Chapter 1165: Chapter 915 Complicated Apparatus
Long Yi nodded and turned back, saying, "Take a look at that dragon for me later. Since I woke up, those dragons have disappeared, and I wanted to get some Dragon Power from them."
At this moment, Elma had realized that this Ascender was not just for show, his understanding of dragons must be at least decent.
Hayden’s forehead Crystal Stone emitted a red light, enveloping the Black Crystal Mage who had lost its Dragon Scale armor. Without the support of the Dragon Scale armor, the so-called Black Crystal Mage was just an ordinary Crazy Demon, but its body was filled with Dragon Power, which it had obtained from the Dragon Scale armor.
Long Yi raised his hand, extracting all the Dragon Power, turning the Crazy Demon into a pure Crazy Demon.
This series of actions was done without the slightest hesitation, seamlessly executed, which made Elma increasingly confident in the Ascender’s strength.
Then Long Yi placed his hand on the Crazy Demon’s chest, and as Mana vibrated slightly for a moment, the body of the Crazy Demon collapsed instantly, leaving the Crystal Core in his hand.
"To achieve the goal, one Crystal Core is enough. There is really no need for such complicated things," Long Yi said.
In Long Yi’s hands, the Crystal Core began to transform, slowly turning into liquid. When it came to understanding Crystal Cores, Long Yi dared to say he was absolutely above anyone in the entire Ancient Mage Tower. Long Yi had already obtained enough knowledge from the Crystal Demon Empress Belle, knowledge that Elma would struggle to comprehend until his dying day.
The liquid Crystal Core continuously changed shape, gradually forming a series of spiral structures.
"This should be about right," Long Yi nodded and commented.
"Please, what are you doing?" asked Elma, puzzled.
"Even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand at all. You just need to know that this is technology far beyond your comprehension," Long Yi said in an ostentatious manner.
As the master of the Ancient Mage Tower, when had Elma ever been spoken to in such a way? But clearly, the Ascender in front of him did not care about his status as the little master of the Ancient Mage Tower, because his power was just too great.
Long Yi, holding the spiral structure, placed it into a device. Then, instead of directly starting the device, he began to disassemble it and modify it on the spot. To every scientist present, this was utterly unthinkable, but he handled it as if it was completely normal, quickly tearing the device and other experimental equipment around into bits. As he dismantled them, he continued to lament how poorly designed and simplistic these devices were and how foolish their original designers and makers must have been. The scientists around him looked on with faces grim, if these words had come from Elma, they would have had no response. But how could they tolerate such comments coming from an outsider who had appeared out of nowhere?
If it weren’t for Elma standing right beside them, they would surely have erupted in anger. Before coming here, Elma had not forewarned them about the Ascender, and these scientists entrenched in research had no idea how powerful this cocky youth with a fragment of Cosmic Stone on his forehead was. They only knew he was deeply irritating, and that irritation was significant.
The disassembled parts were neatly categorized, and Long Yi began reassembling them. In the blink of an eye, he had combined the two devices into one single device!
"Alright, let’s give this a try," Long Yi said, and directly activated the large device. Mana flowed, a faint Resonance emitted from within the device, followed by a beam of light shooting out. Upon closer inspection, the beam was actually composed of countless Runes!
"The efficiency is lower than I expected, but it will do," Long Yi shook his head as he let the device continue to operate, then went off to look at a second device.
As soon as the first device was activated, the surrounding scientists were astounded. They had not expected that the device Long Yi had disassembled and reassembled could still function normally! What was the principle behind it? And what exactly was this new device used for? A group of scientists could not help but gather closer to take a better look.
"You can look, but don’t touch anything. Otherwise, if you die..."
Long Yi had not even finished speaking when a reckless scientist already reached out his hand. Suddenly, there was a loud boom, and that scientist completely disappeared in a burst of light particles.
"See, what did I tell you," Long Yi shook his head and continued with his work.
The sudden turn of events terrified everyone, but the group of scientists did not back away. Instead, they stood at a relatively safe distance and continued to watch. Long Yi ignored them; watch if you like, since you won’t understand anyway.
Now even Elma was feeling curious. You say you’re an Ascender, a relic of ancient black technology. But where do you get the knowledge to immediately disassemble machines and assemble them? Or do these devices seem as simple as children’s toys to you?
