The Witcher: From the Academy of Knights

quack!
In mid-air, Lal let out a cry, and then flew towards the green swamp again, hooked a corpse with his sharp claws, and was about to drag it to the shore.

However, at this moment.

In the green swamp that was already calm, a pair of vertical pupils slowly emerged. The hideous and huge body exuded a shocking sense of fear.

"not good!"

Sauron's expression changed, and without hesitation, he used the power of the Raven Spirit Rune to control Lal to abandon the corpse and fly directly into the sky.

Pfft!
The huge black crocodile emerged from the water and bit it fiercely. The body that was hooked by Lal before was instantly bitten into two pieces.

Fortunately, Lal flew into the sky in time.

"This guy……"

On the shore, Sauron's eyes flashed with astonishment. The magic crocodile that emerged from the depths of the green swamp seemed to be much more terrifying than the red-scaled crocodile.

In the swamp, a cold luster flashed in the pupils of the black magic crocodile.

"very dangerous!"

Sauron's heart jumped, and a throbbing flashed in his eyes. The threat posed by this black alligator was even stronger than that of the red-scaled crocodile.

In this era, the tide of magic is surging again.

Not only the wizards have become more powerful, but even those monsters and weirdnesses have mutated and evolved under the blessing of the magic tide.

In the green swamp, not only a red-scaled crocodile was born, but also a more terrifying black giant crocodile, but no one knew about it until now.

A chill rose from Sauron's back.

If I was careless just now and stepped into the green swamp, I am afraid that I have been attacked by this giant black crocodile now, and even if I survived, it would never be easy.

Click!
Just as Sauron was thinking, there was a sound of chewing suddenly from the green swamp, and he saw that giant black crocodile actually started to eat the corpse of the Crimson Scaled Crocodile.

Such a cruel scene made Sauron even more convinced of the threat of this giant black crocodile.

Immediately, without hesitation, he turned and left the green swamp.

Although there are still many spoils of war in the Green Swamp at this moment, for Sauron, the most important soul of the Beastmaster has already been obtained.

Therefore, he didn't have to fight to the death with that giant black crocodile.

After leaving the green swamp, Sauron came to the outskirts of the forest.

The black carriage stopped not far away, and the corpse puppet Phils sat there like a sculpture.

Sauron got into the carriage and left here quickly.

The soul of the beast king has been obtained, and Sauron has already satisfied the conditions of solidifying madness technique and boiling beast blood, so the next step is to complete the solidification of this witchcraft.

Ten days later, the Marsh Principality.

In a dark and cold cave, Sauron looked around, all the conditions were ready, and then the witchcraft could be solidified.

----------

With Sauron's thought, the data panel also appeared in front of his eyes.

After cultivating the black fire breathing method to the extreme, Sauron condensed the black scale rune.

Adding this rune, Sauron had exactly twelve beast-type runes.

"call!"

On the spot, Sauron took a deep breath, then stopped hesitating, and began to attack the realm of wizards.

He took out the witchcraft crystal and infused it with magic power.

With a flash of light, the cave was shrouded in a strange light, Sauron's eyes flickered, and twelve runes in the sea of ​​consciousness flickered at the same time.

Crow Spirit, Bull Power, Eagle Eye, Snake Venom!
Roar of the Wild Lion, Heart of the Sea, Wolf Walk, Bloodthirsty Bat!

The power of a red tiger, the charm of a fox, the power of a bear, and black scales!

Twelve beast-type runes lit up in Sauron's sea of ​​consciousness, and the power of various runes blessed Sauron at the same time.

In situ, Sauron looked forward.

The pottery jar was opened, and a strong smell of blood rushed to his face. Sauron stretched out his hand and smeared the blood of all beasts all over his body.

Not long after, Sauron, who was completely naked, had strange marks on his skin.

It looks like a native of the rainforest.

"Beast blood is boiling!"

Sauron uttered syllables lightly, and the traces painted by the blood of beasts on his body gradually emerged with strange light, as if they had turned into spells.

