Chapter 322 The Call of Belvis

In fact, the process of nanogene engineering surgery requires the modified person to stay awake throughout the process, so as to avoid errors in certain dangerous links.

Along with the transformation process, the body will experience intense pain, and the only way to survive it is through the will of the person being transformed.

This is also a drawback of genetic surgery.

Even if there is new technology in the future, body modification can be carried out under anesthesia. When the surgery reaches a critical stage, the person being modified will still wake up due to pain, and the effect will be of little effect.

Of course, the void mouse is an exception.

In order to prevent it from waking up and going crazy and causing damage, Li Lin injected the sleeping potion into it without considering the dosage.

If you do this to people, there is a high probability that it will cause irreparable and permanent damage to certain functions of the human body.

Kasha turned her face sideways, looked at Li Lin next to the operating table, and exhaled heavily: "The longer you delay, the more nervous I will be. Come on, just do it."

Without any further hesitation, he controlled the restraint device on the operating table to firmly restrain Kasha's arms, waist, legs and ankles.

Although Li Lin believed in Kasha's tolerance for pain, after all, this kind of genetic surgery was very dangerous and there was no room for error.

To be conservative, he was still not prepared to take this risk.

Li Lin inserted the injection into Kaisha's neck, the only part of her body that could get rid of the void carapace.

As the injection drug was slowly injected into her skin, a stinging pain gradually spread from the injection site on the pillow to Kasha's body.

"Well……"

She let out a groan of pain, but this was far from the pain caused by swallowing void creatures and evolving skin armor.

Seeing Kasha gritting her teeth and enduring the pain, Li Lin couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

But now was not the time for ink. His clothes changed shape, the neural connection device was attached to his temples and spine, and a holographic display screen was projected in front of him.

It displays various complex body data such as Kai'Sa's vital signs, the status of the living skin, and energy index changes.

With the help of Intelligent Brain and precise control by Li Lin, countless nanorobots penetrated deep into Kasha's cells and reached the nucleus.

The other part of the nanorobots penetrated into the void carapace through the connection between Kai'Sa's own skin and the second skin.

It's just that the process is not smooth.

At this time, the living skin on Kasha's body seemed to feel some threat and became extremely active, squirming uncontrollably.

Hundreds of fine needles are inserted into each pore, and a sharp stinging sensation comparable to devouring evolution spreads throughout the body.

Kasha's purple pupils shrank, and her whole body suddenly became tense, and even the restraint device supported by special compression material made a "creep" sound.

"Uh...ah!" She let out a low roar that was even more painful than before.

Seeing this scene, Caitlin, who was sitting far away, could only hold her hands together involuntarily, and her heart became twisted.

Li Lin looked at the unexpected abnormal data on the holographic panel and couldn't help but frown.

Because the mouse was in a deep sleep state when the experiment was conducted, he did not expect that such a special situation would occur.

"Give Kasha a tranquilizer."

Li Lin gave the order to Zhinao, and a robotic arm already waiting beside the operating table changed its shape, revealing a slender needle, which slowly penetrated Kasha's blood vessel.

As a doubled dose of the tranquilizer was injected into her body, Kasha's head felt dizzy, and the pain from the living skin was relieved a lot, and her struggle became much less intense.

"Are you okay?" Li Lin asked worriedly.

This situation occurred before the body transformation started, and he was a little hesitant whether to continue or not.

"How about we stop first and let me study your situation..."

"No...go on." Kasha muttered vaguely, her eyes becoming blurred due to the tranquilizer, "I can...can persist..."

"..."

Li Lin was silent for a moment, watching the data on Kai'Sa's second skin on the panel return to within the controllable range, and then continued the operation.

However, the abnormal movement and rejection of Void's skin just now destroyed most of the nanorobots that entered its cells. This kind of loss has also occurred in Void mice, but it was not that serious.

Li Lin controlled the robotic arm and injected a batch of nanorobots into her body again to transform living skin.

As for how to purify the power of the void?

In the experiment on the void mice just now, he used the astral magic in the "Ascension Talisman Prototype" that he obtained from Azir's secret vault.

The power of the gods can purify the void energy to a certain extent, depending on the amount used. Nasus has done this before.

However, the power of the gods can only purify the energy of the void, but cannot remove the corruption caused by the void.

Otherwise, the celestial warriors who had gone deep into the void battlefield would not have been corrupted by the void.

Moreover, Nasus has an almost instinctive aversion to the void. Even if the void energy is purified, the transformed energy will not be allowed to exist in the world again, but will be completely annihilated.

According to the data recorded by the Intelligent Brain, the ratio of converting void energy into pure energy is approximately three to one.

But the energy contained in Kai'Sa's skin is far beyond that of a void mouse, and Li Lin doesn't know how much energy from the carapace she will ultimately be able to absorb.

As the nanorobot penetrated deep into the cell nucleus and came into contact with the genetic sequence, he first took out the Ascension Talisman Pendant, let the mechanical arm grasp it and hung it halfway on Kaisha's chest, and then activated the energy crystal to inject energy into it to stimulate the celestial power in it.

