25 3段觉醒！1年了……老师，你等的人终于来了【2合1】
It was already late when we returned to the stone house.
The afterglow of the phlogiston sun, like billowing steam, quickly enveloped the entire sacred mountain, bestowing upon it a divine aura.
Roya called Emile into his room alone.
It was he who ordered Emil to, after surveying the entire island, attempt to take Ron to find his sister under the guise of a four-person aerial hunting party.
Otherwise, Ron would be restless and might easily ruin things.
Unexpectedly, the sister Ron found turned out to be another Emile clone in disguise.
Moreover, it was not Emile's doing!
"How's the intelligence gathering going?"
Emil stood straight, her small face serious, her bright eyes filled with suppressed, bloodshot fear.
"Report to the captain: My original body was not found on the island, but several clones that later split off were found."
These clones were used to impersonate deceased trainees when relatives or friends visited, or when trainees left the factory.
"What caused these trainees to die?"
"A small portion died suddenly during the awakening process, but many more were hidden away by the Super Factory... especially those children with ordinary backgrounds but exceptional talents."
Roya was not surprised by this.
Half of the trainees in the factory will eventually become consumables for a small group of people.
Where did these children go?
"I gained new memories by contacting another clone who was pretending to be Ron's sister, and learned that these children were loaded onto a ship and transported to a hidden sky island beneath the tornado."
Luo Ya frowned slightly.
It seems Prince Tali wasn't lying... there really is a hidden floating island beneath the tornado.
"If your clones can sense each other's location and exchange memories after making contact, wouldn't you be easy to catch?"
"Indeed. But thankfully, these extra clones are only at the first rank and are highly controlled by the Beastmaster. They are mentally numb, have no independent consciousness, and will not actively probe, making it difficult for them to detect me."
Even when I secretly checked the other person's memory during our handshake, it didn't elicit the slightest reaction.
The old beast tamer gave me a great deal of autonomy in decision-making, and now the captain has given me true freedom. My personality and memories are even more complex than my original self.
Even if I'm captured and my physical body is fused with my original body, my thoughts and memories will still dominate. As long as I break free from the Beastmaster's control, I can persuade them to submit to the captain.
Judging from Emile's clear and logical statements, Roja felt that he might have underestimated her intelligence.
"Very good, you are smarter than Wendell."
"whee."
Roya patted her bun, then turned and summoned Wendell and Ron to his stone house.
Having confirmed that Ron's sister had been murdered or kidnapped and imprisoned, Roya found it difficult to face Ron.
Ron, however, said with great excitement:
"Now that I've seen my sister, my wish has been fulfilled. Captain Roya, please feel free to ask if you have any orders!"
"Could you help me guard the airship?"
"certainly!"
So, Amir transformed into a bird and escorted Ron back to the forest on the island to board the Wide Silence.
Inside the stone house, Wendell, his eyes glazed over, yawned and lay down on Roya's stone bed to rest.
Luo Ya turned around and went to the wall.
The warm yellow glass shade of the luminaire wall lamp features a photograph of Illinois Arden in his youth.
He wore a dark blue military uniform, had a tall and slender figure, handsome features, and a crow perched on his shoulder...
Perhaps it was the crow, perhaps it was Arden's gaze, perhaps it was something else, but Roja felt there was something off about this photo.
At this moment, Emil returned to the stone house and transformed from a bird back into a girl with a single bun hairstyle wearing a red dress.
Rojas, still staring at the lampshade, asked Emile:
"What do you know about Arden, the factory owner?"
"I've never met Arden in person, but I've heard he's a man who indulges in excessive sexual activity, possessing all seven deadly sins: pride, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, gluttony, lust."
"I asked about his abilities and rank."
"Probably a fifth-tier transcendent being, unchanged for many years, with unknown specific abilities, possibly illusion magic or beast taming magic."
This is similar to the information that Roya had previously gathered.
Hunters on the Merlin Passage rarely exceed Tier 3.
