Chapter 7 Monster

The melting was completed in an instant, and a brand new creature appeared in the central experimental area smoothly.

"Looks good!" Harbaugh gave this thing his first review.

This newly synthesized creature is generally like a crocodile. It has a large head, a short and thick neck, a very strong body, and a not too long tail, but there is a barbed bone tumor at the tip, which looks very powerful. His four legs are not too long compared to his body, and I don't think his speed should be too fast. After all, the pre-synthetic dragons and armored beasts are not creatures that can run. However, this guy seems to have inherited a lot from the armored beast. His back is completely covered by huge pieces of plate armor. Its thickness is very exaggerated, and it is obvious that it is very defensive at a glance. Judging from the claws, this thing should have a habit of attacking with claws, because its claws are large and sharp. As for his mouth, that thing can swallow an elephant alive, and with those teeth, I have no doubt that he can chew rocks into powder like broad beans.

Overall, this thing seems to have strong practicality. He is strong enough, very powerful, has high defense, and has no problem with offensive capabilities. He should be a good combat creature.

Just when we were all very satisfied with the appearance of this thing, a young mage assistant suddenly whispered something. "Why doesn't this thing have eyes?"

"Huh? No eyes?"

Suddenly our attention moved to the head of this thing. There are many crystal monitors installed at different angles in the experimental area. We can observe experimental organisms from different angles in the operating room. Although this monster's body is nearly 40 meters long, we looked around its triangular head with huge bony protrusions and couldn't find any organs that might be eyes.

"Impossible! How can he have no eyes?" Harbaugh almost jumped up. It’s not easy to create such a perfect creature, but it doesn’t even have eyes. Although a creature without sight is not necessarily useless, it will definitely suffer a lot. If this guy had no eyes, that would be a huge flaw!

After searching for a long time without belief, we finally had to confirm that this thing indeed had no eyes, and it didn’t even have ears or eyes. We have finally found the nostrils. And there are actually six nostrils, all on his head, under the wing-like bony protrusions on his head, and they are well protected.

We are looking for the guy's eyes here, but the guy is wandering around in the experimental area by himself. He seemed to be strange about the space he was in. He turned around a few times, then walked to the wall and stood there for a while before turning back to the middle area.

After finally confirming that this guy did indeed have no eyes, we began to try to test whether he could move normally without eyes. Old rules. We first put a few herbivores in to see if this guy is an aggressive creature.

A crack opened on the ground in the experimental area, and a war elephant was lifted up. The war elephant is a herbivore with offensive capabilities. It is about five meters tall, but its length is only over eight meters, which is not as big as this synthetic creature. We were afraid that the prey would be too small to move, so we sent a big guy in.

We were excited about this guy's reaction because he reacted immediately as soon as the ground opened up. This guy suddenly retreated to the other side of the experimental area and around the corner. Then he turned his head this way, obviously noticing the cracks that opened on the ground. Regardless of whether he relies on sound or vibration, he can respond to changes around him, which shows that he still has hope.

The war elephant was also very nervous after being brought up. It faced the synthetic creature. Keep moving back. However, our synthetic creature only paused for a few seconds before suddenly opening its big mouth and letting out a loud roar. The sound was so shocking that the war elephant's legs softened and he knelt on the ground. After roaring, the synthetic creature immediately roared and rushed forward. With just one bite, half of the war elephant was lost.

A mage who participated in the experiment shouted excitedly: "It seems that the attack is very strong. And the bite force is amazing!"

Another mage said regretfully: "I should have put a pressure rod in the body of that war elephant just now, so that I could measure his bite force!"

Habo said: "If you can bite off all the bones of a war elephant, this guy's bite force will not be less than fifteen tons."

I said in surprise: "Fifteen tons? The bite force of an adult dragon is only about 17 tons!"

"This guy has a bigger head, so it's normal for his bite to be stronger."

A mage asked: "Should we put some combat creatures into it to test this guy's combat effectiveness?"

The other mages immediately started discussing.

"This guy is so big, why should we go in there and fight him?"

"How about using a war beast?"

"The war beast has the melee fighting ability of a giant dragon. It won't kill this synthetic creature, right?"

"The worst case scenario is to make another one, test it first and then talk about it!"

