Chapter 437: The Sinful Dragon雏形 of Dark Demon (4k)
It was meaningless to worry about names.
While Dark successfully obtained an improved version of “Bliss III Moon,” he also brought forth more questions.
Firstly, the discussion on how to fuse two or more “Capital Sins” and its significance.
Secondly, the meaning and potential extraction and application of the “Dark Factor.”
Lastly, the tactical changes and extensions brought by the successful modification of “Bliss III Moon.”
Of course, the last one was the least important but closest.
“Has it already been eleven?”
After summarizing the experiment, Dark glanced at the wall clock, feeling somewhat tired and realizing he didn’t have enough time. So he decided to postpone the next experiment until tomorrow.
Coincidentally, the next day was Wednesday, so he planned to continue the experiment in the afternoon.
Before that, he washed the “Cat Grass” thoroughly and fed it three points of “Pride,” causing a fresh green sprout to grow atop it.
Although feeding “Cat Grass” seven points of “Capital Sin” could smoothly yield a “Capital Sin Fruit,” Dark always felt it was a bit forced. Thus, whenever possible, he gave the “Capital Sin Fruit” some development time.
…
On Wednesday afternoon, there were no classes, giving him ample time.
Dark postponed the second improvement and creation of “Bliss III Moon” until evening and started the long-awaited alchemy of the mana spirit in the dormitory.
Unlike the improvement and creation of “Bliss III Moon,” Dark prioritized the alchemy of dragon species.
This time, every material he planned to use was extremely rare and precious!
Especially the “Dragon’s Inverted Scale,” which was not only valuable but also held significant meaning.
So, while he was highly enthusiastic, he was also cautious!
At the beginning of the experiment, he first listed the formula on his notebook: “Fusion Factor” + “Pride Fruit (Dragon)” + “Dragon’s Inverted Scale” + “White Dragon Pearl” = ?
Among these four materials, Dark was unclear about the grade of the “Dragon’s Inverted Scale.”
The other three materials were well-known to him.
But in this equation, the “Dragon’s Inverted Scale” was the core.
Thus, he couldn’t estimate what level of mana spirit would be created, only hoping for the best.
…
“In any case, I’ll feed the remaining ‘Pride’ to the ‘Dragon Grass.'”
Dark put down his pen, walked to the Dragon Grass, picked it up with both hands, and held it in his arms. The Dragon Grass instinctively shrank slightly.
After being raised for so long, this Dragon Grass was still timid, only showing enthusiasm in narrow, dark environments.
Dark carried it to the balcony, opened the fence of the “Worm Tree,” allowing it to absorb the “Worm Branch.”
Last night, the Dragon Grass tasted “Pride” for the first time. Now it greedily sucked it up.
Once it finished absorbing one branch, Dark used the “Mana Dropper” to divide the remaining “Pride” and inject it back into the branch, allowing it to continue absorbing.
As the “Flower of Arrogance” gradually bloomed atop its head, it emitted a faint light.
Inside the flower, the lower part of the ovary rapidly expanded, and the embryo developed into a fruit.
Meanwhile, the lustrous dark golden petals began to wither visibly.
When the Dragon Grass satisfiedly raised its head, all the petals had withered into powder, leaving only a round fruit and a stem on its head.
Dark carefully plucked the fiery red fruit and cut off the stem, storing it carefully.
Until today, Dark had saved several stems of “Capital Sin Fruits,” which could serve as auxiliary ingredients when needed.
He smiled slightly, summoned “Huhu,” placed the round “Pride Fruit” in its hole, and ordered it to begin fermentation.
When the “Pride Fruit” turned into juice, all the ingredients were ready.
This time, he used the “Dragon Species – Light Attribute” alchemy method, though it still had some randomness, he did guide it somewhat.
Dark steadied himself and began the experiment with great caution.
Nearly an hour later, he injected mana to activate the First Alchemy Array, first adding the auxiliary materials and “Saliva” as catalysts, then slowly pouring the juice of the “Pride Fruit” into it.
Inside the First Alchemy Array, a dark golden nebula intertwined with fiery red streaks formed, with the fiery red gradually swirling towards the center, converging into a blazing sun.
