Chapter 1723 Symbiotic Transformation
"See? My body has long been fused with dark energy. This isn't an awakened ability, it's a 'symbiotic transformation' we created."
"Symbiotic transformation?" Li Luo's pupils suddenly contracted, and his heart sank suddenly as if it was being gripped by an invisible hand.
She had never heard of this word before, but the word "transformation" alone made her feel an inexplicable chill.
Her eyes fell on the remaining dark blue scales on the mysterious man's arm. Looking at the black mucus that was constantly oozing out, she instantly guessed what was going on:
This is definitely not a normal awakening of superpowers.
Superpowers are the energy awakened by the human body, but the opponent's power seems to have "grown" out of the body. It is more like some kind of irrational experiment that forcibly implants the power of a living thing into the human body.
No wonder her copying ability has never been useful!
Li Luo suddenly realized that what she could copy were the normal superpowers awakened by humans.
But the opponent's power does not fall into this category at all. It is more like forcibly binding mutated animals, plants or zombies to the human body, becoming a kind of "symbiotic power of living things."
Before, she was still wondering why she couldn't even capture the energy fluctuations, but now she finally understood that she was fighting against a "half-human, half-monster" who had been forcibly implanted with the power of a living creature.
"That's right." The mysterious man lowered his sleeves, and the black energy condensed into several black thorns as thick as his arms. With a hissing sound, they shot towards Li Luo, at least twice as fast as before. The tips of the black thorns were even wriggling slightly, like the mouthparts of a mutant insect. "The power of the symbiote is the power of a living thing. It's alive, not a cold superpower. You can copy superpowers, but you can't copy the instincts of a living thing!"
The black thorns, carrying a foul smell, appeared before our eyes almost instantly.
Li Luo didn't have time to think about the details of "symbiotic transformation" before his body reacted and immediately mobilized his earth-based abilities.
The ground shook violently, and a half-meter-thick earth wall rose in front of her. Several muffled "bang bang bang" sounds exploded one after another. The black thorn pierced the earth wall fiercely. The tip penetrated the soil layer, but did not break through completely. It was stuck in the wall and continued to emit black smoke.
"Even if I can't copy it, I can still defeat you!" Li Luo shouted to cheer himself up. The supernatural power in his palm suddenly surged and quickly condensed into a half-meter-long lightsaber with a dazzling golden light.
She didn't stop and immediately mobilized her fire ability. The orange-red flames wrapped around the sword and the heat wave instantly dispelled the coldness around her.
The golden sword light mixed with the heat of flames drew a brilliant arc of light in the dim corridor, and with a whistling sound that broke through the wind, it slashed fiercely towards the mysterious man.
The mysterious man's face changed suddenly. He obviously didn't expect that she could use two superpowers at the same time while being shocked, and the connection was so smooth.
He didn't have time to think about it and quickly mobilized his water-based abilities.
A half-man-high wall of water suddenly rose in front of him, trying to extinguish the flames and block the lightsaber with the water flow.
However, the flame did not go out when it met water. Instead, it burned even more vigorously due to the force of the evaporation of water vapor. With a crisp "sizzle", the water wall was instantly evaporated by the flame into white mist, which filled the corridor.
The lightsaber's momentum remained undiminished, piercing through the fog and heading straight for the mysterious man's face.
At this critical moment, a burst of intense roars suddenly came from downstairs.
It was the creepy howl unique to zombies. The sound was getting closer and closer. One could even clearly hear the "crackling" sound of glass being shattered by footsteps and the harsh sound of zombies' nails scratching against the wall.
