Wizarding Age: I can analyze everything

Chapter 25 The Magical Pet "Mist Feather"

[After this individual is transformed into a magical pet, there is a 4.23% chance that it will awaken a magical ability.]

Looking at the feedback from the All-Knowing Eye, Pei Ze couldn't help but shake his head.

Over the past few days, he has investigated at least six or seven hundred crows, but the one with the highest awakening rate is only 33.59%.

According to "The Complete Guide to Magical Pets," a wizard's maximum mental energy expenditure for each contract with a magical pet is approximately between 0.5 and 1 unit.

If the magical pet transformed through the contract is too weak, the maximum amount of mental energy lost will be wasted.

For wizards, every bit of spiritual energy is extremely precious.

Therefore, wizards are extremely cautious when making contracts with magical creatures.

Pei Ze was no exception.

He doesn't intend to try it rashly unless there's an 80% or higher chance of awakening.

"Let's continue."

Pei Ze grabbed a crow from the cage next to him and continued his analysis.

He thought he would repeat his previous fruitless experience today, but the information returned by the All-Knowing Eye surprised him this time.

[After this individual is transformed into a magical pet, there is a 98.34% chance that it will awaken a magic-type ability, and a 68.31% chance that it will awaken two types of magic abilities.]

98.34%!

This is almost equivalent to an inevitable awakening!

Furthermore, there is a greater than two-thirds chance of awakening two types of magical abilities!

Pei Ze was overjoyed.

He quickly looked down at the crow he was holding in his palm.

It is about 40 centimeters long, with a sharp and slightly curved beak, fluffy, glossy black feathers, and a heavy obsidian-like sheen. Its eyes gleam like gemstones in the unlit living room.

Previously preoccupied with thinking, Pei Ze hadn't paid much attention, but upon closer inspection, he noticed that this crow seemed healthier and stronger than its companions, and its feathers were also darker and shinier.

"An outstanding individual among crows?"

Pei Ze smiled with delight.

I've hit the jackpot this time.

Not only have you found a contract target who is almost certain to awaken a type of magical ability, but you also have a high chance of awakening two types of magical abilities. Your luck is just too good!

Coming back to his senses from his joy, Pei Ze immediately took out the scroll of the pet contract, unfolded it, and placed it on the floor.

The front of the parchment scroll features a contract array composed of countless intricate patterns.

As the scroll unfurled, the contract array slowly glowed with a faint black light, giving the entire scroll an indescribable and wondrous aura.

Pei Ze first cast a stun spell on the crow, then gently placed the helpless little creature on the contract magic circle in the center of the scroll, pressed his index finger against the edge of the magic circle, and uttered a few syllables in a low voice.

Invisible magical energy fluctuations spread out in all directions.

Wisps of dark mist rose from the magic array, wrapping around the crow like spider silk, and in the blink of an eye, it engulfed it, forming an oval-shaped black cocoon.

A few seconds later, the patterns of the contract array gradually disappeared, and sparks suddenly ignited at the four corners of the scroll, spreading rapidly towards the center. In the blink of an eye, the scroll was burned to ashes and disappeared.

Pei Ze withdrew his finger, staring intently at the black cocoon, waiting for the transformation of new life to complete.

This process did not last long. About ten minutes later, the black cocoon suddenly trembled slightly, and then the black cocoon shell melted away as quickly as ice in a fire, revealing a motionless crow inside.

Sensing something, Pei Ze slowly reached out and stroked the crow's black feathers.

It looks no different from before, but it feels like touching a thick liquid, as if your finger would sink in if you applied too much pressure.

I couldn't feel any breathing or heartbeat, nor any signs of being alive; it was like some other strange thing disguised as a crow.

Suddenly, the crow's eyelids twitched.

In an instant, Pei Ze's fingers lost most of their tactile sensation, grasping at nothing, and his entire palm plunged into that black body.

There was nothing inside—no blood, no internal organs, no bones. It was like being pulled into a cold pool of water; you couldn't catch anything.

The next second, the crow's body suddenly disintegrated, turning into wisps of black mist that drifted toward Pei Ze's shoulder, reforming into the shape of a crow and perching on his shoulder.

"Atomization capability!"

Sensing something in the darkness, Pei Ze immediately learned of the crow's awakened magic-like ability, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"And there's the ability to summon mist crows, two spell-like abilities!"

The crow's eyes were fully open, its clear black and white pupils darting around a few times before finally settling on Pei Ze's face, staring at him without blinking.

After staring at each other for a moment, the crow gently pecked at his cheek.

It doesn't hurt, just a little itchy, with a distinct sense of intimacy.

Pei Ze immediately laughed, gently stroking its neck, and whispered, "Little guy, we need to give you a name. What should we call you?"

The crow cawed softly and rubbed against his fingers, appearing quite affectionate and dependent.

After a moment's thought, Pei Ze quickly came up with an idea.

"I'll call you Wuyu."

The crow, transformed into a magical pet, possesses intelligence comparable to that of a normal human. Of course, it cannot yet comprehend the meaning of the word "Mist Feather." Upon hearing Pei Ze's words, it merely cawed once to indicate that it understood.

"Now, demonstrate your other ability," Pei Ze commanded.

Wu Yu raised its head and cried out, then suddenly transformed into a wisp of black mist, drifting towards the cage next to Pei Ze that contained many crows, and slipped through the gaps in the cage.

To Pei Ze's astonishment, the black mist quickly enveloped a crow, then, after a moment of wriggling, reformed into misty feathers.

Immediately afterwards, another 'Mist Feather' slowly separated from its body.

The two looked exactly the same, but in Pei Ze's perception, the one on the left was the real Wu Yu, while the one on the right was the 'Mist Raven' it had summoned.

Like its original form, this fog crow also possesses the ability to form fog.

"To transform one's own kind into life forms similar to oneself?"

Pei Ze seemed to be deep in thought.

This ability seems quite strong.

Keep in mind that the number of crows in the entire outer city is no less than five figures. If they could all be converted, wouldn't that mean having tens of thousands of summoned creatures!

Just thinking about it is exciting!

"I just don't know how strong the little guy and the Mist Raven are. We'll have to test them in the spell lab," Pei Ze said with a smile.

Upon hearing his words, Wuyu cried out and proudly raised her head.

Through a mysterious connection, Pei Ze sensed an emotional message similar to "Don't underestimate the crow."

He suddenly burst into laughter.

Pets and their owners can sense each other's emotions within a certain distance, similar to telepathy, which wizards call emotional connection.

As the power of magical pets increases, they may evolve abilities such as shared vision and shared spells, and even more types of spell abilities.
