Chapter 228: Transition Between Two Realities

3rd May.

5 AM.

Lee woke up and stretched his limbs. After recognising the room, Lee got out of the bed and walked to the window. From his room on the first floor, Lee could see the three glass chambers standing in front of the mansion.

The daylight in the System Space never vanished, and it was always bright there. Lee slowly descended the stairs and walked out of the mansion's front door. Taking a glance to his right, Lee could see Ruella sitting below a tree. The tree leaned forward and let her be in its shade. Plants had surrounded her like a cage, and Ruella emitted a faint ambience of tranquillity.

Since it was not her time to wake up anew from the meditation, Lee Shen went straight to Hudson and D, who was standing anxiously in front of the chambers. The transparent walls of the chambers have become almost opaque, and only a vague outline of the beasts could be seen.

"How long?"

Lee Shen asked softly as he stood next to the duo. D looked at him through the corner of his eyes and replied-

"Within a few minutes."

Lee raised his brows from the answer and peered at the chambers. No matter how keenly he observed, his vision could not make out anything from the obscure outlines behind the glass panes.

Lee walked to the three glass constructs and saw the same obscurity in them all. The chamber which contained the Lesser Fire Wyvern was as if it contained the hell itself. The scorching heat could be sensed just by standing next to it. The chamber in which Snow Wyvern was, had layers of thick ice on the outside of the glass. It did not show any signs of weakness even under the exposure of Lee's Fire affinity.

The Lesser Wind Wyvern's glass construct was purely opaque. No energy fluctuations or sense of terror could be felt even if you touch the surface of the glass. All Lee was able to sense was a boundless pit of silence. The whiteness covered the entire structure from top to bottom and from all sides. Lee assumed that the Lesser Wind Wyvern had finished its metamorphosis.

"Lee, we should step back a little."

D said as he walked past him with Hudson in two. He did not probe and promptly distanced himself from the glass constructs. Now, the trio was standing about 45 meters from the chambers.

A minute later, their eagerness was answered by a sound.

*PSSSSS.....*

The walls of the chambers facing the trio opened downward, creating a ramp. Jets of air were released from the chamber of Lesser Wind Wyvern. Intense bone-chilling air was shot of the Snow Wyvern's chamber. The scorching hot air released from the glass construct of the Lesser Fire Wyvern was not inferior in its aura.

"Here we go."

Hudson rubbed his palms in excitement. His face had an ear to ear grin and his body showed unrest. His excitement intensified Lee's interest and wondered what had happened to the Wyverns. Lee stared at the chambers but his eyesight could not pierce the dense energy.

The next second, the glass chambers shattered! Like normal glassware, it was destroyed beyond repair. The fragments did not disperse around but decomposed in the mid-air. The scene made Lee inhale with excitement and a grin appeared on his face. His eyes reflected great anticipations.

A second later, three monstrous outlines could be seen. As the mist and steam dispersed, Dnekewy, Hudson and Lee witnessed the final products of their effort. A sense of success and ecstasy filled their hearts as their sights fell on the three Greater Wyverns.

Red, blue and yellow were the respective colours of the Fire, Ice and Wind element Wyverns. Their complexions were light and attractive. The beasts had a similar lean but muscular physique and were in slumber. Two menacing pair of horns rose from their heads. The horns had acquired a darker shade of the wyvern's colour.

One of the two pairs originated from the brows of the beasts and travelled straight backwards before taking a large but steep U-turn downward and lining parallel to the jawline to its length. The tips of the lower pair were slightly turned upward and added a menacing attribute to the face.

The second pair was different from the first one, as it was the very condensed form of the elemental trait of the wyvern. The scorching, freezing and translucent surfaces of the respective Fire, Ice and Wind affinity upper pairs were eye-catching, and Lee picturised them leaving a trail as they flew.

Except for the elemental affinity, colour and the difference in the upper pair of horns, everything was identical to each other. The length of the beasts from snout to the tip of the tail almost reached 20 metres, and their wingspan had increased by a great margin. By their current anatomy, gliding in the air for hours was a reality!

The closed mouth concealed the deadly set of jaws and the array of teeth it housed well. A series of small spikes ran on the back of the beasts and it extended to the end of its tail. As Lee further observed the sleeping behemoths, a truth was unveiled in front of him.

Before the transformation, the Lesser Wyverns had a pair of hind limbs and a pair of winged forelimbs. It was the characteristic figure of a Wyvern, and this anatomy made them different from Dragons, Drakes and Wyrms.

A Wyvern's scales were smoother than a Dragon's scales. The arrangements of claws also differed. Wyverns also possessed a narrowly smaller head when comparing with that of a Dragon. At a single glance, anyone could easily distinguish between both the creatures.

But now? The Wyverns have been reconstructed in a way that these three beasts exist at a transition point between Dragons and true Wyverns. Perhaps it is the influence of the glass chamber's artificial atmosphere and mechanisms, that enhanced the physique of the three beasts to rival Dragons. Thus the Wyverns successfully formed a bridge between the two realities.
