Chapter 50 The Heart of Beasts
"Parameter correction...each bloodline is stable..."
Knox vaguely heard a plain voice saying something he couldn't understand.
His consciousness gradually became clearer and he began to recall his own experiences. He remembered that he seemed to have just sent the crown prince to the hands of the woodland witch - it seemed to be a wizard, and then he was too seriously injured and fainted, and then...<
/p>
"Hey!"
The intense fear and pain caused Knox to stop recalling. He vaguely remembered the scene of a few pieces of flesh being separated and then being stuffed with more strange flesh.
His intuition told him that it was best not to try to recall these memories.
His current state is very comfortable. Although his eyes are closed, he can feel that his body is soaked in a viscous and warm liquid. There is no strength in his body, but surprisingly he feels as comfortable as returning to his mother's womb.
p>
"It's time to wake up, Knox!"
Bang!
The viscous liquid suddenly evacuated, and Knox couldn't control his body and fell directly to the ground.
Fang Nuo looked at Knox, who was twitching on the ground, and asked Shadow Demon to write down a piece of data: the consciousness has been closed for too long, creating a gap with the body, and it will take more time to take over the body again.
Shadow Demon gave advice: You may not close your consciousness in the next experiment, but you need to pay attention to the scale, otherwise there is a risk of personality collapse.
"Ha, ha!"
Knox felt that his body was so unfamiliar. He couldn't control his arms and legs. He couldn't even control his balance. It was even difficult to sit up.
"It would be great if I had four legs. It would be easy to stand up."
Then he quickly felt something coming out of his body, supporting him and slowly standing up straight.
Knox happily wiped away the mucus on his face and opened his eyes.
What comes into view is a light blue glass cover, and outside the cover is a wizard in black robes. He seems to be recording something. His eyes are curious, and he seems to be looking at some strange-looking puppy on the roadside.<
/p>
His vision gradually condensed, and he saw his reflection on the glass cover.
There is no trace of his body, his strong muscles are directly exposed, all the scars on his body are gone, and his skin is as tender as a newborn baby.
His appearance is still his own, but he looks much younger, but his hair is gone, and his shiny bald head looks a bit sinister.
Knox looked at his hands, clenched his fists, and felt a majestic and violent power erupting in his body. This power was far beyond before, and it was intoxicating.
He lifted his four legs, strong and flexible, full of explosiveness...huh?
Four legs?
Knox looked down and saw that a piece of tissue had sprouted from his waist, which looked like the body of a deer or a horse, and two additional recurved legs had grown!
Compared to human legs, the shape of the bones of these two legs is more like that of some kind of canine, but they are covered with a layer of human skin.
But not only did he not feel fear or nausea, but he felt that he was born that way, and there was no obstacle to controlling them.
"Yes, the experiment was successful. Come out, Knox."
Fang Nuo lowered the glass cover, exposing Knox directly to the air.
Soon, the skin on Knox's body was no longer delicate, hardened rapidly, and turned silvery white. Occasionally, blue arcs could be seen, giving it a ceramic-like texture.
And a pre-edited memory flooded into his mind, making Knox immediately understand the current situation.
After completing his mission, his body was riddled with holes and he only breathed his last breath. It was the tower master who took pity on his bravery and used various precious medicines and resources to transform his body.
Now, after sleeping for eleven years, the transformation is finally completed and it is reborn.
"Tower Master!"
After understanding the reason, Knox naturally put away his secondary limbs, knelt down on three knees, and saluted Fang Nuo - this memory also contained a simple guide on how to control his abilities.
"[Knight of Beasts], what do you think of this name?"
"Thank you to the tower master for giving me the name. I will never bring shame to the name of [Hundred Beasts]!"
After accepting the name, complex blue rune patterns appeared on Knox's body and flickered for three breaths, then faded away.
"Very good, the contract is established. Go to the biological warehouse to find some useful helpers to collect mythological relics and legendary items in this world for me."
"Yes! Tower Master! My subordinates will go all out!"
