Reincarnated as an Energy with a System
chapter-1564

"This is it?" Redaime asked, looking at the clear glass bottle that remained in front of her with the somewhat vile mixture. She moved to open the bottle, but Ning quickly stopped her.

"You don't want to do that. The fumes it produces are toxic to human skin," Ning said.

Redaime stopped. "Okay..." she said and moved back. She then looked at the various other small bottles with just the raw ingredients lined up. "And these are what they use to make it?" "Yes." Ning pointed to the two bottles with the limestone chalk and salt-like material. "Mix these two first and then add that one last. Once they're all mixed together, pour these two juices at a 2 to 1 ratio and mix the whole thing as quickly as you can. You get that in the end." He pointed at the first bottle.

Redaime slowly nodded. "And this is how they make Dust?"

Ning shrugged. "This is how they start making Dust. I don't know if they add something else. I plan on looking some more."

Redaime looked at Ning with a peculiar look on her face. "How are you getting this information?" she asked. "How have you not been caught?"

"Luck?"

Ning had no other answer to give. There was no answer he could give that wouldn't cause her to become more suspicious.

Redaime didn't pursue that line of questioning and moved back to the materials. "I can tell that's the juice of a Mapple, but what is that? I've never smelled something so vile coming from a plant before."

"I'm not sure either, Captain. I'm not that well-versed when it comes to plants," Ning said.

"We'll have to get someone who does. You keep doing what you're doing. And don't get caught. The only reason I'm even letting you continue this mission is because of how well you've done it. Honestly, I can't imagine what Harper was thinking about sending one of humanity's best Converters into such a deadly mission. She needs an earful after all of this is over."

Ning was dismissed from the room afterward. Redaime still didn't know what all the

materials were, but that was no longer Ning's problem. She would get someone to help her with that.

As for himself, he returned back to the Leader's house and waited for him to do something. It was a long wait.

The leader had not stopped doing Dust at all. He did it under limits and under supervision, but he still did it so many times a day that Ning just had to sit there and watch him be high all the time.

From time to time, when he gained some clarity, he would reach for some rocks he had gathered in his room and try to turn them into Dust. But no matter how much he tried, he simply could not.

However, Ning was sure the man was going to do so someday.

The only reason Ning had been able to do it within a single night was because he could feel and taste the Dust, and understand what it was continuously without feeling its effect.

What he understood from Dust remained in his mind much longer than an addict who constantly lost his mind all around. Still, with enough tries, he could do it within a few months if not weeks.

In the evening when the lights in the sky finally went out, the Carver finally arrived at the house. He had brought the other woman from last time.

Karina brought out 4 suits that appeared to be the same spacesuits that people who had gone to the asteroid wore. The suits were connected through loose metal tubes that connected them, through which air passed between them.

The Breather girl pumped air into their suit and everyone got to breathe fresh air. If they were going to go underground, they would need that.

She was at one end and the leader was on the other end. The Carver created a pocket of rock around them and finally opened the ground underneath them so that the air from inside didn't escape outside.

Ning waited for them to come down to the room, breathing the toxic air, feeling no discomfort whatsoever. He wondered what they were going to do now.

Were they going to use the Breather girl to pump enough air into this room where the toxic fumes from the mixture would be diluted enough that they could be freely let out into the open air up above?

Or did they have some other plans?

The mixture they had spread around the room, had turned a dull light brown color, with green bits of leaves visible all around. This was nowhere near being what Dust actually was.

The fumes had also filled the entire room to the point that it was much more toxic today than yesterday when they had just begun leaking from the mixture.

They absolutely needed a good plan to get rid of all of it.

When they arrived, they began picking up a shovel and shoveling the now-dry mixture into one corner.

Ning was surprised that was their first move, but he continued watching. It took them about half an hour to shovel everything into one corner, and when they did, it was in a large pile, that appeared larger than yesterday, as though it had swollen up.

Once everything was in one corner, the Carver moved on his own, eating a bit of Spark and then pulled the ground from under him until there was a wall in front of him all the way up to

the ceiling.

The man had cut off about one-fifth of the entire room, confining him and the others in there. Ning teleported inside to see what they were doing.

None among them were even talking, so he couldn't see how they knew what to do. Was Karina really a Connector? He hadn't seen her notice him if she was one, so she had to be a bad

one.

Whatever the case, he waited to see what they would be doing next.
