Cultivating in the Wizard World-Chapter 184 - 70: Logistics Element Work (2)_2

Under normal conditions, this layer of living lava thinly covers the "rock skin," granting the Magma Giant its iconic crimson sheen and terrifying high temperature.

Benjamin narrated this information to the recorder beside him, then turned his attention to the overall physical qualities of the Magma Giant.

"Luckily, I’m also skilled in Rune Science, otherwise it would be impossible to calculate this thing."

He muttered to himself, calculating through the energy fluctuations inside the Magma Giant and the efficiency of its energy system.

He discovered that even though this living specimen appeared to be just an ordinary adult soldier type, the "All-Purpose Eye" showed through its energy density, power matrix, and internal elemental cycle evaluation that it possessed physique far superior to ordinary creatures.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that even the most ordinary Magma Giant, once mature, can easily reach the level of a First Level Creature in terms of physical fitness and energy level.

And if it was an elite individual like those previously fighting against the wizard’s cannon fodder, each could even reach Second Level.

He continued to delve deeper into the exploration of the Magma Giant’s internals, seeking the secrets of its sensory and physiological systems.

The visual system of the Magma Giant is completely different from that of humans.

Their eyes are not composed of lenses and retinas but are two "cores of magma" radiating a scarlet glow.

Through the insight of the "All-Purpose Eye," Benjamin discovered that these are organs extremely sensitive to elemental energy and thermal fluctuations.

They can directly "see" the trajectory of heat flow in the air, the frequency of lava pulsations, and even sense weak energy radiation from remote elemental arrays.

Their demand for visible light is extremely low; their vision is built purely on fire element perception, allowing them to see as clearly as in daylight even in darkness, as long as there is heat or fire elements present.

Their auditory system is even more peculiar.

Benjamin found no obvious ear flaps, but sensed a series of small resonance cavities and mineral crystals inside the Magma Giant’s head.

These crystals can capture vibrations; they are not sensitive to high-frequency sounds but have remarkable discriminatory power for low-frequency infrasound and underground vibrations.

Through this method, Magma Giants can easily perceive distant troop movements, volcanic magma activities, and even impending anomalies deep within the crust.

This is a highly adaptive seismic or vibrational sensing ability for volcanic environments.

What surprised Benjamin even more was that Magma Giants, despite being evidently elemental creatures, possess a complete digestive system!

Under his Alchemy and the "All-Purpose Eye" analysis, a complex and efficient digestive tract was revealed inside the Magma Giant. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

It’s not an intestine of traditional organisms but is made of multiple layers of lava, capable of directly digesting and decomposing minerals.

The Magma Giant is not entirely dependent on elemental energy for survival, and can even consume creatures with flesh—Benjamin found remnants of incompletely digested organic matter in the esophagus inside its head.

This undoubtedly overturned his traditional understanding of elemental creatures.

This digestive system means they can obtain energy from a wider range of sources, supplementing the deficiency of pure elemental energy.

He also observed that, although they appear to be moving magma and rocks, these creatures need to breathe.

Even when bound by witchcraft and in a comatose state, rhythmic heat waves and weak air currents were still entering and exiting through small fissures on their heads and trunks, indicating that respiration is also a necessary condition for their survival.

This breathing is not purely for oxygen exchange but resembles an internal heat pump and elemental transformation to maintain core furnace stability and exclude metabolic impurities.

Undoubtedly, Magma Giants excel at fire attribute attacks.

They can convert scorching lava and flames on their surface at any time, igniting everything around them with a mere strike.

They are innately immune to flames, high temperatures, and most heat-based toxins.

Their core furnace can convert all flame energy into their own power, making any Fire Magic seem like a tonic to them.

Through even deeper research, Benjamin discovered an astonishing trait of the Magma Giant race.

If a Magma Giant remains in an excessively hot environment for a prolonged period, such as the core of an active volcano or under the sustained influence of powerful Fire Magic, its entire being undergoes a qualitative transformation, turning into a semi-liquid magma state.

In this state, its "rock skin" becomes softer and more fluid, and the body loses its fixed shape. Physical strikes are nearly ineffective, as the attacks either pass through or are absorbed by the magma.

Moreover, even if a part of the body is damaged, it can regenerate by absorbing magma from the surrounding environment, or through remarkable natural recovery abilities!

This indicates that their body tissues can freely interchange between "solid rock" and "liquid magma," switching at will.

Additionally, by extracting external magma, they can immensely enhance their strength and regeneration rate in a short time.

This is a frightening adaptive ability, making them almost invincible in a fiery environment.

But that’s not all.

Benjamin switched the "All-Purpose Eye" focus to the Magma Giant’s internal heat stability mechanism, and was astonished to find that these creatures don’t actually fear cold temperatures in the short term!

If a Magma Giant suddenly encounters extreme cold attacks, such as the Frost Breath from a Frost Dark Realm Yeti or a wizard’s Ice Magic, its seemingly hard rock skin on the surface can rapidly cool and form a porous structure.

This process is akin to the physical phenomenon of "thermal expansion and contraction," with the internal living magma temporarily retracting to the core, while the exterior quickly forms a porous, hard insulating layer to insulate its internal scorching core furnace.

This mechanism allows them to temporarily withstand freezing damage, so small-scale low-temperature attacks are far less effective than expected.

However, this resistance is not without cost.

Once the entire being is in extreme cold, in this "cold stasis" state, although the Magma Giant won’t be immediately destroyed, its life energy cycle will become sluggish.

This results in a significant reduction in its powerful regenerative abilities, and its movement speed slows, as if entering some dormant or rigid state.

This discovery made Benjamin’s eyes sparkle:

"Record this, hypothesized potentially effective methods of neutralizing..."

He rapidly drafted a preliminary tactical analysis on the Magic Network Terminal:

"Start with cold strikes!" Benjamin noted in the report, "Utilize Ice Magic or other cold attacks to forcefully induce the Magma Giant’s surface skin into an insulating ’stasis’ state. In this state, their regenerative abilities are drastically weakened. Then, by employing physical attacks, one can more effectively neutralize the Magma Giant!"

Ordinary flame attacks are almost ineffective against them, and pure physical attacks are difficult to achieve in their liquid or regenerative state.

However, combining low temperature with physical strikes can perfectly bypass their two main defensive advantages.

"Furthermore, asphyxiation spells are surprisingly effective, though not leading to effective neutralization, they can slow the Magma Giant’s actions for a short time."

Yet Benjamin knew that the mechanics of most asphyxiation spells were based on blocking a creature’s breathing pathways, likely ineffective against a creature with the Magma Giant’s physiological structure.

Despite this, with the vast array of witchcraft invented by wizards, it should still be possible to find the necessary witchcraft.

"Additionally, high-frequency sound waves can also deliver effective blows..."

He immediately uploaded the analysis report to the Magic Net, sending it to the senior commanders in the war zone.

"Indeed, every creature has its weaknesses."

Rubbing his somewhat fatigued forehead, Benjamin slightly smiled and closed the "All-Purpose Eye."
