Chapter 145: Powerful Transformation Ability

At this moment, under the effect of Divine Fusion, some even more marvelous changes were quietly occurring on the Steel Dragon.

Its bones, which already radiated a lustrous metallic sheen, now seemed as if they had been infused with divine power, subsequently emitting a trace of golden radiance.

The metallic-textured scales covering its body also became more exquisite and resilient in texture; set against the pale golden light, it was as if every single scale possessed a unique spirituality.

And that pair of imposing wings, whose edges were already incomparably sharp, were now wreathed in a faint halo of light.

This halo made the wings look more like those of an angel, and added a touch of sacred, inviolable aura.

……

At this moment, the Steel Dragon had already completed a qualitative transformation by virtue of Divine Fusion, and its various brand-new attributes and functions were astonishingly powerful.

However, compared to Li Er, the Steel Dragon was still somewhat weaker.

After all, what Li Er had installed inside her body was a higher-quality Chen-grade Spirit Energy Core.

This Spirit Energy Core was two grades higher than the one inside the Steel Dragon.

To be precise, the fact that the Steel Dragon could have such a reborn transformation was entirely thanks to Li Er.

It is worth mentioning that this Moon Grade Spirit Energy Core was also repaired using Li Er's Spirit Energy Power.

This was equivalent to saying that Li Er was its creator.

Therefore, the Steel Dragon had absolute loyalty toward Li Er.

Although the Steel Dragon was created by Psionicists and was not a true Dragon in the real sense, it possessed powerful abilities not inferior to a true Dragon.

For those unruly and untamable true Dragons, these mechanical dragons they created were easier to manipulate, and could become the most loyal partners under their command almost without needing to be tamed.

At this time, the Steel Dragon stood up from the ground; it first stretched that pair of magnificent wings, flapping them lightly as if it were loosening its muscles and bones.

Subsequently, it slowly lowered its head, bringing its massive skull closer to Li Er's direction; those eyes, deep and spiritual like the stars, were full of affection and obedience.

Following that, it even used its lower jaw to gently nuzzle Li Er's body, its movements very soft.

Looking at the Steel Dragon that was so affectionate toward her, Li Er revealed a gratified smile on her face; she reached out her hand and gently stroked the Steel Dragon's scales, which were hard yet radiated a trace of warmth.

She was heard saying with a smile: "Since you revere me as your mother, and this person before us is my father, you shall call him Grandfather from now on."

The Steel Dragon seemed to understand Li Er's words; it nuzzled her hand again and let out another roar in response, looking just like an obedient and loyal pet.

Immediately after, a look of respect seemed to appear in the Steel Dragon's eyes, and it lowered its massive head once more toward Zhou Chu.

The corners of Zhou Chu's mouth could not help but twitch a few times.

Being a grandfather to a mechanical dragon sounded truly somewhat bizarre.

Having just gotten used to Li Er calling him Father not long ago, to suddenly go up a generation was truly a bit sudden.

Fortunately, this Steel Dragon did not seem to be able to speak, and unlike Li Er who kept "Father" on her lips all day, Zhou Chu felt it was fine.

"Li Er, such a big guy, how are we supposed to keep it with us... wouldn't it be too eye-catching..."

Zhou Chu scratched his head, his expression troubled.

He had once tried to store this Steel Dragon into the Emperor Tomb.

But because it was not his contracted servant, the retrieval failed.

Li Er was lost in thought, muttering to herself: "Oh right, a Moon Grade core doesn't have the ability to transform..."

Very quickly, a flash of light appeared in Li Er's eyes; she snapped her fingers loudly and pointed at the tens-of-meters-long Steel Dragon before her, speaking with conviction: "Shrink!"

Swoosh!

One could see the Steel Dragon's imposing body shrink by a circle, visible to the naked eye.

Zhou Chu's eyeballs nearly flew out.

This works too?

Doesn't this make it Sun Wukong's seventy-two transformations?

As Li Er kept pointing at the Steel Dragon and shouting "Shrink."

The Steel Dragon kept shrinking.

Finally, it became the size of a small cat.

At this time, the Steel Dragon looked more like a collectible figure.

The Steel Dragon looked at itself with a bewildered expression.

It was a bit dazed and cute, and also a bit adorable.

Li Er crossed her arms, puffed out her cheeks, and looked at the shrunken Steel Dragon, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, the Steel Dragon kicked off the ground with its feet and flapped its wings to fly onto the top of Li Er's head.

"Wuwah, wuwah!"

Standing on top of Li Er's head, the Steel Dragon spread its two pairs of small wings and let out a long howl toward the sky, yet it emitted two cries like those of an infant.

Li Er's eyes brightened once again, and she gently patted the head of the giant steel Dragon.

Then, the form of the giant steel Dragon changed once more.

It had now transformed into a Dragon-shaped headband on Li Er's head, making her look even more playful and cute.

Possessing a Constellation Grade core, Li Er subsequently gained the ability to transform other objects.

A giant Dragon dozens of meters in size had actually been turned by her into a tiny headband on her head.

Zhou Chu had finally witnessed just how powerful a true Spirit Energy master could be.

Gazing at the mist gradually dispersing in the sky, it gave one the feeling of parting the clouds to see the dawn.

This Nightmare Copy could also be considered successfully cleared.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side, the small team led by Shigu Sun had finally managed to raise their Copy progress to 10%.

At this very moment, the five of them were almost driven to the brink of an emotional breakdown.

Taking advantage of a break, the five of them couldn't help but let their thoughts wander, beginning to question the meaning of life.

Just then, above the entire Steel Wasteland, the mist that had previously permeated the air suddenly began to dissipate.

This left the five, who already had little will to fight, feeling incredibly bewildered.

As a light breeze blew past, the mist vanished in an instant, and the entire Steel Wasteland became unusually tranquil.

It was as if nothing had ever happened.

The five stood blankly in place, staring at this sudden change, feeling somewhat at a loss for what to do.

The next moment, the scene before their eyes flashed, and the five were surprised to discover that they had already appeared outside the Copy.

Along with the five, all the other students who had entered the Copy for the initial exploration were also teleported out.

Every person's face wore an expression of not knowing what had happened.

Xing Wanying and the teachers from various departments looked at the results on the screen, all of them widening their eyes and simultaneously gasping in cold air, exclaiming almost in unison: "Hiss~ it's already cleared?"
