The Only Aura User In Magic World
Chapter 469 - Fighting The Transformed GooChapter 469 – Fighting The Transformed Goo
A brown goo turned into a dinosaur. And now, there's a possibility of that dinosaur to use magic and destroy everything.
So, we can only fight by letting Celestine take care of the dinosaur's magic to not destroy the dungeon, while I will fight upfront.
And although I hate the Professor, I want to have faith in this modified room that it can endure the attack of the dinosaur.
The dinosaur the brown goo transformed to was called ankylosaurus. A dinosaur with spiked shell armor on its body, with a tail that seems powerful and a bulge at the tip. Like a bludgeon.
The swung of that tail was enough to destroy a cage made of glass. In fact, even a baby with a stone might be able to break that glass. Why is it a normal glass and not reinforced glass? Did they have enough faith in their ability to not make this goo to attack them?
I don't think this monster is something summoned from the Monsters World. And it's not tamed from the wild as well. It must be from the experiment they conducted.
For now, while dodging the dinosaur's attack, let's see closely inside of the dinosaur.
…it's all just brown goo. There's no inner organ at all. Does it mean that they can't be defeated? I doubt it.
The Professor wanted the Black Slime, Victoria. It's because of the experiment that makes people in the village back then to not have the need of meal, water, and would never get tired. But it was still possible to kill them.
Even the Blobbies can be destroyed easily. Maybe for this goo, I need to destroy it like that.
I keep dodging the tail of the dinosaur, and finally, I made my move.
With Reizpear, I stabbed the blade on the base of the tail. The butt of the dinosaur.
But as it's just a goo without any inner organ, it seems like it doesn't feel any pain at all. And it keeps trying to attack me with its tail.
"Celestine! Victoria! Any idea on how to defeat this thing?"
I asked the two who are here with me if they know how to handle the enemy.
"Destroying it again and again until it won't recover anymore," Victoria said.
"How about using your gas to make it sleep?" Celestine suggested.
"I'll try!" I said.
Victoria's idea is basically the same as mine. But Celestine's idea might worth a shot.
I used air magic to concentrate a lot of sleeping gas inside three Blobbygrenades, and threw them toward the dinosaur while stepping back.
As the three grenades hit the dinosaur all at the same time, I had Victoria destroy her clones. The gas will spread as close as possible to the dinosaur, while we don't have to worry since I protected us with my air magic.
And the result was disappointing. The dinosaur didn't even react at all and continue smashing its tail anywhere inside the room. Though the room has dent in various places, it still able to endure the dinosaur's attack.
"Roy, I'll try stopping its movement!" Celestine said.
Inside a room? Well, with her metal manipulation magic, she should be able to do it.
The room was made by some sort of reinforced metal. But with Celestine's magic, she can use this place for her advantage.
Though it seems like manipulating metal is so tiring for her. The expert level mage who can split the ground is tired from using metal manipulation. I need to make sure we succeeded in stopping it and defeat it quickly.
The metal all over the room turned into a chain that stopped the dinosaur's limbs from moving. Including the tail.
"Finish it, Roy!" Celestine shouted.
Like usual, if one hit can't finish the enemy, I need to hit it more. And since piercing attack is useless, slashing attack should be similar as well. That's why I transformed Victoria into a hammer and smashed the dinosaur until it got flattened on the ground.
"It's not working!" I said.
"What are you talking about? Isn't it totally being crushed?" Celestine asked curiously.
"That's its original form! The brown goo from before! I keep smashing it each time it moves or trying to change its shape! I'll try burning it this time."
This time, I used air magic to create a flammable gas around the goo. Since I crushed it over and over again, the goo turned small. But it will return back to its dinosaur form if I stopped attacking.
After creating the gas, I took a flint from my pocket to light a fire, and throw it to the goo. I'm not a fire mage, so this is what I can do.
Seems like fire is quite effective. Should I call someone else to do the job?
Just when I think so, the goo turned into a human form. A naked man.
"Hey! Are you okay!?"
Seriously, that goo we fought was a human experiment? That Professor is truly crazy.
No matter what, that Professor need to be killed. Once we have gathered information from him, I will be happy to kill him.
The goo that turned into a human didn't say anything. And looked at me with hostility, so I jumped back while blocking his fist with Victoshield.
