I have a Synthesizer

Before parting, Klein walked up to Joe again and handed him a notebook.

Joe looked at Klein strangely, took the notebook, and flipped through it. It seemed to be a magic notebook.

"Brother, what is this?"

"This is called 'Shadow Extension'. Even in the J Society's books, there are very few records and developments. Take it back and study it carefully.

You only have the ability of bone extension. You should have felt your lack of combat power and ability shortcomings in this mission, right?"

Joe nodded silently. With just bone extension, his ability was indeed a bit limited.

He also possessed the talent of Undead Will, but he hadn't properly developed the shadow-type aspect.

"'Shadow Extension' can just make up for your lack of attack power. Cultivate it well, and it can make up for your own shortcomings very well.

If there's anything you don't understand, just study it slowly yourself. If that doesn't work, then just practice blindly. Anyway, I don't have time to explain it to you. You shouldn't die from practicing."

What a 'shouldn't die from practicing'. Truly worthy of being my own brother. However, Joe was sincerely grateful that Klein could give him a magic notebook.

"Thank you, brother. I will cultivate hard."

When the group dispersed from Klein, Joe would always glance at Klein from time to time, and then look at Lance and Lilith.

The meaning in his eyes was obvious: Are you sure you don't want to follow? What if the captain is snatched away by this Alan?

However, Klein had no interest in paying attention to him at all. How could Lance, this ultimate simp for Marian, be interested in Lilith, who was on a small scale?

He turned around and walked deeper into the wilderness. The purpose of his outing had not yet been completed, so he took this opportunity to go out and deal with it himself.

......

Two days later, in the medical department of the J Society in the Imperial City, Becky woke up slowly.

She subconsciously moved her right hand. It was cold and stiff, but it was definitely there. She could feel the movement of her fingers, but the sense of touch was not obvious.

"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!" The sound of mechanical friction appeared on her right hand. Becky moved her right hand in front of her eyes.

Looking at her right arm, Becky's eyes narrowed.

This was a brand-new, completely mechanized arm. The streamlined design was full of beauty.

Immediately afterwards, Becky first touched her right face with her palm. It was also cold, stiff, and had the same metallic texture.

Then, she lifted her quilt and saw her whole body.

Her naked body could no longer be called a complete human. The entire right half of her body was made of a special metal.

Getting out of bed, Becky felt a little indescribable in her heart. Although she was saved, anyone who turned from a complete human into what she was now would feel very complicated, let alone that she was a woman, a once beautiful woman.

Activating her Qi Sea, the right side of her body could actually transmit Holy Dou Qi very well, and the power on the right side was much greater than before.

Moreover, needless to say, the metal body was much harder than her original body.

She picked up the hospital gown placed by the bed, put it on, and walked out of the medical room.

Walking on the stone slab walkway of the J Society, Becky carefully felt the touch that her right body brought her.

Although it was cold, it did not deprive her of her senses.

At this time, Becky's mechanized right brain connected with her original brain, and some pain occurred in her spirit, will, and soul.

Her mechanized right eyeball flickered with a large number of magic patterns and imprints, and slightly emitted some cyan-white light.

Becky's eyes began to become dull, and she muttered to herself.

"The reason for becoming what I am now is Esmonde's order. He destroyed everything about me.

I was saved by Klein! He selflessly helped me and gave me a new life.

I am Lord Klein's servant, the Mechanical Holy Knight, Becky."

Until she finished speaking, the magic patterns in Becky's right eye stopped rotating, and her expression gradually returned to normal.

"I now need to report to Lord Esmonde first."

......

Esmonde looked at Becky in front of him. It was a surprise to him that a beautiful Holy Knight had become like this.

The ability of this mechanized life form sounded a bit bizarre and was a technology that the J Society had not yet mastered.

"Thank you for your hard work this time."

Becky shook her head and began to describe the process of this mission in detail.

"It's okay. Although the price paid was great, I also obtained a lot of important information.

The population disappearance incident in the southern suburbs was jointly caused by some Dark Crusaders and Skull Society members.

They also wore a large number of soul fragments, but the enemies that appeared have been wiped out by us.

The bone-eater beast swarm in the southern suburbs was finally repelled by me with the Candle Demon Sword, and my body became like this because of the corrosion of the Candle Demon Sword.

I don't know much about what happened afterwards. I only know that my life should have been saved by Perona of the Red and White Society.

Regarding the abilities that Klein displayed, what I currently know is bone-type magic extension, a very powerful shadow ability, and a good close combat ability. He has only displayed these abilities so far."

Everything Becky said was true, without the slightest bit of falsehood. Klein did not have any restrictions on Becky in this regard.

Esmonde nodded to Becky.

"Very good, your report is very detailed and is sufficient. Oh, yes, there is one more thing.

It's about that little mage Perona of the Red and White Society. I heard that she summoned a mechanical life form.

Then you said that she used this mechanical life form magic to save you, so Becky, I would like to hear your own views on mechanical life form technology. Is that acceptable?"

Leaving aside other things, Esmonde was really very concerned about the development of the J Society. He was really interested in mechanical life forms.

"No problem, sir. Everything I have belongs to the J Society."

Becky stretched out her right hand, and Holy Dou Qi appeared on her right arm.

"I feel that my strength and physical resilience have greatly improved, and the mechanical body does not affect the transmission of Dou Qi. From a combat perspective, it's almost perfect."

