Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 989 971. 'Complement' and 'Enhancement'

After all, Tissaya is an ancient mage who learned and grew up from the first batch of mages who mastered the magic of chaos.

She has been accumulating magic power for longer than most countries today.

Margarita's talent is good, but Tissaya's talent is not bad compared to it.

Otherwise, he would not have been selected and imparted knowledge by those terrifying 'first-generation mages' who took control of the magic of chaos as soon as they came into contact with it.

Spending magic power to support the accelerated process of an experiment is not even something worth worrying about for her.

"Refer to A-37 for the experimental process."

Lan En was still writing and drawing on the recording board with his head down, and he was issuing commands familiarly to control the progress of the experiment.

Phylicia Keli next to her obviously did not suffer from the laziness common among sorceress apprentices, otherwise Tisaya would not have chosen her as an experimental assistant in the first place.

When Lan En said the test number, she started working with ease.

Under Felicia's floating technique, a portion of bone meal-like powder and a pile of Valyrian steel particles broken into beans-sized pieces were gently put into the culture tank.

During this process, Lan En took the time to lift his eyes from the record board. After seeing that both things were put in safely, he lowered his head and started writing and drawing.

The bone powder is still something scraped from [turbid current and destruction].

The material scraped off the white blade is equivalent to the white thorns on the Nergigante's body.

The bean-sized Valyrian steel grains specially customized from Berengar were adjustments made by Lan En in order to increase the reaction area after he learned the lessons from the last experiment and made improvements.

Both substances entered the culture tank, and then Felicia used the floating technique to bring a ball of liquid, which was the growth liquid configured according to the ideas left by Lan En.

The basic role of the growth medium in the crystal culture project is to allow cells that have lost their regenerative properties due to being too functional to start dividing and proliferating again.

This is the technical route determined after Lan En brought back the keel and prepared the first version of the growth solution.

The data flow on the retina washed down like a waterfall, and Lan En's attention was focused on the formulas and data.

And keenly find the key nodes in the data and focus on them.

Mentos's powerful computing power was temporarily withdrawn from the "Analysis of Spell Fire" and put into the current experiment.

"The calculation progress is 98% and 99% completed, sir."

The last bit of the data stream was flushed, and Mentos changed the display format projected on Lan's retina.

Convert large amounts of data into three-dimensional images.

It was a small bundle of metal wires, twisted and intertwined like plant roots.

[Tendin Coil], also known as [Inner Steel].

The second step in a Primaris Space Marine's surgery.

This is also the first time Lan En has used the technology of the crystal culture project to cultivate this special organ.

The special features of this enhanced organ are different from the previous ones.

Because its essence is actually a self-proliferating nanomachine, but Lan En used the biomass of the Nergigante to achieve 'self-proliferation' with this ancient dragon material with super-regenerative capabilities.

However, the main body of this reinforced organ is still Valyrian steel as an inorganic substance.

The crystal cultivation project is used to cultivate human tissue, that is, biomass. Adding control of inorganic substances to this process is a huge technological leap.

Even with Lan En's biotechnology and talent, he only achieved this step by taking advantage of the characteristics of Valyrian steel that can be highly integrated with biomass.

And in the process, it failed many times.

It can even be said that this is the experiment that has failed the most since Lan En entered the research field.

But fortunately, this time he felt it was time to succeed.

The data compiled by Mentos was refined and extracted by Lan En, and finally he wrote and drew on the record board in his hand.

In the end, he tore off the recording paper with a 'stab' sound and handed it to Tissaya behind the desk, who was preparing to transfer magic power.

"The parameters are all here."

Lan En said with a smile.

"I think the success rate will be very high this time."

Tissaya took the paper. The data on it made her nod while looking at it, but she also frowned at the same time.

"You added inorganic substances into the crystal culture experiment? As a strengthening structure of the body?"

This was the first time since she came back that she had connected with Lan En's experimental progress.

Before this, she had no idea that the witcher had advanced the experiment to this extent.

Are they actually starting to build inorganic reinforced structures into cultured organs?
The crystal cultivation experiment was originally just to achieve 'regeneration of severed limbs'.

But in the early stages of research, Tissaya and many research participants already foreseed that the project's prospects would be much more than that.

The purpose of 'regeneration of severed limbs' is ultimately to 'make up for shortcomings'.

People who are missing arms have arms again, people who are missing legs have legs again.
But if the development of things is just so rigid and monotonous, such a wonderful world cannot be born.

