A Wizard’s Secret

After Merlin had trained using the relief sculpture for a few days, he could feel some obvious changes. Even if it was not comparable to the Spell Models built by the Spell Caster civilization, it could reach a terrifying point.

However, the only thing to worry about was whether these relief sculpture postures would work or not.

Therefore, after noticing that there was no one in the room, Merlin began to practice the relief sculpture postures in his memory. Merlin had not practiced these postures for a long time. In the Void Zone, this was Aruba’s set of cultivation techniques, which was a failure. However, if he could practice it to the peak, it would also be very powerful. At least, there would be no problems in protecting himself in this world.

Merlin had only practiced the first set of postures for two hours before feeling extremely fatigued both in body and spirit, which was different from the feeling he used to get when practicing the relief sculpture postures in the Void Zone.

When practicing the relief sculpture positions in the beginning, Merlin had discovered some black impurities all over his body and felt very refreshed and comfortable. However, he felt extremely tired now. This showed that the postures did not have much effect on this body.

“There’s no effect… It’s not the relief sculpture positions’ problem but the body’s!”

Merlin studied carefully and finally came to a conclusion. The positions on the relief sculpture was originally a training drill Aruba had specifically created according to the body structure of the beings born in the Void Zone or the land of the origin.

Therefore, how would these relief sculpture positions work in a completely new Latitude Cosmos with a different natural order than the Void Zone?

“The relief sculpture positions have no effect but what about Mind Power?”

Merlin began to check his Mind Power. His Mind Power came from the Illusory World, but now that the Illusory World had collapsed, Merlin’s Mind Power also decreased greatly. He only managed to stop the shifter earlier because he had used Mind Power.

However, his Mind Power decreased with each use. If this body could have Mind Power, it could even speed up the recovery of the Illusory World.

When Merlin began the Mind Power cultivation method, he discovered that this body could not even produce Mind Power.

Even in the Void Zone, many civilizations did not have Mind Power. One such example was the Vestigial Tribe.

The relief sculpture positions could not be used, and Merlin could not even train the most basic Mind Power. He felt somewhat troubled. Now that his Illusory World had been utterly damaged, it would be difficult to recover in a short period without any special circumstances.

If the Illusory World was exposed during this period, it would instantly be attacked by the will of the Almighty Beast World. At that time, Merlin would not be able to resist in any way.

“I need to find a way to protect myself!”

Merlin glanced at the sky outside. In this world, there were many stars in the sky, and some legends circulated in “Leon’s” memory. The stars in the sky were the result of the death of a terrifying monster.

“Almighty beast… That’s right, the power system of this world is the almighty beast bloodline!”

Merlin recalled what had happened in the manor before where a man suddenly turned into a terrifying wolf. That power was equivalent to an ordinary Spell Caster’s.

As for Count Stanwin, he was even stronger. In Merlin’s perception, the shifted Count Stanwin was no less powerful than a Seventh-level Wizard in the Spell Caster civilization in the Void Zone.

This showed that if one could bring out the full power of the bloodline in this world, one would also possess great power.

“Since Mind Power can’t be used and the relief sculpture positions don’t have any effect, I can only train with the system of this world.”

Merlin vaguely knew from the memories that the power system of this world was the power of almighty beasts.

The Almighty Beast World was extremely broad and very different from many dimensions in the Void Zone. The Almighty Beast World was full of boundless continents that were extremely large, and no one could traverse the entire continent.

The people in the Almighty Beast World all believed that they were descendants of almighty beasts and had all kinds of almighty beast bloodlines. The stronger the almighty beast, the stronger its bloodline ability. The stronger the almighty beast bloodlines, the more one would be able to awaken the power of the almighty beast and become a shifter.

However, not everyone had the almighty beast bloodline. There were only a few who had the almighty beast bloodline, and it took a long time of training to be able to achieve anything.

The body that Merlin seized had a very good family. The Hilderbrandt clan inherited the Deinosuchus bloodline. The Deinosuchus bloodline was once a very powerful almighty beast. Although it could not be compared to those top or legendary almighty beast bloodlines, it was considered relatively strong.

Leon’s father, Count Stanwin, had a very rich Deinosuchus bloodline. Therefore, he possessed great power and even became a Count of the empire with a large territory.

However, Count Stanwin’s only son and heir to the entire Hilderbrandt clan, Leon, did not inherit a trace of the Deinosuchus bloodline.

If not for the fact that his father doted on him very much, Leon’s life would not be as pleasant as this. After all, the Hilderbrandt clan had proposed several times for a young man with the Deinosuchus bloodline to succeed Count Stanwin and become his adopted son. It would be better for that person to inherit the title of Count and lead the Hilderbrandt clan to maintain its glory in the future, but they were all rejected by Count Stanwin.

“Almighty beast bloodline…”

Merlin took a deep breath, and began to inspect the bloodline of this body. With Merlin’s keen observation, he could feel that “Leon’s” body was a little different from ordinary people and seemed to contain relatively strong power.

However, the concentration of the bloodline was too thin and simply could not burst with power. It seemed that “Leon” did not possess the powerful Deinosuchus bloodline.

“Creak.”

As Merlin pondered how to gain strength, the door was gently pushed open, and Lady Reese, wearing a white dress, entered.

Lady Reese smiled. Seeing Merlin had woken up, she said softly, “Leon, rest well now that you’ve woken up. You don’t have to worry about anything. The manor is very safe now. The Count has already transferred the heavy knights back and has also thoroughly investigated the Blackbat Militia. I believe that this will never happen again.”

Lady Reese gently took Merlin’s hand. She looked at this pale hand and the thin young man in front of her. She did not see this before, but unexpectedly, there was a brave heart hidden in this thin body.

If it were not for Merlin’s sacrifice to push Reese, she might have been killed by the Blackbat Militia. After all, the Blackbat Militia would only spare Leon. If he was used to threaten Count Stanwin, an insignificant woman like her would not stand a chance.

A girl’s thoughts were very subtle. Before, she felt that Leon did not have any almighty beast bloodline and was far from what she imagined as a “hero”. However, Leon’s courage at that moment made her sit up and take notice. She even faintly felt that it did not seem too unacceptable if she stayed with Leon all her life.

Merlin naturally detected the change in Reese’s attitude, but he did not mind. From Reese’s words, Merlin learned that the current situation was still not peaceful, and something like this might happen again one day.

In any case, Merlin needed a way to protect himself. Otherwise, he would always feel insecure in this strange Latitude Cosmos.
