Chapter 297 003. Spellcaster Potential

Leo Dureto went back to his dilapidated house, casually threw the commodities he snatched from the young men who came back from the city today on the table, and immediately lay lazily on the bed, leaning on the With bare walls, he squinted his eyes and rested comfortably.

"Tsk, these descendants of self-cultivating farmers with land and fields, Xisha tangerine and snake fruit, all of them are college products that enhance brain power. Do you really think that as long as you do the questions meticulously, you will be able to enter the college?"

Leo curled his lips, rummaged through the things in his pocket, and mocked the delusion of these young people, but he was actually very sad.

If his parents didn't die early, and he wouldn't use this method to rob other people's supplies, who wouldn't want to get rid of the backwaters of Lanju Village?
It is already the interstellar age, and no young people are still willing to live in this kind of rural countryside under the temptation of the universe. Those noble mages often advertise: go to the Magic Academy, get a diploma and serve in the fleet for two years , you can become a social elite, leading a high income of 400 silver per month, and you can go to any city you like to settle down and buy a house.

The villagers of Lanju Village are quite aware of such generous welfare benefits.

Their ancestors were laborers who worked and served on this educational planet. Many of them changed their destiny through reading, and the most important thing is that through studying, they changed the status of themselves and their families. From a mere 30 silver a month Pure labor, become a battle mage or a monk bureaucrat.

Leo Duretto was full of jealousy towards young people from his hometown. His parents died early, and his family's land was sold to the government at a low price by his relatives very early. In a fit of anger, he stopped communicating with his relatives and set up his own family.

Over the years, Leo has not been idle. He has a good physique and is quite strong for the younger generation, but his appearance is somewhat intimidating, with triangular eyes hanging from his forehead and straw-like messy blond hair. In terms of his burly physique, he is exactly the barbarian recorded in ancient history.

Naturally, such an appearance is not easy to make a living, and he can get along only by sneaking around and occasionally doing odd jobs.

Just when Leo was actively developing his side business into a homepage, his peers had already begun to actively prepare for the exam, taking more than three magic aptitude tests.

It is different from the demonization and delusions of people in the past about the civilization of the magic side, thinking that they are a kind of retro monarchy rule-in fact, the civilization of the magic side is very accurate in the selection of talents, because the magic technology and magic workshop system started very early , the civilization of the Crystal Tower is a typical parliamentary politics, from the factory to the front line, from the pioneering team to the civilian group, there is always a thirst for knowledge for all kinds of spellcasters.

Even, it is more difficult for the civilization on the magic side to form aristocratic families.

The fundamental reason is that the caster's potential will degenerate.

Unless it is an extremely advanced magical creature, such as dragons and elves, in the case of ordinary creature populations, usually two generations will exhaust the potential of the caster, and the next time it appears, it may be seven or eight generations. later.

The problem is that dragons and elves don't even bother to join an unrecognized civilization like yours. You can leave some of their descendants, but even so, the caster's bloodline will not change much.

But on the other hand, the number of innate spellcasters is small, which means that in the magic-side civilization, acquired spellcasters account for a huge proportion, and even turn against customers, occupying the political stage and gaining the right to speak.

The best way to train spellcasters is education, not one of them.

Intelligence is the stepping stone to step into the magic world. Leo’s peers read at night under the urging of their parents since they were young. With a higher level of intelligence, one must be able to understand those complicated magic textbooks.

The descendants of laborers like them have provided a lot of convenience for the staff and students of Baizhuxing all the year round, so Crystal Civilization still gave a lot of discounts. An adult villager can take the "Magic Qualification Examination" at least five times. Since then, he has left his status as a farmer and has more choices as a 'magic apprentice'.

Those who are young can go to study, go to the magic academy for further study, and once they graduate, they will be formal mages with high income and status.

If you are older, you can also work in a magic workshop, and you will be able to obtain the qualification of a formal mage ten years later, but you still need to take some continuing education exams to improve your academic level.

The content of the exam is actually not complicated, the book has been given out long ago, but the most fundamental problem is - if the level of intelligence is not up to the standard, there is no qualification to understand the content between the lines.

A mage is not a profession with low barriers to entry. If you can't even read the introductory textbooks, you can basically bid farewell to the path of a spellcaster.

