《Metal Lich》Metal Lich chapter 21. Not everything smelled like roses.

With what the vision of the world changed, and I could see from my eye socket again
“Ding!”
"Congratulations you have owned a body; this body is level 0, your defense has risen to 5 points!" Misleplick said in my ear. I looked everywhere, but there was nobody around me which caused me to swallow saliva. Thinking that that bastard was watching me from somewhere.
“You have activated your passive ability Non newtoniano saliva!” My Omnivaiz Told me. which made me grow two salivary glands, a tongue that felt huge inside my mouth and muscles to control it. I took the tongue out of my mouth and it spread untild the place where my belly button should be. I started to think about where this ability came from and I remembered Ryu. I had learned it before I killed him.
Then this reminded me that I had also killed another creature, so I looked into my inventory and saw:
Inventory
Poker body in pieces
Queen Phone Bot
40 zombie bodies
50 kg wood pulp
25 kg metal chip
I touched the Poker body and saw that I had cut it into pieces. I did not know if it would be useful now, I decided to leave it there for now. In the other boxes, the rest looked useless at this time. But as the saying goes, one man's trash is another's treasure. Maybe right now I can't use it but who knows in the future.
I looked everywhere, and saw that I was in a small cell, the door was badly damaged, despite that it was still firmly in place, I could possibly go between the missing bars. In the corner there was a skeleton body, it seemed that they had abandoned it a long time ago. The interesting thing was that their clothes still looked intact despite being shreds and torn in some places. But seeing my body naked. It was not good to walk with the hotdog, and the eggs hanging out there.
“Wait!” I don't feel anything hanging from my crotch. Then I started to focus my mind on this area of my body and realized that there was nothing. I started to feel furiously my crotch. I wanted to cry, but I had no tears. When I built this body, it was a solution for my gas loss.
“Ghost in the Sheld!” I said. Nothing happened, it meant that I had created the spell to possess but not to dispossess, too bad I didn't do any more experiments with this spell.
“One more problem in the jar of problems to solve” I said.
I took the skeleton's clothes off, and a key fell from his body. The keys were shaped like a royal crown. The key had jewels inserted, who knows how the hell did he do to hide that valuable key on him. I decided to keep the key and his skeleton body in my inventory. My intention was to give him a holy grave. Then I equip the Clothes and it give me +2 defense.
I push my finger on the lock and activate my Geomancer skill:
“Click!” The lock open.
When I exit, the corridor had more closed cells infront of this one, I look to the right, at head level I saw a torch, at the end of the corridor it was dark, look to the left it was also dark at the distance. All the light came from the cage.

I decided to pick up the torch.
“Ding!”
"This item can be used as a weapon or a lamp do you want to equip it?" Yes or no.
“Yes!”
“Range 2 meters of light as a lamp, Melee or 5 meters long-range Energi Shot Damage: 5% of attack and strength. 100 pts light and duration” My Omnivaiz Told me. Apparently, the weapon get possession from the status Energi Shot. Or to be more exact it is channeled into this weapon. However, it can only channel 5% of my attack power and strength.
The torch transformed into a black large Lamp the length of my arm, more or less. He can emit a light where I direct it towards some direction, when I pressed a red butto and it had a switch to. When I pressed the red button, the light would go on for a second and lose a point of Energy shoot, but if I kept it, Iit lose several point of Energy shoots. If I press the switch It change to wepon mode. But instead of emitting light, it emitted lightning balls.
I looked once more inside the cell to see that I was not forgetting anything in the cell. It was when I saw jute covered and my old tail. I decided to pick up the tail first.
“Ding!”
"This item can be used as a weapon or reintegrate into your body. As a weapon it does 50 to 100% damage, or Reintegration it becomes a fifth limb in addition to giving you 50 agility points 10 smarter point.
If there were enemies to fight with, I would probably choose it as a weapon, but since that is not the case, I would integrate it into my body. My tail exploded in silver elements of light and then inserted into my body.
A few seconds later I felt a discomfort at the end of my back that started to itch.
“Aaaaaaa!” I felt a kick into my crotch. If someone could have seen me, they would have seen me in a fetal position while I grabbed the end of my back and where my hotdog was before.
“Paff! Paff” Something wet burst between my two legs, when I opened my pants, I saw that my Willy had returned. I so happy, that I was goin to shake it to welcome it, when I realized that my two eggs did not come in the package:
“Shit!” I said. I got up and started walking from one side to another while I thought that now I was no longer Eunuco … Suddenly I felt different, like it was something hanging, behind of me, so I looked back and saw a platinum demon tail, starting at the end of my spine.
I tried to grab it and it obeyed my thoughts. Approached to my hands, so that I could hold it, it was as smooth as a cat's tail. So, I check my status that said:

