Soul of Burning Steel

The grudge transformed from the life by the special breathing method is not like the psionic energy or magic power transformed by the mage through spiritual power, which has complex and changeable characteristics. It is a pure energy. If it is not as high as silver Level, there is no way to release it out of the body and affect the real world. However, it has a very strong ability to strengthen life itself, and can strengthen the owner's various abilities in an all-round way, including but not limited to muscles, tendons, and five senses.

But the natural energy in the crystal of steel is different.

Elements, magic power, all the energies that exist in nature, they will naturally react with other material energies. Where the fire element is rich, flame crystals will form, where water elements are dense, deep-sea orbs will condense, and where elements are poor, Even legendary magic equipment will gradually self-destruct due to the natural dissipation of energy.

"According to my calculations, with the dissipation speed of this steel crystal, it will dissipate into nothing within two hours, but it shows no signs of shrinking at all."

There was a golden light in Moria's eyes, and the luster and lines like magma flowed on his hands. The old dwarf said seriously: "I haven't felt any strange energy in it yet, but there is A feeling related to chaos... this alone is worth paying attention to."

If so, things get a little more interesting.

Joshua stood aside, watching Moria use various methods to detect this black-red crystal, he touched his chin and thought: "Nostradamus, Claire and I, plus With this old dwarf, the four of them used different means to reach four conclusions that were similar but not...Damn it, where did Firefly find this thing?"

But no matter what, the four of them came to the same conclusion in one aspect—there was no doubt that this crystal of steel came from a world that was infested by chaos and was on the verge of doomsday.

"Time and space gate."

This word suddenly popped up in Joshua's mind, and he thought thoughtfully: "This crystal should have flowed from the time-space gate that was destroyed by me. At that time, I was too tired and rested in place for a long time. It should be the crystal of steel picked up at this time."

As for why he picked it up unsuspectingly... Even if he couldn't tell what the crystal was from the beginning, how could Yingying know? The girl probably thought it was just a beautiful stone.

"It's impossible to figure out its internal structure by naked eye inspection alone." Putting the steel crystal back into the box, the old dwarf narrowed his eyes, and the wrinkles on his face became a little heavier: "It seems that I have to use some heavy methods Don't you mind, Joshua?"

"I don't mind." Joshua had nothing to do with this thing. His knowledge of ancient times and strange objects was not enough to identify the source of the steel crystal. Since the old dwarf had a way, he would simply let him.

No one knew what the dwarf's heavy method was, but they all had a rough guess, so when Moria took out a large magic resonance detector commonly found in alchemy workshops, no one said surprise.

When he heavily placed this huge three-meter-high machine with a translucent energy lead dragging behind it, the entire forging room trembled. Moria moved his arm, and then moved the steel crystal from the Taking it out of the box, he said: "I have specially increased the power of this machine, and it is connected to the black steel furnace core in the core forging area. Theoretically speaking, under full output, any substance will be completely analyzed."

"Of course, everyone be careful." The old dwarf reminded: "I ordered this instrument from the group of goblins in the west. Although it has been used for two years without any problems, there is no guarantee that it will not explode."

Goblin product?

Hearing these words, all the people present cheered up instantly and raised their vigilance. They watched Moria put the crystal of steel into the instrument, and then pressed the start button, and subconsciously finished it. Defensive readiness.

The alchemy and engineering skills of goblins are indeed world-class, but their restless hearts are filled with countless inspirations and ideas, and they have no way to calm down and perfect a product to the point of perfection, and the consequence is that their products Most of them have their own self-destruct function.

"Buzz."

Joshua could sense that a huge wave of pure energy turned into the tiniest energy wave, and kept sweeping back and forth in the instrument to thoroughly analyze the substances placed in it. Everyone stood at the observation port with serious faces Looking at the various phenomena generated inside, observing the various characteristics and information displayed by the internal steel crystals under this high-frequency energy scanning.

Minutes passed.

"It is indeed a bit abnormal. In this high-energy environment, ordinary energy aggregates, such as flame crystals, have already begun to quickly decompose and resonate, but this steel crystal does not interact with the outside world at all. It is extremely stagnant and will only release a large amount of energy unilaterally. the power of steel."

Moria frowned, and he asserted: "The power is still not enough." Then, the old dwarf moved his finger and turned up the power a lot.

"Buzz!!!"

Accompanied by the violent buzzing sound, a frightening energy that surprised even Joshua surged wildly. The flickering light on the magic resonance detector instantly turned red, and the intensity of energy fluctuations detected internally became stronger. Strong, the depth of detection has also been further improved.

No matter how inert this steel crystal is, it does not react to external energy, but under this level of stimulation, it will inevitably undergo some changes.

"Crackling."

Numerous tiny crack marks appeared on the surface of the black-red crystal. Before the old dwarf operating the console could react, the steel crystal suddenly shattered and turned into a pile of fine powder.

"What?!"

On the spot, Joshua and Moria, who knew something about the situation, exclaimed, and they shouted almost simultaneously: "Impossible!"

These two people are different from the magic boy and the elf druid. They clearly know that the resonance detector will at most gradually dissolve the pure energy condensate such as flame crystals and steel crystals, and it is absolutely impossible for them to be different from ordinary Matter is like 'collapsing'.

At this time, a spinning gray vortex appeared at the original location of the crystal. It frantically absorbed the energy fluctuations sweeping around, absorbed energy, and expanded its size. At the same time, the center of the vortex An inexplicable breath appeared, and it began to emit a misty light.

The speed of the light is unavoidable, and everyone present is enveloped by this light in an instant.

Joshua felt like he was in the main city of Moldavia when he actively contacted the strange power in the crystal and was pulled into the illusion. His eyes suddenly went dark. Although he was still conscious, he couldn't observe it. information to the outside world.

A strange force affected his brain and poured into his soul.
