The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 266 Research

Soon, under the Nova Corps' methodical and swift attacks, the aggressive invading army was routed like a receding tide.

On the invading side, having already suffered heavy losses in their previous clashes with Wes, and now facing internal command chaos and low morale, they were utterly powerless against the Nova Corps' fierce offensive.

Wes breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the Nova Corps had successfully driven the invading forces off the planet.

This invasion crisis was deliberately provoked by himself. Although the purpose was to deal with those enemies who coveted the Power Gem, fortunately, it did not cause too many casualties in the end, which can be considered a blessing in disguise.

He glanced at Ebony Maw, Ronan, Black Dwarf, and Nebula, who were bound by his magic, and then led them back to the mage tower.

Weiss walked straight into a room dedicated to research and first roughly placed Nebula on the dissection table.

Nebula was filled with fear at this moment, and her eyes were filled with panic.

The cyborg body writhed on the dissection table, emitting a soft metallic clanging sound.

However, Wes wouldn't consider her feelings.

In his eyes, Nebula was nothing more than a research subject with a special physical structure.

Wes reached out and gently stroked Nebula's body.

His fingers gently glided over Nebula's cold skin, feeling no warmth at all, only a cold, metallic texture.

As far as the eye can see, some places still bear clear traces of the transformation. These traces, some deep and some shallow, seem to be silently telling the story of the painful transformation process that Nebula once underwent.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and continued to explore the internal structure of Nebula's body.

It is clear that many of the organs in Nebula's body have been replaced by various kinds of machinery.

Nebula's body structure is extremely unique; she can even survive after being broken down into a large number of parts.

Each part of her body seemed to have a unique function, but none of them were indispensable, because if any part was damaged, it could simply be replaced with a new one.

Theoretically speaking, with such a miraculous body structure, Nebula has almost achieved immortality.

This form of existence, characterized by "physical weakness and mechanical ascension," is undoubtedly a unique evolutionary direction, breaking the conventional biological understanding of life and the body.

However, this kind of evolution is not what Weiss is pursuing.

In his view, the mystery of life has a deeper and more diverse connotation, and cannot be fully explained simply by mechanical replacement and splicing.

He shook his head slightly, then casually tossed Nebula aside as if it were a disposable item, and turned his attention to Ebony Maw.

Ebony Maw has a peculiar octopus face with strangely distributed features and a pair of eyes that gleam with cunning and depth.

Ebony Maw belongs to a cosmic race with a very high level of evolution.

Throughout the long evolution of the universe, their race has undergone countless transformations and developments, gradually forming an extremely unique and complex life system.

They possess highly developed intelligence and physical abilities far surpassing those of ordinary races. They not only have strong adaptability but also possess some unique talents, such as Ebony Maw's telekinesis, which allows him to manipulate objects with mental power and produce unexpected effects in battle.

Weiss stood intently in front of the dissection table, his eyes revealing a strong thirst for unknown knowledge.

At this moment, Ebony Maw lay there helplessly, bound and powerless, like a lamb to the slaughter.

Wes slowly reached out, his movements gentle yet undeniably resolute, and gently opened Ebony Maw's peculiar head.

As the skull was slowly opened, Ebony Maw's hidden brain was revealed to Wes.

The brain was not large, only about the size of a fist, yet it emitted a ghostly green light that seemed particularly eerie in the dimly lit dissection room.

Wes narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully examining the brain that emitted a mysterious light, secretly marveling at the peculiar structure of the cosmic race.

Then, Wes carefully picked up the wand in his hand.

He gently brought the wand close to Ebony Maw's brain, as if touching an extremely precious yet fragile treasure.

Just as the wand was about to touch his brain, Wes uttered a single word: "Analysis."

With that soft murmur, a gentle magical light instantly emanated from the wand, slowly enveloping Ebony Maw's brain and beginning to use magical power to deeply analyze its structure.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Weiss, meanwhile, was completely focused on the scene before him, not missing a single detail that might appear.

After a while, the magical light gradually dimmed, signifying that the analysis of the brain's structure was complete.

Wes let out a soft breath, a satisfied look on his face.

He then skillfully took out a specially made preservation container and carefully placed Ebony Maw's brain inside, ensuring that the brain could be properly preserved for further research in the future.

As for Ebony Maw, the moment Wes removed his brain, his body shuddered violently, and then he stopped breathing completely.

The once-powerful figure who left behind the infamous Black Tongue in the universe with his powerful telekinesis and cunning wisdom has now quietly ended his life, becoming a victim of Wes's pursuit of knowledge.

After dealing with Ebony Maw, Wes's gaze fell on Ronan, who was also bound.

Ronan, the once-mighty Accuser, is a well-known figure in the universe. His tall and mighty physique and the powerful warhammer in his hand have inspired fear in countless people.

However, at this moment, in Wes's eyes, he had become nothing more than material for research.

Without the slightest hesitation, Wes began dissecting Ronan methodically once again, just as before.

He first carefully examined Ronan's external body structure, noting down every unique feature, before slowly picking up his tools and beginning to delve into the mysteries within.

After a meticulous dissection, Wes carefully preserved Ronan's body. In his view, the physical structures of these different cosmic races could provide important clues for him to unlock the mysteries of life in the universe.