Looking at his condition he discovered two interesting anomalies:
“I am hungry!” Every 6 minutes I am losing a point of energy. My HP is Leak out every 5 minutes. I am losing 5 health points!” And I know this fact because my regeneration has 24 points. But it was also a good idea to integrate the tail. Being smarter is a good decision at all times of life.
“Look for the cover of my digital body, my jute bag, surely it was the last piece missing to solve the leak problem of my body. Most probably!” I thought.
I pick up my jute bag cover.
“Ding!”
“This item can be equipped as a mask with 10 different behaviors from which you can choose only one:
Demon's Mask: You can change your physical form or camouflage with the environment, +5 intelligence, +5 defense. However, your inner demons will take shape and have their own voice. Galvanizing chewing: You can convert any metal into a protective layer on your body, according to the metal you put on your body will be the value of defense, minimum +5 defense. Black Invader: Psionic Skills Pack, that the user has to discover and develop in order to become stronger and more powerful, + 10 intelligence. Chainsaw Mask: + 100 attack points, your mind is clouded, and a chainsaw comes out of all your extremities, turning you into a monster that only knows how to cut. Until there are no enemies, or your energy sources run out. The Fool’s mask: Increase the odds that things will go your way, +10 luck, -5 intelligence. Ghost Mask: allows you to walk through walls, +5 defense and +5 agility. Be careful not to enter the ghost area. BK mask absorbs energy from the environment, allowing you to eliminate the feeling of hunger for 6 hours, + 100 biomass. Cooling time 2 hours. Tsukuyomi Mask: Your powers evolved with the phases of the moon where the more moon you see the more powerful you will be. Void Masks: This allows you to create a weapon with the will of your soul, the stronger your soul, the stronger your weapon. Tengu Mask: When you reach 100% mental stress, it can create a new personality or switch to an existing one, + 50 points to a status.
…”
“Oh my God!” I said. There were too many ways to use. At the moment, I decided to put it in my inventory, I had to think which of all the mask modes was better. When I was looking for a space to put it, I saw an item that I had not seen before, this was the Queen Phone Bot. I took it out and in this same space I place the mask.
It was an old phone with two buttons, Touchpad and the touch screen. I don't know why, but if I check my memories regarding the meeting with the phone, it makes a lot of sense.
Anyway, I said to him:
“I know you're a robot, so show yourself!” But there was no reaction. Point my lamp at the cell in front of ours and shoot:
“Boom!” it really packs a punch. The cell door was deformed
“Boom!” I fired again and nothing.
Apparently, he had no intelligence of his own. Then I touch a button and the screen lit up with a blue background. He had 98% battery charge, then I see if he was connected to the network, but he was without a signal which meant that I had to get out of here to get a signal. Since I could not use the cell phone to communicate with anyone, I decided to keep it in a space near the mask and decided to try my new body.
First step is just warmups, run from one side to the other inside the small cell, then blows with the feet and with the hands in the air and finally some jumps sending punches in front of me.
“Taekwondo!” I Yell. Remember that when I was at school I used to run from my house to the gym in the city and when the lesson ended, we used to jump and throw fists while screaming at the top of our lungs this word.
“Ding!”
“Ding! You remembered 50 Megabytes from 60 Terabytes of your live memorys, you win + 5 Dexterity!” Remembering this made me very happy, as I discovered that when I jumped, I was very close to leaving through the hole where I had entered. However not everything smelled like roses. When I thought of an action, I lost a point of energy. When I moved, I lost a point of stamina and when I jumped, I lost a point of my state Light feather field. I also discovered that by equipping the lamp all Energy Shot points are empty. Although not exactly empty my regeneration status, 5 minutes ago, he regenerates 6 points to all my states. However, I was still losing life points and surely the mask was the solution. But I refused to choose to equip it, if my life was not in imminent danger, I take the half of my points of my regeneration and use it, into health.
So, my quick status said:
General Status:
Cursed +.
1 hungry, - 6 minute
Leak in -5 HP
Health point:
37/209 pts.
Energy Shot:
6/100 pts.
Mana point:
20/20 pts.
Force field
47/100 pts.
Light feather field
12/100 pts.
Energy:
15/19 pts.
Stamina:
7/19 pts.
Regeneration:
15/51 pts.
So looking at my life points I was losing 12 life points, while my defense prevented me from losing 7 life points. This new state of defense didn't seem like much, but It was defending myself from the curse. So all I had to do, was get some kind of armor, to balance things out. I still had to get something to eat, but with a little rest and my regeneration state, I could solve the problem of hunger I felt.
