Demon Hunter: School of the Wolf.

Chapter 555: The Power of Dragon! Hope for the Revival of the Wolf School!
"Do not come near me!"

A loud shout was heard, and all the people around who were preparing to help were stunned and subconsciously stopped the action of greeting.

As if in slow motion, the whole body seemed to be fished out of a pool of blood. The face of the human figure could not be seen clearly. In the hazy dark green mist, the knees gently touched the ground.

In an instant.

"boom!"

With a roar that shook the earth and the sky, the hard marble floor was like a surface of water hit by a huge rock, and ripples formed like liquid.

The circle of ground closest to the "Iron Maiden" was crushed into pieces, revealing a deep pit.

The shock wave of distorted air followed closely behind, and the heavy Iron Maiden instantly lost its balance and fell with a bang. The iron pipes were waving in the air and broke one after another. The crystal container was blown away and smashed into the wall...

Smoke and dust rose up, and the whole of Kaer Morhen was shaking.

In a blink of an eye, the entire witcher laboratory was in a mess, as if it had just experienced a great battle.

Luckily, the people present were either master witchers or top-notch sorceresses.

Feeling that something was wrong, he instinctively protected himself immediately.

However, although there was no danger, it was inevitable to be in a mess if you were caught off guard.

Especially Jeroen Moreau, who stands on the opposite side of Ailin with the "Iron Maiden" as the axis.

The distance is closest, the reaction time is the shortest, and the impact is the greatest.

It seemed that he only had time to cast a Quen Seal on himself before he was blown away by the shock wave and smashed against the wall like those bottles and jars.

As a result, Ailin noticed the Quen Sign of the Griffin School.

It should be the Quen Sign.

However, it does not cling tightly to the leather armor, nor is it the same as the warlock's eggshell barrier.

The suspended leather armor was about two fists in size, and its entire body was not golden, but rather the deep blue of the ocean. It immediately dented when it was hit by the shock wave, and it also changed shape when it hit the wall, relieving the force for the caster.

No, it wasn't like he didn't react. Jeroen Moreau was very natural throughout the whole process. He didn't resist the impact at all. After hitting the wall, he landed as lightly and gracefully as a feather.

Vesemir, Dante, and Aristo did not retreat an inch.

Ailin didn't believe that Geron Moreu's reaction was because he hadn't recovered from years of imprisonment. It was more like some kind of fighting habit of the Griffin School that was different from that of the Wolf School.

"Interesting." Ailin thought to himself, as he accidentally noticed this scene.

As for Ailin himself, he was the best protected person in this accident.

In addition to the Quen shield, there was even a magic barrier cast by Vera and Aida Emin, two top sorceresses, which truly left him unscathed.

of course.

The focus of everyone's attention at this moment was neither Geron Moreau's unique griffin school fighting style nor the favored Aelin.

It was the center of the smoke-filled laboratory.

"Chief/Soi?" everyone called out worriedly.

However, because Soi reminded everyone in advance, no one did anything extreme.

"I... am fine." The answer came with a clanging sound like the sound of metal clashing, similar to Soi's usual voice, yet very different.

Suo Yi himself seemed to have noticed that his voice was a little strange. He paused and said, "I'm just not familiar with my own body and strength yet. I need... I need some time..."

Are you not familiar with your own body and strength? ! !
Vesemir, Dante and Aristo looked at each other, wondering what a vicious word these were.

What kind of enhancement could make the strongest demon hunter in the world, who has lived for two or three hundred years, unable to adapt to his own body and strength?

The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, but Soi's figure was still somewhat unclear.

Vera waved her hand impatiently, and a gust of wind blew away the smoke and dust. There was nothing intact in the entire laboratory anyway.

"Wait!" Suoyi said, as if trying to stop it.

But it was too late.

"Bang~"

I don’t know which bottle or jar was blown down by the wind and fell to the ground.

Soi's true form was revealed at this moment.

All of a sudden.

The scattered discussions suddenly stopped and the laboratory fell silent for a moment.

A creature with dense dark red scales all over its body, including on its cheeks, lowered its head and half-knelt in a half-meter-deep stone pit, supporting the ground with one hand and covering its face with the other.

There was silence in the laboratory for a long time.

