Chapter 81: CH 081: Fight the enemy! (MR 8)
As Dave observed the group before him, a realization dawned: these individuals, identified by the system as Mergers, were distinct from the hybrids he had previously encountered.
Unlike the hybrids, who often lost control during their transformations, these Mergers shifted into their beastly forms with deliberate intent, maintaining full awareness and control.
In White’s laboratory, Dave had come across a manual detailing the nature of hybrids. It explained that hybrids possessed a dual form, their human and beast form, which leads to internal conflicts that often resulted in uncontrollable transformations.
To manage this, White had developed a remote device, using the mother crystal, to control these involuntary changes. However, the Mergers exhibited no such instability.
This discrepancy raised questions in Dave’s mind. How did the Mergers achieve such seamless control over their transformations? Was there a different mechanism at play, or had they undergone a distinct process altogether?
At that moment, a translucent screen of the system had appeared before his eyes, displaying a detailed information about the enigmatic group confronting him.
[Mergers are individuals who have undergone a unique transformation, allowing them to merge their bodies with those of beasts]
[This merging is typically triggered subconsciously, often during moments of intense fear or panic, resulting in the user being able to merge with any beasts that chooses them]
[Upon merging with a beast, the individual gains the abilities and attributes of the beast, while the beast itself, along with others of its kind, ceases any hostile actions towards the merger]
