Chapter 259: Chapter 177: Erosion Chapter
The starlight slowly swirled above the Black Mist Jungle, as the last rays of twilight outside were devoured by the night.
Inside the laboratory on the second floor of the workshop, lights were blazing, and a figure was busy over a desk, surrounded by various manuscripts and experint materials.
Ron took a deep breath, feeling the new energy within him that was generated from taking up the bloodline modulation profession.
The aftereffect of the profession change had yet to fully dissipate, but an unprecedented understanding of the essence of life was gradually becoming clear in his consciousness.
"It’s so amazing..."
He murmured, tapping his fingertip lightly on the lab bench. The new abilities he gained far exceeded his initial expectations.
At that mont, his profession panel flashed again, revealing more information:
[Detected profession linkage: Modulator
Wizard Apprentice
Alchemist
Magic Potion Master
Bloodline Knight]
[Acquired linkage bonus:
1. Enhanced bloodline extraction efficiency
2. Increased precision in extraordinary material recognition
3. Improved energy conversion rate
4. Enhanced bloodline activity within self]
He could sense the profound changes these linkage bonuses brought forth.
The "enhanced bloodline activity within self" was especially significant.
Ron closed his eyes, feeling the rhythm of the Chira Bloodline within him.
It was more active and powerful than ever before, like a sleeping beast awakening so of its potential.
A thought ford in his mind: Since he had reached such a level of understanding and control over the bloodline, perhaps he could help the two non-human mbers in the workshop?
Especially Ailan, who had just completed her transformation and her body was still in an unstable phase, making it the best ti for modulation.
With this in mind, Ron left the laboratory and headed to the backyard.
Under the moonlight, Ailan was standing beside a small tree covered in white flowers, her fingertips gently caressing the branches, causing the flowers to bloom at night and emit a faint glow.
Dale and Lilia had already gone to bed, leaving only her in the entire backyard.
"Ailan," Ron called softly.
The tree spirit turned, her erald eyes shimring with an unusual luster in the moonlight.
"Master, up so late still?"
"I want to perform a comprehensive body check on you."
Ron said straightforwardly, "You’ve just completed your transformation, and many functions aren’t stable yet; I can help balance and stabilize these changes."
A flicker of surprise flashed in Ailan’s eyes, but it quickly changed to understanding:
"Of course, going to the laboratory now?"
"Yes, the instrunts there are more complete."
In the laboratory, Ron had prepared a specially designed examination platform.
Covered with a layer of soft velvety cloth, surrounded by precise energy monitoring devices.
"What do I... need to do?" Ailan asked softly.
Her roots lifted and fell gently with her movents, gracefully as if she were performing an ancient dance.
As she stood before the examination platform, a hint of hesitation crossed her delicate features, "Master... do I need to..."
"Yes, you need to remove those... um, coverings."
Ron’s voice remained calm, though he had to admit feeling a bit awkward at the mont.
"This is for scientific investigation, Ailan."
Ailan nodded slightly, without the slightest hesitation.
Her green dress gradually faded with her intent, finally dissolving into a wisp of green light.
Standing nude in the moonlight, her skin showed a healthy olive green, covered with extrely fine wood grain.
Ron forced himself to maintain a professional deanor, focusing on the research rather than the art-like perfect female form before him.
But he also noticed that Ailan was still rely simulating human form; in reality, she was a plant being resembling a human.
Perhaps only when she becos the "Golden Oak Queen" one day could she mostly resemble a human.
Activating "Extraordinary Recognition" and "Tracing" dual traits, he began the comprehensive examination.
"Please lie flat on the platform." Ron instructed, preparing to ticulously record every discovery.
Ailan obediently lay down, her green hair cascading down both sides of the platform, shimring like satin.
Ron’s hands hovered several centiters above Ailan’s body, his Spiritual Power probing into her internal structure like precise instruntation.
"Amazing construction..." He couldn’t help but exclaim.
Ailan’s internal structure was far more complex than imagined.
The system of vessels didn’t circulate blood, but a kind of erald tree sap, rich in high-concentration Magic Power.
Her "heart" wasn’t a conventional pump but an Energy Core, constantly delivering energy throughout her body.
"Beneath your skin is a layer of special photosynthetic tissue that can directly absorb sunlight and convert it into energy."
Ron checked while recording,
"This is an efficient structure not found in conventional plants, more akin to the primitive form of ancient tree fairies."
Ailan listened quietly, occasionally her wooden skin would ripple slightly as Ron’s Spiritual Power touched it, like a lake surface ruffled by the breeze.
Thanks to the profession linkage effects and the dual trait bonus, he could "see" the energy flow within Ailan’s body with unprecedented clarity.
Every vein, every Energy Node, was clearly visible in his perception.
"Your bloodline is still in an active phase."
While observing, Ron explained to Ailan,
"I can see seven main energy vortices at the core, a typical feature of ancient tree fairies, but the connection between your fifth and sixth vortex is not stable yet."
His voice carried a strong academic interest,
"This third node appears to regulate your control over plants, but it is currently unstable."