"Tap~tap~tap~"

Vera waved her hand to dispel the magic barrier and walked step by step into the stone pit.

"Don't come near me," Suoyi raised his hand to stop him, "I haven't completely mastered ..."

Before she finished her words, Vera was already half-kneeling in the crushed stone powder, hugging Soi tightly.

Suoyi's whole body stiffened, and he raised his hands, not daring to touch the soft body in his arms.

“Pah-ta-ta~Pah-ta-ta~”

Large drops of hot liquid fell, wetting the stone powder on the ground and causing the separated particles to clump together.

"I'm fine," Suo Yi felt something and relaxed a little. He gave her a hug with his hands floating in the air. "I'm back..."

Vera didn't move, just hugged him tightly.

Suo Yi had no choice but to let her hold him and glanced around.

Around him, Geron Moreau looked away politely, but no one knew what he was thinking...

Ada Emin, who stared with wide eyes and was full of interest, even wanted to set up a telescope immediately to record this scene, and Vesemir, Dante and Aristo, who were also gloating and smiling, and...

Ailin looked at the scene expressionlessly.

When his eyes met Ailin's, Ailin also looked away unnaturally.

"Wei... Aida Emin, Vesemir and the others are watching..." Soi lowered his head and whispered in Vera's ear.

Vera remained indifferent, as if she had heard nothing.

Soi glanced at him, pretending to look at the ground, but observing Ailin with the corner of his eyes, and whispered helplessly:
"Ai... the child is watching too..."

Vera trembled and stiffened for a moment.

"Om~"

There was no snapping of fingers, but all the school badges in the room vibrated instantly.

Then Vera slowly loosened her arms and stood up, revealing a perfect face with delicate makeup and an expressionless face.

You can't tell at all from this face that just a few seconds ago, hot tears had flowed across it.

At this time.

Dan said, breaking the awkward atmosphere: "Chief, these scales on your body..." "It's okay, as long as you are alive," Aresto interrupted, "It's fate that you can survive."

"It's the result of Arryn's second mutation!" Vesemir corrected unhappily, "not fate!"

Upon hearing this, Aristo immediately apologized to Ailin, stroked his beard, and changed his tone: "Ah! Sorry, sorry, it's Ailin's credit, it's Ailin's credit, the entire Wolf School should thank you..."

But as he continued to praise, his voice gradually became softer.

The atmosphere in the entire laboratory suddenly became strange. Everyone remembered what Soi said before the second mutation...

Regardless of whether their relationship was good or not, Ailin was after all the biological offspring of Soi and Vera. Arestor's current behavior was like an outsider thanking someone for saving his own biological father.

Who are you thanking?

Is it the turn of these outsiders to thank us?

The atmosphere became awkward again...

Vera glanced at Ailin who was lowering his head, and contrary to her previous tenderness, she glared at Soi fiercely.

"Ahem~" Suoyi coughed twice and changed the subject, "These scales are not permanent. I think I can control them. Wait a moment..."

Just say it.

Soi carefully crossed his legs and crossed his knees, but his bare heels accidentally left a shallow groove on the hard granite floor.

But he did not make as big a noise as before. He successfully crossed his knees and closed his eyes to meditate.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, one minute, two minutes, three minutes... and finally half an hour passed with no change.

After several witcher masters looked at each other, they all turned their eyes to Ailin.

after all.

The entire secondary mutation process was designed by him, and the mutation potions were also prepared by him. No one here knows more about secondary mutation than him.

Ailin could only shake his head in response.

After all, the secondary mutation of Soi modified by Ailin was based on the secondary mutation of Thomas Moreau, using the mutation characteristics of various monsters provided by advanced genetic mutation science and the possible reactions between them.

It is equivalent to having learned quantum mechanics very well and having the successful atomic bomb plan left by the predecessor, and now having to manufacture an atomic bomb with a larger equivalent and higher material utilization rate.

Even if he didn't know much about other aspects of the atomic bomb, such as the engineering design and the selection of materials for the shell and core, it wouldn't be a big problem, and he could conduct essentially the same experiment in a very short time.

Because he does not need to improve in all aspects, it is enough to stand out at one level. It is not a qualitative change from atomic bomb to hydrogen bomb.

