Wizard: I Can Refine Everything

Chapter 79: Chapter 79 Flesh Rule

Richard had no time for hesitation. Faced with the limits of spiritual power and the rules, Richard resolutely chose the rules.

At the moment he decided to refine, Richard felt as if a piece of his soul had been sliced off by someone, an indescribable emptiness filling his heart.

He felt as if something was missing. @@novelbin@@

With fuel provided, the Miracle Furnace began to operate.

The tentacle in Richard’s hand vanished instantly, reappearing within the furnace.

Richard wanted to observe the details of the refinement, but unfortunately, the furnace’s refining process was still as rapid as ever. In an instant, a ball of light with a blood-red luster undulated above the Miracle Furnace. The tentacle, seemingly stripped of its last essence, while its flesh still twitched, had thoroughly degenerated into a mundane object.

“Flesh Rule, I hope it’s worth the price.”

After absorbing the light ball, Richard immediately felt a profound and inscrutable power enter his body, and in that moment, he seemed to achieve enlightenment.

This was unlike absorbing skills; he had truly “comprehended” something.

Once the absorption was complete, Richard opened his eyes and lightly pressed against the wall beside him.

A muffled sound ensued, and Richard’s palm easily left an imprint on the wall.

Richard took out a Crystal Ball to test his current stats.

[Spiritual Power 38, Physique Forty-Five, Magic Power 380, Rating, Intermediate Apprentice]

“Still forty-five points, my physique hasn’t been enhanced,” Richard mused, considering his data. Under the effects of the Rebound Effect, Physique Enhancement Potions, and Adaptation Body training, Richard’s physique had reached forty-five points not long ago, thereby depleting his stock of Physique Enhancement Potions.

“But my strength has indeed been enhanced. And now it seems I can…”

With a thought, the muscles in Richard’s arm began to subtly shift, strands of muscle fibers interweaving to form a new muscle structure.

“Flesh Control? It must be more than just that.”

Richard took out two Magic Stones to replenish his Magic Power, then activated his Bloodline. This time, however, activating his Bloodline was different.

Richard discovered he could now control the transformation of his body’s Bloodline, where a typical Bloodline Transformation would involve the whole body changing, Richard could now choose to transform only parts of his body while keeping the rest unchanged.

Additionally, he could control the Black Scales that had emerged, fusing them together to form either a Dagger or a piece of Arm Armor.

“An amazing rule, if I could have a bit more, could I directly control cells, or even the Life Core?”

Richard’s mind burst with countless fantasies, but he quickly suppressed them.

The rules were still too far out of his reach; being fortunate enough to obtain even a sliver was a great luck.

After searching the basement, Richard found a notebook and several dozen Magic Stones in the insane Wizard’s Magic Pocket, but as for the Fine Steel Magic Wand, Richard didn’t even entertain the thought of selling it.

It was too crude; selling it would be an embarrassment to him.

Among the mad Wizard’s notes, Richard found records of an ancient spell that seemed capable of communicating with creatures from the Otherworld.

It was probably because of this spell that the Apprentice had managed to find the Blood-Red Master.

Back on the surface, Richard found Spencer and told him to pour oil into the underground hall and burn it before entering again.

“I’m doing this for your own good,” Richard said earnestly, patting Spencer’s shoulder.

Because of the battle between the mysterious Wizard and the World Master, the entire hall had turned into a sea of blood; all sorts of flesh and organs mixed together, a sight that would give even Richard nightmares for days.

After completing the task, Richard immediately took the airship back to the Academy and informed Jolod of the entire situation.

“World Master!” Jolod sprang up from his chair upon hearing Richard’s report.

He circled around Richard to inspect him and found that aside from a slight weakness in magic fluctuation, his student seemed unharmed. It was incredible that one could suffer so little damage after an encounter with a World Master.

After the examination, Jolod suddenly gave Richard a thumbs-up.

“Being able to meet a World Master and still live, my apprentice, you’re even more formidable than your teacher.”

Richard smiled sheepishly and then inquired about the mysterious wizard.

“This mysterious wizard you speak of must be a World Guardian of the Wizard World, that is, a Law Enforcement Wizard from the Judicial Department. The one you encountered surely holds a high position in the Judicial Department.”

“World Guardian?” Richard questioned with curiosity.

“They are the World Masters of the Wizard World. Within the Star Realm, there are many ways to become a Level 4 Creature, or a Great Wizard. Among the most common is to be acknowledged by the world, to be infused with the Power of World Origin, and become a World Guardian,” Jolod explained.

“World Masters made in this manner receive strengthened combat abilities within their guarded worlds, but once they leave those worlds, their combat power plummets.

It’s a trade-off.

Most of the World Masters we encounter in our conquest of other worlds are of this kind.”

“I see, no wonder I didn’t feel fear when I saw that wizard, but rather a sense of familiarity,” mused Richard.

Jolod sneered, “You found him amiable because you didn’t violate any laws. If you had broken the law, what you’d feel upon seeing him would be fear, not friendliness.”

Richard just laughed, not saying anything further.

But in his heart, Richard had resolved a major confusion.

It seemed that as a transmigrator, he had been recognized by the Wizard World.

Afterward, Richard submitted his mission report. The Academy praised Richard’s conduct highly and rewarded him with an additional 1,000 magic stones on top of the original task payout of 2,000 magic stones.

However, Richard remained quite calm about this.

1,000 magic stones, heh, I earn nearly that much in two months.

Upon returning to the Academy, Richard’s life returned to normal.

What was different now was that Richard suddenly began to exchange knowledge about Synthetic Beasts with Jolod.

The Flesh Rule had provided Richard with the ability of Flesh Control, which, although currently limited to his own body, significantly increased his combat capabilities when combined with the knowledge of muscle structure from Synthetic Beast knowledge.

Additionally, Richard felt that there was more to this ability than he was currently utilizing, and deeper secrets awaited his discovery.

Besides, Richard was also researching the tentacle of the World Master.

Fragments of a World Master’s body weren’t rare in the Wizard World; Great Wizards who battled in Otherworlds had killed countless World Masters, and even moderately wealthy wizards could purchase these unremarkable, rule-devoid fragments.

But for a Wizard Apprentice, this tentacle was an invaluable treasure.

From it, Richard obtained a kind of active flesh, which was the best material for creating and even enhancing Synthetic Beasts. Furthermore, this tentacle’s life energy was exceptionally tenacious. After receiving nutrient solution and magic power sustenance, the severed tentacle managed to survive in the laboratory, continuously producing more active flesh.

Though the output was tiny, the accumulated amount represented a considerable fortune.

With this active flesh and the Synthetic Beast knowledge acquired from Jolod, Richard planned a transformation scheme for the Death Crow Wuni.
