Vorepunk background story settings of combat drones part 1(English ver.) (Pixiv Fanbox)

Art by 水月岩雲 (pixiv : www.pixiv.net/users/13524241 ) The drone tech from WIN Industries is based on the pod monster which can be found in the wasteland. Host capture process of pod monster Step 1(page 1) When the pod monster detects some possible hosts nearby, it will use the slime inside its body and spit them on the target. The slime will melt the host’s protective gear. In the meantime, the slime will start to encase the host’s body to make sure the host can’t run away. Step 2 The slime will very quickly encase the host’s body. Normally the host doesn't have enough time to call for help or run away. During this process, with the help of external forces, the host still has a chance to escape. Step 3 If there is no external force involved, the host itself will not be able to escape. After a period of time, the mucus will gradually coagulate and penetrate into the host's own skin and fuse with the nervous system of the host's own skin. At the same time, the mucus will gradually coagulate into the host's second skin, but this layer of skin will completely wrap the host in it. At the same time, this layer of skin is very tough and will not be easily pierced by general sharp tools, and to a certain extent, it will enhance the nerve perception ability of the host, making it more sensitive to the surrounding environment and its own touch. Once this process is completed, the transformation will be irreversible. Even if other parts of the symbiont are successfully removed, the host is wrapped in a second skin, like a faceless female doll. Step 4(page 2) Then the pod monster will use their tongue to fully mummify the host to ensure they can’t escape. Step 5 If the host is strong and struggling, the pod monster will restrain the host again with a second layer of slime. Then the pod monster will use its tongue to drag the host inside and start swallowing the host. Step 6 Then the pod monster will use its tongue to gradually drag the host into the mouth for swallowing. At the same time, the tentacle will stretch out from the monster and begin to invade the host, trying to seize control of the host's body, and the tentacle will invade the host's vagina and anus. Some monsters also invade the host's mouth. Step 7(page 3) The tentacle will secrete a large amount of liquid containing drugs, so that the host is highly excited and orgasms continuously. At this time, the pod monster will continue to absorb the juice of the host. Meanwhile the tentacles invading the host's anus continue to penetrate into the host's stomach, and some will reach the host's mouth and continuously secrete a nutrient solution containing medicine to maintain the host's various physical functions. It is found that this nutrient solution can significantly delay the aging of the host. Therefore, it is inferred that the some of the hosts in the wasteland may have survived for nearly 100 years. Step 8 When the host completely gives up body control, some pod monsters will start to mutate. The pod monster's body will change according to the host's body shape. The original binding layer of the host will separate so that the host's limbs can move freely. And the pod monster's body will also evolve into a state similar to a symbiotic suit. At this time, the pod monster has completely seized control of the host body and tries to move around the habitat. Step 9(page 4) After adapting to the new body, the symbiotic relationship between the pod monster and the host will become closer, and the mouthparts of some pod monsters will gradually become smaller until they are completely closed, sealing the host completely. At this time, the physical function of the host will be significantly enhanced, and the perception, speed and strength will be much higher than ordinary people. However, because the pod monster itself is still a creature, this symbiotic suit is easily destroyed by traditional kinetic energy weapons and sharp edge weapons, but the pod monster symbiotic suit has a high tolerance to energy weapons.