In an instant, Sauron was in a trance.

Vaguely, the surrounding world seemed to become unreal. Sauron looked around and found himself on a barren plain.

Roar!
The roar of wild beasts could be heard in the distance. Sauron looked over and saw an angry male lion standing on a high slope and roaring towards the sky.

Above the sky, a group of crows circled continuously.

In the depths of the wilderness, a pack of wolves is galloping, and a giant snake is swallowing snake letters, and its vertical pupils are shining brightly, full of danger and strange aura.

In situ, a pensive look appeared on Sauron's face.

Everything I've experienced so far is almost exactly the same as the scene in the witchcraft crystal that solidifies the madness formula and the beast's blood boils.

After the blood of beasts turned into spells on the surface of his body, Sauron seemed to turn into a wild beast, and his consciousness appeared on the wasteland.

However, Sauron knew very well that everything he had experienced was just an illusion.

Gradually, the surrounding world slowly melted like an oil painting. Sauron regained his consciousness and returned to the cave again.

There were bursts of scorching heat coming from his body, it was the blood of beasts exerting their effects.

"spiritualism!"

With a thought in Sauron's mind, the soul of the Red Scaled Crocodile was directly summoned.

Roar!
Even in the soul form, the Crimson Scaled Crocodile is still particularly ferocious, roaring in mid-air, and staring at Sauron viciously.

In situ, Sauron looked calm.

He just waved his hand casually, and grabbed the soul of the red-scaled crocodile, and then exerted force, the soul of the red-scaled crocodile suddenly let out a desperate wail.

Immediately afterwards, the Crimson Scaled Crocodile turned into a cloud of black mist.

Sauron took a deep breath, like an ancient ferocious beast, swallowed the Crimson Scaled Crocodile alive, and then his body began to twist.

The blood of beasts, the twelve beast runes, and the power of the soul of the red-scaled crocodile dragon were all twisted and entangled in Sauron's body.

Click!

Sauron's face was ferocious, his body was constantly twisting, his whole body was covered with dark brown scales, and two lumps of sarcoma-like things on his shoulders were constantly wriggling.

Gradually, the two lumps of sarcoma became bigger and bigger.

Snapped!
Suddenly, as the two groups of sarcoma exploded, Sauron also grew a pair of fleshy wings behind him, which looked disgusting and ferocious.

However, this is just the beginning.

The process of solidifying the madness technique-beast blood boiling is to transform oneself into a strange beast. With the fusion of the soul of Sauron with the power of the twelve runes, his body shape becomes more and more distorted.

I don't know how long it took.

In the cave, Sauron at this moment has already completely lost his human form, and he is like a deformed beast.

His whole body is covered with dark brown scales, his hands are as sharp as claws, and a pair of wings behind him spread out, as if he could fly into the sky in the next moment.

"What's wrong with me?"

Sensing the change in his own form, Sauron felt inexplicably terrified in his heart. He raised his hands that turned into sharp claws, and stroked his face.

Completely lost its human form.

Although Sauron had already known in the witchcraft crystal before, what changes would happen to the solidified madness technique - beast blood boiling.

However, everything that happened today still made Sauron a little unbearable.

"No, you must calm down!"

Sauron's eyes flickered, and he forcibly suppressed the throbbing in his heart. According to the records of the witchcraft crystal, he continued to solidify the witchcraft of boiling beast blood.

Roar!
Gradually, Sauron seemed to have completed his transformation, roaring wildly in the cave, and the terrifying sound echoed in the forest.

After a while, Sauron rushed out of the cave.

It didn't come out, but crawled out. Today's Sauron has already turned into a twisted beast, and the changes in his body made him even forget his walking skills.

The next moment, Sauron's wings fluttered.

The wings, like the wings of a dragon, rolled up a wave of fire with just one shake, and then, Sauron swept towards the sky like a giant beast.

In a moment, Sauron had crossed the forest and came to a lake.

Looking at the reflection in his hand, Sauron felt a throbbing in his heart.

