Chapter 649: Chapter 466: New Flying Dragon Knight
Their bodies felt like skins stretched to the breaking point.
Beneath their skin, their muscles knotted and spasmed uncontrollably. Their bones emitted a series of grating CRUNCHING sounds, as if they were being ground down inch by inch, then reorganized.
Intense pain, like a tidal wave, crashed against their nerves, one wave after another.
Their consciousnesses drifted in an ocean of agony, threatening to be completely swallowed at any moment.
"Focus your minds!"
Raylo’s voice boomed in their chaotic minds.
"Circulate your Fighting Spirit! Guide this power!"
Bolin and Monk jolted, pulling back a sliver of clarity from the brink of being overwhelmed by the pain.
They were battle-hardened Knights, their wills forged to be as tenacious as steel.
The two roared, enduring the excruciating pain, and began to frantically circulate the Fighting Spirit within their bodies as Raylo had instructed.
Their originally dormant Fighting Spirit, spurred by this external energy, was like a bonfire doused in oil—it instantly erupted into a frenzy.
Fighting Spirit erupted from every pore of their bodies.
"ROAR!"
Under the guidance of their Fighting Spirit, the violent energy that had been rampaging through their bodies finally found an outlet.
It was no longer purely destructive; instead, it began to fuse with their bodies on a deep level.
The ancient and tyrannical power contained within the Flying Dragon bloodline began to reshape their physiques.
Their muscles grew tougher, filled with explosive power.
The density of their bones increased dramatically, becoming harder than steel.
Their blood surged and roared as if it were about to ignite.
Nourished and assaulted by the Potion, their bloodline was strengthened as never before, rapidly ascending toward a higher form of life!
"AAARGH!"
The two threw their heads back and roared to the sky, a sound that could pierce clouds and shatter stone, filled with both endless pain and the ecstasy of rebirth.
Behind them, the erupting Fighting Spirit was drawn together.
Light converged, and energy compressed.
Gradually, two pairs of immense wings, formed from the purest Fighting Spirit, slowly unfurled behind their backs!
The moment those Giant Flying Dragon Wings, with a wingspan of over five meters, fully formed, a fierce wind swept across the square.
Ed and Alex subconsciously took a few steps back, their faces etched with shock.
They could clearly feel the auras of Bolin and Monk swelling wildly at an unbelievable speed.
"ROAR!"
The two roared long and loud once more.
This time, their roars carried a hint of a Giant Dragon’s cry—high-pitched and majestic!
Two figures shot up from the ground like cannonballs!
The pair of Giant Flying Dragon Wings, formed from Fighting Spirit, gave a powerful flap!
WHOOSH!
A violent torrent of air swept out in all directions.
Propelled by the giant wings, the two instantly soared a hundred meters into the air!
Like two meteors, they traced brilliant arcs across the sky, circling and soaring wantonly above Black Stone City.
At times they would dive, creating a sharp whistling sound as they broke the air.
At others, they would climb straight into the clouds.
They were venting the surging, restless power in their bodies in the most direct and primal way, experiencing the unprecedented freedom of commanding the skies.
「Down below, on the square.」
Raylo simply stood there quietly, a gratified smile on his face.
But the audience was not limited to the few people on the square.
「The Lord’s Mansion.」
「Mage Delin’s room.」
Mage Delin and Master Wendel stood side by side at the window, like two silent statues.
"An interesting Alchemy Potion,"
Master Wendel murmured, stroking his chin.
"Violent energy acting directly on the flesh to forcibly stimulate the bloodline’s potential. The method is crude, but effective."
"Mm,"
Mage Delin nodded.
"It’s risky, but it seems to be under control. The core Power of Giant Dragon Bloodline in the Potion appears to have been adjusted and controlled by a top-tier Alchemy Master using a special method."
When the two pairs of Giant Flying Dragon Wings formed from Fighting Spirit unfurled in the sky, the calm expressions on the two Legendary Mages’ faces finally shattered.
"Fighting Spirit into wings?"
Master Wendel’s eyes widened abruptly.
"No, it’s not purely a transformation of Fighting Spirit? The Fighting Spirit is just the surface; the Dragon Wings of these two Knights are more an extension of the Power of the Giant Dragon bloodline within them."
After a Knight advanced to a Sky Knight, they would have already mastered the power of Fighting Spirit Transformation and could use Fighting Spirit to form wings for short flights.
But these two Knights before them, who had just awakened their bloodline, had formed not just simple "wings," but a pair of structurally complete "Giant Flying Dragon Wings"!
"Correct. It’s not solely reliant on Fighting Spirit."
Starlight glinted in Mage Delin’s eyes; he seemed to have seen through to its essence.
"That Potion didn’t just stimulate their power. It also planted a ’seed’ in their bodies."
"A seed of power belonging to a Giant Dragon."
"Their bloodline and Fighting Spirit have been transformed, imbued with... a trace of a Giant Dragon’s bloodline power."
"That is why they can form such realistic Dragon Wings capable of flight."
As Master Wendel listened to Delin’s analysis, the shock on his face gradually morphed into a fanatical, almost greedy, fervor.
"Genius! This is a truly genius concept!"
he exclaimed.
"To perfectly combine Alchemy, bloodline studies, and the Knight’s Fighting Spirit system in such an inconceivable way!"
His gaze returned to the window, his eyes burning as he watched the two figures soaring freely in the night sky.
Two streaks of light cut across the sky, the sound of dragon cries echoing ceaselessly.
Bolin and Monk vented the surging power within them to their hearts’ content. Like two children with new toys, they tumbled and chased each other through the air, tireless.
The feeling of commanding the sky was so intoxicating.
They could feel the wind supporting them, the clouds swirling around them.
The entire world presented itself to them from a new, unprecedented perspective.
After a long while, the two figures in the sky circled and descended slowly, finally landing steadily in front of Raylo.
The two pairs of Giant Flying Dragon Wings dissolved into motes of light and vanished into the air.
"Lord!"
Bolin and Monk knelt on one knee.
"How does it feel?"
Raylo asked with a smile.
"Better than ever!"
Bolin looked up, his face brimming with irrepressible excitement.
"My body is overflowing with power!"
Monk added, clenching his fist.
"I feel like I can break through the bottleneck to become a Sky Knight in another six months!"
"Very good."
Raylo nodded.
The excitement on Bolin’s and Monk’s faces gradually faded, replaced by a solemn and dignified expression.
They glanced at each other, then once again struck their breastplates heavily.
"We swear to serve you to the death, my Lord!"
"Our power will forever be the sword and shield that protect Black Stone Territory!"
Raylo nodded in satisfaction.
"Go. Familiarize yourselves with your new power. The strength of Black Stone Territory depends on you."
"Yes, Lord!"
The two rose, gave Raylo a Knight’s salute, then turned and strode away from the square.
Their figures, illuminated by the firelight, appeared exceptionally tall and straight.
The square fell silent once more.
Ed and Alex also took their leave of Raylo and returned to their posts.
Just as Raylo was about to turn and head back to the mansion, a voice rang out behind him without any warning.
"An interesting little thing."
Raylo’s body stiffened abruptly.
He slowly turned around.
Not far away, by the roaring bonfire, a figure had appeared at some unknown time.
It was Great Elder "Gu".
He had appeared there silently, as if he had been standing there from the very beginning.
