"In short, it's divinity training and demonic body training." Fatty Lin used the sentence that he and his avatar had discussed as a summary of Fen's current situation. He added, "But after making so many changes, I'm not sure what this body can do now. I need time to adapt and research. "
For Fen, this was a path that she had never thought of before. There was no need to ask whether it was feasible or not. After all, there was a result right in front of her. However, it was hard to tell whether this approach was better or worse than her own way of shaping the body with power.
The two girls who stood aside as if they were listening to a book from heaven, as well as Marchioness Barland who had sneaked into the small meeting room and sat down in a corner, naturally had no clue about the discussion between the two Mages. Because it was too slow to talk in the common language of the Underworld, Fatty Lin simply used Draconic. A high-frequency syllable could contain hundreds of meanings.
Fortunately, Fen was also proficient in Draconic and knew someone's habits, so she could understand the "improved" version of Draconic that someone spoke. Otherwise, even if the black dragon Augustus came, or even other dragons, they might not be able to understand the Draconic that someone spoke, because there were too many new words that did not exist in the original Draconic.
These new words were actually all proper nouns from the knowledge of Earth. Lin Feng had only compressed the pitch of these words and did not do anything else. Just like the different languages and cultures on Earth, most of them used transliteration to deal with foreign languages instead of forcefully using free translation.
For the short conversation at the beginning, it was still in the common language of the Underworld, but the high-frequency syllables at the end were very disturbing to the three girls, giving them a splitting headache. In the end, they simply covered their ears with their hands, not wanting to hear anything.
When the two finally finished their discussion, the three girls breathed a long sigh of relief. And Hallumi, who couldn't hide her curiosity in the bottom of her heart, widened her eyes and asked her teacher, "Teacher, how is your change different from my sister's?"
"So you're saying that all that I've said and wasted so much saliva just now was all in vain. You didn't listen to a single word? "
Fei Lin ridiculed without any hesitation. The two girls could only pout and sulk. Was that conversation in dragon language something that normal people could understand? Why did this man make it sound like she was the one at fault?
However, even though he was complaining, Fei Lin still tried his best to explain in a way that was easy to understand, "Let's use an analogy to describe it. If the human body were a house, your sister's approach would be to tear down the house and redesign everything. The advantage of doing so was that he could strictly design the house according to his own ideas and needs, including the room configuration, the number of bathroom equipment, the decoration style, and the furnishings. Everything existed for the sake of his own thoughts. — — "
He took a sip of coffee to moisten his throat.
"However, doing so is not without its drawbacks, and that is that you have to be very comprehensive in your considerations. Because as long as there was one thing missing, it meant that this new body would lack a certain ability. His body was not like a house, which could be dismantled and redecorated at any time. This brings about considerable limitations and worries for the application of this method. "
Fen did not comment on his criticism, nor did she express any opinions. Because the advantages and disadvantages that Lin mentioned did exist and were not aimless. The reason why she dared to make a new body for herself and Shi Dong, her loyal bodyguard, was because she was certain that she wouldn't make any mistakes.
Lin continued, "My situation, on the other hand, is different from your elder sister's. She dismantled the house and rebuilt it, while I replaced the materials used for the existing house with better ones step by step. It's like upgrading the original bamboo and mud corner house into a reinforced concrete building. So from the outside, the house is still the same house. However, the inside of his body had changed greatly. — — "
Looking at the two girls' hopeful expressions, as well as the Marquess who was sitting in the distance and eavesdropping, a certain someone only felt that it was funny. However, he did not keep them in suspense, because the Lich was also waiting. The warning from before was not a joke.
"— Of course, this method has its advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that because it is the body that I am most familiar with, there is no problem of getting used to or discomfort. The main thing is to adapt to the new abilities brought by this new body. The disadvantages are also very obvious. — — "
Fei Lin patted his round and bouncing belly.
"— That is, his original physical characteristics, whether good or bad, have all been preserved. But in general, although this body still has the appearance of a human, it is the foundation of a demon. Maybe it is hard for you to imagine, but a demon's body is healthy to the point that it can't be any healthier. I've never felt so energized like this in a long time. No wonder they have nothing to do all day and always like to cause trouble. "
After saying that with satisfaction, Lin seemed to have thought of something and added, "Although this new body is the foundation of a demon, it doesn't mean that I've become a demon. I've only borrowed their method of forming a physical body. I have just explained the specific situation once. It is not my problem that you don't understand. It is like a robot, after all, it is a machine and not a human. My situation is similar to a demon's human, but I am still human and not a demon. "
Perhaps a certain someone did not care about his body size that had lasted for the past 20 or 30 years. But this did not mean that the two apprentices would get used to their teacher's appearance, especially when he was so fat that he could not move freely.
