201: Chapter 201 Making Chaos Crystals
At this moment, Nie Ning was sweating profusely from the pain, and his severed left arm was still bleeding.
Nie Ning used his battle qi to seal the wound, but his gaze remained fixed on the crystal stone on the table.
A small black dot appeared in the center of the grayish-brown crystal stone, and immediately after, the Elemental Power in the room began to fluctuate, forming an elemental tornado that converged toward the crystal stone.
Although Heloise had previously acted indifferent, seeing such a scene, she was deeply attracted.
After all, this was something even a Tier 3 Wizard would want; it possessed indescribable reference value, and perhaps she could include this experiment when she wrote her book in the future.
Under the influence of the elemental tornado, all the equipment in the laboratory began to shake violently.
"Put the equipment away first!"
Seeing that the situation was not right, Nie Ning immediately called out to Heloise to collect the equipment.
Many of the pieces of equipment here were homemade by Nie Ning based on memories from his past life, and he did not want them all destroyed because of a single experiment.
As time passed, the suction force of the crystal stone grew stronger and stronger, and the condensed Elemental Power even formed ribbons resembling rainbows.
"I think we should leave."
Heloise said with a calm expression.
Hearing this, Nie Ning unleashed a Wind-Thunder Blade to break through the ceiling, grabbed Heloise's shoulder, and escaped from the basement.
"Did something happen?"
Just as Nie Ning came out, Isaac saw Nie Ning's severed arm and stepped forward to ask with an anxious look on his face.
Above the manor, a larger elemental tornado had already formed, and what was even more troublesome was that there was an Elemental Pool right below the laboratory!
"You all go disperse the crowd; I will use a formation to shield this place!"
Nie Ning did not explain, but said in a deep, solemn voice.
Isaac did not dare to say anything more upon hearing this and hurriedly gathered people to bring everyone in the manor out.
Nie Ning himself took out a formation disk and set it up around the manor to avoid an explosion that would affect the people outside.
With a Wizard's speed, the dozens of people in the manor were quickly cleared out.
At this moment, the elemental tornado whipped up a huge storm, causing the plants in the entire forest to be blown about.
Heloise, with a calm expression, took a shadow recording stone out of her ring and recorded this scene.
Seeing that there was no one inside, Nie Ning activated the formation disk, and several beams of light shot up into the sky, forming a fiery red barrier that enveloped the entire manor.
Nie Ning's expression was somber; he hadn't expected that just creating a single chaos crystal would cause such a huge commotion.
But at least he had the process now, and regardless of whether it succeeded or not, it was a huge step forward.
Suddenly, the elemental tornado paused, and the entire manor building was completely destroyed by the shock.
A flash of brilliance shot through it, blinding everyone.
Immediately after, Nie Ning felt an elemental vacuum zone appear around him.
When Nie Ning opened his eyes, the manor had turned into ruins, and a huge deep pit was left on the ground.
Signaling the curious Isaac to stay behind, Nie Ning flew into the deep pit with Heloise.
At the bottom of the deep pit, on a flat piece of ground, a black crystal stone floated quietly in the center.
Nie Ning reached out and summoned the crystal stone into his hand; the surface of the black crystal stone shimmered with a colorful luster, looking somewhat indescribably strange.
"Did this succeed?"
Nie Ning stared blankly at the crystal stone in his hand, unable to believe that he had truly succeeded in creating it.
Heloise examined the crystal stone, took out a notebook, and began to doodle and draw, recording the entire appearance of the crystal stone.
Sensing that someone was coming, Nie Ning put the crystal stone into his spatial ring.
Looking up, Augustine's figure appeared in the sky above.
"What is going on with you two?"
Augustine observed the surrounding ruins and asked with a frown.
"Just a small experiment, nothing to worry about."
Nie Ning smiled and flew out of the deep pit with Heloise.
Hearing this, Augustine glanced at Nie Ning's missing left arm.
Just now, he had sensed an unusual elemental fluctuation; that level of elemental concentration did not seem like something a small experiment could produce.
However, since Nie Ning did not want to say more, Augustine did not find it appropriate to ask further.
"When conducting experiments, you must ensure proper protection. Violent elemental fluctuations will affect the capital's formations; do not be so reckless in the future."
Augustine shook his head slightly and said earnestly.
"I'll definitely be careful next time, definitely next time."
Nie Ning smiled and responded repeatedly.
After all, this was someone else's territory; regardless of whether he could actually do it, his attitude had to be clear.
Seeing this, Augustine said nothing more and turned to fly in the direction he came from.
As Augustine left, Nie Ning turned to look at Isaac: "Do you know where there is a volcano?"
Because he did not understand the properties of the chaos crystal, he didn't know if he had succeeded. The only plan now was to go and refine a god-forbidden ring to know if it was useful.
And refining a god-forbidden ring required drawing earth fire for calcination and refining, so he had to find a volcano.
"How could there be a volcano here in the capital? If you want to find a volcano, you have to go to the Northern Earth Hills; there is an active volcano there."
Isaac thought for a moment and said.
Hearing this, Nie Ning began to ponder the location of the Earth Hills in his mind.
If he remembered correctly, it seemed to be a barren land, and in such a vast place, only one city stood there.
It would take about two weeks to travel from the capital to the Earth Hills.
Of course, flying was faster; it would take about a week to get there.
"Since that's the case, it's not convenient for me to stay any longer. I will take Heloise with me when I leave. If you have anything, you can come to Ska City to find me in the future."
Nie Ning was afraid that Isaac would ask him to compensate for the manor, so he prepared to run away immediately.
"Are you in such a rush? Why not just stay in the capital? It would be more convenient for whatever you do."
Isaac was a bit surprised to hear this, and then hurriedly said.
"Do you remember what I said? Every Wizard needs to go to places outside the capital to garrison. I don't like joking with others, and I believe Wizard Augustine thinks the same way."
Nie Ning said with a cold expression.
He knew what Isaac meant; didn't he just want to use him to build momentum?
But since the matter had been settled, and he had the corresponding strength, everyone had to abide by this treaty.
Every year, so many people die in every city, yet these people keep garrisoning the capital, only caring about their own interests.
Those who are capable should do more. He did not object to others using this to seek benefits for themselves, but they had to fulfill their corresponding duties as well.
Besides, he had already given these people a chance.
These people from the families could take turns sending people, so it wouldn't affect the family forces here in the capital.
Looking at the Crimson Holy Blade, perhaps they were here for training, but they actually sent people to deal with problems, instead of staying holed up in this little plot of land.
Isaac knew that this matter was settled and did not continue to say anything more, only agreeing repeatedly.
At least the goal had been achieved; even if they had to go out to garrison, with the relationship with Nie Ning and Heloise, other families would not dare to take the opportunity to do anything outrageous to them.
