Chapter 675 (1/2)

In a general sense, Sui Xiong was not a mad scientist. But this did not mean that when carrying out research, especially when it came to biological research, that he would use gentle means.

On the contrary, because he could ensure that the gnome tribal chief would never die while being put under study, so his research methods… if a video was recorded and posted onto Earth’s network, it would definitely evoke great rage from a large number of animal activists, based on the assumption that gnomes were considered animals.

Such research was very effective. Just a dozen days or so later, he had carried out a thorough study and gained a complete understanding of the gnome tribal chief’s blood and ability. Finally, Sui Xiong created the spell that he greatly desired.

It was just that the spell was slightly different from what he originally had in mind.

The effect of this spell was what he called “Megamorph.” It was not a spell ability, but rather, a blood ability. In other words, to execute this ability, one only required a healthy and strong body and not powerful and strong magic.

According to Sui Xiong’s speculation, a body that was probably close to the level of the ordinary people’s so-called “ironman” would be required in order to put up with the pressure of this spell. This almost meant that in general, one must almost be at the advanced close combat profession or reach up to the level of an advanced paladin to be able to have such a body.

As for mages… they could forget about it since even the Legendary Masters might not be able to have such strong physique. It might only be possible for the wizards.

Oh, it was possible for the mages too. For example, mages like the “Magic Bomber,” who placed extreme emphasis on physical exercise. The strength of the bodies of these professional battle mages was not the least bit inferior to paladins of the same rank, so they were certainly able to meet the requirement of this spell too.

But no matter what, this ability was ultimately, much too inclined towards the physical aspect, so it was not suitable for use as a spell. So after some consideration, Sui Xiong finally decided to confer it to his clergymen as an ability of a sacred warrior.

As for the name, he would name it “God’s Power.”

Strictly speaking, Sacred Warriors could also be considered spellcasters because they could also use the divine spells of priests—though the quantity and prowess were greatly reduced, at least it was something. Other than the compact version of divine spells of the priests, the Sacred Warriors could also use some unique abilities. For example, some Sacred Warriors could use their own magic to guide positive energy and generate powerful healing spells. This was known as the “Holy Healing.” Some Sacred Warriors could combine their magic and belief to generate powerful weapons or defense. This was known as the “Holy Weapon” or “Holy Shield.” There were also Sacred Warriors who could use magic to guide negative energy and generate a deadly impact that could sweep up an entire region… all kinds of them. So even if one more type like “Megamorph” was added, it might not necessarily be that eye-catching.

After Sui Xiong completed this spell, the first people he contacted were the Sacred Warriors at Dahl Hill.

It just so happened that they were just done with an expedition too. This time, the target of their expedition was a group of ferocious, wild boars.

Wild boars were basically ordinary beasts. Even if their numbers were slightly more than usual, it would only take a seasoned hunter with a few soldiers to tackle them. But if there was a magic beast known as the “King of Wild Boars” among them, there would be an earth-shattering change to the combat power of this group of wild boars. The King of Wild Boars was not only ferocious and formidable in its own right, but it was also able to use its own magic without affecting those akin to them. This would cause a dissimilation of the ordinary wild boars where they would grow much bigger and become much stronger. If a situation dragged on for too long, it might even cause these wild boars to develop brutality, where they would be labeled with a notorious name of “Brutal Wild Boars.”

Just how scary could the Brutal Wild Boars be? Just two points would be enough to make people understand the severity of the problem:

First, the biggest one of these guys could be up to three times the size of an ordinary wild boar. It was not three times the size of an entire wild boar, but rather, only three times its height!

Second, even if they were severely injured to the brink of death, their movements were still as agile as when they were in a healthy state. Their movements would not be affected at all.

In the face of such a scary character, even if there was only one, it would still require a team of skilled adventurers to be able to deal with it. If there was a group of them… even the regular army would have no choice but to back off.
