Chapter 107: The Power Called the Taboo
The human body is refined, this is the new alchemy method developed by this genius after combining the mysteries of natural magic and alchemy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
This method requires the extraction of a living arcane circuit from the body of an already existing supernatural being, and then implants it into the human body in the form of alchemy.
It sounds simple, but it's not easy to implement. Because the arcane circuit itself is a very delicate existence, the average caster can't even tell the difference between an arcane circuit and a normal vascular circuit. This kind of delicate alchemy operation method can only be mastered by those masters of alchemy. But even the masters of alchemy can't change the situation, and that is the backlash of such a spell that violates the laws of nature.
Even the genius who created this new alchemy technique could not change this serious consequence, and any human being implanted with the arcane circuit of a supernatural creature would become mentally deranged for a short period of time, and then begin to undergo distortion.
This method of directly implanting the original arcane circuit is very different from the way the plastic energy system constructs the biomimetic arcane circuit. Although the arcane circuit of the plastic energy system is a circuit structure that mimics supernatural creatures, it is still a power built with its own spiritual power and the purest etheric element, so in principle, this power will not cause any harm to its holder. Because that's what belongs to him.
But what has been implanted through alchemy is completely different. The alien arcane circuit itself is possessed by supernatural beings with extremely strong vitality. Implanting such a thing in the human body will inevitably lead to the erosion of humans by the alien arcane circuit itself.
After all, from the perspective of living beings, human beings are completely inferior to these creatures. You know, most of the supernatural creatures come from species that were born at the beginning of the world, the same time as the Titans. Although these species have not been able to become the protagonists of the world, their long evolution has been enough to make them a powerful species far beyond the mundane. Therefore, naturally, once the phenomenon of distortion and erosion occurs, then it is completely impossible for human reason and wisdom to resist the instinctive wildness and desire of these supernatural beings.
The experiments of this genius have all turned into monsters, and they are beastly monsters full of terrible desire for destruction. And when these experiments of his escaped from his alchemy tower and destroyed the city where he was proud to have him as an alchemist with terrible combat power, the whole world knew about this alchemical experiment he had done that violated the rules of life.
The Mother of Life issued an edict prohibiting the continuation of this experiment. And the gods, and even the major kingdoms, began to desperately strangle everything about this experiment.
The genius of yesteryear has thus become a taboo that no one cares about. And his human alchemy, which was rejected by the gods, became something that could not appear in broad daylight. However, this does not mean that they can only be buried in history and never see the light of day.
In fact, this particular alchemy technique is being watched by countless forces.
Although it is said that the consequences of refining the human body are very terrible. But its potential can also be seen clearly. In that period of time when the human body refining was exposed, the monsters transformed by the refining of the human body destroyed a large city with a population of hundreds of thousands, and caused huge losses to the armies of the empire and kingdom, as well as the combined armies of the various temples. This kind of combat power is enough to make any force feel red. And judging from the greed and unscrupulousness of human beings, the so-called prohibition of the gods is not much to fear.
Therefore, while destroying everything created by that genius man, many forces began to secretly collect information on the refining of the human body. Of course, this can only be done in the shadows, so all the superficial information is vague.
What empire's secret agencies obtained the last notes of that genius, and which kingdom's army had secretly carried out the implementation of this kind of reformed army. Or maybe some underground mage will develop something new based on this technology. In short, these are all smoke bombs that these guys put out of each other, the purpose is to muddy the water so that everyone doesn't know what is real.
Hiko had heard a lot of such news, and he had always heard it as a joke. But now, he can't think so. Because the facts are already in front of us, and the kingdom of Viren seems to have done just that. They filled their army with the technology of human body refining, and this led to him having to face a monster that had already undergone the transformation of human body refining.
This is not good news, because Hikoko is really not too sure. The name of the human shadow tree, if there is no terrifying strength foundation, the human body refining cannot have such a great prestige. So if he could, Hiko really didn't want to provoke such an opponent. But his current situation is already on the verge of arrows, and he has to send it.
And in line with the principle of striking first and suffering last, Hiko immediately rushed towards this tall monster.
His goal was the broken sword that was still stuck in the opponent's chest, and in his opinion, it was the best breakthrough of the moment. While this monster's mind is not very clear, directly stab him through the heart with a sword, then all the problems can be solved.
