Chapter 415: Law of Beauty
Crackle, crackle—
The blue-white electric light gradually turned purple, and the night sky, which originally had no clouds, now had several huge dark clouds, firmly obscuring the moon.
However, even though the moonlight had disappeared, the continuous electric flashes made the pitch-black sea as bright as day.
Just like at this moment, the beautiful Mermaid, located at the center of the whirlpool and surrounded by seawater, was clearly reflected in everyone's eyes,
Every detail was visible.
“Is that—Jia Na-Roland!?”
After a brief moment of surprise, Hai La - Herheim discovered that the Mermaid surrounded by seawater was precisely Jia Na, whom she had been searching for.
Not only her, but Louis Tor-Turan, flying high in the sky, and the other contestants who had seen the Mermaid’s true form under the illumination of the electric light, also recognized her identity.
“Could it be—her true identity isn't human, but a ‘Half-Mermaid’ with Mermaid bloodline?”
Louis Tor-Turan, who possessed the Phoenix bloodline, saw the exceptionally active water elemental particles around Jia Na after she transformed into Mermaid Form. His first reaction was to assume that Jia Na, like him, was able to successfully complete the transformation because she possessed the bloodline of such a top-tier extraordinary creature.
After all, Louis Tor-Turan also possessed the conditions to transform into a Phoenix, a top-tier extraordinary creature, due to his bloodline.
Otherwise, with the magic control ability of a Wizard Apprentice, it would be absolutely impossible to analyze the Phoenix’s soul structure, which was even more complex than a Law’s Context.
However, what puzzled Louis Tor-Turan was that the Wizard Talent Jia Na herself displayed was entirely Plant-based, and there wasn't even a trace of water elements in the magic around her—
“Could it be—she was able to transform into a Mermaid because she completed Soul Transformation?”
Louis Tor-Turan, who had this possibility flash through his mind, immediately shook his head to dismiss such an absurd guess.
Soul Transformation is a prerequisite operation for Wizards to achieve Complete Transformation by simulating their own soul into the soul form of other creatures.
This operation is mostly used by Formal Wizards to simulate top-tier extraordinary creatures, and the number of uses should not be too many, otherwise there will be a risk of “soul loss.”
Not to mention the high “perception” threshold requirement of Soul Transformation for Wizards, just simulating the flesh and blood body structure of top-tier extraordinary creatures, and even manipulating one's own elemental particles to complete cross-element transformation of “elemental symbiosis,” the precision requirements for magic control in this process are so high that Wizard Apprentices cannot easily achieve it.
“Splash, splash—!”
The surging waves continued to churn and rush on the sea surface. Looking at the constantly expanding giant whirlpool in front of them, all the contestants, after a moment of daze, also recovered from the “Mermaid” incident and began to scatter and flee in the direction outside the whirlpool.
“La la—!”
Just as everyone was preparing to escape the whirlpool at the fastest speed, suddenly, that captivating and enchanting singing voice came again, and the contestants who heard the singing seemed to have been cast with a petrification spell, freezing in place without any warning.
“Is this mental charm?”
Because he couldn't use magic, Louis Tor-Turan was currently unable to use magic to block his hearing. Therefore, he could only use his remaining willpower to resist his body's instincts, which had already been affected by Extraordinary Charm.
“Thump—!”
Unlike Louis Tor-Turan, who was still stubbornly resisting, several other contestants with slightly weaker willpower were completely unable to resist the Mermaid's singing.
Without much effort, the two contestants who had transformed into a giant python and a crocodile, respectively, turned around and swam very obediently towards Jia Na’s direction, plunging into the whirlpool with immense suction.
“La la—la la la—!”
The ethereal chanting continued, and more and more contestants, guided by the “singing,” jumped into the whirlpool, activating their magic-sealed ring.
“This is absolutely not ordinary mental charm, but the power of a Law!”
Watching the surrounding contestants dwindle, Kunbu-Poison Spine, whose mental will was also on the verge of breaking down, was very certain that the Mermaid, into which Jia Na had transformed, even if her singing naturally possessed the characteristic of charming people's hearts, it absolutely could not have such an outstanding effect.
Others might not be clear, but Kunbu-Poison Spine, who had been surrounded by various “noisy” Insect Language sounds since childhood, his spirit and will had long been tempered. Ordinary charm and control wizardry simply had no effect on him.
However, ever since Jia Na appeared in Mermaid Form, in just a few seconds, she had directly hard-controlled several contestants with her singing, effortlessly crushing their will and turning them into puppets under mental control, making them “suicidally” jump into the whirlpool.
Even Kunbu-Poison Spine himself was also on the verge of losing control, completely defenseless.”
It was precisely because of this that Kunbu-Poison Spine inferred that Jia Na must have used the power of a certain Law, otherwise, her singing could absolutely not have such a mental control effect.
“Look at me.”
Just as Kunbu-Poison Spine was still desperately struggling with his will, the singing circling his ears suddenly stopped, replaced by an ethereal voice that was extremely seductive yet exceptionally gentle.
“Look at me, Kunbu-Poison Spine.”
The moment the other party called out his name, the taut string in Kunbu-Poison Spine’s mind completely snapped.
Immediately after, when Kunbu-Poison Spine opened his eyes again and looked at that captivating face, a mix of purity and allure, in a daze,
Kunbu-Poison Spine seemed to have guessed the Law that Jia Na had mastered.
“Could it be, the Law of Beauty——”
But very quickly, the dazed consciousness in Kunbu-Poison Spine’s mind completely disappeared, and along with the contestant next to him who had transformed into a giant octopus, they both fell into the whirlpool and vanished.
“Roar—!”
Just as the contestants in the sea area were about to be completely cleared out by Jia Na, suddenly, a dragon's roar sounded.
On the sea surface, Hai La - Herheim, who had originally transformed into a deep-sea undead electric eel, began to rapidly increase in size. In a short while, a Skeleton Giant Dragon about fifteen meters tall, with blue-white flames burning in its eye sockets, appeared in Hai La - Herheim’s original position and leaped up, flying into the night sky.
“It’s a Skeleton Giant Dragon!”
Louis Tor-Turan, whose mental defense was on the verge of collapse, saw the suddenly appearing undead creature. His consciousness, instead, became clear due to the dragon's might that the Skeleton Giant Dragon inherently possessed.
