However, the entire experimental center wasn't just a single laboratory; it housed various instruments, large and small, differing only in focus and strength of function. Therefore, many instruments were salvaged, remaining undamaged.
Bai Qilan, Ji Mingyang, and Shu Hongguang split into three groups, each in search of usable equipment, and they gradually identified the operable instruments, carefully transporting them downstairs.
Su Han and the others had brought a total of four trucks, although one was loaded with sixty bags of rice and wasn't filled to capacity, hence the same truck could still carry people. There were three more trucks available for transporting equipment, more than enough for their needs.
As time ticked away, the number of loaded instruments grew, and the Fusion progression of the two Angel Envoys on Su Han's team wasn't slow, either.
In one hour, the Scorpion Spider Demon and the Human-faced Tree each completed the Fusion with two Second Order Low-Grade monsters.
On the Scorpion Spider Demon's side, after Fusion with the body of the Double-tailed Emperor Scorpion, the Fusion Degree reached 30%, while the Human-faced Tree, slightly ahead, achieved 35%.
Both Angel Envoys, as if by an unspoken agreement, began to Fuse lower-tier materials such as the Double-tailed Scorpion and the Split-mouth Worm immediately after completing the body Fusion.
The pile of corpses on the ground was steadily diminishing as the Fusion Degree climbed incrementally.
Double-tailed Emperor Scorpion 31%, 32%, 33%...55%
Split-mouth Mother Worm 36%, 37%...67%
About three hours passed, and Bai Qilan's group had completely moved the items below; two trucks were almost filled to the brim, and protective measures were taken for the instruments to prevent damage during transport.
Although their work was finished, Bai Qilan and his team didn't come to disturb Su Han but instead ordered people to scout the building for other useful materials.
They all knew what Su Han was doing and naturally didn't interrupt him voluntarily.
Zhu Xiong even sent out a squad to clear the corpses of monsters killed earlier by Wang Hu and his team from the streets and dragged them to the vicinity of Su Han's two Angel Envoys, amounting to more than a hundred bodies.
After another hour, the Fusion Degree of the Human-faced Tree finally reached 100%.
[Split-mouth Mother Worm 100% Fusion complete, Human-faced Tree achieves form advancement: Ancient Worm Tree]
Red light enveloped the enormous Human-faced Tree, from the towering crown to the roots, as it underwent drastic changes, swelling in size.
In just a few breaths, the tree had transformed into a giant thirty-meter-tall ancient tree with branches reaching to the sky and a thick trunk, its black bark becoming even more dark and ancient, while its human-like face twisted even further.
Its gaping maw sprouted dense tree fangs inside and out, forming circling rows like gears.
Upon the larger branches, more fleshy tentacles arose, covered in slime and ceaselessly writhing, with the most terrifying change occurring at the root system.
A multitude of tentacle-like roots shot out wildly, their tips resembling beaked mouths, as thick as arms, with a sinister appearance. As they flopped about, they resembled a mass of long, horrifying worms.
[Ancient Worm Tree advancement successful, acquired skill: Tree-born Worm]
A powerful nurturing energy emanated from the Ancient Worm Tree, instantly permeating Su Han's limbs and body, enhancing his physical attributes and strength while making him more aware of the Spiritual Energy contained within him.
His eyes intently focused on the Ancient Worm Tree. The sudden form advancement was somewhat expected, but the skill it brought was surprising.
After a closer sensing, his eyes narrowed with astonishment, thinking, "Is it forming its ecosystem?"
The Ancient Worm Tree used its own body to nurture worm eggs and fed on tree blood to raise the worms as hunting dogs, harvesting flesh to nourish itself.
To some extent, the Ancient Worm Tree had become the new Split-mouth Mother Worm, more powerful and, with it at the core, gave rise to a new tribeāthe servant tribe.
This skill might not be suitable for combat, but it definitely was a territorial skill: in conjunction with Fast-growing Vines and Man-eating Vine, it would be even more difficult to deal with if spread across the ground.
I'll test this skill once I return.
This isn't his territory, and the skill wasn't appropriate to use here. Su Han had to suppress his eager thoughts and turned his attention to the Scorpion Spider Demon.
By now, the Scorpion Spider Demon had completed Fusion with the last pile of Double-tailed Scorpion bodies, naturally reaching a Fusion Degree of 100%.
