Chapter 1040: Chapter 613 Coercion and Bribery_2

Her body was what distinguished her from the common Black Dragon, a source of her strength, and in the Nightshadow Form, she lacked even a constitution, naturally not triggering any special abilities.

Gaven kindly reminded her, "You now possess a special ability of Phasing Transformation—why don’t you see what you look like after reconstructing your body?"

He was also very curious to know what the Lizard Queen would look like once she transformed back into a physical state.

After all, the Lizard Queen’s abilities were now his, and they were also tied to his later plans to control the Lizardfolk Army of the Tun Marsh. If their slimming plan was too successful, the Lizardfolk might not recognize the Lizard Queen at all, which would be problematic.

Theoretically speaking, the body should look essentially the same after reconstruction as it did before the transformation, since the Soul Consciousness carries memories.

However, given the Lizard Queen’s extraordinary constitution and abilities, accidents were bound to occur.

"Phasing Transformation?" The Lizard Queen didn’t care about anything else; she hurriedly sensed her bodily changes and indeed found this Special Ability, activating it without a second thought. All she wanted was to regain her physical form; without a solid body for protection, she felt utterly empty.

As the Lizard Queen’s ability was activated, her body visibly began to swell at a speed visible to the naked eye, accompanied by a surge of Shadow Power.

As previously mentioned, the carrying point was closely related to the number of Hit Dice possessed by the soul, but this was not entirely true. Entities like the Shadow Giant Dragon required far higher carrying points for transformation, and as the number of souls he controlled gradually increased, it was discovered that it also had a close relationship with the body type—the larger the being, the more carrying points required for transformation, similar to bearing a double burden: medium body type was double that of giant body type, and super giant body type was twice that of the giant.

The Lizard Queen possessed 25 Life Dice and had a super giant constitution; therefore, storing her required only 100 carrying points, at least while she was in the Nightshadow Form.

When she began transforming into her physical state, she involuntarily drew a massive amount of Shadow Power. Gaven did not stop her, as he had guessed what was happening.

The physical state of the Lizard Queen was of a giant body type, and a hundred carrying points were far from sufficient—it was double that base amount. Even in the Multiverse, one must adhere to the Conservation of Energy which is multi-faceted in this world and far more complex than in a typical universe. When something seems to defy conservation, one should not first question the validity of the law but reflect on whether one’s knowledge is too superficial to understand how conservation is occurring.

It should also be noted that even if the Lizard Queen uses the Phasing Transformation to regain her dragon body, one shouldn’t think of extracting materials from her repetitively like pulling sinews from a dragon. Once those substances leave her body, they would soon transform back into Shadow Power, much like the Fine Gold Hammer; when whole, it is pure Fine Gold, but once broken apart, it becomes an alloy of Gold and Fine Gold. The same applies to Estelle and others with Phasing Transformation; if injured, they would bleed bright red blood, but once it leaves their body and hits the ground, it transforms back into Shadow Power.

This is a type of Magic Effect; it doesn’t imply that everything is an illusion. After death, bodies still decompose into elements like water and calcium, but their process is relatively faster.

False is false; when Death approaches, everything reverts to its primal essence.

This is another Divine Law of the Multiverse.

The Petrified Lizards and the two Evil Beast Spirits from Efanso exemplify this; upon their Death, they do not revert to their disguised forms but to the original form of the Evil Beast Spirit.

Similarly, for Shapeshifting, Shapeshift Beasts, Shapeshift Worms, and the like, no matter how powerful and miraculous their disguises, once they Die, they must revert to their original form and appearance. Gaven’s current Five-Willow Super State Full Form also follows this rule; upon Death, they collapse into six separate entities.

The Lizard Queen’s transformation neared its conclusion; she ultimately used up not two hundred but a full three hundred carrying points. Her own mass had broken through the limit of a giant form, reaching super giant size, but her length and height did not match, ultimately compromising.

Gaven could only be both happy and pained.

Happy, because it meant that the Lizard Queen’s strongest abilities were still intact, even stronger than before since she also had an additional, relatively agile Shadow Giant Dragon form she could utilize swiftly in battle or when approaching an enemy, then switch to her form adept in heavy offensive or defensive actions—it was simply a complete reversal.

Pained, because the carrying points were a scanty revenue, yet here was a new expenditure, and not a small number.

The only consolation was that they were about to engage in a major counter-attack, which would provide them with a vast number of souls, greatly alleviating the awkward situation of running low on Shadow carrying points.
