The Cockroach-like Girl Is My Beast

Chapter 667 488: Sudden Resonance and Mutated Ore Disease_3

But... why aren't there data analyzers or processors here?

Zumama's gaze was somewhat unexpected: "Indeed."

"You can actually tell?"

In the next moment, the red-haired girl couldn't hold herself back and rushed forward.

"I'll go first!"

She stood firmly on the scanner.

The next moment, the machine hummed and officially started.

An invisible force field swirled around Remyu.

Almost simultaneously.

She casually picked up a nearby large spanner, grabbed a metal plate, and sat in front of the lathe.

The next moment, she started using the spanner to strike the unassuming metal plate, paired with the lathe, to perform an incomprehensible [forging].

Clang!

Zumama's indigo eyes suddenly shone with a tangible brilliance.

Everyone felt a strange power surge from Zumama's body.

All the machinery, electronic devices, and power supply instruments in the room resonated, bursting with lively cries as ethereal fluctuations reflected through the space.

With the spanner's strikes and the lathe's operation, the chunk of spirit gold rapidly transformed and twisted, as if enveloped in a crystalline ethereal glow.

Besides Remyu on the platform, the other three girls displayed somewhat puzzled expressions.

What is she doing?

Hammering metal during scanning?

Liko explained: "That's the master creating a file that only she can read from the scanned information! Though I don't understand how, I can't seem to learn it myself."

"It's probably her trait or secret technique."

However, Lin Guang suddenly widened his eyes, showing an incredulous expression.

"...!!"

— What did he see?

— How is this possible?!

Not long after, Remyu finished scanning and hopped down from the scanner.

Serpent put down the spanner, looked at the abstract metal chunk with a crystalline feel in her hand, then looked at Remyu, revealing a somewhat surprised expression: "Is this perhaps big sister's..."

She thought for a moment, without continuing, instead looking at the remaining few.

Vishdair showed a look of interest and went up next.

...…

In just a short while, the data of the four girls was scanned, leaving only the silent Lin Guang.

Lisa stepped down from the scanner.

Vishdair patted his shoulder: "Your turn... By the way, what's wrong? Your expression has been strange since earlier."

And at this moment, Lin Guang finally sighed, shaking his head.

"I know now."

The next moment, he also stepped up.

Then—

With the scanner's hum, just as Serpent was preparing to swing the spanner again, she was suddenly taken aback.

"What..."

Thump thump.

Thump thump.

Thump thump.

Almost instantly, accompanied by an indescribable heartbeat, the entire room began to shake violently.

Everyone's expressions changed dramatically.

Lin Guang's body began to shine with a dark golden light, filling the entire room.

Then—

Serpent's body also started to glow.

In an instant, the metal chunk before her eyes began to rapidly sprout black crystal clusters, instantly enveloping it.

— It was Source Stone Crystal!

This was not the end.

In an instant, almost all the furnishings in the room began to grow Source Stone crystals.

At the same time, Lin Guang's dark golden radiance and Zumama's blue-black glow intertwined without any repulsion, almost as if they were communicating.

Tremendous information seemed to bypass the scanner, constructing a protocol between them, transmitting mutually.

"What is going on!"

Chelina, Vishdair, and Lisa almost simultaneously drew their weapons from the void, their expressions extremely serious.

Lin Guang couldn't have gone mad for no reason.

What's happening?!

Is this guy a Terran, resonating mysteriously again?

Why say 'again'?

Liko was also incredibly surprised: "Master!"

However, this phenomenon lasted less than ten seconds before completely dissipating.

The other Source Stone Crystals quickly faded away, leaving only the chunk of metal before Zumama.

And at this moment, only Lin Guang and Zumama were facing each other.

Both displayed a complex look of astonishment.

Lin Guang glanced at the metal chunk still carrying a hint of dark golden tone on Zumama's lathe, exhaled: "So that's it."

At this moment.

His Eye of Omniscience and Omnipotence finally saw what had been on Zumama's panel, previously obscured due to low level, and spoke: "You have a mutated Ore Disease."

"You've retained your [Source Stone Craft]."

— As soon as this sentence was spoken, except for Remyu and Liko who were somewhat puzzled, the other three girls' pupils suddenly contracted.

...…

Lin Guang looked at the wide-eyed Zumama, turning to the panel only visible to him.

[Status: Ore Disease (Moderate)]

[Trait: I think it can work]

[Trait: Automation]

In truth, Lin Guang had been somewhat puzzled before.

A Tier Five Perfect Spiritual Artifact demands extremely high standards from the creator, requiring both skill and luck.

Spiritual Artifacts were born from the civilization of Spirit Masters.

Even if Zumama might be quite gifted in creation, the barriers of knowledge and hardware are unavoidable factors.

How did she achieve her current accomplishments in just ten short years?

Or, what specifically does her forging special ability manifest in?

At this moment, Lin Guang finally understood that it was not just due to her mastery of steel and spirit ether.

But more importantly, because she can, in a sense, utilize the Source Stone within her!