Esmond touched Becky's right arm and nodded.

"Can we invite that Perona?"

"My Lord, I'm afraid the Red and White Company won't let her go so easily."

Esmond nodded again.

"I understand. You can go back now."

"Yes, sir!"

After Becky left, Esmond spun his magic orb, lost in thought.

"Mechanical lifeform... I wonder if it's a mutation or a unique talent. It seems I have to try to acquire this Perona.

And Klein, that guy... why hasn't he returned for so long? Where did he go?"

......

In the suburbs, near the border of Skyrim Province, Klein stood before a pile of Fireblade Cultist corpses, finally breathing a sigh of relief.

For more than ten days, this was the third Fireblade Cult stronghold he had wiped out alone. Apart from some scattered belongings and absorbing some souls with the Book of Klein, he could almost say he had gained nothing.

The journey was mostly spent synthesizing flowers and plants every day to make some ethereal potions. It was incredibly boring.

"Damn it, finding a suitable fire-type mage is really not easy!"

Klein couldn't help but curse as he looked at the guy in front of him.

Because it wasn't until he killed this so-called Fireblade Cult genius that the Synthesizer finally gave him a notification.

【Acquired a Fire Mage's Soulstone】

Comparing the difficulty of obtaining the Fire Soulstone, Klein couldn't help but feel a bit emotional. Hector, the necromancer he killed before, was truly a genius among geniuses.

A Tier 2 necromancer possessing a magic item like Bones of the Undead and a spell like Banshee's Wail. No wonder he could absorb souls.

Compared to Hector, these Fireblade Cultists were simply trash. Klein killed hundreds of them and barely found one that met the criteria.

The condition for soul absorption should be talent in ancient magic. Only those who meet this talent have the qualifications to become a special Soulstone.

【New Soul Extension Available: Flame Lord. Extend?】

He had been waiting for this! No hesitation.

"Extend!"

The emotions, thoughts, memories, and spirit within the Fire Soulstone were all filtered out by the Synthesizer, leaving only the purest part: the soul talent for ancient magic.

【Infused with the power of the soul, your magic power has greatly increased from 315.4 to 317.9】

"So-called 'greatly increased,' huh? 2.5?"

Okay, maybe 2.5 magic power is a great increase for normal people.

【Soul Extension 3: Flame Lord】

Effect 1 - Flame Mastery: You possess the aptitude for elemental, fire-based spells.

Effect 2 - Combustion Stimulation: As you inject more magic power, the power of your fire spells will greatly increase.

Effect 3 - Fireball Burst: When your Fireball spell breaks the threshold of 10 magic power, it will transform into Fireball Burst. Fireball Burst will cause a violent explosion, ignoring the stability of the world.

"Phew, only 10 points for Fireball Burst? Not bad."

Klein let out a long breath and silently closed the Synthesizer. His combat system could finally be considered complete.

As for Extensions 4 and 5, he could put them aside for now. With the ability to use fire magic, he currently had no obvious weaknesses.

If there was anything lacking, it would be mobility.

"It's about time to go back!"

Just as Klein was conjuring a loaf of bread for himself, preparing to rest, an invisible magic beast resembling a praying mantis pounced from behind.

"Puchi!"

But before its arm could chop Klein's head, a dozen bone blades had already pierced its body.

Klein used his bone hand to drag the magic beast in front of him, lifting its chin.

"Tsk tsk, a rare species, the Invisible Wing Mantis. I just don't know if it can retain its invisibility ability. Don't screw it up!"

Klein placed his hand on the head of the Invisible Wing Mantis. In terms of destroying will, Shadow was still better than Fire. Directly setting it on fire would only kill it; it wouldn't achieve the effect of destroying its will.

Under Klein's Shadow torment, the Invisible Wing Mantis slowly lost its will, and its body was gradually sucked into the Synthesizer.

【You have obtained a Powerful Creature: Scythe Fiend】

Looking at the synthesis result, Klein looked constipated.

"Powerful... The Invisible Wing Mantis was already Powerful-grade. Does that count as a failed synthesis?"

Scythe Fiend in a Bottle

Grade: Magic Item

Effect: Shatter the bottle to release the Scythe Fiend inside.

Level: Tier 3 - A-Grade Powerful.

Attribute: Klein's Power - Fire

Description: A powerful creature with camouflaged skin that can hide in any environment, possessing a small amount of Klein's blood and power.

"Doesn't look very strong at all. Fortunately, it retained its hiding ability, or it would have been a real loss."

Without another word, Klein shattered the bottle and waited for the Scythe Fiend to return to its original form, then lay down on its back.

He really couldn't stand walking in the wilderness anymore. When he wandered alone in the wild, he was always attacked by all sorts of magic beasts.

Klein wasn't afraid of these magic beasts, but they annoyed him.

Summoning a Tier 3 Scythe Fiend could at least intimidate other small magic beasts and insects.

"Let's go to the nearby city first! Scythe Fiend."

The Scythe Fiend's legs pressed down, and the insect-like structure gave it powerful jumping ability. It suddenly jumped, flying into the sky like a cannonball.

Then, it glided in the air with a pair of wings. This was the Scythe Fiend's way of flying.

Klein originally wanted to lie on its back and rest, but after the Scythe Fiend's big jump, he honestly sat up, holding onto its back and starting to comfort himself.

"It's just a little bumpy, I'll get used to it."
