Chapter 366: Treasury

Chapter 369: Treasury

After the door opened, the scene that appeared in front of them immediately stunned Heath and the others. Even Heath could not help but take a deep breath.

“Wa wa wa!”

“My… God!”

Everyone’s eyes widened as they stared blankly ahead.

In front of them was a very spacious hall that was the size of a football field. The entire hall was now filled with all kinds of treasures.

The Magic Stones piled up as high as a hill and the piles of materials completely dazzled everyone’s eyes.

“Hahaha, we’re rich, we’re rich, we’re rich!”

“Treasures, they’re all treasures, they’re all treasures!”

Jackman, who was slightly lacking in mental fortitude, and Alza, who desperately needed resources, were the first to be unable to suppress their emotions. They rushed into the pile of resources like crazy, like commoners who had entered a mountain of gold, digging up the Magic Stones and throwing them into the sky. Then, they threw away the various materials, and the excitement was written all over their faces.

Heath was also very happy, but he did not lose his composure like the two of them. After all, he had explored many ruins over the years, and he had obtained countless treasures from them. He had seen many more than this big scene.

He just strolled over as if he was strolling in the garden. While admiring the various resources around him and searching for the materials he needed, he counted the rough harvest of this trip.

After walking for a while, his gaze was attracted by something on his right.

It was a blue gemstone. It was round like a pearl and looked like a water bead. In the middle of the water bead was a red mosquito that was wrapped magically. It looked exceptionally strange.

‘Blue Water Agate? And a Bloodthirsty Mosquito was sealed?’

Heath picked up the pillar and observed it for a while. His eyes lit up.

The blue crystal-like part of the pearl’s shell was a substance called Blue Water Agate. It was a product formed by the combination of resin and elements. The little bug inside was a magical creature called a Bloodthirsty Mosquito.

The Bloodthirsty Mosquito was a very low-level demonized creature. The Blue Water Agate was not a particularly outstanding substance. However, this Blue Water Agate still caught Heath’s attention. The main reason was that the Bloodthirsty Mosquito was a demonized creature from the ancient times, and it had already disappeared in this era.

‘Ah, I really didn’t expect to see a complete Bloodthirsty Mosquito here. I wonder if I can still extract the substance from it?’

Heath was skeptical, so he gave it a try. ‘Extract.’

In fact, this was purely a casual experiment. After all, he had used the system for so long, and he knew that the system’s extraction of the substance was determined by the time the substance died. The longer the time it died, the lower the probability of extracting the substance. After a certain period of time, it was basically impossible to extract the matter, especially this Bloodthirsty Mosquito before him. That matter was already ten thousand years old, so it was impossible to extract the harvest.

However, the reality of the situation made Heath’s jaws drop. (Beep, extraction successful. Obtained Life Sequence (Bloodthirsty Mosquito).]

(Beep, extraction successful. Obtained Talent (Bloodthirsty).)

(Beep, extraction successful. Obtained…]

A series of crisp notifications rang in his ears. It was no different from the usual sound when he was extracting matter.

Hearing this sound, Heath could not help but gape.

‘What’s going on?’

Up until now, the system had always followed the law of time of death. After a creature died, the amount of matter extracted should decrease with the passage of time. After a certain amount of time, it should not be able to extract anything.

However, this Bloodthirsty Mosquito was obviously a creature from ten thousand years ago. Theoretically, it should not be able to extract anything. Why would there be a reaction?

“Could it be that this Bloodthirsty Mosquito died not long ago?’

‘No, that’s impossible.’

As soon as this thought popped up, Heath shook his head decisively and denied this guess. After all, this Bloodthirsty Mosquito had been dead for an unknown period of time. It was a creature that was extinct in this era.

Since there was no problem with the Bloodthirsty Mosquito, then could the problem be…

Blue Water Agate?

Heath stared at the blue shell and suddenly had some clues.

The Blue Water Agate that enveloped the Bloodthirsty Mosquito was actually formed from the resin that flowed down from a tree species from ancient times. Heath thought for a moment and realized that this tree species should be called ‘Blue Time’.

This Blue Time was not a particularly high-level magic plant, but this plant had a special characteristic —

Anti-corrosion.

It contained a certain law of time that could slow down the flow of time, or even stop time. Of course, this effect could only be produced under certain circumstances.

It was likely that this Bloodthirsty Mosquito was enveloped by Blue Time and coincidentally triggered the Blue Time’s time freeze function, causing the Bloodthirsty Mosquito’s time to remain in the ancient times, and it was also because of this that Heath was able to extract material from it.

‘So… this Bloodthirsty Mosquito should still be intact?’

Thinking Curiously, Heath released his spiritual power and spread it into the amber to carefully observe it. The result was indeed not out of his expectations.

This Bloodthirsty Mosquito was indeed intact. Its physical body cells were still active!

This discovery could not help but make Heath’s eyes light up.

Demonized creatures from the ancient times had always had high research value, especially for body cells like the Bloodthirsty Mosquito that was still active. The research value was even more difficult to estimate.

‘Aha! I didn’t expect to find an active Bloodthirsty Mosquito! That’s great!’

Because he had once extracted a large amount of knowledge about insects in the Magic Bug Forest, Heath was even more fond of these insects. If he had them in his hands, there would be a lot of experiments that he could do.

“This expedition is really too suitable!’

Thinking happily, Heath continued to stroll around the hall to see if he could find some other interesting things, such as other Blue Water Agate.

Unfortunately, there were no more Blue Water Agates after that. That was also about right. Blue Water Agate was not a common substance to begin with. This Blue Water Agate was most likely produced by chance. It was not easy to find the same thing again.

