"You can manipulate this power, but if there's no flames around, it's ...... Well, it's hard to gather flames. And I've tried, five or six times out of ten to be able to use power, but there are still a few failures. Also, after using an attack like the one I used earlier, I won't be able to condense flames on the blade for a while. It will feel, well, as if the power has been used up. But not physically, but ...... Mental power?"

"That's not a problem. Edward snapped his fingers, his gaze pausing at the red flame texture around her, "But on defense, can you use this thing to gather into something?"

"I don't know...... Haven't tried it yet. ”

Edward smiled lightly, his fingertips flicked, and several purple energy spheres rushed towards Claudia, but the moment he touched her, the flame streaks around the female knight's body suddenly flashed, and in the whirring sound, the energy balls were offset by the invisible and qualitative shield storage zài, and exploded a large ball of fire!

It's really good to have both offense and defense.

This power was somewhat similar to magic, but the psychic warlock could notice that there was not a trace of trembling in the magic web around him. So the way the flame is used should be similar to his psychic ability, or not exactly the same, but at least there are rules to follow. And the method of exercise,

Well, in this way, if she gives her some divine powers, no, a divine rule, then she will immediately become a veritable goddess of flames?

How about snatching the god of the 'Red Knight' to her?

Edward shook his head, throwing the boring thought away.

After learning more and more about the nature of divine power. Becoming a god had completely lost its appeal to Edward. It can even be said that it is a completely instinctive disgust.

The so-called gods are in essence. It's just a kind of being that attaches its own will to the ontology of the law—it can be said unceremoniously that the gods and ghosts of this world are basically all the same. The difference is simply that the ghosts attach their spirits to the negative energy, which is far lower than the gods.

But just as negative energy erodes the soul and makes their way of thinking more extreme and egoistic, God is also a thing that is not suitable for spiritual dependence, one can even say. Even more unsuitable—over time, the spirit of the gods that originally belonged to humanity will be eroded and become closer to the characteristics of that god.

For example, the Lord of the Dawn is self-centered. The attitude of cleansing the world of all darkness should come from the sun and the worship of the sun by the believers.

Also, in some old legends. The Mother Earth goddess Šetia was also once a traditional nature deity. A wild deity who likes to run with animals and enjoy the prosperity of nature. But now her personality has changed, and she has begun to devote more effort to helping with farming activities, although that is clearly not a natural phenomenon. Even His image has changed from the breath of nature, the giant wolf, etc., to a human woman with a scythe.

In Edward's view, this change occurred. It is likely that the flame of civilization has ignited the thorns of nature by the worshippers of Him, and the original nomadic gathering has been replaced by farming. Therefore, the requirements for Mother Earth Goddess naturally began to be different.

"So in general, the gods are monsters that change with the minds of believers...... It's the product of failure and depravity for eternity, and it's not worth pursuing!" the psychic muttered the epilogue that had suddenly appeared in his mind. Then he was awakened by the call of the female knight.

"Master?"

Claudia looked at the man, at his calm countenance. Looking at those silver eyes looking into the darkness, with a blank expression, with an indescribable aura.

Somewhat strange, very unfamiliar.

It was a direct spiritual connection between them, it was stirring, it was making her feel something, it felt as if it were someone else, no, some other creature—just the form of a human, her master, a man named Edward Vincent. But the inside has been replaced by something else...... An indescribably grand existence, far bigger than this6, the world, and even the entire multiverse.

Under that great oppression, the human soul was so insignificant that she unconsciously feared, trembled, and then, like a dream, the sensation disappeared without a trace in an instant when she unconsciously screamed softly.

Now, the person who was turning his head to look at her, that look, belonged to her master.

The joy suddenly returned with relaxation, rushing into her heart, and even the strength was lost, and after a slight stagger, she hugged the man's body and used the last bit of strength.

"What's going on?"

The knightess's arms were clenched so hard that Edward felt a little depressed. He smiled and gently stroked Claudia's bright red thread, the freshly washed head was soft and smooth, with a slight coolness, and he didn't feel the slightest strangeness as if he had just passed through a demonic flame.

"Master, you're not going to leave me, are you?" Claudia asked in a low voice, hugging the man who was shorter than herself.

"Well, of course not, we'll always be together. Why did you ask this question all of a sudden?"

