High Energy Zone
by spirapiraHiss, hiss!
The sword blade imbued with combat energy tore through the air, stirring up an ear-piercing sonic boom!
In almost the blink of an eye, Su Nan was caught in the deadly danger of being besieged.
However, there was no trace of panic on his face. His right hand shot out like lightning, grabbing the sword blade coming at him from the right.
With a dull thud, the sword blade seemed to cut into tough leather. The light of combat energy fiercely battled against a yellow halo but could never break through.
On the other side, the long sword attacking from the left was also blocked by an invisible shield, unable to advance.
The fierce attacks by the two knights, prepared for a long time, were effortlessly neutralized.
“Are the other two officiants all here? Perfect, I’ll deal with you together.”
Su Nan stood up straight, casting an indifferent glance over the two on either side.
The two officiants, still in shock, were infuriated seeing their enemy completely dismissing them and charged forward again with a shout.
Without hesitation, Su Nan threw out two rune gemstones. Blazing flames and blinding lightning erupted fiercely, surging forward like a ferocious dragon, engulfing the two instantly.
After the deafening roar, there were two more corpses on the ground.
“Meow, Su Nan is amazing!” Amy cheered from the side.
The little guy, although simple-minded, seemed unfazed by the gory scene of death, likely used to its previous owner’s bloodied hands.
After taking care of the two officiants, the remaining Starfire Cult members seemed intimidated and no longer dared to stand in Su Nan’s way.
With wind element energy particles augmenting him, he sprinted, arriving at the main building deep in the manor after barely ten breaths with Amy.
“The items are on the second floor!” Amy’s paw, chubby and furry, pointed to the room in the middle of the second floor.
Su Nan leapt up high on the spot, breaking through the window to enter the room, then following Amy’s guidance, burst through a wall, uncovering a secret chamber.
Inside, it was empty except for a stone platform and three boxes.
On the stone platform lay exactly what he had come for: the Divine Blood Amber.
Twenty-four pieces in total!
Su Nan graciously accepted the lot.
Counting the ones from before, he now had twenty-six Divine Blood Ambers.
And when Su Nan opened the other three boxes, his eyes sparkled brightly.
Glittering gold coins!
All three boxes were filled with gold coins, roughly estimated to be over two thousand!
“I didn’t expect these guys to be quite wealthy.”
Su Nan sighed, then stuffed all the gold coins into his cube.
After finishing this, he quickly left the main building, dashing towards the manor’s exit.
Just a short while ago, Hidden Dragon had relayed information that the three pursuing him seemed to have sensed something wrong and were heading back to the manor.
But they were destined to be too late.
Rushing out of the manor, Su Nan did not stop, disappearing into the night in an instant.
Not long after, three figures stormed into the manor, heading straight for the main building.
When they saw the looted secret chamber, Kasper nearly fainted.
“Damn thief! Beast!”
Coming to his senses, an extremely angry Kasper smashed a nearby desk with his sword.
The two officiants behind him, as quiet as cicadas in winter, hung their heads low, not daring to say a word, lest they attract bad luck.
At this moment, a Starfire Cult member rushed in, looking panic-stricken, and reported, “Priest, bad news. We’ve found the bodies of Brawn and Lori officiants near the warehouse..”
Before he could finish speaking, Kasper’s figure flashed next to the cult member, grabbing his collar with a face like thunder, “What about the underground warehouse, is everything there alright?”
The cult member was startled and stammered, “The b-bodies are just at the warehouse entrance, everything inside has been looted.”
“Useless!”
Before the cult member could finish, Kasper, beyond furious, struck his palm on the man’s forehead.
The unlucky guy didn’t even have time to utter a sound before he was killed on the spot.
“Damn them, I will find you!”
Kasper’s furious roar echoed far into the night.
While Kasper raged impotently, Su Nan had quietly returned to his room in the tavern.
Simultaneously, Hidden Dragon returned to the vicinity of the tavern, finding a place to hide.
After checking to ensure no one had entered the room since he left, Su Nan sat down and took out all the spoils he’d obtained tonight.
Looking at the twenty-plus pieces of Divine Blood Amber on the table, Su Nan felt full of joy.
Opening the cube, he began putting the Divine Blood Amber pieces inside one by one, staring intently at the synthesis interface information.
After placing six pieces in a row, the synthesis interface finally showed a noticeable change.
[Divine Blood Amber, contains 0.4ml of divine blood, greatly increasing energy particle attraction when carried, with low mental contamination, long-term close contact can alter thought and cognition, leading to belief in the source of the divine blood.]
Compared to before, the Divine Blood Amber’s attraction to energy particles now included a “greatly” qualifier, and mental pollution showed obvious weakening.
Overjoyed, Su Nan immediately put all the remaining Divine Blood Amber into the cube, and the synthesis interface changed significantly once more.
[Divine Blood Amber, contains 1.3ml of divine blood, can attract free energy particles upon contact with air, forming a high concentration energy area, causing slight auditory and visual hallucinations when in the area, immunity with mental strength above 18.]
“Success!”
Su Nan felt ecstatic.
The mental pollution side effect of the synthesized Divine Blood Amber had completely disappeared, leaving only a slight auditory and visual hallucination side effect.
Su Nan guessed it was the prayers he’d heard before, and the grand hall he’d seen.
But as long as there was no mental pollution, slight auditory and visual hallucinations were entirely acceptable.
Besides, once his mental strength reached above 18, even this slight side effect could be immune.
Compared to the initial Divine Blood Amber, the final synthesized product was definitely much better.
Without hesitation, Su Nan decisively chose synthesis.
The moment he took out the synthesized Divine Blood Amber from the cube, he clearly felt free energy particles in the surrounding air quickly gathering, forming a dense energy particle zone with the Divine Blood Amber at the center, with a radius of about two meters.
Bathed in the densely packed energy particles, Su Nan felt mentally clearer and more active than ever.
Even without actively absorbing them, many energy particles already seeped into his body and deep into his sea of consciousness, enhancing his body while filling the star ring.
“Meditating in such conditions, the efficiency is at least double or triple the previous rate, if not more!”
A strong delight surged through Su Nan’s chest.
The effect of the synthesized product exceeded his expectations by far!
With the Divine Blood Amber, his time to advance to a Level Three Wizard Apprentice could be cut in half at least!
Just obtaining the Divine Blood Amber alone made this trip to Stone Bell City worthwhile!
“Meow, what’s going on? Why are the energy particles all flocking to you?”
Amy quickly noticed the anomaly around Su Nan, jumping up from the table in surprise, staring blankly at the Divine Blood Amber in his hand.
“That Divine Blood Amber is strange…it seems different now?”
“I made a little modification to it.”
Involving his own secrets, Su Nan did not explain too much, mumbling a vague response before putting away the Divine Blood Amber and shifting his gaze to the items on the table.
The things Amy’s mysterious master left were mostly books or magical items.
He had already skimmed through the books, but due to the previous rush, he hadn’t had the chance to thoroughly examine the magical items. Now that he had time, he picked them up one by one to examine them carefully.
