Chapter 0429: Accumulation of Strength

Grimm stayed in the alchemy laboratory for 6 hours before coming out.

The moment he came out, his originally surging mental power was completely consumed, and he was a little shaky when he walked.

Back in the bedroom on the 4th floor, Grimm immediately began his daily meditation.

Continuous 5 hours of deep meditation made him energetic again, and also brought him a slight increase in mental power of 0.0005 points. Although such an increase is slow, if he persists for many years, he can also have a significant increase in strength.

However, the mental power increase brought by daily meditation is not constant. When the mental power grows to a certain extent, the effect of meditation will gradually decrease. Therefore, there are many guys who want to rely on accumulation to become a level 2 wizard, but almost no one succeeds.

Otherwise, there are so many level 1 wizards whose lives are extended to 200 to 300 years, but only a handful of them can become level 2 wizards. One of the main reasons is the shackles of rules!

When advancing to the rank of wizard, almost every wizard needs to condense his own consciousness core, and the degree of fit between this core and the plane rules also limits the upper limit of the spiritual power that can be achieved.

Daily meditation is a subtle process of constantly assimilating the consciousness core with the plane rules!

However, this process has its limits and is greatly affected by the rule structure in the core. If the wizard himself does not improve his understanding of his own innate rules, then it will be difficult to make any progress when the consciousness core grows to the limit. Therefore, only by working hard to master the rules can the threshold and total amount of the consciousness core be continuously pushed up, just like digging a pool. The deeper and more comprehensive the understanding and mastery of the rules, the larger the pool will be.

Daily meditation is like constantly filling this pool with water. When the water is not full, you can clearly feel the rise of the water line. But if the pattern of the pool does not change, the water will always be filled one day. At that time, it will be the moment when the wizard will worry about his own strength and no further progress.

But how can it be so easy to understand and master the rules...

Rules are always illusory. Some people can experience the existence of rules by practicing witchcraft over and over again, some people can verify the existence of rules through rigorous witchcraft experiments, and some people can directly feel the existence of rules...

Witchcraft spells can be memorized and mastered through repeated practice, and witchcraft knowledge can be recorded, circulated and passed on through books and knowledge crystals. But there is no good way to spread and pass on the understanding of the rules of the world.

So far, the only way to achieve this is the blood inheritance of bloodline wizards.

Guys with bloodline talents cannot intercept the world rules and pass them on, so they can only embed some vague fragments of their consciousness into the bloodline inheritance. In this way, with the continuous dedication of countless bloodline wizards for thousands of years, later generations can easily obtain these precious consciousness inheritances through the traction of bloodlines.

With the guidance and demonstration of the predecessors, the progress of bloodline wizards is of course extremely rapid.

This also makes bloodline wizards the most powerful group of people in the wizard world. If it weren't for the influence of bloodline shackles, it's possible that bloodline wizards would become the largest faction in the wizard world.

Unfortunately, bloodline is the key to success and failure!

Bloodline shackles are like a noose around the necks of all bloodline wizards. As they continue to improve, the noose will get tighter. One day, they will be stuck in a certain stage in great pain, struggling for a hundred years without being able to move forward!

Compared with bloodline wizards, elemental wizards pay more attention to the understanding and comprehension of the rules of the world. Although there is no guidance, there is no insurmountable threshold. That's why Grimm resolutely joined the ranks of elemental wizards.

What he needs to do now is to meditate and accumulate witchcraft knowledge on the one hand, and repeatedly temper his mental power on the other. The semi-elementalization of his body allows him to easily cross the threshold of a level 1 wizard, and if he wants to become a level 2 wizard, he must also elementalize his mental power.

And this inevitably requires the use of the mysterious lava sea at the bottom of the wizard tower!

However, the conditions are not yet ripe, so he cannot use the lava sea to temper his mental power for the time being. As for the main reason for his delay, it is still the mutation of the flame body being assimilated by the alien energy when the Flame Demon Heart was unsealed last time.

At present, he is still carefully evaluating the impact of this mutation on himself, so it also affects the process of the elementalization of mental power.

Thinking of this, Grimm raised his right hand and silently mobilized the energy in the Flame Demon Heart, directing it to his right hand. In an instant, the slender and flexible right hand just now was covered with a layer of black and metallic mysterious material, like a demon's palm.

