Chapter 518
Lu Li didn't pay much attention to it. His secondary brain was constantly reminding him that the position of the Lord of Twistedness was a sugar-coated bullet. His thinking had been distorted by Doros, and he had to connect with his other Avatar at all times to prevent himself from being led astray by Doros.
It's fine for the other Avatar to maintain contact with Lu Li, but the problem is that Lu Li himself won't be able to stand it. After all, he is still human, and if he maintains contact with other Avatar for a long time, he will be corrupted by Avatar and lose his potential for growth.
Therefore, the other Avatar, with Angriel as the main one, are the secondary brains that Lu Li reshaped. These secondary brains have the function of assisting Lu Li in thinking. If Lu Li's thinking goes seriously astray under the guidance, the secondary brain will correct it.
"On the surface Doros has given up the position of Twisted Lord, but in reality, he's probably plotting against the Snake People and Yellow Skin, hoping to take on two or even three at once?" Lu Li calculated Doros's plan. "The Snake People and Yellow Skin should have noticed this, but I don't know if they're planning to take advantage of the situation and throw the bullet back at us, or if they have other plans?"
"And twisted artifacts." Lu Li seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly felt that this world was probably about to become a small battlefield. "It seems that the war in the main world is not far away. So many people are eyeing a world that is close to the main world."
Before long, Fang Yi arrived with five blank-faced creatures, including two low-infected and three Secondary Infected. Judging from their dazed appearance, they had probably been hypnotized by mental energy. Lu Li's stomach twitched. Although he had cast the Death-Date Immortal Body Before Death spell on himself, ensuring he would not die before his death, he still retained all his normal sensations.
He stayed inside the egg for three days, his body gradually becoming thin and bony. More importantly, consuming food with infectious properties would further intensify Doros's distortion of him. Therefore, he had no choice but to find other food.
Under Lu Li's control, the hair from the Painbearer's Garment spread, enveloping a low-level infected person. The hair pierced his skin, absorbing his blood, and through the Painbearer's Garment, Extraction life force from this blood, filtering out the twisted power and leaving behind relatively pure life force.
Of course, even relatively pure life force will still contain a certain amount of distortion power, but there's nothing that can be done about it. His current abilities can only remove the distortion power to this extent.
Life force surged into Lu Li's body, and those slight twisted forces instantly detached and Integration the unknown. Lu Li felt that he had lost a little bit of his rationality again. Lu Li's body also quickly became fuller, and his physical health made Lu Li mind much more active, and his inspiration began to leap again.
The low-level infected person, whose blood had been drained, let out a wail as his body began to mutate. His skin slowly turned gray, and he stared at Lu Li with Hatred in his eyes. After swaying twice, he died.
Having eaten about half full, Lu Li inserted the hair into another person's body. After careful examination, he discovered that even low-level infected individuals were different; some leaned towards Doros, while others leaned towards Snake People and Yellow Skin.
Although the twisting power inside still affected him, it wasn't as severe as what happened to Doros, making Lu Li feel like he was drinking poison to quench his thirst.
"I'm racing against time. The longer I stay here, the more polluted I become. Environmental factors like the air, food, gravity, and temperature are all gradually transmitting distorting power." Lu Li pondered his way out, "I must increase my strength as quickly as possible to make the distorting power have a greater impact on me."
"We must at least hold out until Gresta arrives!" Lu Li thought to himself. Gresta was far away, and there were all sorts of hidden dangers in the endless void. He didn't know when Gresta would be able to get here.
"Perhaps I can try to Integration my body and see if I can absorb the Twisted Power into it..." Lu Li thought of a solution, but then his sub-brain started to sound the alarm, saying that Integration the Twisted Object was basically tantamount to suicide.
"Let's continue researching techniques to detach from the power of distortion step by step. At least we need to reduce the amount of distortion power we absorb first." Lu Li squinted as he examined Fang Yi was standing with his head down, too afraid to move. "We also need to think about how to strengthen him."
Lu Li then moved into the laboratory converted from a warehouse and began conducting various experiments. The No. 3 Settlement gradually began to allocate resources to Lu Li. Wu Donglin held the black sphere in his hand, his expression complex.
This sphere was the one that Lu Li had Fang Yi bring to Wu Donglin. The raw material was the Twisted Core of the big cat from before. Combining the information Wu Donglin revealed that day with his own research, Lu Li modified the Twisted Core.
"This thing is starting to approach the level of a Twisted Wonder." Holding the Twisted Core, Wu Donglin's first feeling was not ecstasy, but killing intent. Lu Li's research ability was simply too terrifying, making him feel that things were out of control.
However, Wu Donglin then put aside his killing intent. He still had some tolerance. Although Lu Li was dangerous, if he could control him, he would be an opportunity to unify the major settlements around Min'an City. With that thing, he might actually have a chance to get there. Following his intuition and sensing that enormous power, Wu Donglin closed his eyes again.
"A man-made twisted artifact also needs a twisted artifact as a reference, but obviously, a twisted artifact won't be handed over to me easily." Lu Li sat in his chair, looking at the pulsating Twisted Core in the cultivation tank.
The Twisted Core modified by Lu Li can indeed parasitize human bodies, giving them the ability to absorb twisted power. Furthermore, the Twisted Core can release twisted power to strengthen the parasite, granting it various supernatural abilities.
"However, compared to a true twisted artifact, the difference lies in that qualitative leap."
The Correctors could initially absorb the power of distortion, but they were not particularly powerful themselves. At most, they were just a little stronger and more energetic, and they were even weaker than the parasites of the Twisted Core.
However, once they absorb enough of the twisted power and undergo a qualitative change, their strength will develop by leaps and bounds. Not only will they gain various superpowers, but they will also awaken a unique ability that is unique to them, which can be described as a meteoric rise.
"So if we want to study the changes here, we still need to study the real twisted artifacts." Lu Li thought to himself, and then he heard a commotion outside.
"Help! Someone's trying to molest a snake! Hey, girl, let go! I'm not an eel, I'm a snake!!" Lu Li opened the door and saw Fang Yi leading a towering woman to the laboratory entrance, with the woman holding a gray snake in her hand.