This energy only maintains between about 45% and 75%, changing with the fluctuation of the Void Carapace surface transformation data.

Otherwise, the effect of the power of ascension would not be purification, but erasure.

A bright yellow shimmer came from the Ascension Talisman and reflected on the surface of Kaisha's skin, and the purple skin armor on her body became frantic again as if sensing a natural enemy.

"Uh uh ah ah..."

Kasha looked in pain, and her body subconsciously wanted to curl up into a ball.

But due to the restraint device and the physical weakness caused by the tranquilizer, she simply couldn't break free.

With the cooperation of the energy of the Ascension Talisman, the nanorobots in Kai'Sa's second skin and in her own body worked simultaneously and began to touch her genetic sequence.

Kasha screamed in pain even louder.

At the same time, several robotic arms whose tips turned into needles drooped one after another, injecting into her body the medicine that had been prepared to prevent the collapse of the genetic sequence and temporarily maintain the operation of the human body's physiological functions.

Li Lin took a deep breath, the most critical moment was coming:

Disrupt part of the gene sequence and then modify the sequence to re-edit the gene content.

This process is the most time-consuming, often taking up 95% of the entire surgery.

A trickle of sweat broke out on Li Lin's forehead, and he stared at the data panel nervously, then multitasked to control the details and give orders to the nanorobots in each part.

Fortunately, the transformation process went very smoothly. Most of the void energy in the skin armor had been purified, and the efficiency of gene sequence editing was much higher than he expected.

Soon, about half of the void energy in Kai'Sa's second skin was purified by the Ascension Talisman, and one-third of the pure energy was injected into her flesh and blood body.

But just when Li Lin thought everything was going smoothly, something happened that made his expression suddenly change.

On the holographic panel projected in front of him, the data on Kai'Sa's void skin suddenly began to change erratically, sometimes rising and sometimes falling.

Kasha, who was lying on the operating table, suddenly turned pale and was breathing rapidly, as if she couldn't breathe.

Not only that, her heartbeat continued to rise, approaching 250 beats per minute. The circulation in her body was extremely exhausted, and her vital signs were extremely declining.

Li Lin slammed the workbench next to him, "Damn it! What's going on? There's obviously nothing wrong in every link!"

Caitlin, who was sitting far away, knew that something unexpected had happened on their side. She pursed her pale lips, frowned, and couldn't help but stand up.

But she still suppressed the impulsive idea of ​​going to ask Li Lin what happened.

After all, she knew nothing about this. If she rashly disturbed Li Lin, she might affect him and cause more serious consequences.

Now, all Caitlin can do is pray for Kasha.

On the operating table, seeing that Kasha was about to lose her vital signs completely, Li Lin originally wanted to redeem an "Eliza's Miracle" from the system store.

It was the gift he once gave to Caitlin at her coming-of-age ceremony, an epic-level item that could bring the female wearer back to life.

But what he didn't expect was that this special magic item had the so-called "uniqueness", and it was impossible to buy a second pendant while the first pendant still existed.

"Damn it! The chain was dropped at the critical moment!" Li Lin yelled angrily.

But before he looked at Caitlin and lent the pendant she had been wearing to Kaisha for use, her vital signs were inexplicably stabilized in a near-death state.

Immediately afterwards, Zhinao's reminder calmed him down a bit:

[Master, interference from abnormal energy has been detected. It is this energy that caused the mutation of Miss Kasha’s second skin. It is not your fault. 】

"what is going on?"

Li Lin stared at Kasha, whose body was twitching slightly as if suffering from epilepsy, white smoke rising from the operating table, and her voice was low and hoarse.

Zhi Nao paused for a moment, completed the data calculation and speculation, and then said:

[This interference energy belongs to the void... and has the same origin as Miss Kasha's second skin. 】

Li Lin's eyes widened and he suddenly took a breath of air, "What?! This is impossible!"

[My calculation is correct, Master. 】

There seemed to be confusion in Zhinao's tone.

[According to my calculations, this energy comes from the southeast of Shurima, roughly located at the junction of Kohalise and Ikasia. 】

It paused again, but this time it was not calculations but hesitation.

【You...should know that location. 】

With a look of shock and disbelief, Li Lin spoke out word by word with a trembling voice the word he had learned from Malphite: "Belvis."

"What is Belvis?" At this time, Caitlin couldn't help but came over and asked nervously, "What's going on with Kasha?"

Before Li Lin could answer, the crisp sound of metal cracking immediately attracted their attention.

Kasha, who was originally unable to break free, was sitting on the operating table. She could only see the whites of her eyes staring at them, especially Li Lin.

The next second, a sigh that seemed like a million voices fused together came out from Kasha's mouth intermittently: "Belvis... you, and Kasha, must..."

This voice seems to be able to bend everything and overwhelm everything, like a low whisper in nothingness, but it can also give people a deafening and shattering feeling, like a world-destroying wave that stirs up thousands of meters of waves.

It comes from the folds and cracks of space and is boundless.

Li Lin's armor appeared on his body and protected Caitlin behind him, "Who are you? What do you want?!"

"Belvis...remember...you only have one year...or...devour."
