Determined to do the deed, I exhaled and picked up my tools. First of all, I had to check something I hadn't checked yet. It's nutrition, usefulness of bones, eyes, and of course a large amount of marrow. Also worth checking, time of loss of meta-human utility for me. I used to act the same way with them as with normal humans, so I need to clarify that point. In the past, when I've gotten Black and Tony's bone marrow, I've only taken it out of the area of greater bone marrow content, and in the most easily accessible places. But now, I'm going to try to take as much of it as I can from different parts of the body, and see if the amount of brain affects me.
Having finalized the plan, I set about gathering material.....
I checked the meat first, the girl didn't have much of it, she was too skinny, but I had enough. The flavor was still unpleasant, and the nutritional content was no different from a normal human. What was strange was the time it took for the meat to lose nutrition.
Checking with the results I'd deduced from constant testing on humans, I noticed big differences in timing. It turned out that the nutritional effectiveness of this girl's flesh began to lose effectiveness much later than that of normal humans. The flesh would begin to lose its properties fifteen minutes after separating from the main body, and would completely lose effectiveness after forty to forty-five minutes. This result surpassed the performance of ordinary people by about three times, which could not be pleased. It would be worth solidifying the results on a second meta-human and be completely confident. Also, it's worth checking how soon nutrition loses marrow. If it has the same time, that would be a big relief. You can get a lot done in fifteen minutes, I was already excited about that.
After injecting the girl with a few drugs I continued....

When I sawed off the leg, I quickly stopped the bleeding and covered it with the skin flaps I had carefully cut beforehand. I had some experience with this, so I was more careful, and then I began to work on the severed limb. Having completely stripped the bone of meat and other unnecessary nonsense, I cracked the bone and took out the marrow. There was very little of it in these bones, but it should be enough to test them.
After collecting all the marrow in one container and some bone meal in another, I started counting down the time from the start of sawing off the leg. Every five minutes I would need to check....
I made the first test right away, so that I had something to compare it with. The bones, as expected, were ineffective, just like in ordinary people. Bone marrow, on the other hand, just one drop, and I felt invigorated and lighter. I could already feel the change, and this was just a drop.....
As time passed, I cut out the girl's eye and swallowed. Just like with the bones, there was no effect, it was disappointing, but it was expected. It seems only bone marrow can improve my body now. By eating the meta-humans' bone marrow, not only do I adopt some of their power, but my body is enhanced. My brain abilities, bone strength, regeneration, all of these things are improved by bone marrow. So I've already jumped over the human limits, and I've only absorbed the brains of two metas, I can't imagine what will happen next....
After forty-five minutes, the experiment was complete. The bone marrow as well as the meat had the same shelf life. After fifteen minutes the efficiency begins to decrease, and until then it does not change. Then there is a rapid decline, and in the forty-third to forty-fifth minute, the usefulness of the brain for me completely disappears.
The brain had improved a little, but there was no obvious results, which was not surprising because the amount was too small. Also, of course, I didn't gain any powers and that's probably why I didn't lose consciousness. I think it's the larger amount that's important... Well, under the current circumstances, I can get a lot more marrow than I did before, and the result will probably be better. Usually after using bone marrow from a human meta I had big gains in all stats, probably after losing consciousness the body rebuilds and changes somehow. It's kind of like an emergency reboot where I'm completely renewed, if you can call it that....
Hmm, not bad, now I've finally refreshed my knowledge of meta-humans and their usefulness to me. I'll test it on a male and then I'll be completely sure.
After these thoughts, I injected the girl with another dose of anesthetic and sleeping pills, then got ready for the final procedure.
After amputating the remaining arm and leg, I quickly extracted all the marrow I could. I poured it into a container, and there was a lot of it, which was good. Of course I acted carelessly, but the girl was chained to the operating table, so when she started convulsing, it didn't bother me much, temporarily, of course. The whole place was flooded with blood and she was dying fast. I couldn't be careful, and the cramps kept getting worse. Precious minutes were not to be lost, so I had to cut an artery to keep her from twitching.
Next, I drained all the marrow from my iliac bone and a few other places where I could get it with a syringe.
There was blood all over the place, sawed bones sticking out on all sides, and the girl had been dead for almost ten minutes. There wasn't much time left, so I sawed through the sternum and got some more brain out of it.
When twelve minutes knocked, I didn't continue, I just got ready to take the whole brain. The amount was astounding, about three times the usual amount, not even sure how it would wiggle on me. There's probably almost a whole liter of it, though, I doubt it.... But it made me happy.
The guy was on an IV so he shouldn't wake up, making up my mind, I exhaled and said:
«Well, here we go... - Then I quickly began draining the marrow vessel.

I almost threw up, the taste was so awful that tears came out and I almost spit it all out a couple times. But I covered my nose and continued to endure.... I had to find out what was going to happen.....
*♪ Tinkle ♪
Slamming the metal container against the table, I exhaled satisfactorily:
«Haa. It's done.
Nothing was happening, it was suspiciously quiet.... I began to pick up the quiet dripping of blood in the Dudozhnik's IV. The slow dripping of the blood of the girl's tortured body on the floor and my own heartbeat rapidly increasing. The sound was building up...
*♪ Toodum ♪ ♪ Toodum ♪
*♪ Toodum ♪ ♪ Toodum ♪ ♪ Toodum ♪
*Tudum* *Tudum* *Tudum* *Tudum* *Tudum* *Tudum* ....
Suddenly there was a terrible ache in my chest and my eyes were bloodshot.
«Khaaaa... What the... - I fell down and grabbed my chest. My heart felt like it was trying to explode, and my whole body started to burn. The blood in my veins was so hot that I felt like I was melting. All my bones were breaking and I could hear them cracking, and then everything went dark.... The pain went away and there was peace...
