Witcher: I Can Extract Everything Novel - Chapter 100
Chapter 100: Black
“Even the soul energy of a half-life can be extracted?”
Heath was very surprised. After all, this was a substance that had never been extracted before.
“So it seems that when I’m learning some spells, my goldfinger will also change according to the situation of the spell?”
“There has never been a similar situation before. Is it because the previous spells were all Apprentice-level spells? Or is it because the spell this time involves the soul, which is why there is such a change?”
After thinking for a while, Heath could not come up with any clues. He could only put it aside for the time being and test it with experiments later.
Immediately, a look of joy appeared on Heath’s face.
This was good news.
The most difficult part of the Half-Life Soul spell was undoubtedly the cultivation of soul energy.
If it was done according to conventional thinking, it could only be a little bit of self-cultivation and cultivation. The energy, time, and materials required to do so were extremely huge.
And now that he could directly extract the soul energy, the progress of cultivating the Half-Life Soul body would be greatly accelerated.
“One soul energy… How much has it increased…”
Heath closed his eyes to feel it.
In his sea of consciousness, there were a few small light blue dots floating on the side of his sea of consciousness like grains of sand.
These grains of sand were the Half-Life Soul that Heath had nurtured.
“1… 3… 7… 13, there are 13 grains! Isn’t that too fast!”
After counting the amount of sand in detail, Heath was extremely happy.
One had to know that he had just nurtured only one Half-Life Soul. He had nurtured it for a few days, but it had only grown to five grains. In this short instant, he had added seven grains, which was much faster than his self-cultivation.
Heath was happy in his heart. He quickly walked to the second corpse and continued to extract.
Unexpectedly, the extraction this time shocked Heath once again.
[Beep, extraction successful. Spiritual Power +0.05]
[Beep, extraction successful. Obtained Spell Knowledge [Life Structure].]
[Beep, extraction successful. Half-Life Soul Energy +36]
Heath widened his eyes.
“36! Am I seeing things? 36?!”
He had only extracted one point of soul energy, but now it had increased by 36 points. Wasn’t this too exaggerated?
“Is there something special about this Apprentice?”
Heath carefully looked at the corpse on the ground, but he did not see anything special.
Even from the remaining elemental reactions, this Apprentice’s strength was far inferior to the Apprentice he extracted previously.
What was going on?
With doubts in his heart, he immediately extracted the remaining few corpses. The three corpses were extracted with 7, 26, and 38 soul energy respectively.
After comparing the few corpses, Heath quickly got the answer.
“I see. It seems that it’s because of the integrity of the bodies.”
He carefully observed the bodies and found that the more broken the bodies were, the less soul energy was extracted. For example, the previous one had its internal organs hollowed out, and the 7 point one had half of its body smashed into pieces.
The higher the amount, the more intact the bodies were.
“The soul of a broken body always dissipates faster. This is understandable…”
According to the book, the body had a locking effect on the soul. After death, the soul would begin to dissipate. The more powerful the body was, the faster the soul would dissipate.
‘I just don’t know what is the connection between this extraction system and the soul?’ Heath thought curiously as he touched his chin.
In fact, he had realized a long time ago that the extraction system’s extraction of matter was closely related to the integrity of matter. It was just that the reflection on the soul energy was particularly obvious.
After thinking for a while, Heath still had no idea. He still put it aside and slowly dug it out in the future.
Then, he closed his eyes again to observe.
At this moment, the Half-Life Soul body had already undergone significant changes. The light spots there had grown to hundreds of them. They were densely packed together like a cluster of burning flames.
If it was normal cultivation, it would be impossible for a Half-Life Soul body of this scale to achieve it without several months of bitter cultivation.
“Haha, if there were more such corpses, then my Half-Life Soul body…”
Just as he thought of this, his laughter stopped abruptly.
He looked at the flame in his sea of consciousness, then opened his eyes to look at the incomplete corpses on the ground and the devastation around him. He couldn’t help but have a complicated expression.
To be honest, although he had participated in a lot of killings since he came to this world, and even personally participated in two wars, he actually preferred peace based on his own worldview.
His goldfinger was already big enough. It was not difficult for him to make a name for himself by following the steps. There was no need to pray for a group of corpses to fulfill his personal desires.
Unfortunately, the pace of the times was not something that a mere Apprentice like him could control. Since he had caught up, there was nothing he could do for a long time.
“If the heavens do not give it to me, I will be blamed instead. There is no need to think so much. Since I have met with it, I will accept it calmly. Under the premise of protecting myself, I will try my best to improve myself…”
As he silently decided in his heart, Heath set off on his journey once again.
…
A few hours after Heath left, a few Apprentices suddenly came to this empty space.
These were a few different Apprentices.
They were all wearing pure black cloaks, but there wasn’t a single trace of the emblem of the Wizard organization on their cloaks. They couldn’t identify their origins.
They were two men and a woman. Their appearances were extremely terrifying, and their appearances had already completely left the scope of normal Wizards.
One of them was a bald head. That bald head would jump and bulge out from time to time, as if something was going to come out from within his brain. His upper and lower lips had already completely festered. His uneven yellow teeth and scarlet gums were exposed.
The other was a short and fat man. His extremely large stomach was like a sarcoma.
The last woman was the most normal-looking one. She even had an exquisite appearance. However, there were two mouths on her palms. There was a dark green airflow around her body, making her look extremely strange.
Their eyes were shining with a neurotic light.
When they came to the open space, the fat man’s gaze immediately locked onto the corpses on the ground. His eyes became greedy and excited.
“Haha! Snacks! Wonderful snacks!”
He ran to a corpse and lifted his cloak. Under the cloak, there was a huge mouth on his stomach.
That mouth extended its long scarlet tongue towards the corpse and directly sucked the corpse into its mouth. With a few ‘ka ka’ sounds, it ate the corpse.
He said happily, “Labyrinth smell!”
Then, he picked up another corpse and ate it. “Red Castle smell.”
“Crescent smell.”
