Grafting, Behold!
What exactly happened?
Why are our hands hanging there?
The scene before them was hard to believe, but the arms hanging from the rafters were indeed theirs.
As if deliberately designed to make them recognizable, those arms not only possessed their own characteristics, but also wore sleeves or bracelets—all the details telling people: These are your arms, part of your body!
Everyone touched their arms simultaneously, but they were completely unharmed.
"This is really strange," You Fei said with an extremely sinister expression. "Te Pi, did you film this place before? Show me the footage."
Te Pi actually filmed it, and upon reviewing the footage, it became clear that the area where their arms were now was originally supposed to belong to the unknown Tarnished, but it had been seamlessly switched over.
"This is weird."
Fan En frowned and Saw Cleaver, wanting to cut off the arms to examine them more closely.
The sharp, serrated blade easily severed the ropes suspending "their arms," and also cut the ropes suspending the limbs of other creatures.
What's peculiar is that while the limbs of other creatures fall steadily to the ground, when it comes to "their arms," these things gradually wear away in mid-air and disappear completely before hitting the ground.
Looking up again, they were still hanging steadily on the roof beams!
"What's going on?"
Fan En tried a few more times, and each time the result was the same. While the other limbs were successfully attached, theirs remained hanging there, very firmly.
The group looked at each other, unsure how to handle the situation. Finally, Fan En spoke up:
"Won't Godrick reattach our limbs during the fight?"
People couldn't help but shudder; just imagining that scene was horrifying!
You Fei, however, thought about something deeper, such as, "Will he become stronger after he reattached my arm?"
To be fair, her hands are definitely much stronger than those of the likes of Wolf Head. If she can still retain her marksmanship after being taken over by Godrick, the scene is simply unimaginable!
"That's fine. If Godrick gets my arm back, he probably won't get stronger. He might even get weaker," Te Pi said nonchalantly.
Aide Jia stared at his arm without saying a word, seemingly lost in thought, his expression grim.
"Instead of just daydreaming here, I might as well go and take another look."
You Fei was also eager to verify the answer. The original plan was to honestly kill all the living creatures they could encounter along the way, but now everyone was a bit impatient, so they naturally stopped doing the fine work.
They rushed to the Fog Gate of Godrick as fast as they could and went in with trepidation.
"Those Tarnished from the limelight have quite the arrogance."
Godrick continued to deliver his fixed lines as he had at the beginning, which highlighted the difference between dungeon monsters and real living beings.
But the others had no time to care about these things. As soon as they came in, they looked at Godrick's body and counted his limbs one by one.
They only breathed a sigh of relief after they finished counting, because none of the limbs on Godrick's body belonged to them, at least not yet.
But that doesn't mean they can relax completely, because the best is yet to come!
Without the strange abilities granted by his limbs, Godrick was initially just a big guy who could use some storm-type Weapon Skill. He was even a bit top-heavy and his skill with Fast and Slow Blades was not as good as that of the Ominous Demon. His level of danger dropped sharply compared to before.
With their previous combat experience, the group was able to cope, though not with complete ease. However, their attacks were less effective against Godrick's thick skin.
As time shifted slightly backward, the same scene unfolded as before: soldiers once again charged into the battlefield carrying materials for limb reattachment.
There were fewer soldiers than last time, but the sheer number was still overwhelming, and the materials for limb repositioning they were holding were...
There were even the arms of adventurers!
"Are you serious?!"
Before anyone could stop them, they saw Godrick attach You Fei's arm to his body. The arm, covered in a gleaming armor, shimmered with a cold light, and after a few movements, it moved as freely as if it were the original!
Seeing this, You Fei had no doubt that if she gave Godrick a spear, he could wield it just as well as she could. Fortunately, Godrick didn't have a spear.
The next moment she saw the armor on "her" arm come to life, combining to form an unusual spear made entirely of armor!
You Fei paused, looked at her body, and thought to herself:
This ability can be used like this?!
Godrick charged forward wielding a spear, but his arm holding the spear was unusually flexible. You Fei felt as if she were fighting another version of herself. This feeling was very strange, and the strength of this arm was even greater than that of her original self!
Godrick then reattached Aide Jia's arm and Te Pi's leg.
