Bizarre Realm-Chapter 246 - 40: Genetic Lock! Research on Flesh Contamination
Transcendent ascension is like a practice gone awry, with each advancement causing additional internal and external injuries.
Shawn began recording his research.
This Beastman Berserker’s Extraordinary Level is around 11, which is not a significant problem; he can fully dominate and enslave it.
Shawn simultaneously examined the target through spells and spiritual energy. The Mind Link and Reading Thoughts were used to diagnose the psychological state of this Beastman Berserker. In this respect, even the top psychologists from his past life on Earth could not surpass him.
After all, he really could read the target’s brain thoughts.
However, examining the blood and flesh corruption was quite troublesome, given that the Bizarre Realm lacked the technological conditions of his past life on Earth.
"It feels like it requires the ability of the Necromancy School."
"Anatomy?"
"After all, it’s not a corpse, so it’s better to go easy on the living."
Shawn fell into deep thought.
Before him stood a dazed Beastman Berserker, whose mind had been completely dominated by Shawn.
"I could try reverse inference."
"First, I fully suppress the opponent’s mind, turning him into a vegetable."
"Then, would a vegetable go berserk?"
"If it would, the berserk state isn’t caused by his mind but rather his body automatically going berserk."
"Fallen Mother Goddess’s genes, automatically parasitizing blood and flesh Transcendents?"
With a thought in mind, he took action.
Although there was no immediate solution, Shawn could first understand the underlying principles.
——Knowledge Suppression.
——Dumb Spell!
Shawn began casting spells on the Beastman Berserker before him. Since the Warrior Path inherently lacked Mystical Knowledge, he applied an additional Dumb Spell to the opponent.
——Deep Sleep.
——Personality Suppression.
After consecutively casting several spells, Shawn finally brought the target into a state very close to that of a vegetable, suppressing its self-awareness to the extreme, leaving only an empty shell on the experimental platform.
"Next is to induce a berserk state."
"It would be great if there was a way to detect changes in the target’s hormones and adrenaline."
Shawn thought of a disease from his past life.
Hyperthyroidism.
Its full name is hyperthyroidism, a syndrome caused by the thyroid gland producing excessive thyroid hormones, leading to increased metabolic activity in the body, heightened excitability of the nervous, circulatory, digestive systems, and accelerated metabolism.
"Transcendents of the Warrior Path have a fast bodily metabolic rate, superhuman motor nerves, and very strong digestive abilities."
"But they are prone to emotional irritability and hyperexcitability."
"When entering a combat state, Transcendents of the Warrior Path tend to be inclined towards a reckless and abusive side."
"Genetic evolution?"
"Is there a concept of unlocking a ’Genetic Lock’ in the blood and flesh?"
Shawn began the next step of the experiment.
With the spell’s light, in the case where the target had no self-awareness left, just an empty shell, Shawn induced a fierce berserk state through a Transformation Spell. On the experimental platform, the blood vessels of the Beastman Berserker began to dilate and accelerate in flow. His heartbeat pounded like a war drum, and the muscles all over his body coiled and bulged, strengthening automatically based on instinct, swelling an entire round. This Beastman Berserker named Andre entered a berserk state.
Powerless Fury.
Because there was no awareness to control the body anymore.
"The inference is confirmed!"
"The pollution on the blood and flesh side really is a pathological change in the body itself, bringing forth great power, with side effects that follow."
"It seems to possess a certain activation characteristic."
"Even if the self-personality completely disappears, the body will still execute these abilities."
"The body has become a tool?"
"Hmm?"
"A genetically evolved flesh machine? No, it’s difficult to summarize just yet."
"However, this discovery reminds me of the genetic technology in Earth’s science fiction stories, some kind of twisted genetic Ascension?"
——Human Immobilization Technique!
——Undying Touch!
Shawn’s fingers lightly brushed across, and the Beastman Berserker before him instantly became stiffened in place.
"Blood sampling!"
"I need to find a way to test it."
"Currently, there aren’t suitable tools; it would be best if there was a method allowing me to detect his hormonal changes."
"It should be a certain hormone-like concept that has already been embedded in his body, evolving."
"I wonder if there are any differences in organs?"
"Transcendents of the Warrior Side, did they unlock the ’Genetic Lock’?"
Transcendents are no longer considered normal humans.
Shawn felt that his next step might need to delve into anatomy and necromancy, as only by understanding the principle of blood and flesh corruption could he attempt a solution.
Not far away, Succubus - Veronica watched all this in shock.
She couldn’t quite imagine, if the master could solve mental pollution and also heal blood and flesh corruption, what significant status he would hold in Abyss City!
