Steel steam and flame

All the concentrated dragon blood was absorbed, but it seemed that it was still not enough. Hunger spread throughout the body, and the stomach pouch was also filled with extremely acidic gastric juice. As if no more food entered the stomach pouch, they would It's normal to dissolve your entire stomach.

Several layers of dry and wrinkled skin covered the whole body, with holes pierced by scales. Cassia endured the uncomfortable hunger, took off her clothes and cut off all the layers of skin on her body, wearing a fresh and elastic body. His skin gave him the feeling of being reborn.

The feeling of touch has improved two or three times compared to when he came here. He remembered that when he shed the first layer of skin, he could capture the weak air flow very well. But now, the flow of air has become completely instinctive, just like as long as you have a pair of healthy eyes, you can see things naturally. The flow of subtle atmosphere is processed by the brain's electrical signals, and a different line pattern appears in the brain every moment.

The sense of transparency also disappeared, and Cassia lit a fire. In less than half an hour, all the food he had prepared for himself for the next week and a half was eaten. There is no sign of bulging in the belly, and even the most basic physiological activities of human beings have not appeared.

The functions of various organs are different from those not long ago. I originally thought they would fail, but now they are all much stronger. Especially his digestion ability. Cassia patted his belly, and the hollow sound made him suspect that he had not eaten anything at all. There is still a strong sense of hunger, and the high-energy fat in the body has long been consumed. If it were not for the second stage of the operation, Cassia's current situation would not be like this. At that time, there will probably be a vicious cycle of muscles being forcibly dissolved and used as energy supplements.

The air fluoresced, and Cassia tried to take a deep breath. This was an area that had not been damaged by industry, but he still felt that it was full of the choking smell of dust.

"So that's it." Talking to herself, Cassia opened her arms and bathed in the breeze in the forest at night. Using his skin and the perception of his own breathing, he saw the "bacteria" on the dust from another perspective. The air also emits a dim green fluorescence for this very reason.

After putting on clothes, amidst the continuous "crackling" sound, the joints of the bones in the newborn body made crisp sounds.

"It seems that the strength has also increased?" Cassia punched the air a few times, then looked at her much thinner arms and murmured to herself, "It is true that those hazy white lights did harm to me, but now, I seem to have received a lot of help from it. Could it be that like all the surrounding organisms that were infected with 'germs', I also became abnormal because of this, but because of the surgery, this mutation happened much faster than them? "

Originally, because of Sukarius's two methods, the nature of his body was much different from that of other surgeons. Now, coupled with the abnormalities caused by the white light, Cassia did not worry much. When things here are over and he has the opportunity to return to the military school, those professors will definitely be happy to answer these questions for him. And according to his speculation, the reason why his energy consumption is so huge may be related to the fact that the surgery has been upgraded to the middle of the second stage.

The assimilation and fusion of dragon tissues in the body is indeed a step closer than before.

He didn't think much about it. He just wanted to fill his stomach now. Everything had changed after the operation, but the hunger that came from the stomach bag was always the same, and because of the increased sensitivity after the operation, times.

I remember that there were many fish in the lake next to the town. Not long ago, Cassia would not eat those fish. Because of the food chain, those creatures have more germs accumulated in their bodies. But now there is no need to worry about it anymore. This is a very intuitive idea. There is no why or specific reason, it is just the simple answer given by Cassia's body.

After walking less than a few dozen meters, under the pale moonlight, the lake surface glowing with green and white light came into Cassia's eyes. This kind of night made Cassia feel an infiltrating silence around her, and the surroundings became even quieter.

With guilt, Cassia sighed as he stood by the lake, as if he was praying to something under the cold moonlight.

"You don't have to worry about food for the next few days." Looking at the entire lake occupied by dead fish carcasses, the cold moonlight reflected by the fish scales made the place completely silvery white, "Decades ago, those who returned here This is probably the scene that people saw."

As he spoke, Cassia walked into the cold lake, grabbed a fish at random, and began to solve his hunger problem with the clear lake water.

At this moment, this already deserted mountain range can truly be regarded as an uninhabited area. Losing the ability to feel the fresh morning air, Cassia watched the orange-red sun rise slowly under the light blue skyline by the lake, gradually coating the dead fish carcasses covering the entire lake with a layer of red. Come.

Fish bones were piled up in five or six small piles by the lake. Cassia didn't know how much she ate last night. It's just that the reduction of hunger simply made him feel very comfortable. These fish were not very delicious, and eating became a mechanical action afterwards. The only thing he still remembers is that he subconsciously opened his mouth to eat, and then threw the fish bones behind him in a systematic process, and the cycle continued.

Returning to the resting place, he lit a fire and dried his clothes. Two empty steel cans were leaning against the corner, and on the ground next to them were several special syringes. All the dragon blood brought this time has been used up.

"We have found the approximate location. In a short time, we will probably be able to find the second-generation holy sword left by Groat. Now ask Delya and the others to send me a few cans of concentrated dragon blood by mail. , there seems to be no need for time." After finding the Holy Sword, Cassia knew that she would definitely leave here, return to Delya and the others and start taking advantage of this opportunity to develop her own power.

But the main reason was that when Cassia found herself completely quiet, strange things appeared in her perception, all of which came from the bones in various parts of her body.

"These should be the black scales hidden in my body."

But the feeling is still very weak at the moment, just a little bit of connection. Cassia felt that as long as she tried more and waited until she was completely familiar with this feeling, it would be possible to enter the scaly state without relying on the stimulation of dragon blood.

Looking at the rolling mountains in front of him, Cassia returned to the resting place to prepare another set of tools. In the afternoon, he swam across the lake again and entered the cave network.

"Captain Il, Captain Theodore, it has been confirmed that the prey allies will participate in this joint military school mission." Stian took the report and handed it to the two people in front of him.

After reading the detailed information in the report, Il and Theodore raised their heads at the same time: "Let everyone prepare and set off on time in half an hour. There is no need to worry about the girl now. She should be The prey set a bait to delay us. The prey himself is indeed in the Borghese area. In addition, remember to pass the news to Adelaide.
