Getting a Technology System in Modern Day

Chapter 871  A Quest

"Anything you're seeing that I’m not?" Aron asked, turning to Henry, who was closely examining a piece of the FOL material inside a transparent box.

Henry, having already discovered some of his ocular abilities, focused on the material, his enhanced vision revealing details beyond normal perception. Even with his abilities, the most distinct feature he observed was the presence of ultra-thin mana threads weaving through the FOL material, holding it together.

"I don’t know what you’re seeing, but from my perspective, I can say with certainty that the reason the FOL material shifts between liquid and solid states is due to the mana threads binding it," Henry said, his voice filled with intrigue.

As he spoke, a holographic projection appeared, sharing his vision with Aron. Through Henry’s eyes, the mana threads pulsed subtly, shifting from a neutral yellow to a vivid green—the color representing the esoteric mana of life—whenever they detected an unshielded person nearby. The moment this transformation occurred, the FOL material liquefied, its mana threads turning green, seemingly primed for contact and potential integration with any living entity in its vicinity.

This alone was enough for Aron to form a hypothesis on how the material's contact mechanism functioned. It appeared to extract all necessary information from the mana present in the body it touched, with life-aspected mana taking over from there.
