The unknown crystal is obviously a good thing.
In Luke's opinion, it could even be considered a magical material. It could be used as a material to create equipment with magical properties.
Because the unknown crystals were formed from the entire body essence of a high-ranking vampire, condensed by a device built by Luke, they should be called vampire crystals, or vampire crystals. Strictly speaking, other creatures can also be condensed into similar crystals, including ordinary creatures without special energy. However, their crystals are too fragile, and aside from being used as a supplement for Habu and Venom, they can only serve as auxiliary materials in certain research and equipment construction.
Based on Luke's experience, such crystalline intelligent life forms are bound to condense, and the crystals condensed by intelligent life forms are also bound to be of the highest quality and have the widest range of uses. Some intelligent life forms' crystals can even be used as high-density storage devices, storing most energy. They will also actively absorb and store some special energy within.
Of course, the ones with the best quality and the greatest effect at present are still the high-level vampires who possess dark energy in their bodies. They are intelligent creatures themselves, and can be said to be magical creations, so their crystals will have more characteristics and are more valuable for research.
After numerous experiments, Luke discovered that even though they were all vampire crystals, their colors varied. Most were dark gray or dark black, but some were a mixture of black and white, or a misty grayish-white. In addition to conducting experimental research, Luke also conducted extensive intelligence research with the help of S.H.I.E.L.D.
The final conclusion is that the more evil one's heart is, the more one will fall into darkness, and the emotions tend to be dark. After death, the crystals that are transformed will mostly tend to be black or dark gray. Those who can maintain a certain self under the spiritual erosion of dark energy and do not commit much killing will mostly tend to have black and white or gray and white crystals that are transformed after death.
After much hesitation, Luke decided to name this new crystal material Bloodline Crystals. However, if he encountered a wizard or something in the future, he could change the name to Soul Crystals. After all, they were the essence of a life, including the condensation of spiritual consciousness, so calling them Soul Crystals was fine.

"Oh my god, so many jewels! Boss, are you rewarding us? They all look amazing." Jessica Jones, summoned by the White Queen, exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the exquisite jewelry displayed on the table before her boss. She couldn't say she had completely escaped the shadow cast by the Purple Man, but with the counseling of her psychiatrist and her interactions with Ina, Snooker, and others, she was able to lead a normal life.
"Jewelry? No, this is new equipment." Luke shook his head, denying Jessica's words. "As for the jewelry, you can go to a jewelry store and buy it with your salary."
"Is this, new equipment?" Jessica blushed and put down a silver necklace in her hand. She looked at these crafts that were obviously the same as the jewelry on the market, and there was still some hesitation in her tone.
"Yes! Equipment! The only thing I can tell you is that after experiencing them, you might prefer to call them magical equipment rather than technological equipment." Luke handed a pair of off-white crystal bracelets to Tiny, a female security team member beside Jessica and also with Ina. "Take them."
Tiny took the bracelets without hesitation and put them on his wrists one on each side.
The activated bracelet deftly bound around Tiny's wrist. Suddenly, Tiny felt a surge of strength flooding her body. It was a wondrous feeling, a sense of supreme physical condition, a feeling of boundless power. She even felt like she was wearing her beloved battle suit through a state of synaesthesia! That extraordinary feeling of power, surpassing one's own limits, was exactly the same.
"Tell me how you feel." Luke took out the recorder.
"Great. This feeling is familiar." Tiny recounted his feelings in detail, sharing a lot of his own feelings. Finally, under Luke's command, he demonstrated his current strength. When a steel door panel was twisted and folded by a huge force, Snoke and the others' eyes flickered and they all looked at Jessica Jones.
Among all the people present, only Jessica could perform such an act simply by relying on the physical body without using any technological equipment.
"Has physical fitness also improved along with strength? This is as it should be. Otherwise, simply raising a wooden board wouldn't be very effective." Luke was thoughtful after watching the test that Tiny completed with his own body.
Next, Luke tested the first batch of magic equipment he had created. Not only did some of it enhance physical abilities like strength, speed, and leaping, but some also possessed special abilities, transforming people into superhuman beings. For example, Snoke was astonished to discover he could control metal within a ten-meter radius, ultimately reaching a maximum weight of around one ton.
Some members of the security team have the ability to control fire and strong winds.
While most of these abilities aren't immediately impressive, the magical sense of immersion and control they offer is truly addictive. Who could resist possessing superpowers? Even if many of their displayed powers seem like mere magic tricks, more for show than practicality.
Everyone, including Jessica, was very interested in this batch of new equipment.
However, after the test was completed, Luke collected all the equipment. He explained that this was merely a confidential test of the equipment, not its actual use. Furthermore, the actual results of the test were only disappointing, demonstrating a feasible path for Luke, but not yet a successful outcome.
Luke has already identified a targeted customer group for them - mages!
If these so-called "magic equipment" can't be sold, then we can stick to our original plan and sell more energy conversion devices and the latest energy storage crystals. After all, mages rely on borrowed power. With energy storage crystals, we can borrow more and store them for future use. Who knows when they might need them? At least, even if the power supply suddenly goes out, we still have a backup source of energy to support us in battle.
