A researcher said in disbelief as he took off the headset on his head, slowly stood up, and looked at the glass enclosure.
Anyone who wasn't blind could tell that the flames inside the glass enclosure were gradually extinguishing.
...
When Sun Hang could no longer feel the fury and heat in the blood, he finally let go of his mouth.
He stood up, wiped the corner of his mouth, and let out a satisfied belch.
He felt a bit sticky in his throat, and his stomach was bloated, as if he had just gulped down a full barrel of drinking water.
"Uh, I've absorbed so much blood; hope Mr. Wang won't die from blood loss."
This thought suddenly popped up, and Sun Hang was momentarily stunned before quickly lowering his head to check on Wang Xiyi's condition.
The wound on her neck had already healed, leaving only two marks like cinnabar moles, scars left by Sun Hang's two sharpest canine teeth — these two teeth had just grown to a length of ten centimeters, making Sun Hang look like a human saber-toothed tiger.
The dragon scales covering Wang Xiyi's body had shed significantly, and her mutated claw-shaped hands turned back into original slender fingers, exposing large areas of skin to the air.
Her face was quite rosy, devoid of the pallor typical of blood loss, which brought a sigh of relief to Sun Hang.
The Black Dragon meme bestowed her with a robust life force, and even if all the blood in her body was drained in an instant, her body functions could still create enough new blood to sustain organ operation before death could arrive.
However, compared to her previous human form with only occasional hidden scales, Wang Xiyi's current appearance had undergone a significant change.
She still had hard black scales covering parts like her spine, waist, neck, the underside of her cheeks, the outsides of her thighs, appearing like the "bikini armor" commonly seen on female characters in video games... The most prominent dragon transformation features, however, were the pair of hard, curved dragon horns on either side of her forehead and a tail that protruded from the end of her tailbone...
These two mutated parts remained even after the meme within Wang Xiyi stabilized.
However, this was not a big problem, after all, Sun Hang had seen Hunters who looked even more grotesque, and Wang Xiyi's current form wasn't that conspicuous within the Hunter circle.
Moreover, her current appearance seemed to align well with the depiction of a fantasy creature active in the two-dimensional world.
"Dragon Girl."
Now the only thing left to worry about is...
Whether she could wake up.
Sun Hang slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, stretched out his hand, and slapped Wang Xiyi's face twice.
"Mmm..."
Wang Xiyi made a muffled moan in her throat, and then she slowly opened her eyes.
Her pupils had completely transformed into a brilliant golden, a shape between those of most feline and reptilian beings, a narrow vertical line... but within a few seconds, the shape of her pupils returned to normal, and the dazzling golden color gradually faded away.
"Sun Hang? Am I... still alive?" Wang Xiyi asked weakly... It seemed all her energy had been spent on repairing her physical body, and at this moment she was extremely weak, as if every word squeezed out from her lips required all her strength.
"Yeah, still alive." Sun Hang reached out a hand to her, pulling her out of the melted and deformed Eternal Freeze Coffin, "Welcome back to the human world."
"You didn't eat me?" Wang Xiyi asked with some confusion... It must be said, the Black Dragon's recovery ability was truly terrifying, as Wang Xiyi, who was extremely weak a moment ago, regained enough strength to stand and even speak fluently in no time.
"I did eat, but didn't clean you out completely." Sun Hang replied, "I left some scraps for you."
Wang Xiyi somewhat dazedly felt the quiet meme inside her, instinctively reaching out her hand to her neck.
She found the two scars like cinnabar moles — for some unknown reason, despite the Black Dragon's powerful enough recovery ability to reshape flesh, these scars weren't erased.
The next second, she reached up to her head and touched the pair of hard dragon horns.
"...What is this?"
"Dragon horns... probably?" Sun Hang scratched his head, "Dragons, whether Western or Eastern, seem to have horns... By the way, haven't you seen what Black Dragons look like?"
Wang Xiyi shook her head, then noticed the tail that swayed along with her movement.
This tail was very long, and if you start counting from the point where it emerged from the tailbone, it stretched almost two meters, already taller than Wang Xiyi herself.
Not to mention Sun Hang, who was half a head shorter than Wang Xiyi.
"The bestial form... has become normalized..." Wang Xiyi murmured softly as she reached behind her, but there were no familiar wings.
"I checked, only got horns on the head and a tail on the butt, for some reason the wings didn't grow." Sun Hang said, "But that's good, from now on you just have to cut a hole in your pants, clothes can still be worn normally."
"Sigh..." Wang Xiyi sighed lightly; her sigh was so subtle but still caught by Sun Hang.
"Why the sigh?"
"It seems... I've become a bit further from being human again." Wang Xiyi said softly.
