Chapter 93: Radiant Augmentation Index (3)

He then activated radiant cowl on his tail alone, however, this time he heavily restricted the flow of radiant energy. Until he was at a \'biting point, where if he restricted it anymore, the cowl would disappear.

He tried moving his tail to see how this \'low power\' version managed and found that though his tail was a little slow to respond to commands, it didn\'t seem hindered by its injuries at all.

~Perfect, now I can do a few experiments without having to worry about depleting my reserves too quickly,~ he thought.

He closed his eyes and quickly shut off radiant cowl, before immediately turning it back on. He wanted to examine in great detail the process of how radiant energy was being absorbed into his body.

~Hmm.~

After doing it several times, he realized something interesting. The vessels that his radiant energy was being \'absorbed\' into seemed to overlap with the vessels that it usually flowed in. This meant that the vessels he was visualizing when circulating his radiant energy were identical to those of his body.

~An interesting discovery, but that doesn\'t help me much right now,~ he thought, staring at the mental image he had created of the circulating energy.

~Wait, what\'s this?~ he thought, seeing that the flow seemed to be slower in particular areas. Usually, this meant that an organ was close by, interrupting the flow, however, there were no organs in his tail, at least from what he had gotten over his several hours of circulation.

~Besides, it\'s way too insignificant for it to be an organ,~ he deduced. Organs usually caused noticeable resistance to the flow, however, these were more like tiny \'buffer areas\', where the energy stayed a little longer than usual.

~Wait a minute,~ Lucius thought, quickly trying to map the areas where he felt pain to those of the buffer areas.

pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 They were identical. It seemed the cuts and tears inside his body caused a slight resistance to radiant circulation.

~Maybe they\'re too small to cause any significant change when the circulation is at maximum power,~ he realized, before performing a full-body cowl.

He kept the flow at the biting point and began making mental notes of all the buffer areas he noticed.

~I\'m completely messed up,~ was all he could think. There were just too many buffer areas to note down, it was as if every inch of his body was covered in them.

~So a process must be done for a new technique to be added, huh,~ he thought, reading the system notifications.

He activated radiant examination several times to see if there was anything more to the process. He tried slowing down the flow of radiant energy even more than before, but it instantly dismissed radiant examination once it got too below the biting point. He tried increasing the flow, but it seemed to be capped at a certain flow rate.

~Come on, there has to be another step to this,~ he thought. If radiant cowl was the first step, and radiant examination was the second, then there had to be more.

Perhaps it seemed like wishful thinking for him to think that there was a healing technique to be acquired from all this. But radiant cowl had qualities very close to healing, but it seemed to be a temporary effect.

He thought that maybe there was a chance he could extract that quality and enhance it, if that made any sense. But after a bit more experimentation, he realized that he was expanding too much radiant energy.

~I\'ll rest for a while and continue,~ he decided, before relaxing his mind.

He hadn\'t slept in three days, but he was sort of used to this sort of thing. Back in the military, there were times on deployment, when sleeping meant death. So most soldiers had developed a habit of being extra \'light\' sleepers.

A small footstep and they would be at attention, gun in hand ready to fire at whatever had just made that sound.

After \'resting\' for an hour he continued the experimentation. This time, he tried examining the root of everything, his crux.

If he could speed up and slow down the rate at which the energy circulated, perhaps he could change the qualities that it possessed.

First, he tried randomly doing things to see if it was at all possible. For instance, he tried to make his crux glow brighter and dimmer. And in turn, the radiant energy that was produced also changed.

A brighter crux seemed to have a toll on his vessels, causing a somewhat \'burning\' sensation, while a dimmer crux seemed to have a sort of cooling effect, soothing if you will.

He decided to go with the cooling effect, making his crux glow dimmer while circulating the soothing radiant energy.

~There it is, the healing quality,~ he thought to himself, realizing that his body was stitching itself up at a faster rate.

However, this \'stitching\' was nothing like solar cleanse. It seemed more, \'scientific\' less wishy-washy, and more solid. It seemed to be helping his body regenerate, or at least that was the way he viewed it.

~Besides, I\'m starting to doubt that solar cleanse would\'ve helped me all that much,~ he realized. He remembered how when he tried healing the insectoid the small tears on its wings hadn\'t healed.

Though it was just his theory at this point, solar cleanse probably worked to clear up less complex ailments. Like exhaustion, external trauma, and other external injuries. He highly doubted that it could fix ruptures and tears this deep within his body.
