The next afternoon, Roland received Sharon's ability report.
"So soon?" He raised his eyebrows and took the test form from Vendy. "Has she accepted herself as a witch?"
"Yes, and she's even calmer than we expected." Vendy smiled and told him about their meeting last night. "I have to say, her parents have taught an excellent child."
"So that's how it is …" Roland couldn't help but feel a little moved. In this era, someone who could think so far ahead was already considered a pioneer. Perhaps history was driven in this way. When the belief was passed on to the later generations, more and more people would pursue it until it reached a certain level, and the world would be turned upside down.
It was the same principle that a single spark could start a prairie fire.
Perhaps this was how human beings moved toward civilization.
He carefully read the test process and the magic power judgment. As a fifteen-year-old witch who had awakened, Sharon's Magic Cyclone was above average. The report even indicated that her level was comparable to some adult Taquila witches. It seemed that Phyllis was also present during the ability test. Whenever a new witch appeared, she would be the most enthusiastic one in Neverwinter.
Sharon's ability was to generate electricity, but Vendy's description of this part was vague. Obviously, electricity was still a difficult part of elementary physics.
When she increased the intensity of the electric current, the magic power consumption would increase rapidly. However, the current was as powerful as thunder and could easily pierce through wood and melt iron. When she switched to a weaker current, she had to touch an object to be effective. She could light a light bulb, but the filament could easily be burned.
Since Sharon had just awakened, her control of magic power was very unstable. Vendy concluded that she was a combat witch with the potential to assist in production.
Roland did not intend to do the test again. After all, he did not have any tools to judge voltage or current. Even if he knew these parameters, he could not get an accurate value.
Moreover, releasing high-voltage current consumed a lot of her magic power. Obviously, the continuity of power transmission was not as good as Mystery Moon's Dawn I, let alone the electromagnetic gun.
Most importantly, whether it was Anna's Blackfire or Sharon's electric current, they were all transformed from magic power and did not necessarily conform to the relevant theory. Only when the ability was transformed into another effect would he be able to match the knowledge he was familiar with.
All in all, this was an ability with great potential. What kind of evolution would occur after understanding the nature of electricity, as well as how much magic power would increase after reaching adulthood were all questions worth looking forward to. As for now, according to Vendy's suggestion, she should practice on her own and study hard at the same time, so that she could catch up to everyone else's progress as soon as possible.
Considering Sharon's strong sense of justice, it seemed like a good idea to let her join the Ministry of Justice.
A little girl who could discharge electricity, constantly patrolling the streets, and ready to arrest criminals at any time, this feeling was really … exceptionally familiar.
However, Roland did not say what he was thinking. He nodded to Vendy and said, "Let's do it. Thank you."
"It's my pleasure, Your Majesty," Vendy said with her hand on her chest.
…
After dinner, when Roland returned to his office, he found that in addition to Nightingale, Lily and Mystery Moon were also in the room. The three of them surrounded the desk and seemed to be arguing about something.
"Come and look at this." Nightingale waved at him. "Oh my god, it's exactly the same as the real thing!"
"What's exactly the same?" Curious, Roland walked to the desk and noticed that there were two pots of Bird Beak Mushrooms on the desk.
"Uh … what's wrong with these mushrooms?" It was not true that they looked the same. One of the mushrooms was slightly shriveled, like the stock in the kitchen, while the other was much more juicy. He pinched the stem of the mushroom, which was relatively plump, and the juice inside immediately gushed out. "It's quite fresh. Did Lightning just pick it?"
Nightingale and Mystery Moon both turned to look at Lily.
The latter shrugged and said, "I used magic power to accelerate it."
"Oh … it's magic power," Roland replied casually. Then he suddenly froze. "Wait a minute, what? You used magic power to accelerate it? "
"Your Majesty, the form of her condensed magic power is somewhat different from before," Nightingale said. "If the first evolution was a purple reptile, now it has more patterns on its body, and the total amount of magic power has also increased." She paused for a moment. "In other words, Lily's ability has undergone a second evolution."
"But it's still a worm!" Mystery Moon added, and of course, Lily rolled her eyes.
"Is that so?" Roland happily picked up the mushroom and carefully looked at it. Soon, he understood what Lily meant by "accelerate it". "You can now make the magic worm swarm into the form you want?"
"Yes, it's only limited to what can be seen with a microscope, and I have to find a target that can be fused before I can proceed to the next step of assimilation." Lily nodded. Although she pretended to be very calm, the light in her eyes betrayed her pride. "Since the tiny worm seedlings produced by the Bird Beak Mushrooms are easier to observe, I chose it for the experiment."
She was probably referring to the fungal spores, which were the basis of the formation of fungi. Roland could not help but be excited. Perhaps for Lily, any living creature that was invisible to the naked eye, or even the smallest worm, would be under her control.
"Good job!" He stretched out his hand and rubbed her head.
Unexpectedly, Lily did not avoid it, nor did she roll her eyes. Instead, she lowered her head and accepted Roland's praise.
"Not good at all," Mystery Moon complained. "You don't know, the bedroom is completely uninhabitable now! There are Bird Beak Mushrooms everywhere, and even the bed is covered with big white umbrellas. It's like the Misty Forest after a rain! "
Lily's cheeks suddenly became a little red. She stared at Mystery Moon and said, "I, I don't know why it became like this … At first, the worm seedlings couldn't turn into Bird Beak Mushrooms no matter what. I thought it was a problem with the mother, and then I changed to another one. I didn't expect that suddenly the whole room would be filled with mushrooms."
After understanding the whole story, Roland could not help but laugh. Based on his pitiful biological knowledge, he vaguely remembered that unlike a seed that could grow into a tree, a single mushroom spores could not grow into a mushroom. No matter how much it assimilated, it was still a spore. It was only after the mother had changed and combined with another spore that it quickly grew into a mushroom. As for why it was everywhere, it was very likely that the mother that was left floating in the bedroom had assimilated all the bacteria in the room into the Bird Beak Mushroom spores.
"Let's have a mushroom feast for lunch tomorrow," he said excitedly.
Without a doubt, Lily's ability after her second evolution was not limited to sterilization. As long as it could be observed, it could be transformed on a large scale. The cost was almost zero, and it could also multiply and expand like normal microorganisms. It could be called a perfect miniature army. Whether it was used for food production or to prepare for future wars, she could play a great role.