But if there was no original successful plan for the atomic bomb, no matter how well one learns quantum mechanics, it would be impossible to go from zero to one, because more than one discipline is involved.

Similarly, secondary mutation actually includes more than just genetic mutation science, but also alchemy, and other disciplines are mixed in with it. It’s just that genetic mutation science plays the greatest role, and most other disciplines are not involved to a deep degree.

That's why Ailin was able to use his limited skills to achieve a great result and tailor-made the design for Soyi based on Thomas Moreau's work.

But even the founder, Thomas Moreau, achieved results in the completely opposite direction through his research. How could Eyrin know all the changes that would occur after the second mutation?
Actually...

【Name: White Widow Mutation Formula】

【Type: Subject knowledge】

[Requirements: Genetic Mutation LV8 (currently LV7), Alchemy LV5 (currently LV4)]

【Function: Complete formula and breeding method for mutating giant centipedes into white widows. 】

……

Among the secondary mutations, he is not even qualified to learn the most important mutation formula of the White Widow giant centipede.

But this did not affect him. He directly used the results of Thomas Moreau, the main material for secondary mutation - the mutant protein of White Widow.

therefore.

As long as the second mutation could cure Soi, it was enough. Ailin could not consider other things, and it was impossible for him to think through all aspects in such a short time.

But then...

Based on the data after Soi's secondary mutation, he could think more carefully about Vesemir, Dante, Aristo, and especially his own secondary mutation.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that Geralt’s game progresses by leaps and bounds after his second mutation. It’s like a completely different way of playing.

But in reality, if he designed it, it could completely meet Geralt's needs and make him stronger.

Return to the witcher's laboratory.

As the next half hour came to an end and everyone began to think about how to comfort Soi and get him to accept the current situation, a sudden change occurred.

The strange pressure that grew as the dragon's might faded during the second mutation suddenly fluctuated, causing everyone to perk up.

Then the strange pressure gradually weakened, and the dark red dragon scales between Soi's eyebrows suddenly trembled, and suddenly changed from metal to gelatin, and then the three-dimensional surface became flat and turned into a dark red scale tattoo.

Immediately afterwards, with the center of the eyebrows as the core, like a stone hitting the center of the water, scales appeared one layer after another, trembling and turning into a scaly tattoo.

When the scales on Soi's bare feet were completely transformed, the tattoo faded at a faster rate, blending in with the skin as white as a newborn baby's.

When the strange pressure completely disappeared, Soi completely returned to his original appearance, not before the second mutation, but the majestic appearance when Ailin just crossed over.

wrong!

It's not completely changed back!

Soi opened his eyes, and his rare grey animal pupils turned into scarlet vertical pupils, looking so majestic that it was impossible to look directly at him, as if a real dragon had transformed into a human.

Perhaps because it looks more like a human, it is even more captivating than the previous form.

Moreover, that subtle feeling of oppression seemed to be incomparably stronger than that of Soyi at his peak.

The only flaw is that his hair disappeared due to the secondary mutation, which makes Soi's majesty seem a little discounted.

"It actually really changed back?!!"

Dante opened his mouth in surprise.

Just looking at the Chief made his scalp tingle. He felt a warning and forced himself not to draw his sword for defense.

The second mutation...seems...seems to have not only completely healed his injuries, but also allowed the world's strongest demon hunter to reach a new level.

At this time.

Dante suddenly thought of something, his Adam's apple moved, he swallowed, tilted his head to look at Vesemir, and asked stutteringly:
"Vesemir, can every witcher...can...can they...possess a second mutation?"

He didn't finish, but Vesemir and Aristo beside him knew what he wanted to say, and they looked at Arryn, the one who brought about all these changes, with fiery eyes.

Jeroen Moreau, a "newcomer" master who hasn't even forged the school's grandmaster armor, and the Wolf School's grandmaster whose chief is on his deathbed, can do it, so there's no reason why they can't.

Thinking of this, they were shocked again.

Since the success rate of secondary mutation seems to be 100%, it can be popularized to the entire Wolf School.

If it really becomes universal...

The three Wolf School Demon Hunter Masters swallowed at the same time and looked at each other with dry throats.

They seemed to see the Wolf School...

The hope of revival.
