Chapter 259 Alchemical Transformation

Not long after.

The Holy Scorpion ran back, followed by Ibe Saburo, who was dressed as a miner.

"Sir, you are looking for me."

Ibe Saburo has become accustomed to the existence of the Holy Poison Scorpion, and is even more in awe of the adult in front of him.

Such a terrifying monster was subdued so easily.

Such magical power made him admire it.

"Well, Saburo, do you know the Fatui who are active in Inazuma?"

Wang Que asked.

A long time ago, when Wang Que started to study the evil eye, he had his eyes on this factory.

But later, Wang Que's [External Element Organ Technology] went its own way.

He no longer coveted this factory.

But things are different now. With his research on crystallized bone marrow, Sanlang can no longer keep up with mining alone.

So, Wang Que naturally thought of this factory again.

However, he roughly knew the existence of this factory, but Wang Que was not clear about its specific location.

After all, there is indeed a big gap between the real map and the game map.

Apart from the general area, many details are almost completely different.

When Jingbian Saburo heard Wang Que's words, he was stunned: "The Fatui? Those arrogant guys? Do you have any business with them?"

Maybe I felt that my tone was a bit rhetorical.

Sanlang quickly adjusted himself and said respectfully, "I've seen those guys. They have quite a few camps in the wild, and they've even bribed some stray nomads."

Wang Que nodded slightly: "Have you ever been bribed?"

There was a hint of curiosity in his tone.

Ibe Saburo nodded: "Of course, my strength is pretty good among wandering samurai."

"Then do you know why they are looking for wandering warriors?" Wang Que asked.

Ibe Saburo shook his head awkwardly: "Ha, I refused directly at the time, so they didn't tell me."

After a pause, as if to support his words, he continued, "I don't like the Fatui. Although they seek cooperation with us, they can't hide the contempt in their eyes."

"I am a warrior with a legacy. Although I have fallen into decline now, I don't want to accept their recruitment."

Wang Que raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Jingbian Sanlang was a man of integrity.

But when I think about the way the other person begged for mercy.

Wang Que shook his head again.

Yes, there is backbone, but it should not be much.

If the Fatui had used violence at that time, he would probably have agreed, right?

"If I ask you to find them and join them, can you do it?" Wang Que looked at him.

Jingbian Saburo was stunned, then hesitated: "Join them? You want me to infiltrate them and gather intelligence for you? That's fine, but I can't join them now."

Although samurai are not ninjas, they do know a little about things like collecting intelligence.

So collecting intelligence was nothing to Ibe Saburo.

"The Fatui invited me because of my strength, but now..." Ibe Saburo showed an embarrassed expression.

After Wang Que took away his Weishen Talisman, most of his strength was gone.

Samurai with only martial arts skills? Inazuma certainly has them.

The most important thing about Kailuan Gui is the use of elemental power.

Without the elemental power, the sea ghosts are not much stronger than those wild people who play with gunpowder.

"Well, strength, that makes sense."

Wang Que held his chin with one hand and nodded slightly.

Jingbian Saburo's eyes lit up. Is the lord going to return the talisman to me?

Then he saw a subtle smile on Wang Que's face: "Come, lie down on the test bench, I will give you strength."

Although he studied here for several days.

But on the other hand, the timeline in Liyue has not stopped.

Except for the progress of the floating city.

The biggest progress in Liyue is that Wang Que received angel investment from Bai Zhu.

Successfully upgraded [Black Earth Alchemy] from [lv.6] to [lv.7].

Black Earth Alchemy. Level 7 (Advanced knowledge inherited from ancient nations; black earth and chalk, the universe and the earth's strata, the immaculate earth gave birth to the original human. The essence of life is so beautiful, that spiral staircase is your long step to godhood. Please reach the limit of your life level before striving for the sweetest fruit.)

(At this stage, upgrading the level requires one billion Mora/level.)]

[Black Soil Alchemy lv7] only gave Wang Que a new skill.

[Primitive Life Transformation Technology]: Use high-level materials to transform life so that it possesses some of the characteristics of primitive organisms.

Wang Que didn't know what a primitive-like creature was.

But he knew that Albedo had a nickname, "The Original Perfection with Flaws", which means "The Imperfect Original Man".

The word "original" has a special meaning in Teyvat, and can even refer to certain high-level beings.

It’s a pity that in the introduction of new technology, there is not much introduction about the original.

But it doesn't matter. As he uses and understands this technology, he will naturally get more information.

At the same time, the breakthrough in [Black Earth Alchemy] also multiplied his understanding of alchemy, especially life alchemy.

Some of the things about the logic of life that I didn’t quite understand before suddenly became completely clear to me.

