Professor Cao's transformation didn't originate from the "Witch-ghoul Manifestation Potion" that Chen Xinmi sneakily threw out; the potion merely gave a push to the ongoing witch-ghoul transformation.
As for how it pushed, looking at Professor Cao now, it was clear that Chen Xinmi had used the most potent formula available.
Professor Cao greedily grafted onto himself Liu Yuanmou's Wizard's Bloodline and even Lin An's spiritual bloodline, hoping to use the body of a wizard to popularize the 'Wizard Furnace,' only to end up in this state.
This method was probably inspired by Doctor Zhang, who grafted his mind onto Mr. Liu's, treating him like a chive garden.
Doctor Zhang paid a price for doing so.
Although Professor Cao's actions weren't selfish, driven by the public spirit of 'paving the way forward,' he also paid the price for it.
Mr. Cao had no regrets, nor did the Deer Antlers who accepted the costs along with everything else.
