"Number 133, the ceremony is over. ”

Listening to the loud report of the shaman's apprentice, Wayne Dunlop, who was standing on the observation platform of the ritual hall, tapped the record book lightly with the pen in his hand and said, "Open the ritual cabin." ”

More than a dozen believers divided into two groups, one on the left and one on the right, came to a "coffin" made of granite.

They first put on special air-filtering masks, then lined up in two columns, grabbed the iron ropes on the coffin lid, and shouted the trumpet while pulling the chains hard backwards.

Seeing the sarcophagus being pulled apart little by little, the shaman apprentice who was in charge of the on-site command swallowed nervously and shouted loudly: "Prepare the guards!"

Dozens of heavily armed warband soldiers, holding large shields and spears, formed an impermeable shield wall, aiming their arrows at the slowly opening sarcophagus.

The sarcophagus was first opened a three-centimeter slit, and the pale gray smoke wafted out of it and quickly dissipated.

With the harsh sound of stone slabs rubbing, the gap quickly expanded to the size of half a meter, and when you looked down from above, you could clearly see that the inside of the coffin was filled with viscous black liquid.

The liquid seemed to be alive, tumbling, flowing and swirling in the confined space.

As the gap grows larger, the liquid in the coffin flows faster and faster, and the amount of smoke spilling out increases.

A slender brownish-brown palm slowly rose from the black liquid, followed by a small arm as solid as wood wax, and finally, a male elf face with a long scar on the right eye slowly emerged from the black liquid.

Under everyone's astonished gaze, an elf with grayish-brown skin and no wisps of skin slowly sat up from the sarcophagus.

Wayne Dunlop looked at the results of the experiment under the high platform, raised his eyebrows and whispered, "This is really rare, this time it is actually a dark elf ......"

The dark elf male was shaking his drowsy head and coughing loudly, a pale black liquid still flowing from the corners of his mouth.

The shaman's apprentice walked to the back of the shield wall and shouted at the other party, "Name and identify yourself!"

Looking at the group of people in front of him, the dark elf lowered his head and looked at his body in a daze for a moment, and then whispered: "My name is Ackerman, and I have volunteered to be a member of the Holy Cult Army to fight for the glory of the Son of the Gods. ”

The shaman's apprentice opened the record book, and there was such a passage written on it.

"Ackerman Shokola, twenty-seven years old, leader of the Red Branch, voluntarily renounced his family name and private wealth. Holy Army Transformation Ritual No. 133. Physical condition before the ceremony: No hidden disease, no obvious talents, and has been vaccinated with the ability of "Flame Breath". Strength Evaluation: Normal Level, Agility Evaluation: Slightly stronger than normal, Intelligence Evaluation......

After asking Ackerman a few more questions and making sure that everything was in his mind, the shaman's apprentice looked up at Wayne Dunlop on the high platform and asked, "Mr. Dunlop, can we do the following test?"

"Yes, go ahead. ”

Ackerman, who was completely naked, first walked to the middle of a pile of dumbbells under the guidance of his shaman's apprentice and began a series of strength tests.

Later, the shaman's apprentice wrote on the record board: "The maximum snatch weight is 77 kilograms, which is slightly stronger than the average person." ”

Next, there is the weapons test.

Ackerman walked through a row of weapon racks and finally settled on a quaint hunting bow.

Drawing his bow with an arrow, Ackerman shot an arrow that pierced through the heavy stack and plunged deep into the stone wall.

The shaman's apprentice in charge of recording looked at the dark elf in front of him in surprise. But what happened next made him completely stunned.

The second arrow shot by Ackerman pierced the tail of the first arrow and split it in two, the third arrow, pierced into the tail of the second arrow, and divided it into equal halves again, the fourth, fifth, and sixth......

As if by magic, Ackerman shot only one arrow from the quiver in a blink of an eye, and on the wall a hundred meters away, there was an extra "wood flower" composed of arrows.

