355 Chapter 355 Making Stew
The 100,000 golems fought the Xenorph for more than 2 months, and in that time frame, only 25,000 were left.
The Xenorph breathed heavily, struggling to stand on its feet. “Your little ants cannot kill me. Soon, you will run out of toys to throw.”
“Ultra Golems, it’s your turn.”
The four Ultra Golems stepped forward.
The Xenorph snorted. “These four cannot do anything to me. Stop wasting your energy, fools.”
Suddenly, thousands of worker golems entered the chamber with a stack of crates. They opened the crates, and thousands of mana crystals poured out.
The four Ultra Golems revealed their Vanquisher and aimed as it shone. The mana crystals around them got drained, and the light on the Vanquisher became brighter.
After a few seconds, a powerful, earth-shaking explosion occurred as four bright, thick beams burst forth toward the Xenorph’s wound.
Stella watched the four beams blasting toward the wound, and she could not help but feel amazed.
The Xenorph roared in pain. “Your kind will pay for this, human!”
The large creature’s head fell to the ground with a loud thud. Even though its size was smaller than Xer Xai, its body was one thousand times heavier. The fact that the floor wasn’t dented, and the chain managed to keep it in place meant that the ones who made this lab were not an ordinary group either.
For one reason or another, when the creature died, the golem could now penetrate its scales though it still took hours to do it.
“So the durability of its body relied on its life force. When it died, it became easier to cut,” Aldred said.
“Monsters naturally have a powerful body, but there are those who have the durability of a Diamond Rank while at Gold Rank. They are a beast among beasts that defy ranks,” Stella explained.
“I see. Well, its body wasn’t that weak either. It should be stronger than the surface armor of our ship.”
“It also has less weight than our ship-grade materials,” Dobbs commented.
The four Ultra Golems approached the beast, held it, and then slowly absorbed the scales before integrating it into their body.
When the scales completely covered their body, they stopped.
Dobbs rubbed his chin as he stared at this event. “Hmmm, even though the Ultra Golems are now more durable, their speed is reduced because of the weight of the scales.”
This was why they could not use ship-grade materials. Not only was it hard to use them for a small object, but they were also too heavy for Gold Rank golems.
Suddenly, the Ultra Golems exuded a powerful life force, and then they dashed around in the chamber to show off their speed.
“Ohh, what a surprise. The scales of that entity stored some of its life force and increased the speed of our golems!” Dobbs watched in excitement
The golems then cut the Xenorph piece by piece. It took them more than 3 weeks to finally cut the body to pieces, before bringing it outside.
Once outside, Stella teleported them to the storage room within the mothership.
Aldred, Stella, and Dobbs visited the storage room to see the creature’s body.
Up close, they could feel the powerful life force that the Xenorph had. If they met the creature directly when it was alive, they would surely die.
Aldred touched the scales and then absorbed them into his skin. His skin did not change, but it was much more durable, and the quality of his life force increased exponentially.
Suddenly, a sharp pain stabbed within his body. “Ahh! It hurts!”
“Keep absorbing, Aldred!” Stella said. “Don’t stop or you won’t be able to absorb it anymore.”
After absorbing the scales, the flesh, blood, muscles, and organs followed. Throughout the process, Aldred was in great pain, and his scream echoed for hours.
Closing his eyes, he began to refine his body.

Covering your body with the blood of your enemy will increase all of your stats.
Aldred gritted his teeth for a few good hours until all the pain dissipated.
He punched the floor and it actually made a small dent.
Everyone there was shocked, including Aldred.
“This floor is made out of high-grade ship materials…” Dobbs’s eyes were filled with amazement. “Even a Platinum Rank would barely be able to dent it.”
Aldred could not believe himself either.
Suddenly, his Phantom Doomblade appeared out of nowhere, wanting to consume the soul of the Xenorph.
It looked around left and right but found nothing.
“This creature. It has no soul,” Stella said.
“No soul?” Aldred frowned. “How is that possible?”
“This creature is probably a small part of a powerful monster.”
“Are you saying that this powerful monster cut off some of its flesh or something, and then a powerful Adamantite Rank Xenorph form out of it”?”
“It’s not a new concept. Look at your clone ability. You can make three of yourselves with the exact strength and the exact treasure. Your power is beyond anyone’s comprehension. That should not be possible at all.”
“Right…”
“In normal cases, a Gold Rank can only make a clone with Silver or Bronze strength. A Diamond can make Platinum Rank clones and lower.”
“So, you are saying that this creature is stronger than Adamantite Rank?”
Stella was silent for a few seconds before she nodded.
Aldred gulped in fear. Hopefully, his mother would save him if that creature came for his life.
…
“Mom, what should I do with this lizard?” Dina said as she grabbed a 3,000 kilometers long Xenorph by the neck.
They were currently in space having a tea party until they detected a lizard coming nearby.
“If you want to, you can put a chain around its neck and give it to Aldred as a pet.” Eve sipped on her tea calmly.
“A pet?” Donna looked at the lizard. “No way. This is too ugly. Aldred will hate me if I gave it to him. Maybe we can cook it instead.”
The three kilometers beast widened its eyes at the thought of being cooked. It teleported to this world to find the one who killed its clone, but suddenly this girl came out of nowhere and grabbed it by the neck.
And there was nothing it could do to get free.
“Maybe I should make a stew,” Dina said to herself. “I have decided!”
The 3-kilometer-long Xenorph flinched as the girl dragged it to the floating castle.
Shit! Was this how it would end? A powerful creature feared by many, a conqueror of worlds? Would his life end in a boiling pot?
“I will make a good stew out of you, okay?” Dina tilted her head in a cute manner with a smile as she said that.