This layer of mysterious material feels hard and can resist the stabbing and chopping of sharp weapons, and can also resist elemental attacks below 15 degrees. And as the energy continues to increase, Grimm's right hand is like a constantly alienated monster, the palm is expanding and growing, and the fingers are constantly stretching and thickening with crisp sounds. The most obvious change was in the nails, which twisted and mutated during the rapid growth, and the ends became increasingly sharp, with curved arcs that looked like sharp daggers.

Grimm took out a black-patterned dagger from his storage belt and used it to slash the palm of his right hand a few times, splashing dazzling sparks, but the black palm was unscathed. It was not until Grimm took out an enchanted dagger and stabbed it hard against his palm that he felt a slight pain.

Judging from this point, once the changes in the Flame Body are completed, his body will be completely immune to attacks from ordinary weapons, and only enchanted weapons can cause him some damage.

But the alien energy brought him not all benefits!

Grim took out a mirror, opened his mouth and looked at it.

The originally white and neat teeth had been replaced by sharp white teeth. When he opened his mouth, a strong smell of sulfur began to spread in the room.

It took a long time until Greem dissipated the alien energy, and the mutation that had just occurred slowly disappeared.

"Chip, the process just now has been recorded, right? Have you found any good solutions?"

"Hey, the alienation process has been recorded, and the elemental changes in the body during the subject's mutation are being analyzed... This mutation will help the subject adapt to the pure flame energy in the heart of the demon faster, so it is not recommended that the subject block the mutation. Because that will reduce the fit between the main body and the flame energy..."

Greem couldn't help but feel speechless after hearing Chip's suggestion.

After all, Chip was not him. Everything was aimed at maximizing functions. As for Greem's insistence on the human body, Chip had a completely different understanding from him for the first time.

Perhaps this is the fragile side of human beings!

Greem helplessly laughed at himself, then left the bedroom and returned to the experimental area on the fifth floor.

This time he went to no longer an alchemy laboratory, but another small biological transformation room.

Compared with the precision, meticulousness, neatness and elegance of the alchemy laboratory, the biological transformation room seemed much more eerie. On each huge stone platform, there are specific types of creatures and monsters of completely different types. Many of them are mutilated, with obvious signs of surgery on their bodies.

Sensing Greem's arrival, a humanoid demon doll covered in silver and only 1.8 meters tall came to stand in front of him respectfully.

Looking at the bloody knives and saw teeth on the engineering auxiliary golem's mechanical arm, Greem couldn't help but ask: "How are Experimental Subjects No. 1 and 2 doing?"

"Experimental Subject No. 1 has been cleaned up, but the vitality of Experimental Subject No. 2 is still decreasing, and only 87% of its body functions are retained..."

The two people walked and talked, and soon came to a huge stone platform.

On the stone platform, a small mountain-like demonized spider was crawling there. Its head had disappeared, and the huge abdominal pouch behind it had shriveled up. However, the huge body and the shiny black and sharp jointed limbs placed there can still give visitors a sense of terrible oppression.

Although the demon-hunting spider Tula is dead, its remains are still of great value!

Its four pairs of spider legs are as sharp as demonic weapons. If it were handed over to enchanters or alchemists, they would definitely be able to tap out their maximum power and transform them into suitable witchcraft.

As for the old spider's back shell, I don't know what kind of material it is made of. It is not only flexible but also has excellent magic resistance. If they were transformed into small hand shields, they would be so light that even wizards could pick them up.

In the body of the old spider, a huge venom gland, venom sac and a huge silk sac were also dug out.

These things will definitely have completely different effects in the hands of different wizards. Greem was not good at handling witchcraft materials, so he could only give them to Gargamel. After all, Gargamel is also a pharmacist. The old spider's poison glands and poison sacs can definitely increase his poison reserves, making the poisons he prepares more powerful.

And Gargamel lived up to Greem's expectations. By soaking it in a mysterious potion, he actually caused the silk sac to start spinning silk outwards. Although it had not vomited 1 meter long in ten days, after Gargamel's testing, it was found that this kind of foreign silk was not only silky and soft, and felt good to the touch, it was also extremely tough, and even ordinary demonized weapons were difficult to cut it.

In addition, this kind of strange silk can also absorb magic elements within 10 degrees and isolate mental power from detection.

This also means that if this kind of foreign silk is used to create a set of underwear, the wizard can gain 10 degrees of elemental resistance for nothing and become immune to the wizard's passive mental perception.

In this way, even if you encounter wizards whose mental power is higher than your own, the wearer does not have to worry about his mental state being spied on.

After all, active spiritual exploration is an act full of hostility among wizards! chapter;
