Transmigrated into Another Apocalyptic World (BL) - Chapter 416 416

416: Chapter 415: Thorn 4 416: Chapter 415: Thorn 4 [Of course, I remember you.

You’re always talking, even when I can’t see you.

I could still hear you talking!] “Thorn said it remembers you.” “Wow!

It remembers me!” “It can remember everything it has seen over the past few months, so it can recognize most of you,” Luciel added.

“Then, can we also talk to it for a bit?” Nichole asked with excitement.

Jane, who was also nearby, looked at him eagerly.

They were both clearly fascinated by Thorn, who had just awakened its consciousness.

Their interest was even stronger than the others’, likely because they also had plant superpowers.

“You can talk to Thorn more while we’re traveling.

I’m sure Thorn is also interested in talking to you,” Luciel said.

He had only known Thorn for one night, but it was already clear that Thorn wasn’t the quiet type.

It seemed to enjoy excitement and fighting, so it would be better for it to chat with others during their travels, so that it wouldn’t disturb him while he was watching movies or playing games.

Sure enough, Thorn said, [Yes, yes!

I’ll talk to them later!] “I still need to see what it can do, so you can talk to Thorn later,” Luciel added, then turned to Thorn.

“Thorn, show me how big and how hard your spines can get.

You should also show me how many you can release at once.” [Okay!

I’ll show you how majestic I am!] Thorn said confidently.

After Thorn finished speaking, Luciel saw all of Thorn’s spines fall off, and then new ones started to emerge.

The original spines were thin, about six to seven inches long.

The new ones that grew in were similar in size but visibly tougher and sharper.

“Okay, now remove a few of your spines, I’ll check them,” Luciel said, putting on the gloves he had brought earlier.

Thorn obediently dropped a few of its new spines.

Luciel picked up one of the old spines and tested its hardness by trying to cut it with his steel dagger.

There was some resistance, but he still managed to cut through it.

Then, he picked up one of the newly grown spines.

It was clearly sharper and denser than the old ones.

When he tried cutting it again with his dagger, the spine didn’t break, though it was slightly damaged.

“So, it’s not as hard as steel,” Luciel concluded, glancing at Thorn.

[It’s not as hard as steel, but I can make them harder by using plant energy when attacking enemies!] Thorn said in defense.

“How do you harden them?

Do you coat them with your plant energy before launching them at your enemies?” Luciel asked, inspecting the spine in his hand.

The cactus he had in his previous life used the same method.

It was also coating its spines with plant energy before launching them, so Thorn could probably do it too.

[Yes.

How do you know?”] “I just knew.” Luciel also tried coating the spine he was holding with his own plant energy, and he successfully coated the spine with his plant energy.

Then he tried using his dagger to break the spine again, but this time the dagger didn’t damage the spine at all.

The steel dagger that he had was even refined by Treyton, so it was actually harder than an ordinary steel dagger, but it couldn’t damage the spine at all.

“This is good,” Luciel said with a smile.

As the zombies were getting stronger, their bodies were also getting harder.

So guns and other weapons wouldn’t be effective by then.

According to the novel, the only things that would work would be the powers of ability users.

That’s also why in the novel the status of people with abilities got higher and higher, as they’re the ones that could damage the zombies and mutant animals that were a threat to humanity.

Of course, afterward, they also developed some weapons that people without abilities could use.

And those weapons were made with the abilities of those with superpowers.

The most common ones were the weapons made by metal users.

They’re more effective in dealing with zombies.

Most of the weapons of the team were actually the ones that Treyton had made, but the difference with other weapons wasn’t obvious yet because ordinary weapons that were processed before were still able to deal damage to the zombies that they were currently encountering.

Metal weapons made by metal ability users were the most common ones, but they’re not the only ones available.

For example, an ice dagger or sword could also be made by Zam, and it would take a long time before it melted when he got stronger.

It’s also the same with other abilities like earth and others like his plant ability.

He could also make a weapon out of the vines that he had by hardening them to the extreme and sharpening them afterward to make them more effective.

But with the spines of Thorn, he didn’t need to make more weapons as Thorn had a lot of spines that he could use as his weapons.

Luciel held two more spines and coated them with his plant energy.

Afterwards, he controlled the three spines using the plant energy coats as a medium and launched them at the tree ten meters away from them.

The two spines embedded themselves in the tree trunk, and one managed to cut a thick branch of the tree.

Seeing the result, Luciel smiled again.

He just needed to control more, and it would be more lethal, especially when dealing with a lot of enemies.

[Wow, you already know how to use my thorns.

I haven’t even tried launching them like you did!

I’ll try them too!] “How did you do that?” Nathan also said immediately.

“I just coated them with plant energy and launched them afar.” “So, you got another weapon,” Treyton said.

“Yeah.” “Can we try them too?” Nichole said with excitement while looking at the spines of Thorn and at the tree that he had targeted.
