Chapter 125: Chapter 112: Hydra
The first ray of morning sunlight shone through the window, casting a warm golden spot on the wooden floor of the workshop.
Ron stood in the center of the training room, took a deep breath, and felt the ever-growing flow of power within his body.
He closed his eyes, his thoughts drifting towards the origins of his bloodline.
The Ralph Clan—a venerable family that existed since the founding of the Faruk Kingdom.
According to family ancient texts, their bloodline traces back to the Hydra Giant Poison Snake from the Divine Era.
However, every knight nobility with a bloodline inheritance can trace their ancestors to extraordinarily powerful creatures.
It’s not surprising; our ancestors were affluent, but the current Ralph Clan can at most awaken the ordinary Swamp Multi-headed Snake bloodline.
The Ralph Clan’s crest, adorned with the image of a multi-headed snake, symbolizes the family’s roots and power.
In the past, while in the kingdom, he was puzzled as to why humans would possess the bloodlines of giant serpents or dragon species.
He even had inappropriate fantasies because of it, but now it seems... everything is just the experintal products of wizards.
"But now..."
Ron murmured softly, his fingers brushing over his arm where golden ridian patterns were faintly visible beneath the skin, a trait gained from practicing the "Crown Breathing Technique" called the "Sun’s Protection".
Since consuming the modified "Sun Fla Essence" to break through, he often felt a heat flowing within, a sensation both unfamiliar and strangely familiar, as if so long-dormant power was gradually awakening.
"The Ralph Clan’s Multi-headed Snake bloodline and the Sun Fla Dragon Subspecies bloodline evoked by the Crown Breathing Technique... two distinct extraordinary bloodlines coexist within ."
Ron fell into deep thought:
"Along with the ’Origin Tracing’ trait I just acquired, perhaps I can trace back to a purer, more ancient bloodline form."
The possibility of multiple bloodline overlays made Ron’s heart race.
Of course, there was caution amidst this anticipation.
Bloodline activation is a double-edged sword; uncontrolled direction or excessive intensity can lead to mutation.
But with the "Origin Tracing" trait and his precisely concocted Bloodline Activation Potion, he might be able to minimize these risks.
"In any case, in a few days, I’ll have the chance to uncover the answers," Ron said softly, slowly opening his eyes.
He raised his hand and picked up the Ironwood Sword placed to the side, executing a series of basic sword techniques with ease.
Each movent flowed like water, with natural and smooth sword montum, devoid of any excessive force.
Every muscle in his body worked in precise coordination, each swing of the sword carried a chilling precision and sharpness.
The sword light traced a graceful arc in the morning light, emitting a slight whistling sound, as though slicing the air.
[Current Progress: Basic Swordsmanship (Mastery max)]
"It really has reached its peak..." Ron murmured to himself, sheathing his sword, "Continuing to practice won’t increase my experience points any further."
His basic swordsmanship had reached its limit, and the profession panel indicated no more improvents.
In this situation, rely practicing sword techniques was clearly a waste of ti, given the panel’s fixation, his skill wouldn’t regress even without practice.
"To further advance in swordsmanship, it seems I have to wait until I advance to [Magic Swordsman]."
"Until then, I’ll focus on magic." Ron decided.
Today marked the beginning of his second week living in the workshop. To save unnecessary travel ti, Eric and Leia scheduled the weekly assessnt together; passing it would allow direct entry into the second phase of courses.
"The weekly assessnt is this afternoon, better practice so magic first." Ron smiled slightly, turning his hand towards the spellcasting dium—a delicately crafted silver bracelet.
He had purchased this specifically so ti ago to better guide the flow of magic power and increase spell efficiency, costing about a dozen Magic Stone Fragnts.
Though a basic alchemical artifact, for his current stage, it was sufficient as an aid.
Standing in the open area of the workshop, Ron took a deep breath, adjusting his breath and ntal state. Raising his hands, he closed his eyes to sense the flow of magic power within.
He first concentrated on perceiving the room’s energy field, then gradually shifted attention to the special training subject: a white lab rat placed under a transparent glass do.
This specially bred mouse was extrely sensitive to spiritual power fluctuations, making it an ideal subject for practicing spiritual interference spells.
"Spiritual Interference..."
Ron’s spiritual power started to gather, forming a barely visible fine ripple.
This ripple seed fragile but encapsulated a ticulously constructed spiritual interference model, able to act on a creature’s nervous system, causing temporary confusion or dizziness.
He repeatedly adjusted the ripple’s frequency and intensity, striving to find the optimal balance point.
Too weak, it wouldn’t have any effect; too strong, it could permanently harm the test subject.
The initial attempts were not ideal.
The first ti, the test mouse barely reacted;
The second ti, it rely twitched its ears slightly;
The third ti, it briefly halted its actions but quickly returned to normal.
"Not precise enough..." Ron frowned.
He closed his eyes, fully imrsed in the ntal construction, attempting a more complex ripple structure.
This ti, he constructed a looped spiritual wave, theoretically able to act more precisely on specific brain regions.
"Fourth attempt..."
With the spiritual power released, an invisible ripple precisely aid at the glass do.
This ti, the effect was imdiate—the lab rat suddenly stopped all movents, as if frozen in place, its gaze beca bewildered and vacant.
To be precise, it wasn’t just stopped but put into a specific state of nerve disturbance. Ron could clearly sense the brain activity of the lab rat being temporarily halted by him.
Dozens of seconds later, the lab rat returned to normal but appeared a bit fatigued and confused, the typical aftermath of spiritual interference.
[Spiritual Interference Experience Points
1]
[Breakthrough! Spiritual Interference (Beginner 50/50) → Spiritual Interference (Proficient 1/100)]
[Gained Additional Trait: Lag Circle (Within a specific range, interference effect slightly increases)]
"Success!" Ron softly cheered, feeling the slight changes in the flow mode of spiritual power within him.
After a brief rest, he began practicing "Magic Construction," the foundation of all spells, determining the caster’s control over magic power and the stability of the magic model.
He picked up a special crystal ball, a tool specifically used for practicing magic construction.
The crystal ball could reflect the caster’s magic power control in real-ti, with any slight fluctuation and instability manifesting inside it.
"This ti I’ll try the triple overlay structure..."
Ron muttered to himself, referring to an advanced technique he saw in the book "Wizard Modeling Essentials
