Whoosh!

Verdant Leaf Witch transformed into the body of Wise King of the Forest, waving its claws subconsciously, tearing the air with its sharp nails, making a "hissing" sound.

"Can you speak?" Tang Zheng's eyes lit up.

"Yes, Master, you can speak normally." Verdant Leaf Witch opened his mouth and made a sound very similar to Wise King of the Forest Hamsuke.

"Then can you use your original magic now?"

"No... can't release it."

Verdant Leaf Witch activated magic according to the normal process of releasing magic, but found that it couldn't be used at all, and his originally excited voice was a little more panicked.

"Dismiss Summoning Try transforming."

Under the gaze of Tang Zheng, Verdant Leaf Witch quickly transformed into Dismiss Summoning, activated the magic again and released it normally, with no difference in power from before.

Sure enough!

Tang Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

After transforming into a monster transformed by Magic Ritual, the transformer can use the power possessed by the monster, but cannot use his own power unless Dismiss Summoning transforms.

At first, when Forest Gnome transformed into "Petrifying Lizard" and Battle, the other party only used the skills of Petrifying Lizard.

Plus!

Forest Gnome and the several Demi-Human he experimented with before were unable to speak after transformation, but Verdant Leaf Witch could speak.

This probably has nothing to do with Verdant Leaf Witch, but to do with the transformed monster. Wise King of the Forest Hamsuke itself can speak, so it can also speak after its transformation.

"The ability to perfectly inherit the "monster" is indeed far beyond the skill effect of "Wild Shape"."

After various comparisons, Tang Zheng finally confirmed this matter. Looking at the surprised Verdant Leaf Witch, a bright light flashed in his eyes:

"It is precisely because of this "perfection" that the transformer cannot use his original power. To put it simply, after transforming, he completely becomes the monster."

Whether it is a good thing or a bad thing is difficult to judge.

"Hey, the level has indeed been improved!"

"Cuiye, test the strength after transformation." Tang Zheng raised his arm and crushed a Angel Summoning scroll of Fourth-Tier.

Bang!

Divine light blooms.

Holding a prototype shield, Observer Dominion, the strongest defensive player, was summoned and rushed towards Verdant Leaf Witch.

"Yes, Master."

Verdant Leaf Witch was also a little excited. He twisted his body and turned into Wise King of the Forest in an instant, colliding with Observer Dominion.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

A fierce collision exploded in the dense forest.

Verdant Leaf Witch was originally just Magic Caster, but now with the ability to transform, he can actually go head-to-head with Observer Dominion.

Ninjutsu·Detection!

Tang Zheng activated the detection ability of Ninjutsu and carefully observed Verdant Leaf Witch, his eyes became brighter and brighter.

28Lv!

"Hamsuke's level is above level 30, but Cuiye's current level after transformation is only level 28. It is related to the fact that Hamsuke's bones were taken away, resulting in physical loss."

"Maybe it has something to do with the upper limit of improvement." Tang Zheng once again confirmed an important piece of information through comparison with previous experiments.

An alternative level-up!

This is the second type currently discovered by Tang Zheng. The first type is to increase the level of Cursed Knight by swallowing the energy of Curse when obtaining [Cursed Knight].

In front of me, I use the ritual to devour the flesh and blood energy of monsters to improve the level of the transformer, but compared to the first type, the second type has more restrictions.

The biggest problem is the level of the monster.

Once you transform into a monster with the help of a ritual, you can only transform into this kind of monster forever. You can no longer transform into other monsters through rituals, which is like locking the upper limit.

In addition, there is a small limitation that is not a problem when compared with these two limitations.

When Tang Zheng first got "Magic Ritual", I was a little curious.

Why don't the Forest Gnome clan work together to hunt powerful monsters, and then let the clan members transform into monsters through rituals to increase their strength?

The tribe members must be allowed to hunt powerful monsters alone before they can transform through rituals.

This can be attributed to the ancient thinking of the Forest Gnome clan, but it is abnormal if it is not used even though it can enhance the strength of the entire clan.

The experiments passed by Tang Zheng have already drawn conclusions. It has to be said that some seemingly ancient and decadent ideas and rules do have meaning.

Because the transformed monster cannot exceed its own high level, otherwise its body will be exploded by the monster's own powerful power.

The Forest Gnome family highly values the use of personal strength to defeat powerful monsters.

Tang Zheng speculates that the level difference between monsters and shapeshifters cannot exceed 7 levels, which may be related to the ability of "Wild Shape".

The "Wild Shape" of Basic Class[Forest Priest] is not high in level, and the "Wild Shape" of [High Tier Forest Priest] should be able to increase the upper limit of the level difference.

"Convert monsters into energy absorption... If a large number of corpses can be converted into energy absorption at the same time, maybe we can develop another way to increase the level."

Tang Zheng looked at Verdant Leaf Witch and Observer Dominion's Battle in the distance, thinking silently in his heart.

He only has two types of Magic Ritual on hand, one is "Magic Boost Ritual" and the other is "Wild Shape Ritual". The two are completely unrelated and cannot be used as a reference.

Upper Water Month.

End of January.

Abelion Hills The dry and cold air has weakened a lot, and there is a little more warmth at noon.

As the end of the month approaches.

After several consecutive days of cloudy weather, a misty, cold drizzle finally began to fall.

In the flat area of winding hills, a castle stands on the ground with a silhouette that contrasts sharply with the surrounding environment.

The entire outer wall is made entirely of huge stones. The edges of the stones are uncarved and full of roughness and primitiveness. The appearance of the entire castle is also full of weirdness. Some places are too high and some are flat.

