Capítulo 48: Rip and Tear III
(Bruce POV)
I am currently scouting the area where I fought for many days. I see what I call ravagers eating the remains of the dead creatures. They look like mindless monsters that have a Mangog-like head. I can see their physical prowess which I am interested in. I will need them for my plans. Over the course of two weeks, I have set up shop in my cave. I have my plans laid out and only need to start. That's why I'm here. These things can be useful for me and my plans.

I have created something, I call the 'Impulse Pen'. It is a small device that is made up of nerve cells I have collected. I managed to add certain elements to it that are needed for an action potential. By clicking the pen, these elements: Na, K, Ca, etc. get released and an electrical impulse is sent out. It took a while but I managed to 'program' a few different commands, so to speak. And how it works we will see right now.
I make my way towards one of hte ravagers without getting noticed. When I am close enough, I jump on his back and stab the 'Impulse Pen' into its head.
"RAAAAHHHH", the monster screams and begins to flail around. I have something for that though. I take an extension of my belt, which I created, and stab both ends into the shoulder of the ravager. That way I won't fall off. The ravager screams and tries to shake me off but to no avail. I am securely on his shoulders and have the impulse pen in his head already.
I click the pen and activate the first impulse. The electrical signal is sent and the ravager screams again. But I see the change happening. I look up and see the other ravagers noticing me. This causes them to start running towards us. I of course can't let this happen when I am still secured here. So I send the next impulse. This one causes the ravager to run. The muscles in his legs start to move and I use the pen like a joystick to direct him where to run.
I prepared a trap for this situation. A very simple bear trap with spikes on the bottom. But these spikes are laced with strong anaesthetics to make them fall asleep. I don't want to kill them right now. I will use them for various purposes. But the most important one right now is ... electricity.
That's right I will rip off the Matrix and milk these f*ckers for their electricity. That's the easiest way I have found right now. I'll see whether I can create something better later. I theorise that there should be a hell version of electricity, just like Rick found the toxic version. It's not even that hard, but I need tools and to have living specimens that I can use as lab rats is always welcome.
.
I lead the horde of ravagers towards my trap and as we approach it, I send the last impulse to the one I am currently riding on. The ravager jumps high into the air and over the trap, I had hidden here. Just like the mindless creatures that they are, the others continue to run and fall into my trap.
"RAAAHHH"
"RAHhh"
"UUUUHHrrr"
All sorts of painful sounds are heard as they are impaled and put to sleep. I push the impulse pen deep into the ravager's head and kill him. I have no further use for him. I get off of him and walk towards the trap. I count about 20 ravagers. This is good. I will have plenty of materials to create my personal Mangog. The protector that I will control and that I will use to hunt other Evil Spirits for me.
I had different plans at first on how to go from here. I wanted to create the perfect body for me. But while my soul was damaged and still adapting to the realm and the energies, I can't do that right now. I am still flooding my body and soul with my Chi, which has grown tremendously since I got here. Thanks to the Hercules Method, my body, mind and soul are pretty much focused on one spot, meaning that if I want to go full 'Kenjaku' from JJK, I could do that. But it wasn't possible due to the damage to my soul.
Nevertheless, I would simply go hunting for the best parts this realm had to offer and turn myself into a Chimera. It is time I increased my strength while I am here.

