Chapter 33: Perfect soul change

　　 Rehn knows too deeply about the hardness of gold-eating ants. In the afternoon in that shop, the owner used a hammer to kill the ants as if they were hitting iron. It took a few hard hits to kill one.
　　 The shopkeeper is just an ordinary person, and killing a few gold-eating ants in a row will not have much energy.
　　 Ren's physical stamina and strength are of course much stronger than ordinary people, but he has no tools at home, and he has never cooked before, even a kitchen knife.
　　 can't kill the golden ant with bare hands.
　　 In desperation, Ren decided to go out and buy a tool.
　　 That Hogan won’t find him during this time, right? If it's really so unlucky, then I will admit it!
　　 He remembered that there was a blacksmith's shop on the street next door, not far from the apartment. It had just been transformed into a mechanical craftsman shop not long ago, selling all kinds of tools, there should be suitable ones.
　　 hid the gold-eating ants, Ren quickly walked downstairs and crossed the street to find the artisan shop.
　　Because it was getting late, there were no customers in the artisan shop, only a person like the owner was sitting behind the counter, guarding the contents of the shop. Looking at the boss's attire, the canvas apron is stained with oil, the waist is round and the edges are not trimmed. He should be a mechanic.
　　Mechanical craftsman is not an extraordinary profession, but ordinary people who have mastered mechanical technology, similar to the combination of mechanics and blacksmiths in the past.
　　Of course, most of the craftsmen in the empire have inextricable relationships with the mechanical union.
　　 The mechanical craftsman seemed to be very tired, Ren came in, he just glanced at him, and had no intention of getting up to entertain him.
　　 Rehn's gaze swept around in the shop and found that the weapons here were very complete.
All kinds of long swords, short swords, two-handed swords, broad swords, rapiers, stabbing swords, half-handed swords, there are more than a dozen kinds of swords alone, as well as axes, daggers, shields, bows and arrows, gloves, and armor for defense , Mail, of course, there are some tools in daily life, such as kitchen knives, hammers, scissors, and so on. Several walls are covered, and some are even piled directly on the table for guests to try.
　　 Ryan didn't want to waste time and went straight to the hammer weapon.
　　The defensive insects like gold ants have limited damage to them with swords, and they still need blunt tools. The most suitable one is a hammer.
　　 It is also a coincidence that Renn's nickname in his previous life is called "Hammer".
　　 His name Shi Jingkui was taken by his grandfather who had participated in the war. His original intention was to calm the frontiers. Because of the homophonic "strength hammer", he was given the nickname since he was a child. Classmates and friends call it this way, and I am used to it.
　　 Participated in a metalworking internship when he was in college, Renn also made a hammer with his own hands and couldn't put it down.
　　 At that time, a few roommates thought he liked hammers so much, and they brought them back to the dormitory to store them, so he often joked, jokingly thanking him for not killing...
　　 For a while, Rein missed those roommates a bit, but unfortunately he would never see him again.
　　 He put aside his sentimentality, picked up a hammer casually, and waved it a few times.
　　 "It's too light."
　　 This hammer is not a combat weapon, but a daily tool. It may weigh only two or three pounds. It is as weightless as holding a straw in your hand.
　　 There is also a hammer as a weapon. It is called a warhammer in Allenus. Renne just looked at it and shook his head to give up. These warhammers were too heavy. The head of the hammer alone was as big as the head. It was obviously for berserkers or iron guards. They could be moved, but they could not be swung.
　　 He was anxious to go back, so he chose an octagonal hammer at random.
This kind of hammer is exactly the same as the one used on the construction site in the previous life. It is also called the sledgehammer, but the hammer head is heavier, about 30 pounds, and the hammer handle is almost one meter long. It is also made of all iron and covered with bread. A layer of shockproof leather.
　　Rain held the sledgehammer in his hand, as if he heard a magical voice yelling: Eighty! eighty! eighty……
　　 The hammer is not expensive, as long as three silver crowns.
　　 Ryan paid the money and left, took the hammer back to the apartment, nothing happened.