A fifth-tier transcendent being is enough to guard a region!
"Where is Mr. Mulong?"
"When I first met Mr. Mulong, he was still a new apprentice of the old beast tamer, only at the second level. But when I left the factory more than ten years ago, he had already become a fourth-level superhuman."
"Judging from this, Mr. Mulong's talent for beast taming should far surpass that of the old beast tamer. With Arden himself and Mr. Lingjue also involved, the factory's strength should not be underestimated. We must proceed with caution."
"Don't worry, Captain, I know this place well. I won't be easily captured. Even if I am, I'll use a wisp of blood energy to locate you and capture both your main body and your clones!"
After saying that, Emile prepared to leave.
Luo Ya felt that sleeping in separate rooms was not safe, so he said:
"You don't need to keep watch tonight. We'll sleep in the same room so we can look after each other. Just don't sleep too soundly."
"But there is only one bed in the room, and Miss Wendell needs to get some sleep."
"What guarantee? I can sleep on her lap and she won't wake up. I can sleep leaning against the wall and you two can squeeze in."
"well?"
"What? Not only are you not human, you're also genderless. Wendell has fallen to demonic possession, maintaining a semblance of normal blood energy only through six dragon scale valves. The three of us aren't even of the same race, so let's not concern ourselves with such trivial matters."
"Oh……"
Emil timidly went to bed.
Suddenly I felt that the crowd was too dense.
"Captain, my body can become even smaller, so it won't take up so much space."
Roya had long discovered that Emil's favorite form was not the slime form, but the dragon girl form.
"Just stay in this position and don't move around."
Emil dared not move and quickly closed her eyes.
Luo Ya leaned against the middle of the bed.
Wendell and Emile slept on either side of him.
In Roya's view, although they were not human, they were beautiful and had pleasant personalities, which made him feel happy and added a touch of color to his adventurous hunter life.
More importantly, they are outstanding in ability, provide strong support, and can provide a safety net; they are all very capable and reliable teammates.
The only problem is that he himself is too bad at the game...
Tomorrow, we must wake up!
Luo Ya opened the Bible of Conversion and began to memorize the verses. Soon his blood pressure soared, his blood surged, and he felt like doing something bad.
"Alright, I'll take this opportunity to set myself a small goal: if I don't awaken by tomorrow, I'll kill all the monsters on the mountaintop!"
……
the next day.
As dawn broke, the thick white fog was impossible to dispel.
Emil got up early, left the stone house, and quietly transformed into a snake to take charge of more detailed ground reconnaissance.
Roya then took Wendell to the mountaintop dojo.
Because of their bloated and deformed bodies, the strange people had difficulty moving around and could only live on the mountaintop.
Upon seeing Roya and Wendell this time, the strange people's expressions changed, and they no longer showed the enthusiasm they had shown before in regarding Roya as a kindred spirit.
At that moment, Willie Tully quietly approached Roya and reminded him:
"They found your modified airship too cheap and guessed that the factory wouldn't make much money off you, so they'll soon transfer you to the mountain temple and won't bother with you anymore."
Roya didn't care, but Tali:
What do you think?
Tali grunted, like a hippopotamus hissing.
"In my eyes, what's the difference between your ship and theirs?"
Luo Ya was speechless for a moment, unable to refute.
It's like looking at the sun from its vantage point: what's the difference between skyscrapers and two bungalows on the ground?
Tali's approach to Roya was obviously for another purpose.
"Awaken quickly! If you fail, we'll go find a dragon. This ordinary burning crystal you have is just stained with a little dragon blood. I've heard there are real dragon crystals there that can help you awaken!"
"What if I could awaken today?"
"It still needs to be upgraded!"
Luo Ya suddenly realized that the reason why Mr. Mulong leveled up so quickly might be related to the large supply of dragon crystals.
At this moment, Mr. Lingjue's two black-robed disciples arrived at the mountaintop temple and set up a six-pointed star array on the altar.
