"That's right, you are already busy with the troubles in the Belusay family this time. Don't worry about this kind of thing, just think about it yourself."
Dmitry said no more.
"But you can go to the Magic Laboratory to take a look before returning to White Rose Manor. Miss Dandelai submitted an application to me before, and I granted her the right to use it for one month. She should be on the west side of the second floor of the main castle now. Laboratory Seven."
This actually surprised Ella a little. In her impression, it only took a week at most for a magic apprentice to apply for a trial laboratory.There seems to be no precedent for such a one-time grant for one month before.
This is probably also the change brought about by Dmitry's succession to the position of principal.
"It's my selfishness. When I was a magic apprentice many years ago. In order to get a magic laboratory, I even had to remodel my dormitory into a suitable look, and then used some means to scare away all my roommates." .”
"That kind of place is idle, and there is nothing wrong with lending it to interested students."
The old man showed a nostalgic expression, but based on Ella's understanding of him, that understatement of "some means" must be a serious violation of school rules.If his roommate at the time was still alive, he would certainly not miss that time.
"Okay, you go. I'm going to start the experiment, don't bother me if you have nothing to do."
The old man waved his hand, and the door to the principal's office closed on its own in front of Ella.
The silver-haired girl breathed a sigh of relief, turned and went downstairs to the laboratory that Dmitry had explained earlier.The reason why space-based methods were not used is that, firstly, it is not too far away from here, and secondly, if the apprentice is conducting magic experiments, it is likely to be interrupted by the fright she brings, causing unnecessary unexpected dangers .
Ten minutes later, Ella knocked on the door of Magic Lab No. 10.
"Please come in."
The sound came from behind the door, but it didn't seem to exist in the species space, but directly acted on the consciousness.
This is a small spell that is very popular among some scholars and wizards. It has modified the spell of the silent enchantment, so that people in the enchantment can use some small props to talk to those who want to talk without destroying the enchantment. Have a conversation.While not being disturbed by the outside world, important people can be invited in.
From this point of view, Ella was set as a VIP by the magic user from the very beginning.
She pushed them aside and walked in. What hit her face was a strong pungent smell. Ella could vaguely distinguish that it contained blood with good magic conductivity, antiseptic medicine, medical alcohol, and some unknown sources. Fishy smell.
Miss Dandelai, who has short brown hair, is wearing a mask used by wizards to isolate harmful gases and a white apprentice robe. She is busy with something in front of the alchemy table.
Ella restrained her breath and floated forward silently for a distance, observing the alchemy platform in front of her.
Unlike outside wizards who randomly set up a long table and start magic experiments with a consecration ceremony, in comparison, the instruments of Kraft School of Magic are quite complete.
For example, the alchemy table adopts a unified system. The solid copper tabletop is plated with a layer of mithril. The excellent magical affinity of mithril combined with some magic circles engraved in the pattern will at least make the experimenter's Concentration and experiment success rates increase by one to two percent.
The neat white cloth was already stained with some blood, and the magic apprentice was dissecting the head of a four-foot-long black venomous snake.
Ella noticed that the snake was still alive, but had been magically blocked from pain and placed under a deep anesthesia.
Dan Delai carefully opened the silver slender pliers, fixed the skull and bones on both sides of the snake with it, and implanted a small ball into its brain.
In the halo of magic, the ball was immediately covered with fine blood and flesh, and began to wriggle and wriggle.
The female apprentice breathed a sigh of relief, chanted healing magic and used consecrated salt water to repair the wound on the snake's skull, and wrapped the wound that had begun to heal with a bandage soaked in some potion.
After completing this step, Dandelai took off his bloody gloves, took a clean towel to dry the sweat on his head and took off his veil, showing a happy smile.
"Teacher Williams, you are finally back."
Ella shook her head.
"I won't stay in Kraft for too long this time, let's get into the topic and talk to me about the experiment you are doing."
As she said this, she recalled that when she was a student, it seemed that Professor Yousef had very little time to stay in Kraft.
When she was young, she even had a lot of resentment about this, but now this sentence has naturally appeared in her mouth.
Dan Delai's mood became obviously depressed, but she adjusted immediately, realizing that time was precious, and began to introduce the magic experiments she had done in the past week or so at a very fast speed.
"I did not give up my idea that day, but I followed your instructions and chose a relatively mild experimental method."
