Walking out of the back door of Ferguson's apartment, Connor saw that he was out of the range of the sensors in the trash can on the street. With a wave of his hand, the small stone that he had placed in the corner of the street to interfere with the sensors immediately flew back into his hand. After putting the small stone back into the space ring, Connor glanced at the trash can on the street with some regret. He then pressed down on the brim of his hat and turned to leave.
If he was in his prime and not injured, Connor might choose to fight with the wizards of the Selta Sect. But now that he was injured, if he chose to fight them head-on, no matter if he won or lost, he would suffer more injuries and affect the recovery of his mana backlash. Therefore, he had to avoid them for now and make further plans!
Arriving at the safe house on Ramsey Street in the Northern District, Connor first followed the treatment method that Varga had left for him and soaked in the medicinal bath. At the beginning, Connor was in the prime time to recover from his mana backlash, so Varga had given him a heavy dose of medicine. That was why Connor, who thought he was strong enough, was in so much pain that he temporarily lost his ability to move.
But now was different. Now was the time to slowly recover, so Varga reduced the dosage of some herbs on the basis of the previous medicinal bath. He also changed several main and auxiliary herbs, making the medicinal bath suitable for Connor's recovery. Although the current medicinal bath would still bring some pain to Connor, the pain was completely within the range that Connor could endure.
Although the current medicinal bath wasn't as effective as the first medicinal bath, Connor could still feel that with the help of the medicinal bath, although the recovery of his injuries from the backlash of the spiritual power was slow, it was indeed in the process of recovery. According to this progress, Connor would be able to fight in a month at most, half a month at most.
However, although he could fight with others, it would still be quite troublesome if he was injured in the fight or consumed too much of his spiritual power in the fight. There was a big possibility that it would cause the injury to relapse. If possible, it was best not to fight with others for half a year. In this way, Connor's injury from the backlash of his spiritual power would be completely healed in half a year at the latest. At the same time, there wouldn't be any sequelae!
After soaking in the medicinal bath, Connor applied some ointment to his skin to prevent the medicinal bath from stimulating the body. He officially began his purpose of coming to the safe house this time — opening the cube crystal.
In the basement, although he was very satisfied with the concealment effect of the safe house basement, Connor still set up a formation on the floor tiles of the basement just in case. In addition to the most important effect of shielding energy fluctuations, Connor added some runes to the formation to gather energy in case of emergencies.
After setting up the formation, Connor wiped the fine beads of sweat on his forehead, then took out hundreds of Magic Stones from the space ring and filled them into the formation. After doing all this, the preparations to open the cube crystal were complete.
After sitting cross-legged on the ground and meditating for a while, Connor adjusted his state and replenished the mana consumed by setting up the formation. Then, with a shocked expression, he carefully placed the cube crystal in the formation he had set up.
Taking a deep breath, Connor struck a spell at the formation. The formation immediately formed a mini semicircle, enveloping Connor and the cube crystal.
Feeling the power of the formation he had set up after it was activated, Connor nodded with satisfaction. He was much more confident about successfully opening this cube crystal.
Connor narrowed his eyes. With a thought, he stretched out his hand and a mini steel hammer and six small steel balls with a diameter of one centimeter appeared in his hand. He placed the small steel balls in the center of the cube crystal. Connor's eyes lit up and he struck a spell at the mini steel hammer in his hand. The mini steel hammer immediately began to expand three to four times, becoming a normal-sized steel hammer with various patterns engraved on it.
Holding the steel hammer, Connor fiercely smashed it at the steel balls placed on the cube crystal. The steel hammer, the steel balls, and the cube crystal collided and suddenly erupted with a deafening roar.
"Boom!"
Although the sound of the collision was heard, the steel balls were still not smashed into the cube crystal. However, Connor did not seem to be surprised by this. He continued to hold the steel hammer and smashed at the steel balls and the cube crystal. After more than ten hammers, the steel balls were barely smashed into the surface of the cube crystal. However, no matter how hard Connor smashed the steel balls into the surface of the cube crystal, they could not go any deeper. It was as if there was a strong and invisible resistance inside the cube crystal, preventing the steel balls from entering.
A bitter smile appeared on Connor's face as he wiped the sweat off his face. The current situation was exactly the same as what he encountered in the simulation of the auxiliary A.I. Chip. His plan to use this steel hammer to smash open the cube crystal had been foiled. It seemed that he could not use any tricks to open the cube crystal. He could only use the method calculated by the auxiliary A.I. Chip!
After a short rest, Connor smashed the remaining five steel balls into the remaining five surfaces of the cube crystal. After doing this, Connor struck a spell at the steel hammer again. The steel hammer immediately shrunk to its original size and was placed back into the interspatial ring by Connor.
After inspecting the cuboid crystal that had a small steel ball smashed into each of its six surfaces and confirming that there was no problem, Connor revealed a ruthless expression. He carefully made a cut on his wrist and fresh blood immediately flowed out from the wound. In order to prevent his blood from being wasted, Connor hurriedly dripped his blood onto the steel balls on each of the six surfaces of the cuboid crystal.
As his blood landed on the steel ball, a miraculous change began. The steel ball, which had remained indestructible even after taking a dozen blows from Connor's steel hammer, unexpectedly melted. At the same time, Connor's blood sprayed out like a spray, dyeing the six sides of the crystal cube an eerie red. The crystal cube, which had been pure and white just a moment ago, now appeared to be filled with an indescribable evilness and strangeness.
Seeing this, Connor relaxed and let out a long sigh. He then secretly circulated his Fa Li to stop the bleeding. He then applied the hemostatic ointment that he had prepared in his interspatial ring onto the wound on his wrist. After applying it externally and applying it internally, the wound quickly healed and immediately formed a scab.
