"Is it enough? This Uncorrodable Ice is only First Energy Level material..." For original chapters go to novel•fire.net
Yisen stepped forward to help Ian collect the Uncorrodable Ice—since Ian was currently in Soul Body state and needed to use Origin Quality to affect matter: "Once we return to World Tree City, how do you plan on crafting the artificial body? Did you manage to keep any of the bloodline hierarchy of your previous body?"
"Of course not." With Yisen assisting, Ian naturally felt at ease and used his soul to affect matter with much less efficiency. "However, I do have quite formidable materials stored in World Tree City..."
As Ian said this, an image of a sealed box and the fragments of the ’Lifeladder Tree’ within flashed through his mind.
The young man smiled and said, "Coincidentally, I plan to hide it, crafting it into the core of the artificial body to carry around—it’s the best kind of concealment."
"As for the Uncorrodable Ice, it’s indeed not enough, but enough to operate at least—besides, theoretically, I’m supposed to be severely injured now..."
At this moment, Sio and Anfa also came to help, extracting a human-sized chunk of Uncorrodable Ice from the ice wall of the Dragon Nest.
Everyone shaped the Uncorrodable Ice into the form of a human, and Ian’s soul stood before this icy figure and slowly fused into it.
Even though it looked very much like Ultraman possessing someone, the effect was indeed like Ultraman possession; however, Ian wasn’t involved in a fatal traffic accident causing a human death.jpg.
Soon, as the Silver Chip spread throughout, it filled all corners of the Uncorrodable Ice figure, and the Fairy’s Origin Structure began to connect, Ian’s soul started formally taking control of it all.
There’s no denying, special thanks to the unique trait of Fairy Bloodline—the Fae use these materials to form their own carapaces, so Ian crafting a body using Uncorrodable Ice essentially mimicked the behavior of a Fae switching bodies, albeit a rather large one.
As details started appearing on the icy figure and its features began to resemble Ian, he spoke, "If you don’t mind, could you give me a little blood? I need some biological material to mask this carapace’s non-flesh nature."
"Okay." "No problem!" "Sure."
As soon as Ian spoke, Yisen, Sio, and Anfa stepped forward simultaneously, readily pulling out weapons from their waist or sides, even preparing to scratch their blood vessels with their fingernails: "How much do you need?" *3
"Ah..." "This..." "Hmm..."
The three noticed each other’s actions, suddenly froze in place, and after waiting for a while, saw no one retreating, causing the atmosphere to become awkward.
Ian waited for quite a while, noticing the other three were still stuck in place, he looked up somewhat helplessly, "There’s no need for formality, this is helping me, it prevents excessive blood loss if each of you gives me a little. I’m only disguising my aura."
"Understood..." "So that’s the case!" "Alright..."
With a rather complex feeling, each of the three drew a cup of their own blood.
Ian poured this blood onto his hand, as a layer of mimetic ice repeatedly simulated, skin appeared incredibly similar to Humans, yet carried a transparent quality typical of Fae, faintly exuding an extremely complex dragon-related Bloodline aura.
Simultaneously, clothing began forming, covering all the skin. These clothes even had damage that matched the marks left by the previous ’Ian’ during battle.
Buzz, buzz, as Ian lightly shook his head, shaking off the useless ice chips from his long hair, once again having ’flesh and blood’, a material entity Ian was born!
Ian looked at his hand, seemed overly pale but otherwise fine, so he spun around for his friends to see, "Any flaws?"
"Ah, I think it’s great." "Wow, even more fairy-like than before!" "Perfect. It’s truly perfect."
After a delay, the three finally clapped sparsely, with Anfa somewhat hesitantly saying, "Although from the surface you look identical to Humans now... yet if someone really gets close enough to inspect, they might still feel you are very cold..."
"That’s okay, I was originally of Ice Fairy Bloodline." Ian shrugged and smiled, "Simply say I’m hurt and can’t control my powers."
"Let’s go, I think the rescue team should be arriving soon, we ought to leave the ruins."
The four began tidying up traces within the Dragon Nest, although Ian was confident that under his ’permissions’, no one could explore the Ice Dragon’s Nest, but being well-prepared was still his habit.
Before leaving, Ian took one last look at the Ice Dragon’s Nest.
Mumbling softly, memories of the Great Snow Peak within Bison Mountain Range and the reason the King of the Mountain was drawn away by Fiery Flame Land surfaced in Ian’s mind: "Seems like there are still plenty of secrets in the Bison Mountain Range waiting for my exploration."
With a smile, Ian turned.
Accompanied by spatial fluctuations, he and his friends departed from this place.
