Chapter 355: 003. Spellcasters Potential_3

Perfect—The word sprang to mind within Leo’s depths.

To describe the beauty before him as perfect seemed insufficiently perfect. But with his meager store of knowledge, he could not think of a more fitting description than perfect.

Leo was stunned for an instant, but the beauty before him suddenly launched a surprise attack, mercilessly thrusting a sword through his throat.

"Ugh—"

As Leo’s consciousness had not yet extinguished, he faintly felt the other dragging his ankle, rapidly moving toward a certain location in the forest. Shortly after, the assassin beauty rummaged through the woods, and from a pile of leaves and sticks, unearthed a massive silver swimming pool?

Snap!

Leo’s body was instantly thrown into the pool, where his consciousness quickly blurred and eventually vanished, while his body, maintained by various agents, healed the wounds and preserved life.

"Truly tough to deal with, I didn’t kill him with one blow; this fellow’s physical quality is quite strong!"

Li Aozi let out a sigh of relief, looking at the male body quietly settling at the bottom of the Biological Pool, he still nodded in satisfaction.

No matter what, he finally got the body, which took him a whole week. Later, he would have to move the Biological Pool back near the ruins; leaving it here was too exposed.

"Now, comes the crucial moment."

Li Aozi raised his hand, and Neural Tentacles popped out of his palm, immediately piercing into the neck of the blond brute, his cells rapidly dividing and entering the brute’s body.

[Detection of a new unconscious body. You may choose to contaminate this body with your cells, transforming it into your Implant Gear, or as an original body.]

[Cell invasion complete]

[Contaminating...]

Divide, engulf, combine, assimilate, complete the replacement.

The whole process was already routine for Li Aozi. In a short while, red and black flashes appeared in his eyes.

[Chromosomes have been altered, genetic modification complete]

[The target has been contaminated by you—you may select one of the following options as the final treatment]:

A—Possessive Body: Retain the target’s Talent, merely existing as your backup body, but when you switch to this body, you won’t inherit any of your original body’s main attribute outside of extraordinary specialties. (Conditions fulfilled for use)

B—Transformation into Implant Gear: Transform the target into a biological weapon, you can wear this Implant Gear, unleashing its combat effectiveness to the utmost, but the Gear requires regular maintenance and upkeep. (Conditions fulfilled for use)

C—Incorporate as Follower: After genetically modifying this body, implant part of your thought cells to make it one of your Followers, but its offspring will have a chance to inherit one of your own Arcane Energies and Talents (Conditions not fulfilled for use: [Intelligence] below 80)

"Hmm, shame, option C is the most interesting, but my intelligence doesn’t meet the threshold."

The option to incorporate as Followers, Li Aozi remembered, was very suitable for Sovereign series players of Zerg origin, who could easily spawn hundreds of offspring, not lagging behind Biochemists in terms of productivity—though these offspring generally weren’t very bright and could easily give themselves away.

Li Aozi had intended to choose A from the start, without much hesitation, he selected ’Possessive Body’.

The body shivered slightly, the familiar soul left the body, and the consciousness ascended slowly from the Implant Gear body. Li Aozi took a moment to get used to the motion of the mind before slowly drifting toward the blond brute.

[Transmitting Consciousness...]

[Significant genetic difference detected, troubleshooting...]

[Neural link unresponsive]

[Re-linking...]

[Transmission of Consciousness complete]
