Blood of Mercury - v3 Chapter 55

The skin on the professor’s body turned into a stream of gray-white data and swelled, and what was left was not flesh and fat, but crunching and spinning gears.

With the pumping of the gears, the silver blood flows like a waterwheel in the mechanical human body.

Smooth metals hook up to each other, forming bizarre structures. The runes etched on the back flowed with a grayish-white halo, and the strange machinery at the heart hummed.

He doesn’t have any internal organs in his body. In other words, the flesh and blood in his body has been completely replaced by machinery, and he doesn’t even have a skeleton. The structure of the machinery is weird but makes people feel inexplicably elegant.

“This is–“

An Ruosi’s pupils shrank instantly.

It never occurred to him that the professor was not a human being.

“No, I’m human.”

As if hearing An Ruosi’s voice, the machine on the professor’s face slid, revealing an expression that was about a smile. But without the beautification and packaging of the skin, An Ruosi could only see the mechanical blocks on his face sliding and twisting, which was disgusting.

Looking at An Ruosi, the professor did not attack, but paused and reiterated: “I am not an undead, nor a machine – I am a human being.”

“From the beginning to the end – I am human.”

“Even an elves have limits. At first, the nerves became dull, and I began to use metal built-in devices and runes to accelerate the body’s response; then the internal organs and bones began to age, and I designed a mechanical drive to speed up the body’s response. The excellently constructed circulatory system of the runes; after that the skin also began to age and lose its elasticity, and I replaced it with artificial fake leather.”

Having said that, he stretched out his slender robotic arm and pointed at his head: “By the way, although it looks like this place is empty… In fact, I haven’t changed my brain.”

“I took my brain out and stored it in an absolutely safe place, connected my perception with a special remote control device and operated it. In order to prevent the brain from decaying, I cultivated a giant brain several people high – the whole of which is in A half-flesh device grown on a mithril substrate.”

The professor smiled and said proudly in his sharp voice with triple echoes: “In fact, only such a device can withstand the computing power of thousands or even tens of thousands of people.”

“In order to enhance the combat effectiveness, I set up enchantments in some well-protected places… It’s a pity that it was countered by your [Destroy the enchantment], otherwise you won’t realize that you never attacked me until you die. of.”

The professor’s voice grew louder and his body slowly expanded at first. An Ruosi reacted when the professor said the second sentence, and used continuous thunder, flowing fire and laser to carry out continuous strikes, but without exception, they were all slowed down by the enchantment around the professor, and then analyzed and rejected. lost their existence.

An Ruosi couldn’t help but feel a hint of despair in his heart.

Can you really kill such a monster by yourself?

No… Or, can I survive its attack?

It’s impossible no matter what.

Challenging the Highest Spire with the mere Sanctuary of Truth… Have you really become arrogant?

However, just as An Ruosi hesitated, the professor had completely transformed into a terrifying monster.

In a few seconds, the dome cathedral was completely parsed by him, and it turned into a gray-white data stream that collapsed and scattered. The data stream that almost melted everything began to cover the ground, and some were lost.

Only the statues of Roland and the Three Saints have no data stream coverage.

But at this moment, An Ruosi noticed that when the rapidly spreading data streams like snakes and ants tried to contact his body, the gray-purple electric light that shot out of him could easily shatter them.

This discovery made An Ruosi lift his spirits immediately.

As long as he can really cause damage, he may block the professor——

But this illusion only lasted for a moment.

When he saw the terrifying monster standing up from the professor, he immediately realized that his defeat could not be changed.

It was a monster similar to the yellowish prayer behind Roland——

Completely composed of gray-white data streams, it was a huge monster curled up like a baby, faintly flashing with colorful lights.

Unlike the phantom behind Roland, the professor’s phantom emerged from his upper body. If you don’t look carefully, you might even think it’s a weirdo whose brain has expanded hundreds of times, but his body and legs are still the same size.

“Keeping secrets—those—”

As the professor’s form changed, his voice became more and more distorted and rough, and began to look like a poorly modulated electronic synthesis sound rather than a human voice, with a lot of unrecognizable noise in it.

The raging gray madness spread around him, and two groups of gray-white halos shone like a nebula with a strong luster, staring at An Ruosi with almost no dead ends.

dong dong!

When stared at by that gaze, An Ruosi’s heart shook violently, and her body floated silently.

Subconsciously, he evoked the defensive barrier. However, the chaotic thoughts rushing out from the depths of his heart interrupted his sorcery instantly.

At this moment, a faint yellow luster gradually spread out from the professor’s nebula-like silver-gray pupils.

– No, it’s bad!

However, by the time An Ruosi realized this, it was too late.

The next moment, the whistling gray wind completely drowned him.

“You say, Grey Storm?”

Roland frowned suspiciously: “In El Carter?”

Chris nodded with a wry smile: “That’s right. The inexplicable gray storm divided Elcatel into many areas… I guess, some ancient facility underground leaked.”

Saying that, she looked at Roland’s face before continuing: “The gray storm can’t be expelled whether it is pumping or burning, because I don’t know what this gray storm is, and the undead of other factions refuse to pass through the barrier of the storm. Came here for the meeting.”

“Because of the storm?”

Roland sneered: “Don’t joke, they just don’t want to come. As undead, how can they be afraid of death? Even if they forget the glory of the old days, they will not forget that they are actually cursed undead. “

Chris sighed, “I know that too, but…”

“No buts.”

Roland shook his head and stood up with the scepter.

“If they don’t come, we’ll go.” The silver-gray thorn pattern on Roland’s forehead slowly shone, “El Carter must be unified.”

Even so… In fact, in Roland’s heart, he has always felt a little uneasy.

When he entered Elcatel, Roland immediately discovered something very important.

The so-called Land Abandoned by Gods, Elkat, may not be referring to those false gods…

After entering the closed hood of Elcatel~www.mtlnovel.com~ Roland found that his connection with the three saints immediately became extremely weak. The voice of the long-sleeping mentor could not be heard. If it weren’t for the scepter as a connection to the mentor, I’m afraid it would be extremely difficult for him to even use the mentor’s magic.

but why?

Why would the saints be cut off from this land? Why haven’t the undead resurrected their faith in the saints until now? Why did the gods no longer pay attention to this land, but instead let the people think it was just a legend?

What are they going to bury? What is buried in this land?

Now Roland can’t hear the teacher’s voice, and the effect of the teacher’s magic has been reduced by half. The only good news is that the support of his followers is still fully effective.

In other words, Roland can only rely on himself now.

It can be said that this is the first time since he came to this world that he has completely relied on his own strength to act. (To be continued.)()