However, although there was no Blue Water Agate, the other gains were not to be underestimated. Magic Stones, materials, Wizard tools, and all kinds of magic scrolls. What made Heath even more excited was that in a corner of the hall, he also found —

A study room!

This independent study room was filled with volumes of ancient books. On them were records of magic knowledge from the ancient times.

For Wizards, aside from the training of their own strength, the most important thing was the accumulation of internal knowledge. Over the years, Heath had been able to smoothly break through on the path of advancement. A large part of it was because his own knowledge had always been at the forefront.

If there was no knowledge or insufficient knowledge accumulation, then it was very likely that he would encounter obstacles or even fail to advance. Alza in front of him was a living example.

The reason why Alza’s life force had been drained so much, even though he was a Wizard of the same generation as Jackman, was largely because he had failed to advance, and the reason why he failed to advance was also because of the lack of accumulated knowledge.

The accumulation of knowledge was not easy. He had to look for both learning knowledge and knowledge at the same time. In fact, the amount of knowledge that Heath had learned over the years was already quite a lot. All the knowledge that he could come into contact with had been extracted by him. Now, there was only a bit of knowledge that could be extracted to advance, and because of this, his knowledge had basically not improved much during this period of time.

However, the books in the study were all from ancient times. He had never come into contact with these books before, and he had never obtained any of this knowledge. Extracting any of these books was an absolute increase in his knowledge.

It was indeed the case.

After entering the study, Heath immediately picked up a book and extracted it. ‘Extract.’

[Beep, extraction successful. Obtained Knowledge (Detailed Explanation of the Law of Love).]

A piece of information that he had never come into contact with before quickly entered Heath’s mind, and he immediately felt that his knowledge had increased a lot.

‘Haha, that’s great. With these books, my knowledge will definitely be able to advance to another level!

Currently, Heath’s knowledge was just about the same as his strength. He was at the intermediate rank of the Wizards. This level was not too low, but it was definitely not high.

Generally speaking, the knowledge of a Wizard was one level lower than the strength of the Wizard. This was because Wizards usually focused their energy on training their strength. Compared to the increase in knowledge, knowledge was usually ranked second.

In other words, the knowledge level of an official beginner-rank Wizard was only at the advanced Apprentice level most of the time, while an intermediate-rank Wizard’s knowledge level was only at the beginner rank most of the time.

A Wizard like Heath who could maintain his knowledge level and strength level was definitely a minority. Most of them were talented geniuses who could do it, while Heath relied on the system to achieve this achievement.

However, this did not mean that his knowledge was broad. On the contrary, after advancing to an intermediate Wizard, the requirements for knowledge became even more stringent.

Below an intermediate Wizard, even if one’s knowledge was one or two levels lower, it would not have much of an effect on advancing. However, above an intermediate Wizard, the knowledge and strength were completely reversed. Only when one’s knowledge reached the advanced Wizard level… Only then would a Wizard be able to advance to the advanced rank.

Previously, Heath was still considering where to go to find new knowledge to expand his knowledge. He didn’t expect to have so many unexpected gains here. Immediately, he began to swim around in the library, taking out books one by one.

At once, the system’s notification sound rang incessantly in his ears.

(Beep, extraction successful. Obtained Knowledge [6th Elemental Rune Arrangement ).]

(Beep, extraction successful. Obtained Knowledge (Berta Rune Detailed Explanation].]

(Beep, extraction successful. Obtained Knowledge…]

As pieces of information poured into Heath’s mind, Heath’s knowledge continued to improve.

After extracting for a while, Jackman and Alza finally found this study. The two who walked into the study were instantly attracted by the dense books in the study.

Jackman said in surprise, “Wow, so many books, huh? Are these ancient Wizard books?” Jackman picked up a book and flipped through it. He was quickly surprised by the knowledge recorded on it. These were very ancient Wizard knowledge, which he had never come into contact with before.

Looking at Heath who was flipping through the books, he could not help but ask, “Heath, can you understand these too?”

Heath, who was still in the midst of extracting knowledge, said without turning his head, “I basically don’t understand them. I’m just flipping through them.”

Jackman heaved a sigh of relief. “I say…”

These were all ancient Wizard knowledge. Only those ancient Wizard families still had the corresponding inheritance. Most of the knowledge recorded on them had already been lost. If Heath could understand it… Then this was not something that could be explained by the word ‘genius’…

Jackman picked up the book and casually flipped through it. “These are all old antiques. If I sell them, I think I can definitely sell them for a good price. Later, we’ll split these piles of books…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Heath decisively refused, “No.”

He said without a doubt, “Knowledge is a precious treasure. I want this pile of books alone. If you want to sell them, you can copy a copy, but I have to keep this pile.”

Heath’s attitude and way of doing things were obviously a little overbearing. After all, they came together. These books belonged to the three of them in theory, but now he proposed to monopolize them alone. This was really overbearing

However, Jackman did not have any intention of objecting. He only asked for Alza’s opinion symbolically. “Alza, what do you think?”

Alza did not object. Instead, he smiled and nodded. “I have no objections.”

On the way, they had only taken on the role of escorts. The rest, including searching for the ruins, entering the ruins, and clearing the levels, were all completed by Heath. Without Heath, they would not have been able to stand here, not to mention that Heath was an intermediate-level Wizard that was one level higher than them.

Not to mention Heath, even if he wanted to obtain the materials outside, as long as Alza had enough resources to advance, Alza would definitely not object.

In the hall earlier, Alza had indeed found the resources he needed to advance. Of course, he would not come here to compete with Heath.

Alza said, “I think Wizard Heath is right. Knowledge is the most precious treasure. We should keep these things for ourselves. I think we should just leave it to Heath…”