Around the nebula flowed blue water-like energy, symbolizing the Water Attribute.
Dark watched the processed “Dragon’s Inverted Scale” and “White Dragon Pearl,” choosing to melt the “White Dragon Pearl” first.
As the “White Dragon Pearl” was placed into the array, the Light Attribute of the “Pride Fruit” gradually emerged.
He injected more mana, stirring it to further draw out the Light Attribute, causing the nebula inside the array to gradually shift from dark gold to pure white.
When all attributes leaned towards the Light Attribute, Dark finally added the last “Dragon’s Inverted Scale.”
His expression became increasingly serious, and his control over mana became finer.
The inverted scale floating in the nebula was gradually melted within, and the light from the array suddenly intensified!
“It worked!”
Dark’s heart stirred, and he immediately adjusted the mana output.
At its peak, the light from the array suddenly contracted, and the entire array shrank into the card surface, flashing increasingly rapidly.
Dark solemnly observed the changes in this mana spirit card.
About two minutes later, some black substances suddenly oozed from the card surface and rapidly multiplied, covering it like a pool of mud.
Another two minutes passed, and the reaction of the mana spirit card finally stopped.
Dark used tools to remove the mud and revealed the “Light Cocoon” hidden beneath.
“It seems to have gone smoothly.”
Dark let out a sigh of relief.
Then, he took out a small silver knife and carefully sliced open the cocoon from top to bottom.
In an instant, a sacred aura burst forth, and white light surged out like a flood, illuminating the entire bedroom.
Dark took a deep breath and raised his hand.
The mana spirits’ gazes followed the white light, all turning to look at him.
“Another Light Attribute mana spirit?”
Deoxys approached with a slight frown.
Dark nodded, “It should be. Hopefully, it’s a dragon that can be ridden.”
Indeed, he had left a thought after seeing Claire riding a dragon away before Christmas.
After all, who wouldn’t want to ride a dragon?
…
Once the white light faded, Dark used tweezers to pick up the mana spirit card covered with black stains and washed it clean in the sink.
As the surface layer of the mana spirit card gradually exposed itself, a faint golden aura radiated out.
“Another Gold Card? It seems the quality of that dragon scale is indeed high, increasing the probability of creating a high-star dragon species!”
Dark’s eyes lit up as he brought the clean mana spirit card close to his eyes.
First, he noticed the stars on the card—six in total!
But…
“Only six?”
Six stars were the highest in the second tier, but they were still only in the second tier.
Dark originally thought that this time, it might create a third-tier mana spirit card—if it was a “Blue-Eyed White Dragon,” it could even be eight stars!
In other words, six stars meant it couldn’t be a “Blue-Eyed White Dragon.”
Dark’s gaze involuntarily shifted to the mana spirit on the card.
This made his slightly dim gaze brighten again.
Though the mana spirit on the card wasn’t a “Blue-Eyed White Dragon,” it was very similar to his impression of it.
A silver dragon with blue eyes, this dragon species and the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” differed only in its unusually young appearance.
Yes, this was a baby dragon!
A six-star baby dragon!
…
Dark observed it closely, finding it increasingly similar to the “Blue-Eyed White Dragon.” His mind formed some guesses, and he immediately injected mana into the card, receiving feedback.
[Card Name: Baby Blue-Eye Dragon]
[Type: Mana Spirit Card]
[Level: ??????]
[Race: Dragon]
[Attribute: Light Type]
[Magic Power: 2500]
[Attack: 3000]
[Defense: 2500]
[Ultimate Skills: Dragon Egg Conversion, Baby Dragon’s Call, Dragon’s Inverted Scale, Light Hall.]
“Baby Blue-Eye Dragon? Could it be the baby form of the Blue-Eyed White Dragon…”
Dark rubbed his eyes, then looked at the attack and defense values of the “Baby Blue-Eye Dragon”—3000 and 2500 respectively—which made him smile again.
“A six-star dragon species, a strong offensive Light-type, even though it’s a baby dragon, it has the same attack and defense as the ‘Blue-Eyed White Dragon’ in ‘Yu-Gi-Oh!’ Let’s see its ultimate skills…”
Dark first looked at the ultimate skill that caught his interest—”Dragon Egg Conversion!”
