Can……
Then again, if you can pursue perfection, who would be willing to settle for less?
and so……
It's so hard to choose!
Strolling through the castle gardens, inhaling the faint fragrance of flowers, Isaac slowly arrived at a... incongruous garden...
Unlike the previously trimmed and harmonious flowerbeds, this place appears somewhat messy and...unsightly.
However, everything has two sides. In Isaac's eyes, the hut made of these messy vines is a symbol of his boundless imagination!
After all, this was something he built when he was a child!
He was still young at that time, having just transmigrated, and had not yet witnessed the cruel side of this world to him; he was still full of beautiful dreams for the future.
Although he was still very weak, he directed Smith to leave behind many strange things here...
"That's weird... weird... haha~"
Chapter 140 The Magical Eye
From Isaac's current perspective, this greenhouse is absolutely awful!
Whether from an aesthetic or scientific perspective, it is absolutely awful!
Especially the latter!
The former is alright. Although it lacks design sophistication, the magical flowers themselves are beautiful. Even if they are simply put together, they are still pretty, even if they are not very useful.
But from a scientific perspective...
That's pretty ordinary. Although the magic vine is an extraordinary plant, its adaptability is actually quite low. After all, many of them are products of magical experiments, and these extraordinary plants are just for show.
Therefore, transplanting and planting them requires considerable skill. Isaac's simple act of putting them together would normally not be enough to keep them alive. Initially, it was his father, Gaia, who was investing money to maintain the greenhouse. Later, it was his older sister who found a professional arcane mage who helped them survive.
Although the greenhouse looked utterly awful to him now, Isaac still sat there for the entire afternoon.
As dusk fell, golden sunlight filtered through the vines and shone on Isaac's face. He looked up at the setting sun, gazed at the vibrant flowers under its rays, and smiled slowly.
"Ha~ How stupid... to hesitate for so long~" Isaac got up, patted his pants, and turned to leave.
He has already made his choice. The Dragon Witch is indeed powerful, but Isaac may not be that weak. Hesitating over such a trivial matter is simply ridiculous!
Even if physical modifications don't grant him any power, will he become weaker?
It's as if he learned his own physical dimension.
Having come all this way to such a fantastic world, wouldn't it be a waste not to live it the way you want?
……
An hour later, after dinner, Isaac sat in his study, deep in thought. Although he had just made a major decision, he now faced a new one...
And it involves body modification...
According to Isaac's original plan, the first part of his body he wanted to modify was his eyes; he planned to get himself a magic eye to play with.
Magic eyes are eyes with magical abilities. Unlike conventional spells, magic eyes, whether on humans or monsters, have extremely high growth potential and offer great freedom in casting spells.
Therefore, it is also the first choice for many mystical wizards when modifying bodies.
As a transmigrator, influenced by anime works from his previous life, Isaac has no resistance to things like Mystic Eyes. Whether it's the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception or Red Eyes, they're all incredibly cool!
That's fucking strong! Absolutely overpowered!
Furthermore, the Mystic Eyes in this world are extremely powerful, so there's no reason for Isaac not to get himself a pair. To this end, he specifically chose three rituals for his formal wizarding stage in order to enhance his mystical attributes and thus meet the most basic modification requirements of the Mystic Eyes.
Isaac's current dilemma is whether to modify his original eye or have a new one implanted elsewhere on his body.
For example, vertical eyes between the eyebrows are quite handsome!
Both options have their advantages and disadvantages. Modifying the original eyes is relatively easy, and there are many existing options for reference. After all, the original name of the Demon Eye Modification Surgery was Demon Eye Transplantation Surgery, and this thing was forcibly removed from the witch's body!
Adding eyes would be extremely difficult, not to mention that growing eyes on other parts of the body is highly consistent with the concept of many evil gods in mysticism, making it extremely easy for mutations to occur!
Of course, distortion is not necessarily a bad thing. If it can be controlled and guided well, it can also gain extremely powerful strength, just with a lower appearance.
Furthermore, if additional eyes are added, the number of abilities of the Mystic Eyes will be greater. The number of Mystic Eyes will correspond to the number of abilities, and all of them will be considered as a form of body modification.
Compared to modifying one's own eyes, the number of abilities is much greater, and naturally, they are also much more powerful.
Of course, the art style will also be much more unusual...
Unlike Guo Ying, Isaac didn't have any particular hobbies and wasn't interested in making himself have an arm full of eyeballs. He just wanted to have a vertical eye between his eyebrows.
only……
This is also what's troubling him now. This modification plan to add eyes is very powerful, but the price of power is that it's uncontrollable!
At first, there may only be one eye, but as time goes by, the mysterious attributes belonging to the evil god will erode the wizard along with the concept of "extra eyes", causing the wizard to have many more eyes!
At that point, you won't be able to decide how many Demon Eyes you have...
Therefore, if this modification is to be carried out, several more layers of protection need to be set up to prevent it from being corrupted by the power of the evil god.
After some thought, Isaac still chose the latter. After all, the magic eye was already cool, but the three eyes were even cooler!
Moreover, attracting the power of evil gods... might not actually be a bad thing for him!
Of course, he could choose to have both, modifying his own eyes and adding an extra one, which is feasible in practice, but somewhat inappropriate.
Because this is different from adding eyes, it will count as two body modifications. There are only nine body modifications in total at the Grand Wizard stage. The parts modified and the corresponding abilities must be carefully considered each time. Therefore, in terms of cost-effectiveness, it is best to choose only one of the two.
After making his choice, Isaac's next task is to find a Mystic Eye ability that he desires, then hunt for or create a Mystic Eye, and finally transplant it into himself.
