Honkai Impact, I'm not a Ditto!

soon......

Once the culture tank was ready, Sikong was placed horizontally inside, filled with nutrient solution, and the transparent glass lid was closed.

The whole process was indeed a bit terrifying.

Sikong felt like he was being stuffed into a pig cage.

The gushing nutrient solution was terrifying.

Breathing... The liquid entered his lungs through his nasal cavity, making Sikong feel very uncomfortable. The air in his lungs was being expelled little by little, and the nutrient solution filled his lungs.

"It's okay... I don't feel suffocated, and after getting used to it, it actually feels pretty good..."

With each breath, a large amount of nutrient solution flowed in and out.

Oxygen enters the body through the alveoli and is then carried throughout the body by the blood.

The culture jar, which was originally horizontal, slowly stood up.

I don't know what the people outside did.

The culture tank suddenly became a weightless environment, and under an unknown force, Sikong's body floated in the center of the culture tank, keeping his eyes open throughout the process.

Then, through the two layers of transparent glass, I saw two men.

One had blond hair and green eyes, the other had white hair and blue eyes.

"Otto... and Dr. Magee, who stole the Tranquility Gem from the comics..."

Although Sikong had never seen them before, he guessed their identities in an instant. In addition to these two, he also saw the Crimson Iris Immortal walk out from the side and come behind Otto.

Squad Leader Fu Hua's face remained expressionless as she calmly gazed at Sikong in the culture tank.

A few minutes later.

"Experiment No. 541, B-level Fate Knight, Sikong, vital signs normal, experiment begins, implant the Tranquility Gem into the subject's body."

Researchers carefully extracted the blue, tranquil gemstone.

A massive surge of Honkai energy instantly entered Sikong's perception.

then......

The Tranquil Gem was placed into a culture tank, where a robotic arm guided it toward Sikong's chest.

"The Gem of Tranquility! Fusion has begun!"

A flicker of excitement flashed in Otto's eyes.

The fusion of gems is a good sign. It's worth noting that many Valkyries can't even fuse with the Tranquility Gem; they are often obliterated by the powerful Honkai energy as soon as they come into contact with the gem.

As a gem possessing the power of a Herrscher.

For most people, even a single touch could be fatal.

"Integration rate 1%......Integration rate 3%......"

As time goes by, the fusion rate between Sikong and the Tranquil Gem is steadily increasing.

The excitement in Otto's eyes slowly faded.

"It's a bit slow... Given his adaptability to the Tranquil Gem, the fusion rate should be over 20% by now... or even higher."

Dr. Magee remained silent, knowing that the faster the gem's fusion rate increased, the better.

The slower, the worse.

Fast indicates high adaptability, while slow indicates relatively low adaptability.

"Could it be that the judgment was wrong? Sikong's adaptability to the Tranquility Gem is not 30%?"

The previous A-rank Valkyrie, Lynn, who had a compatibility of over ten percent with the Tranquil Gem, also achieved a fusion rate of over ten percent at this time, which even gave Otto hope of success.

Unfortunately, Lin still failed.

The A-rank Valkyrie's body couldn't withstand the corrosive power of Honkai energy and eventually turned to ash...

This incident also led to Dr. Magee's defection.

Because Lynn is Dr. Magee's granddaughter!

Sikong has a 30% adaptability to the Tranquil Gemstone.

The integration rate is only three percent now, which is far from Otto's expectations.

The longer the gem fusion process takes, the more likely it is to fail. After all, Honkai energy will continuously erode the Valkyrie's body, and even an A-rank Valkyrie can't withstand it for long, let alone a B-rank Valkyrie.

"Or am I being a little too hasty? We should wait until he becomes an A-rank... But how long would that take? His Honkai energy resistance is only B-rank. It will take a long time for him to become an A-rank Valkyrie. Maybe he won't even be able to become an A-rank at all!"

If he could... Otto really didn't want to wait a second longer; he desperately wanted to revive Kallen.

