Wizard System: Dissecting a Mutated Monster From the Start - Chapter 16

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the dark space of consciousness, a strange blue rune was slowly being drawn.

As the saying went, the first step was the hardest to take. Without anyone to guide him, Edward could only explore the first inscription step by step like a pioneer.

With the help of his powerful spiritual power, the drawing of the inscription was not that difficult, but it still took some effort for Edward.

After about half an hour, Edward successfully drew his first inscription using his spiritual power that was as high as 30 points.

These inscriptions were difficult to understand and were unique to the Wizard World.

Edward felt the first inscription floating in his consciousness and heaved a sigh of relief.

According to the records given by the roaming wizard, a normal person with outstanding spiritual power would fail at least a hundred times before becoming an Apprentice Wizard.

In fact, the time taken was calculated according to the number of months.

Edward’s first success was attributed to the system’s analytical subsystem.

The system could analyze how to perform the most concise drawing sequence and how to control the spiritual power of the drawing. In this situation, if one was not careful, all their previous efforts would be wasted.

No one would dare to lower their attention on their spiritual power until the inscription was completed.

[System prompt: The host has completely drawn the first inscription. Detected that the spiritual power is undergoing a mutation. The spiritual power has increased by 0.8. The flow of the mysterious power in the vicinity has changed. It is being slowly absorbed by the host…]

[System prompt: Detected even smaller traces of mysterious power in the air. Speculation: The system’s detection ability has reached a higher level!]

Edward listened to the system prompt and felt the changes in his spiritual power.

Firstly, everything around him became extremely clear in Edward’s perception. He could even control the mysterious power floating in the air.

It seemed that the upper limit of the system’s growth was synchronized with him.

His spiritual perception had just increased, and the system’s detection had also changed accordingly.

Secondly, the darkness in Edward’s consciousness dissipated, replaced by a vast green grassland.

The inscription that had been completed floated in the air, emitting a blue light that belonged solely to it.

His scattered spiritual power was merging with this space of consciousness, using the inscription as a connection.

Immediately after, the dispersed spiritual power gathered into the inscription and emitted an even stronger light.

As it fused with his consciousness, under the conversion of the inscription, Edward successfully gained elemental perception that was unique to Wizards.

At this moment, he felt as if there was an additional connection between him and the world. He could even clearly sense the water element floating in the air.

However, being able to sense it did not mean that he could perfectly mobilize these natural elements.

He still lacked some special methods.

He needed a body that could control elements and also have elemental affinity, as well as some special incantations.

Those spells were the inscriptions that Edward drew.

Edward could not wait to finish drawing the nine basic inscriptions of the Apprentice Wizard that he had learned from the knowledge within the iron ball.

And now, there was only one thing left: Undergo Spirit Enlightenment!

After he succeeded in Spirit Enlightenment, he would be able to control the natural elements around him more meticulously, just like how he controlled his body.

After completing the connection, his spiritual power was gradually recovering.

Half a minute later, Edward took a deep breath. It was time for him to awaken his dual cultivation path.

“System, use the Wizard meditation technique as the blueprint and convert it into the path of a Blood Wizard!”

[System prompt: Analyzing the bloodline of the Beauty Snake using the Dark Wizard’s meditation technique. Requirements to become a Blood Wizard fulfilled.]

[Do you wish to undergo advancement?]

“Yes, start the advancement into a Blood Wizard!”

The moment he said that, Edward felt his Beauty Snake bloodline start to boil.

It was as if he was immersed in lava.

A burning sensation spread from his heart to his entire body. The transformation of his Beauty Snake bloodline had officially begun.

Edward could not help but frown at the burning sensation in his blood.

As a Gold Knight, this was the first time he felt so uncomfortable.

The bloodline transformed within his body and began to fuse with the inscription of the Wizard.

The inscription that was originally emitting a blue light was now turning blood-red.

The physical quality of his body was also constantly improving, but the growth of his spiritual power was negligible.

[System prompt: The bloodline of the Mutated Beauty Snake has been completely fused with the Wizard inscription. The body has been thoroughly examined, and no dangerous anomalies have been detected. The inscription compatibility is 100%]

Edward clenched his fists. The physical condition was beyond his expectations.

Boom!

With just a light punch, a powerful force swept up a gust of wind and created a hole in the stone wall in the hall.

And this… was merely the merging of the Beauty Snake’s bloodline. Right now, there was an even more powerful origin source of curses in his body.

He used it to awaken the special branch of wizardry: Curse Wizard!

He struck while the iron was hot. While the burning sensation in his body had yet to dissipate, Edward called out the system and prepared to fuse with the origin source of curses!

“System, begin fusing with the origin source of curses! Advance to a special branch of the Wizard!”

[System prompt: Origin source of curses is being used. The inscription and the origin source of curses are beginning to connect. Discovered abnormality, resolving in progress… Origin source of curses is beginning to fuse with the inscription…]

At this moment, the tattoo on Edward’s neck began to emit black mist.

Blinding black light flashed, and the tattoo began to spread again, almost covering half of Edward’s face.

His handsome face exuded a devilish aura!

The curse origin of the Snake of Curses began to fuse with the runes of the Wizard.

[System prompt: Detected the bloodline of the Beauty Snake and the source of curses on the inscription. Beginning fusion of the two. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the special trait of the Snake of Curses, constitution increased by 10. Successfully awakened the special branch of Wizardry: Cursed Wizard!]

[System prompt: Snake of Curses’ traits: Heat perception, aura concealment, scent analysis, snake scales, bloodline suppression, increased endurance…]

Black scales began to spread from the tattoo on his neck to cover Edward’s entire body.

The black scales on his body shone with a dazzling metallic luster. As the owner of the scales, Edward naturally knew the defensive power of the scales!

At this moment, his character panel was updated.