Luo Ya glanced at it; the "Guide to Extraordinary Awakening" contained a detailed analysis of this awakening array, so there shouldn't be any problem.
The only two problems are: the blood used in the formation is high-level beast blood instead of the dragon blood of Emil herself, and the details are also rather perfunctory.
"If it's ready, we can start anytime."
Luo Ya asked curiously:
"Won't Mr. Lingjue come to chant scriptures for me?"
"Today, the two of us will recite scriptures for Mr. Roya. In terms of scripture recitation alone, our skills are no less than our teacher's."
"Shouldn't we avoid these people? Won't they bother me?"
"Their presence will only enhance your dynamic blood energy."
"Since you say your personality is too rational, you can put more pressure on yourself, such as increasing hostility towards those around you, having more persecution complexes, and stirring up the evil thoughts in your heart."
"it is good."
After whispering a few words to Wendell, Roya stepped onto the altar alone.
He sat cross-legged in the center of the six-pointed star array, attempting to swallow the dragon crystal and the hemostatic medicine.
The dragon crystal that came with the 500 gold coins was similar in appearance to the dragon crystal that Roya had previously consumed as a trophy, but it was slightly smaller and had a much smoother surface.
The amount of dragon blood in the dissipated red aura is also lower.
It's clear that the dragon crystal isn't fake, it's just not pure enough.
Worried that one coin wouldn't be enough, Roya took out the only two hundred gold coins he had left in his purse.
"My talent is quite high; one dragon crystal might not be enough. Give me another dragon crystal!"
The two black-robed apprentices looked at each other in bewilderment, and had no choice but to accept the money and give Roya another dragon crystal.
Only then did Luo Ya notice that each of them had a bag of dragon crystals, totaling more than twenty!
The two black-robed mages chanted loudly:
"Awakening Ritual, begin!"
"Please take Dragon Crystal—"
Luo Ya grabbed the two dragon crystals and immediately stuffed them into his mouth.
He felt a smooth sensation in his throat and swallowed it effortlessly; it was much smoother than the dragon crystal he had swallowed before.
The dragon crystal entered the stomach and quickly dissolved, releasing a massive amount of pure blood energy that passed through the stomach wall and impacted the blood vessels and bones throughout the body.
It felt as if every cell in my body was dancing along.
The two black-robed monks began chanting scriptures.
The sound was faint and low, like the buzzing of a swarm of bees.
Hearing this, Luo Ya's blood pressure soared, and evil thoughts began to spread through his mind...
Soon, the dancing cells rapidly ruptured and reorganized.
In the blink of an eye, Luo Ya's face was covered in blood, and his whole body was shrouded in surging blood mist.
Luo Ya gritted his teeth and tried to control the blood and qi in his body.
"Wait, it's too early to take control."
Last time, Roya blocked the awakening process because he controlled it too early, wasting some of the blood energy provided by the dragon crystal.
So he stopped trying to control himself and took out the shady drawing book he had prepared in advance from his pocket.
The two black-robed mages whispered a reminder to him:
"There's no need to look at the painting. Only one in ten thousand geniuses will have their blood energy react when they look at this painting. For those with mediocre talent, looking at the painting will only hinder the condensation of their blood energy and break the awakening ritual."
Luo Ya could vaguely hear bursts of laughter coming from the strange people around him.
The laughter was so loud and eerie that Roya could hear the sounds of decaying flesh and parts falling.
Luo Ya suddenly understood.
At the time, Wendell and Emil both showed obvious signs of arousal after viewing the painting, indicating that they were both geniuses, one in a million.
His own blood and qi reactions were even more exaggerated than theirs, which showed that he was a genius among one in a billion!
But soon, his awakening process was blocked again... meaning his talent was mediocre.
In other words, he was both a mediocre talent and a genius.
Mediocrity lies in physical talent and innate ability; genius lies in mechanical connections.