　　 He thought for a while, hammering and killing gold ants in the apartment, the movement was too loud and it would affect others. So he brought two glass jars downstairs and, with the sound of all things, took advantage of the night to avoid everyone and entered the remote corner behind the apartment, spread a thick cloth on a stone, and poured out a gold-eating ant.
　　 This ant has no elements, it's just for practicing.
　　The gold-eating ants have been soaked in the potion for a long time without eating, and they are already half dead.
　　 Ren raised the hammer with both hands, after aiming, he hit it down with all his strength. With the assistance of the mobile phone gyroscope, the power of the whole body was concentrated on the hand, passed to the sledgehammer, and hit the gold ant with accuracy.
　　 With a muffled sound, the gold-eating ants became a mass of rotten meat.
　　 Ren took out the soul stone and approached the ant's corpse. A soul quickly flew out and injected the soul stone. Even if the sky is dark, he can clearly see that the devil soul in the soul stone is just a cloud of pitch black, without any elements.
　　 He put down the soul stone and said in his heart: "The critical time has come."
　　 carefully poured out the gold-eating ant with three elements. It was obviously better than the previous one. It started to crawl immediately, but at a slower speed.
　　 Rehn was a little nervous, this gold eater is really different.
　　 He spat a little bit of saliva on his palm, rubbed his hands a few times, raised the hammer and hit it again.
boom!
　　 After the muffled sound, Rehn's hand sent a counter-shock force, the tiger's mouth was a little numb, and the hammer head was actually bounced away. The gold-eating ant received such a heavy blow, but it did not die, but the body was a little broken, and six iron-like legs made white marks on the stone, splashing sporadic sparks.
　　 "Fuck, so hard!"
　　 Rehn couldn't believe it. Seeing that the gold ant was moving again, he hurriedly shook the sledgehammer again, smashing it hard, while muttering in his heart: "Eighty, eighty, eighty..."
　　 Seems like a mess, but under the control of the gyroscope, each hammer accurately hits the gold-eating ant without wasting the slightest amount of power. Its body slowly deformed, the upper limbs of its legs separated, and it was hit with more than a dozen hammers in succession, and finally it was smashed into a flat corpse with a puff.
　　 Rain quickly threw away the hammer and used the soul stone to absorb the demon soul.
In his expectant gaze, a demon soul flew out, quickly filled the white crystal in his hand, and turned into a dark and deep black gem. You can vaguely see the three element runes flashing away, if there is no soul. Eyes, it is difficult to find their existence.
　　 "Success!"
　　 Ren made a fist and almost jumped up excitedly.
　　 This gold-eater ant will become his first demon soul, taking a solid first step in the road of fighting wizards!
　　 After being happy, Ren took away the soul stone, only to find that the cloth on the ground had been smashed to pieces by himself, and the stone underneath had also cracked.
　　 He quickly cleaned up the scene, threw the bodies of two gold-eating ants into the sewer, and returned upstairs with a hammer.
　　 With all the money, Renn left the apartment overnight.
Instead of returning to the Basil Hotel, he found an ordinary small hotel in Honiton District, which is only a river away from the Silver Star District. He eavesdropped outside for half an hour to confirm that there are no extraordinary people inside, and then opened a room. Live in.
　　 It wasn't until late at night, when it was almost dawn, that Rennes fell asleep at ease.
　　 I slept until noon in this sleep, and Ren got up refreshed, had a delicious meal to fill his stomach, and then boarded the carriage to the Violet House.
　　 As long as today is past, to become a transcendent, there is no need to be so afraid.
　　 The carriage arrived smoothly.
　　 As soon as Ren got out of the car and went in, she saw Tarini was already waiting. She smiled and said, "Mr. Ren, good noon."
　　 "Ms. Tarini, can the ceremony be held today?"
"of course."
　　 Ren nodded, and handed over sixty golden shields to the waitress at the front desk, and then followed Talini to the back of the Violet House and entered a spacious room.
　　 Unexpectedly, the half-elf Viola was also inside. She was still dressed in a simple and elegant robe with a graceful figure.
　　 Just standing there, she seemed to be a glimmer that made people unable to ignore.
　　 "Ms. Viola." Renn said hello with a strange look in his eyes.
