Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons-Chapter 715 - 631: Biodynamic Structure

On the azure sea, golden light shone straight down from the sky, reflecting flashes of gold, rippling with the sea breeze.

Waves piled layer upon layer, surging forward with the wind.

The surging waves encountered an obstruction, fiercely striking it with their own strength, producing a crisp sound.

The object being struck by the waves was a steel ship, its entire exterior transformed into a milky white by unknown materials.

The bow was razor-sharp, slicing through the waves, swiftly sailing forward.

The raging waves could not shake this colossal object, carried by the sea breeze.

The entire tail of the ship bore a large lantern design, reflecting a metallic luster.

In the distant sea, under immense pressure a curve was split open, with this silver silhouette flying swiftly across the sky.

Its rapid speed broke through the air, creating a sonic barrier, making the sea below seem split in two by a steel knife.

Dragging long streaks of blood-red flames, the massive creature slowed down upon approaching the ship, then extended its lower limbs forward.

Its wings pushed in reverse, quickly suspending its entire body, then gently landing on the deck.

Kane had been waiting on the deck for some time, with a massive virtual panel before him covered in dense data and a structural diagram of the Comet Dragon.

The Comet Dragon parked before him shook its body, and a dozen intelligent cores controlling probe spheres flew down from its form.

The enormous body moved forward a few steps, then its neck stretched out causing its head to droop down, looking at the data template in front of Kane.

"How is it, Kane, has the data collection been completed?"

Hearing the loud noise from behind, Kane nodded: "The collection was very detailed, I've roughly understood how your body operates."

Ever since Kane encountered the Comet Dragon, he was intensely intrigued by this creature, and its body structure was simply too peculiar.

Saying it had a biological structure was more akin to a mechanical structure, especially with the wings and tail forming propulsion units.

Furthermore, Kane discovered that the so-called jet outlets were not just located in those positions, but also in the Comet Dragon's legs, although they were inexplicably sealed.

The data was collected because this biological structure surely offered great inspiration to Kane.

Honestly speaking, Kane's propulsion device was merely brute force in flying.

It simply reduced magic power to energy for thrust, lacking much technological sophistication.

It relied purely on Kane's fundamental energy circuits and skill characteristics to form the structure.

Such a fundamental structure in truth lacked high technological sophistication; as long as the magic power was sufficient, it naturally allowed for propulsion and takeoff.

If the previous flying vehicle was realized, flying for ten minutes was already quite remarkable.

Meaning, this equipment lacked general applicability, belonging solely to Kane's exclusive propulsion structure, and it was rather mediocre.

If the Mechanical Association's master saw the flying vehicle Kane created with this kind of propulsion structure, he would surely scorn him.

What a waste of energy, entirely devoid of mechanical beauty, akin to a mud ball arbitrarily molded by monkeys.

There was no choice; Kane's understanding and samples in this area were simply lacking.

The Mechanical Association did not have much data in this area, and the airship's propulsion structure was not very good either, necessitating a large auxiliary floating magic gas bag.

Thus, Kane was particularly interested in the propulsion structure of the Comet Dragon.

The combination of mechanics and magic allowed magic power machinery structure to easily simulate the features of some animal organs.

The reason why the Comet Dragon was so willing to let Kane study it was partly due to their decent relationship, and Kane felt he could enhance its speed.

Because the Comet Dragon relied solely on instinct for power and speed, when he found himself in that world fragment alone, he was still a young dragon.

His attack capabilities were very crude, relying entirely on robust speed and sturdy body for offense.

The world fragment formerly inhabited had very few creatures able to stand with him, hardly ever encountering an equal existence.

Kane found that many of its organs were not utilized well, leading to this mutually beneficial transaction.

After pondering for a moment, Kane looked up at the Comet Dragon: "Israel, would you like to join my guild? It should provide you significant help."

Kane intended to use the training ground characteristics to better train and research the Comet Dragon, and also to enhance its combat instinct training.

"Guild?" The Comet Dragon was somewhat confused.

"It's about becoming partners with us, helping each other and growing together."

Upon hearing Kane's explanation, the Comet Dragon nodded. This was a good thing, and immediately agreed readily.

Comet Dragon Israel became the guild's first non-humanoid member, and with an extremely large physique.

Reflecting the guild emblem in golden metallic luster, it was printed on the chest area.

Since it was not humanoid, the area easily accessible by its wing claws was chosen for ease of use.

With the emblem imprinted, the Comet Dragon scratched the part of the chest with the emblem, and looked at his body somewhat puzzled: "It feels like there's a slight power increase, is it an illusion?"

"It's not an illusion, it's considered the first assistance after becoming partners with our team."

Logically, the enhancement should be somewhat significant, but considering the Comet Dragon is a dragon-shaped beast with a body length of over ten meters.

