Chapter 14 14. Evolution and Mapping
"Wow, that's huge."
As soon as she entered the door, this was Dorothy's first impression of this bookstore.
This is a standard witch shop. It looks like a small room from the outside, but in fact there is a universe inside. The exquisite space extension spell makes the space of the shop almost a hundred times larger. The neatly arranged bookshelves are like a forest. Especially The bookshelves that rise up from the high walls around it create a library-like feel.
No, it should be said that this is a library called a bookstore. The collection of books here has surpassed the scope of ordinary bookstores.
It's just that although the space is large and there are not too few customers in the store, the overall environment is very quiet, and there is no noise inside. Even if there is communication, the customers try to get close and whisper softly.
This is certainly due to the fact that witches respect knowledge more, but I think it is more because of the reverence for the reputation of the sage shopkeeper.
Dorothy likes this kind of environment. She is originally an otaku character who likes to be quiet and doesn't like to move, and as a witch on the road to omniscience, the feeling of being surrounded by knowledge in the sea of books is quite wonderful.
"Maybe I shouldn't engage in real estate in the future, and it seems good to open a bookstore."
She thought so in her heart.
"Sister, let's go over there, all the textbooks are over there."
Alice gently pulled the corner of her clothes, pointed to a direction on the second floor, and whispered.
As a witch who takes the path of omnipotence, she has never been too interested in reading and learning. In her opinion, she only needs to know how to use the required spells. As for the principle of the spells, whoever can use them it is good.
Therefore, Alice's interest in bookstores is actually average, just like Dorothy's interest in picking clothes. The little witch can't wait to go straight to the goal and run away after getting the textbooks.
She is a character who likes to be lively, and doesn't like the dull and depressing atmosphere of the library very much.
It's just that Dorothy is not in a hurry at all. Alice is heading straight to her destination, while she is walking slowly while looking at the bookshelves on both sides, trying to find if there are any books she is interested in.
"what"
Looking at the bookshelf beside her, she stopped, and a book on this shelf caught her attention.
"Detailed Explanation of the Evolution Pedigree of the Witch's Bloodline Talent Specialty".
The reason why witches can obtain their current status is actually a lot to do with the powerful evolutionary ability of this race. They can always evolve themselves according to their needs. For example, if they are burned today, their fire resistance will evolve. Almost drowned in water, may soon be able to master fish-like underwater breathing ability or something.
I even feel envious when I see birds can fly, and I wish I could grow a pair of wings to soar in the sky, so as long as this belief is strong enough, maybe that witch can really grow a pair of bird-like wings in the end.
The early witches survived the difficulties step by step by relying on such evolutionary power, and gradually grew up.
It's just that the witch's evolution at that time was called learning from nature at a good level, and it was a random evolution of blind chickens. It was completely unsystematic. Today, this evolutionary ability has long been recognized by the witch. They are well-researched and self-controlled.
This kind of open-and-dirty evolution ability also needs to consume magic power at the cost, or this is a manifestation of the omnipotence of magic power, but what this evolution consumes is not simple magic power, but the upper limit of magic power.
Using popular game terms, it is not the amount of mana that is burned, but the length of the mana bar.
But it is very difficult to increase the upper limit of magic power, so the number of evolutions a witch can evolve in a period of time is actually limited.
Looking at it this way, things that can be done with a simple magic, such as underwater breathing, are completely unnecessary to specialize in evolution. This kind of low-value evolution is simply a great waste.
This is also impossible. The early witches were limited by their vision. All they could touch and learn from were some wild beasts in nature. They evolved such as the strength of bears, the speed of leopards, and the eyes of eagles. capabilities are also limited.
But the current witches have too wide a vision. All the superhuman races in the multiverse are all targets for them to learn and imitate, especially the three old natural disaster races.
Angels, demons, giant dragons, these natural disaster races are simply the best templates for the evolution of witches, and many witches are specifically evolving in the direction of these three major races.
Of course, as a near-god race, the three major natural disaster races are not so easy to pirate. If a witch wants to evolve into a natural disaster race from scratch, it needs too much magic power. Generally, there is only the way of omnipotence. Only a good witch can afford this kind of consumption. This process of continuous self-evolution is the main way for a witch on the path of omnipotence to become stronger.
Fortunately, this power of evolution is not a one-off, and the result of evolution can be passed on through blood. Therefore, if ordinary witches cannot finish their evolution, they should pass the goal on to the next generation. One day can reach that goal.
Many traditional and closed witch families follow this path.
Generally speaking, the evolution ability that a witch inherits from her parents is called talent. A witch will inherit at least one talent from each of her parents, and a witch with excellent talent may inherit multiple talents from her parents.
As for the abilities that witches have developed by themselves, they are called specialties.
There is no difference between talents and specialties except for the names. If I have to say it, the talents brought out from the mother's womb will be more suitable for the witch than the acquired specialties, so the effect will be slightly stronger. last point.
In short, today's witches have basically studied the evolution ability of their own race thoroughly, and they have even developed a special evolution ability map, which combines the extraordinary power of the extraordinary races they have been in contact with over the years. Thoroughly researched and registered.
Different levels are also divided according to the strength of these abilities, which are N, R, SR, and SSR from low to high. The higher the ability, the stronger the ability, but it will cost more to evolve. Much mana cap.
And the name of that book is this "Detailed Explanation of the Evolution Pedigree of the Witch's Bloodline Talent Specialty".
This is the knowledge that the witches of the path of omniscience must learn, and it doesn't matter for witches of the path of omniscience like Dorothy.
After all, the witches of the Path of Omnipotence rely on talents and expertise to be powerful, and magic is only auxiliary, but the witches of the Path of Omniscience rely more on knowledge and magic, and talents and expertise are auxiliary.
She had heard of the name of this book before, but she hadn't really read it, but now that she just met it, she seemed to feel the guidance of fate in the dark, and she stretched out her hand involuntarily.
Then her hand touched the other hand, it seemed that she was not the only one who fell in love with this book.
Dorothy suddenly woke up from the state that seemed to be possessed, and she turned her head to look around.
A pure white girl broke into her sight just like that.