It gives people a strange and weird style.

At this moment.

On the gravel ground outside the castle.

Lizardman Crusch Lulu walked carefully to the center of the familiar "Magic Boost Ritual".

This is their Lizardman Clan, the strong Great Ritual inherited from the legendary Lizardman Hero, which is their Lizardman Clan trump card.

Nowadays we see the skillful arrangement and use of human beings.

"Alas." Lizardman Crusch Lulu sighed softly in his heart, feeling a sense of melancholy and helplessness.

"Let's get started."

"Yes!"

Lizardman Crusch Lulu quickly suppressed the emotions in his heart and spoke respectfully.

Wow!

Magic Ritual starts.

Tang Zheng stood inside Magic Ritual, mobilizing the magic power in his body to inject it into the magic circle.

"Fourth-Tier Magic--Cloud Operation!"

Lizardman Crusch Lulu raised his arms and pointed them high at the sky. His white fine-scaled cheeks were unusually serious. He activated the magic according to the information recorded by Chief Priest.

The magic circle began to emit light, and a powerful magic wave in Lizardman Crusch Lulu's perception was released from its body.

In an instant!

A large amount of magic power was extracted from her body like water in just one breath.

Lizardman Crusch Lulu felt the magic power in his body being drained out of his body in one breath, a feeling of weakness and suffocation poured into his chest, his vision turned black, and he seemed about to faint.

Buzz--

The moment before his magic power was drained and he was about to faint,

A mouthful of Terror was like a torrent of magic power, pouring into her body along the magic circle.

"Ah--"

Lizardman Crusch Lulu subconsciously let out a groan-like hum, and raised its slender white tail.

She had never felt such a powerful and domineering power. The powerful magic filled her body, quickly filling the weakness she had just taken away.

Lizardman Crusch Lulu felt as if he was surrounded by the power of powerful magic, and a sense of security that he had never felt before poured into his heart.

"Cloud Operation"!

Magic activates.

Invisible power was released from Lizardman Crusch Lulu's arms, and poured into the clouds in the sky in the blink of an eye.

The cold drizzle began to stop.

The dark clouds over the castle vibrated and spread like waves, and gradually the black clouds in the gloomy sky dispersed, and the light of Sun Anglerfish shone through the holes where the dark clouds dispersed.

The warm and bright Sunlight was projected on Tang Zheng and Lizardman Crusch Lulu below like a beam of light, and then gradually expanded its scope to wrap around the entire castle, and continued to spread outside.

Magic power continues to be consumed--!

Lizardman Crusch Lulu Even with the magic injection of Tang Zheng, waves of weakness still surged through the body, making the body stagger a little.

"Continue to expand the scope." Tang Zheng's cold voice came.

"Yes!"

Lizardman Crusch Lulu gritted his teeth and persisted.

As the magic continued to be activated, the clouds in the sky spread wider and wider, until they spread to an area the size of a small town, and then completely stopped and could no longer spread.

"It seems that this is the maximum range."

Tang Zheng stared at the sky, which was still covered by Jet Black's dark clouds. Only the sky in the area where they were located was cloudless, shining with sunlight.

From other perspectives, it looks amazing.

"Control Weather magic, I thought it was the same as normal magic, but I didn't expect it to be a type that continuously consumes magic power."

Tang Zheng stopped injecting magic power, Magic Ritual also stopped, and the shaking magic power completely dissipated and stabilized.

Lizardman Crusch Lulu's body softened and he lay on the ground, breathing rapidly. "Huh, uh~"

"Thank you for your hard work."

Tang Zheng glanced at the figure lying on the ground, spoke lightly, the red mage robe swayed, and turned around to return to the castle.

Lizardman Crusch Lulu raised his head slightly, looking forward with his long eyelashes, and the back of Tang Zheng was reflected in his red pupils.

Snap, snap!

The white tail slapped the ground unconsciously, making a gentle sound.

In the process of entering the castle.

Tang Zheng had a thought in his mind and consumed one Skill Points.

[Skill Points:65→64]

After mastering the fourth magic-receiving "Cloud Operation", the next step is "Climate Manipulation" who mastered Sixth-Tier with the help of "Magic Boost".

Just from the name of the magic, you can feel the difference between the two Control Weather series magic. One can only control the cloud.

One can control weather and meteorological changes on a large scale.

In addition to the magic of these two Control Weather series, the more Advanced Tier is Super-Tier Magic"Change the World".

It can completely change the site climate of an entire region, and the impact may even be lasting.

It can also be used to eliminate the special negative effects of some special places and create a climate environment that is beneficial to you.

Inside the castle.

White Mist Witch, who had been waiting for a long time, saw Tang Zheng walking in. He walked forward with a smile, his eyes full of admiration.

"As expected of the master, you can even change the weather. It's really amazing." White Mist Witch started excitedly.

Tang Zheng shook his head slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly. "Remember, it is Lizardman Crusch Lulu who controls the dark clouds to change the sky, not me, not now and not in the future."

"Weather manipulation magic" is the magical power of Divine System.

The identity he is currently pretending to be is Arcane System, a powerful spell caster. Naturally, it is impossible for him to use the power of Divine System.

"Hehe, I understand." White Mist Witch said.

The plan went better than expected.

Unexpectedly, Lizardman Crusch Lulu could actually use Magic Boost's method to use "Cloud Operation". Resurrecting it was a good move.

"There's no need for plan B now." This thought flashed through Tang Zheng's mind, and he asked White Mist Witch: "How's it going over there?"

White Mist Witch said excitedly, "The master is really awesome. Someone over there Holy Kingdom has already contacted us secretly."
