Chapter 145 – Rune Domain

Since corresponding latent abilities can be activated in the second stage of Evolution, Su Hao needs to carefully plan the abilities of his Evolution [Steel Armor King].

The reason Su Hao valued the [Divine Armor] sequence the most was its ability to maximize the use of Runes.

On Essence, his strength comes from the Source, and more importantly, from Runes. The path of gene Evolution is merely elevating the convenient use of Runes to another level.

However, after learning that [Steel Armor King] possessed an ability called “Flesh Assimilation,” Su Hao became interested in the Evolution of [Steel Armor King].

What does “Flesh Assimilation” mean?

For ordinary [Steel Armor Kings], it means a free attack and defense domain. Their strength can undergo a certain qualitative change, even becoming somewhat invincible, no longer easily killed.

But for Su Hao, it’s more than that. He’s thinking of a “Rune Domain.”

Within the range of his Blood Qi, it is his world, and he calls the shots.

He can make the entire domain burn with raging flames, or be a high-voltage electric net, or a domain of strong light, or a dark domain, or even a death rotation, or a collapse force field that makes enemies unable to stand steadily.

These are all offensive methods; healing is also possible. If allies within the range are injured, they can be remotely healed directly using “Healing.”

If his plan succeeds, he will completely dominate the land and sky domains.

No one will be his match.

Perhaps, even the so-called Level Seven Evolved Humans will be forced to their knees upon entering his domain!

According to Yashan, the range of the domain depends on Blood Qi strength. So, with Su Hao’s immense Blood Qi strength, how large a range can he support?

Su Hao is also looking forward to it, and with the Evolution to [Steel Armor King], his Blood Qi strength will undoubtedly reach a new height.

“Not only that, but with Assimilated Steel, many of the operations I’ve envisioned can be realized. What I need to figure out now is which abilities I need to try to activate in the second stage of Evolution.”

Su Hao already has a plan for this.

“According to Yashan, if the hardness of the assimilated Objectives by Assimilated Steel is too high, assimilation will fail. Generally, soft soil is chosen as the assimilation target. So…”

Su Hao quickly thought of the blind spots in the thinking of the people in this world.

First, can living beings be assimilated?

Second, the air is everywhere, and Essence is also a substance. Can the air be assimilated?

Third, can the dissolved cells be recycled again?

If these three points are successful, Su Hao will gain three abilities respectively: the first is ‘Puppet Control’, the second is ‘Air Manipulation’, and the third is ‘Body Elementalization’.

After listing all the precautions, Su Hao set up some trigger Runes in his Laboratory and then took out the flesh and blood of [Steel Armor King] and swallowed it without hesitation.

Then, without checking the Pinball Space, he quietly waited for his body to complete the evolution automatically.

The Pinball Space would automatically record everything that happened to him, and it wouldn’t be too late to check slowly after the evolution was completely successful.

Soon, with a shiver, drowsiness struck, and Su Hao fell into a deep sleep.

As for why sleep is required for every evolution, Su Hao had also done some research.

Most organisms experience DNA breaks or damage when they are awake and active during the day, while sleep produces two proteins, RAD52 and Ku80, which repair damaged DNA.

Lack of sleep prevents DNA from being repaired in time, thus accelerating aging and reducing cell lifespan…

This made Su Hao attach more importance to sleep. Eating well and drinking well is not enough; he also needs to sleep well!

Buy the most luxurious bed, use the softest quilt!

Be super healthy!

…

An hour later, Su Hao woke up. He immediately checked his physical condition.

Unscathed!

The Blood Qi consumption was higher than before, but not by much. It was not a big problem.

His body sent a prompt that he needed to eat ravenously, as if he hadn’t eaten for days.

His height had grown by nearly ten centimeters, reaching almost two meters. This was the tallest he had ever been, and the view from up high was indeed different.

His physique had become more robust, with his chest, waist, and neck circumference increasing by a full circle.

“Let’s try transforming into [Steel Armor King]!”

The next moment, Su Hao’s body rapidly ascended like a balloon.

His skin darkened, and thick, steel-plate-like armor began to form, covering his entire body tightly, leaving only openings for his mouth, nose, and ears.

Then, it began to grow and change shape, forming armor lines, with its contours gradually becoming distinct.

Head armor, neck armor, chest armor, shoulder armor, arm armor…

Piece by piece, the steel armor scales were clearly defined!

This is a small “Gundam”!

Su Hao’s transformation form was different from Yashan’s, because during the transformation process, Su Hao intentionally or unintentionally guided “some” catalysts, shaping it according to his own ideas.

The objective was just one word – cool!

The aim was to shock the enemy the moment he appeared.

As for Yashan, transforming by instinct, his form couldn’t be called ugly, just unremarkable.

“Next, engrave the runes!”

Soon, beautiful patterns began to be engraved from his chest, gradually spreading all over his body.

“Hardness” activated!

The armor on his entire body darkened slightly, and the activation was successful!

Then Su Hao tested the abilities of “Bone Demon” one by one.

He skillfully used them all.

Let’s try “Flesh Assimilation” next.

Su Hao didn’t crouch down; he just stood still as a large number of cells were decomposed and entered the ground.

Soon, a gray substance spread rapidly on the ground, like bacterial corrosion, covering the entire laboratory. The entire laboratory floor became as soft as jelly, and extremely bouncy.

“Next, let’s try engraving runes on the assimilated steel.”

Su Hao concentrated his attention, controlling the distant assimilated steel to slowly deform and create hollow patterns.

“Level Two – Strong Light”!

The moment Su Hao channeled his blood energy into the rune, a burst of strong light flashed.

“The Rune Domain is complete!”

Su Hao’s eyes were filled with undisguised excitement.

Although the distance is far, the control is greatly reduced, and it cannot be generated quickly, but he can shorten the process of activating the domain Rune through continuous practice.

Su Hao’s eyes flashed with a bright light: “Moreover, I can hand over the control of the domain to Little Light, and let Little Light complete the generation of the domain Rune for me. Just like controlling Blood Qi to make Gene Modification fluid!”

With Little Light around, he could do anything he wanted! Many complex operations could be easily achieved, and Little Light was Su Hao’s best assistant, bar none.

For the next Moon, Su Hao was in the second stage of Evolution, and could try to activate other Evolved Human abilities.

“But there’s no rush, let’s fill my stomach first, I’m starving.”

Thinking this, Su Hao immediately yelled: “Yashan!!!”

Yashan, who was practicing shaping his cleaver, was startled by Su Hao’s shout.

He immediately ran towards the Laboratory, saying as he ran: “Coming, coming, Boss Wei, you’re looking for me?”

Su Hao immediately said: “Hurry up and cook, the more the better.”

Yashan immediately perked up and ran to the kitchen after responding.

This was something Yashan was proud of, he had conquered Boss Wei’s stomach with his skills.

Taini immediately ran out of the study room, looking at Yashan expectantly: “Dad, can I help you?”

Yashan was about to say yes, but suddenly remembered something, put on a stern face, and said seriously: “No need, I can do it alone. Hurry back to your studies, no slacking!”

Taini was confused! It wasn’t like this before, was it?