　　The soul-changing ceremony can be performed alone, but it is best to have an experienced host, and an extraordinary person who can cast spells is the best. Tarini is very suitable. Yesterday, I had already said that Tarini would help me in this soul change. If I want a better host, I have to add money.
　　 Viola smiled, like Mu Chunfeng said: "Mr. Ren, Talini will preside over the ceremony today. I'm just here to watch, don't you mind?"
　　 "No." Renn was still a little puzzled.
　　 As the owner of the Violet House, Viola has experienced the soul-changing ceremony how many times, what's so interesting about it?
　　 Considering that after the ritual, she had to discuss the purchase of the World Tree Seed, so she could only suppress her doubts.
　　 This room is specially used for soul-changing rituals. There is an operating table-like platform in the middle, which is engraved with a large number of runes to form a complete magic circle.
　　 There is a table next to the rune table. There are a few things on it, namely a syringe, a tube of soul eater and a white scroll.
　　 "Mr. Rain, if you are ready, just lie down."
　　 Tarini spoke calmly, trying to create a relaxed atmosphere and reduce stress for Rennes.
"Ok."
　　 Rain took off his coat and threw the coat aside in a casual manner. In fact, it contained all his belongings, including all the money and the devil soul of the gold ant.
He lay on the rune table wearing only a shirt. Tarini tied her hands, feet and waist with a tough belt, and explained: "Because the ritual is too painful, in order to prevent you from struggling to consume energy or falling from the rune table, you must be fixed. live."
　　 Ren hesitated, thinking that he didn't need to fix his body, and after being tied up, he would really be at the mercy of others.
　　 He wanted to refuse, but in the eyes of the soul, Tarini and Viola did not have any malice, so they accepted.
After 　　 is fixed, the whole body cannot move, only the head can turn left and right.
　　Talini picked up the scroll and uttered a short spell. The scroll unfolded immediately, and light golden characters flew out of it, sinking into Ren's forehead.
　　 was blessed with spiritual protection, Ren felt as if his heart had become calm, he had a special sense of security, and it seemed that nothing had changed.
　　 Then, Tarini activated the rune table with a magic crystal.
　　 With a buzzing sound, Ren felt a slight warmth under him, and an indescribable energy enveloped him, making his perception of the outside world more acute.
　　 Tarini drew the soul eater into the syringe, and said solemnly: "Mr. Lane, it's about to begin."
　　 Renn nodded slightly.
　　 Then, Tarini plunged the needle of the syringe into his neck artery. Her hand was very stable. Instead of finishing all the injections at one time, she pushed forward slowly. The injection of one third of the medicine stopped and stopped.
　　 Ren has already understood that the weight of a soul eater is about 30 ml.
　　In the world of Ellenus, one milliliter is equivalent to one "gillon". Only ten gallons of potion can make a person complete the initial soul transformation, unlock the ability to fuse demons, and become an extraordinary person.
　　 But this is only the minimum requirement. If you want to be a spellcaster who can meditate, you must continue to inject potions after completing the initial transformation.
　　 Every five gallons of potion is injected, the soul change is further.
　　The threshold for the caster is to inject fifteen gallons of Soul Eater, and reaching twenty gallons is eligible to become a wizard and any extraordinary profession.
　　 Further up, every additional gallon potion used is a difficult improvement.
　　 reached twenty-five gallons, even among wizards, he is also the top genius, rare in ten years.
　　 The more potions injected, the more thorough the soul change and the higher the talent.
　　 Of course, the premise is that you can't pass unconscious during the soul-changing ritual, and continue to inject the medicine after losing consciousness. Even a small amount will kill people.
　　 Actually, there is an upper limit for the injection of medicine, and the maximum can only be 30 gallons, which is the limit of human beings. No matter how much it was, it would be counterproductive, and the potion became truly toxic.
　　 So, every soul eater is thirty gallons, but almost no one can use it up.
　　Talini followed the steps and gave Renne ten gallons first.
　　 In the next second, he felt a coolness rushing straight into his forehead, and a burst of unspeakable pain broke out, subconsciously gritted his teeth and did not shout. At the same time, it seems that something is dissolving his brain, biting it bit by bit, producing a wonderful effect.
