On the large bed, Griffin’s eyes were filled with ruthlessness and madness.

Just looking at Griffin, Chen Heng could sense that berserk and twisted feeling.

Griffin stretched out his other arm and grabbed towards Chen Heng’s chest as if he wanted to take out Chen Heng’s heart.

Chen Heng’s expression was calm and just peacefully watched Griffin.

Griffin’s hand grabbed at Chen Heng, but it was once again blocked by the barrier.

This was released by the magic tool on Chen Heng’s body.

Chen Heng had come fully prepared.

In the past, Charlie had given Chen Heng a magic tool to protect him, and after Chen Heng went back, Charlie did not take it. Instead, he left it with Chen Heng to protect his student.

The Ring of Protection was a real magic tool, and the barrier it contained could even block a true Sorcerer’s magic skill.

Apart from this, Chen Heng had various other magic items created by himself.

These magic items could also release powerful magic skills.

With these things at hand, Chen Heng did not move and allowed Griffin to continuously attack.

“His mental state has already become like this,” Chen Heng frowned as he looked at Griffin.

He could tell that Griffin’s state was very bad; he had never seen such chaotic mental ripples before.

Before entering the room, the Doyle’s family’s people had told him to be careful of Griffin going berserk.

By then, Chen Heng had already been mentally prepared.

However, it seemed that Griffin’s condition was much worse than he had thought.

With this kind of mental state, he was not suited to continue being a Sorcerer.

After all, Sorcerers’ greatest strength was being able to use magic skills. However, using magic skills required one’s mental state to be stable.

Otherwise, one would not be able to construct stable magic skill frameworks.

Even if their bodies had magic power, they would not be able to use it.

Standing there, Chen Heng remained silent for a while before sighing.

Following this, he walked out of the room.

The middle-aged man was still standing there, and seeing Chen Heng walk out, he hurriedly went over and asked, “Young master Ed, are you injured?”

“No, I’m fine.”

Chen Heng shook his head as he asked, “When did grandfather become like this?”

“About four months ago…”

The middle-aged man thought for a moment before saying, “Back then, Lord Griffin found some valuable materials and was thinking of doing some experimenting.

“It was just that he was affected by the experiment, causing problems in his mind and resulting in him fainting.

“Afterwards, he fell unconscious, and whenever he woke up, he would want to kill people.”

Speaking to there, a look of fear appeared on his face as if he had thought of something terrifying.

“Send some people over to stand watch over this place,” Chen Heng said as he lightly sighed, “I will try and see if I can help grandfather return to normal.”

However, he did not feel much hope.

After all, the mind was very complicated.

Even true Sorcerers did not have a great grasp over it, much less the current Chen Heng.

He had brought many medicines with him, and some of them could bring clarity to one’s mind.

It was just that he did not know if they would be effective on Griffin.

“Have there been any changes in the surroundings?” Chen Heng asked, “What about the other families’ attitudes.”

“Nothing has changed for now,” the middle-aged man said as he shook his head, “Very few people know of Lord Griffin falling unconscious; the other families do not know.

“However, as time goes on…”

He looked quite hesitant.

Chen Heng understood what he meant.

Sorcerers were quite hermetic and did not like to go out. This was even more so for Sorcerers who researched negative energy like Griffin.

Even in the past, Griffin did not meet with others very much.

As such, it would take some time for others to know that Griffin had fallen unconscious.

It would be no problem hiding it for one or two years.

However, as time went on, the other families’ people were bound to find out.

When that time came, there could be some problems.

Apart from Chen Heng, the Doyle family’s only Third Rank Apprentice was Griffin.

It could be said that for the Doyle family to have its current standing, it was only because of Griffin.

If they lost Griffin, their position would greatly fall.

The families that had enmity with the Doyle family would most likely act against them and take away everything they had.

This was why the Doyle family had quickly called back Chen Heng.

Thinking to there, Chen Heng could not help but shake his head.

From how he saw it, this was not that big of a problem.

The resources that the Doyle family had were not a big deal to him.

Even though he Doyle family was a noble family in this continent, this was only in a small kingdom, and they did not actually have that much.

There were countless uninhabited areas in other regions, and if things came to it, they could just find a new place to start again.

For Sorcerers, a mortal kingdom’s resources were just a trifling matter.

Apart from selling mortals as slaves to earn some magic stones, there was not much else.

That was what the Doyle family had done in the past.

However, from how Chen Heng saw it, it was expendable.

Chen Heng thought to himself and maintained a calm expression as he asked, “What about those experimental subjects?”

“They’re still in the castle,” the middle-aged man thought before saying, “After that day, we kept them in the castle.”

“Bring them out,” Chen Heng said after thinking for a moment, “Let me see how special they are.”

The middle-aged man respectfully nodded and quickly turned and walked out.

Soon, Chen Heng saw those experimental subjects; they were a pair of young girls.

“Girls?” Chen Heng frowned as he studied the two girls in front of him.

They looked around ten years old and were very small.

They wore ordinary clothes that were quite tattered, unable to cover their important parts, and they looked quite dirty.

They seemed to be a pair of twins; apart from that, there was nothing special about them.

Standing at the center of the room and meeting Chen Heng’s gaze, their bodies trembled, looking terrified.

Looking at the two girls, Chen Heng noticed that there were many small scars on their bodies.

“What is this?”

Looking at the girls’ scars, he frowned and looked to the old butler by the side.

“They are Lord Griffin’s experiments…” the old butler said softly.

“Experiments…” Chen Heng frowned, thinking of some bad memories.

