He busied himself till eight o’clock in the evening.

Noland Lee wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, took a brief rest, and extended his left arm towards the stereo array on the desk.

The overall appearance of the “Blood Storage Alchemy Array” resembled the open mouth of a monster.

Its upper and lower rows of “teeth” were made up of Prairie Stone Crab’s pincers. The crimson “tongue” was fresh beef soaked in Plateau Lizard’s blood.

All these items were carved with alchemy runes.

If Noland Lee puts his left arm into the “monster’s mouth” and onto the soft “tongue”, then injects soul energy, he can activate the array.

He took a deep breath and used Deconstruction to examine the integrity of the array.

After confirming that the array could perform normally, he mobilized Soul Energy from his left arm to the start runes on the “tongue”.

A burst of crimson light lit up from the start runes and began to spread throughout the array like a flowing stream.

Inside the Alchemy Room, a red light produced a spectacle, and the air seemed to be filled with droplets of blood.

[System Message: ]

[You have consumed 10 soul strength to activate the “Blood Storage Alchemy Array”.]

[Under the action of the array, 10 points of soul strength have been converted into 1000 points of active energy.]

[Array activation is successful.]

[A fragmented but harmless Blood Haven is forming in your body.] [This process will take about half a minute.]

“Tick, tock…” the wall clock’s second hand moved precisely.

Noland Lee sweated profusely, feeling like a large hand was randomly Imeading his insides, tearing his blood vessels and bones apart.

This tumultuous torment lasted exactly 30 seconds.

As the time arrived, the glow on the array quickly faded away.

The alchemical materials auicklv turned to sand.

They lost all essence, turned into countless grains of sand like shattered clay sculptures, and fell from the tabletop.

Amid the rustling sound of falling sand, Noland Lee gasped for air and looked at his left hand.

On the back of his left hand, a crimson array pattern appeared, which was the anchor point of the Blood Haven.

As long as this array pattern is intact, he can use the Blood Haven in his body normally.

[System Message: ]

[You have successfully opened a “Blood Haven”, with a space size of 0.5 cubic meters.]

[You have unlocked a new skill:]

[Living Alchemy, Level 1, a knowledge skill.]

[The level of the Living Alchemy products you produce will not exceed this skill level.]

[Knowledge skills can gain experience by acquiring knowledge and hands-on practice.]

Noland Lee lifted his right hand, placed it on the back of his left hand, and closed his eyes.

A crimson ocean appeared before his eyes, where blood water was churning all around, and a small piece of land was in the center of the scene.

This piece of land located in the blood sea was his Blood Haven.

Noland Lee grabbed the Rune Staff from the table, experimented for a while, and quickly figured out how to store and retrieve./p>

He just needed to hold the item he wanted to store, bring it close to the back of his left hand, and silently say “store” to consume Energy Points and put the item into the Blood Haven.

The operation was nearly the same for retrieving the item.

Put his right hand on the back of his left hand, mentally lock onto the item in the Blood Haven, and then he could take it freely.

Storing items costs energy points, but retrieving items is free, which seemed quite cost-effective.

Noland Lee stored the life elixir he carried in the Blood Haven.

He picked up a stone brick from the table, aimed at the sand and gravel on the ground, and activated the runes.

A whirlwind engulfed the sand and gravel, lifting them off the ground and pouring them into the folding space inside the stone brick.

With the help of alchemy, tedious work that used to take a lot of time, like manually sweeping the ground, was completed with ease.

One must admit that the effect of these “Rubble Collection Runes” was much better than a vacuum cleaner.

Noland Lee tidied up the Alchemy Room, put on his backpack, and left.

“It’s probably 8 PM now. After I get back, I will practice the “Soul Casting Technique” in the dormitory. If there are no tasks tomorrow, I will go ask Iron Thorn Shield to buy a batch of military supplies to store in the Blood Haven. Things like Fragmentation Hand Grenades, Full Power Pistol Bullets, I will take several boxes of each. I refuse to believe that, with so much ammunition at my disposal, I will still run short of bullets…”

Noland Lee was in a good mood; he walked toward the Iron Thorn Shield building while planning for the Blood Haven.

“Hm, you are finally here.”

At the entrance of “Money and Good Dreams,” a sweet voice attracted Noland Lee from his thoughts.

When he looked up, the beautiful supervisor of “Money and Good Dreams,”

Cindy, was standing at the door in her figure-hugging velvet long skirt, putting away on a cigarette.

The alternating changing light sent out by the neon tube of the entrance penetrated the fluttering smoke and landed on her skin and gem pendant, as if illuminating a charming and spirited sculpture.

“Good evening, Cindy.”

Noland Lee nodded at her, his handsome face obscured by sunglasses and face towel, and he stopped to chat with her:

“How is Kent doing? He’s okay, right?”

“He’s made of sturdy stuff, there’s nothing to worry about.”

Cindy crossed her arms, propping up her breasts, leaned against the door frame, and took a leisurely puff from the thin smoke between her fingers, she released a fragrant cloud as she spoke:

“Come with me, Noland, let’s go inside to talk. A young girl asked me to give you a letter.”

Cindy led Noland into the building and into the visitor’s room next to the Grand Hall.

She gave a gentle wave on her pendant and drew a shining sphere that transformed into an invitation:

“Here it is. It’s an invitation from the Cat Society of the Life Essence Society, inviting you to their manor. Hmm- are you planning to jump ship? I knew this small place couldn’t keep someone important like you….”