Dr. Magee, standing to the side, glanced at the blond man muttering to himself, but remained silent.

However, Otto took the initiative to talk to him.

"Doctor, weren't you usually very agitated in situations like this? Why do you seem so calm today? Are you still thinking about your granddaughter? That was something she did willingly."

Dr. Magee didn't want to talk. Right now, he was making plans in his mind, most likely considering stealing the Tranquility Gem and betraying Destiny to join Anti-Entropy.

Otto, having made a fool of himself, then looked at Fu Hua.

Do you think Sikong can persevere?

"I don't know, but I'm willing to believe him."

Fu Hua took a deep breath.

The fusion process has only progressed to five percent, but Sikong is already showing signs of becoming a suicide soldier.

The situation is not optimistic.

The Tranquil Gem has begun to fuse, and the fusion progress has reached 10%.

These are two hurdles.

Most of the Valkyries tested failed at the fusion stage, a small number got stuck before 10%, and very few were able to achieve a fusion progress of more than 10%.

"My body...is having problems..."

Even though he was completely paralyzed, Sikong could sense that something was wrong, and the anesthetic effect on his body was gradually fading under the influence of Honkai energy.

"Ouch! It hurts so much!" Sikong's eyes widened. He looked down slightly and saw his discolored skin. "This is... assassin transformation? Did the Tranquility Gem transplant fail?"

The screen next to me suddenly turned red.

"Fusing error!"

Chapter 89 Gemstone Liberation

A red mark appeared on Sikong's chest.

These are unique stigmata belonging to the Herrscher.

Raiden Mei also has this thing, but hers is on her waist, and its color and shape are completely different from Sikong's. The Herrscher stigmata on his body are the same as the one on Seele's chest.

After all, they are all related to the Herrscher of Death.

"The experimental subject cannot withstand high concentrations of Honkai energy!"

"My body is starting to break down!"

A warning sounded.

Fine cracks appeared on the glass surface of the culture tank, and specks of black mist swirled around Sikong, as if draping him in a black cloak.

Fu Hua clenched her fist involuntarily.

A flicker of disappointment crossed Otto's eyes, but he hadn't given up on Sikong yet, after all...

Everyone knows that the other party has the ability to recover quickly.

The show has just begun.

"My body... is starting to disappear? How can this be!" Sikong glanced at his rapidly vanishing limbs. "Form transformation! Restore!"

In an instant, Sikong's broken body returned to normal.

The screen, which was originally glowing red, turned blue.

"The experimental subject's vital signs have returned to normal."

"Integration rate 10%! Integration rate 15%! Integration rate is growing rapidly!"

"A miracle! This is simply a miracle!"

Otto's pupils dilated suddenly; he was excited, thinking to himself, "I knew it! He could do it!"

Dr. Magee, with her white hair and blue eyes, braced her hands against the glass outside the laboratory, her heart filled with turbulent emotions.

Fu Hua's clenched fist loosened slightly.

"Sikong! Let the power of the Herrscher of Death descend upon this world once more!" Otto opened his arms, seemingly embracing an unknown being. "As long as that power exists, I will surely be able to reunite with Kallen!"

Sikong, inside the culture tank, couldn't hear what Otto was saying.

All you can see is the other person's mouth opening and closing.

There was also a hint of worry flashing in the eyes of the Crimson Iris Immortal.

"I thought Squad Leader Fu Hua could always keep a poker face... Turns out she still cares about me even in a situation like this."

After a morphological transformation.

Sikong's health returned to normal, but soon...

The extremely high concentration of Honkai energy formed a black mist that damaged his body, causing him pain once again. He could only continuously rely on changing his form to resist the effects of the Honkai energy.

The body disappeared and then returned, half an hour later.

The fusion rate of the Tranquil Gem has soared from 15% to 90%.

Otto was overjoyed.

Dr. Maggie's expression was calm, even showing a hint of sadness.

"If... if you had appeared sooner, my granddaughter wouldn't have..."
