Indeed, as if noticing Dorothy's curious gaze, Mrs. Black Sheep took the initiative to lift her long hair and then brought her beautiful neck close to the hobody witch's face. With a thought, the smooth skin suddenly opened like a machine door, revealing a small interface with a faint glimpse of a complex internal chanical structure.
Ah, this...
Although Dorothy cried out for chanical ascension every day, when she really saw this scene, she was still sowhat stunned.
Well, guys, have you magical girls really transford yourselves into robots? There's no need to go this far, is there?
The hobody witch thought so to herself.
Even the craziest Spider Teacher she had seen in reality had only created a bunch of chanical duplicates for herself; she hadn't been willing to turn her own body into a puppet. Now, it seed that in the Witch's Night, human chanization had beco common.
However, astonishing as it was, it did not stop her from continuing to learn. After all...
Please, the chance to beco a full cybernetic body robot is really cool, okay?
Since it's all a dream, why hesitate? Modify everything, she could be daringly brave.
With a tiny bit of expectation, Dorothy also directly put on the magic conduction helt and inserted the chip into the slot on the helt.
Accompanied by a crisp click, the chip and the helt shed together, and the countless small gears that made up the chip also connected to the reading gears on the edge of the helt mouth. Then the large gear inside the helt started to turn the small gears in the chip, and the information stored in the gear chip was thus read, and then transmitted into Dorothy's brain through the ntal magic array in the helt.
"Ah, this, a pure chanical structure, it's not the integrated circuit board pattern from my past life. It's also a technological path, but a completely different branch. So, has the purely chanical computer like the difference engine also been created here? Wow, I just casually left a concept in the planning book, and I didn't expect Denisha to really make a finished product."
The hobody witch thought to herself and then quietly began to receive the knowledge transfer.
About five minutes or so later, she who was lying down sat up again, then pinched the corner of her eye, trying to relieve the sensation of a swollen brain.
Tsk, she was almost cramd full of information, almost overflowing.
One can only say that the human brain is really trash, huh? With just this amount of data, it's nearly overheating—both efficiency and capacity are lantably low and in desperate need of an upgrade.
But she had at least co to understand everything.
"Well, guys, I thought it was going to be cyberpunk-style limb modification, but it actually leans more towards alloy mutants like Wolverine?"
Dorothy thus reflected.
The so-called magic equipnt transformation didn't involve removing the original human body and replacing it with a chanical limb. Instead, it ant ingesting specially blended liquid tal magic potions, then guiding these liquids into the body parts one wished to strengthen, and finally combining the liquid tal with the human tissue to achieve the goal of transforming and evolving certain body parts.
Indeed, it's very similar to Wolverine's process of strengthening his skeleton with adamantium, but the magic equipnt process is much more precise and complex than the brutish enhancent like Wolverine's.
This wasn't simply about combining flesh with liquid tal; that could only be considered strengthening, not evolution.
Magic girls precisely adjusted their bodies during the process of evolution, like, for example, imitating the arm muscle structure of a gorilla to eventually develop a pair gorilla arms.
Of course, that's just an example. In fact, rather than such simple bionic mimicry, it was more appropriate for the body to adapt better to the workings of certain specific spells. And if one must involve biomimicry, why learn from gorillas? Supernatural races like elves, dwarves, rmaids, vampires are actually better models for mimicry.
Sohow, this already had the flavor of witches evolving talents and specialties in later generations.
The evolution of witches relied solely on their racial trait of infinite evolution, coupled with the omnipotent primordial magic power. But now, without the Witch's Power, this path of evolution that relied on external forces and chanical ascension beca a necessary approach.
Moreover, because the magical power—an amazing force—was incorporated into the evolution process, these magical girls didn't feel rigid like those with cybernetic modifications. In fact, their magical equipnt would only appear when magic power was in operation. When the magic was inactive, the equipnt would hide away, and they would remain normal humans with all the functions of human flesh—eating, procreating, nothing was affected.
