Ronald was sowhat surprised.
The spells from the original to "The Origin of Species" belonged to the type that could be used directly once decoded. So, when Ronald opened the book and read the first line of text, all the spells in this original to appeared in his mind.
At the sa ti, since Ronald had mastered all the spells in this original to...
The powerful Complete Technique it contained
was also mastered by Ronald at the sa ti!
First, there were a series of ordinary original to spells:
[Mutation] —— This ability was divided into two forms: a mild, gradual type and an intense, evolutionary type. Once the spell was activated, the forr type would continuously strengthen the caster’s life essence at any ti, providing them with formidable vitality.
For example, Ella, an old Wizard nearing a hundred years old, had already obtained terrifying vitality through the enhancent of magic, able to withstand beheading or being crushed to a pulp.
As for the intense state of the latter,
it released this continuous vitality instantaneously to enhance attacks or repair the body.
At the sa ti, this steadily increasing vitality was also the cornerstone of "The Origin of Species" magic. Apart from regular spell usage, the abilities provided by this original to basically required life force as support.
[Survival of the Fittest] —— Kill living beings, and extract their excellent genetic traits.
[Natural Selection] —— With the genes extracted by [Survival of the Fittest], this spell would provide the caster with corresponding enhancents under its effect, while maintaining up to three physical transformations at most.
[Law of Mutation] —— This was a capability that further elevated the spell system.
It could integrate the two effects brought by the [Mutation] spell.
While enhancing the life force basis, it also fused the mild, gradual type with the intense, evolutionary type into a permanent, passive enhancent.
[Instinct] —— Simple, brute force enhancent.
It provided the caster with extrely quick reflexes and limb control abilities.
Moreover, when danger was about to strike, this spell would occasionally alert the caster to the incoming peril.
In the previous battle with Ronald,
Ella must have been able to miraculously dodge the attacks launched by [The Invisible Hand] with the help of this ability.
[Hybridization] —— This was the superior spell to [Survival of the Fittest] and [Natural Selection].
Once this spell was activated, the genetic traits stored by the caster would break limitations, with the number of three genetic traits lifted to six.
[Adaptability] —— As the na implies, this spell enabled the caster to adapt to various environnts. Not only extre heat or cold temperatures, but conditions like dim light or oxygen deprivation could also be faced with ease.
[Related Species] —— The final spell of "The Origin of Species."
It was also the most important spell within the normal system.
With this spell, the caster would be allowed to make slight modifications to the collected genetic traits and store them. By proceeding over many years, it would be possible to develop the most suitable abilities according to the caster’s needs.
Furthermore, according to this spell’s thod of manipulating life force, the caster could also perform physical transformations on others besides themselves.
"..."
"That is really impressive..."
Ronald, having sensed each spell provided by "The Origin of Species," gradually understood the situation he had encountered in the recent battle.
A variety of long-lasting and powerful passive enhancents, a spell system built upon life force—all circumstances considered, "The Origin of Species" was undoubtedly a powerful original to.
Just then, Ronald stood up and looked over at Ella.
The original to she had been using was forcibly stripped away, and the unconscious maintenance of magic began to fade.
Unless sothing unexpected happened, that person was as good as dead.
"..."
Shaking his head at this enemy, Ronald imdiately turned and walked towards Catherine.
anwhile, he began to ponder the biggest problem that ca with acquiring the new original to.
— The Complete Technique.
After fully mastering "The Origin of Species," it granted a powerful ability nad [Designed Evolution].
Once this Complete Technique was activated,
the accumulated life force inside the caster would enter an unimaginably active state and rapidly perfect the body’s functions according to the caster’s condition.
Ella’s resistance to sharp blades, immunity to the power of sunlight, resistance to Ronald’s other spells, ability to quickly break through [The Guardian Angel]’s attack...
All the surprisingly potent traits from the battle
were characteristics imdiately adjusted by Ella under the support of this Complete Technique.
As long as there was a strong reserve of life force,
a Wizard with this Complete Technique indeed possessed the formidable power to force any enemy to their demise!
But it was this ability that brought Ronald a problem.
— Too ugly!
— Completely inhuman!
Passive enhancents from spells that took effect on their own weren’t much of a problem.
But spells like [Natural Selection] or [Designed Evolution] actually transford the caster’s appearance before providing corresponding enhancent abilities.
Ella’s terrifying appearance, capable of starring in a horror movie,
was the result of various enhancents taking turns in action.
Even if Ronald was a pragmatist,
if he had to look like a ghost every ti he fought...
"..."
"This... I’d better use it less in the future..."
In less than two minutes from pulling away from the original to to arriving by Catherine’s side, Ronald had already determined the place of "The Origin of Species" in his arsenal.
He would keep passive spells, like life force enhancent, constantly active.
As for those that transford the body—unless absolutely necessary, he would definitely not use them!
On the other side, Catherine watched Ronald’s expression as he returned, imdiately revealing an ambiguous smile:
"Ronald, it seems you’ve gained quite a lot?"
"I’ve heard about Ella’s deeds; she kept quite a few handso n in her tower, living her life without stepping outside."
A chill ran down Ronald’s spine: "All her deeds... are like this?"
Catherine’s smile remained as she explained:
"Yes, that’s right."
"She conducted physical transformation experints on handso n daily, grasping both academic and lifestyle aspects, living really happily indeed."
"..."
Ronald glanced back subconsciously.
Although he rembered Ella’s beautiful appearance before using her spells,
the conjunction of her appearance after unfolding her magic and so conjured assumptions made Ronald feel sowhat queasy in the stomach.
— Swish —
As Ronald and Catherine chatted leisurely,
the air in front of them suddenly twisted, an occurrence only seen when large amounts of magic power dissipated here.
— Bapulor’s battle had co to an end.
— People were about to co out!
After realizing this within a few seconds,
a figure in a long robe abruptly leaped out of thin air!
