Volume 1: The Land of the Dead Chapter 162: Physical Invasion (Part II)
The liquid Roger slowly squeezed out his 'body' from the cracks in the metal structure, and the special state of magical perception made his reaction to those who did not have magic very slow, so although he was very careful, Roger's 'body' still inevitably touched the hot metal pipes in the process of advancing, which made part of him in the liquid state vaporize into mist.
However, after losing part of his 'body', Roger's blood-colored liquid finally converged bit by bit in the core area of the mechanical dragon, forming an almost perfect sphere, and he circled around in mid-air a few times, as if adjusting to his new form, but he quickly focused his attention again on the brilliant ball of light in his perception.
Roger's movement was very fast, as he had expected that his movements in the dragon's body had barely stopped, and it had only been a minute or so since he entered the mechanical dragon's body.
This clumsy big guy should probably still be outside showing off his might in front of his corpse? I don't know if Linda will be able to hold on, but in short, I'm going to speed up the progress on my side.......
Thinking like this, the blood-colored orb soon squirmed, and countless tentacle-like pseudopods poked out from under the liquid ball, they were like long crimson hair scattered in the water, enough to make people with secret fears feel uncomfortable just by looking at them, and they seemed to grope towards the energy core that was close at hand in his perception under Roger's control.
The tentacles cautiously stretched out towards the 'light source', Roger was actually ready for them to be annihilated in the energy core, after all, it was the energy source that could drive the activities of this behemoth, and it should be some existence beyond Roger's imagination.
However, the tentacles did not reach the 'present' energy core as he wished, and Roger's temptation could not move an inch very close to the energy core, and the tentacles fed back to Roger a 'feeling' of touching solid matter, no matter what direction he changed.
The entire power core is encased in a thick layer of armor.
"Huh~ I know that this thing has a protective film, what do the screenwriters of the movies I watched before think, the most critical core has never been equipped with a security device? ”
As he muttered, Roger conjured up more tentacles, which clinged to the solid material that blocked them, gradually restoring a spherical shell in Roger's mind, and in addition to this, many synapses-like dense metal guides stretched out from this shell, and they were intricately like a sea urchin with long spines.
"Bang bang!"
Pseudopod snapped twice more on the shell, and the crisp sound indicated that the metal was not thick, but the protection was not much less than the outer armor, and this was the core of the mechanical dragon anyway.
Roger looked a little frustrated, even the blood-colored sphere was not so rounded, this layer of armor was now Roger could not break through in a short period of time no matter what, all he could do was to challenge the almost impossible invasion of the energy core from the metal conduit against the energy vortex - how could this kind of cliché happen to Roger!
Roger smiled sinisterly, the liquid body was more convenient for him to absorb the magic element, but in the time of invading, he once again condensed a part of the magic power. He controlled his body to shrink into a ball, and the blood-colored orb stretched to the maximum extent in the narrow space, and then, as if there was an invisible hand, the blood-colored liquid ball was entangled and bent as if it had been twisted by someone, and it was in the flowing blood tissue, densely intertwined veins and veins gradually emerged.
It must be a real flesh and blood structure to ensure the release of magic, and the 'blood original state' is only a kind of 'initial interstitial state' that Roger maintains the liquid form to a certain extent, in fact, in essence, Roger is still in the initial reset state, which does not meet the conditions for the release of magic, so this state Roger does not use it many times, and it is usually regarded as a relatively weak one of the reborn creatures.
"Alright, almost......"
Prepared in his heart, Roger's liquid body seemed to be boiling, and in just a few seconds, it changed from a viscous liquid state to a substance, and at the same time, a sharp roar that seemed to pierce the soul echoed in the entire mechanical space, and those metal mechanical structures, catheters and even trembled slightly, all of which made this place permeated with an innumerable strange atmosphere.
However, the mysterious atmosphere only existed for a moment, and the sharp whistling also ended with the formation of flocculent tissues in the liquid, and those blood vessels and veins became the core of musculoskeletal attachment like branches of plants, and cotton wool-like muscular bone chips gradually appeared in the blood, they were attached to the blood veins and tissues in a way that violated biology and even the common sense of creation, and those dots or flesh or white bone tissues were intermittently condensed, clearly spaced, but slowly contracted and expanded at the same rate, completing normal physiological metabolism, as if..... The connection between them has never gone away.
