## Chapter 20: A Transformation Ability With Little Practical Use
In the spacious study, bright candlelight flickered, casting long shadows on the walls.
Su Nan sat behind his desk, intently reading from a book titled *Extraction and Modification of the Green Chameleon’s Ability*.
The chameleon is named so because of its ability to change its body color with the environment, adapting instantly. This physiological change is mainly accomplished by regulating the pigment cells in the skin through the autonomic nervous system, expanding or contracting them.
The Green Chameleon’s color-changing ability is several levels stronger than that of ordinary chameleons, bordering on invisibility. Even standing before a normal person, it would be difficult to discern with the naked eye.
The author of this book extracted the Green Chameleon’s color-changing ability, modified and enhanced it, and then transplanted it to the human body, enabling humans to acquire similar abilities.
This idea is undoubtedly ingenious. However, in Su Nan’s opinion, the final modified ability was not very practical.
Firstly, the essence of this ability was essentially changing one’s external appearance according to the environment. No matter how rapid the change, it still required time, and there would inevitably be a slight lag. People with poor perception might not notice, but Wizard Apprentices would definitely detect the anomaly.
In essence, this ability could only be used against ordinary people or knights, useless against Wizard Apprentices, and there was a significant gap between it and true invisibility.
