Chapter 175 The Birth Of Biological Golem
In truth, section 3 that Zick was in just a while ago was just a fake lab. It was to fool the people who came to invade it in the future.
That was the reason, the genie without any hesitation prepared to self-destruct at once. The real lab was named silver wing, it was hidden even deeper underground, and myriads of golems would come to attack the people invading it instantly.
Zick had come to section 3 to gain control of the whole silver wing system.
In the novel, Aeiron discovered this fact after getting control of the lab. The old alchemy tower was very cautious, they even prepared to give up so many of their research center in case someone strong broke into the lab.
It was a decisive move, this showed their fortitude regarding the research deep below the ground.
Opening his eyes, Zick found himself in a dark room, the magic circle below his feet glowed dimly. With the sound of a machine activating, the light around the room glowed brightly.
The whole room was in shambles, weird devices were spread all over the room. In the middle of the room, a huge round object was placed upright.
Looking at the capsule in the middle, Zick couldn't help but feel the excitement boiling deep within his heart.
Zick waved his hand, lightly speaking: "Silver wing system, prepare to offer the tribute to experiment code-named — bio golem construction!"
At once transparent blue screens appeared around Zick and started executing his command. He was already accepted as the master of this place by the system, so there was no big deal in commanding it. He had already put the round device back in his space ring, so there was no need to worry about someone snatching it too.
At once the round device before Zick started changing with a loud noise. The round device opened in three sections with red gas leaking from it.
The content within the round device entered Zick and Levienel's sight. It was a huge capsule with a figure of the fetus flowing in the red liquid.
This fetus was not like a normal human fetus. There was a red gem in the middle and it and a red line spread to every part of it.
A tinge of frenzied mana was being leaked by the fetus. Seeing this, even Levienel was surprised.
"An artificial life form?" She asked lightly.
"Yes, an artificial life form or you can call it a living golem too," Zick spoke leisurely.
"Please bring the slaves that we left behind in that organization's base." Zick looked at Levienel with a smile.
Levienel started preparing the teleportation circle after hearing Zick's instruction.
Zick walked forward and looked at the round object that had now separated into three sections. It looked like flower petals, but a red magic circle was drawn on it, giving out frightening mana that made people's hair stand on edge.
The petal-like devices were also connected to the capsule in the middle.
'Let's begin then....' Zick took out three corpses from his space ring and placed it upon the red magic.
A blinding red light was released by the magic circle as it started devouring the corpses. The corpses melted and assimilated into the circle slowly, then it was sent to the capsule.
Zick kept throwing in corpses on the four red magic circles in turn.
He waited for the magic circle to absorb the corpse and then threw in the new batch. Like this, he kept doing the same process again and again.
The fetus was growing rapidly which was visible to the naked eye. Legs and hands started growing at a normal pace. Slowly a head started growing from the top too.
By then, Levienel had already brought all the slaves that were left behind in the Everlor organization's main base.
Zick simply ordered Levienel to knock them unconscious and continued his act of throwing in the corpse.
The frenzied mana was growing rapidly too, red sparkles came out of the fetus which had already turned into a vague silhouette of a human. Red lines spread to every part of its body, throbbing with wild energy.
The golem's face started growing along with the private parts. The alchemist who created it of course wanted a perfect being, and so they gave the biological golem the ability to reproduce too.
'I ran out of corpses.....' Zick turned towards the slaves, there were around three hundred of them. They fitted in the room with no problem as it was quite large.
Zick ordered Levienel to put the corpse and started looking at the capsule intently. The biological body had already grown to its peak stage.
Zick also realized another fact. The biological golem in the capsule body had grown to a size comparable to a young woman at the age of her twenties. But in the novel, this golem had a very young-looking body.
'It must be because of the material used in making her. Aeiron had used monster bodies; thus, her body had not grown properly.' Zick deduced easily.
The hair grown on the head of this golem was fully white just like how it was in the novel. Only after the red gem on her head absorbed the blood of the person who claimed her ownership, will the hair color change.
For Aeiron, her hair had turned blue, so Zick was looking forward to the color her hair will change after he claims its ownership.
"Hmm...." a frown appeared upon Zick's face.
Even after sacrificing all the slaves, the biological golem did not seem to be completed.
In the novel, around 2,000 monster bodies were enough for her to be born but while using the human body, the need seems to have increased exponentially.
Zick decisively ordered Levienel with a serious expression: "Kill all the people in the nearby villages and store it in this space ring."
Zick tossed a ring at Levienel.
"An, also don't hurt the elf villages, I only need humans, bring around 10,000 of them and please wear a mask or something while you kill them," Zick said a number with a smile.
Zick wanted to try out something, he wanted to see what would happen when he fed the biological golem more than its requirement.
'Will it become stronger? Or will it gain some new ability?" Zick looked forward to it.
Levienel left the lab almost immediately, she was interested in the result of this experiment too.
With nothing to do, Zick looked at the blue transparent screen floating around him. Not understanding a thing, he could only ask the genie who was motionless standing behind him.
"How many materials are available in the silver wing system's storage?" Zick waited for its reply patiently.
After flickering for a few seconds, The genie answered robotically: "Scanning complete, no material available."
Hearing the same dialogue as in the novel, Zick revealed a disappointed look. As it seems, a few alchemists had looted the storage clean before making a run for it at the last moment. Well, they were killed in the end so it was unknown where all the material went.
'It can't be helped, I can only collect material, no, I can just loot them from the Everlor organization's main base.' Zick thought before asking another question to the genie.
"Tell me the details of all the body tempering experiments performed in this lab."
The genie's transparent body started flickering again before it replied: "Approximately 346 experiments were performed to strengthen the body. Starting to explain the details..."
Zick cut in: "Tell me about the ones which were successful."
"27 experiments deemed to have succeeded. Starting the explanation...."
"Experiment number 48, tendon transformation...."
"Experiment number 82, brain cell mutation....."
While hearing the specifics of the experience, time passed by quickly. Levienel appeared at last. She handed over the space ring back to Zick.
Sending his consciousness into the space ring, Zick slightly nodded his head.
"Haha, Miss Levienel, please save me if something happens." Zick vigilantly ordered.
Levienel nodded her head in agreement.
Zick was a little worried that something might happen, after all, the biological golden did have the strength of a grandmaster.
Zick started throwing the corpses into the red magic circle again. This time, he didn't bother looking at the biological golem and just kept repeating the process again and again.
In reality, Zick moved with leisure as the red magic circle took a while to absorb the corpses.
After a while, Zick looked at the space ring, and all the corpses had been used. He next looked at the capsule with his eye flickering in bright light.
Within the capsule, bubbles rose rapidly and the biological golem had already fully formed. The red lines upon its body had vanished, being covered in smooth-looking skin.
The red gem on her forehead glowed in dim light, it had a charm of its own making people look at it with mesmerization.
With no more corpses being thrown anymore, bubbles started forming rapidly covering the whole capsule, obscuring the biological golem within it.
Instantly, the capsule's glass broke apart and the biological golem fell to the floor.
At that moment, the world's first artificial living being was created.
