Chapter 257: Emily’s Self-Modification
Chapter 252 – Emily’s Self-Modification
Emily was different from the Tooth and the three of them brought by Owen, compared to the Tooth trio who had already mingled with the adventurers of Green Shade Town, Emily appeared to be a bit more withdrawn, and sometimes she could go for a day just fidgeting, and it was only later that Owen and Bryan realized the problem when they did a meticulous examination of her.
Endocrine disorder, this is where Emily’s problem lies.
Although magic is magical, able to make the physical body dead for hundreds of years of vitality, but at that time Emily suffered a serious injury, not in the state, can only focus on preserving the brain, so even by the T-virus reanimation of the cells, but also appeared a variety of problems.
The mechanical spine and the implanted biochemical instruments could only maintain her vitality, but could not allow her to gain the feelings of a normal person.
Human feelings were affected by the body’s endocrine system, and Emily’s current problem was that she wanted to be happy or sad, but her body wouldn’t let her.
Owen thought of a way to implant a crystal in her head that works like a spiritual head ring, and then linked to the biochemical apparatus in her body, in this way, the fluctuation of spiritual power generated with emotions will affect the concentration of hormones released by the biochemical apparatus in her body.
Sounds like a mechanical control, in fact, the master is still a human being, because normal human emotional fluctuations will indeed affect the body’s hormone secretion, Owen only to make this process controllable.
After the completion of the new round of transformation, Emily’s situation is indeed much better, coupled with the fact that Owen has opened part of the authority to her, the vast amount of knowledge in the Flame Queen’s database allows her to rediscover the meaning of life, to learn the knowledge, to transform the body, to create the soul, this is the goal that Emily has set for herself, especially the last, I’m afraid that God can’t create a soul out of thin air, and I don’t know where she got the confidence.
Next is the time for Owen to witness the miracle, to be honest, he underestimated the legendary mage too much, because the mage relies on never brute force.
As a Legendary Mage, although Emily now had no soul, her brain development was still far beyond normal, and she quickly reawakened her spiritual power, and it was not known whether it was due to the T-virus or the Legendary Mage’s underpinnings, but anyway, she regained the ability to cast spells.
Unfortunately, because of the lack of a soul, the strength of her spiritual power could never be raised, as if something was missing.
However, a true mage never relied on magic power, but knowledge, so even without a counterpart, the value that Emily was able to utilize was still above Brian’s, and in multiple fields.
The first thing Emily researched was the T-virus, she was very interested in this kind of virus that had a similar effect with the undead plague, plus the Flame Queen where there is perfect information, soon on the basis of the original took some success, which made Owen sigh in awe, other people with a lifetime of achievement is still not as good as the other side of the month, God how unfair.
If it is not Owen is now open with wisdom techniques, fear will also be inferior.
Emily according to their own situation modulation of special T-virus and hormone, enhanced cell activity and life expectancy, and will expand the direction of research to the field of cloning.
Emily’s current self is based on the original memories of the consciousness generated, minus the soul component, she is not very different from the artificial intelligence that generates the self, theoretically, she can completely realize the consciousness backup, and even clone countless self.
After Owen learned of this, he drew several cold breaths in succession to show his respect and opened this part of the information to her, because he also wanted to see what Emily could actually do.
Soon enough though, he had to interrupt Emily’s research for the time being to let her help with the underground ruins.
The underground ruins of wherever Green Shade Town was was nothing to Emily, she had explored at least double-digit numbers of similar ruins, and had even personally dismantled a magic well and participated in the construction of a mage tower, this was the benefit of coming from a mage family. With her help, Owen sort of solved the secret silver magic statue on the third floor of the ruins.
This was a good thing, if not for the fact that the technology had long been figured out, legendary mages would scratch their heads when they met it, especially in places with limited space.
But if it was figured out, it wasn’t really hard to solve it.
Of course, this is a prerequisite, the relics must be in disrepair, most of the defense mechanisms are damaged, similar to the Tower Spirit’s relic intelligence failure, otherwise the difficulty is increased by more than ten times.
After solving the secret silver demon statue guarding the door, Emily cracked the door of the magic well, and Owen was able to truly witness the long-famous magic well.
The magic well was like a wellhead made of crystal bricks, or a special engine nozzle, because at all times there was a thick magic like flames gushing out, and then under the constraints of the magic well, it turned into liquid and fell back down, and became the magic reserve in the well.
In terms of modeling, exquisite as a work of art, the seams are bonded with secret silver, there are fine gold lines, quite artistic value, but if you use a microscope to look at, you can see that no matter the secret silver fine gold or crystal bricks are densely engraved with countless witch text.
“It’s the Void Magic Well, the model, although old, is able to be used in a low magic or even no magic world, it’s not bad.” Emily recognized the model of the magic well and explained it to Owen.
Magic wells are divided into ordinary magic wells and void magic wells, ordinary magic wells use magic crystals and secret silver, important to build on the magic nodes, simple, convenient and quick, the cost is also low, but unfortunately the supply is affected by the magic nodes, just like the flood season and the dry season, in case the magic nodes are destroyed, the mage tower is considered to be ruined for the most part.
The void magic well will not have these problems, because it can communicate with the void, and directly extract the power of the void for transformation.
However, the conversion efficiency was very low, just like extracting trace elements from seawater.
Of course the void magic well was also able to connect to magic nodes, the same was true for the relic’s, but unfortunately the magic nodes here had entered a period of decline, the same as a water vein drying up, which was why the magic power provided by the relic was so small.
Emily simply performed some maintenance on the void magic well, next she needed to repair the magic transmission lines spread all over the relics, this was a big project, but she was happy with it, because only busyness could make her find the feeling of living.
In order to increase the efficiency of the work, Emily created four mechanical tentacles for herself, directly linked to the mechanical spine, transforming into an octopus female doctor.
Owen looked interesting, so he specially created a set of nano inner armor with external armor for her, wielding four mechanical tentacles, when the guarding boss are qualified.
Not to mention, with these equipments, Emily’s work efficiency increased greatly, especially after she connected with the Flame Queen through the implanted spirit crystal, there was a flying golem scanning, the Flame Queen’s data analyzing, and finally she repaired it, which was highly efficient.
It didn’t take long for the industrial area on the second floor of the ruins to complete the basic repairs, the factories and defense mechanisms still needed some time, but the supply of magic power was no longer a problem, Owen intended to transfer the heavy industry of the dungeon to a more open area, the dungeon only retained the high-precision production line.
