The oval-shaped extraordinary organ continuously swallows green gold blood like a swimming dragon.
Just like the heart, lapis lazuli blood circulates stably and continuously through the limbs and bones under the action of extraordinary organs.
And with every inhalation and exhalation cycle, the green gold blood energy is undergoing strange changes.
The color becomes purer, like a molten gemstone, clear yet thick, and the energy density increases again.
In this way, after several cycles, the blood and energy in the body will undergo another innovation.
The current blood energy can hardly be called blood energy anymore.
Yet it is still genuine, derived from pure energy of the human body!
It’s just a higher energy level than blood energy!
There is no sense of rejection physically, nor is the spirit affected in any way.
It is not like the transformation of the bloodline, taking on some of the habits of the original bloodline owner, nor is it like the transformation of the elements, in which the seven emotions and six desires are indifferent...
Colin kept his humanity intact!
‘The purpose of practicing wizards is not to become an indifferent god.
In the true path of a wizard, the more you practice, the clearer your true heart becomes, and the more you practice...the more you become your true self."
Colin raised the corner of his mouth and reached out to touch his now naked chest.
The gray dead skin suddenly fell off, revealing the white and tender skin underneath that looked like a newborn baby or like a shining jade.
There are almost no pores or blemishes visible.
Although the green gold energy in the body has stabilized, the transformation of the body is not yet over.
The skin changes are just the tiniest bit.
Muscle fibers, organs, cell activity...even vision and hearing have been greatly improved.
And this transformation continues.
'About... ten more days?"
Colin controlled the green gold energy and shook it, and all the dead skin on his naked body was shaken off.
Even though the standard witch robe that was originally worn outside had a certain amount of heat-resistant energy, it had already been turned into ashes under the strong heat.
He is completely naked now, and only the storage ring and witchcraft tools, which are more resistant to higher temperatures, remain... which is a bit eye-catching.
However, there is no one in the courtyard at the moment and there is witchcraft covering it, so there is nothing to fear.
However, in fact, Colin did not realize it himself.
But the faint silvery white moonlight fell, matching his extremely handsome appearance and almost perfect body.
This scene is eye-catching for most people.
Buzz——
After shaking off the dead skin, Colin did not immediately recover the lapis lazuli energy.
Instead, he controlled it to carefully shuttle through his limbs and bones, feeling the power boost brought by the green gold energy to him.
"About five to ten times the increase in physical strength?"
Colin waved his hand gently and made a rough estimate.
"However, what happened to my pure physical strength now?"
After a second thought, he subconsciously planned to jump up on the spot and conduct a simple test.
But the next moment, Colin quickly stopped his movements, waved his hand and took out a new set of witch robes from the storage ring and put them on.
Then, he waved his hand to bless himself with invisible shadows and silence.
Although the invisible shadow that breaks the limit once can only hide some slow-moving objects at most, it can be somewhat covered.
Moreover, if you jump higher and the people below look up, the background is the unchanged night.
When the illuminating light does not change much, no matter how fast it moves, the background remains unchanged.
In this case, according to the principle of invisible shadow, his figure should be perfectly hidden...
Colin bent his knees slightly, with expectation in his eyes.
Although he can feel that his body is now like a silent volcano, hiding surging power.
But the feeling of self is always a little deceptive most of the time...
The knees gradually bent to 90 degrees, and the muscles in the calves suddenly tightened, as did the thighs!
Immediately afterwards, an unparalleled force started from the soles of the feet, went up along the skeletal muscles of the legs, passed to the dragon-like spine, and then to the whole body.
Teng!
Under the influence of silence, no sound was heard, but a huge deep pit suddenly exploded in the land in the front yard of the villa.
Sand and dust flew everywhere.
In the smoke and dust, Colin had already disappeared.
When I looked up into the night sky, it was completely empty.
But if you can see through the invisible shadow, you can clearly see that there is a blond figure next to the huge bright moon in the night sky.
Swish--
The sound of wind kept blowing by my ears, and the upward momentum continued.
Colin looked at the gradually smaller villa below his feet and felt his heart surge.