"I just felt it all of a sudden...... The host you will leave. But it's obviously impossible...... It's weird. ”

"Yes, of course I will not leave you, whether it is human or God, I will not let them take you. Gently stroking and patting the female knight's back, Edward said softly, he could see the tears on the girl's cheeks without turning his head, but he could not find the source of his knightly feelings, just as with the spiritual connection between the contracts, he could clearly 'see' the fears that were entrenched in the woman's heart, but he did not know where they came from. Therefore, he could only simply comfort her until she controlled herself.

Thankfully, it didn't take long.

"I'm sorry, master, I'm so weak. I ...... for no reason."

The female knight reached out to wipe away her tears. Edward's apologetic words made Edward laugh dumbly - if a great knight who controls the rules and can kill a demon in an instant can be considered weak, then there are few beings in the world who can be called strong, right?

Of course. If it's compared to the gods......

"Master, you have used a certain method to strengthen many warriors with psychic abilities, so if it were me, would you be able to use that method as well......?" You practice with peace of mind. Just be familiar with this power, don't be anxious. I've been pleasantly surprised by your progress so far. The power to destroy the world is not as good as the power that you can control, so exercise it with peace of mind. ”

Refine the soul with spiritual innovation and strengthen one's strength. There are two conditions that are required. The first is that the person's strength is strong enough, and the second is that the manifester himself has a very high understanding of the direction he wants to strengthen. After all, spiritual innovation is not to enhance a person's strength, but to transform the power, to be precise, it is to 'wash the point'.

Edward could transform a warrior of average ability into an agility-based wanderer, thus turning his 'wasted' parts into usable power, but for female knights, psychic innovation doesn't mean anything other than slightly changing the ratio of strength to degree. After all, Claudia's power was not wasted, and Edward didn't have any knowledge of the Grand Knight's ability to manipulate the rules.

Otherwise, he himself could instantly transform into a sword master or a great knight.

There is no need to doubt it. For the current Edward, a mind-sorcerer who can manifest ninth-level psionic energy, if his soul power can be effectively transformed into force, then he will definitely be a master who is not inferior to any sword master or great knight.

But what's the use of that?

Climbing up the stairs from the ground floor, Edward continued his thoughts.

This wide, hundred-foot-diameter spiral staircase stretched like the trajectory of a giant drill, extending into the darkness beneath the Mage Tower, penetrating the strata that were almost ten times the height of the Mage Tower, which was the result of Edward's letting the earth elemental creatures 'recreation' at will in the past few days, and now, even if Edward wanted to retreat the population of 300,000 people to hide underground, it was not an inconceivable thing.

Of course, it is just hiding, and it will take longer to refine a dungeon that is well-equipped and can be used for the daily life of residents.

However, taking a slow stroll up this wide staircase and enjoying the tranquility away from the hustle and bustle seems to be a good way to liven up your mind.

"The most important thing is strength...... There is also the number, if there is a team of several hundred big knights, what kind of god incarnation, it is not a problem at all, but the problem is that even if that thing has talent to train, it takes time, and the dragon bloodline is pitiful...... If it is strengthened with divine power...... The divine power of the king has no special imprint, it's okay to put it in your own hands, if you release it, it will be easily snatched away, and the strengthening of divine power is too limited, mainly to add an attack method, but that is no different from itching for the god's doppelganger, and it is not transformed into Ultraman......"

Transformation?

The Psychic Warlock's footsteps paused.

He suddenly thought that although the resources in his hands were not enough to strengthen a strong person like Claudia, he was no stranger to this kind of change - the ability to control beast transformation with divine power had been obtained after he killed the tiger king Qin Gesi, although he still couldn't figure out the specific reason, but it didn't seem difficult to give a person the ability to become a beast?

It's really not difficult.

"Alright, try your new powers. ”

Moments later, Edward found a test subject, the knight named Carlos.

The young knight who used to be under Claudia's command is now one of Edward's private army commanders, and among the more than a thousand Imperial Elector Legions who have the ability to enter and exit the Aether Realm and directly belong to Edward, his control of power can be regarded as one of the most outstanding people, and his swordsmanship and physical condition are also not bad, and he has almost entered the level of a high-ranking knight in comprehensive calculations.

As for the process, it's much simpler.

With the mere wave of his hand, Edward had already instilled a small imprint of divine power into his mind, and the test subject didn't even realize what was actually being born - the god of the hunt, Marat, was complementary to the Tiger King Tangos in some of his abilities, which meant a more complete gift. and control.

