SWDnovel Chapter 185 Nirvana
Chapter 185 Nirvana
"Those who survive a great calamity are bound to have good fortune in the future!" The little girl was extremely optimistic; she had gotten used to surviving several near-death experiences.
Although she was terrified every time.
"Brother Dao! Where are you going?"
"I'm going to see my precious baby!" Xu Si was extremely heartbroken.
Last time he provoked the [Time Delay Mirage] and lost all his purification points. This time, he provoked the [Lou Mi King]. Will he lose all his [Conqueror] points?
He wasn't that bothered by the purification points; the Conqueror was practically his second life.
Watching Xu Si's lonely figure disappear on his sword, the caravan silently followed.
As he got closer, his heart sank lower and lower.
The sense of distance became blurred in such a vast and boundless environment, but he still managed to pinpoint his location with difficulty, relying on the faint connection he had with the conqueror.
Finally, on a flat area about one kilometer away from the original civil defense fortification, he saw something different.
It was a pool of... dark red, viscous wax that seemed to have a life of its own, about twice the size of the original "Conqueror," undulating and wriggling slightly in the moonlight, like a giant slime.
The waxy surface occasionally gleamed with a metallic sheen, and the shadows of the original menacing patterns on the car body could still be vaguely seen, but everything was twisted, melted, and reassembled, in a highly unstable state.
Xu Si landed slowly, standing a few meters away from the pool of wax, his starry eyes fixed on it.
The sword of punishment slid silently into his hand, its blade humming slightly, as if it too were puzzled.
The pool of wax flowed slowly, following some kind of instinctive rhythm, devouring the scattered metal fragments containing faint energy, and its volume seemed to be growing extremely slowly.
"Brother Dao, what is this thing? Is it a slime?"
"What the hell? This is Brother Dao's car!" Xu Si's face darkened.
"Huh? When did your car turn into a puddle?"
Not only was the little girl shocked, but the rest of the team were also puzzled.
[Current Wonder - Conqueror (Molten Wax Form)]
Ok!
Although it turned into a puddle, it is still a rare item.
That patch of water showed no aggression, nor did it exude the restrained yet dangerous aura it usually possessed; it simply... moved slowly.
As for the direction, it was towards the convoy.
Fu Xiaojian and the little girl's Pikachu quickly moved aside.
"Dad!" Yao Yao exclaimed nervously as she watched the puddle moving toward their car.
Wang Hu was also preparing to start his car to avoid it.
Upon seeing the car being towed behind Wang Hu's vehicle, Xu Si seemed to have thought of something and immediately landed next to Wang Hu's car to speak.
"Brother Wang, if you don't need this car, I'll trade you two rare drops!"
"Huh? Aren't two items too many?"
He's been working on the car lately, but unfortunately, without emergency decoding equipment, it won't start, making it somewhat useless.
"It's alright, it's not much at all!"
The value of an item is often determined by demand.
Xu Si didn't care and simply unloaded the car behind him.
Then everyone witnessed a miraculous scene: the moment the wax touched the SUV, it accelerated suddenly, like a hungry beast finding its prey!
The dark red, viscous substance rapidly enveloped and penetrated the metal car body as if it were alive. The metal car body made a "sizzling" sound of corrosion the moment it came into contact with the substance, softening and melting at a speed visible to the naked eye, and being assimilated and absorbed by the wax.
"It looks like it's 'eating' something," the little girl said.
"Back off! Everyone, step back!" Fu Xiaojian shouted sternly.
The convoy immediately increased the distance, with all the headlights focused on that bizarre and terrifying scene.
Xu Si stood still, his scarlet star-like eyes fixed on the ever-expanding and deforming mass of wax.
He could feel that the deep connection between himself and the "Conqueror" had not weakened, but rather had become even clearer in this strange state.
The SUV was completely swallowed up and disintegrated in just two or three minutes, leaving only a dark red waxy ocean that had nearly doubled in size.
It was no longer calm; inside, countless bubbles seemed to be churning and bursting, emitting a low, gurgling sound like surging magma.
The waxy surface begins to fluctuate, stretch, and shape violently!
Then everyone saw the outline of the conqueror slowly appear.
First, the outlines of the chassis and wheels "emerged" from the sea of wax, dark and tough, with a cold, hard luster after absorbing metal.
Next is the car body frame, which is thicker and more menacing than before, with sharp protrusions resembling bone spurs naturally forming at the edges;
The hood bulges, and the flowing wax outlines even more ferocious muscle lines;
Finally, there's the car's exterior. The dark red wax is covered and shaped like cooled lava, and the surface flows with a deeper and more restrained luster of metal and wax intertwined, like a ferocious beast clad in magma armor!
The entire "rebirth" process lasted about five minutes.
As the last wisp of wax recedes back into the car body, completely merging with the main body—
"Buzz—!!!"
A deep, resonant engine roar, like the awakening of an ancient behemoth, exploded without warning across the desolate wasteland!
The dark red body reflected a chilling light under the headlights.
It is taller and stronger than before, with a more aggressive front end and four wheels that are noticeably larger, with deep tire treads resembling the claw marks of a wild beast.
Its overall character has been completely transformed from a dangerous modified off-road vehicle into a steel beast that seems to have crawled out of a hellish furnace, covered in bones and lava!
[Current Wonder: Nirvana]
[Ranking of Oddities: 1221]
[Integration Features: Mechanical Rhythm/Time-Machine Coordination - An Industrial Miracle]
Description: This is not a product of the old era, but a miracle of the new era. (Note: Anything is possible.)
[New Feature: Infinite Reshaping]
Description: Passive evolution under extreme hunger. The vehicle can repair damage and optimize its structure by consuming metal and energy-rich substances. The consumption process is irreversible, and the evolutionary direction is unknown. (Note: It's best not to provoke it when it's hungry.)
……
Xu Si's breathing quickened slightly, and he almost teared up.
Not only are vehicles back, but their ranking has also improved by more than 300 places. Nirvana sounds more impressive than Conqueror!
Although the process was a bit scary, this was a huge win!
He took a deep breath, suppressed the pounding in his heart, and stepped toward the brand-new "Conqueror" that exuded a dangerous aura.
The moment my fingers touched the cool car door handle, a satisfied, deep hum came from the car body, and the door slid open silently.
The interior layout remained familiar, but the seats offered better support, and the instrument panel lights were now a dark red, displaying all the data clearly.
The engine's idling sound is smooth and powerful, as if it contains the strength of a volcano.
"It's all done!"
After the stunned onlookers snapped out of their daze, Xu Si got into the driver's seat, closed the car door, and sounded relieved.
But I always feel like something is missing?
