"Myaow myaow myaow…"
Veronica squinted her eyes in pleasure as she ate chunks of delectable meat fortified with chips of Unending alloy.
As a cyborg cat, her diet became a little complex. She was somehow able to digest both organic and inorganic food.
She did not strictly need to eat daily meals in order to survive, but it was good for her health and apparently her cultivation.
Before this day, she did not really understand how living beings such as Lucky grew stronger by eating a lot of specific materials. Where was it all going? He never really got any bigger despite literally eating a starship's worth of metal all of the years that he had been accompanying Ves!
Now, Veronica understood that Lucky extracted the energies from the metals he ingested. Exotics had all been fortified with the power of heaven and earth. It took special processes to extract the spiritual energy that had been tightly intertwined into the structure of these special materials.