Aphrodisiacs were originally only intended to allow men with fertility defects to 'make up' themselves to the level of a normal person. However, when men who were originally normal people discovered that aphrodisiacs were also useful for them, and could even make their abilities exceed the so-called 'ordinary' level, this resulted in the consistent prosperity of aphrodisiacs in the alchemy market.

The same is true for the magical cream's enhancement of female charm.

Even the great nobleman of Coville, who had his lower body scratched by an evil spirit and had it removed directly to prevent infection, emphasized this in the communication before the experiment.

I hope that during the cultivation, the size of his lower body will be increased to a "smaller" size.

Crystal cultivation programs can be used to enhance certain functions of the human body, which is happening just as many research participants like Tissaya envisioned.

Placing metal brackets in the body to increase strength is a dream for warriors.

It's just that big businessmen and nobles who can really affect the progress of the experiment with their own needs and investments basically don't need to undergo this kind of 'warrior-like' transformation.

They are more inclined to use this technology to make their lives more comfortable and longer.

Those enhancements that can increase combat ability often fail to do these things. Instead, they make the body feel more tired, more uncomfortable, and live shorter.

Therefore, except for Lan En, no one has done follow-up research in this area.

And even for Tissaya, her idea of ​​this research direction was just a simple and crude thought.

For example, when building an arm, a metal shim crafted by a skilled blacksmith is inserted into it.

Let the flesh and blood automatically wrap around the metal and fix it on the outside of the bones to increase resistance.

And she had never imagined that in Lan En's research, inorganic substances and organic substances had penetrated into each other and cooperated to such a precise level.

But Tissaya could no longer afford to be surprised, because the experiment was already running.

The pure crystal under the culture tank began to glow slightly, and the runes on the staggered rune cloth pressed under the crystal also began to light up one by one.

Tissaya held the parameter drawing that Lan En handed her in one hand, and raised the other hand to face the platform in the distance where the experimental process was being carried out.

The roaring bear head pendant around the witcher's neck began to move violently, seeming to dance on his chest.

Huge chaos magic power is being poured into the experimental device through Tisaya's hand.

Lan En was already sitting with one leg on the desk in front of Tissaya, crossing his arms and looking at the culture tank where the reaction was taking place not far away.

Precise magic control, precise alchemical design, precise growth solution configuration, and precise integrated calculations.
He has calculated all the experimental conditions to perfection.

Technology and hard work will not betray yourself.

Lan En looked at the thing that was gradually taking shape in the culture tank, and the corner of his mouth curled up with a subtle arc.

With Tisaya's huge magic power as a catalyst, the reaction process was greatly accelerated.

The bone meal with the same origin as the Nergigante began to seep into the bean-sized steel particles. Then, the steel particles were elongated and shaped by the Nergigante material that began to grow.

It turned into a large bundle of wires that were tangled together and scattered like plant roots.

The air in the laboratory trembled faintly. Even if Tisaya's magic power was not woven into magic, but simply output, the amount was too great.

Chaos magic, which is inherently dangerous to living beings, causing distortion and death, and making living beings feel uncomfortable, is accumulating in the room.

Even Felicia, the sorceress apprentice, or Lann, the witcher.

The two people who were both users of chaos magic felt a sense of instinctive disgust.

If an ordinary person were here, he would probably have vomiting, muscle twitches, confusion, and even physical deformities in the future.

The release of chaotic magic that made the air tremble soon suddenly stopped.

Because Tissaya should do this now according to the parameters Lan En gave her.

Her rigorous character ensures that every step is within the plan.

The magic that caused discomfort was gone.

"Did the experiment succeed?"

Tissaya stood up from her chair and placed the papers recording the experimental parameters in her hands neatly on the table.

Then he walked around the table and stepped forward.

The huge amount of magic power delivered just now didn't seem to be much of a burden to her.

"Yes."

Lan En also stood up from the edge of the table and walked towards the test bench.

Felicia used the floating spell with a wink to fish out the results of the experiment from the culture tank.

The small bundle of metal wires was still dripping with growth fluid that had become as transparent as water because it had exhausted its effective substances.

Lan En took a step forward and held the [Inner Steel] in his hand.

He pulled certain wires with care and precision.

"The bearing capacity of a single root is in line with expectations, the shape is in line with expectations, and the metal has the recovery and memory properties of living organisms. It is fully qualified."