Opening the Crow's Eye Picture again, Roya's eyes reflected the ring of crimson eyes, and he quickly became immersed in it...
In the blink of an eye, ripples spread, and the air was thick with the scent of blood.
The blood mist that had been enveloping him quickly seeped into his body.
Blood and energy rapidly condense throughout the body, impacting the heart.
The two black-robed mages were gradually stunned and stood frozen in place.
The two, their lips trembling slightly, stopped chanting.
"This is impossible..."
Willie Tully frowned as he looked at the two superhuman guards behind him.
"Could he be a genius?"
at the same time!
Before Roya's eyes, the hazy crimson aura gradually brightened, slowly transforming into a semi-transparent red panel:
Congratulations, mortal! You are about to awaken the power of the Mechanical Heart and will possess the following abilities—
First, your thoughts can control mechanical objects through mechanical connections (already awakened).
Second, your will can control mechanical objects (already awakened) through the infusion of blood and qi.
Third, your thoughts can spread through your blood and qi, causing the machine to be imbued with a soul. Once imbued with a soul, the machine will awaken a mechanical heart and become your mechanical object. Even if the blood and qi are disconnected, you can still permanently connect and control it through your thoughts (unawakened).
Based on the above text, please imagine a specific scene depicting the unawakened ability!
This time, Luo Ya failed to analyze the situation rationally, allowing himself to lose himself amidst the chanting of scriptures.
Luo Ya imagined himself imbuing machines with souls through his blood energy, creating unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, unmanned armored vehicles, and even androids, which would spread throughout the world.
The main body sits in the center, commanding the overall situation.
Or control the world without leaving home.
He studied Emile's infinite division, the distributed mechanical entities and memories that could merge at any time, and ultimately pieced together a mechanical community where everything was unified—
Industrial Cthulhu.
Even after his physical body dies, the projected will is enough to revive him within this mechanical community.
Alternatively, with the assistance of Ishtar and Emile, consciousness could be pre-transferred to the Machine Community as a backup.
Ultimately, the consciousness of everyone in the world is uploaded into the mechanical community, and their bodies are transformed into semi-biological puppets capable of remotely projecting their consciousness.
In this way, all humankind will coexist and prosper, immortal and indestructible, until machines ascend and all things return to oneness.
[Stop! You're overthinking it. The awakening process is about to be interrupted. Please replenish your health immediately...]
"Oh."
Luo Ya sneered, having anticipated this.
Prior to this, Wendell had followed his instructions and, while the two black-robed sorcerers were chanting, had quietly seized the two bags of dragon crystals they were carrying.
Seeing this, they stuffed it all into Roya's mouth.
The blood essence of nineteen dragon crystals flowed into his entire body!
In an instant, Luo Ya's blood pressure soared, blood rushed to his brain, and he seemed to hear a "ding" sound in his ear—
[Ding! Congratulations on fully awakening your Mechanical Heart!]
[Since you are the only transcendent being in this plane to awaken through the three-stage ritual, you will receive a Star Gathering Gift Pack. After your transcendent level reaches Tier 12, please attempt to gather Star Spirit Essence to claim this gift!]
In an instant!
On the altar of the mountaintop temple, a blood-red pillar of light shot into the sky.
Like a crimson lightsaber, it pierces the sky and spherical storm clouds.
In an instant!
The strange men stared blankly, their eyeballs bulging, their jaws dropping to the ground in shock.
at the same time.
Above the dome.
The interior space of an artificial phlogiston sun.
Wine, flesh and blood, beauties, medicine... piled up like mountains.
Suddenly, a crow landed on the mountaintop.
The mountains collapsed with a deafening roar.
A middle-aged man, bloated with fat and covered in tumors, adorned with dazzling ornaments, and bearing features somewhat resembling Illinois Arden, moved his imposing body and slowly opened his cloudy eyes amidst the collapsing mountain of flesh.
"A hundred years... Teacher, the person you've been waiting for has finally arrived."
