Chapter 012 [Summoning Crows] and [Bioengineering]
He looked down at his body and understood that it was his soul, the foundation, and the dots of light around him were his scattered mental power.
The thin gray mist around the light spot is the magic power transformed from the spontaneous absorption of energy particles by mental power.
"soul!"
"Psychic power!"
"magic!"
The three are closely connected and interdependent, opening up Gawain's spiritual world.
Let the spiritual world always be there.
If he learns the meditation method, he can engrave will runes on the periphery, which will not only increase protection and make the spiritual world more stable, but also continue to expand.
"So...now let's start building the rune structure of [Summoning Crow]?"
"Let's get started!"
Gawain put aside his distracting thoughts and began to use his own will as the leader and his spiritual power as his pen and ink.
According to the process of analyzing the runes, they were carved bit by bit in front of the body, and the spiritual power turned into lines, constantly connecting, gathering, weaving, and entwining.
There is sophistication in complexity.
The extraordinary is hidden in the ordinary.
For a long time, a complicated flat geometric pattern appeared in front of my eyes. It looked complicated, but in fact it was less than one percent of the complete rune structure.
"Boom~~"
As soon as Gawain was distracted, the lines of his mental power shifted slightly. In an instant, as if it caused a chain reaction, the rune structure he had just constructed suddenly collapsed, causing fluctuations that swept through the spiritual world like a violent wind.
He felt as if he had been hit in the face with a sledgehammer, his head was dizzy, and when he opened his eyes, he found that he had exited the spiritual world.
"It shouldn't be a big problem."
Gawain breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed his "buzzing" head. The spiritual world has the ability to self-recovery. This level of shock is not dangerous, and it only takes half a day to completely calm down.
But within half a day, there was no way to engrave any more runes.
In addition, after too much mental energy is consumed, it will take time to recover. As a result, it will take at least a few months to engrave the complete [Crow Summoning] rune in your mind.
A slight deviation can happen in two or three months.
Of course, this is only for ordinary low-level wizard apprentices. If they are extremely talented, it will be a different matter.
Half a day later, the side effects of the failure to engrave the runes finally passed. Gawain put down the ancestral notes in his hand and focused on the kryptonite panel.
Since engraving runes is too time-consuming, let's upgrade.
[Magic]: Summon Crow lv0 (3%) +
[Krypton Gold Points]: 41.88
...
"Krypton gold points-4!"
Gawain tapped lightly with his mind, and [Summoning Crow] rose to level 1. Waves of insights came into his mind. Gawain came to the spiritual world in a trance, and began to continuously evolve the rune structure inscribed with [Summoning Crow].
Failed again and again.
Do it again and again.
Once the mental energy is consumed, it will recover immediately without any shock.
From jerky.
To become proficient.
Then you can have it at your fingertips.
After two breaths, Gawain opened his eyes again, as if he had finally understood all the rune structures of [Summoning Crow] after months of trials.
However, at this time, Gawain only had an empty realm and was not truly engraved.
He did not waste any time, picked up the crystal ball and relaxed his mind again. He quickly entered the spiritual world and began to wave freely. The rune structure of [Summoning Crow] was engraved stroke by stroke.
It is precise and concise, without any waste.
When his mental power was exhausted, Gawain had already engraved one-tenth of the complete runes. He exited the spiritual world exhausted, fell asleep, and continued to inscribe after recovering.
Repeatedly.
Liver-burning every day.
Three days later, as the last rune fell, a complete [Crow Summoning] rune finally appeared in front of us. It was beautiful, mysterious and exquisite, and seemed to have a magical power.
With just a slight flicker, it spread out under your feet like a carpet, occupying about one-third of the entire spiritual world.
"It seems that the spiritual world of a low-level wizard apprentice is still too small. It can only hold no more than three tricks at most. I wonder if other people are like me?"
Gawain rubbed his chin, and with a thought, his consciousness returned to reality.
He really learned the trick.
However, this trick is only an auxiliary and needs to be combined with [Biological Transformation] and "Steel Feather and Iron Claw Transformation" to be effective. With limited krypton gold points, the value of the upgrade is not great.
After careful consideration, Gawain temporarily gave up on upgrading.
"Try my first trick first."
Gawain stood still in the bedroom, sensing the magic power of the spiritual world attentively, and then mobilized the magic power to infuse the newly engraved complete witchcraft runes. The runes seemed to be activated.
A little light.
When he injected 1 unit of magic power, the entire rune lit up, and a mysterious aura condensed on Gawain.
He looked solemn, stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky:
"Weng~~"
In an instant, an invisible wave of magic power spread around.
"Hey, why didn't you respond?"
"Did it fail?"
Gawain waited for a while and felt a little strange when he saw that there was no movement in the room.
At this moment, several cries came from outside the room. He turned around and saw a black-feathered crow flying on the open window and looking into the house:
“Quaa??”
As if to say: "Hey, are you calling me?"
"Success!"
Gawain was a little happy, so he quickly got bread and water and walked towards the crow. The crow didn't seem to be afraid and looked at it curiously. When it saw the bread, it even moved forward.
Gawain tore the bread into crumbs and scattered them on the windowsill, where the crows ate them happily.
He tried to reach out and stroke the crow, but the crow just dodged twice symbolically. The third time, he simply let Gawain stroke him and just pecked at the bread crumbs.
"Not bad, a good start."
Gawain grinned and found a piece of blue cloth.
Write "1" in ink and tie it on the crow's left foot as a mark. I thought that after summoning a few more crows and getting familiar with them, I can start the "Steel Feather and Iron Claw Transformation" experiment.
This skill is actually included under [Biomodification] and is a "quasi-witchcraft". It also requires analyzing runes, but it does not need to be engraved in the spiritual world.
Instead, it is engraved on the experimental subject.
Coupled with a series of tedious conditions such as magic power accumulation, feeding, etc., it will slowly reach the point where ordinary crows can be transformed into extraordinary monsters.
certainly.
This technique is also applicable to the human body, but due to too many influencing factors, the success rate usually cannot reach 100%. Therefore, except for a few extreme wizards, few people will use it to transform themselves.
"Dong dong dong~~"
Gawain was about to analyze the "Steel Feather and Iron Claw Transformation" when a knock on the door came to his ears. He walked out of the room quickly and found that it was Old John banging on the repaired courtyard door.
He trimmed his messy hair, walked into the yard with a pair of panda eyes, and said doubtfully:
"Old John, it seems it's not the time to deliver the herbs yet, right?"
"ah?"
Seeing Gawain's appearance while standing at the crack of the door, Old John was stunned. After reacting, he said incoherently: "I'm sorry, Mr. Gawain, I'm disturbing... you... you..."
Gawain waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "You know, herbal medicine is too advanced, I need to work harder."
"Yes...yes!"
Old John hurriedly nodded and bowed, and said flatteringly: "You are really an admirable herbalist. It's no wonder that you have such advanced skills at such a young age. If my child can be half as diligent as you, I think... At my age, I no longer need to travel around.”
"However, Mr. Gawain, you should still pay attention to your health, after all..."
"well!"
Gawain quickly interrupted Old John's nonsense: "Thank you for the reminder, but you haven't answered my question yet."
Old John came back to his senses, looked around, and carefully took out an animal skin bag from his arms: "Mr. Gawain, look, I seem to have found a mutant herb you mentioned."
"oh?"
Gawain raised his eyebrows and then opened the courtyard door.
I found that what the other party took out was a bright red grass. After comparing it with the records in the ancestor's notes, I realized that it was indeed a magic potion, and it was the main ingredient for refining the [Blood-Boiling Potion].
It's called Boiling Blood Grass.