Furthermore, this avenue of chanical ascension also had certain life-extending effects. A re mortal like Koreya was over five hundred years old but still looked like she was in her twenties, all thanks to the long lifespan brought about by a higher degree of magic equipnt enhancent.
In summary, what's known as the Magic Girl now seems to be a knockoff version, no, a high imitation of a witch.
The fact that these girls have actually managed to hold their ground against the Church's armies of Low-ranking Angels over the years is a testant to their combat power, which should not be underestimated.
The only issue might be that becoming a Magic Girl is rather dependent on talent, and unlike witches, their abilities aren't as inheritable. The children of Magic Girls are just regular mortals and do not possess the innate superhuman qualities that witch offspring have at birth.
For this reason, the occupation of Magic Girl is rely a powerful one for mortals and has not yet been considered a race.
As for what the most important talent is to beco a Magic Girl?
It's the sa ironclad belief that was essential when Dorothy created the five original Magical Girls like Koreya, all those years ago.
The risks involved in this forced evolution through external ans are ultimately too great. Each evolution is like walking through Ghost Gate, and a failure almost certainly results in death or severe disability.
Not to ntion, the procedure for Magic Girls involves consuming a unique liquid tal, which, if the evolution fails, instantly turns the tal Magic Potion intended for evolution into a deadly poison, offering virtually no chance of survival. However, old-tirs might consider applying directly at the Monunt of Heroes next door to beco a Heroic Spirit upon retirent.
"Alright then, let's see which template I should use to evolve."
Now that the hobody witch had grasped everything, she began to contemplate.
In the present-day Magic Republic, the Angel Template remains the most outstanding option for evolution. Denisha chose the Angel Template and has achieved full Magic Equipnt, completing her chanical Ascension to beco a Magic Equipnt Angel.
Dorothy had also forcibly evolved so Angel characteristics in the latter part of the first act utilizing the Blood of the Hero, such as the pair of Angel's Wings at her waist and the Angel's Ring above her head.
Logically, if she were to opt for Magic Equipnt, she might as well continue with the Angel Template. After all, compared to blindly evolving with other templates, Denisha's experience with the Angel Template could serve as a reference. In fact, most of the Magic Girls in the current Magical Equipnt Squadron have chosen the Angel Template.
But...
"If I still want to slack off, I'd simply stick with the Angel Template straight through, following the God of Faith's power line. I could be a great support, but leaving Denisha aside, I wouldn't be able to win against Sophia if I choose the route of the Magic Equipnt Angel, since my path of faith was learned from her."
"Sigh, at the end of the day, the Angel Template is just for a bit of fun. When it cos to arming oneself seriously, I need to consider my role as the Dragon Witch. Purely from a combat power perspective, the Magic Equipnt Dragon would suit best."
"So the question now is, where do I find a dragon to study and develop the Great Dragon template?"
The hobody witch fell into deep thought, and then she casually glanced at the black and white portrait of Father Adam on the wall.
Oh, there we have it. Thanks to my old man's legacy, I just rembered we already have a dirt-eating dragon at ho.
"Emora, are you there? Co out for a second, I've got sothing tasty for you."
Dorothy stomped her foot and called towards the church's underground.
Following her call, the earth began to shake, and a mountainous behemoth rose from below. It then extended its regal and fierce dragon head, blinking its house-sized eyes as it peered down at the hobody witch.
"Ah, what a hefty dragon."
The enormous dragon, which was as vast as a mountain, intended to roar as a dramatic entrance, but the hobody witch's comnt left it utterly choked up.
The Great Dragon widened its eyes in disbelief as if it couldn't believe Dorothy would say such a thing. It stood dazed for a long while before letting out an irritated growl.
"You're the hefty one. I'm still a child. How can I grow if I don't eat my fill?"
...The dirt-eating dragon shuddered with indignation...
