Chapter 751: One Card Serving Two Masters 4k
“Huh?”
Although Diana was puzzled, she obediently took the Mana Guidance Ball and injected her mana into it.
However, the mana she injected sank without a trace as expected.
“Can you get any feedback?” Dark asked.
Diana shook her head, looking confused. “What’s wrong?”
The Mana Spirit Card that Rose had refined was clearly personalized. It was normal for other Mana Spirit Cards besides hers to be unable to use or see the information within.
In other words, the current situation was very abnormal.
Facing this unprecedented special case, Dark found it hard to explain immediately and could only cautiously ask, “Have you ever seen a Mana Spirit Card with two masters before?”
Diana blinked and honestly shook her head.
On the other hand, Rose had not yet properly examined her new Mana Spirit Card since its creation. When she suddenly realized the uniqueness of the situation, she did not immediately retrieve the Mana Guidance Ball to inspect it carefully but instead curiously asked, “Can it be summoned?”
Receiving feedback did not completely prove anything.
If it could be summoned, then it truly would be one card serving two masters!
Upon hearing this, Dark retrieved the [Flame Bunny] from Diana’s hands and summoned it right away:
“In the name of Dark Demon, Mana Summoning—[Flame Bunny]!”
Thus, the lively [Flame Bunny] appeared in the summoning light.
There was no obstruction at all!
Dark took a deep breath, restraining himself from immediately using [Bliss III] to evolve it.
When the [Flame Bunny] materialized, its ruby eyes gleamed with moisture, showing the obvious influence of [Bliss].
After landing, it suddenly turned around, displaying its remarkable jumping ability. With a powerful leap, it dove straight into Dark’s arms, rubbing against him forcefully.
It seemed as if Dark was the one who had created and summoned it.
Seeing this scene, Rose instinctively opened her mouth, feeling inexplicably sour.
Of course, she would never admit to being jealous of her own Mana Spirit Card.
After calming down the [Flame Bunny], Dark suddenly returned it to the Mana Guidance Ball and handed it to Rose.
Since this [Flame Bunny] belonged to Rose, he did not want to repeatedly experiment and planned to wait until Rose summoned it, then use [Bliss III] for a single trial.
…
Rose took the Mana Guidance Ball and immediately injected mana to examine the information.
Her eyes gradually widened in surprise.
The surface data of the [Flame Bunny] was already impressive, and the combination of its ultimate skills exuded a formidable aura.
The resistance state provided by the [Free Spirit] made it immune to control, and its naturally fast speed became even faster under the enhancement of [Accumulate Flame Strike].
The speed of a Mana Spirit greatly influenced battles.
Dark’s [Long-Eared Rabbit] had perfectly demonstrated the power of speed just a few nights ago.
Rose lacked such a high-attack, high-speed Mana Spirit, so having the [Flame Bunny] would effectively fill the gap.
She quickly realized that this [Flame Bunny] might possess similar hidden potential as Dark’s Mana Spirits!
“Let’s give it a try.”
Just as she raised her head to seek confirmation, she heard Dark’s voice and instinctively began the summoning.
“In the name of Rose Florette, Mana Summoning—[Flame Bunny]!”
Thus, the [Flame Bunny] was summoned again.
But with its red eyes, after turning half a circle, it abandoned its true master and rushed towards Dark Demon again.
“Giggling…”
Diana’s laughter echoed.
Rose pouted like a child whose lollipop had been taken away.
“Whose Mana Spirit are you?”
She couldn’t help but complain.
…
“Next, I need to do an evolution experiment.”
Dark took out [Bliss III] and showed it to Rose.
Both Rose and Diana were well-acquainted with Dark’s Mana Guidance Balls and naturally understood what he meant.
Diana opened her mouth to ask if his [Bliss III] could affect other people’s Mana Spirits, but then reconsidered. The [Flame Bunny] might not even belong to anyone, so she closed her mouth again.
“In the name of Dark Demon, Mana Summoning—[Bliss III]!”
Dark controlled the power of [Bliss III], condensing it into a beam of light that directly shone into the [Flame Bunny]’s forehead.
