Chapter 77 Last Instance Decisions
Ryuk's body was anything but normal.
It was an abnormal component, a combination of technology and Nanobody.@@@@
But it wasn't just any Nanobody—it was a Nanobody capable of instant regeneration and one that could cause the growth of true flesh over itself.
Ryuk's heart sped up this growth as the Nanobody created veins, tissues, and blood that coursed through Ryuk's body, its source none other than his beating heart.
If a shallow cut was made on Ryuk, blood would pour out, making anyone believe he was made of flesh.
However, if one completely severed a body part, they would see the machine part underneath, leaving them stunned and in disbelief.
Ryuk didn't think his body was anything special—or at least, that was until he saw its inhuman regeneration and, ultimately, its ability to absorb an energy known as Source Energy from the rejuvenating pool.
Ever since then, Ryuk had been fascinated with his own body. Just what were its further capabilities? Explore hidden tales at empire
Right now, however, he could see a message from the system flashing with a red light.
[Possible Evolution State Is Being Accessed!]
[Host Must Prepare!]
Though shocking, Ryuk did one last thing before the evolution began, and in the next instant, a python appeared in the Apex Pool.
Of course, it was none other than Isha.
Ryuk had been able to sense that the pool was no ordinary rejuvenating bath. Somehow, the Source Energy present should also be available to the Fallen Geniuses, even if it didn't increase their strength right away like it did for Ryuk.
It should be able to store in their body and increase their future potential and talent.
This pool, in a sense, was a talent-enhancing pool.
Now it made more sense why the man had said for some geniuses, it would be more than just a simple rejuvenating pool.
An interesting idea occurred to Ryuk once he entered the pool and sensed the abundant Source Energy.
Previously, the Source Energy from the rejuvenation bath had only entered him through his mouth and pores.
But this time, his own Nanobody cast away his flesh and instead opened up specialized holes in its parts, directly suctioning the Apex Pool.
The more liquid from the Apex Pool that entered Ryuk's body, the more dark, oil-like liquid was flushed out.
After an hour of the oil seeping out, it stopped, and then his Nanobody itself began breaking apart.
Ryuk's humanoid shape never changed, but he could feel plates of technological material forming onto him. Tiny pieces of Nanobody components rearranged themselves endlessly.
Slowly, Ryuk's hand and limbs began lengthening, his Nanomusculature gaining a rounded, enhanced shape and perfectly replicating a humanoid body.
Accompanying Ryuk, however, wasn't marvel or awe—but pain. It was like being sliced into a thousand pieces and having ants walk over a person's naked bones while alive.
Somehow, he wanted to scratch and rip apart his own body, but he couldn't move a single muscle.
The control of his Nanobody had been hijacked.
The feeling of owning a body at all had completely disappeared, replaced with helplessness and grinding teeth, with his eyes bulging and stinging, veins writhing in red like worms benetah them.
Red notifications flashed at the corner of Ryuk's gaze, but the pain wouldn't let him look down and read them.
The text on the notifications was changing so fast that even if he wasn't in agony, he wouldn't grasp it.
Strange, weird codes and the word [ERROR! ERROR!] were the most prominent things Ryuk could see.
Even though he had no idea what his own Nanobody was doing, one thing Ryuk felt through his entire state was that something was changing.
It was creation.
The creation of a new form of body.
'So this is... evolution?' Ryuk wondered, another set of notifications flashing before his gaze.
But he was unable to see them.
Eventually, his consciousness darkened, and he saw nothing more.
