Steadfast Wizard: From Heart-Swapping Rat to Dimensional Demon God

Chapter 77 An Unexpected Discovery

"Alright, don't look at it like that. The mouse started from a low point, and it's already quite good that it has achieved this much." Seeing that Liuli was looking at the mouse coldly, Isaac thought that she looked down on the mouse's strength. After jumping off Harmon's palm, he couldn't help but explain for it.

"Hehehe~"

Hamon laughed as he flew over, picked up the mouse, and placed it on Isaac's shoulder.

Liuli didn't speak, but simply put away her cold gaze and nodded quietly.

"Speaking of which, why did you suddenly get angry just now?" Isaac patted the mouse's head and looked at the completely disfigured, wriggling ball of flesh on the ground, asking curiously.

"Ouch!"

I know! I know! Just now, an arrow grazed Liuli's face, and then—

The mouse, which was about to boast about its achievement, was only halfway through its speech when it felt a piercing gaze fixed on it, making its fur stand on end!

"And then what happened?" Isaac first glanced at the calm-faced Liuli, and after not finding any injuries on her face, he turned to look at the mouse on his shoulder, stroked it, and calmed its panicked heart.

"Hey hey—"

Then—then, then the arrow was poisoned, and then I don't know what happened next.

As soon as he finished speaking, the mouse could clearly feel the gaze on him disappear, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The eyes in Hamon's palm, which was floating in the sky, would move from one side to look at the mouse, and then to the other side to look at Liuli, with a thoughtful look in its scarlet eyes.

Based on its understanding of mice, it was definitely being coerced!

Hamsters don't have much of a brain; they usually just say whatever they see. Because their brains are so small they're practically nonexistent, they can't think things through, and as a result, they often say very offensive things.

So the mouse must have seen some secret of Liuli, but was threatened by her. As for what that secret is...

Hamon blinked his blood-red eyes in his palm, then tossed them aside, not caring what they were; they didn't matter.

Hamon gently tapped the mouse's head with its paw: "Hiss hiss." "Keep trying!" The mouse lowered its head somewhat dejectedly and nodded.

Isaac ignored Harmon's interaction with the mouse, instead moving closer to Liuli and carefully examining her fair face, his brow furrowing slightly: "Was the arrow poisoned? Are you poisoned?"

Liuli shook her head and said calmly, "It's poisonous, but just a common toxin; it has no effect on me."

"I'm angry just thinking about how he dared to shoot you with such an arrow."

Mouse: "???"

You just blurt it out? And you say it so naturally?

Bad woman!

No, it's a malignant tumor!

Seeing Liuli spouting lies so casually, Shushu's innocent and young heart was greatly shocked.

Isaac, however, seemed oblivious. He simply smiled, reached out and ruffled Liuli's hair, saying, "Thank you for your concern, but you should be more careful about your own safety, since you're the one fighting on the front lines."

"Mmm." Liuli nodded gently, her lips curving upwards by four pixels, and her eyes narrowing by five pixels.

I was in a really good mood, but it was hard to tell.

Isaac looked at the lump of flesh on the ground, casually tossed down a ball of fire, and set it ablaze. The crackling flames burned the lump of flesh, causing it to sprout numerous tentacles that emitted silent howls, seemingly in extreme pain.

However, that's all the flames can do. Although these lumps of flesh look very abstract, they are still second-tier life forms. The damage caused by the flames that Isaac casually throws out is very limited.

Therefore, after a moment's thought, Isaac extinguished the flames. Then, Hamon spread his five fingers and let out a roar that sounded like a demonic voice. An invisible wave of magic spread out from Isaac.

"Aigugu~~"

In the blink of an eye, the lumps of flesh that Isaac had just thrown down emerged from all directions and rushed toward the corpses on the riverbank, tearing at them to their hearts' content. After completely filling their bellies, they plunged directly into the river.

Isaac glanced at the demonic rats who had struggled to bite off even a small piece of meat, and sighed helplessly. It was a pity that the warriors didn't have any magic power, otherwise he wouldn't have had to go through all this trouble and could have simply used their bodies as casting material.

But it doesn't matter, I can eat slowly and finish it eventually.

The only troublesome part is the corpses of the two great warriors. The mutated rats are too weak; not only can they not eat them, but they might also be killed by the activated flesh...

Ok?

Isaac, who was about to turn and leave, suddenly froze. A flash of inspiration struck him. He looked down at the writhing mass of flesh on the ground, his brows slowly furrowing.

A moment later, he remembered that fleeting flash of inspiration!

He knew what was wrong!

The flesh-and-blood transformation spell cannot use just any flesh and blood as the casting material; it must be demonized flesh and blood, meaning it must contain magic power. This was one of the reasons why Isaac didn't want to go for a solo build in the past, because this thing is too expensive without unlimited magic power.

That's not a fight, it's a battle for gold coins!

And that's where the problem lies. Flesh and blood mutation is an extension of flesh and blood transformation, so like flesh and blood transformation, it requires magic power within the target. So here's the question.

Warriors don't have magic in their bodies, so how could they be affected?

Magic isn't something everyone possesses like in those novels from my previous life; it's just a matter of varying amounts.

Magic is not an essential energy source for the human body. On the contrary, if ordinary people do not have the means to control their magic, they will slowly be transformed into monsters, even if they only have a little bit of magic!

Therefore, the bodies of ordinary people actually reject magic. Otherwise, Isaac would not have ended up on the path of a legendary wizard. If he had even a little bit of magic in his body, he would have become an arcanist with the help of a cheat.

So, do warriors actually possess magical power within them?

Isaac frowned slightly as he looked at the writhing corpse on the ground. If that was the case, then it was quite interesting. This meant that even the path of the warrior could lead to higher levels!

Perhaps advanced warriors will emerge in the future!

Staring at the writhing mass of flesh on the ground, Isaac sighed again, waved to Liuli, and then turned and walked towards the carriage.

It's a pity he encountered this at the wrong time; he didn't have anywhere to store those two things, otherwise he really wanted to study them properly.

Isaac of today is no longer the novice wizard who felt pity for humanoid monsters just six months ago.

He has no feelings now!

"Pfft! Pfft!"

Behind her, after receiving Isaac's order, Liuli pulled out a large sword from under her skirt, casually executed the lump of flesh on the ground, and then fused the sword into her body.

Then, Harmon shrank back into Isaac's body. The two men and the mouse boarded the carriage one after the other. The two white horses pulling the pumpkin carriage had a glint in their eyes and started moving on their own, heading directly to the place where the glass was created yesterday.
