Todd put the dragon bone on Alfonso, then dressed him in metal armor and began testing the effects of the new equipment.
Looking at the parasitic limbs wriggling on his body in the cold wind, the latter first tried to use the dragon bone to absorb the cold air from the outside environment, following Todd's instructions.
In just over ten seconds, a thick layer of frost formed on Alfonso's metal armor, making it look as if he was wearing an "ice armor" on the outside.
Todd reached out and tapped Alfonso's ice armor. The hardness and protective power made him nod with delight: "The modified dragon bone can condense cold air to form a new protective layer on the surface of the armor. Combined with the user's own superpower, the dragon bone's own defensive power, and the metal armor, the inheritor has four layers of protection. Unless it is a large siege weapon or a gunpowder weapon, it is difficult for anything to penetrate these protections."
Alfonso moved his legs and said with satisfaction, "The sluggishness I felt before has disappeared. Now, no matter what the movement is, it's effortless."
Todd then had Alfonso test the keel's regenerative deformation and the honeycomb infrasound communication capabilities.
The former can extend, deform, and coil the keel into various shapes, not only as an attack mode, but also as a defense mode, and even as a marching mode for climbing cliffs.
As for infrasound communication cellular systems, on the one hand, the communication distance is extended from the original 50 meters to 1.8 kilometers, and on the other hand, silent transmission of sound waves is achieved, effectively avoiding detection by the attacker. The only drawback is that infrasound can still cause harm to the human body. If the vibration frequency and power of the cellular system are not properly controlled, it can cause nausea, dizziness, and weakness in the limbs of the communicator, and in severe cases, it can even lead to shock.
Leaving the upgraded dragonbone to the Royal Guard, Todd returned to his own building first.
Rachel was busy tidying up the dishes when she saw Todd return and said, "You're back just in time."
Todd asked, somewhat puzzled, "What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
"Anyway, don't ask so many questions yet. Just switch to tyrant mode."
Although Todd was completely confused, he still evolved into the monster form according to Rachel's instructions.
Looking at the massive mutant in front of him, whose head could almost touch the ceiling, Rachel said thoughtfully, "Just as I thought..."
Todd looked puzzled.
Rachel raised her hand and reached towards Todd's head, asking him, "Don't you think you're taller and bigger now than when you came out of the Dark Gate?"
Upon hearing this, Todd gestured to his own dimensions and realized that Rachel was right. His original monster form was only two meters tall, but now it was over three meters, and significantly larger than before.
Rachel examined Todd's monstrous form closely and finally couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Looking at you like this, you're like a giant lizard covered in steel."
Todd had a sudden thought, as if he had remembered something, but then he couldn't remember what it was.
Seeing that Todd had returned to normal, Rachel asked, "Why do you think the evolved form would change?"
Todd scratched his head: "I'm not quite sure. I hadn't noticed this before. Maybe it's related to long-term exposure to the Tyrant virus?"
Rachel rolled her eyes at him: "Listen to what you're saying, 'I don't know, I didn't pay attention,' don't you ever care about your own strength and abilities?"
Todd was a little confused; he didn't understand why Rachel had brought up this topic.
"On the battlefield, the soldiers' primary task is to protect their commander's survival. Distributing the best equipment to the soldiers is indeed the commander's responsibility. But the commander himself should also have the ability to protect himself." Rachel crossed his arms and looked Todd up and down. "A wise commander will wear the strongest armor, take the sharpest weapon, and ride the fastest horse, rather than entrusting his life to the protection of others."
Todd was starting to understand what Rachel was thinking: "You want me to improve my ability to protect myself?"
“Your Majesty, my Your Majesty, look at what you’ve been through all these years!” Rachel looked somewhat annoyed: “The Elders’ attack, the trials of the Shadow Kingdom, the gladiatorial arena of Ulster… I bet no other king on the entire continent has had a more ‘colorful’ life than you!”
"Sometimes you're adorably smart, but other times you're so silly it's heartbreaking." Rachel's sharp tongue left Todd somewhat defenseless.
The latter simply indicated to Rachel that she should speak frankly.
Rachel pointed at Todd's body and said to him, "One is the enhancement of the Tyrant form, which we can't find the reason for right now, so we can only put it aside for the time being; the other is a way to protect yourself... if I remember correctly, you already have more than a dozen superpowers in your body, right?"
Todd gave the other party a precise answer: "To be precise, it should be thirteen."
"I remember you told me that although Tyrant Heirs (inheritors modified by the Tyrant Virus) can accept more than ten different superpowers, the strength of their superpowers will decrease as the number of superpowers in their bodies increases?"
"That's right. Because an organism's own immune capacity has an upper limit, the total amount of mutant bacteria that a Tyrant's successor can accommodate is limited. For example, if the total amount of mutant bacteria my body can hold is 1000 milliliters, and I have ten types of mutant bacteria in my body, then each type of mutant bacteria can only be 100 milliliters; if I have five types of mutant bacteria in my body, then the number of each type of mutant bacteria is about 200 milliliters, and the power of the natural bacteria is twice that of the former."
