493: Chapter 493 Holy Rune Armor

After slacking off for a while, Nie Ning saw Garcia take his men and leave the area.

Although he didn't know where they were going, judging by the current situation, it was likely to make contact with the local inhabitants.

He just didn't know if it would be good or bad; if they could take over this world without starting a war, then the subsequent exploration would be much safer.

...

When Nie Ning found Lovsky, he discovered that the Long-armed Human had also been locked inside the laboratory they had built.

"This guy has a strong will to resist. I estimate that the upcoming negotiations won't go very smoothly, so you should prepare yourself mentally."

Lovsky looked at the Long-armed Human roaring and screeching inside the light barrier, patted Nie Ning on the shoulder earnestly, and said.

To completely conquer a world, even if one could avoid clashing with the local inhabitants, battles with the top powerhouses of this world were almost unavoidable.

"Um, can I get some blood samples?"

Nie Ning didn't care much about the war here, because that wasn't his purpose for coming here in the first place.

Upon hearing this, Lovsky's face turned serious.

"This is something Lord Wizard Lapu specifically ordered must be guarded well."

Hearing this, a flash of disappointment crossed Nie Ning's eyes.

'It looks like I'll have to wait to study it.'

Lovsky suddenly smiled: "As long as we don't say anything, no one will investigate."

Wizards always lacked resistance when it came to alien creatures, and in fact, Nie Ning wasn't the only one who had come to ask for blood samples.

But there was only so much blood from one Long-armed Human, so naturally, it was impossible to supply everyone, which is why he had already turned away several groups of people in just these past one or two hours.

However, there were exceptions to everything; as long as one didn't cause trouble, those High-level Wizards would basically turn a blind eye.

"Then thank you very much."

A look of joy appeared on Nie Ning's face.

If he could get the genetic samples sooner, he would be able to integrate into this world faster by relying on Supernatural Adaptability.

"We're friends, aren't we? Don't forget to give me a free meal next time I go to your restaurant."

Lovsky laughed and joked.

"Definitely, definitely."

Subsequently, with Lovsky's help, Nie Ning obtained two tubes of blood samples from the Long-armed Human.

After all, it was a species from a new world, so necessary experiments had to be conducted; cautious wizards would try their best to avoid falling into danger.

After obtaining the samples, Nie Ning returned to the room he had prepared in advance, took out his laboratory equipment, and began conducting the corresponding experiments.

However, halfway through, Nie Ning returned to the logistics department and requested some Belvis creatures he had prepared to bring for experiments.

There was no other way; now that the spatial passage was closed, it was too late to go back and find more.

After spending some contribution points, Nie Ning successfully obtained the things he needed.

Afterwards, apart from the daily maintenance work of the camp, Nie Ning stayed in the laboratory almost the entire time doing research.

...

One week later.

Laboratory.

Nie Ning squatted in front of a small light barrier, inside which a creature with white fur all over its body but blue patterns was crouching.

After some research, Nie Ning discovered that the creatures in this world were indeed very different from Belvis creatures.

The creatures here would concentrate their own power into a special kind of pattern.

By simply activating those patterns, the power of the local creatures would increase significantly, and their physical and elemental resistance would both be enhanced.

Like that Long-armed Human of about the first rank, the patterns on its body would also grant the user elemental attacks.

For example, coating the body with flames, firing relatively simple yet exceptionally concentrated energy orbs, and so on.

The rabbit in front of him was a Belvis creature, but after some genetic modification, blue patterns slowly appeared on its body.

This represented that this rabbit had already gained water-element affinity.

Nie Ning looked at the rabbit inside the light barrier, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

"It seems the value of this world is even higher than I imagined."

As Nie Ning stretched out his palm, a similarly blue pattern appeared.

Holy Pattern Armament, the name that suddenly appeared on the panel.

In reality, in terms of strength, it could only be considered average, nowhere near the Wizard World that had experienced tens of thousands of years of accumulation; a standard first-rank Wind Blade could break through their defenses.

And that was where the issue lay; Holy Pattern Armament didn't just increase a bit of inherent combat power, it was a special Runic Formula that, once activated, could enhance one's own spells.

Furthermore, after obtaining Holy Pattern Armament, Nie Ning could clearly feel that his elemental affinity had increased.

This wasn't increasing his base affinity, but rather amplifying the elemental affinity he already possessed.

However, the intensity of this amplification wasn't high; the only advantage was that it could stack!

Yes, stack!

Holy Pattern Armament was a product of self-evolution, which would undergo a certain abnormal evolution based on one's own attributes, and could be seen as a unique talent of the local creatures.

Nie Ning wasn't quite sure of the principle, because this mutation involved the soul and was one of the products bestowed by self-evolution.

Each attribute had different special Runic Formulas, and high-level Runic Formulas were different from low-level ones.

Furthermore, these Runic Formulas could be stacked, and after stacking, they would form new Runic Formulas.

And the outrageous part lay right here: every time an attribute was stacked, it could increase one's strength by ten percent, which meant the more attributes one had, the more powerful one became.

However, it was very strange that among his experimental subjects, no dual-attribute Holy Patterns had been born.

Even with this Water Moon Rabbit in front of him, which was clearly a water and dark attribute creature, only a water-attribute Holy Pattern had been born.

Nie Ning felt it might be related to Supernatural Adaptability, or perhaps it was for other reasons.

It was a pity that the Long-armed Human from last time had already been taken away by the High-level Wizards of the Yin-Yang Sect.

There had been no news for three days; it was likely that things looked grim for it.

Because for them, the invaders, understanding the local creatures was critical, which naturally included physical structure, as well as certain weakness experiments and other projects.

And a week had passed, but there was still no news from Garcia's side.

Nie Ning observed that the High-level Wizards at the base still maintained their original daily routines, so presumably, nothing major had happened; otherwise, these people would likely have already activated the portal to run away.

...

Nie Ning looked at the Water Moon Rabbit inside the light barrier, and suddenly, dark red flames erupted and burned it to ashes.

"I hope they discover the secret of the Holy Pattern Armament a little later..."

In his view, the value of the Holy Pattern Armament was very high, and not just limited to the boost the Holy Pattern provided to one's own strength.

It was mainly that this kind of naturally derived rune was something they had never seen before!

This was the truly high-value part.

Naturally derived and unprecedented; just these two aspects alone made the trip worthwhile. For wizards, this place was a huge treasure trove.