Wait, what is this pressure? It's much stronger than even Orc Emperor's punch! Only gigantic monster can have this much strength in their fists! And it's on the body of a human being?
I got blown away to the wall and leave a huge crack. For someone who is confident with his physical ability, that was a huge shock. But I quickly regain my footing.
"Roy! Are you okay!?" Celestine asked.
"I am. That goo turned into a human, but his inner organ is dying. There's nothing we can do to help him. I will kill him. You just need to protect me." I said.
During the short moment since he throws his fist at me, I managed to analyze his inner organ. And it returned back to a normal human's organ. Other than its deteriorating quickly. He's dying.
The worst part is that there are two hearts inside. I know very well that they are the hearts of human beings. One heart is the size of an adult, while the other is a heart the size of a child.
Which means, the Professor is experimenting with children. Something that neither Celestine nor I will ever forgive.
That's why I told Celestine that I will be the one to kill the dying man in front of us. But that man didn't go down without a fight.
He finally used it. Earth magic. And since the metal in this room has been used to restrain him, he can freely manipulate the earth.
Though Celestine was quick to react. She seems to be weaker than the man in front of us. So, it's another artificial master level mage. Though this one is probably still in testing period. Unlike the previous mohawk girl.
"I can't hold it much longer! Roy, kill him!" Celestine shouted.
"I will."
While Celestine holding the room we're in so the enemy's earth magic can't be used to attack us, I charged at him with Reizpear in hand. When the blade of the spear touched his chest, I feel quite a lot of resistance. It's as if he's wearing a powerful armor even though he's naked. It's his skin.
Still, I didn't give up and pour more strength and Aura into my attack. And I finally managed to pierce his heart. Just one of them. The big heart inside the body.
This time, he feels the pain. Unlike back when it's a dinosaur.
He should have died. But he has two hearts. Leaving his smaller heart still beating in the chest. The right chest.
"Did we do it?" Victoria asked.
"We'll see."
"You're not going to finish him?"
"We'll see."
"You keep saying we'll see twice. What will we see? Oh!?"
Victoria then noticed what I meant. I also didn't think that it would turn this way.
The human I stabbed, turned small. Now, he's just a child. Seems like after piercing the big heart, leaving the small heart, it will make him turned into a small child.
If my guess is correct, then this child form is the child that was experimented. And the adult form was the adult who was experimented. They were fused into one and turned into a brown goo that can change shape.
"It's a child!"
Celestine shouted and hurriedly approached the dying boy. Like I said before the inner organs is deteriorating quickly. Even now, it's impossible to revive him even with my medical knowledge from the future.
"…Roy, made him swallow a Blobby," Victoria said.
"You mean forcing him to stay alive with Blobbies inside as substitute for his organs? That might work."
I realize what Victoria wanted to do, so I did as she said. I had her create a Blobby and made the boy swallow it. After a while, the Blobby inside the body started changing shape and became the boy's new inner organ. I hope the boy can still survive after this.
Though I don't know if he still regains his memory. Is it the memory of the child, or the memory of the adult? We don't know.
What I can do is bring him to Varadis and hopefully, if he's being brainwashed, Russell can undo it.
"They finally did it…" I said to myself.
"Using children for experiment? They have done it from a long time ago," Celestine said.
"That too, but that's not what I meant. That dinosaur we fought before. If it's just me, it's nearly impossible to win against that dinosaur before it transformed into a human. They have finally created a secret weapon against Aura users. If this is the completed version, they should be easy to defeat with the help of the others. I hope that's the case."
A goo that doesn't feel pain, and can continuously attack using its body and even magic. Most Aura users during Victoria's and Sonia's era will be defeated by such things. I guess this Evil God is still afraid of Aura users even after exterminating all of them.
I need to figure out a way to defeat such things again in the future.
Anyway, what about the others? Are they also fighting goo? I guess I will visit them for now. If there are other similar rooms like this one that they entered, there might be other letters from the Professor. If not, that mean the Professor has some way to tell that we will enter this room. Or he thinks that there will be a group that will investigate the whole place, so he can just put a letter in random place and wait until someone took it.
I can't wait to kill him.. But before that, we need to collect information from him.