As the [Bliss] emblem emerged on its skin, the [Flame Bunny] was enveloped in light and indeed began evolving!
In fact, from the moment Dark discovered he could view the [Flame Bunny]’s information, he had a relatively clear prediction of the experimental results.
He wasn’t surprised as he watched the [Flame Bunny] evolve into [Soaring Warrior] under the influence of [Bliss III].
[Soaring Warrior] was twice as tall as [Flame Bunny] but still petite, with its originally snow-white fur now a combination of gray, red, and black.
Its ears drooped, and its eyes remained red, though with a cold gaze that melted almost instantly.
The overall coloration made it look like it was wearing a yellow hat, a red scarf, black shorts, and red shoes, resembling a tiny soccer player.
To prevent it from showing inappropriate attitudes during its first evolution, Dark quickly picked it up, pressing it to his chest, then said to Rose, “See the changes.”
Rose stared wide-eyed at [Soaring Warrior], reacting two seconds later and immediately checking excitedly.
—
[Card Name: Soaring Warrior]
[Type: Elemental]
[Level: ????]
[Race: Avian-beast Kin]
[Attribute: Fire]
[Mana: 2000]
[Attack: 2700]
[Defense: 1200]
[Ultimate Skills: Free Spirit, Bounce, Accumulate Flame Strike, Free Shoot]
—
“It really evolved into a five-star Mana Spirit!”
Rose’s eyes sparkled.
Anyone who had witnessed Dark’s duels could not help but envy his evolution system.
Rose never imagined she would one day obtain an evolvable Mana Spirit.
This Christmas gift was too precious!
Seeing her standing motionless, Dark couldn’t help asking, “May I see it?”
“Yes!” Rose nodded firmly and handed the Mana Guidance Ball, which had become [Soaring Warrior], to Dark.
Dark immediately injected mana to examine it.
[Soaring Warrior]’s attack stood out, while its mana was barely passing, and defense remained a weakness.
And its ultimate skills… it had four of them!
After evolving, it indeed upgraded from an orange card to a gold card.
Dark immediately checked the details of the ultimate skills. Among the four ultimate skills of [Soaring Warrior], [Free Spirit] and [Accumulate Flame Strike] were retained.
These two ultimate skills were originally the core abilities of [Flame Bunny], and their retention was naturally good.
With a significant increase in basic attack, the boost provided by [Accumulate Flame Strike] became even more exaggerated, providing a 270-point boost in its normal state and reaching 540 points when released, comparable to weapon-type passives.
But the boost in attack was just one aspect; the core was faster speed.
[Soaring Warrior] lacked [Double Kick] but gained [Bounce].
[Bounce] was an airborne ultimate skill, further enhancing the breadth of [Free Spirit].
—
[Bounce: Soaring Warrior accumulates strength, doubling its jumping ability. After leaping into the air, it enters a brief “flight” state, gaining the ability to float.]
—
The accumulation of leg strength not only increased jump capability but also inevitably boosted attack power.
While [Double Kick] had low power, [Bounce] compensated with considerable force and short-term floating ability, greatly enhancing [Soaring Warrior]’s attack range.
But the most crucial ultimate skill of [Soaring Warrior] was still the last one, [Free Shoot]!
[Soaring Warrior] would only learn its exclusive ultimate skill, [Flame Ball], after further evolving into [Flash Blaze Ace].
Before that, it possessed a series of “kick” and “shoot” techniques.
And [Free Shoot] summarized these techniques.
—
[Free Shoot: Soaring Warrior excels in ball skills, able to freely switch shooting methods, including ① Double Kick ② Flame Kick ③ Mud Shot ④ Low Kick ⑤ Trash Shot ⑥ Headbutt. All shooting techniques share cooldowns and receive a 20% power boost.]
[Double Kick: Fighting type, Soaring Warrior uses both feet to kick opponents continuously, dealing damage twice in succession.]
[Flame Kick: Fire type, Soaring Warrior attacks opponents, sometimes causing burn status, making it easier to hit vital spots.]
[Mud Shot: Ground type, Soaring Warrior kicks mud blocks at opponents, reducing their speed simultaneously.]
