Chapter 1351: We Can’t Stay Here!

However, when he thought of Egbert's goal of "mechanical ascension", Witt's brows could not help but frown.

It's not that "mechanical ascension" is bad. For a dragon without talent, mechanizing itself may be a good way to become stronger.

However, let's not talk about this thing as part of dragon body alchemy. There is no mature technology. Everything needs to be deduced with the lives of other dragons. The material alone is a big problem.

Metenulos alloy is the most suitable material for "mechanical ascension". This is recognized by the continent. This alloy has not become rampant, which is also related to this matter.

Once the refining method of Metenulos alloy is announced, it may usher in the second dark age.

After all, if the material can keep up, then as long as the problem of dragon soul is solved, the flying dragon can also become a "giant dragon". Such a temptation is not something that all flying dragons can refuse.

Let's talk about Egbert again.

The other party definitely does not have Metenulos alloy. With his strength and ability, it is not enough to collect enough Metenulos alloy.

Then, the best alloy around the other party is the Egbert alloy he made.

But this alloy has been reproduced by Witt.

Witt is also quite familiar with the Egbert alloy. It is indeed hard, but it has poor magic conductivity and poor biological fusion.

Especially the latter!

The experimental subjects that Witt and his team are facing at this time have already explained this problem very well.

The Metenulos alloy endoskeleton is not fused with the biological skin outside to form a whole, but as a separate individual.

In simple terms, it is a layer of skin.

Once this layer of skin is damaged, it cannot be restored and can only be replaced.

And because the magic conductivity of the Metenulos alloy is relatively poor, the dragon crystal inside cannot supply energy to the skin and scales outside. This is the skin and scales that cannot be used as a defense layer at all, but just an appearance.

The ability to withstand external forces is also quite poor.

In addition, poor magic conductivity means that when using the Egbert alloy as a body, it is necessary to supplement it with fine gold as a magic circuit, otherwise, after being transformed into a mechanical body, the ability to use magic will be lost.

As for why these experimental subjects can use magic, it is because these experimental subjects are developing in the direction of alchemical puppets.

All the magic used is actually magic arrays in essence.

Egbert will definitely not transform himself in this way.

That is not "mechanical ascension", but making himself into a puppet with a limited upper limit.

In this case, it is worse than the current flesh and blood body.

If Witt were to do it himself in this situation, he would most likely use Egbert alloy as the skeleton and refined gold as the bone marrow, and directly abandon the outer layer of flesh and blood scales.

As for the inside...

Large-scale experiments, looking for ways to completely and intactly peel off the dragon soul from the dragon crystal, and looking for materials that can perfectly store the dragon soul.

Poor biological fusion means that the dragon crystal cannot be put into the mechanical body as a whole.

That is not a complete whole.

And incompleteness means that it is not a complete, successful, and real mechanical life form, which means that it does not have growth in a narrow sense.

As for the narrow and broad sense of growth, the former is to grow by absorbing free elements from the outside world, which is the commonality of creatures in the dragon world, while the latter is to change its own materials and other means to achieve the purpose of Saint level.

The difference here is huge. The former is a mechanical life, and the latter is a mechanical puppet. Obviously, the former is the ultimate pursuit of all dark alchemists who take the "mechanical ascension" route.

Of course, so far, as far as Witt knows, there is only one dragon in the entire dragon world that has reached this level, the world's first skull dragon, Os!

Witt has seen the other party, and now, after realizing it, the skull dragon's skeleton body is not an irreplaceable part of the other party.

If Os wants, the other party can completely change his body into an alloy.

However, in this world today, the only alloy that can make Os one step closer is the Metenulos alloy. Other alloys, including the Egbert alloy, are not as good as the other party's "broken" bones.

In other words, the most special thing about Os is the soul fire that is said to never go out.

And the soul fire of Os is the ultimate pursuit of most dark alchemists.

But unfortunately, no dark alchemist dared to attack that person, who was a high-ranking legend that had been active for more than 200,000 years.

Uh...

Witt raised his tail and knocked his head.

His thoughts were off track!

In short, under the series of actions of the Egbert alloy and the other party, Witt could think of the most reliable way to develop in the direction of "mechanical ascension".

The dark alchemist has existed for a long time, and no one knows whether the dark alchemist has researched any materials or technologies to preserve the dragon soul.

Well... the possibility of researching is not small.

After all, the dark alchemist is working towards this direction. Even if it can't be as good as Os, a low-profile version should exist.

Otherwise, is there any need for the dark alchemist to exist?

No matter how persistent they are, if there is no result, the dark alchemist will not continue to devote himself to this path.

They are not determined pioneers, but a group of guys who will do anything for their own selfish desires.

While Witt was thinking, the remaining eight experimental subjects on Skech's side also lost the ability to continue fighting under the attack of his abyss power.

No matter how hard the exoskeleton is, once the internal energy supply system is broken, the experimental subject will be useless.

Skech, who dealt with these experimental subjects, flew towards Witt with the "remains" of those experimental subjects with a solemn face.

"Something is not right!"

Before they even got close to the laboratory, they encountered nine experimental subjects with the combat power of the middle level of purple crystal...

This is no longer something that a lower-level purple crystal wind-thunder pterosaur can produce, even in Witt's evaluation, the other party's alchemy is pretty good.

But no matter how good the alchemy is, if the strength is not strong, it is destined that the other party's ability to obtain materials will not be too strong.

And the other party's alchemy is obviously not good enough to use limited materials to obtain a large amount of resources.

Skechers was just distracted by the power of the abyss, and couldn't focus on thinking, but that didn't mean he was stupid. If he was really stupid, he wouldn't be alive now.

Hearing this, Witt nodded.

"The situation is indeed not right. This is probably not just the laboratory of the Wind and Thunder Pterosaur. The metal on them is the Egbert alloy.

Only Egbert and I can prepare this alloy in large quantities.

Of course, the production of this alloy does not require very high technical content. The only troublesome thing is to determine the raw materials of the alloy. There must be dragons other than me who can do it, but...

That Wind and Thunder Pterosaur definitely can't do it!"

Having said this, Witt paused for a moment, and then said helplessly: "We can't stay here!"