Of course, he chose to add an extra eye, so he needed to modify the area between his eyebrows first to leave a transplant site for the Demon Eye.
At the same time, after the modification is completed, a layer of protection needs to be set up to prevent himself from being affected by the power of the evil god. This layer of protection should also be well controlled so that when Isaac has enough power in the future, he can lure the evil god here!
There's a lot to do, but not much that can be done, because the Mystic Eye has so many abilities, and Isaac thinks everything is great...
Things like the Petrifying Eye, Gravity Eye, Freezing Eye, Shapeshifting Eye, Hypnotic Eye, Pregnancy Eye, and Gender-Transforming Eye...
They are all pretty good magic eyes!
Its combat effectiveness is off the charts!
and so……
Damn it, another choice?!
Looking at the encyclopedia of magical eyes he had borrowed from his older sister, Isaac was speechless. Fortunately, many of the magical eyes in the encyclopedia were not easy to obtain, and some were even banned because they needed to be taken from witches!
Of course, some demonic eyes are easier to obtain. For example, there is a demonic eye called the Demon Eye. This kind of demonic eye is artificial. It requires extracting the corresponding concept from the flesh and blood of a demon. After transplantation, it will directly give the ability to control demons and demonize creatures. It is one of the core abilities of the Demon Dominator school.
For example, there is another type of magic eye called the Immobilization Magic Eye, which can immobilize any living being or object within its field of vision whose rank or magic power is lower than its own. It is a very common type of living magic eye.
The so-called bio-demonic eyes are different from demonic eyes like the demonic eyes that directly create eyeballs. Bio-demonic eyes are mostly transplanted from living organisms. Some are very rare, while others are very common.
Interestingly, the rarity of a biological Mystic Eye, compared to an artificial one, is not determined by the strength of its power, but rather by the rarity of the creature that embodies it.
Some living beings possess powerful magical eyes, but if the monsters that bear these magical eyes can be artificially bred or can regrow, then they are relatively easy to obtain. However, if such monsters are difficult to find and cannot be artificially bred, then even if the ability is average, they are still very rare and the price will be relatively higher!
The Mystic Eye that Isaac is looking at is a regenerable bio-Mystic Eye, and what's even more interesting is that it's one of the few transplantable witch eyes!
Although with the rise of the Witch Kingdom, the transplantation of witches' magic eyes has been prohibited, and anyone who violates this rule will be jointly hunted down and killed by the Witch Kingdom and the Truth Association!
But the world of magic is just that amazing!
In the magical world, there is a type of witch whose regenerative abilities are so powerful that they can even regenerate their magical eyes!
Thus, these witches, who would sell even their underwear and saliva to make money, started a business selling their own demonic eyes...
After all, this thing costs almost nothing!
What? I need money to recover from my injury?
How about some healing magic?
In short, under the leadership of this group of eccentric witches, some witch eyes with relatively ordinary abilities began to enter the market...
Unfortunately, although it was interesting to read, Isaac wasn't interested in such a weak Mystic Eye, even though theoretically any Mystic Eye could possess incredible power if strengthened.
However, Isaac still wanted to find someone with a higher starting point, so that he would be more motivated to improve and that it would be worthy of his status!
and so……
Let's keep searching slowly...
And so, Isaac's days returned to normal. He spent his days playing the game of Righteous Knight and Evil Wizard with his two little nephews, reading the newspaper, and searching for the Magic Eye. He was very leisurely.
In this leisurely time, time flew by, and soon it was time for the banquet to begin!
On this day, the barrier surrounding the entire Solomon Castle began to shrink, protecting only the castle's backyard, where the family lived. Meanwhile, the rest of the castle was slightly expanded by Cheryl using spatial magic.
They created a huge hall, the size of a football field, inside the castle, and the decorations were extremely luxurious!
It wasn't just luxurious compared to Solomon, it was luxurious even compared to the Earl!
But this is understandable, after all, a Grand Archmage is a noble mage, and not every earl family can cultivate a Grand Archmage.
Let alone grand arcane masters, there are very few counts in the history of the empire who have trained high-ranking wizards. The few who have done so are mostly legendary wizards or witches, who are unorthodox.
Firstly, although the arcane system is quite mature, it is still a relatively new power system, and it has only recently begun to absorb a large number of new talents. Secondly, the arcane system is relatively complete and solidified, and to go far on this path, talent, wealth, and luck are all indispensable!
Not everyone has Gaia's courage to take such a gamble, nor does everyone have Cheryl's talent.
Therefore, it's not a big problem if the banquet's standards are slightly exceeded.
To paraphrase the Imperial Uncle, after a lifetime of suffering, can't we enjoy ourselves a little?
Moreover, if the venue isn't large enough, it won't be able to accommodate so many people.
Faced with this newly emerging noble family with three members of high rank, virtually every prominent noble in the empire sent people to offer their congratulations.
After all, Solomon currently has Gaia, Caesar, and Cheryl in the high-end combat force. Among them, Gaia is rumored to be about to break through to the fourth rank of Miracle Knight. If Cheryl settles down for another two years, she will soon have no rivals among the high-ranking knights.
Low-end combat capabilities, that is, the military...
This was originally Solomon's weakness, since wealth is limited and what is given here cannot be given there. Therefore, Solomon's army was not large in scale before, basically only enough to hold the border, and had not been expanded for many years.
Let alone within the entire empire, even among earls, they are among the relatively weaker ones, but...
No one expected that Isaac would suddenly appear out of nowhere, and with his flesh magic, he could summon more than two thousand greatsword demons!
