If one day he became a demigod or even a true god, how could he let those who were intimately connected to him die like mortals?
Margarita was deeply moved; her alluring gaze seemed to suggest that with just a look from the man, the two of them could have a delightful battle in this basement.
However, business came first. After a few minutes of consideration, Guilliman chose not to have his other Witcher brothers test the effects of the secondary mutation first.
Instead, he decided to try it himself.
This was both out of confidence in his own perfect Witcher bloodline and confidence in Margarita.
During this time, he had accumulated nearly eight thousand points of Soul Power and four points of Life Divinity.
Even if something unexpected happened, there was still plenty of room for remedy; it wasn't a reckless act.
After hearing his idea, Margarita no longer tried to stop him. Instead, she had him lie down in a completely enclosed instrument and softly said:
"This mutation should last about three hours."
"However, according to my predictions, the upcoming mutation is a deep-level genetic mutation, and the process won't be too painful."
"Remember to tell me all your sensations afterward."
"Since you're still thinking about undergoing tertiary and quaternary mutations, then every experimental data point from now on will be very important, and I must record them carefully."
...The process of the secondary mutation was indeed as Margarita had said; there was no painful sensation.
When that special mist entered his body through his respiratory tract, then circulated throughout his body via blood vessels and cells, Guilliman only felt his entire body begin to heat up, his internal organs gradually accelerate their operation, and his head felt heavy and muddled.
From his internal perspective, it was a genetic level that was clearly unobservable.
But he had a feeling.
His secondary mutation wasn't about breaking down the gene chain and allowing the body to undergo genetic fragmentation and recombination.
Instead, it was more like the feeling of unlocking a 'gene lock' as described in some novels.
This potion, rather than integrating into his genes, was more like a catalyst.
Within his perfect Witcher genes, a certain gene chain that had not been activated began to officially run and work because of this catalytic experiment.
And when the entire mutation experiment ended, his brain was muddled, and he awoke from a somewhat dazed state.
Guilliman subconsciously opened his Deep Blue System interface.
He found that beneath his bloodline, a new status bar called 'Bloodline Abilities' had appeared.
[Secondary Mutation]: Piercing Cold LV1, Euphoria LV1.
Piercing Cold: When using the Aard Sign, by increasing magic consumption, the Aard Sign can be imbued with a freezing effect. The higher the levels of the Aard Sign and the Piercing Cold skill, the stronger the freezing effect.
Euphoria: The toxicity in the host's blood will stimulate the body's muscles and internal mutated organs, causing them to operate at an overload. The stronger the internal toxicity, the greater the enhancement to physical strength and Sign intensity.
Seeing the two special abilities activated by his [Secondary Mutation], Guilliman rejoiced.
Piercing Cold and Euphoria, these were two quite famous abilities, and even because of these two special abilities, players had developed many different combat styles.
Although his Piercing Cold and Euphoria were quite different from those in the game and not completely identical, even so, Guilliman could see the hidden potential within these two special bloodline abilities.
It seemed that the development of more potent and effective Witcher elixirs must be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
Not only that, but the Aard Sign, which he had previously not paid much attention to, perhaps should also be given more importance.
With the Piercing Cold ability, the Aard Sign could instantly become a magical offensive Sign comparable to the Igni Fire Sign.
One ice, one fire, perfectly corresponding to two quite powerful elemental magics.
Whether for elemental counter-properties or to enhance his own combat capabilities, Piercing Cold Aard was a skill not to be missed.
Guilliman exhaled. He found that after the secondary mutation, his physical attributes had also received a small, comprehensive boost; probably all attributes had increased by about two points.
For him, this certainly wasn't a lot.
But if this attribute increase were for other weaker Witchers, it would definitely be considered a huge improvement.
