Chapter 371 Experiment

“Let’s… forget it…” After pondering for a long time, Heath decided to give up on this crazy decision. After all, he was only an intermediate-rank Wizard, and an advanced-rank Wizard demonized creature was a whole level higher than him. With his current strength, if he wanted to extract an advanced-rank Wizard-level demonized creature, if he really encountered one, he would only end up being stuffed between the teeth of the demonized creature.

“Forget it, it’s better not to be too greedy. This trip has already been fruitful enough. If I don’t know how to be content, I’ll be punished sooner or later.”

Shaking his head, Heath dismissed the thoughts in his mind.

“It’s about time to go back…”

Looking around, Heath silently decided.

A few months later, Golden Harbor Town, Heath’s Lighthouse.

The top floor of the lighthouse, the laboratory.

Compared to before, there was a significant change on the top floor of the lighthouse. There was a large pool built in the room on the left side of the lighthouse. It looked like a small hot spring bath.

However, this hot spring bath was not for Heath’s own use. The strange demonized creature in the pool at the moment had already proved this point.

At this moment, there was a strange demonized creature in the pool. It had human facial features and upper body, and the lower body was a large fish tail. Silver scales flickered under the light of the fire.

Mermaid.

Yes, this was a legendary demonized creature that everyone knew in the Wizard World, the Mermaid. And this Mermaid was none other than the one who was familiar with Heath… The high-level demonized creature Nami, who had blessed Heath on his way to becoming an intermediate-level Wizard.

At this moment, Nami was lying lazily by the side of the pool. Her gaze was looking through the floor-to-ceiling cross-shaped window in front of her, looking out of the window in the distance. Her tilted head looked pensive, as if she was thinking about something.

Suddenly, Nami seemed to have sensed something. With a whoosh, she raised her head and looked at the closed door behind her.

After a short glance, she seemed to have thought of something interesting. The corners of her mouth curved into a playful smile. Then, with a whoosh, she entered the pool.

The pool was not deep, but the water inside was very muddy. After Nami entered, she completely disappeared.

Not long after Nami disappeared.

Click! With a soft sound, the door opened. Heath walked into the room. At this moment, he was still holding a bamboo basket in his hand, and inside the basket were a few fresh sea fish. The continuous wagging of their tails indicated the freshness of these sea fish. Obviously, they had just been fished out from the sea.

Walking into the room, Heath swept the pool but did not see Nami. Then, he looked around, but still could not find any traces of Nami.

He could not help but be surprised. “Strange, where did this girl go?”.

Just as he was about to use his spiritual power to scan, he suddenly heard a splash from the pool water. Then Nami jumped up from the pool water and slammed her huge fish tail fiercely. A large amount of water splashed.

“Wow!” she shouted.

Heath raised his eyebrows and the Wizard’s Forcefield on his body was automatically released. The water that was slapping towards him was frozen in the air. Then, with a thought from Heath, it quickly retreated, it was as if time was going backward.

After advancing to the intermediate level, Heath’s magic had improved in all aspects. The same was true for the Wizard’s Forcefield. Now, as long as it was an item within a certain range… He could control anything that entered it.

At this moment, the water that had been slapped over quickly slapped back. Nami, who had been lifted up, fell straight towards the edge of the pool.

“Ah!”

Seeing that she was about to fall onto the pool, Nami couldn’t help but let out a cry of surprise. Her expression was clearly a little panicked.

However, at this moment, a gentle force swept over from below and firmly wrapped her up. It stopped her when her head was about to hit the edge of the pool.

Splash!

With a thought from Heath, everything, including Nami, returned to the pool. The pool quickly returned to its previous calm.

Nami jumped out of the water and asked cheekily, “How was it? Did I scare you?”

Heath said, “What do you think?”

Nami curled her lips. “Boring.”

After saying that, she jumped into the water again and could not be seen.

Heath waved the basket in his hand and said to Nami, “If you don’t come out, I’ll throw them all away.”

His words were indeed effective. Nami slowly rose up from the pool again. She lay on the side of the pool and looked at the bamboo basket in Heath’s hand.

It was not an ordinary sea fish, but a demonized creature called a Growth Fish. This demonized creature had an outstanding taste, but the key was that this thing was one of the keys for Nami to have human legs…

Heath smiled. “I’m just kidding. Here, eat it.”

He threw the basket over.

Nami immediately picked up the basket and began to eat the fish one by one.

Heath sat down on a chair and took out a notebook and a quill pen to record Nami’s food.

After leaving Prester Island and returning, Heath went to Deep Sea Kiss and brought Nami back. Before coming, he promised to give her a pair of normal legs. He also wanted to take this opportunity to observe and study Mermaids. For this reason, Heath specially built a pool on the top floor of the tower, which was now the pool.

The seemingly turbid pool water in the pool was not ordinary pool water. Instead, it was a magic potion that he had specially concocted using a variety of materials. Soaking in it for a long time would help one’s body to be full of vitality. It was preparation for him to replace her legs in the future.

After eating for a while, Nami burped and asked, “Hey, Heath, when do we start? I can’t wait to walk on land.”

Heath said, “Not yet. I need some more time.”

Nami pouted. “That’s what you told me before, but I’ve been waiting for a long time.”

Heath shrugged. “It can’t be helped. What you want is a pair of real legs. Strictly speaking, this involves the change of species. It’s the rewriting of the lowest life sequence. With my current ability, it’s still too much.”

Nami sighed. “Sigh… It’s really not easy to get a pair of legs…”

Heath reached out and touched her hair. Then, he said, “Don’t worry, I’m already making preparations. Since I promised you, I’ll definitely do it. Recently, I just happened to get my hands on a few books related to the rewriting of species. Maybe I can find a way to help you in there.”