```
[Double-tailed Emperor Scorpion 100% Fusion complete, Scorpion Spider warrior has achieved form advancement: Scorpion Spider Demon]
A red glow enveloped the Scorpion Spider warrior's body, a powerful heartbeat thudded loudly, and the sound of flesh and tissue undulating was clear and visible. In no time, the entire Scorpion Spider warrior's body was writhing and metamorphosing.
The humanoid upper body became more massive and muscular, the four arms were like cast iron, dark with subtle dark red patterns, and the tough skin faintly bore an exoskeleton resembling that of the Double-tailed Emperor Scorpion, tough, strong, and austere.
The lower half of the spider's body swelled significantly, the front half transforming to sprout a shell and a pair of pitch-black mandibles, shockingly becoming the head of a Double-tailed Emperor Scorpion. The head was eyeless, the mandibles fierce, presenting a gaping maw.
The spider's rear was quickly shrinking; a resilient exoskeleton emerged, and from its end, two iron-casted whip-like scorpion tail hooks burst forth, as thick as an adult's thigh and five meters in length. The tail hooks hovered aloft, swaying side to side, vaguely shimmering with a metallic luster.
The spider legs didn't change much, still as sharp as spears, covered in Black Armor, clicking on the concrete floor as if spears were touching down.
The entire Scorpion Spider Demon stood over six meters tall, its body length reaching seven meters, making it an immense creature with a fearsome and daunting presence.
[Advancement of Scorpion Spider Demon successful, new skill Coagulation Cannon acquired]
The Scorpion Spider Demon's transformation was immense, feeding back into Su Han's body, spiritual energy surged within him, nearly erupting from his being, drastically enhancing his physique and strength.
Su Han was feeling the changes in his body when suddenly this notification appeared in his mind.
He was pleasantly surprised, and before he could pay attention to it, another peculiar sensation overwhelmed him, and his spirit connected with the Scorpion Spider Demon's, almost in synchrony.
The flow of spiritual energy for Metal Control, the manipulation of rules, and the way to use skills flooded his mind, and the hidden paths of spiritual energy in his body began to subtly shift at this time.
[Intermediate Metal Control Skill synchronization successful]
Another prompt appeared in his mind, and Su Han finally opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashed, exuding a formidable aura.
Observing the commotion, Bai Qilan and others looked in astonishment at the transformed Angel Envoy, especially at Su Han, who appeared so powerful, a subtle pressure emanating from him.
Su Han reined in his aura and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, as the rewards from this Fusion far exceeded his expectations.
Scorpion Spider Demon, Coagulation Cannon!
Feeling impulsive to test the new skill of the Scorpion Spider Demon, he controlled it with his mind, turning its body to aim at a thick wall a hundred meters away.
Between the front scorpion mandibles, blood gathered, eventually forming a basketball-sized crimson orb of blood and spiritual energy that shot out violently, like a cannonball, hitting the wall.
"Boom"
Instantly, the wall exploded violently, a six to seven-meter section completely shattered, bricks at the center turned to dust, and the impact of the explosion created a moderate-sized crater on the ground.
Zhu Xiong and others were dumbstruck, blurting out, "Did you copy that scorpion's skills?"
The preparatory movements for the attack, the method of attack, were almost indistinguishable from the Double-tailed Emperor Scorpion's blood arrows. Although the shape changed to a blood orb, wasn't this just a reskin rather than plagiarism?
Su Han rolled his eyes at Zhu Xiong, who, feeling somewhat embarrassed, chuckled awkwardly, "A slip of the tongue, the power of your skill, each one's like a gas cylinder exploding, it might be even more powerful."
The more powerful Su Han became, the happier they were, because he was the mainstay of the camp.
"Pack up, we're going back."
Su Han didn't explain much, but he was quite satisfied with the power of the Coagulation Cannon. If he let it gather for a longer time, the power could increase even more.
However, this wasn't a skill that could be used indefinitely. The Coagulation Cannon needed to consume blood and the spiritual energy within the Scorpion Spider Demon. Though the Regenerative skills could slightly compensate for the blood loss.
Yet the activation of the Regenerative Ability itself would consume the Scorpion Spider Demon's strength and spiritual energy. Therefore, the more it was used, the more easily the Scorpion Spider Demon would become exhausted.
This skill was a sneaky trick. While engaging in close combat, it could deliver an unexpected Coagulation Cannon right to the opponent's face.
Moreover, the Scorpion Spider Demon possessed the Floating Pagoda Black Armor skill, which could act as a shield, concealing the motion of the scorpion mandibles as it prepared, making the attack even more surprising.