Harbo slapped the table and said: "Just use the giant war beast. I can't bear to let the child catch the wolf. We must test his ultimate strength."

With Harbaugh's approval, the war beast was soon sent to the experimental area. The synthetic beast was chewing on the corpse of the war elephant. Suddenly, he found a door opened behind him. He immediately turned around, with half of the corpse still in his mouth. This guy is really violent.

Although the war beasts have the physical combat power of giant dragons, they are actually quite docile herbivores. The war beasts on the battlefield are all familiars with owners, or have been specially trained. Otherwise they wouldn't fight with others. But now there is an obvious threat in front of him, although the war beast is docile. The defensive instinct still has its place. He immediately stared at the synthetic creatures here.

This synthetic creature is smaller in size than the war beast. His body length is only less than forty meters, but this giant war beast is fifty-seven meters long. Moreover, the war beast is a mammal, and its length does not include its tail, so the war beast is actually much larger than this synthetic creature.

The two giant creatures locked their target tightly, completely motionless, like two statues. Just when we thought they didn't dare to move because of the opponent's strength, our synthetic creatures actually launched the attack first. As expected, this guy inherited the brutal personality of the armored beast. With a flick of his head, he threw half of the war elephant corpse aside, and his whole body quickly jumped towards the giant war beast. This guy's short legs are very explosive and his starting speed is amazing. If the war beast on the opposite side hadn't been on alert, it would have been unable to react.

The giant war beast lowered his head, and the synthetic beast bit him on his T-shaped horn. Then, the war beast shook its head, and the synthetic beast was thrown directly, hitting the wall with a bang and sliding down. I looked at Harbaugh in surprise. "Has this war beast been on the battlefield?"

Habo shook his head: "I don't know. The person in charge you sent found it for me. I don't know his origin. But from the looks of it, he often fights. He has actually learned to use various combat techniques. ! But this is better and can better test the power of our synthetic beast."

In the experimental area, the war beast threw the synthetic beast out and immediately rushed forward. It seemed that it was going to smash the synthetic beast against the wall. The synthetic beast reacted quickly and stepped back. The war beast hit the wall with a bang, shaking him so much that he almost sat on the ground. The synthetic beast got rid of the attack and then rushed forward again, biting the side of the war beast's belly. Those of us watching the experiment shook our heads together. This synthetic beast is shown to have no fighting skills. Large carnivores know that when attacking an enemy, they should look for the lower part of the neck. This guy bites whatever he catches.

There is a layer of white fur on the outside of the body of the war beast, and its defensive power is not much worse than that of dragon skin, so it is said that they have the physical combat power of a giant dragon. But this synthetic beast's mouth is too powerful, and one bite will make him tear off a large piece of meat. The giant war beast roared and turned around, jumping up. Then he pressed down on the synthetic beast. He desperately tried to bite the synthetic beast with his claws and teeth, but in the end he only pulled out sparks from the synthetic beast's body. This guy's defense is really abnormal. Even the giant dragon can't withstand the bite of the giant war beast, and he is actually unscathed.

The synthetic beast rolled on the spot. He flipped the war beast down, then turned around, and the huge tail swept across. We all heard the sound of muscles being torn from above. The giant war beast was hit by the bone tumor on the tail of the synthetic beast and flew away and fell into the corner. However, he did not catch up and unfold the continuous tools. Instead, he arched his back on the spot.

"What is he going to do?" I instinctively realized that something was wrong.

Before we could react, the four plates in the middle of the synthetic beast's back suddenly bounced against each other, and a structure wrapped in muscles stretched out. There is a crystal channel in the middle of this thing, and there are two honeycomb-like structures on both sides. I saw that after the thing rose, many purple light spots suddenly appeared around it and gathered towards the crystal channel.

"It's the magic crystal cannon! He's about to fire!" Habo shouted in panic: "Open the protective shield quickly!"

A protective shield instantly rose up in the experimental area to protect the wall. Almost at the same time, a purple light bomb was fired from the synthetic beast launcher. There was a loud bang, and the entire experimental area shook. We were all knocked off our seats and fell to the ground. Research materials and various drawing tools rolled all over the floor. The experimental area was filled with orders, nothing could be seen, and a huge shock wave shook the entire island.