The pen and paper in the shaman's apprentice's hand fell to the ground, and he said to himself, "I'm not dreaming of this kind of archery......

Ackerman took out the last arrow, and the index and middle fingers of his right hand gently brushed the arrow, and the tip of the arrow was suddenly enveloped in a cloud of blue-purple flames.

With the sound of the bowstring, the arrow with the blue and purple flame cut a brilliant tail flame in the air, and the moment it hit the wall, it burst into a ball of fire that was so bright that people could not ignore it.

With the sound of violent explosions and burning, the place where the arrow stacks existed became a raging place of purgatory, and nothing remained.

Everyone in the ceremony hall looked at the scene in front of them in shock, and the huge space suddenly became silent.

Ackerman slowly put down the bow and arrow in his hand, looked at his hands, and said to himself sentimentally: "What if...... If I had had had this ability at that time, Casper wouldn't have died like that in front of my eyes. ”

Wayne Dunlop recorded every detail of the experiment and said to the group of people around him in a daze: "Take No. 133 to the barracks, and pay attention to the food taboos and environmental allergens of the dark elves. Also, clean the place as soon as possible and prepare for the conversion ceremony of the 134th Holy Army. ”

Watching everyone busy with what was at hand, Wayne turned back to his room, flipping through the lab notes and taking notes.

"The Tyrant's living experiment (what people here like to call the Holy Army Transformation Ritual) has reached No. 133, and the statistics of the experiment are as follows. 』

"Of the 133 experimenters, 4 had already died before the ritual ended, and 11 had to be treated with special measures to deal with the transformation ritual despite completing the transformation ritual but their nerve centers were damaged to varying degrees, showing signs of dementia, forgetfulness, rage, and even self-harm. 』

"The remaining 118 test subjects have shown great success, showing great success!, of which 32 test subjects have been transformed into orcs, 25 test subjects have been transformed into werewolves, 19 test subjects have been transformed into elves (including light elves and dark elves), 13 test subjects have been transformed into minotaurs, 15 test subjects have been transformed into lizardmen, 7 test subjects have been transformed into harpies, and 3 test subjects have been transformed into gigno......

"These titles come from the mouth of the Holy King, but I have to say that they sound simple and easy to understand, very vivid. 』

"Let's talk about the classification of the results of the transformation ritual. 』

"118 survivors, more than a dozen races of transformations were born, which seems random and untraceable, but I still have some patterns from it. 』

"According to my inference, human genes are the dominant gene pool in our bodies, perhaps more than 90 percent. The remaining 10 percent or less of the genes are non-human genes. 』

"The Tyrant Virus is a substance that attacks and devours genes belonging to humans, while selecting the most remaining non-human genes for assembly and replication. 』

"I'll give you an example, if a person's body has 90% human genes, 5% orc genes, 2% werewolf genes, and 1% elven genes...... The tyrant will choose the orc gene as the copy object, and transform the subject into the orc form. 』

"Pathogenic bacteria play an important auxiliary role in the transformation process. If an orc-based subject is injected with power-boosting bacteria before transformation, he will be stronger and larger than other orcs of the same type. If an elf is infused with Flame Breath before transforming, it will be easier for them to use a range of abilities related to Flame Breath and have extremely high fire resistance. 』

"The problem now is that we don't know what the result of the subject's transformation will be before the transformation ritual, which makes it extremely limited to be able to select abilities for the test subject before the transformation ritual. 』

"For example, Metal Skin is an extremely powerful ability that, if applied to an orc or werewolf, can turn their bones into hard metal, making them indestructible. However, if this ability is given to the elves, there will be a severe allergic reaction, and the internal body of the subject, due to the presence of metal bones, will be severely disturbed by elemental abilities such as fire, lightning, frost, etc., which will eventually lead to the death of the elves. 』

"Results of injecting Sutherland archaea into the subject......

At this point, Wayne Dunlop frowned deeply, hesitated for a moment, and then tore off the page on which the words were written, and burned it directly to ashes on the candle flame.
