Chapter 31 This damn physical condition
It’s been a whole month since I started school.
The new apprentices had not seen the sun for a whole month. Even Duke, who was the darkest, began to turn pale.
Not to mention Thor.
He spent all day studying and dealing with corpses. His face became as pale as a dead person, with two dark circles under his eyes.
You can pretend to be a ghost in the middle of the night without any makeup.
He has skipped public classes for three consecutive days.
If the morgue was not closed to the public at night, he would have stayed inside and not come out.
But today, his research came to a halt, so he came out to look for ideas.
"Green's Understanding of Witch Body Transformation" records four or five transformation ideas, but there is no specific information about what materials to use and how to transform them.
Come to think of it, such knowledge cannot be shown to anyone casually.
It is either someone's trump card or the inheritance of a certain force.
The book also said that even with mature ideas for witch body transformation, there is a high probability of death.
If we want to find a completely new transformation method, there will be no hope without sacrificing hundreds or thousands of lives.
The several second-level apprentices that Thor knew must have undergone wizard body transformation, but the one with whom he had the "best" relationship was still Senior Mark.
When Saul arrived at the laboratory, there were senior Mark and Angela inside, but Duke was nowhere to be seen.
Angela saw Thor and smiled awkwardly.
Saul nodded in response, but unexpectedly Angela seemed to be startled, her hands trembled, and she almost dropped the book in her hand.
The two of them just nodded to each other as they met, and Thor walked to senior Mark who was at the back of the laboratory.
The latter seemed to be doing some experiment, or perhaps cooking, as he nonchalantly put things into the crucible and stirred it with a wooden spatula.
Thor stood three meters away and observed for a while. He could only sigh that as a student majoring in dark elements, the materials put into the crucible looked so gloomy.
After putting in the last piece of something that looked like hair or kelp, Mark covered it with the transparent glass lid and turned down the fire under the crucible.
He tilted his head and smiled as he greeted Thor, "I haven't seen you for a few days. You've made a lot of progress."
"Senior Mark." Thor stepped forward, "I have a few questions to ask you."
"Oh?" Mark took off his gloves nonchalantly and threw them into the trash can at his feet. "You have the magic crystal?"
"Um."
"What kind of thing?"
"Witch body..." Thor said only two words and stopped.
Mark paused, looked up and said to Angela in the distance: “Angela, you go back first today.”
Angela said nothing, picked up her book and ran out, closing the laboratory door tightly.
"Do you really intend to undergo a transformation of your wizard body? This is usually an area that only second-level apprentices are involved in."
"I took the test, and my magic power is only 4. If I don't undergo the witch body transformation, Teacher Kaz will not judge me as passing the test in three months."
After a month of meditation, Thor's magic power only increased by 1 joule. At this rate, it would take another six months to reach 10 joules.
But he only has two months left.
"Hmm..." Mark held his chin up, "Actually, since the instructor has already given you the job of the morgue, he probably won't be so strict anymore."
"But the instructor never said anything about changing the test content." Thor didn't want to take the risk.
Although hardcover books can issue death warnings, they often only pop up to show their presence when a life-and-death crisis is imminent.
If you are in a desperate situation and no matter what choice you make, you will die, then it will be useless even if a hardcover book pops out.
Like the night Thor nearly died in the lab.
If Fan Da had not appeared, Thor would not have escaped death.
Although the process was tragic, it also made Thor understand a truth.
Even if you are in a desperate situation, there is still a glimmer of hope, so your own efforts are still very important.
If Thor had not insisted on saving himself at that time, he might not have waited for Fan Da to pass by.
"There are other ways to increase the magic power to 10 joules."
"But senior," Thor spread his hands, "I don't have that much money, nor enough credits, and most importantly, I don't have the time."
Mark touched his chin, "It seems that you have made up your mind. So..."
He held out his hand to Thor, "2 credits, no magic crystals accepted."
The 3 credits I just received...
Thor exhaled, "Deal, do you want to go to the registration office first?"
Mark took his hand back, "If it was someone else, then of course, but since it's you, I can give you credit for half an hour."
Half an hour?
In other words, twenty days of hard work in exchange for half an hour of knowledge.
Mark sat down, "I remember you once copied a book about witch body transformation, so you should have some knowledge about witch body transformation. Now, do you have any ideas about the transformation of your own body?"
"The cheapest and most effective material I have right now is corpse material. So my transformation plan is to extract the parts of these materials that can effectively improve elemental perception and magic power."
Mark laughed, "No wonder you look more and more like a dead person now."
He said in a slightly more serious tone, sitting up straight, "The fact that you were chosen to work in the morgue shows that you are sensitive to spirits. If you use corpse materials to transform yourself, do you know what will happen?"
Thor's eyes widened.
"You will easily run into weird things, and those ghosts will be happy to come to you."
Is it easy to see ghosts? "Are there many ghosts in the wizard tower?"
"Are you scared? Haha..." Mark looked at Thor's hesitation and answered with a smile, "Not many, and most of them have various restrictions. Because the ghosts in the wizard tower are basically created by wizards and high-level wizard apprentices using certain witchcraft. But even so, you may accidentally fall into various troubles. Most ghosts are lonely. They will desperately look for ordinary people who can see and hear them but are not dangerous."
"I understand. As long as I can become stronger, I can fight against ghosts." Thor raised his fist, one of his bony hands was so conspicuous.
Mark was not pleased with the boy's little courage, and he gave Thor one last warning.
"Always keep your mind in awe, Thor. Fear comes from the unknown. Terror is born from the unknown. Only the unknown is endless."
After the warning, he did not persuade Thor any further, but began to explain the part of the corpse material that was suitable for witch body transformation.
Because he couldn't tell Sol about the existing knowledge of witch body transformation - Mark didn't know anything else, and Sol couldn't afford it - he emphasized some precautions, such as which types of materials couldn't be used together, otherwise something would definitely go wrong; and which reactions in the experiment might mean a life-threatening situation.
Finally, Mark recommended two more material bodies - skin and bone.
These two types are large in size and easier to engrave runes on, which helps Thor control them and is also safer.
As for materials like brains and eyes, Thor had better not touch them. Generally speaking, it would be difficult to adapt to them without the strength of a third-class apprentice.
"Like me..." Mark raised his right hand, and a crack appeared on the palm of his hand. A bright red tongue, more than one meter long, stretched out from it. It stretched in front of Thor, as if wanting to lick him.
"I spent a lot of money to buy a witch body transformation formula with a high success rate in the tower, and then combined it with my own physique to transform it. And at that time, I was already a second-level apprentice."