If you spend time slowly, it is not impossible to memorize the future by rote, but Leo's own economic level makes him doubt whether he has this future.

The boys and girls from the same town basically took the test three times, and each time they took the test, their scores would be higher. As for saying that there is not even a place to go.

Leo was jealous of them, but he knew that there was no way.

He was especially jealous of the black-haired Luther Kling. In Leo's eyes, that guy was a winner in life—the parents were alive, he looked good, he had a sister, a house, and a bride. That kid still had a stinky face. When others said he did well in the exam, he replied coldly, 'didn't perform well'.

Damn, what are you pretending to be!

Leo rested his arms on his pillow in depression. He couldn't see where his future was at all. Perhaps the only thing he could do in this life was to die alone until he died.

Just when Leo felt that the future was gloomy, suddenly, there was a knocking sound outside the door.

Tuk Tuk Tuk!
"Who? Say!"

Leo replied angrily.

Tuk Tuk Tuk!
However, the people outside the door didn't seem to hear it, they didn't answer anything, they still knocked on the door relentlessly.

"What the hell, who is free to visit me?"

Leo muttered, walked forward, and pushed open the door, only to see the blue moonlight falling on the threshold of the stairs, showing a faint fluorescence. Looking around, the air was filled with only the The elemental butterfly was completely silent.

"What are you doing, it will really amuse me."

Leo was puzzled, turned around and was about to go back to the house, but found that for some reason, the door of his house had been locked and closed.

"Hey! What's the situation? I didn't close the door just now."

He quickly took out his pocket, his face changed - it was broken, and he didn't bring the key when he went out.

Now that it's over, I can only smash the window and go in.

With a dark face, Leo picked up a stone and was about to smash the window. Suddenly, he heard rustling sounds from the grass again, mixed with some laughter.

His heart moved, and he immediately thought of something.

"It seems that someone is trying to trick me on purpose - it must be that kid Luther. He refused to accept me today and wanted to fight me. He must have done the knocking and closing of the door just now."

Thinking to himself, Leo hurriedly stepped into the grass in the dark, pushed aside the grass, observed by the moonlight, and sure enough saw fresh footprints on the ground.

"really."

The footprints stretched all the way, and Leo followed them all the way. He didn't want to smash the glass for nothing, and when he caught that Luther boy, he made him pay for the glass.

After only walking a few miles, Leo felt a little strange—this kid, Luther, can he run like that?
Just when he was feeling suspicious, he suddenly heard a man whispering and calling in front of him, followed by Lin Ye trembling rapidly.

"Oh! This kid probably has helpers, it seems that they found out!"

Leo didn't doubt that he was there, so he quickly rushed up. Although he knew that he was getting farther and farther away from the countryside, Leo didn't worry at all—this is the White Candle Star, and there are no bandits and bandits, even if they are some ferocious beasts. With his skill, he can easily escape.

He tracked all the way, and it could be seen that Luther was a little tired. From time to time, there would be panting and whispering voices in the forest. Leo couldn't hear it clearly, but the tone and the heavy breathing mixed with it could not be faked. of.

"Hahaha, the brat can't run anymore!"

Leo quickened his pace and went straight into the bushes that were as tall as a person. He quickly parted the blades of grass in front of him with his hands. Then he saw a long black knife and chopped it down towards his neck!
bass!
Leo's reaction was so quick that he stopped subconsciously, rolled his head on the ground, and dodged the slash. His heart was cold, and the blade brushed his shoulder, easily tearing open the air, letting him He recalled the Curran Law Enforcement Officer in the village—he could create an air blade thinner than a hair with just a light rub of his fingernails, which could tear apart steel.

"Father of Crystal!"

Leo prayed, got up quickly, grabbed a rock, and threw it towards the killer. His strength was not small. The killer turned his head slightly, and the thrown stone instantly bombarded the mountain behind him like a shell, hard Shengsheng opened a hole in the rock wall, deeply embedded in the rock wall, and then cracked countless tiny gaps like snakes.

"It's not bad. The strength is at the gamma level, but the brain is not as good as the gamma level... Although he is smarter than me, he can be tricked out with just a little skill, probably not fully developed."

The killer glanced at the cracks on the rock wall, and commented casually in an unfamiliar language.

"You... who are you?!"