"Success!"

But soon, Sauron calmed down. Although he looked very scary at the moment, it meant that he had succeeded.

Crazy Technique: Beast Blood Boiling!

Sauron suppressed the emotions in his heart, climbed onto a huge rock like a dragon beast, and let out a roar to vent his emotions.

Another few hours passed.

Perhaps because the power in his body was exhausted, Sauron suddenly fell from the rock, and his body gradually returned to the human form.

At this moment, Sauron felt as if he was exhausted.

"Is it the consequence of running out of magic power?"

Naked and curled up on the ground, Sauron had a thoughtful look on his face.

Swish!
At this time, there was a sudden sound not far away, and a gray wolf slowly appeared in the jungle, staring at Sauron with ferocious eyes.

It looked like it should be a lone wolf.

The guy who lost the clan's battle for the throne and was expelled from the wolf pack may not be the strongest, but he is definitely the most ferocious.

"Not so good!"

Looking at the lone wolf approaching in the distance, a wry smile appeared on Sauron's face. If it was normal, it might be easy for him to deal with this beast.

However, at the moment, I was exhausted.

Sauron felt that it was very difficult for him to move a finger, so he could only watch the gray wolf approaching him.

"correct!"

Suddenly, Sauron's heart moved, and he remembered the witchcraft he had just mastered.

Immediately, he had a thought.

As if the aura of the king of beasts emanated in an instant, Sauron was still in human form, but his eyes had transformed into a pair of vertical pupils.

In an instant, Gray Wolf was struck by lightning!

"Wow!"

The next moment, the gray wolf let out a howl, turned around and ran away with its tail between its legs.

Sauron breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, he also had a better understanding of the mad technique - beast blood boiling.

As a witchcraft condensed on the basis of beast-type runes, the most important feature of the mad technique-beast blood boiling is the transformation of form.

A wizard who masters the madness technique, beast blood boiling, can often possess power similar to blood witchcraft, just like Salman before, transforming into a half-human and half-animal form in battle.

10 minute is fleeting.

Sauron felt that his physical strength seemed to have recovered, so he struggled to get up and returned to the previous cave naked.

Taking out the potion that had been prepared earlier, Sauron recovered his state as quickly as possible.

After getting dressed, Sauron sat cross-legged.

----------

Opening the data panel again, Sauron's eyes shone brightly.

The twelve beast-type runes have disappeared, which means that they have been successfully fused together to become the mad spell-beast blood boiling.

After solidifying the madness technique and boiling beast blood, Sauron was successfully promoted to the realm of a wizard, and at the same time, he also became a great knight.

"It's better to talk than nothing."

Sauron chuckled. After becoming a wizard, the realm of knighthood has become dispensable for him.

Even if he was promoted to a great knight, there seemed to be nothing to be too happy about.

On the spot, Sauron shook his head.

Although he successfully solidified witchcraft and promoted to the realm of wizards, he also fell into a period of weakness because of this. This is something every wizard needs to go through.

Sauron can return to normal after a period of cultivation.

He wasn't too worried about this.

"Next, stay in the Swamp Principality."

A hint of thought appeared on Sauron's face. He had just been promoted to the realm of a wizard, and the best choice was to find a safe place to recover as soon as possible.

The Marsh Principality seems to be a good choice.

Although the tide of magic is raging now, and changes have occurred in various parts of the Lost Continent, but at present, at least there is no major disaster in the Principality of the Swamp.

After staying in the Swamp Principality, it won't take long for Sauron to recover. At that time, he will return to the Tar Principality as an official wizard.

Sauron did not forget that before he left the Duchy of Tal, the battle for the throne had not yet ended, and the game between the two organizations, the Tower of the Dead and the Star Luo Society, would determine the final fate of the Duchy of Tal.

Inside the cave, the corners of Sauron's lips were raised slightly.

He really wanted to know how the Tower of the Dead would face him when he returned to the Duchy of Tar as an official wizard. (end of this chapter)
