Chapter 63: Atavism
Alan got up from the bed and walked to the floor-length mirror.
Take a deep breath.
Follow your instincts and call upon the ancestral spirits sleeping deep within your blood.
Boom boom!
Boom boom!
My heartbeat suddenly accelerated!
The blood vessels are slightly hot!
There was a crackling sound from his bones.
The muscles twisted and expanded rapidly like a group of awakened pythons!
With a "swish", Allen's short-sleeved vest was torn by his muscles.
Soon after, the trousers were torn apart by the ever-growing thighs.
The boy in the mirror.
He has a strong build, thick eyebrows and big eyes.
It looked normal at first.
At this moment, as the "atavistic transformation" was activated, he turned into a half-naked muscular giant!
In normal condition, Allen's height is 1.92 meters.
In the atavistic transformation state, the height doubles to nearly 4 meters!
The body weight increased to 8 times that of normal, almost 700 kilograms!
The biggest change is skin color.
Originally bronze skin.
Now it has become azure blue.
Like a poison demon in the meditation world.
The tattered clothes hanging on the blue-skinned giant made him look like a beggar.
Alan raised his palms as big as palm-leaf fans and gently stroked his body.
The touch of the skin is subtly different.
It becomes more elastic and takes on the texture of high-grade leather.
Alan opened the system page and checked his attributes in the transformed state.
The physique increased from 20 to 22.
Natural armor increased from level 3 to level 5.
Level 5 armor, equivalent to a suit of chain mail.
As the body size doubled, the size of the fists and feet also doubled.
With the same punch, the attack range and lethality are doubled compared to normal conditions!
very nice!
This is just a transformation.
Continue to evolve and become even stronger!
The blue-skinned giant in the mirror looked too conspicuous.
Allen is not one to seek the limelight.
Suddenly, he thought of his special ability - poison gland.
The poison gland can restrain the blood and hide the characteristics of the poison demon.
Alan tried it immediately.
I was pleased to find that this function also applies in the transformed state.
After retracting the characteristics of the poisonous demon, the skin color of the blue-skinned giant in the mirror quickly turned lighter.
Restores a healthy tan.
Alan also found that his magic power was slowly fading away.
Maintaining the "Atavism Transformation" requires consumption of magic power.
On average, 1 point of magic power is consumed for every minute of transformation.
With his current total amount of magic power, it would be no problem for him to maintain it for an hour.
In actual combat, atavism is used as a trump card, and the outcome can be determined in three to five minutes.
What really limits the transformation time is not only magic power, but also one's own mental resistance.
The longer the transformation lasts, the easier it is for the mind to be devoured by the will of the ancestral spirits and become possessed.
The consequence is that one will always remain in the transformed state, and one's own soul will be replaced by the ancestral spirits.
To put it bluntly, it means being possessed by a certain ancestral spirit.
Directly stage a wave of "resurrection"!
As a time traveler, no one knows more about possessing other people's bodies than Alan.
It took a lot of effort to come to this world and take over this body.
He certainly didn't want to suffer the same fate as the original owner of this body.
so……
"Atavism" is risky and must be used with caution!
Except for atavism and transformation.
Alan also awakened two 1st level spells.
…
Giant Transformation: Spend 3 magic points to select a creature within 10 meters, double its size, and increase its physical attribute by 2.
The enlargement effect lasts for up to 30 minutes.
During this period, the caster can cancel it at any time.
…
"Giant transformation technique..."
Alan had heard of this spell from his mentor.
A violent warlock, limited by bloodline.
There aren't many magics that can be awakened.
"Giant Transformation Technique" is one of the easier ones to awaken.
It is also one of the most suitable spells for violent warlocks.
Become bigger and stronger.
It feels good to hit people hard with a bigger fist!
"Giant Transformation Technique" is so simple and crude!
Alan suddenly had an idea and decided to do an experiment.
He first started the "atavistic transformation".
Transformed into a 4-meter-tall blue-skinned poisonous demon.
Then, he smeared some iron powder on himself.
Iron powder is the material for casting the "Giant Transformation" spell.
Alan chanted the spell.
"Turcafinwé!"
This spell means "strong".
Next, it’s time to witness a miracle.
Allen transformed again in his ancestral state.
The bones and muscles are expanding like crazy!
4 meters!
5 meters!
6 meters!
…
Alan's height continued to rise.
It finally reached nearly 8 meters before stopping growing.
To be exact, it is 7.68 meters.
It is exactly four times the normal height!
The ceiling of the martial arts hall dormitory is only 7 meters high.
Alan had to hunch over to avoid hitting his head on the ceiling.
Alan's weight is now 5.6 tons, which is 64 times the normal weight!
The atavism transformation + giant transformation technique made Allen's physical attributes soar to an exaggerated 24 points.
The same physical attributes, combined with different body shapes, will result in different levels of destructive power.
More weight means more kinetic energy.
In his double transformation state, Allen's size is comparable to that of a medium-sized truck.
Think of a truck going at full speed. What does it feel like?
Who dares to stop in front of an out-of-control truck and commit suicide?
Allen didn't even have to throw a punch.
If you just rush over, you can knock the people on the street into the air.
It's like a car accident scene!
"Great! Double transformation, I have one more trump card!"
Alan cancels his transformation and returns to his normal size.
Then I discovered something a bit embarrassing.
When the height doubled, the clothes were torn.
However, there were still a few pieces of rags hanging on his body, barely enough to cover his crotch.
However, when the height quadruples...
This is equivalent to an increase in volume by sixty-four times.
Normal clothes can't bear it at all.
Even the last piece of cloth covering her crotch slid down weakly.
This is embarrassing...
Doesn't it mean that every time you transform, your private parts will be exposed? !
Alan frowned slightly.
There is an urgent need to find a fabric with super elasticity.
Sew a pair of super pants big enough to accommodate your transformations!
The second first-level magic that Allen awakened was "Water Control".
…
Water Control: Consumes 4 points of magic power to create or evaporate up to 1 cubic meter of liquid within 40 meters.
…
As first-level magic, "Water Control" consumes 1 more magic point than "Giant Transformation".
Because the configuration of this spell is more complex, its uses are more extensive.
There are two modes of water control.
"Evaporation mode" can be directly applied to the surface of aquatic organisms to cause drying damage.
For example, the lobster monster we encountered at sea.
It is a typical aquatic organism.
If I had learned the "water control technique" at that time, I would have been able to dehydrate the lobster monster's body and cause serious damage.
There is also a more commonly used "water making mode".
It can create 1 cubic meter of clean water, or 1 ton, out of thin air.
When traveling in the wild, especially in desert areas.
This spell can provide adventurers with sufficient and clean water.
The "water-making mode" can be applied directly to a container or released toward the sky.
In the second case, the clean water created will be converted into local rainfall.
Therefore, the second usage of "water control technique" is also called "rain-making technique".
In fact, there is room for further expansion in rainfall patterns.
If Allen uses a small amount of water-soluble spell material when casting a spell ... such as a small bottle of sulfuric acid.
Then, you can rain acid on the enemy's head.
Continue to expand along this line of thought.
Alan naturally thought that many toxins were also water-soluble.
Following the same principle, using water-soluble toxins as casting materials...
"Water Control Technique" was immediately upgraded to "Poison Rain Technique"!
"Water control technique" can be derived into such a rich range of uses.
Among all the first-level magic, it is considered outstanding!
