The transformation lasted for several minutes.
After the transformation, Vincent Wolf felt that his body had undergone indescribable changes, and there was a sense of urgent need to vent the stuffy feeling.
With Barry’s upgrade, Vincent’s Beast Master level also advanced to Apprentice Level 6.
He opened Barry’s panel.

[Introduction]: The Slime that has undergone Dimensional Summoning
Contract has evolved into the Slime King, having mutated the rare Life Attribute and Death Attribute and survived. It is about to break free from the shackles of its bloodline and move forward in an unknown direction.
Luxurious, luxurious, and damned luxurious.
Who would have thought that just a few days ago, this was a low-level extraordinary species, a regular Slime that only knew [Spit Water]?
Barry is now pretty stunned.
What happened, Beast Master?
It was already panicking every day for gaining something without effort!
Why did it become even more intense today?
Is it trying to scare this baby to death?
This baby is not even a week old yet!
Not a year old, but a week old!
Is it okay to upgrade like this?
Will there be any negative effects on body development in the future?
As Barry fell into a happy worry, Vincent was already drooling over the skills in Barry’s panel.
“Barry, quick, come to the yard with me!”
Vincent pulled Barry and ran towards the courtyard.
Among Barry’s skills, only [Intimidation] had reached the Proficient level, but all its other skills, except [Death Corrosion], had reached Proficient level.
This meant that Vincent could now use most of Barry’s skills.
Isn’t this a direct takeoff?
Vincent excitedly ran to the courtyard and confronted Barry.
The new skills he could use were [Water Cannon], [Water Vortex], [Water Flow Armor], [Healing], and [Intimidation].
Start with trial from the low-grade skills.
Vincent brought out a basin of water from the house, placed his hand in it, and closed his eyes to silently recall the memory of skill releases.
Slowly, the water flowed along his arm and slowly spread around his body, forming a spherical water shield barrier.
Vincent opened his eyes and ordered Barry, “Throw a stone at me.”
Barry understood and took a stone into his body. With energy control, the stone was quickly shot out from within his body.
Whoosh—A gust of wind blew across Vincent Wolf’s cheek, ruffling a lock of his hair.
It was clear that Vincent’s Water Flow Armor hadn’t blocked the stone at all.
Barry blinked innocently, as if to say it wasn’t his fault.
“Ahem, so it seems this [Water Flow Armor] isn’t very effective against small concealed weapons. Let’s try blunt weapons.”
Vincent found a flat-bottomed pot and called Dragon Town, who was still inside the house watching a soap opera about pet beasts’ romance dramas, to come and help him.
Dragon Town was astonished and curious when he saw the human for the first time, using a technique usually used by pet beasts.
“If it weren’t for the fact that I’ve never heard of pet beasts and humans having children together, I would have suspected that my old master was cuckolded.” Dragon Town brazenly speculated about Vincent’s late adoptive father.
“Hey, hey, is it okay for you to say that?” Vincent looked at Dragon Town speechlessly, “Even if he’s dead, he’s still your Beast Master, right?”
“No harm done. Even if he were alive, I’d still say it. He and I were like iron buddies,” Dragon Town continued, “He called me his brother, and I called him my master. We were all about our own business.”
“You two were really casual with each other…” Vincent muttered.
“You haven’t seen the messier ones.” Dragon Town gossiped: “I’ve heard of a Legendary Beast Master and his six pet beasts, creating eighteen chat groups, and spending all their time scheming against each other, fighting for attention, just like in a palace drama.”
“You’re just being ignorant. This might not be their limit.’
“No, wait, we’ve strayed from the topic. How did you manage to use this Water System technique?” Dragon Town realized they had gone off on a tangent and hurriedly returned to the topic.
“Well, I suppose I have a unique talent.” Vincent said smugly.
“How can you say that’s nothing? Being able to use an attribute skill without the corresponding energy is clearly something that defies logic. You might even be kidnapped for research by some strange organization,” Dragon Town said seriously.
“But there are Beast Techniques among humans, right?” Vincent asked, puzzled.
“But all human Beast Techniques are without attributes. It’s obvious yours is not a Beast Technique.”
After that, Dragon Town thought for a moment.
“If you were using a non-attribute technique, you could probably get away with it most of the time.”
“Plus, if you try to hide your identity, you should be fine.”
“After all, there are so many types of Beast-controlling Talents in the world. Some strange talents aren’t rare, so I don’t think people would ask too many questions.”
“So basically, I can’t be without a hat and mask now, right?!” Vincent regretted not learning a technique to cover his face in the Simulation.
Curse the Cracked Tooth Shark!
If it weren’t for it, Vincent could have learned a few more techniques.
After chatting with Dragon Town, Vincent started testing these techniques with Dragon Town.
[Water Flow Armor] was as Vincent had guessed. Sharp weapons could easily break it, but the technique worked for deflecting blunt weapons or larger attacks and even reduced their power.
[Water Cannon] was more powerful than [Spit Water], but it needed some charge-up time. In comparison, the latter was almost instantaneous.
[Water Vortex] seemed to be for pulling enemies underwater and disrupting their formation. It wasn’t very useful on land.
After the experiment, Vincent stood still, thinking for a while. He felt that these techniques shouldn’t be this weak, but what was the problem?
Vincent looked at the pot of water in front of him. The lack of water was indeed a factor, but water attribute pet beasts can release techniques even without water and their power wouldn’t be much different.
He remembered when he first learned these techniques, and he thought he was a Mage who could only use spells with the help of materials.
Spell materials…
Vincent clapped his hands excitedly.
“How could I forget that? I’m so stupid!”
Excitedly, he took out a Transcendent Water Attribute Energy Crystal Stone from his Space Bracelet.
“This is exactly the water energy I need!”
Vincent felt the abundant water energy in his hand, closed his eyes, and a much thicker and denser water shield appeared around his body.
It formed much faster than before.
“So this is the correct way to cast the technique!”
