Cruze, Basak, Luo, Graham and others looked slightly silent as they watched Xiao Ran thrust forward and back in the distance, flying around with groups of ELS. It's not that they can't deal with this group of ELS. Even if they can't be dealt with, they can actually run away, but the battle on the other side is not over now, and Xiao Ran here has never given them any combat orders. Apart from keeping silent and watching, they actually have no good way to solve the current situation.
Basak stared blankly at the Dawn Tactical Armor that had become as bright as a small sun on the screen. Both the man and the machine were scratching their heads at the same time. He did not understand why Xiao Ran did this. He even more directly explained, "What on earth is he doing? Why doesn't he launch an attack?"
"It's very simple, because this group of ELS is not an enemy to him, and according to his personality, it is not that easy to attack." Cruze explained to Basak with a smile, and said, "Similarly, ELS did not regard him as an enemy, but just chased him based on instinct, wanting to integrate with him and communicate with him."
Basak said with a confused face, "Then just communicate directly. Why does it take so long?"
"He said that ELS is the next key to the advancement of his bloodline. There are still samples and individuals of ELS stored in the legion, but he has never touched those things once." Luo touched his chin and said, "He is not sure whether his bloodline will advance once the communication is started. You must know that the essence of ELS is fusion. Maybe the way to advance is to fuse ELS. How could he be willing."
"Um..." Basak was a little confused and didn't quite understand what Luo meant.
Looking at Basak's expression through the communication screen, everyone else shook their heads helplessly or rolled their eyes and gave up their intention to continue explaining to Basak.
In short, now everyone can see some of the reasons why Xiao Ran is unwilling to attack, and also knows the reasons why Xiao Ran resists communicating with ELS. However, perhaps because of being a bystander, everyone's thoughts are simpler and more thorough.
In fact, in Cruze's view, Xiao Ran shouldn't have any problem even if he chooses to communicate with these ELS. After all, they are just communicating with each other and not intending to merge. Can ELS still assimilate his body through spiritual transmission? If he could really achieve this, ELS would probably dominate the universe long ago, which means that just mental communication will not bring any changes to his body.
And Xiao Ran himself worried about more things and cared more about his body because he was in the game, so he fell into a misunderstanding for a while, or he was too nervous and his body would be assimilated and become a metal man like Setsuna in 00 World. He started to resist from the soul. He refused to have any contact with ELS, which meant that Xiao Ran deliberately ignored the fact that communicating with ELS would not affect his body. However, he knew in his heart that ELS was not an enemy, and was something very important to him. It was related to his future growth direction and the advancement of his bloodline, which also made him unable to deal with ELS at all.
So this is the real reason why he has fallen into this embarrassing situation. The first one to see this was Cruze, the second one was Luo, and Saki was the third one, but no one reminded Xiao Ran and Cruze think that Xiao Ran seems to be very funny the way he is now, but Luo thinks that Xiao Ran has an idea but is having a hard time making a choice.
As for Saki, she doesn't want Xiao Ran to fuse with ELS. Although she doesn't know what Xiao Ran will look like after the fusion, it should become as hard as ELS fused with other things, so she wants Xiao Ran is different from ELS. In order to advance bloodline, the only way is to merge with ELS. It is not impossible to find other ways. Even if Special Evaluation is used to advance in Prometheus, it is still the same.
But Xiao Ran never thought that the fusion of ELS is a perfect fusion, and the transformation of ELS is also a perfect transformation. If he and ELS fuse advanced bloodlines, he will not be able to keep his body in a human shape, with a human temperature, and a human feeling. After all, this is his body. After the bloodline is advanced, the body will still be his, and it is completely under his control.
Moreover, Prometheus will try his best to maintain his human appearance and hide his non-human side. The simplest thing is to add a color BUFF to him after he advances to become a metal man. From the appearance, there is no difference between him and other humans. On the contrary, it will make his body more powerful.
Of course, the most likely thing is that Xiao Ran cannot become Setsuna even if he has advanced bloodline. After all, Setsuna was originally integrated with the entire ELS group and the mother body of ELS. It is no longer a simple advancement but an essential change. Setsuna at that time was no longer the original Setsuna, but another new form of life that was not human. It was not pursuing self-power and control, but pursuing understanding and coexistence of two races, which was completely different from the purpose of Xiao Ran.
Xiao Ran What needs to be done now is actually very simple. Let ELS know that they can communicate and that they can coexist peacefully. This does not mean that they really have to be completely integrated with the mother body of ELS.
In the end, Naluo said in the communication, "Don't we need to remind him?"
"Well, it seems that this guy has gone into a misunderstanding. Isn't it quite interesting to see this guy still like this?" Cruze smiled and said, "But forget it now, we have more things to do next."
Cruze pressed a button behind him, and then said, "What are you doing? Does it feel fun to be chased all the time? As long as you communicate with them without letting ELS have physical contact with you, do you think that this will allow your bloodline to advance uncontrollably and transform? It is not difficult to communicate with the other party with your current ability. End this boring game quickly. We don't have much time to waste here."
Xiao Ran, who suddenly heard the voice of Cruze, was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses, shook his head and smiled, "I'm too over the top. You're right, just communication doesn't mean integration and advancement. Okay, next I will start to communicate with this group of ELS, and then I will rely on you for protection."
After saying this, Xiao Ran's eyes suddenly lit up. Dawn Tactical Armor, surrounded by ELS, instantly turned into countless light particles and disappeared directly. Then he appeared behind Cruze, Basak and others, and right behind Xiao Ran Setsuna, Cruze, Basak appeared from, Luo and others also surrounded Xiao Ran, and Xiao Ran also closed his eyes and prepared to communicate with ELS.