- 8 weeks later -
I look at the 10 Matrix eggs with the 10 ravagers inside them and nod my head. That was stressful but fruitful. After all of the ravagers went to sleep I locked each of them into a cage. These cages weren't made of metal just yet, since I was still looking for workers and someone that could heat up my forge, that I would create very soon.
I worked on some things that I wanted to and needed for hunting. One of these things was blow darts. I couldn't make guns just yet, but they would come soon. So after I created another Impulse Pen, I used it on one ravager and made him dig all around the cave and create more rooms which I would need. He dug deep into the ground, creating a very basic mineshaft. There I worked him to death, by digging up metals and other building materials. And when I say I worked him to death, I mean it. He died.
So I repeated the same thing with another ravager. The only problem was that these Impulse pens were hard to make and took a lot of effort. So when I calculated the amount of metal and materials to be enough for what I had planned, I stopped. Three ravagers died digging themselves to exhaustion.
After 2 weeks of doing that, I was finally ready to create my forge. I used another ravager to dig up the things I needed and created a very basic forge. Sometime later, I will upgrade this and improve it, but for now, that is all I have and need. My next plan?
Obedient discs.
I would create obedience discs from the Battle World in Marvel comics. But I needed electricity for that. And for that, I needed to work on metal, and for that, I needed a forge and for that, I needed someone that could produce enough heat to melt the metals.
So I went out and hunted myself an Evil Spirit that could breathe fire. I managed to catch one with the blow darts and carried the f*cker back to the cave. There I had to teach him to fear me. I tortured the little shit for a few days and after that, he became more obedient. He was cursing me all day long but at least he did what I told him to.
Oh, yeah I didn't say it but he wasn't a mindless beast. It was someone who wanted to know what was going on in these parts. The fight I had with all of them didn't go unnoticed. So I made a good haul. I will get all of the information out of him that he knows.
.
Now I had a working fire-breathing machine and could start moulting the metals how I wished. I got to work and began creating the Matrix eggs as well as the conductors that I needed to collect the electricity. I also began with the casing for my battery. It would be quite a big battery, but not as big as I would have liked.
After another two weeks of working, I finished the Matrix eggs and put 10 ravagers inside the eggs after connecting them to various tubes that served as a way for me to nourish them and collect electricity. I cut off the muscles to stop them from moving. I only needed the electricity that their brain produced and nothing more. I connected everything and then fired everything up.
...
What a glorious moment that was. It took two full weeks, but finally, I had it. I managed to create a big battery and could now use this electricity to create the obedience discs. Which I did right after. I was working nonstop for all this time and while doing that, I had to satiate my soul and body with my Chi to adapt to the malice and the energy here as well as heal it slowly.
It was an arduous task but I did it. I created the obedience discs that I could control with a small device I created. I slapped one on my personal heater and the rest of the ravagers that were still alive. This was important because I wanted to create a creature that would protect me. I had to break all of them mentally and physically. So what I did, 3was start experimenting on one of the ravagers that I had chosen to the the one I would make the protector.
I started to check his bones, organs, muscles and brain. I never used any sedatives during this process. He was in a lot of pain and every time he wanted to attack me, I shocked him through the obedience disc.
After that, I began to do surgery on him and take out the things that he didn't need, like different organs and in the future the pain receptors and replace them with better things. I was in the process of creating my first Chimera. Since it looked like Mangog, at least the face did, I went the full Mangog route. I took bones, muscles and other things I needed from the other ravagers and implanted them into the one ravager.
I increased its muscle density as well as volume, added new muscles, hardened its bones, increased the number of nerves and made the durability of its stin much higher.
Before finishing this though, I created a mind control chip. I had done this a lot before, so doing this now wasn't that hard. I had to adjust the settings, the frequency and the power output, but other than that it was all the same. The brain of my personal Mangog was now fully wired and would be under my total control.

Finally, I was somewhat ready to go out and get myself some good parts for my own body. I knew that even if I had a protector now, nothing was certain, not in this realm. I needed some upgrades and for that, I wanted the best parts.
That is why I am currently creating some weapons for myself. I made them work with electricity. These weapons consist mainly of various guns. I created tranquiliser bullets and even something I call a 'Hellfire grenade'. Oh yes, this bad boy is something I am particularly proud of. I found a metal that was resistant to that particular fire and managed to mould it into small orbs.
I coated them with the metal and put fire in the middle. The button would crack open the metal coating and then cause a reaction with the air and explode. It was fun to create weapons of destruction without worry that you might kill innocents. Because there weren't any of those here.
I know that it is unbelievably dangerous in this realm Even if my plan which I created doesn't fully work, I will probably die here. But I refuse to die. I will hunt down these Evil Spirits from top to bottom and make myself stronger in the process and then see where it goes. I'm not sure who the ruler of this realm is right now, but if I had to guess, it's probably either Neyron or Baytor. Those are the two I know of. Either of them would crush me so I need plans and while I have those, I need the right tools for the job.
Time for a Doom armour.
