章節 77: Experimentation
Looking at the small metal cube in front of her, Beatrice slightly frowned as she felt its smooth shape, not leaving her any way to open it up.
After a few moments, Beatrice slowly took in a deep breath, deciding what to do.
"I still have two more of these to experiment on, it doesn't matter if this one is broken," mumbled Beatrice as a dark bolt suddenly appeared in her hand.
Compared with her usual dark bolt, this one was much thinner, not focusing as much on pure destructive power, but rather focusing on sharpness.
After making sure that the metal cube was latched onto the metal table below, the dark bolt, which right now looked like a needle, struck, piercing a centimeter inside of the metal cube.
At this moment, Beatrice clenched her teeth as a painful expression appeared on her face, after all stopping the dark bolt right in its tracks, so that it would not fully go through the metal cube proved harder than she had anticipated.
A moment later, a sonic boom suddenly happened right in front of Beatrice, causing her enhanced ears to slightly ring.
Even so, Beatrice completely ignored this, focusing on the scene in front of her.
"Hopefully it still works and nothing broke," mumbled Beatrice as she dispelled the dark bolt staring at the metal cube in front of her, which now had a small hole inside of it, allowing her to see inside.
Through this small hole, Beatrice was able to make out some components inside of the cube, some smaller metal cubes alongside some other circles.
A moment later, Beatrice poured her mana into the metal cube, causing familiar text to suddenly appear above it.
As this text appeared above the cube, Beatrice suddenly turned her attention to the small hole in the cube, which had now lit up from the light emanating from the inside of the cube.
At this time, Beatrice was clearly able to see the insides of the cube.
One tiny cube sat alone in a corner completely separate from the other contraptions on the inside of the cube.
One extremely thin black tube seemed to be connected to the walls of the cube, stretching to a smaller cube placed in a corner.
From this cube emerged two different extremely thin tubes, filled with a clear liquid.
One of the tubes went to a relatively large cube, which occupied almost half of the insides of this metal cube, while the other tube went to a small sphere, which was floating near the middle of the cube.
While the large cubes did not have any special features, the small sphere was completely different, being filled with a large amount of tiny text, which was glowing at the moment.
Although Beatrice was at first attracted by the sphere, she suddenly turned her attention to something else.
A tiny transparent tube stretched out from the lonely cube in the corner and into the walls of the cube.
"That must be the actual method to access the insides of the cube," mumbled Beatrice as she retracted her mana, causing the tiny tubes to suddenly become empty, as the final bits of black liquid flew through them.
A moment later, the text present on the small sphere stopped glowing, as the text floating above the cube stopped glowing as well.
After a few moments, Beatrice slowly fell into thought.
'That ancient warlock apprentice was clearly able to access the insides of the cube, what could he have had that I don't,' thought Beatrice as she once again looked at the insides of the cube.
Of course, Beatrice knew that such a question was definitely futile, after all that apprentice probably had something like an access code.
...
Seven days later,
For the past seven days, Beatrice had been experimenting on the small cube when she had time, as for the rest of her time, she spent it practicing spells and looking after her ants.
Of course, Beatrice also refined mana, that didn't have to be said.
Sadly, Beatrice did not find any success in experimenting with he cube.
At this moment, Beatrice was staring at the small cube in front of her, no longer hesitating about what she had to do.
After a few moments, Beatrice began taking apart the metal cube bit by bit, making sure to not damage it's components.
Bit by bit, using her dark bolt, Beatrice cut off more and more metal, placing the metal shards she obtained to the side, making sure to not lose count of any of them.
As such, in under thirty minutes, Beatrice finally took out a part of the inner components of the cube.
Looking at the tiny cube, which probably was the real way to open this cube, Beatrice couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief before placing it to the side as well.
And then, twenty-seven minutes later, Beatrice took out the other part of the cube, the two metal cubes as well as the sphere.
Beatrice made sure to keep the tiny tubes keeping these things together intact as she took them out.
...
Looking at the Prophet, who was bathing in a golden light, Archmage Withered Soul couldn't help but show some displeasure on his face.
"I'm going to go for a walk, I'm coming back when this is done," said the Archmage as he looked towards Archmage Arif.
A moment later, before Archmage Arif could respond, Withered Soul suddenly disappeared.
Hearing the words of Archmage Withered Soul, Saint Orianna, who was healing the prophet at this moment, couldn't help but slightly snort.
"Saintess, you don't have to anger yourself, you know that Withered Soul doesn't have anything against you," said Archmage Arif.
"I know that very well, don't worry, I know that old fart better than you," said Orianna, who usually was extremely calm and collected.
Hearing Orianna's words, Archmage Arif couldn't help but take in a deep breath.
"Old man, I don't know how you can manage those two," mumbled Archmage Dragonheart as he looked at the old Archmage.
