Witcher: I Can Extract Everything

Chapter 186: Mutation

There were a total of three people walking over. They were two men and a woman. Although they looked young, judging from their temperament, they were not young anymore.

The three of them were the Apprentices recruited by the Underdark Treesea. The man and the woman were Marlow and Bertha from the Twisted Hut, and the slightly younger man was Kane, who came from Shadow Tower, just like Heath.

The three of them came to the dining table and bowed.

Bertha said, “Wizard Heath, are you coming out to get some fresh air?”

Heath nodded and then casually invited, “Yes, it’s too stuffy in the cabin. If you don’t have anything to do, why don’t you sit down and have a drink?”

The three of them didn’t refuse and sat down.

The top deck cabin was the gathering place for purebloods. The four of them were the only muggles here, so they were much more friendly.

The female Apprentice soon brought a few cups of hot cocoa. Marlow picked up the cocoa and took a sip. He sighed and said, “When I was an Apprentice, I liked this type of cocoa the most. I lived frugally for a month before I dared to drink a cup. At that time, I thought that if I became a Wizard one day, I would definitely drink a cup every day.”

Heath smiled and said, “Then, your wish has been fulfilled.”

Marlow had been a famous high-level Apprentice in the Underdark Treesea for many years. He was just short of a portion of Wizard’s Water. After accepting the recruitment, he finally obtained this portion of Wizard’s Water… and successfully advanced to a Wizard.

Marlow smiled bitterly and said, “Yes, the prerequisite is to be able to return alive.”

It was not an exaggeration for an official-rank Wizard to talk about life and death.

During this period of time, Heath had also inquired about many things related to the Bloody Battlefield. How should he put it… It could only be said that the words that Witch Cassandra said in Shadow Tower were really not to scare him…

Witch Bertha frowned and said, “It’s better to say less curses. No matter what, as Wizards, we can’t be worse than ordinary Apprentices, right?”

Like Marlow, she was also a Wizard who had just advanced.

Kane was the only Apprentice among them. However, he had reached the peak level and was not far from advancing. He was also favored by the Hilore family, so he was able to live on the top floor. He was also the only muggle Apprentice on the top floor.

Kane agreed. “Witch Bertha is right. If we don’t have confidence in ourselves, how can we get good results on the Battlefield?”

“I’m still hoping to gain the recognition of the Wizard families.”

The Bloody Battlefield was a crisis, but it was also an opportunity. If they performed well on the Battlefield, they could be recruited by some Wizard families or even marry their children, and become one of the purebloods.

After a pause, he suddenly said, “Wizard Heath, we’ve decided to establish an Offensive and Defensive Alliance. Do you want to join?”

Heath asked in confusion, “Offensive and Defensive Alliance?”

Kane nodded and looked back. Then, he whispered, “We are only muggles. Once we get to the Battlefield, it’s hard to guarantee that there won’t be any unfair treatment. If we take care of each other, we can also reduce the unfairness.”

“In case someone cowers in fear, we have decided to sign an agreement. We will advance and retreat together, and share resources. How about it?”

Heath shook his head. “We can take care of each other, but let’s forget about signing an agreement.”

Such an agreement had pros and cons. It was not something that could be casually signed.

“This…”

The three looked at each other.

Marlow said, “Wizard Heath, are you sure? Fighting alone is not a good idea.”

Bertha also said, “Yes, Wizard Heath, are you sure you don’t want to reconsider?”

Heath shook his head. “I’m sorry, the three of you.”

The three of them frowned.

It was obvious that they had come to find Heath for this matter. After being rejected by Heath, everyone’s emotions were a little strange, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.

Seeing this, Heath stood up and said, “I’m going to take a walk over there. Excuse me.”

After saying that, he went to the side alone.

After Heath left, the three of them no longer hid their serious expressions.

Marlow said angrily, “He’s too arrogant. Does he think that advancing to a Wizard is that big of a deal?”

Bertha said sarcastically, “After all, he’s a genius!”

Marlow said disdainfully, “Genius? That’s just placed among a bunch of muggles. If he’s a pureblood, he’s nothing at all. If he wants to fight alone on the Battlefield, I don’t even know how he’ll die!”

Kane said, “Forget it, forget it. We all have our own aspirations. We can’t force others to come.”

“Let’s continue to talk about the agreement…”

…

A few days later, in the cabin, in the training room.

In the spacious training room, Heath was busy in the middle of the training room, holding a runic brush and beastblood.

On the floor, a complicated hexagram magic array had been drawn with beastblood. Around the magic array were white candles, bone powder, Magic Stones, and other miscellaneous items.

This was a support magic array for mutating souls.

After the magic array was completely set up, Heath came to the center of the magic array and gently clapped his hands.

Bang!

The white candles around the magic array burned together, and the Magic Stones placed around the magic array melted one by one.

The elemental particles that they melted poured into the magic array like water and began to spread in all directions, lighting up the entire magic array.

Heath immediately sat down cross-legged, took out the Soul Mutation Potion, pulled out the bottle stopper, and drank it.

As soon as the potion entered his mouth, Heath immediately felt a chill that penetrated through his heart through his nerve fibers and into his spiritual sea. The entire spiritual sea felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar.

Heath quickly closed his eyes and settled his consciousness into his spiritual sea.

At this moment, a mass of blue translucent energy had appeared in his sea of consciousness. He could vaguely see that the energy had the outline of a human, and its facial features were somewhat similar to Heath’s.

This was Heath’s soul.

The cold energy brought by the Soul Mutation Potion quickly spread along the nerve fibers and turned into countless slender tentacles that pierced into his soul.

As these tentacles pierced into his soul, Heath’s soul began to become abnormal.

The most intuitive aspect was the color.

Previously, his soul was blue, but after this mutation energy was injected, Heath’s soul began to turn white, as if he was pouring milk into a pool of clear water.

The white energy that was injected into Heath’s chest quickly gathered, as if it wanted to occupy this place.

However, Heath’s soul instinctively repelled them. The soul energy began to tremble rapidly, trying to expel the white energy.

Heath hurriedly controlled his spiritual energy to control his soul energy so that the soul energy would not resist. Then, he guided the white energy into his chest bit by bit.

This continued for a while. Finally, the white energy gathered to Heath’s chest without leaking a single bit, stabilizing itself there.

“Phew!” Heath heaved a sigh of relief.

It worked.

But it was not a complete success.

The Soul Mutation Potion could only help a Wizard plant a seed of the mutated soul in his soul. To spread the seed throughout his body would require years of hard work and a large number of materials. It was not something that could be completed in a day…

…

The fleet headed east. After sailing for more than two months, they successfully arrived at their destination…
