《fall into darkness》Chapter 22: Biochemical Transformation
Advertisement
Du Di'an slowly opened his eyes, and through the dim light of the fire, he saw the rickety old man with his back to him, dragging him towards the darkness ahead.
His eyes flickered slightly, and he gave up the idea of sneak attack. Sand hitting the opponent's back would not have any attack effect, but would lose the only chance for sneak attack. At this moment, he had been dragged two or three meters away and could not be caught. The stones by the fire pit, and even if they can be caught, the stones by the fire pit are so hot that they must be thrown instantly as before, otherwise they have to burn their palms.
"Can't go to his nest." Du Di'an knew that he was facing great danger at the moment, and his mind was spinning rapidly. Before entering the other's nest, he must find a way to escape. After all, no one knows how many people there are in the other's nest. This one is in front of him. He can't handle it. If he is brought into the old nest, he can only be reduced to fish and meat on the anvil, and he can be slaughtered!
At this time, the rickety old man dragged Du Dian to the place where Macon was going to pee, and bent down to pick up the dagger that fell on the ground.
Du Di was overjoyed, his eyes fell on the stone he threw next to him, and he quietly reached out to touch it. The stone's thermal insulation effect was average. Although it was still hot at the moment, he could barely endure it. He grabbed the stone and looked at the rickety old man. The back of his head, he violently exerted force on his abdomen, raised his upper body strength, and threw it fiercely.
With a bang, the stone did not hit the back of his head, but on his back. After all, he was lying down. Although the distance was extremely close, the angle was still deviated.
Du Di'an's face was ugly, but he didn't have time to be annoyed. He hurriedly kicked the soles of his feet and broke away the other's palm.
The rickety old man was hit in the back, screamed in pain, and almost stumbled. He looked back and immediately saw Du Di'an getting up and running away. He didn't expect that he would be planted on a child twice in a row, so annoyed. His chest was about to explode with anger, and he said savagely, "I'm going to kill you!!" He raised his hand and waved, and an incredible scene appeared. I saw a very long black shadow suddenly shot out of his large sleeve robe.

With a bang, it hit Du Dian on the back.
Du Dian immediately fell to the ground, and there was a piercing pain on his back. The pain made him almost faint, but his heart was at a loss. At his own speed, the other party should not catch up so quickly.
He reluctantly looked back, his pupils suddenly tightened.
He saw a scene that was completely beyond his imagination. He saw that from the sleeves of the rickety old man, a snake-like touch was stretched out. It was about the thickness of a baby's wrist and three or four meters long. It completely opened his black cuffs. Under the flickering firelight, Du Dian could see it very clearly. The root of the touch body was connected to the other party's shoulder!
The most terrifying thing was that there were blood-red veins on the rickety old man's withered arm, just like blood vessels bulging on the surface of the skin, full of strangeness and hideousness.
This made Du Di'an's mind unable to help but have four words: "Biochemical transformation!"
Born in a scientific family, Du Dian knows that biochemical transformation is real, but in the old days, it was a taboo experiment, and any biochemical human experiment was illegal. It only appeared during World War II, when it was used as a weapon of war.
These are what he said when his father and his sister were chatting. He didn't expect to see this incredible scene in a world where technology has not yet entered the age of steam!
Kaka!
When Du Di'an was shocked, the rickety old man groaned in pain. The base of the contact body on his right arm grew abruptly by a few centimeters. A little dry again.
The rickety old man gritted his teeth, stared at Du Di'an, and said sternly: "Little devil, I won't kill you so easily, I will cut you open bit by bit and become my experiment!" Step by step towards Du Dian, and the touch on his arm twisted into the cuffs along his shoulders and entered his large black robe. If the sleeves were not broken, looking from the outside, there was no Not the slightest bit different.
Du Dian's face was pale, and at this moment he naturally knew that this was by no means a test for scavengers, but a real danger. He wanted to get up, but the severe pain in his back made him unable to stand up, and the rickety old man took out the Green fog, although he tried his best to hold his breath, but after a long time, he still smelled a little bit, just smelling a little odor, he felt his limbs go weak.

