Lord of Mysterious Wizard-Chapter 143 - : Mutated Undying Heart (Third Update!)
Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Mutated Undying Heart (Third Update!)
“Sigh!”
Tang Qi released a breath, loosening his grip on Blood Python One’s hand, withdrawing all exposed killing intent as well as the immense spiritual power, subduing it all.
On the surface, he looked just like an ordinary high school student.
For this reason, he even feigned an expression of discomfort, seemingly struggling against something.
Although he still stood out compared to the two who had fainted on the ground, this facade significantly lowered his presence.
At the very least, it was enough to make the Mutant Ronald disregard him as a threat, to believe he posed no danger.
As for the “Evil God’s attention,” Tang Qi didn’t think that a mere Mutated servant could draw the true Evil God’s notice. The meaning in Information Fragment One was most likely referring to a sliver of the Evil God’s Power paying attention, and that bestowed power seemed more like some automatic recognition program.
Any servant that met the requirements could receive the gift.
Just like before, when Tang Qi chose the perfect experimental product, that Crow God believer, he too, through that statue, had once acquired a bizarre and formidable state, but that surely had no relation to the Evil God itself; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easily countered and killed by Tang Qi.
Ronald was an “Undying,” his power definitely came from an ancestral artifact.
By a twist of fate, he, who was originally destined to be fertilizer, received the favor of a trace of the Evil God’s Power and leaped towards becoming truly Professional Level.
Tang Qi stayed precisely to witness Ronald’s process of becoming “Evil God’s Slave.”
Professional Level!
This was information that Tang Qi had been extremely curious about since entering the Mysterious Side.
Whether it was strange books like Monster Records or the internal pamphlets of the Ancient Castle Bureau, they all conveyed a message.
No matter the Profession, only by truly entering the Professional Level could one possess power beyond imagination.
Otherwise, one would just be cannon fodder.
If one had power similar to that of a Wild Wizard before the return of the Spiritual Tide, it indeed would have been possible to call the wind and summon the rain.
Unfortunately, as Ronald’s previous roar went: The great era has returned.
Not wanting to be reduced to cannon fodder, promotion to Professional Level was a must.
This was the reason Tang Qi took the risk.
He wanted to see, why is there such an enormous gap between the Professional Level and non-Professional Level?
And at this moment, Ronald indeed completely ignored Tang Qi, who, in his eyes, probably seemed no more than a bug that could easily be crushed.
After all, even Stanna, who held the Red Rhino, was not taken seriously by him after his transformation, let alone Tang Qi who seemed to only possess a bit of Extraordinary Power but appeared fragile as a Special Advisor.
Ronald ignored everything; he slowly knelt down, muttering under his breath, hands held high, his expression filled with fanatical zeal, as if welcoming something.
Tang Qi could see that Ronald was chanting a Spell, just like the Crow God believer had with the prayer from the idol.
But when Tang Qi tried to discern the name of that unknown Evil God through his lip movements,
Boom!
Tang Qi’s head once again suffered a blow like that from a heavy hammer, a kaleidoscope of things flashing before his eyes, some bizarre fragments passing by, twisted and chaotic, yet vaguely forming some words, igniting a strong urge within Tang Qi to chant them out loud.
“Hmph!”
With a sudden cold hum, Tang Qi called upon his spiritual power to extinguish the impulse.
He nearly fell for it.
He was not a believer of the Evil God, but had he chanted the name of the Evil God in that state of space just now, the consequences would have been dire, not as simple as chanting it in reality.
Buzz!
Eh?
As soon as Tang Qi regained his senses, he immediately noticed something different about the villa.
Every inch of space within view was completely filled with a bright red hue, and in the air, numerous twisted leeches were crawling, dense enough to make anyone with a fear of swarms wish for immediate death.
Suddenly, Tang Qi felt a tingling itch all over his body, and upon glancing down, sure enough, a multitude of leeches were trying to burrow into his skin.
In an instant, Tang Qi’s body was covered with dots of blood.
The leeches easily gnawed through Tang Qi’s skin, secreting a potent poison while voraciously swallowing his fresh blood.
Itching, dizziness, and an indescribable sense of pleasure surged up simultaneously.
He turned his head and saw Stanna and the Director lying on the ground, untouched and not suffering the same ordeal.
Tang Qi abruptly raised his head, and immediately, he saw Ronald kneeling on the ground in the center of the villa, revealing a sinister smile toward him.
A magnetic voice emanated from his mouth: “Do not worry, this is just a little safeguard to prevent you, this little insect, from causing trouble.”
“Speaking of which, how could I have obtained even a sliver of His blessings if not for your interference? As a token of gratitude, once my promotion is successful, I will prepare a very comfortable way of death for you. Believe me, you will certainly like it.”
Even having transformed into a monster, he still adhered to his noble demeanor.
Unfortunately, at this moment, Tang Qi’s attention was not on him at all.
Tang Qi’s gaze was entirely fixated on the space above Ronald’s head.
There, a vortex suddenly appeared, a crimson one, as if composed of blood.
Within the vortex was an unknown Curios wrapped in Blood Light.
It was slowly descending, and that vortex was actually the space stretched out by it.
When Tang Qi looked over, the surging ghost light was almost spilling out.
[Curios: Mutated Undying Heart.]
[State: Intact.]
[Information Fragment One: The Undying Ronald offered his faith and all he had to an unknown Evil God, earning the privilege to become Evil God’s Slave. Upon merging with the Undying Heart, he shall completely ascend to Professional Level.]
[Information Fragment Two: The Extraordinary Power that comes from the “Mysterious,” could result in True Creations or in Nihility. The process can be interrupted, but the Extraordinary Power cannot be taken away; if the ascension fails, the Extraordinary Power will return to the Mysterious.]
…
“Huff~”
Tang Qi’s breathing immediately became more rapid, not because of the bizarre leeches on his body, nor due to the heart that was about to reveal its true face.
But at this moment, Tang Qi finally understood that secret.
The secret of the ascension of Professional Level beings!
Originally, knowledge that was only held within large, era-spanning organizations like the Bright Church.
Why is there such a horrifying gap between those at Professional Level and those who are not?
Mysterious… Extraordinary Power…
This chapter is updat𝙚d by freeweɓnovel.cøm.
Two words emerged simultaneously in Tang Qi’s mind.
The so-called “Mysterious” perhaps is just a word coined for easier human understanding, describing it could be an Evil God, or some unknown space, or some other indescribable, strange existences…
And “Extraordinary Power,” summoned from the Mysterious, could be a True Creation, or it could be the power of Nihility, or an undetectable existence…
Different professions have different methods of ascension, but without exception, none can avoid them.
Whether one obtains “them” is a dividing line that could be described as insurmountable for the transcendent beings on the Mysterious Side.
Although there is only one sample, the Information Fragments do not deceive.
After Tang Qi understood all this, he still made no move, allowing the leeches to swallow his fresh blood, while his eyes conveyed “Anger” and “Reluctance,” perfectly fitting Ronald’s imagination at that moment.
Tang Qi was waiting, waiting for Ronald to complete his ascension.
“Since it can’t be taken away, then just fatten it up,” whispered Tang Qi to himself, audible to no one else.
