Chapter 57 - Chapter 9: New Eyes

At this moment, Horn's situation looked extremely bad.

Without the protection of magic power, the power of lightning was rampantly surging through his body, as if he were constantly undergoing electrocution!

The area around his left eye socket gradually turned black, and a smell of charred flesh wafted out.

Ian quickly cast a healing spell. The wounds on Horn caused by the electricity slowly healed, and the effect was very remarkable.

This healing spell was named "Healing Spell" by Ian Parker. What used to take him over an hour and all his magic power to achieve the same healing effect could now be done with just one spell!

After being injured, healed, injured, and healed repeatedly several times, Horn finally stopped getting injured. Maybe his magic power had recovered a bit, or perhaps he had developed resistance to the lightning of the Lightning Spirit!

Although Horn could now withstand the damage from the Lightning Spirit, he still hadn't woken up. If it weren't for the strong life force they could still sense in his body, the wild witches would even have thought he was dead.

Since Horn was unconscious and couldn't move, and there was still an electric current on his body all the time, the group couldn't continue their journey and had to stay here to guard him.

At noon the next day, Luke the Hoe and Terry the Black Dog came back carrying a small wild boar. The boar was tightly tied up with vines, and there was a deep fist - shaped dent on its head, obviously made by the black dog.

They handed the boar to the other wild witches to clean and skin it, and then went back into the forest to look for other seasonings.

After a while, they came back with a bunch of wild vegetables, and the boar had already been cleaned.

Luke showed astonishing forest - living experience. He skillfully built a barbecue rack with branches and stones, then cut up the boar and put the pieces on skewers.

The wild witches had been eating dry rations, and their mouths were tasteless. Looking at the pork on the fire, they couldn't help but salivate.

Even though it wasn't cooked yet, the wild boar looked very appealing. Luke had all kinds of seasonings in his small bag, and he also stuffed the wild vegetables he found in the mountains into the meat, making it very appetizing.

As time passed, the pork on the rack gradually emitted a fragrant smell. The fat dripping onto the fire made a tempting sizzling sound. Even Shirley, who was always aloof, looked at the pork with longing in her eyes!

The small cave was filled with the aroma. Horn, who had been sleeping for a long time, twitched his nose slightly, and then sat up straight!

Horn woke up!

Ignoring the surprised looks of the others, Horn crawled straight towards the roasted meat, his eyes glowing green as he stared intently at the wild boar on the rack. If it weren't for Annie who quickly grabbed him and told him it wasn't cooked, he would have pounced on it.

Horn hadn't eaten for a whole day and night. Moreover, during this period, his body had been struggling against the Lightning Spirit, consuming a lot of energy. Now he was very hungry!

"Hey! You're awake!" Annie said to Horn in surprise.

Horn endured the temptation of the roasted meat and nodded at Annie. There was a flicker of electric light in his left eye!

His left eye was now completely different. In general outline, it was still the same as before, but everything in the eye was made up of tiny pale - blue electric currents!

It wasn't just a change in appearance. Now Horn's eye was also very dangerous because it was leaking electricity!

Especially when he got excited, the electricity leakage would be particularly serious. Just like when he looked at the food now, in a moment of excitement, a half - meter - long electric arc shot out, scaring everyone to sit on Horn's right side!

More than half an hour later, Luke poked the roasted meat with a branch, and it went all the way through. It was fully cooked!

Luke cut a large piece of meat from the pig's leg and gave it to Horn.

Horn held the hot roasted meat in his hands, and a tear of emotion welled up in his right eye. There would never be tears in his left eye again.

In Ceylon, people would never eat half - cooked roasted meat. It wasn't just a matter of poor digestion, but also a tradition passed down for thousands of years. It was said that eating raw meat might cause very terrible diseases.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the group began to prepare to set off. Before they left, they had to prepare an insulating eye - patch for Horn.

Otherwise, with Horn's current state of leaking electricity, it was obvious that they might not even be able to reach the next city.

While the wild witches were making the eye - patch for him, Horn was studying his suddenly - appeared Lightning Eye.

This eye had made him unconscious for a day, but it also made him stronger. Most visibly, Horn was now a four - ring mage!

Yes, at this moment, he was a four - ring magician, a magician who didn't know any four - ring magic!

He had already been close to the threshold, and the Lightning Spirit was like the final kick that pushed him into the realm of a four - ring magician!

However, Horn's greatest gain wasn't being promoted to a four - ring magician, but the Lightning Spirit!

He had thought his eye would be blind forever, but unexpectedly, after being hit by the lightning ball, there was a Lightning Eye in his eye socket.

In Horn's opinion, this eye seemed to have intelligence and yet seemed not to. It seemed to have intelligence because it could choose the most suitable master and automatically transformed into the form that Horn needed most after entering his body.

It seemed not to have intelligence because the Lightning Spirit didn't show any reaction after entering his body.

This eye was now like one of Horn's original organs.

Horn tried to cast the second - ring magic "Arc Spell" without using a staff, and it was released very smoothly, without even the slightest tingling in his fingertips.

But when he cast a small fireball spell, he felt an obvious stinging sensation!

So this eye only had a boosting effect on lightning spells and had no change in the effect of other spells.

Not only in terms of spells, even without using magic, Horn could now control the power of lightning to a certain extent, and the limit of its power was similar to that of the Arc Spell!

Moreover, Horn's resistance to lightning had increased greatly. It could be seen from the fact that he had blocked a lightning strike equivalent to a four - ring spell with one hand, and his palm was only charred.

Now he could even feel quite comfortable when being hit by an electric shock of the same level as the Lightning Touch.

The function of this eye wasn't just to enhance his lightning ability. Since it existed in the form of an eye, it could naturally perform the functions of an eye.

Horn closed his right eye and only opened his left eye. He saw a world he had never encountered before.

What this eye saw was different from what his right eye saw! It was as if everything was in black and white, and the only other color in the world visible to this eye was blue!

The color of weak electric currents!

From a small grass to a big tree, whether it was a human or any other animal, as long as it was a living being, it had its own electric field, and Horn could see them all!
