Chapter 501 Third Fusion Material
Dimensional Space; Dota flailed its dragon claws, fusing its original body—corpse—into Anthozoa little by little while a choker hovered above it, emanating lightning bolts that served into the gun.
These bolts acted like threads that stitched the gun and Dota's corpse together. Stencil had been working together with Dota from the time she woke up.
Initially, she wasn't able to help much as everything was done by Dota alone.
But once she broke through to the Martial Providence Realm, Stencil's true potential erupted as she was able to transform into a System thanks to her attribute of the Coordinates and the System she was controlling.
Moreover, for her third fusion material, she picked Dota's horns, obtaining the Dragon of Systems as her third attribute.
Thanks to this, she was able to play an active role in fusing Dota's corpse into Anthozoa, for she now possessed a similar power. This was also when Rhizen and Compass Carburettor changed their plans.
For the following decade, Stencil and Dota continued to work in fusing Dota's corpse and Anthozoa into one, using a variety of abilities to slowly work through things. A significant sum of Mental Energy was also required for the same, so they had to take things slow.
Mental Energy continued to gush into the Dimensional Space from outside. After all, Mental Energy wasn't suppressed by the Restriction Order.
And this reserve of Mental Energy was what allowed them to work in the process. They had to exercise utmost caution in the task. After all, they were modifying Compass Carburettor's Personal Fragment.
If they made a mistake, it might result in the Personal Fragment getting damaged. Personal Fragments weren't indestructible. They could easily be destroyed.
Even though his Anthozoa was at the height of Earth's engineering, capable of withstanding impact by a ton of steel on it without so much as suffering a scratch, that was only in terms of its hardness and toughness.
When the material's boiling point was attained, it would melt into a puddle. And this was Anthozoa's weakness.
And they were doing pretty dangerous experiments that almost tested the limits of Anthozoa's structural limits.
Boom!
The choker in the air unleashed a torrent of lightning currents that slithered like snakes and entered Anthozoa, stitching the final portion of Dota's corpse to it.
Currently, Anthozoa's body seemed like it had been covered by a layer of leather. There also existed a small horn that acted as its front sight. There were no other changes to it, but the moment the fusion was completed, the choker turned into Stencil as she saw the Dimensional Space whirring in response.
The aurora formed by Mental Energy in the sky dimmed as most of the Mental Energy gushed into Anthozoa, powering it up as it was upgraded as a Personal Fragment.
The powerup was so significant that Compass Carburettor was also able to feel it in the mind space. He then smiled, noticing Earth brightening up in response, suddenly brimming with terrifying energy as the chains binding it screamed in response, failing to keep it locked anymore.
If he were to harness all his power, the chains would break immediately. But, Compass Carburettor didn't want that as he controlled Earth—thanks to the weakening restriction—ensuring that the power accumulation by Earth was slow enough that the chains were able to catch up and restrict it.
The power of the Restriction Order was focused on Earth as more and more of it arrived here, causing the number of chains to skyrocket.
Normally, such a significant number of chains wouldn't be required even for a high-level System. But, as he was the Main Character, he was innately resistant to the Restriction Order. Hence, the efficacy of the Restriction Order was almost a hundred times weaker on him as compared to the Systems.
Due to that, the Restriction Order had to focus most of its power on his mind space to prevent him from breaking free.
Thump! Thump!
Slowly, the chains surrounding Earth connected, forming a node that turned into a heart and began to thump in response. The majority of the Restriction Order had arrived here, beginning to condense automatically.
And upon seeing this, Rhizen smiled, "It's working."
"Yep," Compass Carburettor nodded as he continued to rile up Earth. And this time, he caused it to also harness the power of the Darble World and the Apocalypse World, further raising the chances of it becoming free.
This resulted in the Restriction World being drawn to it higher. In truth, this was thanks to Anthozoa that was slowly sucking in the Restriction Order towards itself.
This was Anthozoa's trait after it was turned into a Personal Fragment. And after the current upgrade, it was capable of pulling the Restriction Order too.
As there wasn't anyone controlling the Restriction Order due to the nature of its power, it worked based on the instincts delivered by the memory within.
And, that was easy to take advantage of as eventually, Compass Carburettor grunted, causing the entirety of his power to be condensed in Earth.
As a result, the entirety of the Restriction Order's core had formed above it, erecting powerful chains that ensured Earth would never break free of its control.
Slowly, the Restriction Order manifested itself, shaped like a Coordinate, with millions of tendrils on it. And exiting those tendrils were chains that spread through the Cultivation World, sealing all System-related abilities.
As for the energy required to maintain this, it was of course the Mental Energy. But somehow, the Restriction Order was capable of absorbing the Mental Energy present in the Cultivation World itself, a resultant of the thoughts of everyone failing to be absorbed by anyone.
Such thoughts turned into Mental Energy and lingered for short durations before vanishing. But before it vanished, the Restriction Order absorbed it to fuel itself.
And now that its body had formed, Compass Carburettor smiled, muttering, "So, this is the first Main Character's body."
"That seems to be the case." Rhizen nodded.
"Are you ready, Rhizen?" Compass Carburettor asked, gazing at the nervous figure of the other party.
Though hesitant, Rhizen understood what he had to do, firming himself as he arrived before the Restriction Order, grabbing hold of it with his hand, saying, "I'm ready."
"This will be my third fusion material."
