Chapter 583 - 332: Corpse Dragon Devil Tuber! Research Institute of the Ancient Civilization! (Two-in-One Super - ) _1
At the window of the tree house, Ivita saw a woman of the Longhair Tribe implanting a special Swamp Red Flower into the body of an infant. Thousands of delicate strands from the flower, as thin as nerves, intertwined into the infant’s own nerves, fusing deeply with the baby.
The infant, lying on the ’operating table’ about the size of a dinner table, was crying even harder now.
Crying hysterically, enduring intense pain, the woman of the Longhair Tribe seemingly turned a deaf ear and started sewing up the baby’s chest with something that seemed like spider silk threaded through a needle.
Miraculously, the infant’s body began to change.
Beyond the fuzz of newborn, hairless infant began growing numerous hair-like spikes that were steadily increasing in length.
Witnessing this, Ivita understood, that the hair on Longhair Tribe was not real hair.
It was rather a substance similar to nerves.
The hair was actually a product of a combination of human nerves and the delicate threads of the Swamp Red Flower.
If this were the case, then the Longhair Tribe was indeed an artificially modified synthetic species, unlike previous world’s cyborg research which focused on the fusion of humans and machines. What she was witnessing were humans grafting alien flora onto their bodies in the swamp lands.