Hiko's speed is fast, and the monster is very cooperative. He was still immersed in his inner world, standing still in a daze, his eyes dazed and constantly spitting out indistinct words from his mouth. It seems unaware that a mortal danger is looming.
This is exactly what Hiko meant. At this moment, he had already rushed to the monster's side, thinking that this monster might be vigilant and defensive, so he was also prepared to respond. But now it seemed that there was no need for this, and that was even better, and at that moment he jumped to his feet, put his feet on the monster's thighs, which had become reflexed, and pressed the hilt of his sword, which was exposed, and stabbed it with all his might.
The shattered broken sword began to drill deep into the monster's sturdy muscles under the squeeze of the external force. And this immediately brought intense pain to the monster. Originally, this monster was still in the brain engaged in the conflict between human nature and animal nature, but under the stimulation of this sharp pain, he immediately woke up.
The beast nature immediately overwhelmed the already weak human nature under the strong stimulus, and in an instant, the monster howled, brandished its sharp claws like steel knives, and swept towards the hiko on its chest.
It has a ten-centimeter claw, and as long as it is caught, it can tear off at least a large part from a person. Of course, Hikoko didn't want to taste it. So he immediately straightened his knees, trying to use the strength of his thighs to block the monster's claw attacks.
But as soon as he came into contact, he felt how unrealistic his idea was.
The monster's sheer force sent an explosion of pain to his erected knees, which was still the end of his wrists. If you change to a harder place, I'm afraid you will have to be injured at least lightly. Of course, pain is secondary, and the key is that the power of the monster makes Hiko unable to control his body at all.
As if he had been hit by an angry rhinoceros, it was impossible for Hiko to continue to stand there in peace, but even the broken sword in his hand was completely sucked out.
The idea of piercing the heart with a broken sword was directly dispelled, and even the moment it was pulled away, the broken sword in Yan's hand shattered again. A bunch of blade fragments burst out directly from the position of the scale armor on the monster's chest. As a result, the blade in Hiko's hand was less than thirty centimeters long.
Of course, the monster also took some damage. A dark blue column of blood erupted from his chest, but that was all. Because soon, the pillar of blood eased, and Hikoshi could clearly see the muscles in his chest wriggling and blocking the wounds on his body. And as those muscles wriggled, even a few pieces of metal were squeezed out.
It's like a monster's physique. Seeing this situation, Yan's pupils shrank, and he couldn't help but muttered secretly in his heart, and before he could gain a firm foothold, there was already a fishy wind in front of him. The monster, which had completely lost its mind, lowered its head, grew its own bloody mouth, and bit it fiercely at Hiko.
Only a beast would make such a terrible move, but you have to admit that such a move is terrifyingly threatening. Looking at the razor-sharp jagged teeth in his mouth, Hiko didn't dare to imagine what would happen if he bit him. So immediately, he propped himself on the ground on his toes and quickly fell backwards.
But this monster didn't give up, and he didn't bite a bite, and immediately twisted his flexible neck and took a second bite at Hiko. And this time, while retreating, Hiko also raised the broken sword in his hand and slashed at his head.
If it was the original battle mage, looking at the sword and body, he would definitely find a way to dodge it first. But now, his sanity has been completely worn out, leaving only the most primitive beast will, which makes him not regard the blade in front of him as a thing at all, but sticks his head a little further.
This is an opportunity, and Hiko knows it very well in his heart. So he mustered up all his strength, and the broken sword in his hand suddenly let out a piercing whistling sound, and fell fiercely on the monster's face.
Suddenly, the monster let out a terrible howl. But the results were far less optimistic than Yan thought. The blade slashed into his cheek, splattering bright sparks on the gray scales. The blade of the sword couldn't cut through the scales on his body at all, and apart from cutting a white mark, which made the monster feel a little pain, there was nothing to achieve.
His defenses are simply amazing. This made Hiko's heart startled, and at the same time, he immediately retracted his arms, preparing to defend against a possible counterattack by the monster. But he was a little slower. Under the pain, the monster immediately retracted its head, and at the same time, its arm flailed, and with the sound of whining wind, it waved towards Hiko.
