This statement of the system made Benjamin feel very fresh.
Can it even feel fear? Does the word "fear" really exist in the system's dictionary
However, this body of the system... should refer to the weird stuff exploded from the elemental plane. Although it ended up being a bunch of burlesque, depending on the source, it should also have a lot of history.
Thinking this, Benjamin looked at the small bottle in his hand and couldn't help but show a solemn expression.
It can make things from the elemental plane feel fear. This bottle of sticky liquid may not be a simple thing. The secrets of the world of the undead may really be hidden here.
"What did you study from these **?" Benjamin asked again.
"How could you ever think of me as a god?" The old man shook his head and said, "What we know so far is that this thing is extremely corrosive. It is best not to let it come into contact with the skin. Its destructive power is no less than The gastric juices of highly poisonous acid ants.”
Benjamin nodded.
Of course he wouldn't be stupid enough to drip it on himself.
"Do you have any animal carcasses that were used in experiments before? Get one over quickly. The more complete the better." After thinking about it, he ordered, "Let's try to see if this thing can really make the dead come back to life." .”
When the mage next to him heard this, he naturally had no objection and turned around to make preparations.
The old man looked disapprovingly.
"What? Isn't this a bad way?" Benjamin asked.
"...It's nothing, you can verify it if you want, although I think there is no possibility of success." The old man said casually, "Although I have never cracked the mystery of life and death, but it must be very complicated to make a pile of dead things move. The elemental structure. But in this bottle of **, all the ingredients are scattered, and there is no structural ingredient at all."
“…”
Benjamin didn’t quite understand those professional discussions. So he didn't pay much attention, just shrugged and said, "It doesn't hurt to try."
However, the final result was exactly as the old man said. The mage found a pig's corpse, and Benjamin poured a drop of the refined black-purple ** on the corpse. In the end, with a sizzling sound, the body did not stand up, but instead was corroded by flesh and made a big hole.
The old man snorted, with an "I told you so" expression on his face.
Benjamin couldn't help but frown.
Since this is the gunpowder extracted from the remains of the undead, it should have some special powers that only belong to the undead. It shouldn't just be like a pool of strong acid, with no other use than corrosion.
"Give it back to me." The old man said, "It's hard to filter out such a small residue. I still need to study it. Don't waste it on meaningless experiments."
"All right… "
Benjamin handed the small bottle to the old man. He couldn't research anything from here now. He could only count on the remaining researchers here to see if they could find something different.
However, the system's initial evaluation still made him a little concerned.
Is it instinctive fear...
Isn't this usually used to describe one's natural enemies? The body of the system comes from the elemental plane, so what will be its natural enemy? Will the undead become the natural enemy of the elements
There were so many questions in his mind that he couldn't even think through them. But when he turned around and asked the system again, the system couldn't tell him the reason. It would just talk about intuition and the like, and push him back impatiently.
In the end, Benjamin left the laboratory.
Let the professionals do the research, so he better not bother. My task at this moment is to control the information well and not let the news of the world of the undead spread.
With the further development of the academy's dark department, inspections in this area have become stricter, and there should be no chance of escaping secrets like last time.
However, before leaving the laboratory, the old man still said something to him.
"Although I found some remnants from the remains of the undead, if you want to really study something, you'd better catch us a few more living undead quickly."
Benjamin didn't refuse.
Exploring the world of the dead for the first time was originally a rather hasty move. When he left, he had made plans to go again, and not only himself, but also some people who were good at light and dark magic, as well as those who knew telekinesis.
Calculating the time, there is only more than a month left before the final exam. After the holidays, with more free time, they can officially start exploring the world of the dead.
Although Benjamin was very curious, he was not in a hurry, so he could only patiently return to his room and rest for a few days.
Three days later.
"I have already made the equipment for trapping ghosts." Morris came to the door with a sack in his hand and said, "Soundproof wooden stakes, beads that aggregate dark elements and repel light elements, and are extremely powerful for spiritual power. A glass cover with a strong blocking effect... Just in case, I also prepared other things, which are all in here."
Benjamin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
So fast
It seems that not only him, but also other mages in the academy are very interested in the issue of undead. Morris's ability to push the wheelchair here by himself is enough to prove this point.
"Okay then." Benjamin also took out the parasitized bird and said, "After delaying it for so long, the magic can no longer sustain its life. The ghost has left this body."
He and Morris came to the building now designated for the study of the undead and came to the most secretive laboratory. Under Morris's prompting, Benjamin arranged the magic props one by one.
Finally, a huge glass cover was placed in the center of the laboratory. There are four wooden stakes intersecting the four corners of the cover, forming a soundproof barrier. A pitch-black bead was placed in the center of the cover. Along with waves of magic power, the light elements were blown away, and the dark elements quietly gathered in it.
"The speed of the elements gathering is relatively slow. There is no way. This is the limit that can be achieved at the current level." Morris shook his head and said, "We'd better find a few dark magicians to come over and let them cast spells to speed up the process. .”
Benjamin nodded in agreement.
The intensity of the dark elements at the bottom of the abyss is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. But judging by the speed of this ball now, it might take ten days and a half to just rely on it to create an environment.
Benjamin found a few credible dark magicians, and Morris also took out a few spare beads and placed them in various locations in the laboratory. In the end, with the efforts of all parties, some dark elemental phenomena like shadows finally emerged from the glass cover.
"Although it's not as good as the bottom of the abyss, but... the ghost should be able to live in it." After the system test, this evaluation was given.
Benjamin also took a deep breath, held the bird up in the steam, and put it into the glass cover.
