Vampire: World of Blood-Chapter 124: Blooming Information

Merciless floated in the dark confines of Black Tail’s stomach, his senses keenly attuned to the vibrations and sounds echoing through the creature’s body. Three days had passed since they began their upward journey, drilling through the oppressive layers of rock that entombed them. Initially, progress had been swift, with Black Tail carving through the stone with terrifying efficiency. But now, that momentum had waned.

He could feel it—the subtle shift in Black Tail’s movements, the gradual slowing of the once-relentless drilling. Something was different, something in the rock itself had changed. With a thought, Merciless accessed the sensory data from Black Tail, focusing on the source of this newfound resistance. The creature’s sensory tendrils, sensitive to every nuance of the surrounding material, relayed the information back to him.

His neon blue and dark purple eyes narrowed as a visual overlay materialized before him, revealing the composition of the obstacle they now faced. The rock, previously ordinary in its density and structure, had given way to a mineral vein, unlike anything he had encountered before.

"The hell is this shit?!"

Merciless questioned, the substance was captivating—a bright purple mineral with star-like particles suspended within it, creating the illusion of a little galaxy trapped within the stone. The particles twinkled with an inner light, each a pinpoint of brilliance that appeared to pulse with its own life. The entire vein shimmered as if it were alive and well, deep within the soil.

"Hmmm... well there is only one way to find out."

Without saying anything else, one of the fragmented minerals shifted location and fell into the other esophagus of Black Tail’s mouth and right into Merciless’s hand as it traversed down the alternate stomach. Naturally, Merciless opens his codex and feeds this rock to it, as the codex begins to siphon information from it.

And the moment he did that, information began to appear before him as words manifested on the page after processing the information.

Material Analysis:

Name: ???

Composition: Despite its crystalline appearance, this material is far from a mineral. Detailed investigation revealed that it is a hardened type of saliva with features that are strikingly comparable to complicated enzymes. Despite its glass-like appearance, the material is biologically active, constantly stiffening in a way that contradicts traditional biology.

The origin of this saliva is unknown, but the underlying chemicals suggest it came from a highly advanced arthropod-like organism, far beyond any known terrestrial or alien lifeforms.

Durability: The hardened condition of saliva is an oddity, with durability that exceeds the combined gravitational forces of many solar systems. What’s particularly odd is that, while its strength grows eternally, its bulk stays feather-light, as if it exists partially out of sync with our world.

The material has minuscule density, but it can endure pressures that would crush the densest known substances, indicating a non-Newtonian feature that allows it to diffuse force across dimensions.

Properties: The most perplexing aspect of this saliva is its unexplainable hardening. It appears to feed on different energies that are being naturally produced in the current environment, which is constantly reinforcing its structure while maintaining its weight.

Theory: This material is showing signs of temporal forces, as such there is a possibility that its supernatural durability could be anchored in an extradimensional space, drawing power from somewhere else to maintain its supernatural properties.

The species that made this saliva must have evolved to harness these energies, maybe by constructing impenetrable barriers or traps that violate the natural order. Its real nature and origin are unclear, but the study implies a deep relationship to the fabric of space-time being expressed in a biological manner.

Energy type: Faze energy, cardinal energy, and temporal energy.

Possible Uses:

Impenetrable Armor: The endless hardening of the saliva could be harnessed to create armor that grows stronger over time, effectively becoming indestructible. Its lightweight nature would make it ideal for both personal and large-scale defense systems.

Energy Absorption: Given its ability to feed on different energy types, this material could be integrated into systems designed to absorb and store vast amounts of energy, potentially serving as a power source or a defensive mechanism against energy-based attacks.

Weaponization: If engineered properly, this substance could be formed into weapons that not only withstand immense force but also grow stronger upon impact, making them ideal for penetrating the toughest of defenses.

Structural Reinforcement: Its lightweight yet indestructible nature could revolutionize construction, allowing for the creation of structures that are both resilient and efficient, possibly enabling the construction of buildings or ships that defy conventional architectural limitations.

--------------------------------------

Merciless had a bewildered expression on his face when he read this information; he was actually surprised to see anything as odd as this so early on. One of the last things he expected to see for sure.

But he knew it couldn’t be crystal, a suspicion confirmed when he failed to establish a connection with it through Carla Ichor. The substance resisted the usual bonds that would form with a mineral. Instead, his Darwinism felt a stronger affinity with it than anything else, solidifying its biological nature rather than a mineral-like one.

"What a weird thing to casually bump into, hmm... well if I want further information, there is no better way than using my Darwinism to genetically analyze it instead."

Without hesitation, Merciless opened his mouth wide and swallowed the hardened saliva whole. As the substance slid down his throat. The hardened saliva began to dissolve within him, its complex structure unraveling into a stream of genetic information.

Merciless’ body readily absorbed the genetic material, and his cells quickly assimilated the substance’s unique capabilities by virtue of Darwinism. The crystalline structure, once strange and intriguing, had become a part of him, its essence blending with his own DNA. He could feel the force within him change and adapt as Darwinism worked to reveal the mysteries concealed within the saliva.

NB-Source also stepped in and dissolved whatever was left, incorporating the crystal current state into Merciless concept of being as such it now corresponded with his existence itself, and after breaking it down to its most basic terms for better analysis, he discovered traces of cardinal energy within it, the very energy that Lucy specialized in, according to Ophelia’s memories.

Along with Faze’s energy, he didn’t know much about it. He did see Memories with Ophelia as a little girl studying energy types with a busty woman who looked a lot like her as she explained the basics of Faze energy, but she didn’t let Ophelia learn anything other than systematic energy, which Ophelia excelled at.

To truly master systematic energy, one must first gain proficiency in various energy types, as this foundational knowledge is crucial for understanding their interplay and practical application. Systematic energy is the practice of harnessing and manipulating all forms of energy, akin to performing ninjutsu through precise hand signs that channel-specific effects based on the systemized energy.

However, Ophelia finds herself at odds with faze energy, one of the least compatible with her nature due to her third-rate affinity for it. Consequently, she never progressed beyond the fundamental concept that faze energy is the underlying force that shapes and defines the structure of all things.

But that aside.

As the process concluded, more information filled his consciousness. He could perceive the genuine essence of the substance. It was more than just stone-like saliva; it was a complicated combination of many materials, including deep beneath wood roots, something sweet that he could almost taste, and, most frighteningly, the dead bodies of innumerable beings of the same kind.

However, the whole Dna strand of those deceased creatures has been shredded into oblivion, and the cells within the stone have been reprogrammed to unleash a deadly paralysis poison, paralyzing anyone who touches it. Clearly manufactured and self-intended, implying that whoever did this was fully aware of what they were doing.

The memories that came with the genetic material created a vivid, eldritch image. He saw a species of bees, but these were not your typical insects. They were horrible, dwelling underground in enormous colonies with twisted, alien bodies.

The hardened saliva was their creation, a byproduct of their tireless efforts, a substance that was both extraordinarily sticky and extremely durable. It was used to create protective shells, which were gigantic structures that protected their underground nests and, more crucially, their queen.

Merciless realized with a jolt that this material was only found in abundance near a colony. The presence of this hardened saliva meant that he was close to their nest, possibly within striking distance of the queen herself.

"Well, I be damned, so all this time I’ve been excavating closer and closer to a colony of monstrous bees. Heheh... how Interesting, I need to get my hands on more of their DNA, one that isn’t as shredded as these samples, which would be a great addition to my arsenal... I wonder how strong their queen is... hmmm.... oh well, there’s only one way to find out."

Merciless said as he made Black Tail continue to drill upwards.
