Chapter 66 Gundam, Standing Tall on the Earth
After Victor severed control over the cats and dogs.
All the bone fragments gathered three meters in front of Luo Lan, and the dark blue light clearly outlined the shape of each bone fragment.
Luo Lan extended her left hand, and the alloy-textured skull finger bones opened, guiding these dark blue and white bones to reassemble.
[Dead Body Assembly lv.1]
Under Luo Lan's manipulation, the shattered bones began to reassemble.
Small pieces of finger and toe bones were squeezed together to serve as joint fillers. The four long bones of a dog's leg were split into eight pieces and assembled to form the framework of the limbs. The cat's spine was connected to form a waist support. The bone plates of a dog's skull were disassembled and covered the chest cavity to serve as armor plates. The remaining ribs were welded together on both sides of the torso.
Finally, several sharp canine teeth and shattered shoulder blades, fused together by the eerie blue flames, directly combined into a large, exaggerated, serrated bone blade.
In less than two breaths, a "humanoid Gundam" about two meters tall, painstakingly pieced together from scattered bones, landed steadily in front of Luo Lan.
This skeletal humanoid figure, wreathed in blue flames, holds a large bone-bladed sword upside down. Its rough skeleton exudes a savage tension, a blend of wasteland style and undead skeletal features.
After this tinkering, the originally exquisite creations of cats and dogs, which were assembled from [Dead Remains Assembly lv.9], were disassembled and reassembled into crude humanoids with only lv.1 level.
At first glance, it seems to offer no help to the battle.
However, this change directly altered the creator of the undead construct from Victor to Roland himself.
This means that this skeletal structure now requires less energy to maintain its existence.
Victor's consciousness returned to the Soul Stone, and his neutral voice came from his left hand:
"Reassembly complete: a two-meter-tall humanoid construct, energy consumption reduced, but precision decreased..."
"That's enough. Now comes the main event."
To ensure that his next steps would not be interrupted, Luo Lan reached into his storage space and pulled out the remaining exploding magic crystals and the glass bottle filled with acid.
Divide the acid bottles into two groups of three, and throw them in front of and behind you respectively. The glass bottles shattered on the stone slab, and the light green liquid splattered all over the ground.
Immediately afterwards, the exploding magic crystal was activated by the holy light and exploded instantly upon impact with the stone slab.
The intense heat of the explosion directly ignited the splashed light green corrosive acid.
As a result of the two violent reactions, two fierce walls of fire instantly sprang up on both sides of the dark room passage, temporarily blocking Luo Lan from the two evil thought slimes, one in front and one behind.
These two walls of fire won't hold for long, but they'll be enough for Luo Lan to handle the next few dozen seconds.
He removed the heavy left gauntlet and pressed the stark white, metallic bone claw directly onto the rough spine of the two-meter-tall "White Bone Gundam" in front of him.
[Condensation]!
This action is expected to consume 250 Chaos Essence.
[Confirm?]
[It can be done!]
Without further hesitation, Luo Lan took out five bottles of high-efficiency energy potions from her storage space.
The pale green liquid flowed down his throat, nourishing the Pale Holy Light Circulation that had been operating at high intensity all day.
The pale holy light shone again within his body, like a wick about to go out being refilled with new oil.
Logically speaking, a peak-level Gold-rank evil slime aggregate is indeed powerful, but the body inherited from "former hero Roland" is equally powerful.
If he can use Holy Light efficiently, Roran can definitely defeat them.
Large-scale destructive divine spells like [Holy Light Judgment] are perfect for dealing with the Chaos Mountain of Flesh, which is over twenty meters tall.
But here's the problem—Luo Lan doesn't know any divine magic.
Praying to a fictional being to summon holy light, and then enchanting the sword and armor with that holy light, is the limit of Luo Lan's current application of holy light.
Using a broadsword meant for normal humans to cut down a creature over twenty meters long, even with holy light, the resulting wounds might not heal as quickly as those from an evil slime.
Not to mention, a portion of the Holy Light also needs to be used to resist the ever-falling corrupting blood rain.
If a fatal injury cannot be inflicted in a short time, and a war of attrition is waged, Luo Lan will definitely lose.
