Chen Hao reached out his right hand and touched the red jade, then gripped it tightly. The warrior's mark on the back of his right hand began to glow brightly after touching the jade.
An astonishing heat surged into his palm, and the red jade continuously transmitted magic into his hand, as if some being was whispering in Chen Hao's soul through this connection.
O Healer, the master of life, are you thirsting for me?
I need your strength; give me everything you have!
Chen Hao gathered power with his own soul and used the consciousness within his soul to answer the consciousness within Bao Yu.
【Of course you can. But before that, let me ask you, from another world: If this world were to face danger, would you be willing to save it?】
I will absolutely not stand idly by in the face of this evil. Whether someone wants to destroy the world or enslave all life in this world through despicable means, they will have to get past me first if they want to do any of that!
【Then, I will lend you this power! I hope you will use it well!】
The magic flowing into his body from the red gem began to stir, resonating with the power of the [Hero]. Chen Hao felt his heartbeat gradually become more intense, and his whole body began to feel hot. However, the intense heat did not make him feel irritable; on the contrary, it felt very comfortable.
What do you seek?
What I seek is everything that governs all life! Heal the lives I cannot reach! Come! Become what I desire!
Accompanied by the cry of the soul, Baoyu's consciousness seemed to begin to overlap with the soul.
The red jade tightly held in Chen Hao's hand shone even more intensely, then shattered into fragments, becoming particles that gradually coalesced into a shape.
It read Chen Hao's thoughts and memories from their interconnected souls and transformed them into the form Chen Hao desired.
The intense light faded, and the reborn divine armor and weapons finally revealed their current form.
This is a walking stick, no, more accurately, a snake stick. The stick itself is simple and unadorned, like a tree branch or stick. A snake-like decoration is wrapped around the entire stick. The snake's head is attached to the top of the stick, holding a green gem in its mouth, and its eyes also emit a faint green light.
From this day forward, I will serve as the weapon of the Healer, until your death, which will also be the day our contract ends. So, undying hero, listen carefully: I am now called the Staff of Ashipis, and I will be your eternal companion.
"Yes, I've got it. Ashippis the Staff, from now on we'll fight side by side, forever."
The Staff of Asibias did not respond to Chen Hao's words again, because its work was over after the contract was completed. All it needed to do now was to obediently enter a state of silence and be a tool without emotions.
"Ahibith the Staff? You didn't read my memories to give yourself such a name, did you?"
Chen Hao chuckled as he examined the staff in his hand. The feel of the staff was almost exactly the same as Freya's staff, Vanargand. Although it was only a single branch, it also carried a vibrant life force. This was formed from the branches of the World Tree, a magic that could amplify all attributes, including healing magic.
The serpent coiled around the staff is exquisitely detailed and lifelike. Each tiny scale is arranged very tightly, making it very smooth to the touch. You can even feel that it exudes a sense of life. It is not an inanimate object as decoration, but a living creature that is only unable to move as a tool.
The Staff of the Serpent is a symbol of medicine in the world Chen Hao lived in before his transmigration. It originated from various myths and legends, including the Bible, Greek mythology, and Roman mythology. There are two types: one with two snakes wrapped around it and the other with one snake wrapped around it.
Among them, the staff with two snakes entwined on top also has two wings, which is derived from the staff of Hermes, the messenger of the gods in Greek mythology.
The single snake entwined around a staff is the main symbol of Asclepius Alchian, the Roman god of healing.
The staff in Chen Hao's hand, named after Ashippis, is naturally a single-serpent staff.
The snake symbolizes mystery, wisdom, the origin and transformation of life, restoration and renewal. It also represents the ambivalent and contradictory nature of medicine, which can both help and harm.
The staff symbolizes power. As a wooden stick, it also represents the spine of the human body, which is the location of the central channel. The snake coiled around it is like the Kundalini energy rising along the central channel, moving upward in a double helix shape. This double helix shape of Kundalini energy activity is also very similar to the structure of human DNA molecules.
The metaphor perfectly matches his healing magic, and as a wand, it is also very suitable for him as a support magic class healer. That's why Chen Hao chose to transform his divine weapon into its current form.
The Staff of Asipis also responded to Chen Hao's expectations. Its skill was very simple and straightforward: [Recovery Magic Amplification]. It elevated the previously difficult-to-develop and bottlenecked recovery magic to a new level, surpassing its original limits and breaking its original restrictions. This allowed recovery magic to truly govern all aspects of life and break through the original limitation that required physical touch to activate, enabling it to heal targets that were previously untouchable.
"Let's try to see if the original idea can be realized first."
【Improvement】
Chen Hao stared at the staff in his hand. A green light of healing magic emanated from the green gem held in the snake's mouth, enveloping the entire staff. The staff, possessing a life force, was also within the range of healing. Its shape changed under the light, rapidly elongating before the light dissipated and it transformed into a wooden spear with a single snake coiled around it. Although made of wood, the spear's blade was incredibly sharp, and since it was made from the trunk of a World Tree branch, there was no need to worry about it being damaged.
"Excellent, perfect design. Isn't this thing much more useful than a single-form weapon?"
Chen Hao was very satisfied with his design. When designing the weapon, he had considered making it a living weapon so that it could be reshaped by magic. The Staff of Ashbis did not disappoint him. As the light continued to flash, the Staff of Ashbis transformed from a spear into a knife, a sword, then a bow, a whip, a rifle, and other weapons of various shapes.
"With this, that idea should also be able to be realized."
After restoring the Staff of Ahibis to its cane form, Chen Hao took a deep breath and recalled his previous idea. Originally, he couldn't do it because of the level and precision of the restoration magic, but now, with the blessing of the Staff of Ahibis, he should be able to give it a try.
"【Heal】".
At that moment, the light of restorative magic enveloped his entire body.