This body of his had been taught by Griffin since it was young, and he had seen many of the things that Griffin had done.

From his memories, Griffin’s experiments had never been normal.

He would use various ways to torment his experimental subjects and observe their negative energy reactions.

The state of these two girls made Chen Heng think of what he had seen in the past.

Sitting on the wooden chair, he inwardly shook his head before looking at the two girls and asking, “What are your names?”

Being looked at by him, the two girls’ bodies seemed to lightly tremble, feeling an instinctive fear.

After a while, they shakily said their names.

One was called Alier and the other was called Veridor.

According to them, they came from another place and by ship, and they were bought by Griffin.

Apart from this, they did not know anything else.

………….

They did not seem to have come from a special family; their parents were just ordinary farmers and sold them as slaves to receive some money.

Looking at them, Chen Heng thought for a moment before saying, “Take them to get changed into some proper clothes.”

Hearing this, the old butler nodded and silently took the two girls away.

…

In the following days, Chen Heng became quite busy.

Griffin was still unconscious, and his mental state was still not very good.

In order to resolve this, Chen Heng tried many things.

He fed Griffin all kinds of medicines from the Hunter’s House, and he also used calming techniques to try to calm his mind.

Chen Heng’s efforts had some effect.

The combined effects of the medicine and calming techniques caused Griffin’s mind to stabilize a bit, but he was still unable to wake up.

His berserk mental ripples were still unable to calm down, but he went into his fits less.

However, once Chen Heng stopped treating him, he would once again go into a fit.

This made Chen Heng feel very troubled.

Fortunately, Chen Heng did not have much to do right now, so he could slowly try various things and was not in a rush.

Time gradually passed.

After a few days, Chen Heng was busying about within a quiet room.

At the center of the room was a small stone slab, on which there was a detailed Sorcerer Formation. It looked very complex and mysterious.

Chen Heng was still working on it.

As the Sorcerer Formation took shape, Chen Heng thought for a moment before putting a gem on the Sorcerer Formation.

Following this, a faint golden light shined out.

Within the pure red gem, a pure magic power was sent into the Sorcerer Formation.

Soon, the Sorcerer Formation began to spread out and give off a faint golden light.

“Alright.”

Seeing this, Chen Heng could not help but smile, “It succeeded.”

The Sorcerer Formation was one used for appraising Sorcerer talent.

In the past, this Sorcerer Formation required at least 50 magic stones to set up.

However, Chen Heng was able to activate it without using any magic stones.

Chen Heng’s theory had worked.

Back at the Hunter’s House, he had converted Rune Formations, successfully bringing out some of the Azure Heaven Realm’s Rune Formations as this world’s Sorcerer Formations.

This included the Rune Formations for storing spirit energy.

In this world, the corresponding Sorcerer Formations were used for storing Sorcerers’ magic power.

With this, it could replace magic stones.

Magic stones were essentially crystals made of high density elemental particles.

Even though the energy that they contained were slightly different to the magic power that Sorcerers used, the difference was not big.

This was the reason why magic stones were the most common currency between Sorcerers.

The difference between magic stones and magic power was the strength.

From Chen Heng’s tests, a magic stone contained around 50 ku of magic power.

50 ku was the amount that a peak Second Rank Apprentice would have.

If a Second Rank Apprentice had 50 ku of magic power, then they would be at the level to rank up to a Third Rank Apprentice. They just needed to grasp a corresponding magic skill framework.

The amount of magic power that a Second Rank Apprentice like that had was just the same as a single magic stone.

This was the harsh reality.

This was why most Sorcerer Formations used magic stones as power sources and not Sorcerers’ own magic power.

It was just that if a Sorcerer could save their magic power into an item, they would be able to create a replacement for magic stones.

In the past, this region did not have any skills that could condense and store magic power.

However, things were different now.

The red gem in front of Chen Heng was the vessel he was using to store magic power. It was all of the magic power he had stored over the past two years.

This was not just his own magic power; it included those from others.

In terms of magic stones, it contained around 50 magic stones’ worth.

It was quite suited to be used for this Sorcerer Formation.

As the gem gave off energy, the Sorcerer Formation was activated and gave off a faint golden light.

At that moment, Chen Heng turned and looked outside as he spoke, “Come in.”

Following this, footsteps could be heard as people filed in.

They were all the Doyle family’s people.

Now that he had activated this Sorcerer Formation, there was no point in wasting it, so he might as well put it to use.

This was why Chen Heng had called these people here.

Because the Sorcerer Formation for determining Sorcerer talent cost many magic stones, it was usually very expensive. Moreover, it also took a great deal of time and effort.

As such, many people were unable to go through the test even though they were from Sorcerer families.

However, Chen Heng was now able to do so.

Under Chen Heng’s instructions, the people from the Doyle family walked onto the stone slab one by one.

As expected, most of them did not have Sorcerer talent.

However, this was not surprising.

There were two of them who had some talent, but it was a pity that it was only Level 1 talent.

Ordinarily speaking, it would be impossible for them to become Third Rank Apprentices; they would struggle just to become a First Rank Apprentice or a Second Rank Apprentice.

However, this was not bad.

After all, having Sorcerer talent and being able to become a Sorcerer talent was a fortune in itself.

Even a First Rank Apprentice would have a stronger body due to the energy within it.

If they became Second Rank Apprentices and worked hard, they might even be able to grasp magic skills.

The test was quite quick, and soon, all of the people from the Doyle family had gone through.

However, the Sorcerer Formation could still last for some time.
