Deep in the Living

Chapter 573 Hand

Deep inside the torture chamber, in the biological modification room.

Hundreds of sinners from hell "volunteered" to come here to assist with a task.

According to Hawke, as long as they cooperate, their sentences can be reduced, and those who perform well may even be given a chance to return to hell.

The task is also very simple.
A guide chain needs to be attached to their bodies.

The other end of the chain was hooked into Roddy's left arm.

These criminals didn't know exactly what to do; they just stood there, waiting for Mr. Hawke to give them orders.

Hawke was setting up some kind of formation.

Using various superior limbs as a base, a special hellish formation was arranged, and then the manga fragments were placed in the center of the formation.

"Roddy, get ready to begin! If there are any problems, I will destroy this fragment to ensure your safety."

"Come."

"You seem quite confident~ You seem to have grown a lot during this time."

Hawke's ten fingers began to pull the invisible threads, aligning the positions of the limbs that made up the array. When they were completely aligned, the array was activated!
In an instant, all the high-quality limbs used to construct the formation were affected by the fragments, and abnormal metal began to appear on the surface of the limbs.

at this time,

Hawke snapped his fingers,
Thin, long metal wires shot out from the surface of his limbs, piercing towards Luo Di, who was standing at the edge of the formation.

Through the coordinated action of the array and multiple limbs, the alienated energy between the manga fragments is stably directed to Roddy's "torture chamber arm".

It's not just about stable delivery.

The abnormal energy that is not conducive to the arm's absorption will continue to be diverted and directed through the chains to hundreds of sinners, who will then share the burden.

With Mr. Hawke's assistance, Roddy absorbed the [metallic element] between the fragments.

Even so,

Even with an array to stably transmit the energy of the fragment,

Even with hundreds of sinners helping to share the negative aspects.

Roddy's left arm is still having problems.
A jumble of copper pipes began to replace the original skeleton.

Diverse gears are beginning to replace the role of the elbow.

Small holes, about the size of a little finger, began to appear on the surface of my arm, releasing bursts of foul-smelling gas from within.

The flesh inside the arm began to rot, and fish-like structures began to appear.

As for those sinners who were used to share the burden of the alienation, they fared even worse. Their bodies began to swell rapidly, turning an unusual green color, and gas was oozing from all seven orifices of their faces.

Below their abdomens, spider-like metal devices grow, replacing their two legs and supporting their new bodies.

Mr. Hawke hadn't expected that these few tattered pages could have such a powerful impact.
Or,

A mysterious, unknown higher world is exerting its influence through these few inconspicuous fragments, which is why such great harm has occurred.

"No wonder that human sought us out to cooperate... Something's not right here."

"Rodi!"

Hawke suddenly shouted, indicating that what they were doing needed to stop. If they continued, Roddy would not only lose his left arm, but his mind would also be invaded.

But Roddy suddenly raised his head, gave him a firm look, and then turned his gaze back to his left arm.

[Great Demon Stance]

Ash eyes stared intently at his deeply mutated arm, without the slightest hesitation... The Great Slaughter.

Any alien substance that dared to invade his arm was slaughtered in some form.

of course,

The arm itself can also be injured.

Each precise mental strike sliced ​​through flesh and blood, removing all the rotten matter inside and severing the dilapidated pipes that carried the putrid gas.

Soon, the left arm no longer resembled an 'arm'.

However, any fish that exhibits abnormal growth or mutation will be slaughtered immediately.

Time passes little by little,

Roddy had already slaughtered the arm countless times, and the efficiency of the mutation effect gradually began to slow down.

Even the fragments of pages within the hellish formation seemed to begin to yield, with multiple slashes appearing between the pages.

But as long as there's even the slightest bit of alienation left, Roddy must maintain it, without a moment's relaxation; this is a protracted battle. Hawke, though eager to go to the internet cafe to play games, has no choice but to grit his teeth and stay here for now.

Three days and three nights passed.

The tattered pages have completely lost their color.

