After a short while, changes occurred in Aslite. Strange red lines covered her entire body, infusing her with new strength.
The Bloody Count smiled with satisfaction, and his eyes swept across the five culture devices in front of him, finally fixing his gaze on the slightly tall culture device in the center.
The device in the middle is similar to the other four culture device models, but it is also different.
The other culture devices all have transparent glass windows, through which one can see what's going on inside the culture devices. However, the glass of the middle device is grey and one cannot see what's going on inside clearly no matter what.
Even if you use detection magic to investigate, the detection magic will always be interfered with by something and will be completely cut off before it can be deployed.
Golvi and the others knew very little about what was going on inside the intermediate device.
In addition, when these devices were first discovered, the sockets on the other devices were empty, except for the socket on the middle device, which was equipped with a black energy bottle that could not be removed no matter what.
After transporting it back, they found that only four of the five special transformation devices could be used, and the device with the black energy bottle could not be used.
After repeated tentative explorations with little success, it can be basically determined what is being cultivated in the cultivation device with the black energy bottle inserted.
Golvi once tried to use the method of opening other culture devices, to forcibly intervene in that culture device and violently unlock it, but the protection level of that device was too high and it was completely motionless.
So far, Golvi has made countless efforts, but in front of this device, basically all of them have been wasted.
Without waiting for the Blood Count to ask, Golvi took the lead in expressing his regret to his master and said, "Master, I'm sorry, we still haven't found a way to open it. There is too little information about it."
"Really?" The Bloody Count acted extremely calm, as if he was not surprised by the result.
Golwei suddenly had an idea and thought of a way. He said, "Master, although there is no way to open it from the outside, we have recently begun to be able to sense the soul wandering in the instrument. Perhaps we can awaken his soul and make him come out from the inside."
After thinking for a while, the Bloody Count said, “You can try.
I don't need to say much about what preparations you need to make in advance.
These devices are very special and are part of the ruins of the Demon King's Castle.
What's inside might be the super soldier imprisoned by the previous demon king.
If my guess is correct, he should have heard of my name to some extent, and maybe he is someone I know.
If we can win him over, he might become a powerful force on our side.
Of course, we have to open it to know the details.
Remember, for safety reasons, go to a specific area before conducting experiments. If it turns out to be an uncontrollable creature, report to me immediately.
I will judge him and decide whether he lives or dies based on the circumstances."
Golwei nodded and said, "Leave it to me, Master."
The Bloody Count smiled contentedly, observed the development of the soldiers in other devices for a while, and then slowly left the cave.
What the Blood Count didn't know was that the black bottle on the central culture device was repeatedly purifying the surrounding magic power, which turned into a drop of dew and dripped down inside the culture device.
In a cultivation device where the outsiders could not see clearly what was inside, a dried corpse was immersed in a magic solvent with its hands crossed, head raised and mouth wide open.
The latest drop of liquid fell into the solvent, slightly raising the level of the solvent, allowing the pure liquid magic to cover the last bit of the mummy's head.
The miracle happened so quietly.
The dried corpse swelled up instantly and gradually became juicy, and its color also changed from lifeless yellow-brown to the white-yellow color of an ordinary person.
The magic solvent did not decrease, but the magic power inside it was greatly reduced and all entered the emaciated corpse.
In just a few hours, the skinny mummy became the same as an ordinary person.
The thing in the incubator returned to its original appearance. It was a rough middle-aged man. The back of his hand emitted a continuous elegant light, forming a very special pattern.
—It was a pattern with a circle in the center, connected to countless forked branches, and the ends of the branches formed circles on the outside.
The middle-aged man hugged his body, his lips trembling, and made a very weak sound:
"It's all about winning.
Everything is for our civilization.
Follow the orders of the superiors. We will carry out all your orders to the death.
All of this is for the ultimate victory.”
The man in the culture device kept muttering a few words over and over again. Suddenly, without any warning, a brown scale grew on the back of the middle-aged man's hand, covering the glowing pattern on the back of his hand. Then, the brown scales slowly spread on his arm, and long tails also grew out from his back.
Behind the culture device, a pair of cat eyes emitting blue light watched all this happen.
However, it did not intervene and just watched quietly.
With the help of the yacht, Yang Yu and his team were able to travel much faster and had more time to learn underwater combat skills under the guidance of Luo Luosi.
During the five days, Yang Yu and his team visited various mermaids and tentacle creatures living on the seabed.
As Yang Yu expected, they were all troubled by the expansion of the thorny-scaled lizards.
Following the principle of not being polite when gaining experience, Yang Yu challenged the strong men in their clan according to their rules. He made friends through martial arts and won people over with virtue, and gradually collected a lot of useful information.
After learning that Yang Yu was the winner of this Dragon God Conference, all races treated Yang Yu warmly and some even wanted to borrow his seeds in order to give birth to some strong offspring.
Yang Yu refused sternly.
What made him win the Dragon God Conference was not his bloodline, but his consciousness and skills.
If the children born to other people and him are not strictly trained, they will definitely be useless, and they will not be the kind with the halo of the protagonist, and will only be pinned to the ground and rubbed.
Seeing Yang Yu's refusal, the Sea Perches did not force it. They just hoped that when Yang Yu went in to conquer the underground maze, he could kill some thorny lizards at the same time to buy them more breathing space.
Yang Yu reluctantly agreed.
After visiting the last sea dweller, Yang Yu officially headed towards the sea area occupied by the thorny-scaled lizards.
In the boundless sea, some scattered islands gradually appeared.
After all, the spiny-scaled lizards are not true marine species. When they go to the sea, they rely on the bubble gills formed by the air fixed by the scales on their bodies to breathe underwater. Therefore, they still have to find an island as a base in order to live a stable life.
The sea areas without islands are naturally not within their expansion area.
