Whirr.
Accompanied by the flow of Holy Oil and rising steam, the unclad Duncan slowly emerged.
The originally slender form of Human Form No. 3 now displayed prominent chest and abdominal muscles as he stepped out, with long arms and firm thighs. A slight exertion would reveal muscles as solid as rock, and even his height seemed to have increased by about a centimeter.
"Looks like the fusion went well."
Master Qiao gazed at Duncan with satisfaction, as if admiring a work of art, and said slowly, "Your skeleton has been strengthened by the Machine Spirit. If you have specific requirements regarding height,"
"You can consult the Technology Priest in the Logistics Department; they will help you adjust skeletal development to reach your desired height."
"But I don't advise adjusting your height too high."
"It would affect overall agility."
Duncan was somewhat surprised; could height actually be adjusted?