"Use your spirit, mobilize, sense this power. Let him fill your body...... Let go of your body and mind to accept it and give it a try. The psychic mancer guided softly, causing the warrior's body to tremble slightly.

In fact, the spiritual guidance has not yet ended, and changes have already taken place.

In an instant, Carlos' blue eyes suddenly contracted. Expanded, turning into two green pupils! Among them, the strange black pupils stood up like beasts, and in a sneering voice. His clothes were torn on his hunched back, and suddenly his body swelled to become a huge werewolf two or three times his size! A body of thick brown hair spread all over his body, and his broad body with knotted muscles was almost ten feet tall, if it weren't for the thin waist and pointed ears on the top of his head. He's probably looking closer to a big bear.

A large bear the height of a giant.

Oh!

Under the bright sun in the sky. The werewolf howled in the sky, and a terrible and desolate roar was heard far away. In an instant, there was silence in the entire territory!

"Can you hear me?" asked Edward.

"Yes, my majesty," the werewolf lowered his massive head, his green eyes staring at the psychic warlock, and then he slowly knelt down. Stroke your chest with one hand. He responded in a raar, eerie, beastly purring voice, "It feels. It's amazing. I can feel ...... I've become very strong. ”

"Show me. ”

The giant wolf turned his head, reached out and picked up a piece of masonry next to him, held it with both hands, crumpled the thing into a piece of slag with a piercing loud sound, and with a wave of his hand, there were already four more cracks in a tree next to him that were several inches deep! The split-second action left a vague afterimage in place, and the ensuing wind kicked up dust, and the werewolf's body had circled around a house, regaining its footing at its original point!

That's pretty good.

Edward nodded in satisfaction.

The skin is tough and powerful, and bonuses such as quick healing, night vision, and moonlit power are also predictable. If combined with the right magic items, this werewolf alone can be compared to a high-ranking knight's man and horse! Even if you only talk about the degree on the ground, this huge werewolf can now almost compete with some gods! Although it is lacking in energy attack, it can completely rely on magic items and quantity to make up for it.

So, should we find an experimental product to test the performance of the product?

Very good results.

The power of the giant wolf in front of him made the thoughts in Edward's heart a little urgent.

A dozen werewolves, using their degrees, the magic items they carry, and the ability to enter the etheric realm, can they be hostile to a god's doppelganger?

I have to say that for Edward now, the answers to these questions are very attractive.

If the answer to that question is really biased towards the mortal side, then his actions in the future will be much easier.

Although it is bound to be much more cruel......

Making up for the gap in quality with quantity often represents more sacrifice, and the greatest role of soldiers who are inferior to their opponents is to exchange their lives for time. In a real war, they are just props used to hinder the opponent. Even if various means can be used to effectively reduce losses, this loss is not destined to be zero.

But should it be said to be expected?

Soon, Edward realized that the plan had gone a little wrong.

First of all, not every fighter has the strength of Carlos. Most of their transformed abilities hovered around the threshold of high-level knights, or the realm of the mid-stream...... But perhaps the most troublesome thing is that these soldiers who have been implanted with abilities are not uniformly transformed into orc forms - there are the most werewolves, but there are only more than thirty heads, accounting for about one-third of the total number of real yàn bodies, and the rest are a little mixed.

Tiger Man, Bear Man, Lion Man...... There are even a few cat people, as well as a wild boar man like this strange storage zài.

So this creates some problems, these orcs have different abilities, and if you want to train them to cooperate, I am afraid that you will have to put in a lot of effort. However, after the transformation, their personalities have also changed a bit - there is nothing unusual about Edward's loyalty and obedience, but if they are not specifically specified, they don't seem to be very obedient to the orders of the assigned leader, captain or whatever, often in exchange for a series of threatening roars.

It's like because those runes of divine power work in the brain, so all the 'animals' become a little stupid?

I'm afraid this will greatly reduce the combat effectiveness.

Looking at the beasts in front of him, who were difficult to even actively form into two columns, Edward's brow furrowed...... Then he raised his gaze, and in his silver eyes, he reflected the figure in the sky with wings spread and slowly descending.

"What are you doing here?"

Ariel's gaze swept over the 'animals', and his expression was visibly cold - bestials are not a species that live in harmony with humans, although they are usually formed by humans infected with some kind of disease, but the sense of isolation and alienity can make them extreme, and many species are even inherently evil (to be continued......
