Wizard: I Can Refine Everything-Chapter 453 - 72: Battle Body Mutation, Radiant Light Giant

Chapter 453: Chapter 72: Battle Body Mutation, Radiant Light Giant

The physical transformation left Richard somewhat at a loss for a moment.

The Battle Body Map did not mention that this battle form would react with the Radiation Rule.

But now, the Radiation Rule within him suddenly started moving on its own.

It seemed that the Radiation Rule had some kind of wonderful reaction with the Thunder Giant Battle Body, causing the already fused bloodline to start mutating.

This was not a good sign.

Mutation is a very common phenomenon during the process of physique evolution. Or rather, the essence of physique evolution is to pursue mutation.

But mutations are not always benign.

If uncontrolled, the probability of malignant mutations occurring is much higher than that of benign mutations.

Thus, Wizards always avoided unforeseen mutations during experiments.

And Richard’s current situation was clearly unexpected.

Facing this, Richard had to pull out a large amount of Magic Essence from his pocket to sustain the consumption caused by the mutation.

But he soon realized that this action was futile.

At this moment, his bloodline mutation was progressing at an astonishing rate.

His body, grown during the blood fusion stage, was crumbling in large parts.

The leaking tissue fluid mixed with blood and damaged cells quickly submerged the entire laboratory floor.

His absorption rate of magic power could not keep up with the rate of mutation.

He now had to reduce the speed of the mutation.

Without hesitation, Richard immediately pulled out the remaining Bloodline Neutralizer and Bloodline Stabilizer from his pocket and injected them into his body.

And the effects of the medications were immediate.

The two Magic Potions quickly slowed down the speed of the mutation.

Having a moment to catch his breath, Richard immediately pulled out a bottle of Life Essence from his pocket.

This substance was originally meant for emergency use on the battlefield, but at this moment, he naturally couldn’t worry about that.

As a vast amount of Life Essence was infused into his body, a mighty and gentle Life Energy began repairing Richard’s body.

Richard held Magic Essence in one hand and nutrient fluid in the other, continuously providing nutrients for the bloodline mutation.

Although he didn’t know whether this mutation was benign or malignant, he had to complete the process.

Leaving it half-finished would surely result in a bad outcome.

Under the repair of Life Essence, Richard’s body finally began to stabilize.

After about three hours, the mutation ended.

Richard got up from the ground and with a wave of his hand, a ball of flames fell onto the floor, burning the bloodied laboratory floor clean.

Richard looked at his body and sighed slightly, "I don’t know what the mutation has turned me into." fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

At this moment, he could only pray that the mutation was benign, otherwise, his combat capability would significantly decrease.

It was almost impossible for him to complete another battle body before the war started.

Upon entering the Secret Realm, Richard first sought out Ulysses and explained the changes in his body to him.

"Rules leading to bloodline mutations, isn’t that quite normal?" Ulysses scratched his head, looking somewhat puzzled at Richard.

"Didn’t the books you read describe the effects of rules on organisms?"

"No," Richard shook his head, "Those books only discussed the applications of rules."

Although Garon Wizard College’s Great Library had many books, the authors were at most Three Rings Wizards.

And these Three Rings Wizards were neither Great Wizards nor students of a Great Wizard. Their understanding of rules was all self-developed.

A few oversights were normal.

Plus, it’s likely that Garon the Great Wizard, who left behind the battle body, never anticipated that his creation would react with other rules.

"Alright," Ulysses said somewhat helplessly, "Rules can subtly influence the body and even the soul they possess, making it easier for the owner to use the rules.

This kind of impact is particularly significant on the bloodline.

In our place, descendants of demigods or divine beings, when they acquire the rules possessed by their ancestors, use them very skillfully.

Your case just hit a critical point, making the mutation more intense."

Speaking of which, Ulysses looked a bit puzzled and said, "Honestly, such things should not be a secret.

Even incomplete rules would have an impact on the body’s bloodline.

Surely Wizards can’t stop reproducing?"

"We indeed have Wizard Families," Richard replied somewhat reluctantly, "but that’s a relic of a backward era, and the Wizard World is about to phase these out.

Usually, reproduction among Wizards occurs at the One Ring Wizard stage. There are very few Second Ring Wizards who reproduce.

And by the time they reach Three Rings Wizards, not to mention whether Wizards have the inclination to reproduce, do you think many of them are even capable of reproducing?

You certainly can’t expect elemental beings, undead beings, wandering souls, or mechanically altered beings to reproduce."

Ulysses was silent for a moment and then spoke softly, "That might not necessarily be a bad thing. Without families, there would be fewer useless and superficial wastes, and the civilization’s vitality would be stronger.

The Gods Civilization has been at war with the Abyss Civilization for so long because there are too many useless beings.

Compared to the demons who grew up through slaughter, those wastes only lead commanders to make misjudgments."

After confirming that this was a normal phenomenon, Richard was full of anticipation for his new battle body.

