Chapter 8

"I really don't know what they used, but they recovered so quickly."

Jiang Heng sighed inwardly as he looked at the wild wolf carcasses the guys had brought back, along with other prey. Although there were more wolves here, their food supply basically didn't include wolves.

For this situation, Jiang Heng could only apologize; after all, the taste of this thing wasn't that great.

After the meal, Jiang Heng went to a special area in the camp that he had set aside for himself and began his research. He still dissected the wild wolves, but he didn't need to delve as deeply into the areas he had already studied.

This was because it was Jiang Heng's first time studying the structure of a living organism, so it was quite troublesome. Once he had accumulated knowledge, it would be much easier to study other organisms in the future.

Moreover, the things Jiang Heng had learned since childhood gave him a different understanding compared to the people in this world.

So, from his own perspective, Jiang Heng's understanding of the wild wolf's structure was also very fast. In some aspects, he might even be clearer than some specialists who studied the structure of beasts.

For the next period of time, there were basically no troubles, at least not for Jiang Heng.

Jiang Heng studied the structure of the wild wolves every day, while the others continuously searched for the location of the Ashen Valley.

However, as everyone became more familiar with Jiang Heng's experiments, the world crystals they received each time gradually decreased. Jiang Heng himself couldn't do anything about it; after all, everything had an adaptation period.

It seemed that to get more world crystals, they would need to do something big.

Unfortunately, he was currently unable to do so.

"Why haven't you found it yet? Did you come here without determining the location or drawing a map?"

Hearing Jiang Heng's words, Zhang Yi rolled his eyes: "How could we know so clearly? The closer to the center of the Black Dragon Empire, the fewer intelligent beings there are. Who would bother to draw a map? We only heard some rumors."

"But such a large valley, you can't possibly miss it, right? Haven't you determined a specific area?"

Zhang Yi was about to speak when Liu Wen held him back: "We can determine it, it's in this area. I feel it will be just a matter of days."

Liu Wen lowered his voice: "Don't be so blunt. If you make them dislike us, future missions will be difficult. Haven't you seen how much our world crystals have increased in the past few days? Think about the future."

Zhang Yi's fiery temper finally subsided. After all, they came to this world for professions and crystals.

With strength, they would have a better foundation when they returned. As for these natives, who would recognize them then? With enough strength, they could do as they pleased when they returned next time.

Jiang Heng shook his head, not caring. He understood the personalities of these transmigrants well. Each of them was high and mighty, looking down on any native from the bottom of their hearts, but they still had to cater to the natives.

Because whatever they wanted, they needed to influence the natives and obtain it from them.

Those who acted recklessly often didn't end well. This was the conclusion Jiang Heng had drawn from their private conversations. They never concealed their discussions when they turned off the translation.

Others couldn't understand, but Jiang Heng was different; it was his native language.

After resting for a while, he returned to his experimental table. During this time, Jiang Heng had personally dissected over a hundred wild wolves. The most troublesome part was the brain, which took up almost half of his time.

"Today should be enough." Jiang Heng carefully extended his hand, with magic flickering. He was using magic to slowly peel away the brain, studying it bit by bit.

Without a microscope or other experimental equipment, Jiang Heng didn't dare to dissect it directly with a knife. He had to use his magic to sense it bit by bit; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to do it.

Before long, a wild wolf's brain was disassembled in Jiang Heng's hands.

"Just one more left. Once it's completed, the world crystals consumed will be less, and the power should also be maximized." Jiang Heng thought to himself.

Then, Jiang Heng began to dissect the last wild wolf brain.

As the last brain was slowly dissected, Jiang Heng smiled contentedly; his diagram was finally complete.

Wasting no time, Jiang Heng took out the wolf king's fur he had prepared long ago. These magical beast skins were good materials for making diagrams. The wolf king's blood was made into a special potion, which was part of the basic knowledge.

Without this basic knowledge, Jiang Heng wouldn't have been able to construct the skill.

Dipping the ink, Jiang Heng used his magic to construct the diagram on the paper. The complex diagram was quickly completed with his smooth hands, creating a diagram that would dazzle anyone who looked at it.

"What is he doing? Why is he starting to draw a diagram?"

"Shut up, he's constructing a spell diagram. We are fortunate to witness the birth of a new spell."

"Isn't it just a spell that mages use? How do you know it's new?"

Justin rolled his eyes: "Haven't you noticed these past few days? This person is an Arcane Constructor. All the spells of an Arcane Constructor are perfectly suited to themselves, and each spell is new. In contrast, the spells used by other mages are derived from the spells left by Arcane Constructors."

"Arcane Constructors are rare. I thought they were extinct, as this profession is too difficult. But the spell diagrams they left behind are very precious, some can even open a new path for mages."

Liu Wen and the others' eyes lit up as they listened. A new path for mages, what did that mean?

It meant a huge fortune. If they became mages, it would be the foundation of their journey forward. Even if they could obtain this spell diagram, the cost of this trip would be worth it.

At this moment, Jiang Heng wasn't paying attention to what was happening behind him. He was focused on constructing the new spell diagram.

Finally, the complete skull of the wolf king was placed in a special position.

"Ten world crystals, much less than I imagined. Let's start."

Jiang Heng took a deep breath and released his magic. At the same time, ten world crystals disappeared. A mysterious force surged, and the two skulls gradually melted, merging into the diagram.

Then, the diagram detached from the paper, floating in the air, while the paper burned and instantly turned to ashes.
