You Have Obtained Trait Eligibility
After the absolute explosion, the enormous energy repeatedly vibrated and accumulated within the enclosed cave, eventually forming a bottomless crater.
The edges of the pit have a glassy texture, as if it had melted and then cooled rapidly. Its diameter and depth are extremely large, almost as if a completely new secondary cave had been carved out inside the original massive cave.
Large caves give rise to smaller caves, and large Mutation give rise to smaller Mutation.
The utterly inhuman man lay twisted at the bottom, stunned for several seconds before slowly getting up.
"What... what? This is the [Spell] effect from this Trait Dungeon?"
The clueless man looked down at the body, which was now just a skeleton covered in various Mutation flesh and blood, and his mind became increasingly sluggish.
Even more terrifying is that the power of [Mutation], nourished by the destructive energy just now, has become even more Berserk and penetrating, Corrosion his "vessel" at an unprecedented rate.
"My believer, tell me, what happened to your Health Points in those last two seconds?"
Deep down, He still couldn't accept this fact.
That [Scholar] not only concocted such an extraordinary combination of Spells, but also possessed [Mutation] Spells that could directly distort the existence of his "vessel".
Both of these, taken individually, are outrageous enough.
But what He found most absurd was the opponent's incalculable rate of casting healing Spells.
That hydrogen bomb Spell just now, converted to the damage calculation method used in Trait Dungeons, would have been at least several million, right?
That's enough for Him to eliminate thousands of times!
But that [Scholar's] healing orb, its green rain of light, actually managed to keep His Health Points at... at least not instantly zero amidst that destructive torrent?
What the hell is this thing? Is it open?
"Believers? Believers?!"
Despite repeated calls, only deathly silence remained on the other end of the soul link.
He sensed something was wrong.
As a follower, He cannot directly "see" any information on the System Panel. All information about the Survival System is conveyed to Him through the spiritual transmission of His believers.
After repeated calls went unanswered, He looked up and gazed at the layered "Black Holes " above where Su Luo was located.
He was now somewhat powerless and completely restrained.
His immense power cannot reside in the believer's "body," only a portion of his power and consciousness reside there.
At this moment, sustained by an endless supply of healing bullets, it cannot be "eliminated" through the most direct means—such as having its temporary Health Points reach zero.
However, the excessive vitality of His "container" itself prevents Him from triggering the "Near-Death Teleportation" survival mechanism.
Any "external interference" that exceeds the norm is constrained by the "membrane".
He could only passively endure the beatings, be Mutation, be healed... maintaining a terrifying balance where he could neither live nor die.
He'll just go to jail.
What's even more frustrating is that the healing bullets do have some effect on Him.
Even though it has been nerfed by the Dungeon rules, and each [Natural Healing Bolt] only has a negligible healing effect on Him, the sheer quantity makes up for it.
The healing bullets were restoring His temporary Health Points and were indeed slowly repairing some of the physical damage to His body, replenishing His consumed stamina. At the same time, [Mutation] was continuously increasing in intensity.
The repair process accelerated the fusion and stabilization of the Mutation material, causing the Mutation to Corrosion everything about him at a faster speed and at a deeper level.
He hadn't experienced this kind of helplessness for many years, watching helplessly as everything around him deteriorated, and his believers disappeared without a trace.
Meanwhile, within the tightly sealed cluster of "Black Holes," Su Luo's situation was not entirely worry-free. His right hand remained firmly gripping his wand, maintaining the torrent of Spell.
But his left arm was writhing uncontrollably, as if countless tiny creatures were struggling beneath his skin.
Su Luo suddenly exerted force with her left hand, expelling a piece of screaming and struggling flesh and blood, throwing it into the "Black Hole," and watching it be swallowed up.
Even Su Luo himself could not completely avoid the Contamination of [Mutation], despite his layers of Abjuration and prior preparations.
This thing is extremely dangerous.
The two of them went like this, one getting beaten and the other beating, with the one beating even giving the one being beaten medical treatment.
It's like sticking excrement to a vine, Enchantment as you fight.
Another twenty minutes passed.
At this moment, the Spread of the Mutation has reached a critical point, completely changing the face of the entire Dungeon world.
Everywhere the naked eye could see was flesh and blood surging and pulsating like living mountains and seas, and twisted tissue structures.
The entire cave ecosystem has been completely replaced. The Mutation flesh and blood devour all the remaining living things in the Dungeon. Those originally ferocious monsters have now become an insignificant part of this ever-expanding wave of Mutation, assimilated or used as nourishment.
On His remaining head, the eye covered by bone was riddled with cracks, while the other eye had completely transformed into a fleshy mouth that dripped with viscous fluid.
Laughter came from inside.
After observing for a while, Su Luo looked at her left arm, which was covered with tumors, slowed down her movements, and decided to stop.
If this continues, I won't be able to control the Aberrant Elements that Infestation my body.
Just as I was thinking this, the "world" outside, made up of Mutation flesh and blood, underwent an unimaginable disturbance!
The vast expanse of crimson flesh and blood, as if it had instantly lost the inner strength that supported its form, began to wither and shrink on a large scale. Countless huge chunks of flesh and blood tissue and various indescribable organs rolled down like an avalanche, frantically converging towards the bottom of the pit and towards the remaining remains of the white-eyed man!
Su Luo stared intently at the scene before him, recording the data, while simultaneously severing and discarding his left hand. He had already confined the vast majority of the Aberrant Elements to his left arm.
He roared fiercely, and his high-pitched scream was faintly audible to Su Luo.
The power of [Mutation], as if it had finally found a breach in a dam, surged into His broken body.
The new Mutation tissue proliferated at an unprecedented rate, but what grew out was no longer the Mutation organ that Su Luo recognized. Instead, it was a purely chaotic creation, a mixture of metal minerals, flesh, plants, and mucus.
Su Luo retrieved previous experimental data for comparison.
"The key difference... is orderliness... Mutation gave birth to its own will?"
Su Luo recalled the continent-level life forms from other continents in the Trial Instance.
"Even Aberrant Elements can give rise to will... It seems to be related to size; thankfully, there haven't been large-scale experiments."
Despite the observations, Su Luo's healing bombs never stopped.
The spectacular fusion soon came to an end.
The clueless man was no longer there, and he no longer even had a "human" form.
All that remained was a fleshy ball, about three meters in diameter, constantly wriggling, its surface sometimes revealing eyeballs, sometimes extending tentacles, and sometimes cracking open to reveal a strange structure—a ball that defied description.
Where is He?
He is still there.
"Believers? Believers?"
He has now completely lost control of his body and has returned to the spiritual world to search for his followers and the Forbidden Class who brought him out.
Soon, He came into contact with a consciousness.
A strange consciousness, chaotic and evil, whose very presence caused its consciousness to become slightly distorted upon contact.
He fell silent.
This is a being that can threaten Him—a consciousness born from Mutation!
"Scholar, you deserve to die a horrible death!"
Su Luo checked the time and stopped casting the healing Spell.