At the very least, he had been in danger most of the time in the Labyrinth for almost 20 years. If he wanted to escape, he had to first get rid of the negative effects of being fat. Not to mention, the food here was not so delicious that a certain someone would not eat it and become fat.
But the girls still noticed that there was something unclear in their teacher's words. Hallumi asked, "Teacher, you said that this new body has a new ability. What is it? You see, some of the more powerful demons can become bigger, more muscular, or change into other forms. Can you transform like them? "
This was a good question. A certain someone who had just recovered from the transformation did not seriously think about this part. But since his apprentices asked, Lin began to think about the possibility.
What was the mechanism of transformation? There were two types of transformation that most people could think of. One was an illusion, and the other was a change in reality. The former was not considered, but the latter still had some rules to abide by.
According to the law of conservation of mass and energy, the sum of mass and energy of an object should be equal before and after transformation. When a decrease was measured, it was usually because part of it turned into entropy and dissipated. In other words, it was physically impossible to transform from an ordinary human into a giant like the Mega Overlord. Unless it had the mass of a giant when it was in its ordinary form, which meant that its density was frighteningly high.
That was generally the case …
But in the Labyrinth, there was a phenomenon that had never been seen on Earth, which was the convergence of pure energy into matter with mass.
One living example … No, it should be said that there were two living examples right before his eyes: Fen and Shi Dong.
A large amount of power simulated the moment of the origin of life, starting with the creation of amino acids, then proteins, RNA, cells, and even biological individuals. It could be said that the method used by Fen reenacted the process of the birth of life.
However, if the transformation mechanism was used in such a way … it didn't seem like a demon on a battlefield would say, "Hey, bro, wait for me to transform. It'll take at least three days, and at most a month and a half, for me to fight you again. "
As for the more temporary transformation, it might be possible to speed up the conversion of energy into mass. However, Roland hadn't studied related spells, so he couldn't compare. Also, the temporary transformation mechanism wasn't what he needed.
The other transformation was more like plastic surgery or Transformers, which was a purely structural change. The foundation of the bottom layer was the same, and the mass wouldn't change at all. The only thing that had changed was its appearance.
In this way, it was possible to achieve a semi-permanent transformation. However, as a normal human being … no matter if they were normal or not, they couldn't achieve a structural change like Transformers, so this option was ignored. So, what ordinary people could do was to change their appearance in a similar way to plastic surgery.
The plastic surgery here wasn't like the plastic surgery clinics on Earth, which required surgery and injections. Instead, it was to use magic to change one's appearance and achieve a semi-permanent transformation.
Speaking of which, among the third-circle apprentice-level spells, there was a spell called "Transformation." However, that spell was more like a temporary transformation. As long as the spell was canceled or dispelled by someone else, or one's power was exhausted, he would return to his original appearance. If he wanted to achieve a semi-permanent transformation, he had to use other spells.
Because he had never done or considered such a thing before. Therefore, for the first time, Lin chose to use Shapeshifting with Shapeshifting. The principle was to use his own body as a magic material and use Transformation to mold himself into what he imagined.
Transformation was like a rough embryo or a sketch that could be redone at any time. Transformation, on the other hand, was like a chisel or a hammer that fixed the rough embryo according to the sketch.
He didn't know if this method would work. With uncertainty in his heart, Fei Lin took a deep breath and cast a spell on himself. Instantly, all the fat on his body was caught in an unknown low-amplitude and fast vibration.
Such an abnormality naturally caused the other two girls to be worried. However, as usual, as the calmest person, Fen stopped the two girls who wanted to stop her teacher and watched quietly from the side. Because in her observation, although the man's Transformation wasn't so standard, she didn't have any doubts about his safety.
Fatty Lin's whole body didn't shake for too long. When he finished casting the spell, his whole body became thinner, as if he had become a different person.
His appearance was still the mysterious version of himself, but his body became much stronger. However, he didn't make himself a pile of muscles, but paid attention to the body's coordination and flexibility. As for the black tortoise robe, it automatically shrank in size and still fit him well when he put it on.
However, he opened the water mirror and looked at himself. The only thing he sighed with emotion was, "If the people on Earth knew that I could lose weight by shaking my fat, they would all be furious. At least half of the population will go crazy from anger and turn to me for punishment, right? "
