store wizard mana.
With this thing, there is a possibility of replacing some of the magic stones needed by the witch array.
In essence, the magic stone is a crystallization formed by the condensation of highly concentrated elemental particles, which is a kind of energy.
And the energy contained in it is somewhat different from the mana obtained by the wizard by transforming elemental particles, but it is actually not much different.
This is also the reason why magic stones can become hard currency between wizards.
And the gap between the magic stone and the mana is mainly in the quantity.
The energy contained in a magic stone is very huge.
According to Chen Heng's measurements, the energy contained in just one magic stone, if it is completely released, is about equivalent to fifty libraries.
And Fifty Ku is already the amount of all the mana in the body of a peak second-level apprentice.
If a second-level apprentice can have fifty pools of mana stock, then in terms of mana, he has already reached the level of being promoted to a third-level apprentice, and as long as he masters a corresponding spell template, he is a third-level apprentice.
And such a second-level apprentice, the stock of mana in his body is equivalent to a magic stone.
In a way, this is a very harsh reality.
It is precisely because of this that many witch arrays will use magic stones as a source of energy, rather than the wizard's own mana.
It's just that if you can keep the usual mana of many wizards and store it in a special container to form a mana crystalline condensed by mana, then it may not be a substitute for magic stones.
In the past, there was no technology in the Hemu region that could store mana and condense it into mana crystallization, so this method naturally could not be done.
But now, it's different.
The red gem in front of him was the carrier that Chen Heng used to store mana, which stored all the mana that Chen Heng had stored in the past two years or so.
Among them were not only his own, but also the other apprentices of the Academy.
Converted into magic stones, it is almost the amount of fifty magic stones.
It is just right to use it to run the witch circle in front of you.
In front of him, with the mana crystallization slowly blooming energy, the witch array operated smoothly, blooming with a pale golden brilliance in front of Chen Heng's eyes.
Then, Chen Hengcai turned around and looked at the outside world.
"Come in. ”
Looking at the figure standing in the room outside, Chen Heng's face was calm and he spoke directly.
Then, there was a burst of footsteps.
One by one, the figures walked in directly.
It was a member of the Duo Wu family, and under Chen Heng's call, they all walked in.
Since the witch array has finally been operated, in order to avoid waste, it is simply used.
This is also the main reason why Chen Heng called these people.
Because of the need to consume magic stones to activate the witch array, the cost of the wizard's qualification test is very high, and not everyone can afford it.
Other than that, it's a bit time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Therefore, even if they come from a wizarding family, few people can be tested.
This time it was just right.
Under Chen Heng's call, one by one the people without a family came here, looking ahead with a somewhat apprehensive face, and then walked onto the stone slab engraved with the witch array.
Subsequently, reactions varied.
No surprise to Chen Heng.
Most of the clansmen of the Duo Wu family who came to test this time lacked the qualifications of wizards.
However, it is not without exceptions.
There are two clansmen with qualifications, but unfortunately, they are all first-class qualifications, which are the lowest kind.
According to the normal situation, if there is no accident, I am afraid that I will not be able to become a third-level apprentice in this life, and I can only struggle at the level of a first-level apprentice or a second-level apprentice.
That's pretty good, though.
After all, being able to have a wizard qualification and become a wizard is a kind of luck in itself.
Even if he is only a first-level apprentice, under the influence of the mana in his body, the strength of his body will gradually increase, which will gradually make him different, far beyond that of mortals.
If you are a second-level apprentice, as long as you work hard enough, you may even be able to master spells.
It's just that it's undoubtedly more difficult.
The speed of the Wu Array's detection was very fast, and it didn't take long for all the members of the entire Duo Wu family to have been tested.
And at this moment, the witch array can continue for a while.
