#645 - Chapter 645: Research on the Living Forbidden Spell
“What did you say?”
Hearing the scan results from the Decayed Life vessel, before Wu Wei could say anything, the troll Titus beside him spoke up first.
“That’s impossible!”
“The Desert Emperor (Living Forbidden Spell) could never be corrupted by so-called Chaos!”
“Because back then, he stood on the front lines against Chaos alongside the great Human Emperor.”
“How could such a great warrior be corrupted by mere Chaos?”
However, compared to Titus's anger, the Decayed Life vessel, with its more mechanical way of thinking, was calmer.
It heard the loopholes in Titus's words and refuted them one by one.
“Firstly, Titus, since the Desert Emperor you speak of was on the front lines fighting against Chaos, why couldn't he be corrupted by Chaos?”
“Secondly, if he really had contact with Chaos in the past, then his chances of being corrupted by Chaos would be higher than ordinary people!”
“And more importantly...”
The Decayed Life vessel extended a small tentacle into the body of the Living Forbidden Spell.
Then, with a stench in the air, the Decayed Life vessel retracted the small tentacle.
“I have no need to lie in front of the Lord.”
“What I said is the truth!”
At the tip of the small mechanical tentacle, a faint but real aura of Chaos appeared before Wu Wei and the troll Titus.
The appearance of this wisp of Chaos aura was enough to prove everything.
“Lord, if my scan is correct, then the Living Forbidden Spell was corrupted by Chaos just before death, or more precisely, at the moment of ascension!”
“During ascension? What evidence do you have?” Wu Wei asked.
Wu Wei did remember that Xue Jingsong had said that the reason the Living Forbidden Spell became what it is now was because of a failed ascension.
But now that the Decayed Life vessel had presented a new point of view, Wu Wei naturally wanted to understand it.
“Yes.”
The Decayed Life vessel first absorbed the wisp of Chaos aura, then directly extended a somewhat special flesh and machine hybrid tentacle, plunging it deep into the head of the Living Forbidden Spell.
Although this behavior of the Decayed Life vessel clearly angered the Living Forbidden Spell.
However, because Wu Wei held the other party's heart in his hand, the Living Forbidden Spell merely roared and then calmed down.
Shriek!
With a grating sound, the Decayed Life vessel successfully extracted a still-beating “magic rune” from the Living Forbidden Spell's skull.
“If I'm not mistaken, Lord, the ascension ceremony this guy performed should be some kind of ascension ceremony that attempts to use magical energy to reconstruct his body.”
“Leaving aside whether this method of ascension can succeed, you only need to look at this rune now.”
“Look...”
“Ordinary magic runes, in terms of color, are relatively pure.”
“But the runes in this guy's body are not pure.”
Sure enough, the color of the rune that the Decayed Life vessel took out was not pure enough.
Even with the naked eye, Wu Wei could see that there was a small amount of gray matter flowing within the rune that the other party had taken out.
Although small, it did exist.
Just like the wisp of Chaos aura that the Decayed Life vessel had taken out before.
“These gray substances are the materialized symbols of the Chaos aura; you can call them Chaos matter.”
“Although I don't know how this guy managed to integrate the Chaos aura into the rune, the appearance of these Chaos auras is enough to prove my theory.”
“That is, this being called the Living Forbidden Spell did indeed encounter corruption from Chaos during ascension.”
Hearing what the Decayed Life vessel said, Wu Wei frowned.
“Wait, if it really was corrupted by Chaos, then why didn't I sense any Chaos aura during my previous battle with it?”
“Not even a trace!”
The reason Wu Wei said this was because when the Living Forbidden Spell unleashed its power, wiping out Wu Wei's army in units of ten thousand, Wu Wei did not detect any Chaos aura being triggered when it cast its spells.
If the other party was deliberately hiding it, then Wu Wei could understand.
But now the Decayed Life vessel had said that there was Chaos aura hidden within the runes in its body.
So in this case, no matter what the Living Forbidden Spell did, it couldn't escape Wu Wei's senses.
“I don't know, Lord.”
The Decayed Life vessel's main unit shook its head in a very human-like manner.
“Although I used to be a member of the Chaos faction, I still don't understand the principle behind how it can do this.”
“But...”
The Decayed Life vessel's mechanical tentacles continuously took out one rune after another from the Living Forbidden Spell's body, and then said.
“Lord, if you are willing.”
“Give me some time to analyze the Living Forbidden Spell, and maybe I can figure out this secret.”
“After all, the technology used by this guy called the Living Forbidden Spell is relatively backward.”
“The difficulty in figuring out this problem should not be high.”
“If I finish analyzing it, I can even recreate a set of magical energy technology that it used during its ascension!”
“At that time, with some improvements to these magical energy technologies, you can use them to create magical energy warriors that are unique to you!”
“These magical energy warriors will have many characteristics similar to the Living Forbidden Spell, and their combat power will definitely not be weak.”
To please Wu Wei, this Abyss Lord, the Decayed Life vessel could be said to have gone to the extreme.
“Okay.”
Since the Decayed Life vessel had said so, Wu Wei naturally had no need to disagree.
After all, the Living Forbidden Spell could not escape, and instead of letting it become the food of the Devourer Nors, it was better to extract more benefits and intelligence before it became food.
“How long do you need?”
The Decayed Life vessel retracted all of its tentacles and, after a brief calculation, gave a result.
“If it's just analysis, Lord, I will probably need about thirty days.”
“But if it's analysis plus reverse engineering, I may need about forty days.”
“At most forty days?” Wu Wei frowned.
This was much longer than he had imagined.
“Okay!”
“Then let's do that.”
After speaking, Wu Wei left the Decayed Life vessel's area and returned to the Abyss Throne.
But the troll Titus, who was following behind Wu Wei, glanced at the “Chaos monster” sealed in the coffin with a hint of sadness before leaving.
“What exactly happened back then?”
