Drift Of The Multiverse: [Marvel] [Resident Evil] [DC] [Bleach] [DB] Chapter 445: Deathstrike? (BONUS)

Laura's request was very reasonable, and her reasons were unassailable.

Ethan was annoyed because he was not as handso as Arthur and was always overshadowed, so when he underwent enhancents, he kept optimizing his appearance.

He could say that the enhancent potions were for his own evolution, and optimizing his appearance was inherently part of that evolution.

In fact, even if these enhancent potions did not originally have the effect of optimizing appearance, Ethan would have found ways to add it in.

You could not say Ethan was too shallow. After all, good looks are very important in many worlds.

People with good looks always make a better first impression than those who do not.

As an adventurer who traveled through multiple worlds, he indeed needed an outstanding appearance.

Even without considering social interactions, no one wants to be ugly.

The original Laura would not have cared about this. Back then, she was a wild girl who had no contact with society and knew nothing.

But as she slowly grew up, under the guidance of excellent teachers like Selene and Annette, she had mastered all the knowledge she should, and understood all the things she should. It was impossible for her not to understand the concept of beauty and ugliness.

Originally, Laura was not too concerned about this, but as the number of crew mbers on the ship gradually increased, Laura discovered an awkward truth.

She seed to be the one with the lowest good looks.

Not to ntion the Captain, who had cheated by using enhancent potions, and Diana, who was a goddess.

The First Mate, who was her father in a sense, Logan, although often unkempt and prone to wandering around with ssy hair and a full beard, was actually a rugged, wild, and extrely masculine man. Coupled with his muscular physique, he was very attractive to won.

There was no need to ntion Selene and Ada. Even Evelyn, who joined later, had looks above average before receiving enhancents and beca even more beautiful after.

Originally, Laura could comfort herself by thinking she was still young and would beco more beautiful as she grew up.

As a result, she found that even Shirley was becoming more attractive, but she did not have this trend. Instead, she was gradually becoming ordinary.

If she had not known that her captain could formulate potions that optimized appearance, Laura, who saw handso n and beautiful won wandering around all day, would have beco depressed long ago.

Finally, when it was ti to use enhancent potions, how could she not make so reasonable requests and vent all the resentnt she had built up during this ti?

I want to be beautiful.

Also, that tal claw that pops out of her feet and seriously affects her image must be removed, or moved to her hands.

"Actually, it hurts quite a bit when it pops out of my hands too. Is there a way to make it not hurt?"

Ethan frowned and began to think of a solution. He knew that Wolverine's claws pierced through flesh and bone every ti they extended, which was like stabbing himself with a knife each ti he used them.

Although the ability to tolerate pain in the hands was much stronger than in so vital areas, no one was masochistic. If they had a choice, they would naturally prefer no pain.

"If you want it not to hurt, that's possible, but then it cannot extend from the back of your hand."

"Then from where?"

"Your fingernails."

Laura looked down at her fingernails. Having joined Ethan's team for so many years, she had indeed learned many things, especially when they went to the Marvel Universe. Tony Stark and Pepper Potts had given her, still a child then, all sorts of things, including clothes, shoes, toys, and so costics and jewelry.

Pepper had also taught her how to do makeup, but while living on the ship, she often had to practice combat skills or help with odd jobs, so she did not have much opportunity to truly try dressing up.

It was not until Ada joined later that she truly began to teach her how to use various costics to beautify herself.

Now, her fingernails were coated with transparent nail polish and specially trimd, looking crystal clear and slightly pinkish. They were made very pretty without affecting her ability to fight.

What would it look like if Adamantium claws extended from here? Would she not be able to wear nail polish anymore?

Ethan did not know what Laura was thinking, but continued to explain his idea.

"If that's the case, we'll need to make so special adjustnts to your tal claws, causing a fundantal change in their form."

As Ethan described it, Laura finally understood what his idea ant.

Logan, standing nearby, felt a sense of familiarity the more he listened. Wasn't this just like his brother, Sabretooth?

Sabretooth's abilities were basically the sa as Logan's. Both possessed a powerful healing factor, and in addition, both had a certain degree of bone mutation. Wolverine Logan could extend three long bone claws from his hands. Sabretooth's fingernails on all five fingers would slightly lengthen and beco harder and sharper.

Furthermore, Sabretooth's ability also made his teeth sharp, but Ethan did not plan to replicate this part.

