Chapter 640 Weapons against the Undead

Which brings us yet again with another option..."

she waved her hand and a lab assistant stepped forward with a tray carrying different tubes, some in glasses and others in clay containers that had a bunch of different substances within.

Nikky stood before the gathered leaders, holding a test tube filled with Hydrofluoric acid. Her eyes gleamed with enthusiasm as she explained the properties of the corrosive substance.

"This is Hydrofluoric acid," she began, her voice resonating with confidence. "It's corrosive, capable of destroying tissue, bone, and even glass. HF readily penetrates human skin, allowing it to decalcify bone and destroy soft tissues underneath. It's a powerful tool."

Crusher, leaning against a nearby table, chuckled skeptically. "Planning to use that on the undead, are you? If those shells are as tough as you say, that won't be enough."

Nikky met his skepticism with a determined gaze. "We need unconventional solutions. Acid might not take them down alone, but combined with other tactics, we can weaken them. We have to be creative in our approach."

The room fell silent for a moment as the leaders absorbed Nikky's bold proposal and Crusher's doubtful response.

Nikky grinned with confidence, "Don't worry, our lab is the foremost in the world. We've already considered this problem and have a solution. With a little guidance from Elder Zod here, we utilized a substance only bred by the Giant Shadow Werewolves. I'm talking about none other than this." She wore gloves this time, revealing the pepper still wrapped in a transparent leather bag.

Perseus frowned slightly; he recognized it as Sun's Uncle, the pepper he had used to undergo a painful training session.

Nikky continued her explanation, "We've extracted specific properties from Sun's Uncle and amplified them a thousand times. Afterward, we mixed it with the acid and incubated it with certain runes, following Elder Zod's guidance. And now, we have this!"

She waved her hand again, and another test tube was brought to her. Even Nikky refrained from holding this one directly, opting for a rod instead. The leaders watched with a mix of curiosity and skepticism as the ambitious plan unfolded.

She carefully opened the substance and then she instructed that the second tube containing the undead be opened.

This undead was not like the previous one. This one was not humanoid in nature.

It was more like a spider. However, it was several times bigger than one.

In fact, this spider could rip off a human head in one bite of those huge mandibles.

It had a big hole in its chest, the kind that a beast of its kind should not have survived from.

Although what could penetrate its very steel hard shell was not known, it did not matter at the moment.

Immediately the creature was released from its restraint, it staggered forward. Two of its legs was missing, but that did not stop it from moving.

It turned towards Nikky, the six compound eyes on its weirdly shaped head all glowing in a purple light as it crawled for her.

"Awwn! Its so cute!" Nikky remarked making all in attendance raise a brow as they looked at her, especially, Scarface, her father.

*cough* she corrected herself. "its absolutely disgusting!

Nikky carefully approached the undead spider creature, which loomed like a grotesque shadow, its legs twitching in a semblance of life. With deliberate precision, she began pouring the concoction from the test tube onto the creature's body. The substance, a corrosive blend of hydrofluoric acid and the potent properties of Sun's Uncle, dripped onto the undead spider's chitinous exoskeleton.

As soon as the mixture made contact, an audible sizzle filled the air, accompanied by a pungent smell that stung the nostrils. The corrosive liquid wasted no time in its voracious assault on the undead spider. The acid, fortified by the amplified properties of Sun's Uncle, burrowed through the creature's tough exterior, eating into it with fervor.

The spider's exoskeleton, once hard and resilient, now succumbed to the relentless onslaught. It began to bubble and warp, emitting an acrid odor as the corrosive substance worked its way through the undead creature's body. The grotesque sight unfolded before the onlookers, the creature's form slowly dissolving into a melting horror.

The acidic mixture continued its work, reducing the once-menacing creature to a grotesque, liquefied mass. The stench of the melting exoskeleton filled the air as the undead spider succumbed to the potent combination, its demise a testament to the ingenuity of the sanctuary's scientific endeavors.