According to Ulysses, the rules would make the body’s bloodline more suited to the rules. So, this mutation should make his Thunder Giant Battle Body even more suitable for using the Radiation Rule.

Filled with expectation, Richard activated the Transformation Battle Body.

The next moment, a pale green radiant glow emanated from Richard’s body, making his blood vessels unusually bright as if they were flowing with energy.

His body suddenly grew to three meters, his entire body’s muscles bulging. Fine dragon scales spread across his skin, and two ferocious dragon horns flashed with white-purple thunder.

It seemed that aside from having a greener and slightly smaller stature, Richard’s body hadn’t changed much from the Thunder Giant Battle Body.

However, the lack of significant changes in appearance did not mean there was no change in abilities.

Richard pointed his finger, and a thunderbolt as immense as a python swallowed a distant target.

"Five thousand energy level, not bad," he said, nodding slightly as he looked at the distant target, now glowing red and molten.

He hadn’t manipulated this attack at all; it was entirely the power of the thunder itself. If he were to use Wizard knowledge for manipulation, reaching a ten thousand energy level wouldn’t be a problem.

Over the years, Richard had acquired quite a bit of knowledge from the Shape-shifting School.

With the support of his abilities, his proficiency in the Shape-shifting School even surpassed that of a regular Three Rings Shaping Wizard.

Since the thunder hadn’t changed, the change, it seemed, was in the ability to devour energy.

With a thought, Richard formed an additional energy cycle in his body on top of the one maintaining the Transformation Battle Body.

This was an Energy Cycle tailored for the Thunder Giant Battle Body, designed to significantly enhance its combat capabilities.

However, now that Richard had established this cycle, he discovered that the function of this cycle had undergone a tremendous transformation.

Upon establishing the cycle, his body began to frantically absorb the surrounding energy, then started to expand continuously.

Four meters, five meters, six meters... Richard’s body kept growing until suddenly, he felt a slight cracking sound from his body.

His muscles began to tear, and his bones could no longer bear the burden.

Reluctantly, Richard began to forcibly intervene in the energy cycle.

As the energy cycle slowed down, Richard’s growth also ceased, and his body even began to shrink.

This unrestrained expanding and shrinking ability came from the Cloud Giants. Even for them, their bodily growth was limited.

But this cycle made him feel that the growth was infinite.

As long as there were energy, it could grow endlessly.

Soon, Richard’s body stabilized around five meters. This size combined strength and speed, making it very suitable for combat.

The only flaw was that it was too tall.

Such a large target would be incredibly conspicuous on the battlefield.

After shrinking to an appropriate size, Richard began a new test.

A slight spark of lightning flashed at his fingertips, and with a snap, it struck his other arm.

Oddly enough, this lightning, with a strength of two thousand energy levels, only caused him a moment of pain.

His body devoured the lightning at an unimaginable speed.

"Indeed, the biggest change is here."

The mutated battle body had become even more potent at absorbing energy.

Aside from these abilities of the battle body, Richard also felt that the power granted by the Radiation Rule, when the battle body was activated, was much stronger than before.

He could now even roughly control a certain level of high-energy radiation, which originally required a Radiant Concentration Cannon to create cluster radiation flows; he could now do it barehanded.

The only drawback was that this technique was very taxing on spiritual power.

Richard felt a little dizzy in the brain after using it only twice.

After confirming the changes in his body, Richard, looking at his glowing body, sighed slightly, "This battle body can no longer be called the Thunder Giant; it should be more apt to call it the Radiant Giant."

He turned off the battle body, and the cellular-level fatigue instantly made Richard feel as though his entire body was hollowed out.

Using the Transformation Battle Body also consumed the life energy of his cells, and the more complex the battle body, the stronger the consumption.

Previously, when he just had the Dragon Blood, this consumption was not very noticeable. But now that he had completed the Radiant Battle Body, even a brief activation made him feel extremely tired.

Fortunately, this was only temporary.

As long as he practiced frequently, his body’s cells would gradually adapt to the Transformation Battle Body, thereby reducing the loss of cellular life energy.

After finishing his practice with the Transformation Battle Body, Richard divided his remaining time into two parts, one to continue studying the relics of the Pioneers.

The other part was to strengthen the Fire Lizard Battle Group.

The Fire Lizard Battle Group had been replenished and was now back to a size of five hundred people. But compared to before, the current Fire Lizard Battle Group was several times stronger.

This strength was enough to serve as cannon fodder.

But Richard didn’t plan to use them as cannon fodder; that would be too wasteful.

He pulled a notebook out of his pocket, which recorded some of his thoughts over the years.

On page one hundred and twelve of the notebook, there was a passage.

"Since I can use enhanced cells for physique enhancement, applying this method to Alien Slaves might be feasible.

Moreover, some body modifications are harmful to Wizards.

But for those tenacious Alien Slaves, there might not be any harm.

If Wizard methods are applied to the Fire Lizards, perhaps the combat capability of the Fire Lizard Battle Group could greatly increase."
