Chapter 224 Opening

Although Levent is not an alchemist, she's still aware of many alchemy ingredients, especially those that are expensive and rare to find.

Barbarian King's eyes may be an item that the Barbarians themselves would just ignore but not for the alchemists.

They would do their best to preserve this organ and keep it as their precious ingredient. Obviously, because of its size, it can't be used for an eye transplant.

'So he has really prepared it all, huh…' Levent muttered as she excitedly waited for Vincent's real method to open the capsule.

The eyeball right now will not be used to open the capsule itself.

However, a Barbarian King's eyeball can be used for an Ephemeral Mana Art or a single-use magic tool.

With the help of specific materials and some alchemy products, it can be used for three things.

One of them is to sense the existence of barbarians in a certain range which is normally within 10 kilometers.

The other one is to release a Kingly Rage Mana Art that can be used to trigger an effect similar to what a Berserk Potion can do but in this case, it could actually last for almost an entire day. There will be a backlash to the user after the effect wears off but it is still very enticing since it could increase your strength by more than 30 percent.

Lastly, this thing can also be used to break illusions, view a specific aura, or find the weakness of an object or a living.

If she wasn't mistaken, Vincent is planning to use this last option to get a sense of whatever is inside this thing.

"Isn't that expensive? Are you sure that we have to use it like this?" She asked.

It is not that she did not think of this method. It's just that this eyeball is very difficult to find since many Alchemists are looking for this item to create a tool that can trigger the Kingly Rage. Such a tool can probably be worth over 10 times the value of the eyeball itself.

A treasure that could save one's life by increasing your strength is extremely expensive after all.

"It's fine, Professor. I will start now."

Vincent said as he took out one of the eyeballs within the glass jar after wearing gloves.

Because of the modifications made to it, this particular eyeball has now turned red…

He then dropped it on top of the capsule and waited for a few seconds…

Splat…

The eyeball melted as the capsule was covered by red sticky slime.

It looks gross but this is the effect that Vincent was looking for.

In truth, this is actually Severin's creation, and based on what he said, the color of the sticky goo would turn white if it found a living being within the vessel… This is similar to his appraisal result but after ascending and enhancing it to +9, it became even more impressive…

"W-what's this?" Professor Levent couldn't believe what she was seeing.

As soon as the crimson eyeball turned liquid and covered the capsule, it actually dissipated like it was absorbed by the metal.

After that, she saw a figure made of red light inside the capsule!

This figure was unmoving in a fetal position…

This lasted for only three seconds but she was sure that there is a living being inside!

"What happened, Vincent? What is that figure inside?" She had never seen anything like this before. She couldn't even think of any Mana Art close to this… There are several detection tools that she had used before but giving an effect that shows a glowing figure is completely new to her.

"Ahhh… There was a bit of modification from the normal Detection Eyeball that was made. Anyway, we at least confirmed that the figure inside has a human figure." Vincent said as he didn't really want to explain a bit too much about this magic tool.

"T-that's awesome… It's incredible! I never knew that such a method exists!" Levent said with excitement as she looked at Vincent in a different light.

'This young man is really filled with mystery! No wonder Turhan did not hesitate to use the recommendation to him…'

Levent thought as she begins to imagine the strength that Vincent would display a couple of days later.

She did not believe that this young man is only a resourceful person. He has too many things he's hiding and his real combat strength must be one of them.

"Right? In any case, we're now sure that there's no beast inside… As long as it's a humanoid figure, it should be someone we can communicate with… I hope this being will be reasonable."

Vincent muttered the last part as he was silently wishing that the one inside wouldn't just randomly try to kill them.

"Alright… I'll leave it to you—Hmm?" Levent was about to back away when she noticed that Detection Eyeball started reforming from its liquid state.

"Ahhh. It has three uses… So I can still use it a couple more times…" Vincent explained as he grabbed the large eyeball back to the glass jar filled with slime.

Levent could only sigh in admiration. It means that the Detection Eyeball that is supposed to be an Ephemeral Mana Art or single-use has been greatly modified. Whoever or whatever did this is probably one of Vincent's greatest secrets.

Vincent then pulled out his Astral Night Dagger…

As per Tara's words, using a Celestial Weapon would certainly catch the attention of the being inside since all the Cryogenic Sleep Chamber has a function to notify their user once they were got in contact with such a weapon.

Professor Levent did not know this and she's also unaware that Vincent is holding a Celestial Weapon right now.

It doesn't seem different from other Magic Weapons after all.

"Clang!"

Vincent struck the metallic green capsule and created an echoing noise within the cavern.

He repeated this a couple of times before he finally saw a reaction…

Professor Levent noticed that the object started vibrating… She wasn't sure how striking this capsule with a dagger would get this reaction but she had no time to think about it.

She immediately held the Formation Core in her hands ready to activate its restraining state.

Clank… Clank… Clank…

With her bated breath, Levent heard the mechanical gears of the capsule start functioning…

Her eyes lit up in excitement...

It's finally here!
