Chapter 243 - Increasing Lost



Having seen their appearance and the interior of the room, anyone would realize that what went on in this place was not exactly normal. But thankfully not many would ever find out about it.

Lucius simply nodded his head while accepting the praise of the two men. 

"Oh yeah, get those legs too." Lucius reminded.

"Of course, Young Lord." One of the men said before he picked up the two legs that had been chopped off.

They placed them on the stretcher along with the man and then brought him down to the lab. 

"You can go ahead and do your tasks then. Tell the guards at the prison to stop today\'s transport as well.." Lucius spoke.

"We shall do as you ask, Young Lord." The men said before taking their leave.

With them gone, Lucius was free to do whatever he wanted.

"Open the door," Lucius ordered Kiana.

She nodded her head and unlocked the metal doors of the lab that were locked with chains. Once they were open, one would only see darkness inside. Kiana took one of the lamps that were hanging at the side and lit the lamp inside the lab with it.

~shua~

As soon as one of the lamps was lit the others aromatically lit up as well. This was a system made using a rather simple artifact. Its only function was to ignite the other lamps when any one of them was lit. 

If one looked closely they would see a thin wire coming out from the top of the lamp. This wire then spread to the walls from where it went all over the lab to the different lamps in the lab.

This was one of the cheapest artifacts Lucius had found that barely needed any aether to run. In fact, it could recharge on its own as well since it barely used any Aether. Its only function was to create a spark when flames were detected on one of the lamps.

Since the energy was needed for the flames was provided by the oil in the lamps, there was no drain on the Aether itself. The cost of this artifact was about a single Aether crystal for every four meters of the wire.

Lucius had gotten about a hundred meters worth since he liked it and it was a convenient method to light large areas. As for refilling the lamps, he could always have other servants fill the oil in them, thus it wasn\'t really that bothersome for him.

Though he did have the aim to replace most of the lamps with the automatic flameless illuminating lamps such as the one that he had in his room. Lucius reckoned that with some adjustments he would be able to make some on his own.

It was also the perfect artifact to start with since it was a low leveled artifact, only needing a common ranked rune beast crystal. 

Once the lab was lit up, one would see several figures standing on the sides of the room. There were about twelve of them and, with the manner in which they were standing, one would think they were simply statues.

If it were not for their terrifying looking bodies, one would not even mind them. But they were far too harsh to avoid.

"Time to add another one to the team." Lucius spoke while looking at the now unconscious man.

These twelve figures were the Lost that Lucius had made in the past days. They were going to be the Masked legion and Lucius was making at least one of them every day. It was very useful for him since they were not only powerful creatures but also increased his own hell energy capacity.

Right now, as long as Lucius was within a kilometer range of the Lost, his hell energy would be three times the amount of what it normally would be. This had greatly increased the speed at which he was able to make the new Lost and was also managing to recover faster.

It also allowed him to quickly put Mark\'s of obedience on all of the staff working in the reeducation center. 

"Will it work on him? He\'s too injured." Kiana spoke.

"That\'s what we\'re here to test. If he survives, then we have another pawn added to the masked legion. If not… well, it\'s fine either way." Lucius replied.

"Hmm… but his gift… it\'s uncommon ranked. So far you\'ve only made those that have rare ranked gifts into these creatures right?" Kiana asked.

"Yes, but his gift shouldn\'t really be a problematic aspect here. If anything, having a lower ranked gift should only make it easier." Lucius said.

He too was curious what kind of an effect hell energy would have on an uncommon ranked gift. So far, Lucius had only turned the rare ranked gifted into Lost. Of the ones that he converted, only half of them had unlocked their corrupted gift.

Lucius could unlock them if he gave them more hell energy, but directly unlocking that took a lot of hell energy. Thus, he preferred to let them unlock it on their own. After all, as long as they had a steady supply of food and nutrition, they would do it automatically.

And considering the battle that will be coming in the near future, there was going to be plenty of that available. As for the uncommon ranked gift, Lucius was wondering if the corrupted form of his gift would be available from the start or not.

He also wanted to know how much hell energy would be required for someone who was in such a critical state to recover. In fact, Lucius didn\'t even know if it was possible for the man to recover.

After all, he had lost a lot of blood and would be dying at any time.

"Let\'s get started, shall we," Lucius said as he shifted the legless man to the T-shaped table and strapped him down.

Once that was done, he placed his hands on his head and started to pour the hell energy.