Transferring the claw ability to the fingernails ant rapidly stimulating nail growth when used, without piercing her flesh. Naturally, it would not cause pain like stabbing herself. At most, her fingers might feel a bit itchy during rapid growth, but that was nothing at all.

"That sounds good."

Laura thought about it. Ethan's idea indeed t her requirents, and having her fingernails turn into claws on her fingertips would even be more convenient to use.

Actually, the solution Ethan first thought of was to make Laura similar to Deathstrike, because he rembered that Deathstrike's Adamantium claws extended from her fingernails.

Only after recalling the details did he rember that Deathstrike's claws, strictly speaking, extended from her fingertips and also had to pierce through flesh, not just a simple mutation and extension of the fingernails.

It seed the only type of fingernail mutation was like Sabretooth's, but Ethan always felt that Sabretooth's was not strong enough. Even if the fingernails turned into Adamantium, it still felt a bit lacking.

Therefore, when he was actually making the potion, he was still constantly adjusting it.

To ensure the potion's creation was successful on the first try and would not cause Laura dissatisfaction, he would ask Laura if she was satisfied every ti he made an adjustnt, and he would also ask Logan, who had more experience with various combat situations and mutant abilities, to ensure his ideas were not flawed.

This process took over half a month, and the final adjusted product had many changes compared to the initial discussion.

The newly adjusted final product would cause the two tal wolf claws on Laura's hands to disappear, completely rging into her fingernail area. Normally, they would be like ordinary fingernails, just with a slight tallic sheen. Laura was not dissatisfied with this. She just considered it like wearing slightly shimring silver nail polish.

During combat, the fingernails on all five fingers could extend outwards by three to five centiters, allowing Laura to turn her hands into terrifying, indestructible weapons.

This was not all. When necessary, each fingernail could continue to extend into a sharp blade twenty to thirty centiters long. However, in this state, just like Deathstrike, the tal blade would pierce through the flesh of her fingertips, aning that when she needed to use this ability, she would have to endure the pain as usual.

Furthermore, the tal claw on Laura's foot was not eliminated but transferred to her arm, which ant that in addition to the fixed weapons that could extend from her fingers, Laura also had an extra backup blade.

This tal blade could extend from several locations: the outer side of her forearm, the outer side of her elbow, and her palm, providing an elent of surprise when needed.

Of course, this blade also needed to pierce through flesh, so Laura would not use it normally. This also served to effectively hide this ability.

Imagine this: the opponent finally managed to block or evade the blades on Laura's fingertips with great effort, and just as they were breathing a sigh of relief, they suddenly saw a section of tal blade shoot out from Laura's open palm or elbow. What kind of expression would they have?

Moreover, having blades that could extend from the outer forearm, elbow, and palm provided trendous help in close combat. Even so moves used for defense or hindering enemy attacks could beco deadly killing blows in her hands.

As a seasoned warrior who had participated in countless battles and had almost reached the peak in close combat, Logan naturally knew what this adjustnt by Ethan ant.

"Isn't that too insidious?"

"It's alright..."

Ethan was having fun with the modifications and did not think too much about it. In his opinion, Laura would not have many opportunities to use this insidious hidden blade in future battles.

Given her current situation, most enemies could not even get close to her.

Laura's Druid spells were decent, not on the sa level as Logan's half-baked attempts. Nowadays, Laura could use so spells. Combined with always sticking close to Auriel, most of the ti she just needed to stand at a distance and support Auriel with so interference and attack spells.

Even if soone occasionally charged at her, they would probably be scratched to death by her fingernails. This hidden claw might not even get a chance to be used in her lifeti.

Laura, on the other hand, did not think too much. She just felt this adjustnt was very much to her liking. It was not just cool, but also powerful. Moreover, Ethan had specifically integrated effects like beauty enhancent, body shaping, and ntal strength strengthening into this potion. All the effects she wanted were included.

However, the effect was too strong, especially since it was adjusted specifically for her mutant abilities. Therefore, this specially formulated potion could not complete the enhancent through simple oral intake.

Laura needed to be imrsed in the dicinal liquid in a specially made device, just like Selene, spending a longer ti to complete this enhancent.

But thinking about how she would not be the person with the lowest good looks on the ship after the enhancent was complete, she felt it was no big deal. Wasn't it just sleeping in this cabin for a few extra days? What was the big deal?

It was not until Annette took over the subsequent work and the enhancent officially began that Laura realized she was wrong.

Because this enhancent involved significant adjustnts to her body, the process... was not very comfortable or pleasant.