He felt that this unknown ultimate skill might be the essence of this “Baby Blue-Eye Dragon!”
[Dragon Egg Conversion: Returning to the initial state, the Baby Blue-Eye Dragon can gather its essence and transform back into a dragon egg, thus returning to its original form.]
“Transform back into a dragon egg, restore to the initial state? Is this an ultimate skill akin to a phoenix’s rebirth?”
Dark pondered.
An ultimate skill that could fully restore the state was undoubtedly excellent.
However, it could be imagined that this ultimate skill’s cooldown would be extremely long.
Perhaps it’s like “Moon Palace Gala,” a 24-hour cooldown ultimate skill.
“But it’s not necessarily so. We’ll have to see how long it takes to hatch from the egg again and how strong the egg’s defense is.”
“If the egg can be easily shattered in its egg state, it won’t be ideal.”
“In any case, we need to try it to know.”
Dark left this suspense unresolved and moved on to the second ultimate skill—”Baby Dragon’s Call!”
[Baby Dragon’s Call: When in danger, the Baby Blue-Eye Dragon calls to the sky, temporarily summoning a white dragon with blue eyes to its side.]
“An ultimate skill for summoning?”
Dark’s eyes lit up.
If “Dragon Egg Conversion” hadn’t surprised him much, then “Baby Dragon’s Call” perfectly filled the gap.
As the saying goes, “If you hit the little one, the big one comes.”
This Baby Blue-Eye Dragon could use “Baby Dragon’s Call” to summon a Blue-Eyed White Dragon—or perhaps even its various subspecies!
This was clearly a powerful ultimate skill, enabling the summoning of “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” and other blue-eyed light attribute white dragons directly onto the field without any cost.
Although it’s explicitly stated as temporary, a few minutes of summon duration would suffice.
The only issue was…
There must be at least one “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” or another blue-eyed light attribute white dragon available.
Although Dark had created a “Baby Blue-Eye Dragon,” creating a second one would be very difficult.
Even though this creation was nearly directed, it wasn’t quite there yet.
Moreover, acquiring all the necessary materials for the creation was extremely challenging.
For now, it’s out of the question.
But even so, it remained a powerful ultimate skill.
If one day Dark could create multiple “Blue-Eyed White Dragons,” he could build a “Blue-Eyed Deck” centered around this “Baby Blue-Eye Dragon.”
He then looked at the third ultimate skill—”Dragon’s Inverted Scale.”
[Dragon’s Inverted Scale: The Baby Blue-Eye Dragon shatters its own scales, entering a rage state where its attack power increases by 50% to 100%, but it enters a chaotic state lasting three minutes.]
“A classic ultimate skill that sacrifices rationality for a massive boost in attack power. The only advantage is that the increase in attack power is decent.”
Dark shook his head slightly; he didn’t like ultimate skills that made mana spirits lose their sense of self. Fortunately, it had a limited duration, making it somewhat controllable.
“Next is the final ultimate skill.”
He then looked at the last ultimate skill—”Light Hall.”
[Light Hall: The Baby Blue-Eye Dragon offers a prayer, summoning the Light Hall. Mana spirits of the Light Attribute regain life in the Light Hall as spirit forms.
The duration of the Light Hall is three minutes. The spirit form lasts three minutes and is unaffected by the disappearance of the Light Hall.]
“Another field spell!”
“And one that allows mana spirits to temporarily revive!”
Dark’s mind raced.
He knew that “Yu-Gi-Oh!” had a field spell card called “Light Hall,” but clearly, their effects were different.
“This is obviously a core ultimate skill for building a Light Attribute deck.”
“Unfortunately, among my mana spirits, only Deoxys is Light Attribute.”
“In summary, this ‘Baby Blue-Eye Dragon’ is a mana spirit card with immense potential, but it doesn’t seem to fit well with my current deck lineup.”
After careful consideration, Dark decided to summon this “Baby Blue-Eye Dragon” and see what happens.
“Perhaps there’s something I haven’t fully understood yet.”
