BXBX NOVEL Chapter 229 Part One: Super Relic (Crystal Ball)
After searching for an hour, I didn\'t come across anything special. The bedrooms were empty including the master bedroom, there is not even a secret compartment behind it.
But I didn\'t get frustrated by the failure. I have a vague feeling in my heart that I have yet to discover the secrets. Then I thought about checking out the library room.
I\'m sure this huge mansion has a library room in it.
A few minutes later, I found the library room after coming downstairs. Fortunately, there the door was not locked.
CREAK
I pushed the door open. A huge wave of dust spreads around the area. "Where was this coming from?" The amount of dust startled me.
Seeing that, I waited for the dust to settle down. Then I walked into the huge room a few minutes later.
Countless numbers of books came into my view. They were racked in rows on multiple bookshelves. Seeing that, I stood like a statue in the same spot.
I was awed by these gigantic bookshelves. This library room is nothing less than that of those academies. In curiosity, I walked towards the nearest one.
When my fingers touched the book cover, the entire book turned into ashes the next second. Seeing that, a realization dawned upon me.
"Time is cruel," I grumbled to myself.
I guess these books are now unattainable to me. Time has left traces on them. If I touch them, they will turn into dust. Realizing that, I sighed inwardly.
Then I raised my head to glance over these bookshelves from left to right. The ordinary books were of no use to me. So I wasn\'t much affected by the result.
But what about magic books and ancient scriptures and maps? A trace of doubt appeared in my heart. The wizard Gregor, I don\'t know where he stored his magic books.
As this realisation struck me, I decided to check every book.
Time passed,
I almost forgot about the actual time. I was so immersed in finding out the secrets that I forgot about the outside world. Whenever I touched these books, they instantly turned into dust.
Without minding it, I continued to touch the remaining books one by one.
Several hours later,
The entire library room looked empty. Looking at the empty racks, I couldn\'t help but let out a deep sigh. All the books that I had touched were turned into ashes. There is nothing left now.
The library room looked empty and shallow. I calmed down my heart before looking for other areas.
But suddenly a new idea struck my mind. Earlier, I used the probe function on the mountain rock. Then it turned out to be a gateway to this mansion.
So looking at this huge library room, I thought about implementing the same idea. Who knows what is hidden behind this library room?
Then I proceed to implement the plan. I started to do it from the left side of the library room.
"System, probe the target," I said to the system.
[Ding! The host command is recognised.]
[Ding! The command is executed.]
[Result: Normal wooden wall.]
A wide status panel appeared in front of my eyes. Seeing that, I nodded in understanding. Then I began to repeat the process again and again inside the library room.
Time passed,
After checking out the entire wall, I came across nothing. Which left me dispirited, I had assumed that there will be some surprise. But sadly there is nothing.
Suddenly, my gaze fell to the ground. At the centre of the hall, there is a specific pattern drawn. For a moment, I thought it was a design.
But the more I looked at it, I felt it was something else. The design pattern looked like multiple layers of runic inscriptions. Then a sudden realisation struck my mind.
This is not an ordinary pattern. There is something beneath it. Realizing that, I decided to use the probe function.
"System, probe the target details," I said to the system.
[Ding! The host command is recognised.]
[Ding! The command is executed.]
[Result: A gateway to the secret compartment is found.]
[Ding! Follow the instructions to open the secret compartment.]
A wide status panel appeared in front of my eyes. Seeing that, my eyes widened in disbelief. "It\'s real. There is something beneath it," I grumbled.
Then I began to follow the set of instructions. I started to draw the secret mysterious pattern using my mental strength.
As I began to follow the instructions, changes begin to take place in the design pattern.
WHOOSH
One by one the design pattern line started to move. The design lines started to adjust themselves. I feel like the whole pattern comes alive.
Seeing that, I sucked a cold breath. I felt goosebumps all over my body. Finally, the design lines formed a dark colour gate.
And the gate materialized a couple of seconds later. Seeing that, I stood like a statue in the same place. After calming down my heart, I began to move.
When my fingers touched the door, I felt it was real. In curiosity, I gently pushed the door.
Creak
The door opened. The next second, I felt a wave of fresh air wash over me. Before I could realise it, I landed inside a huge bright room.
Unlike the previous room, this room has a lightning setup. My eyes widened in surprise. This secret place is neat and clean, unlike the huge mansion.
I took some time to look around the surroundings. Then my gaze fell on some odd-looking instruments. "What is it?" I grumbled. The more I looked at it, the more I\'m able to recall something
A few seconds later, a look of realization dawned upon me.
"This is a laboratory," I exclaimed in disbelief. Yeah, the more I observe this room. It feels like a laboratory. It\'s exactly opposite to the modern-day laboratory. There were no high-tech gadgets in this room.
I can only see the different types of apparatus on the table. I wonder for what purpose they are using it. In curiosity, I walked up to the table and began to look at the apparatus.
After five minutes, I retracted my thoughts. Then I began to check the room using the probe function of the system. Because I see there is no exit door.
[Result: A secret chamber is found]
[Ding! Follow the instructions to open it]
Finally, I saw the result in the status panel. Seeing that, I began to follow the instructions. This time the design pattern was so complex.
It took me some time to complete the pattern.
Creak, the door opens
"Phew," I exhaled in relief.
I thought there is no other room. Then retracting my thoughts, I walked into the room.
I saw one simple table and desk. But the next second, my eyes widened in surprise. There are two crystal balls on the table. Which immediately drew my attention.
Then my eyes gleamed with excitement. My instinct tells me that these two crystal balls were some kind of relics. So I decided to use the probe function on the crystal ball.
"System, probe the target," I said to the system.
[Ding! The hosts\' voice is recognised.]
[Ding! The command is executed.]
[Result: A super relic is found.]
[Ding! A level-up system, version. 1.1 can be installed using the super relic.]
A wide status panel appeared in front of my eyes. My gaze immediately fell on the instructions. For a moment, I stood like a statue. The shock was so great that I don\'t know what to do.
After a few minutes, I calmed down my heart.
"Great opportunity," I exclaimed in surprise. Then I extended my palm and placed it gently on top of the crystal. Then I slowly released my mental strength.
WHIZZ
My mind went blank in the next second. I felt my consciousness drifting into a large space. But I know in my heart that my gravity system is updating.
Outside,
The Crystal ball is releasing dazzling five elemental colours. Then it slowly began to be observed by the body. The system is updated by using the super relic energy.
Time passed,
One hour later, the crystal ball began to crack. A couple of seconds later, it completely turned into dust.
[Ding! The level-up system, version 1.1 is ready.]
[Ding! A new storage function is added. A host can use it to store living and non-living things.]
When the familiar sound rang in my mind, my consciousness returned to reality. Then I saw the newly updated status panel. But my gaze immediately fell on the instructions.
Seeing that, a wide smile spread on my face. The new updated version of the system is more powerful than I thought. "Storage function," I grumbled.
Then I saw, I can store all kinds of items inside the storage space of the system. Including, I can store living things.
I sucked cold breath the next moment. I will this space function to store looted items. No one will know anything. Realizing that, a quick glint flashed in their eyes.
This storage function came at the right time. Especially, at this gregor mansion. I will plunder every opportunity and store them inside the system\'s storage.
Then my gaze fell on the last crystal ball on the table.
