Warlock Apprentice - Chapter 2076 - 2077: Transformation Laboratory

Chapter 2076: Chapter 2077: Transformation Laboratory

The Boiling Gentleman: “There is no problem if Lady Shava wants to see it, but the mother body of the Seed of Distortion has already entered the decay phase. In the transformation laboratory, there is a perfect specimen in its prime.”

A decay phase, a perfect specimen, without a doubt, the perfect specimen is more worthy of study.

Since the Boiling Gentleman said so, Angel did not insist further, nodded, and followed the Boiling Gentleman into the open door.

From the hallway, the inside of the door was pure darkness, nothing could be seen.

But when he entered, he found it entirely different from the outside.

Not only was it very bright, but also very spacious.

The space in view was about the same size as the hall of Misty Goldlady’s castle, and there were numerous passageways and doors here; the space behind these passages might be even larger.

The style of the room also surprised Angel.

Everywhere were chains, gears, and delicate parts, along with iron pipes leading who knows where. At a glance, it looked somewhat like the laboratory of a Mechanical Alchemist, but it was more complex, with more parts. Even beneath the floor on which one stepped, the faint sound of parts operating could be heard, as if he had traversed from a secretive Nightmare Realm into a steampunk world.

While Angel was observing his surroundings, the Boiling Gentleman quickly strode into the laboratory covered with all sorts of pipes.

Angel watched as the Boiling Gentleman took off his hat, hanging it on an abandoned exhaust port on the iron pipe, and walked excitedly towards a sunken pool filled with glowing green.

“This is the melting pool of the Power Furnace! Ah, ah, look at this, such a beautiful Light Solvent. I can’t wait to demonstrate the newly reborn Power Furnace to Lady Shava!”

Angel couldn’t see the Boiling Gentleman’s expression, but from his excited words, he could sense his fervent mood at the moment.

Angel hesitated for a moment but still walked into the transformation laboratory filled with various small parts.

Moving even faster than him was the Dalmatian puppy; it seemed very familiar with the environment, dodging gears and operating pipes with ease.

However, the Dalmatian did not head towards the melting pool but ran around in the transformation laboratory like it was playing.

Angel initially wanted to remind it to be careful, but after thinking about it, he decided against it. The Dalmatian was the first weapon under the Minister of Arms, even if the entire transformation laboratory exploded, the Dalmatian probably wouldn’t be impacted.

With this in mind, Angel let the Dalmatian be and walked towards the Boiling Gentleman.

But before he could reach the Boiling Gentleman, he heard the Dalmatian barking in the distance. Turning his head, Angel saw the Dalmatian standing on a vibrating iron pipe, barking towards something beyond the pipe.

As Angel was feeling puzzled, a long, tentacle covered in suction cups slowly emerged from behind the pipe.

Once the tentacle appeared, it launched an attack on the Dalmatian.

Like a sharp arrow, it quickly stabbed towards the Dalmatian’s head.

Although the tentacle was fast, the Dalmatian was faster. Before the attack could reach, the Dalmatian had disappeared from the attack range the next second.

Seeing the first attack fail, three more swaying tentacles reached out from different directions to assault the Dalmatian.

However, it was still futile. The speed of the Dalmatian… even Angel, if he activated the Gravity Meridian, would be humbled.

The Dalmatian could evade the tentacles’ attacks, but it did not counterattack, seemingly playing along with the tentacles.

“Oh, it’s the Seed of Distortion locked in cage number 3.” The Boiling Gentleman arrived at the scene of the showdown between the Dalmatian and the tentacles, glanced behind the pipe: “Able to penetrate the shield outside the cage, it seems this Seed of Distortion has reached maturity.”

The Boiling Gentleman extended an invisible hand and caught a cage from behind the pipe.

As he said, inside the iron cage was a Seed of Distortion, its size similar to the one Angel saw in the Dark Dream Tunnel, albeit slightly smaller.

This Seed of Distortion was energetically extending its tentacles out of the cage, trying to capture the Dalmatian. Yet it had no response to the Boiling Gentleman who held it.

The Boiling Gentleman reached into the cage, stroking the seed’s spherical core, muttering, “You’re still young, not mature yet, stop thinking about possession.”

“Moreover, even if you want to possess, don’t choose this dog. Later, I’ll check the net in the Void to see if we’ve caught any magical creatures.”

After the Boiling Gentleman spoke, the Seed of Distortion seemed to understand his meaning, slowly retracting its tentacles back into the cage.

Afterward, the Boiling Gentleman placed the cage with the Seed of Distortion back to its original spot. While it seemed like a dispute was resolved, the Dalmatian looked somewhat forlorn, seemingly preferring the playful tentacles to the now well-behaved Seed of Distortion.

Once the Boiling Gentleman dealt with the Seed of Distortion, he walked over to Angel.

“This Seed of Distortion was birthed from the perfect mother body of the Seed of Distortion I mentioned earlier, reaching the half-mature phase in less than five days. It might reach full maturity in just a day.”

“If it were the mother body of the Seed of Distortion from the outer corridor, it would take half a month for its offspring to reach the half-mature phase. After all, it has already entered the decay phase.”

After explaining, the Boiling Gentleman asked if Angel wanted to see the mother body of the Seed of Distortion first or the Power Furnace.

Angel was indifferent about it, but since the melting pool where the Power Furnace was happened to be nearby, he chose the Power Furnace first.

When they reached the melting pool, Angel noticed it was a circular metal pit with a diameter of about ten meters, filled with a large amount of glowing green solvent.

The glowing solvent was bubbling continuously, suggesting there was scorching heat beneath.

However, despite the bubbling, there was no smell. Presumably, the deodorizing exhaust on the pit wall diverted the odor away.

Angel didn’t know what these glowing solvents were. Even opening the Eye of Nalda showed no clues. This meant the data emerging from the “server” in the Mind Space was entirely question marks.

Situations with no clues like this had become rare with Angel’s range of studies.

If it were outside, Angel would have been astonished and begun researching by now.

But considering this was an extension of the Nightmare Realm, any peculiarities encountered here could somehow be explained. So Angel didn’t delve deeply into the solvents’ secrets, trusting the Boiling Gentleman would provide an explanation.

From the Boiling Gentleman’s excited emotions, it was evident the secret of the Power Furnace might be hidden within this green solvent.