Behold, the power of the mixture of science and magic." Nikky chuckled at her own words.

Crusher looked at this and nodded. "Impressive!" he suddenly stood up from his sit, "since we are all showing off our achievements, then I don't mind showing off a bit too! Crusher signaled to Insect-Bee. She nodded as the antenna on her head moved a bit. A giant ant the size of a car suddenly approached. As it did, the residence aside from elder zod and elder isiah did not show fear. Those two were still very new to the territory. Then again, insect-bee's Chimera ants were a part of the territory and acted as guards.

As the giant ant approached, its massive size commanded attention, and the ominous glow emanating from its posterior region added an air of mystery to its presence. The gray flame flickered with an ethereal quality, casting a subdued radiance in the dimly lit chamber. The residents, accustomed to the presence of Chimera ants, watched with a mixture of curiosity and anticipation.

Crusher, standing tall and proud, directed the attention of the gathering to the colossal insect. "Allow me to introduce you to a little creation of mine," he coughed, "I mean of my darling wife and I, he announced, a smug grin playing on his face. Insect-Bee, with an air of confidence, stood beside the giant ant, her antennae betraying a sense of control over the creature.

The giant ant's glow intensified, and Crusher continued, "This is the Flameborne Ant. Through a combination of Insect_Bee's abilities, some of lenny's DNA, and some of his special preserved White flame, I've bestowed upon it the power to control and manipulate flames." The gray flames danced and swirled, seemingly under the ant's command, as if it held the very essence of fire within its oversized form.

The residents, although accustomed to the fantastical nature of their sanctuary, couldn't help but be impressed by the display of Crusher's creation. The Flameborne Ant stood as a testament to the diverse and formidable forces at their disposal in the face of the impending threat.

With a confident stride, Crusher approached the front of the Flameborne Ant, ready to demonstrate another aspect of his creation. He extended his hand beneath the ant's mouth, and the colossal insect responded by secreting a slimy substance onto his palm. The slime formed a protective membrane, creating a barrier between Crusher's skin and the external environment.

The onlookers watched in awe as Crusher, seemingly unfazed, then gestured for the Flameborne Ant to unleash its gray flames onto his protected hand. The gray flames danced and flickered, casting an eerie glow in the room, but miraculously, Crusher's hand remained unscathed. The protective membrane provided an effective shield against the intense heat.

A triumphant grin spread across Crusher's face as he enjoyed the reaction of the audience. Not content with mere demonstration, he motioned to the lab attendants to bring forth an undead creature for the next part of the spectacle. The attendants swiftly responded, presenting another undead creature before Crusher.

Without hesitation, Crusher directed the Flameborne Ant to unleash its formidable flames upon the undead creature. The gray flames engulfed the creature, demonstrating the lethal capabilities of this unique creation. The onlookers marveled at the display, realizing the potential strategic advantage Crusher's Flameborne Ant could offer in the upcoming battle against the encroaching forces of the Undead.

"It gets even better!" Insect-Bee chimed in, drawing attention back to the ongoing demonstration. All eyes turned to Crusher as he prepared to showcase another layer of the Flameborne Ant's capabilities. With a nod from Insect-Bee, Crusher repeated the process. However, this time around, he combined the gray flames with his own darkline magic. The fusion of these elements resulted in a dazzling display as the flames burned even brighter, now infused with the ominous energy of dark magic.

Eager to push the boundaries, Crusher gestured for yet another undead creature to be brought forward. However, the lab assistants informed him that they had run out of undead creatures for the demonstration. Crusher, confident and prepared, assured them, "Don't worry, I came prepared!"

Insect-Bee swiftly darted out of the laboratory, and within moments, she returned, towing along an undead beast of giant proportions. The creature, visibly inanimate and eerie, seemed ready to face the combined forces of Crusher's gray flames and darkline magic. The anticipation in the room was palpable as everyone braced for the next phase of this extraordinary display...
