"Ian... you're so good to me. I'll definitely succeed, gaga."
"I believe in you."
Ian turned and walked into the Laboratory, with Gaga following behind him.
The man and his bird arrived on the third underground level. The area had been cleaned out; with the altar dismantled, only an empty stone chamber remained.
Ian activated the three-layered Isolation Witch Array. A faint silver Light Curtain rose from the corners of the walls, enveloping the entire space.
"Go over there." He pointed to the center of the chamber.
Gaga spread its wings slightly and obediently flew over.
Ian first took out the four Shadow Crystals and placed them in a square around Gaga, one on each side.
He didn't take out the Tier Three crystals; it wasn't suitable for Gaga to absorb them yet.
Then, he took out a bottle of Tier Two Blood Essence Powder. As he uncorked it, a dense life aura and Magic Power fluctuations instantly filled the air.