[Low Kick: Fighting type, Soaring Warrior aims for opponents’ legs with agile movements, reducing their speed and causing them to fall.]
[Trash Shot: Poison type, Soaring Warrior kicks dirty trash containing toxins at opponents, sometimes causing poison status.]
[Headbutt: Normal type, Soaring Warrior uses headers, diving at opponents with headbutts, sometimes causing opponents to flinch.]
—
[Free Shoot] combined with [Free Spirit] allowed [Soaring Warrior] to freely switch between fighting, fire, normal, ground, and poison types, significantly expanding the characteristics of [Free Spirit].
Unfortunately, all shooting techniques shared cooldowns, meaning seamless switching and consecutive use of six ultimate skills was impossible…
“At least the cooldown isn’t particularly long.”
“And the passive effect boosting power by 20% compensates for some of the weaker shooting techniques.”
After examining, Dark returned the Mana Guidance Ball to Rose.
Of course, he returned the Mana Guidance Ball itself.
[Soaring Warrior] clung tightly to his chest, making it impossible to pull away.
He relished [Soaring Warrior]’s ultimate skills, imagining it charging through the duel arena, kicking the opposing Mana Guidance Ball into oblivion.
High speed, strong attack, and agility, coupled with the high intelligence gained from awakening, made surface data irrelevant in evaluating its strength.
…
Rose, holding the Mana Guidance Ball, excitedly discussed [Soaring Warrior]’s ultimate skills with Diana.
At one point, Diana suddenly mentioned something, and Rose suddenly looked up, mumbling, “I forgot, I don’t have an evolution card…”
The room temperature dropped slightly, and [Soaring Warrior] sensitively turned its head, secretly glancing at its true master.
Dark squinted, contemplating whether he could provide [Bliss] to help Rose create her own [Bliss] card.
Theoretically, since using [Bliss Fruit] successfully created [Flame Bunny], there was a good chance of successfully creating a [Bliss] card using [Bliss] itself…
“Let’s give it a try!”
His thirst for knowledge grew, even increasing his [Greed].
Currently, the [Moon Goddess Edition Bliss] in his possession exceeded a thousand. Simple experiments were still manageable.
Moreover, the method of creating a [Bliss] card wasn’t much of a secret. If he didn’t use runes and simply used the initial creation method, there was no risk of leaking it.
So he said, “My evolution system is derived from the mental magic system. By forming a mental bond with a Mana Spirit that has potential, powerful mental power can trigger its latent abilities, leading to evolution. Therefore, even without a Mana Guidance Ball, it can still evolve.”
This wasn’t baseless.
The super evolutions of [Imp Beast], [Demon Fox Beast], [Deoxys], and others had given him a deeper understanding of his own evolution system.
Once he reached the second chapter, “Mindfire,” in the cultivation of [Magic Fire], he would begin trying to evolve Mana Spirits without relying on [Capital Sin Cards], purely through mental power and bonds.
Only then would his evolution system be truly mature, marking a new phase in studying [Capital Sin].
For now, however, he was still far from that stage.
Therefore, he changed the subject, saying, “But we can start by experimenting with the creation of evolution cards.”
Immediately afterward, he returned to the dormitory to fetch a thought bottle filled with [Moon Goddess Edition Bliss] and began the experiment.
Starting with the simplest [Bliss I].
[Bliss I] was initially developed based on the method of creating emotion cards, with extremely low difficulty… or rather, no difficulty at all.
Unexpectedly, however, things did not go as planned.
No matter how many times she repeated it, Rose couldn’t successfully create even a single [Bliss I]!
And if she couldn’t create [Bliss I], there was no point in attempting [Bliss II] and [Bliss III].
“Where’s the problem? What’s different between creating [Bliss Cards] and [Bliss Mana Spirits]?”
Dark fell into deep thought.
Meanwhile, after several failures, Rose inevitably felt disappointed.
Unable to create an evolution card meant she couldn’t replicate Dark’s success route.
If she wanted to evolve [Flame Bunny], she would have to focus on the mental power system.
But how could she master mental power?
And would ordinary mental power suffice?
Similarly pondering these questions, Dark decisively retrieved the [Magic Fire] text.
