The Tower of Elements, Leo's Wizard Tower
On this day, Leo, holding the Godslaying Staff, stepped out of his wizard tower and walked towards the Fire Essence Flower with four wizarding books floating around him.
"What does the Fire Essence Flower taste like?" Looking at the Fire Essence Flower, Leo suddenly had this thought, and even unconsciously licked her lips without realizing it.
"Greetings, Lord Leo."
"Greetings, Lord Leo."
"Greetings, Lord Leo."
Leo entered the second level, and his land area reached 100 square kilometers. There were only a little over 4,000 first-level Gulu Beast, and they spent a lot of effort to plant Fire Essence Flower all over such a large area.
The annual income can reach 20 energy crystals, which, if cultivated well, is equivalent to half the subsidy amount of Third-Class Wizard Medal.
Although these energy crystals were given to Benji to raise the Gulu Beast below, it didn't stop Leo from liking the smell of the fields.
Even with his current strength and status, Leo still felt at peace looking at this land burning like flames.
Leo had recently encountered some setbacks in fusing with the Stone of Indestructibility, originally wanted to inspect the growth of the Fire Essence Flower to cheer himself up.
He discovered that although these Gulu Beast treated him with great respect, every single hair on their heads stood up like an antenna receiving alien signals as he walked by, and they looked at him with wary eyes.
Especially when he bent down to check the growth of the Fire Essence Flower, some of the Gulu Beast were so frightened that they turned around and ran away, as if they had encountered a natural enemy.
" Benji, what's going on?"
Leo's face looked like the bottom of a 28-inch pot, frighteningly black.
The attitude of these Gulu Beast is completely different from before; something must have happened that Leo doesn't know about.
"Sir, it's... it's..."
Benji had never seen Leo with such an expression before, and for a moment he stammered and couldn't say a word.
What is it?
Leo's face darkened further, and his tone was low and somber, like a dark cloud looming over the sky before a storm.
"It was Lady Yaoyao who said that Lord Leo's experiment went wrong and he will eat us. She told us to stay away from you and that things will be fine after a while."
Benji cautiously eyed Leo with its one eye, its fur standing on end, and its three tails jutting out straight, ready to run at any moment.
The other Gulu Beast heard about it from Yaoyao, but Benji personally witnessed Leo, with eyes gleaming green, devour the entire kitchen.
They're so hungry they'll eat stones, let alone them.
They say the meat of those Gulu Beast is pretty good too!!!
With this thought in mind, no matter how Benji looked at Leo, his eyes seemed to radiate a terrifying, hungry green light, and he kept retreating.
"I..."
Leo angrily tried to defend himself, but found himself speechless. Looking at the fearful eyes of Benji and the other Gulu Beast, was Leo really going to have to explain to them one by one?
Although Yaoyao did all of this, Leo really couldn't bring himself to be angry.
If these Gulu Beast appear when you are so hungry that you lose your mind, there is a high probability that you will catch them and eat them.
"Alright, you guys go ahead with your work."
Given the situation, Leo lost interest in inspecting the area and could only return to the Wizard Tower to quickly figure out the pattern of his hunger and find a permanent solution.
Don't come out before then, lest you frighten these precious Gulu Beast. With the entire Gulu Beast race's life evolution system about to be completed, if he were to be eaten at this crucial moment, Leo would slap himself several times.
Fortunately, the remaining blood of the Goddess of Darkness was given to Benji, and the already mature fusion experiment was also entrusted to him. Otherwise, Leo, in a state of hunger, would have eaten the few remaining corpses of the Goddess of Darkness immediately.
The corpse of Level-Four World Lord is a great tonic!
For the same volume, the energy contained in Level-Four World Lord is several thousand times that of an energy crystal.
Thinking of this, a wave of hunger washed over Leo, and unable to bear it, he grabbed a Fire Essence Flower and stuffed them into his mouth.
The best method now is to extract experimental samples from one's own body and culture them separately.
A small number of cells only require a certain amount of energy to function, and changes in these cells can reveal changes in one's own body.
As for the knowledge he acquired in exchange for the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard, Leo had already given it up.
The obviously abridged knowledge could only help Leo get this far; the rest Leo needed to figure out on his own.
Should we listen to Yaoyao and question Roderick? Don't be ridiculous. We can only accept our fate. Questioning Roderick is like questioning a level six Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard. How many guts does Leo have to do such a thing?
Even Level Four Stigmata Wizard couldn't do something like this!
This time, Leo extracted only ten cells and placed them in a culture dish. He then fed these ten cells in an unlimited supply and monitored their changes closely.