"Do you still want to run?" The rickety old man looked at him hideously, grabbed with a big hand, grabbed Du Di'an's hair, and dragged him away.
Du Di'an held his wrist tightly in pain, and it didn't take long for the rickety old man to stop suddenly, and the surroundings were dark, but with the faint starlight in the sky, Du Di'an saw a deep pit here.
"Go in!" The rickety old man kicked Du Di'an.
Du Di'an rolled down suddenly, and felt that he hit the stairs along the way. His back, wrists, and arms were in great pain when they bumped on the stairs. He rolled about seven or eight meters to the end. Dim yellow light, this is an underground secret room.
At this time, the rickety old man climbed down the vertical ladder.
Du Di'an looked up, but there was a wooden board above the wooden ladder, which sealed the hole above. He suddenly knew why he met this rickety old man in this vast desert. It turned out to be the shelter he chose, and it happened to be not far from the place where the rickety old man lived. Most of the time, when they were here during the day, they were already alarmed by this rickety old man. old man.
He smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking about it too, the desert plants here are dense, and it is the place with the most abundant water sources nearby, which is indeed suitable as a shelter.
After the rickety old man went down the stairs, he ignored Du Dian, but quickly came to a workbench not far away, and took out a small bottle from the drawer inside, which contained scarlet pills, he poured out a few, One mouthful, pour hot water from a metal bottle next to it and drink it.
Du Di'an couldn't help looking at the underground room, and immediately saw something that made his face ugly. On the cabinets next to him, there were some large glass bottles with some terrifying things soaked in them, some were human palms, and some were women's heads. , and there are the lobes and the heart.
"Little devil, don't look, I'll find you a big container later and put you in it." The rickety old man noticed Du Di'an's eyes and said sullenly.
Du Di'an looked ugly and said, "You are the one who sold your soul to the devil as the Holy See said?"
The rickety old man sneered and said, "Devil? The Holy See of Light will only use the creator and the devil to fool the world. When I finish the experiment, I will be the creator!"
"What experiment?" Du Dian asked. Naturally, he didn't really have the mind to care about this, but wanted to use his words to buy some time, wait for his physical strength to recover a little, and then find a way to get out.
The ricketed old man sneered: "You don't understand, the poor foolish people enslaved by the Holy See of Light, when I take a rest, I will send you to see your God of Light, don't try to leave, do you see this?" , took out an object from the drawer, it was actually a small crossbow.
Du Di'an's face changed, his heart froze, but he did not give up, gritted his teeth and said: "What is the creator, it is ridiculous to use this kind of thing to kill people!"
"Hmph, how can you understand the wisdom of the Creator." The rickety old man sneered, "The great alchemy will forge immortality. You are honored to be the material in my experiment."
"Alchemy?" Du Dian was startled.
When watching the super chip, he happened to see some introductions to "alchemy". It can be said that this is the early prototype of chemistry, originated in Egypt, mainly to convert base metals into gold. Once there is an alchemy who can do it At this point, he will immediately become a national treasure-level figure who can call the wind and call the rain.
The ultimate goal of alchemy is to create the "Sage's Stone", which is said to be a treasure that can make people immortal!
In history, there have been many great figures who were involved in the practice of alchemy, including the famous physicist Newton, who was an alchemy enthusiast.
"Are you an alchemist?" Du Dian looked at the rickety old man in surprise, "Isn't alchemy making gold?"
The rickety old man narrowed his eyes and said, "I didn't expect you to know quite a lot, but our alchemy is divided into two groups, one is to study basic substances, to create "Sage's Stone", and to try to live forever. The other group is like me, who study living matter, create "life", and become the creator! "

The Depths of Magic
Synopsis It's the year 2052 and the release of the new next-generation full-dive VRMMO game called The Depths of Magic is hitting the world by storm. The game's technology will surpass all other games before it and shock the masses. Hector who goes by the name Locke inside the game is an experienced player of the genre. He is looking to continue his goal of enjoying gaming as well as the competition that goes along with competing for the top ranking spots. Novel Summary The Depths of Magic is a LitRPG novel focused on a Fantasy VRMMO setting. This is not a harem novel. In-Game systems The Depths of Magic features state-of-the-art technology never before seen in Hector's world. The key system the novel will bring up often is the Second Brain. The Second Brain system is more like a guidance AI for the players in the game that acts as if you had a second brain assisting your every action. How much guidance this AI will give is based on its experience or mastery skills a player will receive in the game. The guidance is seamless to a point where a player won't even realize they are being assisted, it's will feel like what they are doing is something they could always do. However, once they leave the game it will become quite apparent that they were receiving heavy guidance. The purpose of this system in a writing sense is to explain why a player can realistically become more powerful, more agile, or more skilled than they would otherwise be able to as a human. To give an example if someone could move faster than a bullet, how would a normal human brain be able to perceive and control this movement properly. Or how could a player who has never held a sword before become as experienced as someone who has trained with the sword all their lives? The magic system will be another focus of this novel. I don't want to spoil anything here but it should be an interesting one. The hope is that the system I have made will spark discussion between the readers on what combinations will do what. I already have most of it, but it will be fun to read as the author. Side notes My general focus for this novel is to attempt to make the in-game systems make sense. To give a vague example I have read a lot of novels of this genre and some have the habit of just creating such powerful items that it just breaks the system, and somehow the MC keeps finding challenging situations even with those items. What tends to happen when I read a novel like this I just ignore the stats of the items he is getting because the numbers don't even matter anymore. Release schedule: The chapter release schedule due to real-life complications is to release as I write them. Patreon setup: 1 chapter early release/discord access. Free content up to the current chapter includes an excel sheet that contains Locke's current stats at the end of the chapter. This is extra information for those that are interested.

Simply put, it was convenient in various way and I also loved the art. From my understanding is is from a collaboration between artists Chocobikies and Pinlin. Here is a link to where I found the original http://pinlin.deviantart.com/art/Linked-456655669
