Witcher: I Can Extract Everything
/ Witcher: I Can Extract Everything Chapter 219 – Palace
Following Javier all the way to the west side of the ruins, Heath soon came to a dilapidated building.
It looked like a palace. It should have been grand in the past, but now it was basically deserted. Half of the stone slabs at the entrance had collapsed, and the broken stone pillars had collapsed everywhere. Even the stone steps were broken.
When they were close to the palace, Heath could clearly feel an elemental wave coming from the palace. A distorted forcefield could be vaguely seen at the entrance.
Javier explained, “Burbitt and I saw this palace when we came here. From the map, we can see that this palace is the other end of Twilight City, but we can't get in no matter what…”
Burbitt echoed, “Yes, there seems to be an invisible wall there, Sir Wizard.”
“Let me see.”
Heath walked up the broken stone steps and came to the entrance of the hall.
Half of the hall's door had collapsed. Large slabs, stone pillars, and all kinds of broken bricks and tiles piled up at the door, almost completely blocking the door, leaving only a small hole.
However, the surface of the door seemed to be covered with a layer of film, like an invisible door. The entire space under the film was distorted.
Javier said, “Sir, it's here.”
Heath glanced left and right, picked up a stone, and threw it at the door. The moment the stone touched the film, there was a bang, and it was bounced to the side by an invisible forcefield.
A ripple appeared on the thin film, as if a stone had been thrown into a calm lake.
Heath touched his chin. “Magic restriction?”
He then extended his spiritual tentacles to the magic restriction in front of him to analyze it.
In the field of magic, it was the same thing. Potions, restrictions, magic arrays, these were all formed by the arrangement of runes and the runic formulas. As long as one had a firm grasp of the basic knowledge, they would basically be able to understand everything in one go. Naturally, it would not be difficult for Heath.
The spiritual tentacles that were like silk threads pierced into the thin film in front of him, and Heath quickly figured out the structure of the restriction.
“Forcefield defensive spell? It's really like the arrangement of the structure of Atlas. Is this how ancient Wizards used the arrangement of spells? It's really so rough and straightforward…”
After understanding the structure of the restriction, Heath immediately began to dismantle the restriction.
In the spiritual forcefield that only Wizards could see, thousands of thread-like spiritual tentacles pierced into the energy film in front of them.
The energy film also lit up with densely packed runes and character arrays.
The threads that pierced into the energy field began to quickly cut the runes next to them and change the original arrangement.
As the arrangement of these threads was rewritten, one could clearly see layers of ripples appearing on the membrane force field in the real environment, just like the surface of a boiling lake.
This continued for a while.

The surface of the membrane trembled violently for a while, and then it collapsed like a melted candle.
Hu hu! A gust of cold wind blew out from inside, indicating that the door had been opened.
'Strange. Has anyone opened this restriction before?'
Heath touched his chin.
During the process of analyzing the restriction, he felt that the restriction seemed to have been moved by someone. Many runes seemed to have just been restored under the self-repairing runes of the restriction.
'Maybe it's because the runes in the magic array are reset regularly?'
After thinking for a while, Heath didn't have any more ideas.
He took out a torch from his dimensional pocket and lit it. He said to Javier and Burbitt behind him, “Let's go in and take a look.”
Javier looked at the dark cave and said timidly, “Sir, we'll help you guard this place. If anything happens, we can inform you in time and call everyone here.”
Heath thought for a moment and said, “Alright then.”
These two were just ordinary Knights. They would not be of much help even if they followed them.
After saying that, Heath held his torch and walked forward alone. However, he had only taken two steps when he suddenly felt something. He suddenly turned his head and looked down the stone steps.
Heath frowned.
Just now, he clearly felt that there seemed to be something down there. However, when he turned his head to look, there was nothing there.
This was not the first time he had felt this way. It was the same when he had just arrived at the ruins. Even when he was infected by the strange oil painting, there seemed to be a voice that woke him up…
Was it an illusion? Or was there really something targeting him?
He thought for a moment but had no idea. Heath could only put this aside for the time being and walked into the palace with a torch in his hand.
The first thing that came into his view was the hall of the palace. The high dome had completely collapsed. Large slabs, stone pillars that were dozens to hundreds of meters high, broken bricks and tiles were piled on top of each other.
Among the broken bricks and tiles, there was a tall stone statue that had been broken into several pieces from the beginning to the end. Broken pieces of the stone statue were scattered all over the ground.
A few rays of sunlight shone through the collapsed outer wall and interweaved into a few beams of light in the air, illuminating the floating dust within.
Da da da… The sound of footsteps sounded, especially clear in this silent hall.
And then, many echoes came from the ruins.
Squeak!
Rustle!
All kinds of strange sounds were heard. Some unknown bugs and large rats were scuttling around in the ruins. When they sensed that a stranger had entered, they hurriedly dodged.
Heath reacted quickly and immediately activated his Wizard's Forcefield, stopping some of the little things that had not escaped into the depths of the ruins.
He then raised his hand and waved, and two strange creatures fell into his hands. One was an animal that looked like a rat, but was only the size of a thumb, and the other was a beetle. There was a strange face on its shell.
“Baby Thumb Rat? Strange Face Beetle? This place even has these things? Aren't they all extinct?”
Heath was very surprised.
The two demonized creatures in his hands were both relatively ancient magic species, and it was said that they were extinct. Heath had been in Shadow Tower for so long, but he had only seen the specimens in books.
“I didn't expect to see treasures here. If I take them out…”
Thinking of this, Heath shook his head and rejected this idea. These demonized creatures had a very strong pollution on their bodies. Their internal structures had probably been destroyed by the pollution, so it was not worth much research if they were taken out.
“I should use them to contribute attribute points…”
Thinking up to this point, Heath exerted a little force and decisively ended the lives of these two little things.
'Extraction.'
[Beep, extraction successful. Spiritual Power +0.06]
[Beep, extraction successful. Soul Mutation Value +268]
[Beep, extraction successful. Soul Energy +3]
[Beep, extraction successful. Obtained…]
A series of notifications sounded. The two little things clearly did not have much energy, but unexpectedly, Heath managed to extract a lot of good things. After all, these two little things could be easily killed by ordinary humans… Compared to the things extracted from their bodies, it was too shocking.
Could it be because these were all ancient species?
Just as Heath was guessing, he did not notice that in the ruins behind him, a black shadow had quietly swept towards him…