Under a high-powered microscope, ten cells extracted from Leo's body were observed absorbing so much energy that they seemed to be going crazy.
Leo never imagined that one day he would experience the feeling of madness through his own cells.
The Stone of Indestructibility, which occupied only 0.05% of the area, gradually grew larger as it absorbed energy.
With an unlimited energy supply, these ten cells completed the transformation from 0.05% to 0.7% of the total volume in just three days.
At this point, they stopped evolving, remaining unmoved even as Leo provided them with more energy.
His aloof demeanor and previous eager behavior were like the difference between a domineering CEO and a cute puppy.
"Could it be that my cell limit is 0.7%?"
Despite Leo stimulating these cells with different types of energy, the proportion of the Stone of Indestructibility within them remained unchanged, no longer absorbing any energy from the outside. In the end, Leo gave up.
The reason they stopped absorbing energy is probably not due to an energy problem, but rather a cellular problem.
To verify his hypothesis, Leo quickly extracted ten cells from a level one Gulu Beast, a level two Gulu Beast, and Benji, and cultured them in the same way.
The experimental results verified Leo's conjecture: the cells of the Level 1 Gulu Beast stopped moving when the Stone of Indestructibility occupied 0.07% of the cell volume.
Of the cells from that level-two Gulu Beast, the Stone of Indestructibility ultimately comprised 0.25%.
In Benji's cells, the Stone of Indestructibility finally occupied 1.1% before stopping.
Three levels, three experimental results.
Leo drew two conclusions.
First, the level of life determines the final proportion of the Stone of Indestructibility, which Leo speculates is due to the basic strengthening strength of cells.
The higher the level, the greater the base strength of the cell, and the higher the evolution strength of the Stone of Indestructibility. Levels one and two are still below 1%, but at level three, even a level three like Benji can break through 1%.
Leo suspected that forcibly breaking through this limitation of the Stone of Indestructibility would directly lead to the collapse of the cells, which would mean the death of the host.
Secondly, among beings of the same level, the stronger the life form, the wider the range of evolutionary enhancements that the Stone of Indestructibility can provide.
The level 2 Gulu Beast's enhancement stopped at 0.25%, while the level 2 Leo Cell's enhancement continued until it reached 0.7%.
The difference lies in the fact that Leo's physical strength is significantly greater than that of a level two Gulu Beast, allowing for a wider range of enhancement options with the Stone of Indestructibility.
If he were to increase his level to level six, Leo suspected that there was a high probability that his enhancement cap would exceed that of the Indestructible Body Stigmata Great Wizard.
This is his confidence in his own Elemental Body Refinement Wizard!
At this point in the experiment, Leo Xiquan understood that as long as he reached his own enhancement ratio according to his level, the Stone of Indestructibility would stop absorbing energy, and naturally, he would no longer feel hungry.
This is the only way to relieve the feeling of hunger!
Leo's current body enhancement rate is only 0.05%, which is 0.65% away from 0.7%.
The differences here may seem to lie after the decimal point, but it is extremely difficult to advance this tiny number by even 0.01%.
To achieve the current 0.05%, Leo has sacrificed so much; he even gave away the lab equipment.
160,000 energy crystals, tens of tons of food, half a kitchen, and nuclear fission that continued for more than ten days.
The combined energy of these numbers would make any Level Two Wizard dizzy, yet Leo only managed to enhance it by 0.05%.
Leo looked at the petri dish on the experimental table, forcibly enduring his hunger while also estimating the energy he would need to enhance himself to 0.7%.
If ten cells need that much nutrient solution, how many cells does his entire body have?
Forget it, let's not bother calculating it. It's just an astronomical figure anyway.
Now that I know that I can eliminate hunger by increasing my strength to 0.7%, I should just work towards that goal.
Just thinking about what a 0.7% enhancement ratio represents makes the hunger seem less intense.
If 1% represents 10,000 points of defense, then 0.7% is 7,000 points of defense.
Adding 7,000 points to his existing defense will bring Leo's defense to over 10,000, making it almost as high as his attack power.
Any level-two life form would probably shake its head and admit defeat upon seeing Leo like this.
With over 10,000 points of defense, how many Level Two Wizard could break through it?
Leo just stood there and let them hit him without fighting back; these Level Two Wizard couldn't hurt Leo.
Even more terrifying is that even if one could exceed that attack strength, after breaking through, one would still have to face Leo's shadow, which could absorb 50% of the damage...
Even if those Level Two Wizard were exhausted, it probably wouldn't damage Leo's skin!
He's an unyielding, indestructible tough pea!