"My initial idea was to choose different creatures to sign a contract with a demon, and modify their body structure to implant more eyes. But this doesn't seem to have any effect, it is no more useful than signing a contract with a spider directly."
Although she said this, there was obvious joy and a little bit of pride on her face that was not annoying.
"But it seems like you've gained something?"
Ella asked with a smile.
"Yes, an accidental discovery allowed me to break the deadlock. Perhaps the Creator had set a natural position for this at the beginning, and I accidentally discovered the natural "eyes in the brain" of living things. "
"The eye in the brain?"
Ella has not conducted research on this topic. In her impression, she seems to have only briefly seen similar concepts in biological alchemy or magical biology.
"Yes, there are parts in the brains of creatures that resemble stone pine fruits. Its deconstruction is similar to eyes. I found in the data that there are many ancient mythological systems that have similar "eyes in the brain", just like the ancient The Eye of Osiris in Egypt and the Rod of Pine Cones are also known as the Celestial Eye in the Far East.But we all start off thinking of it as an abstraction, or visualized spiritual visions and meditations - but that's wrong, it's real. "
"After investigating some samples, I found that the "eyes in the brain" of most creatures show obvious signs of degeneration.For more than a week I've been trying to reactivate them, or implant the less degenerated eyes of the larvae in the skulls of adult creatures. "
The apprentice's expression became fanatical.
Chapter 80 students
"So you want to cultivate the eyes of the familiar's brain, and then share their senses and see the world in their eyes?"
Ella was a little stunned. Although this approach was a little gentler than Dan Delai's original proposal of "transforming one's own body to gain a broad vision", it was also a rather weird idea.
However, this unconstrained style is somewhat similar to that of Dalton and his son. It is no wonder that the principal specially granted her a month's time in the laboratory.
"It's not that I want it, Mr. Williams...it's not that simple that I want it, I've already done it."
"By stimulating the growth of the familiar's eye in the brain, I obtained a far wider field of vision than before and glimpsed a completely different world! Although it was only for a short moment, I still saw it, saw—"
She was emotional and tried to describe that experience, but found that the language was so feeble, and the transcendent experience was beyond words.
Dandelai opened his mouth, but he had forgotten what he had seen. He wanted to say something at this moment, but he just spat out a few fragmented words as if he was talking in a dream.
"I saw... the dead stars, the great wave sweeping over the world, I saw Him, and He was coming -"
Ella's pupils narrowed slightly. She had never thought that an ordinary student could pry into such a degree of secrets through an immature experiment.
She comforted Dandelai, making him calm down.
"What is he?"
The woman who was already calm began to tremble again, and a darkness as deep and vast as a starry sky was reflected in her pupils.
"He...I don't know, and I dare not say it."
Don't dare to say.
Through this description, Ella probably already understood the extent of that existence.Fortunately, Dandelei had a glimpse of the truth through the familiar's senses, otherwise she would probably go crazy due to the erosion caused by the huge knowledge.
Or, she had prepared before the experiment and let herself forget most of what she had spied. This could also explain why Dan Delai's previous logic and words were not natural enough.This is a very smart lady, at least she knows how to protect herself and strictly follows their school motto.
Ella sighed secretly, as expected, such a degree of secrecy is not so easy to obtain.She thinks that Dan Delai may have found a secret way to pry into the truth, but the result is still... No, this conclusion cannot be drawn yet, maybe it's just that the experiment is not perfect enough.
Ayla turned away from the dangerous subject for a moment to talk about the experiment itself.
"Let's talk about the specific experimental records. What attempts have you made so far?"
Dandelai regained her spirits, and she opened the long table that covered the cabinet on one side, where several large and small glass containers were placed in turn.Creatures of various shapes are floating in the yellowish liquid in the glass container. Although the body has undergone substantial mutations, it is still possible to vaguely recognize the creatures that were originally common.
Ella ran her fingers across the smooth surface of the glass jar, where a white dove floated.
It is blue and transparent below the neck but can vaguely recognize the appearance of a bird, but the head has been completely deformed.Bones, muscles and feathers were mixed into an indescribable brown strange substance. They were layered like scales, but bloomed above them, like an overripe pine cone.
There are three more white pigeons like this in the surrounding glass containers, but their sizes are getting smaller in turn, and the degree of mutation is also deepening accordingly.