He is no stranger to high altitudes.
It can even be said that the height of this pure physical leap was actually not too high, probably only about ten meters.
In his previous life, it would have been only six or seven stories high.
And relying on the magic of flying, he can reach an altitude of several thousand meters.
There is absolutely no comparison between the two.
However, the feeling of jumping to such a height simply by relying on the body is completely different from using witchcraft.
Overall, it looks a bit like... a superhero from a movie in his previous life?
Colin's rising momentum gradually slowed down, and finally remained still for a moment at the highest point.
Then it began to fall under the influence of gravity. The constantly blowing wind caused the witch's robe to roll back, and the corners of his gray clothes swayed violently.
Colin made no move and allowed gravity to take him down.
He fell straight down like this, only slightly bending his knees when he was close to the ground.
boom!
The magic of silence is still in effect, so the whereabouts this time are also silent.
But the shaking ground and flying dust were enough for the viewer to imagine the sound of the impact.
'My current weight... seems to be different from ordinary people."
Straightening up, Colin smiled.
With his current physical control ability, some force-relieving techniques are like innate talents, and he can use them naturally and effortlessly.
During the whole process, he was not injured at all, just like a normal person.
Moreover, whether he was jumping or falling, he did not use any green gold energy or magic power to assist, and relied entirely on his physical body.
'What a powerful body... This is before the transformation is completely over.
If you add in the increase in green gold energy... it can be called extraordinary!"
'It's just that this green gold energy...maybe no longer suitable to be called blood energy."
Colin frowned and considered:
"What's called blood energy? Qing Qi?"
"Hmm... Bronze Dou Qi may be more suitable."
"Now, I should be considered a Bronze Knight, or...a first-class knight."
Finally, Colin decided on the name.
Since the knight's path can break through the great knight, it also means that the current bronze knight is by no means the end.
There will definitely be improvements in the future.
‘Have you now created a new extraordinary system?”
But soon, Colin shook his head again and walked towards the basement, ready to call out Renee and others who were hiding.
His experience of becoming the Bronze Knight is indeed a bit tortuous, and I don't know if it can be replicated.
Even if he could copy it, without the ancient tree heart crystal formed from the broken branches of the ancient tree of life, it would be difficult to reach his current level of strength...
As he walked, Colin thought wildly.
The changes brought to him by becoming a first-level knight are comprehensive. In addition to his powerful body, there are many subtleties waiting for him to discover.
Especially when his advancement is so special.
'Don't rush it for a while...the body transformation is not complete yet."
‘At least what can be discovered now is the talent of strong life, which has also been upgraded to strong life (gold).
Moreover, no limit-breaking points have been consumed."
The gold paper gradually disappeared.
Under the moonlight, Colin's steps were brisk.
There is nothing more satisfying than the improvement of strength.
…
The next day.
It's still early morning.
Colin rarely slept in.
At about nine o'clock in the morning, he opened the door and left the bedroom.
Renee was standing outside the door, looking like she had been waiting outside for a long time.
"Master, good morning." Renee greeted, and then said: "There is a guest looking for you. It is the landlord Hawthorne...he came at sunrise and has been waiting for three hours."
"Hawthorn... I understand." Colin smiled, "When I finish breakfast, I will bring him to the study."
Yesterday, he was in a good mood when he advanced. If he had been busy practicing before, he would definitely not have met this real estate developer.
But now, he suddenly became interested.
…
"Sir, the maid is here."
Outside the door of Villa No. 5, on the banks of the Lebo River.
The tall knight whispered to the well-dressed middle-aged man next to him, who was looking at the river view with his hands behind his back.
"Yeah." Hawthorn retracted his gaze, nodded slightly, and walked quickly to the door.
Although he has been standing here for three hours, his expression is still calm and his body is always upright.
Crunch——
The tall black iron door opens.
The beautiful and quiet young maid appeared in front of the two of them. She said to him with a polite face:
"The master has agreed to see you, Mr. Hawthorne."
"Okay, ma'am."
Hawthorn showed a heartfelt smile, gave instructions to the tall figure next to him, and walked into the courtyard alone.