Leo had just recovered from the shock, but he didn't have the usual arrogance. Facing the sudden appearance of the knife-wielding thug, he didn't dare to run away. He held another big rock in his hand and looked at him nervously.

That guy has run all the way to the present, his physical fitness and speed must be better than his own, and he will definitely not be able to escape. It is better to buy some time, stabilize the other party's emotions, and see if there is room for negotiation.

He calmed down, grinned, showing a smile uglier than crying:

"Speak up if you have something to say, you should understand me, brother..."

The killer didn't answer, but walked out of the woods slowly. The clear and beautiful moonlight fell on his face, making Leo freeze in place. At that moment, even the moon paled in comparison to the person in front of him.

"What a beautiful... man?"

Leo couldn't believe it. It was the first time he saw such a man who made people feel good at the first meeting. He was excellent from the inside to the outside. His jet-black hair was casually draped over his shoulders, and his gray eyes were as clear as crystal, full of dreams. Every corner of the facial features and smooth skin seems to be the product of the creator's own carving, but even a little modification can't achieve such an effect.

Perfect—the word popped up in Leo's heart immediately.

Using perfection to describe the beauty in front of me is not perfect enough.But with his meager knowledge reserve, he couldn't think of a more appropriate description than perfection.

Leo was stunned for a moment, but the beauty in front of him suddenly launched a surprise attack, piercing his throat with a sword without mercy.

"Uh--"

Before Leo's consciousness faded, he vaguely felt that the other party was dragging his ankle and moving quickly towards a certain place in the forest. Afterwards, the killer beauty rummaged through the forest for a while, picked up a bunch of leaves And a huge silver swimming pool was dug out of the wood?

Snapped!
Leo's body was immediately thrown into the pool, his consciousness quickly became blurred in it, and finally disappeared, but under the maintenance of various medicines, his body healed the wound and maintained his life.

"It's really hard to deal with. I didn't stab him to death. This guy's physical fitness is strong enough!"

Li Aoz breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the male body quietly settled at the bottom of the biochemical pool, and nodded in satisfaction.

In any case, the body was finally obtained, and it took him a total of a week, and he had to move the biochemical pool back to the ruins later, and put it here, it was too easy to be exposed.

"Next, is the critical moment."

Li Aoz raised his hand, and the nerve tentacles popped out from the palm, and immediately pierced into the neck of the blond bully. His cells rapidly divided and entered into the body of the blond bully.

[A new unconscious body has been detected, you may have chosen to pollute this body with your own cells, transform it into your own reproductive equipment, or use it as the original body. 】

[Cell invasion completed]

【Pollution......】

Divide, devour, combine, integrate, and complete the replacement.

The whole process was already familiar to Li Ozi.After a while, a red and black flash appeared in Li Aoz's eyes.

[The chromosome has been tampered with, and the genetic transformation is complete]

[The target has been polluted by you - you can choose one of the following options as the final treatment]:
A——Sacrificing the body: The talent of the target is reserved, and it only exists as your spare body, but when you switch to this body, it will not inherit any extraordinary specialties other than the main attribute of your body. (Conditions of use have been met)
B——Modify the colony: Transform the target into a biological weapon. You can wear this colony to maximize its combat effectiveness, but the colony needs regular maintenance and maintenance. (Conditions of use have been met)
C——Into family members: After the genetic modification of this body, implant some of your thinking cells, making it your family group, but its offspring will have a probability of inheriting one of your own arcane abilities and talents (not yet Satisfy the conditions of use: [Intelligence] is lower than 80)

"Well, it's a pity, option C is the most fun, but my intelligence is not enough to pass the threshold. This is a hard requirement, and expertise can't save it."

Including the option of dependents, Li Aoz remembers that it is very suitable for [Master] players who are from the Zerg race. They can easily generate hundreds of descendants, and their production capacity is not much worse than that of [Biochemist]—— these descendants generally have brains. Not good, it's easy to pass through.

Li Ozi wanted to choose A from the very beginning, and without much hesitation, he chose 'Take the Body'.

The body trembled slightly, the familiar soul came out of the body, and the conscious body slowly flew away from the colonized body of the main body. Li Ozi got a little familiar with the actions of the thinking body, and then slowly flew towards the blond bully.

【Transferring...】

[Genetic differences are large, troubleshooting]

【Neural link not responding】

【Heavy chain...】

[Completion of knowledge transfer]