But it doesn't matter. Luo Lan will soon have a better way to use Holy Light.
[Condensation - Enhancement]!
[Consumed Chaos Essence: 250]
[Current Chaotic Essence: 50]
Dark purple chaotic particles surged from between the fingers of Luo Lan's left hand, pouring into the skeleton, while pale holy light was drawn from the gaps in the armor of his right hand and injected along the same path.
Two energies converge within the skeleton: the purplish-black particles drive the bone to grow wildly, while the pale holy light fuels the eerie blue bone fire at each joint, causing the gradually enlarging white bone to burn fiercely.
The chaotic essence was consumed in ten-point increments. For every ten points withdrawn, the humanoid figure grew one meter taller.
The bone blade extended, the number of spinal fragments multiplied, and the leg bone frame became thicker and denser as it lengthened.
"Kuku ka ka..."
The dull thuds of bone remodeling echoed throughout.
When all 250 points of Chaos Essence were drained, along with most of the Holy Light that Luo Lan had just recovered from with the Energy Potion, it was also completely depleted.
In the firelight at the end of the passage, the rough humanoid figure that was originally two meters tall had swelled into a colossal creature that was twenty-seven meters tall.
This "Gundam mecha" made entirely of giant bones is even a head taller than the evil slime itself.
This [Condensation-Enhancement] is simply a massive increase in volume.
Since it neither changes the actual level of its lv.1 skill nor increases the extraordinary rank of the skeleton, the consumption of source essence is not high.
Victor's voice echoed in my mind, still steady:
"Target size achieved. Size disadvantage has been eliminated. Warning: Low-level undead creation, clumsy in movement..."
As Victor warned, if this skeleton Gundam were allowed to act on its own according to its level 1 intelligence, it would mostly be like a clumsy puppet.
Despite its large size, which allows it to cause significant damage, it is still difficult to defeat the Evil Thought Slime Aggregate.
but--
[Condensation] is not over yet!
The purplish-black chaotic essence surged forth once again from Luo Lan's left-hand bone claw.
[Casting - Assembly]
[Consumed Chaos Essence: 50]
[Current Chaotic Essence: 0]
The object to be assembled is: Luo Lan!
This time, the purple-black particles were not released outwards, but instead enveloped Luo Lan himself.
With the last bit of source energy consumed, Luo Lan was lifted off the ground by a burst of purplish-black particles.
He floated up from the ground, passed through the barrier of white bones, and merged directly into the huge head above the white bone Gundam, which was three or four meters in diameter.
The compartment at the top of the Gundam was empty except for a specially reserved recess.
"Click".
Luo Lan inserted her entire left hand inside, the bones locking together.
Since the creation of the [Dead Remains Assembly lv.1] is clumsy.
So, Luo Lan assembled himself inside the White Bone Gundam.
He will personally pilot the Gundam into battle!
Sensory synchronization rate: 88%. Neural computation load: 92%.
As Victor's voice prompted him, Luo Lan's senses expanded instantly.
It is no longer just a human body that is over 1.8 meters tall.
The sensation of my feet stepping on gravel came up from 27 meters below. The weight distribution of the bone blade in my right hand was clearly perceptible. The state of every rib, every segment of the spine, and every joint was unfolding in my consciousness.
Through the eye sockets of the Gundam cockpit, Roland saw the world outside, dyed orange-red by flames.
The corrosive blood rain eventually extinguished the burning acid, and the two walls of fire shrank lower and lower in the dark red rain curtain, finally turning into a few wisps of orange-red flames that lingered on the stone bricks.
The massive body of the evil slime aggregate slid out from the ashes of the sea of fire, still maintaining its overwhelming momentum.
One large and one small, one in front and one behind, two evil thought slimes rushed towards Luo Lan at the same time.
Amidst a sea of fire, the skeleton Gundam slowly straightened its body.
The eerie blue soul fire surged and burned between the twenty-seven-meter-tall skeleton, making the equally gigantic bone blade shine with a sinister light.
The corrupted blood rain fell on its body, but was instantly evaporated by the ghostly blue soul fire.
As the body moved, the earth roared and trembled.
Gundam stands tall on the earth!
