Chapter 336: Strengthening
The Room was now immersed in a blood-red glow, and there was a complex magic circle on the floor in the center of the room, and these rays came from the mystical patterns composed of three blood-red runes floating on the magic array, forming a regular triangle in the air. Each pattern is made up of one of the previous three dragon eggs.
These patterns enveloped the entire magic circle, not only staining the indoor space red, but also making Hermione, who was sitting in the center of the magic circle, look blurry, leaving only a dark figure.
Now that the whole magic ritual has entered a critical moment, the first step is to weed out the parts that are not needed. The first thing to consider here is the fit with Hermione, if the fit is too low, it is very easy to induce the power to lose control, and it naturally needs to be eliminated.
The second thing to look at is the demand, for example, the dragon in the world of "A Song of Ice and Fire" is actually a kind of magical beast, so the intelligence or dragon-like appearance of their beast is naturally not needed, and it can be eliminated directly.
The final step was integration and trade-offs, after all, Hermione's body was limited in what could be accommodated even once, so Ryan had to be selective.
Fortunately, Slytherin's records on body modification have some content on this aspect, and the plan developed by Teacher Luo Zhen after integrating the knowledge of several worlds has minimized the risk.
As we all know, dragons are creatures at the top of the biological chain. It can adapt to most harsh environments, and has the best intelligence among beasts. In addition to this, he has an inherently extremely strong body and a sensitivity that matches his body. On top of that, the dragon also has some innate spell-like abilities, which are the most powerful abilities of this group.
But everything in the world is balanced, and such a powerful creature will have a whole lot of problems with it. For example, the dragon's magic is matched to his soul, and this dragon must accept its intelligence in order to master its magic-like abilities. In the same way, if you want to gain the powerful body of a dragon, you may need to undergo some dragon transformation.
In short, this is a creature that has many advantages, but also obvious disadvantages. Many of the advantages of the body are bound to negative effects, and even some are simply derived effects from negative effects on people.
If you don't want to become a large kobold with a lizard head, extremely irritable or have a serious obstacle to understanding the world, then you must make trade-offs in your choice.
Fortunately, the magic array used Tianyin, which is the materialization of faith, and the dragon blood, which is the same origin as the dragon egg, so that every rule hidden in the dragon egg is turned into pictures and texts, and it clearly appears in front of Ryan, which gives him room for adjustment.
I think Slytherin did the same back then, but at that time there were still some places where the study of magic was still blank. So he only summed up a few simple things. And Voldemort, who has seen the summary of these predecessors, should have been a little impatient when he was young, and finally chose the most dangerous transformation and blood transplantation to accept these rules in their entirety, regardless of whether they are good or bad. This approach allowed him to gain a lot of strength while also reaping a lot of shortcomings.
In front of the magic array, Ryan stretched out his hand to a large pile of rule patterns, and as his magic command patterns began to change.
The rule patterns of the three groups were directly broken up, and the threads connecting the different rule patterns were cut one by one by Ryan with the help of the heavenly silver on the magic array, and finally became a large number of independent patterns.
A large number of complex runes that were difficult for the human body to bear were removed, as well as many parts that were too side effects and the same parts of the three dragon eggs. In the end, all that was left were simple runes.
"The road is simple!" Seeing the pattern that was less than 1/10 of the scale left in the end, Ryan remembered this sentence inexplicably in his mind. Then it's time to put the pieces back together.
Under the command of Ryan's fingers, the patterns began to slowly connect, and at the same time, they were also charged by the magic array below and emitted light. When all the rules patterns were finally linked, they shrank and coalesced, forming a small red ball on top of Hermione's head.
After reading it carefully, he began to chant another part of the incantation, and at the same time pulled out a pale golden celestial silver crystal the size of a peanut and threw it at the red ball. This celestial silver crystal is formed by repeatedly compressing and upgrading liquid celestial silver. Ryan only learned it from Teacher Luo Zhen two days ago. It can also be regarded as the first high-grade energy crystallization made by the Ryan Society. For this reason, he also took out most of the loot he had captured last time as a thank you gift to the teacher.
The two things, one real and one imaginary, were combined into a small ball between the virtual and the real under the impetus of magic, and then slowly descended. Finally, when it touched the top of Hermione's head, it turned into a blood-red light that merged with her.
At this time, Hermione's body showed a strange suction force to suck the energy of the magic array into her body, which should be the transformation starting to work.
This time there are not as many things as imagined, the first one is to strengthen perception, which can enhance people's sixth sense. It can make people avoid danger in many places, and it is easier to seize those fleeting opportunities and inspirations when they can do various things.
The second is the flexible body, as a flying creature, the dragon has a great balance and a degree of agility that is not commensurate with its size. This aspect of enhancement allows Hermione to have a more flexible body and balance, and can do some movements that ordinary people can't do.
The last and most important enhancement is the Tenacious Soul, which is also known to be extremely powerful. At least the vast majority of soul-controlling magic has no effect on dragons. After removing the side effects, the remaining strength could only increase Hermione's soul toughness by about half,
It doesn't sound like much, but it's actually quite powerful. According to the records that Ryan had seen before, even the most powerful alchemists and wizards in the world had all kinds of means to increase the toughness of people's souls, but the best record in history for a person without producing side effects was to barely reach this level.
As for why he didn't choose the most attractive physique or magical ability of the dragon, it was entirely because when he was analyzing the runes just now, he found that these very powerful-sounding abilities were completely bound to the dragon's body or soul. If you want to have this, you have to completely transform yourself into a dragon, not to mention the difficulty and the ability of the person who accepts the transformation, but it is unacceptable to simply transform into a beast that has lost itself.
The last glimmer of light on the magic array also disappeared, which also meant that the magic enhancement was completely over, and Hermione slowly opened her eyes.
"How does it feel?" Ryan asked.
"Hmm-" Hermione tried to stand up after feeling it, but her legs may have gone numb from kneeling for a little longer. I sat back down.
Ryan hurried over, picked it up and put it on a few cushions in the corner, then took out a cup of blood-invigorating medicinal tea and handed it over. Hermione took the tea and took a sip.
"I feel different from before, but I can't tell what's wrong for a while. ”
"It's okay, it's just past lunchtime. We still have plenty of time to feel different from the previous ones. With that, he handed over a lunch. "You can feel it slowly after eating, and I will be here with you all the time. ”
