Volume II, Chapter 120
Controlling the clone again, this time Shi Leiyin felt much better. The feeling of being in a new body is no longer there, and instead it feels like I'm still in a tree hole, but parts of my body, such as my hands and feet, have come to the place where the clone is, and it feels very much like the feeling when I reached out to the distance with my previous tentacles to get a book and food.
Controlling the clone to do some things that were difficult for clones to do before, Shi Leiyin knew that he had made a very big gain today, the ability to perfectly control the clone. If the original clone was a remote-controlled robotic arm, it has now undoubtedly become a real arm.
Returning his consciousness to his body, he informed Shui Jing that he was going to control the clone to explore the outside world and help himself and Zilde find some food to come back, and asked Sanxiao to leave the tree hole or open the ice wall to go to the bottom of the bird's nest without authorization, and finally asked Zir what he wanted to eat for dinner, and Shi Leiyin turned his consciousness to the doppelganger again.
Controlling the clone into the appearance of a miniature ice tooth dragon, Shi Leiyin shook his wings and flew directly out of the snowdrift outside the tree hole. With his previous experience in autonomous flight, it was easy for Shi Leiyin to control the flight of the Ice Tooth Dragon's form, and even because this mini Ice Tooth Dragon was in perfect form, it was easier and faster to fly than the prototype. However, the mini Ice Tooth Dragon was too small after all, and after gliding from the top of the snowdrift to the clearing, Shi Leiyin still canceled the Ice Tooth Dragon's form. Of course, the action of this transformation is a spontaneous move of Shi Leiyin, but a complete mimicry that Shi Leiyin has always wanted to do but has not tried. Even if the previous doppelganger carried out a completely mimicry action, Shi Leiyin could not fully feel the changes in the body during the transformation process, and the transformation only required Shi Leiyin to have a thought, and the doppelganger would naturally change, just like a fully automatic toy. And now, Shi Leiyin can completely feel the slightest change in the clone, and the changes and formations of every part will be known and understood by Shi Leiyin. Shi Leiyin knows that making such a change through the doppelganger is of great benefit to using the ontology to complete mimicry in the future, and with the doppelganger you can conduct experiments, even if you don't rely on instinct, you can find the most suitable and perfect way to mimic and deform.
Completely mimicking the body into a mini Lemut spider again, Shi Leiyin found that his previous partial mimicry was indeed a waste of energy, the Lemut spider's body has a part of the hydraulic device specially used to supply arthropod movements, and he only simulated the strong arthropods of the Lemut spider when he partially mimicked, and relied on the extra changed muscles to move, which was a complete waste of energy, if it was relying on the hydraulic transmission device in the Lemut spider's body, controlling the movement of four pairs of arthropods, the energy consumed was less than one-twentieth when using additional muscles, and the maximum speed could be five times that of before, and is also capable of making emergency turns of nearly 90 degrees at high speeds and jumping ten times as high as itself.
Shuttling through the woods in the form of a miniature Lemut spider, Shi Leiyin continued to experiment with the abilities that this form could have, and also began to experiment with changing into a hybrid body type that was more suitable for other situations while ensuring the ability. The idea was already around when Shrayin learned that he had become a normal slime.
As an otaku, Shi Leiyin doesn't know too little about slimes, and knows the development and limitations of this creature. When he first became a slime, although he imagined his own powerful form after evolving, he ultimately thought it was just a simple delusion. And as his strength slowly increased, Shi Leiyin's thoughts in this regard became stronger and stronger, especially after knowing that he had evolved into a devouring slime that could completely simulate the absorbed biological form, Shi Leiyin's thoughts in this regard can be said to have reached its peak for a time. However, after that, he first met King Saint Slime, who became a ghost slime, then met Charlotte, the candy witch whose strength seemed unfathomable, and finally met Bafengte, Necronomicon and Oceris, who really stressed down on Shrayin. Continuously meeting strong people made Shi Leiyin sober up a lot, and his evaluation of himself became more modest. After the comparison in his mind, Shi Leiyin found that even if he simulated the form of those strong people, he couldn't fight with the other party at all, and even like a monster of the level of Bafengte, every time Shi Leiyin simulated a battle, he was chopped into minced meat by the opponent's sickle. Therefore, after Shi Leiyin came to the Polar Continent because of an accident, his main purpose was to travel to the continent, find a way to go back, and become stronger. Although the current purpose is a little deviated due to various reasons, Shi Leiyin has never given up on these. This includes taking risks to steal the blood and cores of the Chill Dove and Ice Tooth Dragon, as well as attempting to fly without change. Of course, what Shi Leiyin wanted most was to study hybrid forms. Shi Leiyin knew that as a devouring slime, he already had the ability to simulate the strongest part of a powerful creature to remove the chaff, and what he needed now was how to truly turn the powerful ability he already possessed into a part of his own strength. It is obviously not enough to imitate the forms of those strong parts, what is needed is a complete understanding of the inner parts, knowing why and how powerful those parts are. However, although Shi Leiyin knew that he needed to do this, he had not been able to conduct this kind of research, because it required simulating changes in the body, and when the body made such changes, it not only risked injury, but also consumed too much energy. Shi Leiyin's occasional attempts were all carried out in the Southern Desert, but after being injured a few times, Shi Leiyin could only put this idea aside for the time being, and he couldn't even simulate it in his brain, because this was a change in himself, and after the simulation in his brain was carried out to a certain extent, his body would naturally follow the changes.
However, now that she has this level of control over her clones, she finds that she can see as if she can put the idea into practice again. The current clone can clearly feel the internal operation and changes, and the energy consumed for the change experiment is far lower than that of the main body, and even if there is damage caused by the disharmony of organs and magic, it is only a matter of clones, and it can be solved by recreating a clone. The best structure simulated by the clone can be used directly by the ontology, which is simply the best and safest way to experiment.
Of course, the necessary caution is still needed, Shi Leiyin secretly warned himself, even if the doppelganger is not afraid of being damaged, he must be careful, and everything is to save energy as the highest priority, there will be a lot of things to consider, sometimes he will even forget some important places, caution, can avoid a lot of accidents that should not happen.