It was as if... a path appeared in front of Wang Que, waiting for Wang Que to step on it and achieve success.

Perhaps, just as the skill introduction says, the spiral staircase of life is the long step for Wang Que to ascend to godhood.

When Wang Que was thinking about [Original Life Transformation Technology].

Ibe Saburo's face turned pale.

Let yourself lie on the test bench?

Although he had seen the Holy Scorpion go up several times in these days.

Wang Quedu performed no surgery after a simple examination.

But if he really went, he would be a little scared.

Wang Que thought about it and waited for a moment, and found that Jingbian Saburo did not move.

Suddenly feeling a little dissatisfied, she glanced at him and said, "Are you waiting for me to treat you?"

Ibe Saburo shuddered, and finally remembered that he was the enemy's prisoner.

Although I was still a little scared, I had no choice but to walk towards the test bench step by step.

"Don't worry, there's no danger. It's a good thing."

Seeing this, Wang Que also tried to comfort him.

During surgery, the patient's mood and inner strength will also affect the probability of success.

He didn't lie to the other party. It was just a simple reconstruction surgery and nothing would happen.

Besides, Wang Que had done something to his body a long time ago.

It's just a simple reconstruction operation, and I have already become proficient in it.

Saburo Ibe calmed down a little, then quickened his pace towards the test bench.

Beside, the Holy Scorpion tilted its head.

It was a little confused. Shouldn't it eat first and then go up?

Why is the process of this biped different from it?

Wang Que naturally didn't know about the Saint Poison Scorpion's doubts.

After Jingbian Saburo lay down, he walked over and put his hand on his forehead: "Go to sleep for a while."

A rune flashed on the palm of his hand, and Ibe Saburo, who was a little worried, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Nodding with satisfaction, Wang Que's eyes fell on the other person's body.

"When using extraordinary materials to transform life, the first thing to solve is the problem of extraordinary rejection."

"Not everyone can withstand extraordinary power."

"If not handled properly, rejection could lead to death."

"However, as a sea demon, Ibe Saburo has excellent physical fitness. Coupled with his long-term use of the Weishen Talisman, he has become somewhat adaptable to elemental forces."

Looking at the test bench in front of him, Wang Que thought for a moment, then stretched out his finger.

Dark purple alchemical runes appeared at his fingertips, and three overlapping magic circles instantly lit up around the test bench.

He took out a fist-sized evil spirit crystal purified from crystallized bone marrow.

With a flick of his fingertips, the evil spirit crystal floated above Jingbian Saburo's chest, and the surging amethyst mist inside the crystal twisted like a living thing.

“The key to quasi-primitiveness lies in the upgrading of life forms”

"Use high-level materials to assimilate the transformed."

Wang Que muttered to himself, and suddenly stabbed Jingbian Saburo's chest with his left hand.

The strange thing was that no blood gushed out - his palm seemed to turn into a phantom, directly grasping the other person's beating heart.

The alchemy array suddenly shrank, and the evil spirit crystals turned into liquid and seeped into the skin, constantly converging towards the heart, forming spider-web-like purple lines on the body surface.

"Well!"

While in a coma, Ibe Saburo suddenly convulsed violently, his back arched and his spine almost broke.

In the corner, the Holy Poison Scorpion took two steps back in fear. It sensed that the familiar power of the evil god was running rampant on the test bench.

The originally delicious food made it feel like the threat of death.

If Wang Que hadn't been still standing there, it would have wanted to run away.

Wang Que naturally did not notice the changes in the Holy Poison Scorpion.

His pupils were now slightly constricted, and he frowned as he watched the changes in Ibe Saburo.

According to the theory, the evil spirit crystal should reconstruct the heart of the experimental subject into a [primitive-like] organ.

Because of the heart's hematopoietic function, this primitive-like organ will continuously produce new blood, which will then have an evolution-like effect on the entire body system of the transformer.

But now, Ibe Saburo's meridians are crystallizing - this is an obvious rejection reaction.

Wang Que quickly mobilized the power of alchemy, trying to suppress the crystallization, but found that purple lines had spread to the face of the experimental subject, and snake-like protrusions were faintly emerging under the skin.

In an instant, Wang Que understood what was going on.

"Orochi's power, isn't it considered high?"

"So, the transformation surgery did not go as expected, but instead triggered the power of the Great Orochi, infecting Ibe Saburo with the demonic power."

The power of the devil is terrifying. If the devil does not intentionally restrain himself, a mortal who stays near the devil may be infected by his power.

Just like ordinary people cannot survive in an environment with high concentrations of elements.

This was not intentional by the demon god, it was simply a difference in life energy levels.

After understanding what was going on, Wang Que was no longer worried.

The experiment failed, but not completely.
