Conquering The Game's World

Chapter 242: Grieving Heart!

Bonnie and Sufi observed Luis’ actions while eliminating the Veno Bats. They were surprised when they saw him take out a... shovel? from his mana bracelet. However, they were only surprised just for a moment and stopped caring. They were more curious about why he started digging in that spot.

Under their curious gazes, Luis dug out a dark red bead. He didn’t pick it up. Instead, he crouched down and started observing it up close.

"What is that?! It looks so ominous!"

Bonnie got goosebumps just from a single glance.

"Is that a medium object?"

Sufi muttered, somewhat unsure of her words.

*Thwack*

After smashing the fallen Veno Bat into a pulp, Bonnie asked.

"Do you know what that is, Sufi?"

Sufi nodded in affirmation.

"I have joined the Magic Formation class as my choice, so I have some basic understanding of formations."

"Really?" Bonnie’s eyes twinkled. "Then do you know how to break this formation?"

Sufi gave her a speechless look.

"If I knew, I would be in Luis’ place instead of fighting monsters with you."

"Tsk~"

Clicked her tongue in disappointment, Bonnie asked in a low voice.

"So, what is the ’medium’ you are talking about?"

*Fire Ball~*

Sufi’s brows twitched when she heard Bonnie’s dissatisfied voice. However, she still explained patiently.

"Well, the professor explained in the class that although there are several types of formation in the world. To activate any formation, there are only two ways. First, when the formation master himself activates the formation, by the use of mana or other energies. Second, in the absence of a formation master, a ’medium’ is used to activate the formation."

After a pause, she continued.

He also heard the conversation between Bonnie and Sufi, but there was no surprise. He already knew that Sufi had joined the Magic Formation class and had come into contact with some superficial knowledge.

To add to her words, the formation master can not only use various energies to keep the formation active. But also use his blood, or the contracted spirits, as the medium for activating killing formations, which raises the difficulty of escaping to a higher level.

In the current situation, Luis can be certain that this red bead is the real ’medium’ and not a cover-up. So, there’s one less thing to worry about.

{Lily, did you scan the properties of this bead? Is there any information about it?}

{Master, according to the information in the database. This ’bead’ should be called ’Grieving Heart’. The refinement process used the hearts of 108 different animals that had endured prolonged torture and died filled with resentment for humans.}

When Lily said this, Luis could feel the anger and hint of compassion in her tone.

’Does she sympathise with those animals?’ With a faint smile, Luis thought inwardly.

{I see, no wonder it contains such a large amount of ghost energy. It’s a cursed object and also an artificially created one.}

In addition to artificial means, a cursed object may also come out naturally over time by being nourished in places highly concentrated with ghost energy. So, the effect is obviously better.

It’s just that for formation masters, the naturally formed one may not be very useful. As it may not fulfill the specific conditions required by the formation, and is rare and expensive.

{All those animals’ resentment was converted into ghost energy... Is it that clan?}

Thoughtful, Luis guessed in his mind.

’I should have a good talk with Michael later...’

***

*Crack*

*Sizzle~*

With the use of runes, the mana circuit was soon broken. However, it was not enough to deactivate the formation, and he could feel the temperature increase every second now.

Since the magic circuit was gone, the red bead was out of control, and a large amount of ghost energy started overflowing from the bead, hastening the formation’s killing effect.

Now, even if the bead is taken away, the formation won’t stop unless someone knows how to deal with the Ghost Energy.

Normally, a vast majority of people are helpless in this situation. Those who understand Ghost Energy are necromancers, dark magicians, undead, their enemies, and other similar groups. For others, it is difficult to come into contact with such information.

However, because of some sheer coincidence, Luis has a way.

He pretended to use the mana bracelet and took out the ghost fire torch from his pocket space. Also, the Akasha’s necklace he was wearing.

’It’s over.’