Heath was not just saying this casually. In fact, after returning from Prester Island, he had begun to prepare for Nami’s surgery. Recently, he had been reading and searching for books on this subject. For this reason, he had specially asked Jackman to borrow some knowledge on body modification from other Wizard organizations.

In just a few short months, it could be said that Heath’s body modification level had grown the fastest. Now, he was no less than some Wizards who were proficient in body modification.

Nami said, “Thank you, Heath. When I have legs, I will definitely thank you.”

Heath smiled and said, “There’s no need for that. It’s my honor to be able to serve Miss Nami.”

After reading for a few more days, Heath had completely understood the physiological mechanism of Mermaids and humans. He quickly formulated a plan to modify Nami’s body.

However, he still did not act rashly. After all, this was not an easy surgery. On the contrary, it was a life-threatening surgery. A slight carelessness could bring about irreversible or even life-threatening threats to Nami. Everything had to be done safely.

Because of this, even though Heath already had the knowledge of the surgery, he still did not blindly start the surgery. Instead, he first found some creatures to do similar experiments.

After a while, in the laboratory of the Heath’s Lighthouse.

Ding! Ding! Dong!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of bottles colliding and the sound of flames burning could be heard continuously in the laboratory.

On the long wooden table, there were a few fish-type demonized creatures. In the cage next to it, there were a few land-type demonized creatures with four limbs. There were primates, lizards, rats… and even ordinary demonized creatures.

Heath, who was wearing a black cloak, was standing in front of the wooden table, holding an exquisite small scalpel in his hand.

On the table in front of him were a fish and a lizard. Heath was holding the scalpel and cutting off the legs of the lizard. He opened many wounds on the fish’s body and then put the lizard’s legs in.

The name of the fish was Three-Eyed Silver Fish. It was named as such because the fish had three eyes. Two of them were standing on both sides like normal fish. The other one was standing in front of the fish. It looked very strange. From the information he had read, the physiological structure of the Three-Eyed Silver Fish was very similar to that of the Mermaid. That was why it was the most suitable substitute for the experiment.

Similarly, the other lizard that Heath was using for the experiment was called the Long-Legged Lizard. The structure of the lizard’s legs was also the most similar to that of humans. It could be used for the replacement experiment of human legs.

As long as the Long-Legged Lizard’s legs were successfully grafted onto the Three-Eyed Silver Fish, Heath’s experiment would basically be considered a success.

Puchi… Puchi…

A faint ‘puchi’ sound rang out.

The sharp small scalpel sliced through the Three-Eyed Silver Fish’s body, creating a small, thin wound on its body. The silver scales split open, and bright red blood immediately gushed out along the crack.

After pulling out a suitable gap, Heath immediately placed the Three-Eyed Silver Fish on the table beside him. There was already a magic array carved there.

Heath placed the Three-Eyed Silver Fish on the magic array and brought over the lizard leg that he had prepared beforehand. He inserted the lizard leg into the small wound that he had cut before and then used silk threads to stitch the two together.

The silk thread that was stitching them up was the Black Spider’s Silk. It was the silk thread that was used by Wizards when they were transforming their bodies. Its characteristic was that it was extremely willful, had a certain degree of recovery, and was also extremely easy to absorb. After the stitching was done, there were basically no traces of the stitching.

After everything was prepared, Heath chanted a short incantation.

As the incantation sounded, the magic array on the table immediately flashed with a faint blue light screen. Then, a blue light that was like silk twined around the Three-Eyed Silver Fish and lizard’s legs that were placed on it.

Under the influence of this strange power, the two slowly merged together. The cut seemed to have sprouted flesh, entangling and entangling with each other.

Before long, the lizard’s leg had completely merged with the Three-Eyed Silver Fish’s body, as if it was growing on top of it. When the Three-Eyed Silver Fish moved its body, the lizard’s legs also became aware. It was as though a leg had really grown on the belly of a fish.

However, at this moment —

Zi… Zi… Two soft sounds were heard. The light on the magic array suddenly distorted.

Immediately, a tiny crack appeared on the spot where the Three-Eyed Silver Fish’s body had merged with the lizard’s legs. Before Heath could react, the crack became bigger and bigger. Finally, it could not hold on any longer and a ‘bang’ was heard. It exploded.

“Squeak!” The Three-Eyed Silver Fish let out a blood-curdling scream. It swung its huge tail and stopped moving completely.

Heath frowned. “Another failure!”

Then he turned to Amy, who was behind him, and said, “Take care of it.”

Amy, who had been waiting behind him the whole time, walked up to it deftly. She picked up the corpses and the remains of the corpses on the operating table, then left the room and poured them into the dedicated trash can next to her. The trash can was now filled with more than 20 Three-Eyed Silver Fish of the same size and dozens of Long-Legged Lizards, apparently left behind when the previous experiment had failed.

Although he already knew the specific physiological structure of the two lifeforms, it was still very difficult to combine the two. Heath had experimented with them countless times over the past few days. No matter how smooth the start seemed, it always ended in failure.

“What went wrong?” Heath rubbed his chin and thought carefully.

After a short while, Amy had finished dealing with them. She went back to her room and began to clean up the blood and debris on the experiment table. As an Apprentice, she knew very well what her identity was at this time. These days, thanks to Amy’s help, Heath had been able to save a lot of trouble.

After a while, the lab was back to normal.

Amy bowed and said, “I’m done, Teacher.”

Heath nodded and said, “Okay.”

Then he took out a notebook and recorded all the data of the previous experiments on it. This was Heath’s habit. After every experiment, regardless of whether it was successful or not, regardless of the reason for the failure of the experiment… Anyway, he first recorded the necessary data on it, then slowly used the data to deduce the reason and think about the next step…