Renee led Hawthorn towards the study.
Colin had previously ordered that without his consent, all visitors would be turned away and not allowed to take a single step into the courtyard.
When Hawthorn came to visit this morning, Colin was still awake, so of course he was turned away.
Renee thought Hawthorn would leave, but she didn't expect to wait until now.
The two of them walked in the courtyard one behind the other.
There was a messy scene all around.
The withered and yellow vegetation looked like a lawn that had been bombarded by artillery shells... The traces caused by Colin's advancement yesterday had not yet been cleared up.
After all, the landlord was behind her. Renee wanted to say something, but in the end she kept her mouth shut and silence led the way.
However, although Hawthorne, who was following behind, looked calm, his heart was filled with turmoil.
It wasn't because he felt bad, it was just that the traces of destruction in the courtyard had undoubtedly proven his suspicions.
'Perhaps you are practicing witchcraft?' He thought to himself, feeling a little worried and expecting in his heart:
‘Such power... As expected, only wizards can be considered extraordinary!
Knights... are only mortals after all."
Tuk-tuk-tuk——
"Please come in."
Hawthorn stepped into the study.
Naturally, he is no stranger to this villa study room that he designed and built by himself.
Even the study room where he currently lives has the same layout.
There is no difference at all except that the furniture used is more expensive...
Therefore, if he comes to these villas on weekdays, especially the study room, he often has the illusion of returning home.
But this time, when he stepped in.
The illusions of the past are like sand on the fingertips, disappearing in an instant.
He just felt that this room was strange.
There is no other reason——
Because of the handsome blond man sitting in the main seat behind the desk, and the indifferent coercion he exuded unconsciously, which seemed to come from a higher level of life.
"What's wrong?"
As if he noticed something strange about Hawthorne, Colin frowned and said.
The sound is like the last straw you grab when drowning.
When it fell, the pressure that made the heart tighten and the body become stiff disappeared like a tide.
Hawthorn ignored his manners and took a few deep breaths with great effort.
On the other side, Colin looked at himself thoughtfully.
'Is it similar to the pressure of higher creatures like dragon power... This is obviously not the power brought by the knight's path, it should be related to the crystal of the heart of the ancient tree."
'No wonder Renee looked a little strange when I saw her just now."
This kind of coercion, when he is not aware of it, is like breathing, passive and continuous.
And when he realizes it, this passivity is like instinct and can be controlled freely.
Now Colin took the initiative to put away this pressure.
"Good morning, distinguished Lord Nader."
After coming back to his senses, Hawthorn took out his handkerchief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and quickly greeted Colin.
He was not sure whether the pressure just now was done intentionally by Colin, so he smiled and added:
"Please forgive me for being rude."
It's just that the pressure just now was too terrifying. Hawthorn has not fully recovered yet, and his expression has lost its usual calmness and looks a little stiff.
"It's okay, it was my negligence." Colin didn't care and replied with a slightly apologetic tone.
He is a reasonable person and does not hesitate to admit his mistakes.
As for Nader, it was the pseudonym he used to come here.
"Mr. Hawthorn, may I ask why you came to see me this time?"
After saying that, Colin continued to ask.
After such an episode, he realized that there were still many strange things about his body, and he subconsciously wanted to study it carefully.
So my thoughts on talking to Hawthorn were a little dull.
However, he had a good impression of Hawthorne in front of him.
The coercion ability I gained after advancing just now was also discovered by him.
So overall, he still had the patience to continue talking to Hawthorne and was not in a hurry.
"I came here this time to invite Lord Nader."
Hawthorn paused and said straight to the point.
He originally wanted to say a few words before getting down to business, but the sudden pressure disrupted his arrangement.
But that's okay, he noticed keenly that Colin seemed to want to end the topic as soon as possible.
‘Perhaps there are other things to be busy with?”
Not daring to speculate any more, Hawthorn organized his words and continued:
"In the near future, the royal family will hold a party at the Emerald Hall in Nanao.
And I happen to have two invitations, so I wanted to ask if you are interested?"
