<h4>Chapter 297: Experiment</h4>
Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
Hearing the Raider’s chuckle, Turaru who was simple and unadorned did not understand his intentions. He could only bury his head on the ground and said, “Yes.”
At this time, Zhang Lisheng was quietly trying to re-convert the faith stone in his hand into a me of faith again so he could carry out a small experiment on this young Tudenan chief warrior crouching on the ground in front of him.
In his opinions, since the spiritual monsters on the Hellfire Archipgo were willing to ept the offering of the aborigines’ power of faith, this would naturally mean that these monsters could absorb the power of faith for their own use.
In this case, Turaru, whose life had transformed after being transnted with the Gold Core fragment, which was the source of life for the spiritual monster, had a great possibility to inherit this ability of the spiritual monster.
If they established this idea, it would be very beneficial for him to develop his own ideas by having a close-up observation on the process of how Turaru would absorb the power of faith. Not only that, it was even possible to solve the problems in his mind.
Zhang Lisheng’s idea was quite reasonable, but unfortunately, it was difficult to implement.
Since the changing of his mind caused the emergence of the me of faith when he was browsing through the Tudenan’s tribal book of history, he first imagined the faith stone in his hand to burst into me through faith in silence. However, after wasting eight to nine minutes, there was still no change in the round stone.
Now that this method did not work, he instigated all the wizard power in his body to gush out into the faith stone through his fingertips. However, even when he had depleted his wizard power, there was still no sign of change in the round stone at all.
After failing two attempts, Zhang Lisheng frowned and contemted. He looked at Turaru, who was kneeling on the ground nervously for the Raider did nothing for a long time, and said, “Turaru, as the first person to seed in epting the ‘gift ceremony’ in the Tudenan tribe, you hold a special position in my heart. I hope that you can be the most powerful warrior of the tribe. For this reason, I decided to give you a gem with a mysterious power. If you swallow it, you may have the opportunity to attain even greater feats.”
“Thank you for your gift, Great Raider!” Turaru raised his hand in surprise and crawled two steps forward while kneeling.
Zhang Lisheng smiled silently and ced the faith stone solemnly onto the palm of the young tribal warrior before watching him swallow it without hesitation.
Soon, ten minutes had passed in the blink of an eye. However, there was still no sign of change on Turaru at all. Seeing that the experiment could no longer continue and he had wasted a faith stone just like that, Zhang Lisheng’s expression turned glum right away.
After a few more minutes, there was still no sign of anything at all. The young man subconsciously took out another faith stone from the animal skin pocket at his waist and mumbled unhappily, “When I don’t need you to produce any power, you actually produce it by yourself. Now that I want you to release your power, you choose to stay dormant instead...”
While he was speaking, his depressed mood caused him to squeeze the stone unconsciously. To his surprise, just with this one squeeze, the faith stone suddenly exploded and transformed into a basketball-sized milky white me that started to burn in Zhang Lisheng’s hand.
Upon seeing this milky white me of faith, Zhang Lisheng who was unprepared and suddenly obtained his heart’s desire looked stunned for a moment. Then, the confidence of having an omnipotent power in his hand rose from the depths of his heart.
After being absent-minded for a while, the young man snapped back to reality and realized that he did not feel any pain on his palm at all. He knew that just as he had guessed, he had already grown an immunity to this sort of pain after being heavily burned by the Hellfire’s tribesmen’s me of faith once. Unknowingly, he sighed in relief.
“Hopefully this time, my experiment will work...” After getting rid of all the distracting thoughts in his heart, Zhang Lisheng calmed down and finally looked deeply at the dazzling me that wrapped around his fist. Without warning, he threw it at Turaru with all his might.
At that instant, that me of faith detached from his control and easily floated onto the back of the aborigine warrior crouching on the ground.
After the me of faith touched Turaru’s ck and tough skin, it immediately spread to his whole body, turning the young chief warrior’s skin into ashes. Then, under the burning of the raging me, Turaru’s skin gradually disappeared as his body turned into a translucent look.
Countless of thick and thin green-red vascr veins that looked like ant cave cavities scattered in the mid-air densely. Some of them were even mixed with white-colored fat and red-colored muscles and tendons. Zhang Lisheng even saw his pounding heart and his pair of lungs that were contracting and expanding...
When Zhang Lisheng saw the aborigine warrior slowly turning into something terrifying like a living human specimen that had its skin stripped off. Zhang Lisheng asked with an unchanged expression, “How do you feel now, Turaru?”
The young Tudenan’s chief warrior did not seem to feel the slightest pain. Forcing his excitement within his heart, he lifted his ape skull-like head and answered with his jaw moving up and down along with the muscles around it, “G-Great Raider... I-I can feel an endless power in my body! Thank you for your gift; I will always obey your will...”
His praises were as inarticte and boring as always, but he sounded extremely sincere.