As an orthodox knight, Knox strives to move closer to the eight virtues. The monarch he served before was the princess of the Blue Dragon Empire, and he was given the important task of protecting the crown prince. He believed that he had done all this with all his strength and had no regrets.
.
Now that he wakes up, the monarch he is loyal to is naturally the tower master who gave him new life!
"Very good."
Fang Nuo nodded slightly. It is indeed good to train people from this plane to serve as subordinates. Unlike the modern civilization of the zombie world, the civilization here is relatively simple.
Knights still pay attention to the eight virtues: humility, honesty, mercy, heroism, justice, sacrifice, honor, and spirituality.
As long as a knight has one virtue that he upholds, he is worthy of praise from the world.
If you were a survivor in the zombie world, you would sneer at these virtues, but most people would stab their superiors in the back without any psychological pressure at all.
This is why Fang Nuo attaches great importance to Zhang Yuhua. There are really too few loyal talents.
After giving Knox the task, I didn’t rush to send him out to carry out the task. Instead, I let him get familiar with his new body first.
Fang Nuo's transformation of him was comprehensive - it can also be said to be very complex, with the bloodlines of hundreds of violent beasts mixed and implanted into it.
Originally, Fang Nuo wanted to do a bloodline fusion experiment, but then he discovered that ordinary beasts have no bloodline at all, only a few gene fragments worth using.
It was useless to fuse them reluctantly, so the raw materials for bloodline fusion were turned into violent beasts. However, although the violent beasts were stronger, they were not much different from the bloodline of ordinary beasts.
Because they rely on dragon blood to become stronger, even the advantages of hundreds of beasts combined cannot match the power of Arthur's bloodline - it may seem to surpass Arthur in the short term, but in terms of potential
It would be much worse.
But after all, it was the result of hard work. Fang Nuo didn't want to waste it, so he integrated and upgraded Knox into the [Heart of Beasts] that can change more freely.
As for his blue porcelain skin, it can be regarded as a bonus from Fang Nuo. It is extremely hard, resistant to fire and high temperatures, and can also absorb heat energy and convert it into power - just basking in the sun can sustain life without eating.
As long as you have enough physical strength and energy, you can mobilize the hearts of the beasts through your mental thoughts, so that you can show the characteristics of some violent beasts. As your proficiency increases, more and more characteristics can be displayed at the same time.
"I have never seen the final form of the Heart of Beasts. I hope you can develop this ability well."
After encouraging (fooling) Knox, Fang Nuo took him to the biological warehouse.
Violent beasts have a natural affinity for the Heart of Beasts, and in a sense regard creatures with the Heart of Beasts as kin.
Therefore, in addition to directly fighting with the body, controlling beasts is also a way of fighting.
In the end, Knox selected eight violent beasts. Fang Nuo thought about it and made them into lower-level beings of the Heart of Beasts: [Heart of Wild Beasts].
"Catch eight suitable knights and replace their hearts with this, which will give them the ability to violently transform into wild beasts, and they will obey your orders."
——It’s not as easy to control humans as it is to control animals!
"Tower Master, I'm afraid this is against the way of a knight." Knox frowned after hearing this.
Fang Nuo held his forehead and felt that he had made a mistake. He had been a good person in the Yana continent for too long, but he did not implant the obedient [Shadow Guard Module] in his body.
But the problem is not big. If the shadow guard module is implanted, it will be of little use. If you do something that strongly goes against your heart, it may be scrapped directly.
Knox's time with him was too short and he didn't realize what kind of wizard he was, which is understandable.
So he said in a persuasive way: "Knox, are you going to disobey the monarch's order?"
Knox immediately knelt down on one knee and said: "I dare not violate it, but this is regardless of my personal wishes..."
Fang Nuo clasped his hands and said quietly: "Won't you find those knights who are about to die or are guilty to replace them?"
"There is no distinction between good and evil in the heart of a wild beast, but whether you save the world or punish the evildoers, it all depends on your thoughts."
Knox stopped talking, looked thoughtful, and responded in a low voice: "Yes! Tower Master!"
Looking at Knox's leaving figure, Fang Nuo put down the shining hand behind his back.
Chapter completed!