The fact was not so. The sole reason Long Yi could disassemble and assemble so quickly was his familiarity with these devices. Long Yi and Ai Lin had spent a significant amount of time here, particularly familiar with the magic research institution, and some devices had even been improved by Long Yi’s own hands. It was for this reason that Long Yi dared to undertake such a task. And the only function of that machine which Long Yi had previously assembled was to extract and preserve the entire genetic information, or the life chain, of the Crazy Demon, which was the first step of Long Yi’s plan. Life turned into crystal by Crystal Poison, but its genetic material had not changed, merely becoming crystal as well. If it were any ordinary Human, naturally there would have been nothing that could be done. But Long Yi was not an ordinary Human; he had a way to solve this problem.
Of course, to outsiders, this method seemed incredibly magical.
Soon, Long Yi also completed the modification of the second device, which was used to contain souls and consciousness. The third device was more complicated; Long Yi disassembled a series of devices and then reassembled them. It took a long time before he finally finished.
"This is the Life Regeneration Device," seeing the puzzled looks of the people around him, Long Yi explained directly.
The name was immensely grand, and the people around immediately treated the massive device with the sink with reverence.
"So, what about this first one?" Elma finally couldn’t help himself and asked. Even he didn’t know what that reassembled device actually was.
"This is a life analysis device, used for analyzing the composition of life," Long Yi said.
Elma nodded as if he understood, but after thinking about it carefully, he really didn’t know what analyzing the composition of life meant. But it would be too embarrassing to continue asking, so he simply feigned understanding.
"And what is this second device?" Elma asked, pointing to the second piece of equipment.
"That is a soul container, used to hold souls and memories," Long Yi said.
Life analysis? Soul container? Life regeneration?
These three names made Elma suddenly realize what the Ascender intended to do, he wasn’t trying to restore the Crazy Demons, he was attempting to create a new body for those who had already turned into Crazy Demons!
Could it really be done like this? Seeing this, Elma’s trust in Long Yi couldn’t help but increase a lot, not just because the process seemed very reliable. It was also because once it succeeded, he could immediately discard this Crystal Demon body and then create countless bodies as backups, so that he could immediately switch to a new body whenever he suffered fatal injuries!
Just thinking about it got Elma excited.
Of course, all of this naturally depended on whether the Ascender’s subsequent experiments would succeed.
"Come, throw the prepared nutrients into it."
Long Yi opened a device, and some researchers who had been prepared at the side immediately took out various foods from their private space, including meat, vegetables, and fruit. After filling the device with food, it began to operate.
"This device will separate all the nutrients from the food and infuse them into pure water, and then a new life will be born here," Long Yi said, pointing to the water tank that was gradually becoming murky.
Afterward, Long Yi began to operate the first device, injecting life information into a blank cell. Then, this blank cell would become an ovum and begin to proliferate in the water tank.
"Alright everyone, I now need your help, pour your Mana into the life regeneration device. You must know that life regeneration consumes a lot of Mana, and you must not be negligent," Long Yi said.
No one dared to be negligent, almost everyone was eager to witness the miracle happen!
As Mana was infused, a tiny embryo faintly appeared in the murky liquid, and then the embryo rapidly grew. The water in the tank gradually became clear, and the device that provided nutrients continued to inject more sustenance. The embryo slowly turned into an infant, then into a child, growing into an adult!
And that adult’s face was identical to that of the person who had not turned into Crazy Demons!
"This is simply... miraculous!"
A group of elderly scientists marveled, while Long Yi approached the life regeneration device, turned it off. After draining the water from the tank, a flash of an electric arc passed, and the person in the tank immediately began to cough violently. But he did not open his eyes or show any other reaction; the coughing was just an instinct.
"Good, now what remains is to infuse the soul and memories," Long Yi said as he approached the soul container and operated the device. A light immediately projected onto the top of the man’s head in the water tank, causing him to involuntarily open his eyes. Then, two more lights projected into his eyes, and his body immediately stiffened.
After a moment, the light disappeared, and the man lost all reactions.
Long Yi walked over, glanced at him, and said, "He will probably wake up tomorrow. Someone come and take him to a clean place, we’ll see the results tomorrow."
Everyone left, and according to Elma’s orders, the laboratory was immediately sealed off. Without his permission, no one was allowed to enter. All results had to wait until tomorrow.
