Chapter 151 - The Slime That Shouldn't Be
Lynx had poured over the research journal extensively.
And in doing so, he came to understand exactly why this entire mess was happening—and why it was currently driving him mad.

[Phase 1: Using artifacts with my own mana]
[Phase 2: Studying the purity of mana]
