Having finished his explanation in one breath, Jelas exhaled with self-satisfied pride.
For well-known reasons, the Alfheim Defense Force had persistently researched "Immortal Soldiers," from early assembled corpses to later Ghouls – all were products of this demand. Today's Storm Ghouls could be said to be the culmination of various research outcomes, a near-completed product just one step shy of practical mass production.
On the bodies of human bombs from the Duchy and early version Ghouls, Elf researchers had thoroughly tested the feasibility of using parasitic worms implanted with thought recycling to replace the brain, as well as the possibility of pushing the human potential to its extremes. On this basis, they performed extreme light-weighting to enhance mobility and strength. However, even that was not enough to meet the demands, so they developed the more easily mass-produced and better-performing Storm Ghouls.