The vibration lasted for more than ten seconds before quieting down. There were pink clouds and mist everywhere in the experimental area. We started the air extraction device and it took a while to make the air inside clear again. I saw that the things on the synthetic beast's back had been put back. And all that was left of the giant war beast was the rotten dregs on the ground. Just now I was just thinking about this guy's combat characteristics. I forgot that a magic crystal cannon and two rocket launchers were also synthesized. It seems that the thing on his back is the integration of these three pieces of equipment, and the one in the middle has been confirmed to be the magic crystal cannon. And the honeycomb-like structures on the east and west sides might be rocket launchers.

Harbaugh said while picking up documents on the ground: "It seems that this thing is not only not useless, but also very powerful! It is very offensive and defensive, and its combat awareness is a little bit poor, but it can be trained. In the end The important thing is that although he has no vision, it doesn't seem to affect his movements."

Another mage said: "Maybe it's just because he felt the vibration. The two experiments just now were too big. If they were small creatures, he might not react."

I have to say that what this mage said makes sense. We made a quick decision to put a few more small creatures in for testing. For the sake of efficiency, we decided to put a rabbit in it. Rabbits are dishonest and very agile. If this guy can accurately capture the rabbit's movements. That means he has enough perception to handle most situations.

The rabbit was quickly sent to the experimental area, but soon our hearts hit rock bottom. The rabbit just looked at the synthetic beast for a few times before abandoning him at all and jumping around the room. The synthetic beast, as if it didn't know anything, walked to the side and 'licked' the blood and rotten meat all over the floor.

"Can't find it?" I asked in surprise.

Harbaugh shook his head: "Not necessarily. Maybe he discovered it but was too lazy to take care of it."

"How can we prove it?"

Habo thought for a moment, then activated some magic circles and spoke while operating them. "Thank you for your investment. This equipment is very well built. It has a super protective layer and a perfect delivery system. In addition... there is an automatic cleaning machine." Following Habo's words. Water suddenly started spraying from the top of the experimental area, and several drainage outlets opened at the bottom of the experimental area. The corpses of the war elephant and war beast were blown to pieces, and all the meat residue was washed away by the water and flowed into the cave. The room was quickly cleaned very clean, and then the water stopped. Several fans sent the air heated by the flame magic array into the room, and even the moisture on the ground was dried. The experimental area was quickly re-sealed.

Without something to eat, the synthetic beasts would have nothing to distract themselves from. What Harbo meant was to let the synthetic beast show whether he really couldn't find the rabbit. Harbaugh's approach was effective. This guy obviously didn't have enough to eat, as there was meat all over the floor. So he wasn't interested in the earth rabbit that didn't have his teeth yet, but now the meat was gone. When he was hungry, he couldn't care less about the amount of meat. He immediately turned around to face the rabbit and quickly crawled over.

After all, the rabbit was too small for him, and the little thing jumped all over the floor. It took a lot of effort for the synthetic beast to catch him. However, this process just shows that the synthetic beast can accurately locate the rabbit's position, and the accuracy is quite high. It seems that having no eyes has no effect on him at all.

This expensive experimental machine was indeed well-equipped. After confirming that the synthetic beast had the ability to sense, we conducted several tests in succession. First, a projector was used to create an optical projection in the room, but the result was that the synthetic beast did not respond at all. This experiment proved that he indeed had no vision. After that, several more magic arrays were activated on the roof. As a result, the synthetic beast responded quickly. This experiment proved that he had a strong reaction to magic fluctuations, and he could even detect the magic fluctuations of extreme smiles.

In the third test, we used a thin string to hang a small ball and move it in the test area. As a result, the guy responded quickly. According to the signals captured by the instrument, this guy has the ability to locate using ultrasonic waves, just like bats. Moreover, the huge floor armor on his back is actually a vibration sensor. Because of its huge area, it is particularly sensitive. In addition, these plates actually replaced the function of ears, even though he had no ears or eyes. These plates are more sensitive than ears.