Beneath Roddick's mask, his blood-red eyes were fixed intently on his left arm.

One hour,

two hours,
Three hours passed.
No more alien substances will be formed.

The left arm, which appears to be incomplete and riddled with cuts, with no skin left, has actually undergone a kind of metal fusion in its essence.

"It's done!!!"

Excitement overshadowed fatigue.
Luo Di exerted his strength instantly, breaking the hook attached to the surface of his left arm, twisting his steps and turning around to deliver a horizontal slash!
hum!
What appears to be a hand chop motion is actually intended to enhance the effect of the consciousness slash.

All the corrupted sinners were killed, and Roddy bowed deeply to their corpses.

The remaining pages between the formations had been completely drained and scattered by the wind.

Hawke, who hadn't slept for three days as well, came to Roddy's side and carefully examined his arm. Although it was still incomplete, as long as Roddy rested properly, the arm could be structurally restored.

This no longer falls under the category of torture chamber arms.

Its biological structure, variable properties, and energy transfer are at an even higher level.

"Roddy, you should rest. In the next two days, I need to disassemble the structure of your arm. The resulting metal data can then be used for my modifications."

Your perseverance is truly amazing.
And it seems you have a good teacher when it comes to the use of [hands].

"Yes... otherwise I wouldn't be entirely confident either. Thank you for your help, Senior Hawke."

Roddy returned to the intensive care unit he used to know best and lay down on the cold wire bed to rest. Although he was a little worried about Libert's condition during this time, exhaustion still made him fall asleep.

No dreams

No alienation,

There is no abyss.

I haven't had such a good night's sleep in ages.

He could only vaguely feel something touching his arm.

Sometimes it touches lightly, sometimes it strokes, sometimes it licks, sometimes it scratches...

It started out normally, but it got increasingly bizarre.

As a result, Roddy, who wanted to sleep a little longer, was forced to wake up.

Little did they know that he and his hospital bed had been moved to the dean's office, which also served as the interrogation room and preaching room.

Hawke was using fine, curved hooks to probe the structure of the arm, and was also applying a strange slime to it. Dozens of sheets of paper detailing the structure were already piled up on the altar.

"Roddy, you've been asleep for two whole days. Your arm has already healed itself. I couldn't wait any longer, so I brought you over ahead of time."

The structural investigation is basically complete, and you can leave shortly.

Thanks to you, I haven't been playing games these past few days, and my internet addiction has decreased a lot. I can finally focus on my business... no, no, going online is business, after all.

Roddy quickly regained consciousness and subconsciously moved his left arm in front of him.

The entire arm has detached from the human body.

The surface features a biomimetic muscle texture interwoven with exposed hydraulic pipes, and the joints are inlaid with energy rings in the style of a torture chamber. It looks like metal but is actually perfectly integrated with biological flesh and blood.

Both the flesh and the metal are black, presenting a more advanced biological form.

When Roddy tried to grasp with his fingers, he could feel the mechanical feedback and neural sensing between his arms as each finger moved, and he could fine-tune every detail.

"Creation of Torture Instruments"

A high-end animal trap, pure black in color and composed of numerous fine tubes and gears, was created.
Even the metal teeth have been transformed into a movable chainsaw structure, capable of cutting once it grips a target.

Moreover, the animal trap itself can move freely, can be moved to different locations, and can dig itself into the soil to hide.

Following this, Roddy, having lost his Hell Weapon in the alienation incident, is now attempting to reconstruct himself.

Swish!
A chainsaw sword, gleaming with a jet-black luster, actually grew out from the palm of his left arm. Its biological style was even more pronounced, and the chainsaw resembled teeth, capable of quickly tearing flesh and blood apart.

Also because Roddy was in hell,
Because of the changes to the torture chamber's arm, the Will of Hell needs to update the information about this great demon.

<Lo'di's limbs have been completely restructured; the original "torture chamber left arm" has been replaced with the "Prometheus's hand.">
