Chapter 1411 Is this an endless cage?
Ang tilted his head; everyone already knew his body language well. Negris asked directly, "You also think this is a good idea? Will it work?"
Ang thought for a moment, then shook his head: "No, it won't be long, I'll adapt."
“You mean it will adapt quickly and this corrosive stuff won’t work on it?” Negris translated.
Ang nodded.
“Then we’ll have to use non-plant-based ones,” Negris said regretfully.
"No, no, no, I'll use it, I'll use it!" Duroken immediately raised his hand excitedly, feeling even more fortunate that he had come along this time, otherwise this highly corrosive substance might have been sealed away.
"You use it? What use is it to you?" Negris asked, puzzled.
"Strong acids and strong bases, what's the point of asking me? Do you even consider yourself the god of knowledge? I can't talk to you anymore," Duroken said angrily.
However, he could avoid talking to Negris, but he couldn't avoid talking to Ang and the King. He then explained, "In alchemy, strong acids and bases are the most basic materials. Some materials cannot be used by ordinary methods, but they can be used when combined with strong acids and bases."
"For example, with enchanting, if I apply a potion to a smooth surface, it won't adhere and will become ineffective once it's washed away with water. But if I first coat it with a strong acid to etch the surface, the surface will become very rough, and the potion's adhesion will be enhanced."
"Take ceramic coating for example. We already have the method of explosive ceramic coating, but explosive ceramic coating cannot be used on fragile materials. The problem is that the more fragile the material, the more protection it needs. If there were something that could dissolve the black crystal and then coat or adsorb it onto the surface of the fragile object, wouldn't we be able to obtain the wear resistance of the black crystal?"
After Duroken's long, technical description, everyone was completely bewildered. Negris asked directly, "Just tell me what this thing can do."
Duroken shrugged: "I don't know, I'll have to study it to find out. But this patch is too small, sir. Remember to let me know when you grow a new one."
Ang nodded, then took out a large mass of chaotic mist and chaotic droplets, cut it in half, and handed it to the king.
The king waved his hand: "Keep it. The Chaos Mist is more useful to you. You threw it and I caught it outside. We've already caught quite a few. You don't need to give me these."
Negris felt a pang of jealousy. All that talk about "being more useful to you" and "having already received quite a few" was just an excuse. He just wanted to give the good stuff to Ang. That old bastard had never been so generous before.
Ang didn't think that much about it. If the king said no, then no. He could just ask him again if he wanted to.
"There's quite a bit of Chaos Mist, isn't there? You've really struck it rich this time," Negris said, looking at the spoils Ang had pulled out.
Although the Fog Whale and the Ghost Tree didn't kill a single one, they still reaped a lot of spoils. First, there was the Gate of Boundless, then a bunch of chaotic mist and droplets, and a large number of black crystal skeletons, plus the seeds and branches of the Lantern Tree. They made a huge profit, while the Fog Whale and the Ghost Tree suffered heavy losses.
Ang nodded, then took out a large pile of black crystal skulls. After carefully piecing them together, he was able to assemble more than 10,000 complete skulls, with another 7,000 or 8,000 fragments remaining.
Ang put the seven or eight thousand fragmented bodies back into the spacetime domain, spun them vigorously, and they were all restored to their original state.
"This works? You can turn all these broken pieces around?" Negris asked incredulously, his eyes wide.
Reversing the spacetime realm has its limitations. The more you change, the more you consume. With so many bones, how can Ang withstand the enormous consumption required to reverse them back to their complete state?
Ang explained: "Concretion is fragile and requires little energy."
"Because it was materialized and only recently shattered, it consumed less energy, right?" Negris translated.
Ang nodded.
Negris asked, puzzled, "Why do you emphasize what is materialized? Wouldn't it consume more energy if it weren't materialized?"
Ang nodded: "It's not materialistic, it has traces of time, and reversing them is difficult."
“Traces of time?” Negris was bewildered; the description was too elegant and difficult to understand. “You mean that bones that are too old are difficult to reverse, while these bones are newly manifested, so it’s effortless, right?”
Ang thought for a moment and nodded reluctantly.
Looking at the more than 17,000 black crystal skeletons, Ang turned to the king: "Your Majesty, do you want them?"
"No, no, what would I do with this? It can't keep up with me," the king quickly refused.
The king was used to going it alone and didn't even bring Locke with him. Moreover, he discovered that speed was very important in the void.
At first, he couldn't catch up with King Felix, and eventually it got away. Now he can't catch up with Ang either. Forget about Star Shift and Soul Shift, even with Flash, Ang's flash distance is several times that of him, making it very difficult to catch up.
Because of this, when facing the Fog Whale and the Ghost Tree, he and Ang did not cooperate much and almost each fought their own battles.
He's currently doing everything he can to increase his movement speed, so why would he need a bunch of black crystal skeletons that would slow him down?
Ang had no choice but to put the black crystal skeleton into the spacetime domain, and then looked at Anthony.
Anthony quickly took out the barrier sphere and said, "Sir, I have found out that this is a spatial gate that can connect to the center of the boundless void, but it requires a lot of energy to activate. The energy comes from its guardian beast, the Mist Whale."
Ang nodded.
The king asked, "Connecting to the boundless void? Does that mean we can use it to return to the original location of the chaotic plane?"
"Probably, that's what it said anyway, and it doesn't seem like it's lying. We don't have the energy, so we haven't activated it and can't verify it," Anthony said.
The king said, "There's no need to verify it. The Chaos Dimension is gone; there's no going back. But if this thing is just a spatial portal, does it really need something like the Mist Whale to guard it?"
“It didn’t say it was a portal; it said it was a key, the only key to escape the boundless cage. It also possesses ultimate alchemy, capable of completely transforming matter, just like the chaotic mist,” Anthony said.
"That's it? You don't have any other abilities? Can't you just swat someone in and banish them to the boundless void?" the king asked, clearly having the same idea as Anthony.
If it could banish others to the vast void, its value would be immense; then King Phile could be filmed inside.
“I’d like to know too, but it hasn’t been verified yet. Should we waste time verifying it using the Chaos Mist?” Anthony asked.
Without saying a word, Ang took out all the Chaos Mist he had stolen from the Fog Whale. This action clearly showed his attitude: test.
However, just as Anthony was about to add energy to the Gate of Boundless Space, Ang thought of a question: "Is this place... an endless cage?"