The former did not allow him to unleash magic such as fireballs or waterballs; instead, it enhanced the power of the storms he released. The latter, however, further increased his speed, giving a subtle sense of increased speed when he ran.
So that's how it is. Limb grafting isn't just about attaching an arm; it's about selecting the most useful and developed limbs from a person for grafting! That's why Te Pi's arm wasn't chosen.
Even with just the arm attached to You Fei, Godrick was able to temporarily suppress You Fei in an instant. What if he were to attach the arm of someone even more powerful?
For example, the Sword Saint Gapar?
Just thinking about that scene makes me break out in a cold sweat!
While You Fei and her group were fighting Godrick, another group was also fighting Godrick.
They were all dressed in the same uniform and looked quite familiar. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be Prince Lan Le's bodyguards. They were the only team besides You Fei who had come into contact with Godrick.
The bodyguards displayed qualities far superior to those of ordinary adventurers. Each of them was a powerful Warrior, one in a million. While their individual abilities were naturally inferior to You Fei's, they had developed Combined Attack Technique that, when unleashed together, only amplified the damage.
With these techniques and having defeated every monster they could along the way, their challenge against Godrick wasn't particularly difficult. They had been locked in a long and drawn-out battle, both sides showing signs of exhaustion, and it was still unclear who would emerge victorious.
"Let's take him down in one fell swoop!" the bodyguard shouted, and everyone gathered their strength, preparing to launch an even more powerful attack.
Godrick's eyes flashed with malice as he prepared to cut off the arms and attach them to the dragon's head. Just then, several soldiers suddenly ran over carrying something that looked like several arms.
"How come I've never seen arms like this before?" The bodyguards found it very strange.
Some of their arms were covered in hair like werewolves, some were covered in carapaces like insects, and some had very strong thighs that looked very agile.
And the most crucial
"Pfft—"
A bodyguard was suddenly shot in the head, and the weapon that killed him was a long spear made of armor!
The arm that came from You Fei was also reattached by Godrick here!
After reattaching these limbs, Godrick's aura surged dramatically, becoming even more powerful and domineering. What in the world could possibly stand against him? A new, intense battle was about to erupt!
"Wait a minute, why does this arm's gunplay look so familiar?! I can't beat it!"
"What's going on with that werewolf-like hand? Why is Godrick it hit me?!"
"And that other hand has such high accuracy, it actually managed to block my retreat by throwing stones!"
Amidst screams, the bodyguards were caught completely off guard and wiped out!
They died without ever understanding where those damned arms came from.
At the same time, just as the bodyguards were wiped out, something unusual happened on You Fei's side as well.
Soldiers came running over carrying several arms they had never seen before, and these arms were wearing fairly uniform equipment.
Aide Jia glanced at them and froze. Why did those arms look so familiar? Having spent so much time with Prince Lan Le, there was no way he wouldn't recognize them.
Could it be that...?
"Stay away from those arms!" he immediately warned.
The Lobster Head is still there, why don't you tell us to move away? Everyone hesitated for a moment, but Godrick was faster at setting the limb.
However, the moment Godrick put his arms back on her body, these arms seemed to work together as if by telepathy, coordinating with You Fei's arms to disarm her unexpectedly!
The next moment, the bodyguards' arms began to move in a combined attack Weapon Skill, and together they unleashed a powerful Blood-Boiling Combination Skill!
With a loud "bang," You Fei, who had been hit head-on, was sent flying backward, her chest armor shattering and scattering into the air.
"You Fei!?"
Everyone was shocked, except for Godrick, who roared to the sky, seemingly overwhelmed by the power of the reattachment.
At this moment, everyone has only one thought in their minds:
That damn Godrick, where did he get all those limb-setting materials from?!
I'm really angry!
You Fei got up from the ground, her face contorted with anger. All her strength surged up at that moment, and her battle aura surged around her like a storm. She was about to unleash her strongest attack, determined to teach Godrick a lesson no matter what.
However, at that moment, an ominous sound rang out.
"Knock knock."
The bells rang to officially signal the closure of the dungeon.
"I'm not satisfied! I still have one move to make!"
Even though they were unwilling, the adventurers were still kicked out of the dungeon as streaks of light.
