Chapter 187: Double-headed
Missing the old lich's summons because he was in a half-plane, Systm had no idea.
Unbeknownst to him, the old lich in the Netherworld was saddened by his disappearance, and mourned his death.
In fact, after more than half a month of this hectic period, Systham has put the old lich's affairs aside.
However, as Shava tapped the dragon's skeleton, Sistemm remembered an ordinary human who had summoned him the other day.
The human body is slightly fat, and it seems that he is a middle-aged businessman, and his life is still very rich.
He sacrificed two human slaves and summoned him.
The human's request was commonplace, and it was only for Sistm to kill Green's wife and baron, for which he was willing to pay any price, even to give him his entire soul.
It seems that this man loved his wife very much, hated her, and wanted to die with her.
However, just as Systm was about to ask the merchant a few more questions and refuse the merchant's request, the merchant took the lead in destroying the sacrificial circle summoned by the Abyss, staging a drama in which I chose to forgive her.
However, it was not the sad episode that Syst recalled, but the basement where the merchant summoned him.
In most Abyssal Summons, whenever Systm responds to the summon, a portion of his consciousness will split off and he will come to the summoner's world, where he will be able to see some of the objects near the summoner.
Because of the many summons, Sistemm also gradually learned that several different main planes were probably the medieval level of Sistm's previous life.
Commoners, nobles, mages, swords, magic, knights, and many other races outside of humans have different customs and habits, but they are generally not very civilized.
The merchant who summoned Sistemm seems to have a penchant for collecting mysterious objects, and the basement where the sacrificial circle is depicted is full of strange artifacts, as well as many different kinds of books, with different texts on them.
And among these books, there happened to be a book whose text Sistemm recognized, and the text on the book was the plague language of the evil god Rafal.
It seems that the evil god Rafal has a wide range of followers in the Overworld.
It was the title of the book that Systham was thinking about, "The Shadow Incarnation".
In fact, if it weren't for the human merchant who took the initiative to destroy the summoning circle, Syst would have found a way to get the human merchant to open the book to him.
The so-called Shadow Incarnation is the name translated by Sisterm based on the language of the plague, and it is an ability similar to [Out-of-Body Incarnation], or [Doppelganger].
This ability is full of great temptations for Heatham.
If he can master this ability, Systm can send his avatar to respond to the call of the Abyss, and even if the avatar dies, it will have no effect on him.
It is not impossible for him to travel to the Overworld, explore around without any scruples, and even learn about humans.
Unfortunately, due to the destruction of the summoning circle by the human merchants, Syst could no longer see the book, and could only see the cover of the book in the video materials in the [Tools Menu].
Still, Heatham wasn't out of the question.
If he really wants to master this [Shadow Incarnation] ability, he just tries to communicate with the sleeping evil god, and if nothing else, he should find some clues.
But communicating with the evil gods was too dangerous, and Systm really didn't want to ask for trouble.
And even without relying on the evil gods, Systm had some ideas about creating doppelgangers or avatars.
In nature, there are creatures that can produce similar doppelgangers, such as earthworms.
Earthworms are insects that repair their bodies and become two separate individuals as long as they are not cut vertically or horizontally.
In addition to earthworms, in this magical world, there are even more strange creatures than earthworms, that is, Sistham's old friend Slime.
The slime is not only split into two individuals, but also into dozens of them.
And Systm happens to have the ability to resemble slime gum, [Body-Glia Transformation], and currently Systm can convert 15% of his body into gum.
All Sistrom could do was convert his head into gum and then perform a split-like act in an attempt to grow two heads on his own.
Then two separate bodies are formed from the two heads.
Because the brain is a very special organ, after Sistrom turns his head into gelatin, his consciousness will begin to blur within three minutes, and if he does not change his head back for five minutes, Sistrom will die as a result.
Systham's experiment is also very simple, that is, after turning his head into gum, he uses his ability to control the gum to move the gum away, and then uses the [Super Speed Regeneration] ability to consume a large amount of life force in a short period of time to regrow a head, and then restore the original gum.
In this way, he can have two heads.
In fact, Systm had already experimented with his tentacles with the heart in his body before conducting the experiment of splitting his head, and with this ability, he could increase his tentacles and also allow himself to have two hearts in his body.
However, such an extra organ is awkward, and forcibly appearing on the body will accelerate the burden on the body, and Systm quickly converts these organs into colloidal reabsorption.
And this time, the extra head that grew out of Systham's head was also a success.
The two heads were close together, and the blood vessels that connected the head to the body were naturally shared, just like some conjoined babies in Sistt's previous life.
Pity.
Systham's experiment ended in failure.
He does have two heads, and the basic functions of both heads are present, but there is only one consciousness in these two heads.
Moreover, in the process of transferring the two heads, Sisstem's consciousness will also consume a lot of his energy, and if the two heads are too far apart, his consciousness will not be able to complete the transfer.
This also means that even if Systm uses these two heads as a model and continues to consume life force and use the ability of [Super Regeneration] to create a new body, it will not cause the new body to become conscious and form his clone.
……
However, the two brains that Heatham researched were not useless.
At present, the biggest weakness of Sisttm's body is still his head, although he has the ability to turn his head into gelatin, but when his head is instantly shattered by a heavy blow, Sistm will also lose consciousness and die.
With two heads, Systham is perfect for avoiding this kind of thing.
Of course, two heads like this are really useless, and the extra eyes, antennae, and chelica are of no use to Systm, and they will consume more energy in his body.
Systm only needs a spare brain, which can store his consciousness and prevent his body from fainting when his main head is attacked.
In this way, he can use [Body Deformation] and [Overdrive Regeneration] to repair his head.
And just like that, as Sava tinkled the dragon's skeleton, Systham continued his experiment......