After testing continuously for an afternoon, we finally got all the data on this guy. He is very powerful. When we released him for experiments, even a dragon could not control him due to luck. Plague had to come to help. Moreover, as soon as he came out of the experimental area, he actually planned to use the magic light cannon to attack Lucky, which I had summoned long ago, but he was stopped. Lucky had a high intelligence and went up to him and pressed the launcher back into his body, making him unable to launch. The intelligence of this synthetic beast is basically at the level of a beast. At most, it is the intelligence level of an ordinary Warcraft. We tested his defense, and it turned out to be stronger than the giant dragon. Dragon claws and fangs can barely hurt him. However, we found that the plate armor was only fully covering the tail and head. His body only has plate armor on his back, and there are scales on his belly. Although the defense is not low, it is less than half that of plate armor, which can be said to be a huge weakness.

As we expected, his running speed is not very fast, and his endurance is not very good, but his explosive power is very fast. He is very fast within a thousand meters, and he immediately slows down after leaving this range. In addition, in addition to ultrasonic and hearing abilities, he also seems to be very sensitive to heat. As long as the temperature exceeds 20 degrees, he will have an obvious reaction, especially things that have temperature and can move. As soon as you spot him, you will want to pounce on him and attack. This guy's prey drive is very strong. Even if he's not hungry, he can't help but be impulsive and will involuntarily attack anything that feels like food.

After our analysis, it is probably impossible to popularize this thing in guilds. At most, it will be given to powerful players to use as magic pets. His aggressiveness is too strong, and if he is not properly controlled by ordinary players, he will get into trouble. Being too strong is also very troublesome! Especially such a powerful yet completely brainless creature.

This big guy was finally temporarily anesthetized and sent to Essinger for Hongyue and the others to deal with, while Habo and the others went to do the next experiment. It's getting dark now, but I don't have to sleep anyway. Harbaugh and the others are also in high spirits and have no intention of stopping. There is still a lot of time before the next guild competition, enough for us to create another synthetic creature.

I pulled Habo and said, "Have you ever used humans in your previous experiments?"

"You mean human synthesis?" Habo looked at me in surprise.

I explained: "This is what I just thought of. Like this thing just now, his body has actually surpassed the giant dragon. But if it really comes to a fight, one giant dragon can take down more than a dozen of these things. What's the problem?"

"Intelligence." Harbaugh was indeed engaged in research, and he immediately thought of it. The attack and defense of this synthetic beast just now is higher than that of the giant dragon. Although its agility is a little lower, it has super weapons, so it can be even. With a perfect attack system, he should actually be more powerful than the giant dragon. right. But just because he has no brains, many of his fighting methods are inappropriate, and so is the weapon on his back. Just now, Lucky actually forced his weapon back when he wanted to use it. This is the best proof. Lucky defeated him completely with his brain. In fact, as long as his super weapon is deployed, Lucky can't defeat him at all. It is a pity that such a good combat creature has its power reduced due to poor brains.

A mage said: "It's not that we haven't thought about using people for experiments. We are not the kind of hypocritical people, and we don't think there is any moral problem with using prisoners for experiments. But we have always been worried, that is, if something happens What should we do if the prisoners still have the memories of their lives after being synthesized and resist us?"

"Have you ever considered using volunteers?"

"Even if there are volunteers, there won't be too many. And if a product cannot be mass-produced, no matter how good it is, it will be in vain." Harbaugh said.

I nodded: "Indeed. But why do we use volunteers to mass-produce synthetic organisms?"

"Then what do you mean?"

"Volunteers are only used to test whether the synthesis is successful. If the synthesis result is perfect, then others will take the initiative to accept the transformation. By then, it will be a proven and reliable technology, not an experiment, and those who accept the transformation will be the beneficiaries of the technology. , of course no one will object. What everyone is really worried about is the risk of synthesis failure, so volunteers are needed at this time."

My concept of volunteers confused these people. They had never thought of such a use before. But Harbaugh soon came to his senses. "According to what you said, there must be emphasis when synthesizing, and you can't just piece it together haphazardly, right?"

"Of course. Your current synthesis method is completely luck-based. It is completely unclear which part of each synthetic product will be used. This is not acceptable. It must be ensured that the human brain becomes the brain of the synthesized creature during synthesis, and it must be connected The memories should be transplanted together, so there can be no problems. In terms of appearance, it is best not to change the human appearance. If not, at least make sure it looks beautiful. It must not turn into a disgusting monster, otherwise no one will be willing to do it even if it is powerful after being synthesized. using this technology."
