Chapter 29: Metamorphosis, Filling the Shortcomings

The "Astartes technology" of the 'cured meat · False Emperor' still requires the implantation of "gene seeds" and nineteen surgeries to achieve success. Meng Yi's "Longevity Gene series" developed not long ago cannot be achieved overnight.

Every time the genetic modification of the previous model is completed, the physical strength will be appropriately improved, and it will be more adapted to the subsequent extended technology, reducing the intense backlash brought about during the genetic modification process.

If you lack the paving of "Longevity · Type I" and skip the supplementation of "Longevity · Type II", and directly perform "Longevity · Type III · Virus Progenitor" modification, that is not strengthening, that is sending yourself to death in a fancy way.

How can a normal human physique withstand the torment of a 'virus hodgepodge'?

"I will drink the fierce poison, fill the shortcomings, and wait quietly for the withered fruit to fill the branches."

With a sigh, Meng Yi lay flat on the operating table that had held Wesker and Alex, connected himself to the external nutrient supplementation equipment, and calmly injected the "Longevity Gene · Type II · Uroboros" into his jugular vein.

He couldn't exempt the pain through anesthesia; Meng Yi needed to continuously activate "Psionics", perform micro-field interference, accelerate the fusion speed of "Longevity · Type II", and avoid possible problems during the process.

After all, his initial technology was far less stable than the "Astartes technology" of the Galactic Human Empire. Even a slight error in the genetic modification process could not be allowed, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Is it painful for all cells in the body to tear? Of course it is painful.

The twelfth-level pain in the medical field of human society is just a breeze that is not worth mentioning compared to Meng Yi now.

A sharp sword is sharpened from grinding, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold.

Once you get used to it, it doesn't matter; instead, it can become a whetstone for tempering your will.

Obtain power comfortably?

Dream on; where in the world is there such a beautiful thing?

With the paving of "Longevity Gene · Type I", the modification of "Longevity Gene · Type II" proceeded smoothly according to Meng Yi's expectations.

Once bitten, twice shy.

The "Longevity series" that perfectly fits Meng Yi's special constitution, the time required for "Type II" modification is far shorter than "Type I".

……

14 hours later, the modification surgery entered the late stage.

The limbs and bones were like opening mouths, greedily absorbing the nutrients input into the body, pushing Meng Yi's physique to leap towards a higher level.

15 hours, F+ grade physique strengthened to E- grade.

17 hours, E- grade physique strengthened to E grade.

20 hours, E grade physique strengthened to E+ grade, reaching the modification limit brought by "Longevity · Type II".

Cell telomeres were extending, and lifespan was extended from the original 200 years to 300 years.

The spread and pollution of virus-type abilities were improved...

Super-speed regeneration, super-speed movement (Mach 3), basic element resistance, underwater breathing, and other abilities were constantly constructed...

23 hours, the modification of "Longevity · Type II" ended, and the physique in the rapid metamorphosis state became stable.

Meng Yi opened his bloodshot eyes, raised his hand, and tore a black scab from his face.

Clean up personal hygiene? Adapt to the brand-new physique? Deliver a personal speech?

No need to waste time; anyway, there will be another wave later.

Getting up to replenish the nutrient substances that had consumed half of the life-sustaining container, Meng Yi took the "Longevity · Type III · Virus Progenitor" original strain, which was intertwined with black and red.

He drank the original virus strain in the petri dish and reconnected the pipeline for supplementing nutrients.

The body tissue under Meng Yi's skin was dissolving and recasting, as if countless ants were scurrying wildly in his body.

The intense pain far exceeding the "Type II" modification almost affected Meng Yi's micro-field interference with "Psionics".

Gritting his teeth to endure the pain?

Teeth, gums, and even the upper and lower jaws were dissolved; there was no such thing as 'gritting teeth'.

Bones melted, muscle fibers melted, internal organs melted, blood melted, fur tissue melted, eyeballs melted, brain melted...

Meng Yi turned into a black-red "cocoon".

The "Psionics" that fused the spirit was like a lonely lamp, stubbornly illuminating the way forward in the storm of 'pain'.

It was so difficult for Meng Yi to fuse the perfectly fitting "Longevity · Type III".

No wonder Alex, the 'protagonist' favored by the "miracle", also had to truly die once.

Operating "Psionics" to guide the "Metamorphosis Cocoon", the bottom extended dense black-red thread-like lines, extending to every corner of the sterile laboratory, plundering all visible resources to supply the metamorphosis.

The nutrient substances in the life-sustaining device were not enough at all. The thread-like veins turned into sharp knives, piercing the alloy outer layer of the giant nutrient storage tank, violently plundering the nutrients needed.

32 hours later, Meng Yi, whose spirit was stretched to the limit, noticed that the timing was about right.

"Boom boom boom —!!"

The strong and powerful heartbeat sounded from the "Metamorphosis Cocoon", shaking the various equipment in the sterile laboratory until they were crooked.

35 hours later, with the 'heart' as the core, the basic bone frame was recast.

38 hours later, the brain, internal organs, and other distorted internal organs were recast.

41 hours later, the blood vessel channels connecting various organs were recast.

44 hours later, muscle fibers, skin tissue, hair, etc., were all finished.

……

54 hours later, after ten hours of stabilization, the spirit and body were perfectly embedded and no longer separated from each other.

The body was rejuvenated by the injection of spirit, and the spirit became no longer swaying because of the carrying of the body.

E+ grade physical strength leaped to D++ grade.

Meng Yi in the "Metamorphosis Cocoon" could perform city demolition projects just by his physique. High-rise buildings were like toys piled up with foam materials in front of him, and he could smash them just by using his physical strength.

Short-term burst speed 5 times the speed of sound—this was the performance comparable to Firefly, the interstellar civilization cyborg + path walker, during the period of confronting the Red Light progenitor.

Every cell stored Meng Yi's consciousness, and the 'Great Divine Ability · Reconstruction from a Drop of Blood' in fantasy and immortal novels reappeared in him with "Cellular Immortality".

Human weaknesses such as the heart, brain, and throat no longer existed in Meng Yi.

Black Light Virus series memory reading, body weapon distortion, flying over walls, and other abilities were all woven.

The spread and pollution of virus-type abilities were further improved.

The "resistance" to high temperatures of hundreds of degrees, low temperatures of tens of degrees below zero, radiation pollution, highly toxic environments, and even surviving in a vacuum for a short time was born.

His current lifespan was extended from 300 years to 500 years, comparable to the so-called 'Immortal Cultivation System · Golden Core Ancestor'.

67 hours later, the dim black-red "Metamorphosis Cocoon" creaked, and the 'monster' bred inside began to break free from the cage.

"Rip —!"

An arm that was perfect and whiter than a woman's, yet with distinct muscle lines and full of explosive power, pierced through the outer shell of the "Metamorphosis Cocoon" from the inside.

The black-red silk threads spreading throughout the laboratory converged, bringing the fragments of the "Metamorphosis Cocoon" back to Meng Yi's feet, outlining a black-red, highly defensive garment on his body.

"Hoo —"

Meng Yi opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a turbid breath. The breath turned into a roaring gale, devastating the messy laboratory again. ===== CHAPTER 30 =====
