Perhaps it was because of Shava’s identity, or maybe because Boil Gentleman had always been solitary in his modifications, eagerly anticipating sharing his achievements with others.
Thus, along the way, even without Angel asking, Boil Gentleman voluntarily explained the general overview of these creature modifications.
The core of Boil Gentleman’s creature modification lies in the Dynamo.
In the case of the Black and White Maids, the dynamo manifested as the heart; in this bone leopard, the dynamo was the glowing metal sphere within its abdominal skeleton.
Initially, to Angel, the dynamo seemed somewhat similar to a power source.
A power source is essentially the origin of the power sustaining extraordinary efficiency.
For instance, if an alchemy tool suddenly loses its intended effect, generally, there are two reasons: either the tool itself is damaged, or the power source sustaining the tool’s effect has been exhausted.
This concept of a power source is somewhat like a battery, its existence is to enable the activation, replenishment, or continuation of a certain functionality.
Typically, the power sources used by most wizards are magic crystals.
And the dynamo, it somewhat embodies the essence of magic crystals. By burning the dynamo, continuous energy can be supplied to the bone leopard. So, in Angel’s view, in terms of energy output, the dynamo and power source are quite similar.
However, as Boil Gentleman explained more about the dynamo, Angel noticed some distinct differences. The dynamo’s subjects are all living beings.
Whereas the power source’s subjects are basically non-living. Even the flesh puppets crafted by mechanical alchemist wizards, powered by a power source at their core, are only half-mechanical and cannot be fully classified as living beings.
Moreover, when the energy from a power source is supplied to a living being, a medium for conversion is necessary.
For example, all wizards know that magic crystals contain active energy, but no wizard would choose to directly absorb energy from a magic crystal, as the energy in the crystals is incompatible with their own energy systems and is impure. Only through certain special mediums, expelling the impurities from the energy, can it be applied to oneself.
However, the energy output from the dynamo directly enters the living being, participating in its internal energy circulation. This aspect is something far beyond what a power source can compare to!
After hearing Boil Gentleman’s summary of the dynamo, Angel’s eyes sparkled with bright light.
Without a doubt! If this atypical power source, the dynamo, could be mastered by wizards, it could not only change the current wizards’ forms of energy utilization but might even alter the methods of cultivation!
Perhaps, it would be possible to directly extract energy from the dynamo for cultivation, achieving rapid advancement!
The more Angel thought about it, the more he found the dynamo useful, and his curiosity about it reached its peak.
Boil Gentleman, seldom acknowledged for his technical prowess, and now affirmed by the esteemed Shava, grew increasingly excited, almost wishing he could immediately display his various dynamos.
However, eager as he might be to showcase his accomplishments, he first had to return to the modification laboratory.
And the Maze of Mystlight Candles Corridor is an extremely long labyrinth. Even though Boil Gentleman is very familiar with its routes, quickly returning to the modification laboratory still requires some time.
While en route to Boil Gentleman’s modification laboratory, Angel observed the Maze of Mystlight Candles Corridor. Here, various modified creatures would occasionally appear, not just black panthers, but also many strangely shaped forms, even including a void slug almost occupying the entire corridor space, like a python, with no end in sight.
These are creatures Boil Gentleman captured from the void, left behind in the Maze of Mystlight Candles Corridor. Should any outsider intrude, they would become the first line of defense.
Apart from modifying monsters, the Maze of Mystlight Candles Corridor occasionally had some doors. Some of these doors were disguised as monster mouths; entering them was like entering the belly of a beast. Others were actual rooms in the corridor, but they weren’t entirely safe either, containing revived magic creature statues and enigmatic creatures living within paintings.
However, for Angel, these magic creature statues and enigmatic creatures were relatively safe. As beings of the Nightmare Plane, they were naturally suppressed by the identity of Shava and didn’t react to Angel as they would to modified monsters.
After following Boil Gentleman through more than twenty corridors, taking nearly half an hour, they finally stopped at an unassuming door.
“This is my modification laboratory,” Boil Gentleman indicated.
Hearing this, Angel nodded calmly, but internally he sighed at the complexity of the Maze of Mystlight Candles. Even with Boil Gentleman’s guidance, it had taken so long. If the wizards from Savage Grottoes were to invade, they’d likely be lost forever in this endless maze.
Boil Gentleman opened the door, revealing a dark passage.
Just as Angel was about to follow, he suddenly smelled a pungent odor.
The smell came from the left. Looking that way, Angel saw a corner not far off, lit by candlelight, casting a sinister shadow behind it.
The light stretched the shadow long, giving it an ominous look.
Boil Gentleman noticed Angel’s gaze and casually explained, “In that corridor lives a Seed of Distortion’s mother, controlling the Nightmare creatures in the outer Black Dream Tunnel.”
Seed of Distortion’s mother? And the nightmare creatures of the Black Dream Tunnel?
Angel suddenly realized something. Were these Nightmare creatures the same as the ones he had encountered in the ruins with his mentor and Lord Rhine?
If they were the same creatures that lurked in the darkness, did it mean…
“Is that the exit to the half-plane?” Angel asked, trying to maintain composure.
Without suspicion, Boil Gentleman nodded. “Yes, it’s not far from the exit of Heart Sigh.”
Indeed! It was really the exit!
Angel’s heart raced. Since being dragged into the Doreen Flower Garden, he had been looking for a way out of these ruins. Now, the exit was just a few steps away!
Angel wanted to leave immediately, but knew he had to be patient. He was still playing the role of Shava and had to continue following the script…
He had mentioned at the dinner his interest in the Seed of Distortion, so now, even if he wanted to leave, he should first accompany Boil Gentleman to see the Seed of Distortion.
At least to keep up appearances.
With this thought, Angel masked the urgency in his eyes and said indifferently, “I am quite interested in the Seed of Distortion. Since it’s the mother of the Seed, may I take a look?”