And there are dozens of similar jars, large and small, filled with different creatures.
"I first used some common biological samples, such as mice or geckos, but the effect was not good. Too weak beings often cannot bear the burden brought by the eyes in the brain, and their bodies are not very adaptable to magic power .”
"So I turned my attention to creatures with some magical aptitude, such as white pigeons and toads. Their blood has a good affinity for magic power, and I have obtained some results because of this."
"They really have higher fitness and survival rates than ordinary biological samples. In repeated controlled experiments, I found that their larvae have higher fitness, which seems to be true for most organisms."
"The eye in the brain degenerates with age and eventually shrinks."
"I successfully signed a familiar contract with a six-month-old white pigeon and received powerful spiritual vision through its eyes, but this only lasted less than five seconds. It died because its power was exhausted. , and as a contractor of the familiar, I also suffered a certain amount of harm."
Ella noticed that Dendre's eyes were bloodshot and his face was a little pale, obviously he hadn't fully recovered yet.
"This time I chose a degenerated feathered snake, which is healthy and strong. It may be able to complete a complete transformation and have a complete eye in the brain."
As an ordinary student with no family behind him, it is already the limit for Dan Delai to get a feathered snake with thin blood.Resources and vision limited her thinking.
Ayla nodded, and quickly drew a symbol with her fingers in mid-air.Under the effect of magic, the Feathered Serpent on the alchemy table slowly floated up, and the wound on its head healed quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"The Quetzalcoatl is a good choice, but it's not enough..."
The healing magic itself is to accelerate the healing of wounds by stimulating the life force in the organism. The result of the sudden enhancement of the healing effect is that this feathered snake, which could have survived for about 30 years, has at most five or six years of life left.
"Mr. Williams."
Dandelai wanted to remind her that the vitality of the creature itself would also affect the results of the experiment, but she swallowed the rest of her words.A Kraftian professor would not be incapable of understanding such a simple truth.
Sure enough, the silver-haired girl snapped her fingers.Several floating gray-white light spots immediately appeared around her, and one after another got through the gaps in the feathered snake's scales.
The Feathered Serpent, which was originally under deep anesthesia, began to tremble violently. Its body quickly became thicker, and its two pairs of wings, which had degenerated to the size of a thumb, tore off the scales and spread out to the sides, reaching a length of half a meter.
The feathered snake trembled and screamed in pain, and its scales were pushed down from the inside out by something and fell off in large numbers.
The new scales came out mixed with blue-black blood, they were thicker and stronger, more like subspecies of flying dragons than snake scales.
At this time, the feathered snake's body had grown to twice its original size, appearing mighty and solemn.
"Is this still a feathered serpent?"
Dandelai murmured to herself. In her spiritual vision, the creature in front of her was filled with surging magic power. This was already a dangerous creature.The life force that had been consumed almost half became strangely full again.
A pattern-like crack gradually opened in the center of the poisonous snake's head. It was the newborn third eye, a pale white slender snake eye.
When it opened, the other two eyes of the feathered serpent also opened wide.
Three equal-sized eyes were arranged in a perfect glyph, and gray-white flames were burning in the eye sockets of the feathered serpent. It stood up and stretched its wings. The momentary pressure actually made the witch with short brown hair take a few steps back.
So the feathered serpent, which had completed its evolution, turned its attention to the silver-haired girl. In its eyes, the petite figure suddenly became blurry.The pale flame tornado swept upwards, with more than ten pairs of fire wings and slender twin tails looming.
Not only that, but the left hand of this huge phantom is a bit of pure darkness, and behind it are tens of thousands of dead souls submerged in the blood-colored sea.
The poisonous snake trembled all over, and slowly lowered its head close to the ground, showing an appearance of submission.
Its performance made Ella a little surprised, because she did not activate the flame essence in the opponent's body, because the girl was worried that the puppet-like creature would not be able to use the "eye in the brain", so the Feathered Serpent is still relying on herself consciousness and instinctive action.
The low-level feathered snakes with thin bloodlines are not intelligent creatures, which is why they are used by wizards as raw materials for some magic materials instead of common pets. At least in the records, they have never shown such a humane behavior .
Its surrender at this time is entirely due to the fear brought about by its keen perception.The opening of the eye in the brain endowed Feathered Serpent with powerful spiritual vision and great wisdom.