Its constitution naturally exceeds what humanoid intelligent creatures possess, so the guild's attribute bonus was not overly apparent for it.

However, this raised a problem; the massive body of the Comet Dragon made it difficult to move in the Guild Hall.

At times like this, naturally, they had to turn to the omnipotent Lilu. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

After Lilu came over, she waved her magic wand and easily solved the problem.

Lilu used magic to shrink the Comet Dragon's body, enlarging its size to about two meters, which was the limit to which the Comet Dragon's constitution could be reduced.

This kind of magic is actually very impractical; as long as one's magic resistance is slightly high, it can completely offset its effects, and the casting speed is very slow, making it easy to break.

The reason why it could be used on the Comet Dragon was completely because it was undefended and willing to be shrunk.

The Comet Dragon, with its body shrunken, walked a few painful steps on the deck, feeling uncomfortable all over.

This feeling was like having one's body compressed, extremely uncomfortable.

However, it could endure for a short while.

Then it was handed over to Adoma for guild function introduction.

After going through the process, the Comet Dragon developed a great interest in the guild.

In its personal space, it could fully restore its size because its personal space had been set to resemble a nest atop a high mountain peak, which it loved very much.

Although it couldn't move freely inside, curling up and resting was certainly no problem, and just that was enough for it.

Then came the training ground.

This was the main reason Kane brought the Comet Dragon into the guild.

On a wide platform in the training ground, Kane said to the fully extended Comet Dragon in front of him: "You still have two nozzles on your legs. Try infusing the red energy you use for flying into them to see if you can open them."

To prevent any accidents, the training ground was the best site, where one could unleash power and study skills without fear of harming the body.

Then the Comet Dragon shook its head.

"Can't do it?" Kane was puzzled.

The Comet Dragon's body now should be at the mature stage, with no reason the leg nozzles couldn't open.

Especially through scanning, the internal structure was clear, and the leg nozzles should be able to open.

"Run your energy again, I'll monitor it in real-time with Yoyo."

Then Kane discovered the issue: "The energy route in the legs is somewhat complex compared to other areas. You have to start the flow from here downwards."

Kane pointed at the 3D structure in front of him, speaking to the Comet Dragon.

The Comet Dragon observed seriously for a while, nodding.

Then it continued running the energy, and after several attempts, finally opened the leg nozzles to let energy gush out, albeit clumsily, needing more training.

The overly awkward nozzle allowed the red energy to concentrate too much, causing an explosion with great power.

Seeing this, Kane felt like discovering new land; yes, this was the correct use, such strong red energy couldn't merely be used for propulsion speeds in flight, it surely had other uses.

Based on the peculiar sight just now, Kane continued to conduct even more unusual training for the Comet Dragon. After all, this was a training space where nothing would go wrong.

Kane even performed temporary body modifications here; after all, this space was a virtual environment identical to reality.

This was the best place for practice.

...

The next day.

Kane and the others still hadn't left the training ground. The rapid improvement in strength left the Comet Dragon extraordinarily infatuated.

Under Kane's scientific guidance based on its body structure, the dragon felt a sense of enlightenment.

This also allowed Kane to better collect data on the Comet Dragon's body and its organ structure.

At this moment, the Comet Dragon flew in the sky, its entire body resembling a red comet swiftly flying across the sky, visible only as a red shadow streaking across the horizon.

With the new nozzles on its legs, the Comet Dragon moved even faster and, due to its leg structure, could perform more agile maneuvers in the sky, greatly enhancing its agility in the air.

This also made the Comet Dragon trust Kane more, as it was Kane indeed who helped develop some of its bodily capabilities.

Then, in the sky, the Comet Dragon suddenly stopped as its leg nozzles abruptly shot out a ball of blood-red concentrated energy, dropping downwards.

As the energy hit the training platform below, the explosive force caused by the energy unleashed a huge impact, creating a giant spiral-shaped destruction at the center. Wind-like scenes appeared around, as if a storm had swept through.

The blood-red energy, essentially a concentrated form of wind attribute magic, was likely due to the Comet Dragon's body structure.

Normally, wind attribute magic in nature predominantly appears as cyan.

This condensed blood-red wind attribute magic indicated that the Comet Dragon should have more offensive methods and capabilities.

At this time, one couldn't help but marvel at the Comet Dragon's extraordinary racial talents.

It hadn't even developed its racial abilities yet but had already entered the golden stage through bodily growth alone.

Thus Kane began, continuing to help the Comet Dragon develop its bodily abilities.

Also allowing it a deeper understanding of this energy and its bodily structure.

Through understanding the Comet Dragon's body structure, Kane already gained numerous insights, with inspiration accumulating in his mind.

Before long, he would manage to develop a propulsion core that combines machinery and magic through this biological structure.