It sounds like a long process, but in reality, the liquid Roger quickly writhed and flicked to reappear the substantial organization. Almost in the blink of an eye, Roger appeared naked in the cramped space.
"Whew, as expected, it's really crowded. ”
Although the space around the core was quite large for liquid, it would be a bit cramped if it turned into a physical body, Roger's body was completely twisted, his spine was bent in a way that did not conform to its physiological curvature, and Roger's head was almost folded under his crotch, so he only had a narrow line of sight to observe the enveloped energy core.
As those previously deprived sensory sensations returned to his body, Roger felt the air around him make his newly formed skin feel tingling and burning, perhaps because the power core would produce some kind of radiation nearby, which was not a problem for the liquid Roger, but now this suspected radiation energy was harming Roger's nascent tissue, and at the same time releasing a large amount of heat, Roger was sweating profusely.
However, compared to this unknown, maybe it will kill his own little radiation, Roger is more concerned about other perceptions after the recovery of his senses, for Roger, who can constantly achieve near-immortality through life reset, maybe life is just a slightly precious consumable, and death is just a slightly painful process, but the taste of this engine oil twitched the corners of his curled mouth.
"Oh, I said, I always felt that the smell was a little familiar, Jimmy even said that this smell was strange, this familiar smell of engine oil ......."
Sniffing the smell of engine oil in the small space, Roger pursed his mouth thoughtfully, after staying in the pan-continent for so long, the smell of the irritating petroleum products of the industrial age of the earth in his hometown has been forgotten, but compared with his own nearly 10,000 years of time here, compared with the short life of more than 20 years on the earth in his previous life, it is really difficult to say which side is his hometown.......
Roger writhed, curling up like a fetus in his mother's womb to make himself as comfortable as possible, and the heat wave mixed with the smell of engine oil hit Roger one by one.
Due to the reason of his vision, he could only see a small part of the structure of the core, as Roger expected, the energy core that supported the activities of the mechanical dragon was wrapped in a thick metal shell, and the dense metal conduit was wrapped around the metal shell, Roger inexplicably felt a sense of déjà vu that he was facing a heart, and when this thought popped up in his mind, Roger even felt the metal ball shrink slightly like a heart.
So did this mechanical dragon have some malfunction that caused it to show this offensive intent, or was it originally designed to carry out 'hunting' work? But is it really necessary to use engine oil to be able to build a bionic machine of this magnitude?
Letting the familiar smell waft into his nose, Roger complained as usual, and he simply released all his magic, and through the distortion of magic, he tried to awaken his shadow trick in the metal shell without being able to see it at all.
To be honest, Roger was actually a little nervous at this moment, although he couldn't see the structure inside, but it must be some kind of structure that needed to supply energy, it couldn't be a large battery, right? As long as the energy conversion rate does not reach 100%, then there will always be energy released in the form of light and heat, since there is light, then only there is a little gap in its shell, then there is a shadow to take advantage of.
But before Roger's magic was released, all of this was Roger's assumption, and God knows if the 'race' that made this big guy has any black technology like bio-energy transformation, then Roger will be blind, maybe he will really have to climb the energy pipeline.
But judging by the results, this guy's luck is good.
Feeling the presence of the shadow inside the metal shell, Roger breathed a sigh of relief, although he could only feel a very small amount of shadow existence, but it was enough.
So what's next.......
Roger buried his head in his somewhat fat belly, and the shadow inside the metal shell gradually detached from the surface of the material under his control, and began to undergo some kind of essential change.
"Shadow Trick – Gospel!"
With Roger's soft drink, the metal shell sounded like a boiling crackling sound, this sound gradually intensified, like an accelerating drumbeat, when the drum beat was dense to a certain extent, everything suddenly quieted, it was the 'vacuum' generated by the energy reaction.
Roger closed his eyes, and then the crowded mechanical world reverberated with a deafening explosion!