Zhang Lisheng smiled nomittally and narrowed his eyes to continue examining the aborigine. After a while, he suddenly saw a diamond-shaped round bead, that had the size of a bean mixed in the middle of a pile of munched potato in Turaru’s stomach that they could vaguely see. The stone was gradually bing brighter.
After a while, the round stone in the native warrior’s stomach suddenly exploded, turning into a me and illuminating his entire abdominal cavity until it was clearly visible.
“Ahhh.... Hoooooo...” At this time, Turaru could not help but lose his cool and scream out loud. There was no hint of pain in his scream at all. Instead, it was filled with uncontroble joy andfort.
As the aborigine warrior howled, the me of faith attached on both inside and outside of his body gradually flowed towards an area under his throat and above his chest. Without warning, a green spot suddenly appeared right there.
Gradually, the zing fire gathered continuously all at the same time; when it was slowly disappearing, it also caused the green dot to be even brighter.
By the time the me of faith hadpletely extinguished, the green spot suddenly disappeared without a trace. At this time, the skin enveloping Turaru’s body also began to reemerge again.
Even though the eye-catching green dot appearing in the aborigine warrior suddenly disappeared, Zhang Lisheng had already recognized that it was none other than the Gold Core fragment that he had transnted into Turaru’s spine.
Even though he did not understand how the Gold Core fragment in the aborigine warrior could have gone from the spine to the lower throat, the same position where the Gold Core of a spiritual monster would be, he had clearly seen how the me of faith nourished the Gold Core fragment and turned it brighter.
Of course, Zhang Lisheng was thrilled now that such a result had urred. As long as the Tudenan elite warrior who had sessfully been imnted with Gold Core fragment could utilize the Hellfire men’s power of faith, his n of the ‘expansion road of Tudenan’ could definitely sail more smoothly.
If the Tudenan could continue to expand and annex the other Hellfire tribes on the Shrimp B1 Ind, then the negative sentiments of hatred, fear, and despair that Zhang Lisheng, as the tribal Raider, would receive would definitely increase. Eventually, his wizard power could increase as well.
In this case, even though he had to take a detour, it would still be an effective use of the power of faith. However, the only problem presented to him was the issue of how he could effectively utilize it.
When Zhang Lisheng thought of this part, he said with full expectation, “Turaru, I’ve already given you more power. I hope that you can use it for the sake of Tudenan in the future! Tugra, bring Turaru in front of the other tribesmen to show how much growth his spell-casting ability has gained. Come back to tell me the resultter.”
“Yes, Great Raider!” The Tudenan headman brought Turaru to retreat with him respectfully.
After ten minutes, when Tugra appeared again in front of Zhang Lisheng, he replied with a shocked expression, “Great Raider! Turaru’s spell-casting ability has been strengthened by 10%. There’s no doubt that he’s already the most powerful person in the tribe so far! The people are...”
“10%? 10% only?” Even though Tugra’s words pleased his ears, it still made the anticipation in Zhang Lisheng’s heart to vanish into nothingness at once.
He had be the reality and spirit supreme leader of the Tudenan for more than a year already. It had also been several months since the tribe to have expanded to have a poption of 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 to, finally, 150,000 people. The power of faith that he had umted for so long had merely condensed to be 22 round stones.
Even though Turaru, who had been transnted with one-tenth of the size of the spiritual monster’s Gold Core, had his ability strengthened, when he gave full y to his power, it was merely equivalent to one-seventh or one-eighth of a newly formed ordinary spiritual monster.
Based on such a calction, if Zhang Lisheng used all the 22 faith stones in his hands on Turaru, the best result he would obtain could merely allow the first beneficiary of the ‘Super Tudenanman n’ to be on par with an ordinary spiritual monster. Such a low utilization percentage of faith was indeed very disappointing
Upon seeing the Raider’s gloomy face, the Tudenan headman wanted to rephrase what he had said just now, but this kind of lie waspletely meaningless. He could only bury his head lower and spoke in a whisper, “It’s indeed only 10%, Great Raider. However, this 10% refers to the scope of the spell, the power of the spell, and Turaru’s strength...”
“It’s enough, Tugra. No matter how you try to beautify it, it’s still only a 10% increase,” Zhang Lisheng shook his head in a nk expression and said, “You may go now. By the way, reward Turaru a pair of the sharpest iron knives once you leave.”
“Yes, Raider!” Tugra who felt more and more stressed after being by the side of the unhappy Raider secretly sighed in relief and hurriedly retreated from the wooden house.
Once he left Zhang Lisheng alone in the bark house, he sighed and jumped down from the animal leather chair that had a size simr to a big wooden bed. Taking out the remaining 20 faith stones, he walked back and forth as he mumbled, “Looks like I must go stop a taxi at the Kelvin Street in Queens on October 13th to meet with that Sir Lord after all. If I still don’t get any results from that, I guess I can only find another way slowly. Sacrifice and war are the two great things about a country! If only I can get my hands on a secret method of the Witchcraft’s Gate of Sacrifice... Sigh...”