　　 "Fuck, this is really painful!"
　　 Rehn persisted for a few minutes, feeling that there was no point in suffering so much, so he turned on the music player, and a beautiful singing sounded in his head.
　　 "A big river has wide waves, and the wind blows on both sides of the rice flower..."
　　 Then, the pain diminished.
　　 In Viola and Tarini's eyes, Ren's expression eased, as if he had gradually adjusted to the pain.
　　 The two looked at each other in surprise, but did not speak, fearing to disturb Rennes.
　　 Twenty minutes passed in a blink of an eye. According to the normal ritual process, the initial soul transformation has been completed. If it is a transcendent with a relatively ordinary talent, he has reached his limit at this moment, and it is difficult to stick to it anymore, so he can only end the ceremony.
　　 However, Renn had a relaxed face, opened his eyes and said, "Another injection of five gallons."
　　Talini did so immediately.
　　 From yesterday's soul test, she knew that Rennes could inject at least 20 gallons, so she was not surprised at all.
　　 Ren's face turned pale, but he was still calm.
　　 Ten minutes later, he said again: "Another injection of five gallons."
　　Talini did so.
　　 She carefully observed Ren's changes. She had injected twenty auspicious soul-eating potions in total. As long as Renn supported the past, she could become a wizard.
　　 However, Renn still seemed to be very relaxed, which made her feel incredible.
　　 Ten minutes later, Renn said for the third time: "Go on, it's still five gallons."
　　 This time, Tarini hesitated a bit. After 20 gallons, every injection of a little more medicine is very risky, and little by little injection is safe.
　　 But Ren insisted repeatedly, so she could only inject.
Viola, who was beside 　　, couldn't help it anymore, approached to the rune stand, and watched Ren's ritual progress.
　　According to the usual ritual, Renne was suffering unimaginable pain at this time, and he was already on the verge of collapse, even his thinking was blurred, and his body was struggling uncontrollably.
　　 But Ren was lying there comfortably, except for a little shortness of breath, it was almost like taking a nap!
　　 Viola's eyes were full of surprise, and even carefully checked the soul eater in Tarini's hand, and wondered if he took the wrong medicine or the dose.
　　 But, how could Tarini have such a low-level error, there is no problem with Soul Eater.
　　 Time passed by every minute and a second, Renn in the ceremony seemed very relaxed, but Viola and Tarini who were watching were more nervous. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
　　 In their shocked gaze, Ren opened his eyes and said clearly, "Use all the medicine."
　　 Viola couldn't help asking: "Ren, are you sure?"
　　 is able to inject 30 gallons to complete the soul-changing ritual, which is called perfect soul-changing.
　　 Such people only exist in legends, and each is a rare and extraordinary wizard of mankind in a century. They are all famous and famous, and several of them are Holy Soul Wizards of the Supreme Council!
　　If Renn also achieves perfect soul transformation, once it spreads out, it will spread throughout the empire!
　　 Ren knew what this meant, his expression was calm, and he replied: "I have no problem, Ms. Tarini, give me an injection."
　　Talini's hand was originally very stable, and she trembles with excitement when she heard Ren's request.
　　 She has hosted hundreds of transformation ceremonies and met several geniuses, but never thought that she might witness the birth of a perfect transformation character.
"let me do it."
　　 Viola saw Tarini's hands tremble, took the syringe, and steadily injected the last five gallons of medicine into Ren's neck artery.
　　 Then, the two of them stared at Renn fiercely, even breathing lightly, their hands clenched unconsciously, and the palms sweated, for fear that Renn would suddenly die on the rune stage in the next second.
　　 It would be a pity in this case.
　　 The last ten minutes seemed to be tormented to Viola, it seemed that they were performing the soul-changing ritual, and the time became extremely long.
　　 On the contrary, Renn's condition is okay, but his limbs are trembling slightly, and his chest rises and falls smoothly.
　　 Finally, under their nervous and expectant eyes, Renn completed the soul-changing ceremony. He opened his eyes, smiled on his face, and said softly, "Can you help me untie it?"
