The Origin card Calamity human core was exactly what I intended it to be but also not. It had all the abilities I want it to retain from the calamity seed, viltronian core, mutated soul, kaiju heart but it did not seem to retain the abilities of the Hungry Soulpoles.

All the abilities of the Calamity human core are above and beyond but also demand a lot of soul energy, if not for my soul energy being 4 times refined most of the cards abilities would be just a burden to me. All these abilities are overpowered and soul energy-oriented, they do not have a cooldown period or card effect duration.

For example, Debra’s Skeleton Centaur knight and its undead minion skill. Debra can summon the skeleton centaur knight anytime she wants but the same is not true for the undead minion skill of the Skeleton Centaur knight this skill has a cool-down period of 12 hours. This skill is not soul energy-oriented but time-oriented therefore Debra doesn’t have to worry about the soul energy consumption for the 100+ skeleton soldiers summoned.

People look at cooldown time as a limitation whereas, in reality, it allows the user to access powerful skills which are beyond their strength. If Debra were asked to exchange an equal amount of soul energy for summoning 200 skeleton minions then she could not achieve it with her card soldier strength and wouldn’t be able to access the undead minion skill.

Right now this is true for me too, I cannot switch between two transformations as I wish, each time I transform I break my body to the molecular level and rearrange to get to the higher form or lower form. Though currently I only had access to the Base form core form and Initial form variant Viltronian form which I was currently in. I also required a huge supply of soul energy to unlock my next form and the forms after that. These abilities were overpowered but also have gluttons in terms of soul energy consumption. So I could only use these skills one time at most before I run out of energy.

I knew that a card soldier like me can barely support the energy consumption of these overpowered abilities based on the inherent soul energy absorption aptitude of a card apprentice. Therefore I had used the Soulpoles as an ingredient in the creation of the card. Soulpoles can actively absorb and emit soul energy into nature for defence and to meet their daily consumption. But somehow the abilities of Soulpoles that I had transferred to the original core of the calamity human core card had not surfaced, I even enhanced their soul pathways using High Wood Wisp core but still, these abilities were not incorporated into the origin card.

Therefore I had inspected the card to check for the reason why the hungry Soulpoles ability did not surface in the origin card, turns out that the abilities of the Soulpoles were incorporated into the origin card but the effects of the abilities were so weak that they were neglected from being mentioned in the card info section. High wood wisp core soul pathways were not enough to enhance hungry Soulpoles ability and their soul pathways, they require something with greater vitality than the High wood wisps for the Soulpoles ability to make any contribution for their presence to be noticed in the Origin core.

So in fact the calamity human core was not a total success. It was missing the abilities of soul poles and required huge soul energy when compared to my current realm. Despite its shortcoming, this card was already very satisfying.

But all these shortcomings were answered by the card Calamity Soul core, the product of soul pupils and calamity human core.

[Card Name: Calamity Soul Core

Card Type: Origin card

Card Rank: Unique grade

Card Rate: -/-

Card Durability: -/-

Card Effect: This card gives the host an artificial variant human core designed based on the Viltronian human core and dungeon calamity seed.

1.Soul Pupils- the host gains the ability to see the soul pathways of all things.

2Viltronian Physic – the host has a similar physique to a Viltronian.

3.Immortal Core – The human core has abilities similar to a calamity seed, it can nourish and protect the soul of the host. As long as the core is not destroyed the host is not dead.

4.Body Restructure – The host’s flesh and blood have incorporated soul energy constructs to enhance the host body’s strength, agility, regeneration etc. Using this ability the host can switch between different transformations without the risk of losing the real form.

5.Transformations – this ability allows the host to transform to the higher evolutions,

Base Form – Calamity human core form.

Form one – Variant Viltronian – A viltronian physique enhanced by mutated souls, refined soul energy, variant human core.

Form Two – Kaiju Form, Viltronian Titan

Form Three – locked, conditions not met.

Unlock Form 3 for further transformations.

6.Parent/Daughter soul core – parent core and daughter core are connected by a special link that allows them to communicate regardless of the distance between them.

There is only one parent core and it can produce N number of daughter cores based on the materials provided.

The parent core has total control over the daughter core.

The daughter core can be ingested by a coreless humanoid to gain a similar power to a Daughter calamity human core.

Additional skill – Hive AI

7.Calamity Daughter core – The host can bestow transformation ability to creatures with Daughter calamity human core within them

Base Form – Calamity human core form.

Form one – Mutant Viltronian – A viltronian physique enhanced by mutated souls, refined soul energy, variant human core.

Form Two – locked, conditions not met.

Unlock Form 2 for further transformations.

Additional skill – Hive AI

8.Mutated soul – the host has a mutated soul which double’s upon every large breakthrough.

The mutated soul produces refined soul energy which is purer and denser than normal soul energy. Being pure and denser than the normal soul energy, it can give increased enhancement to the body of the host.

Additional skill- Hive AI.

9. Soul Echolocation – The host can control and produce different frequencies using his/her inherent soul pathways near its mouth and ear for detecting the presence, direction, distance like a natural radar by listening to the reaction of soul pathways in the surrounding area because of the frequency emitted by the host.

10. Soul energy manipulation – The host gains abilities to absorb, store and emit soul energy in large quantities in his/her flesh and blood.]

Reading the card info of the Calamity Soul Core its predecessor Calamity human core did not feel overpowered any longer. As the result of combining with soul pupils, the soul related abilities of the origin card have undergone a huge transformation and also resulted in new soul related skills like soul energy manipulation, modified Soul Echolocation and now Calamity Daughter core was a separate skill from Parent/Daughter Core. Not to mention that even the Soul pupils were also adopted by the new origin card.

Most importantly the second form of the transformation ability had been unlocked, and the only reason for this has to be the consumption of 800+ soul cores I had piled up below for the reconstruction of my body. The reconstruction of my body took 10 soul jades but the remaining soul jades were absorbed to unlock the third form of my transformation ability.

It seems that the soul abilities of the hungry Soulpoles were enhanced by a great margin after family human core and soul pupils dominated to form a single-origin card. Leading to the formation of Soul energy manipulation skill. The unlocked second form was the Kaiju form showcasing the power of the kaiju heart I used as an ingredient, but what surprised me was that my Kaiju form was a Viltronian Titan. I do not know what kind of monster a Viltronian titan is but considering it’s a Viltronian it should be strong.

Soul energy manipulation is the higher version skill of the hungry Soulpoles, it enhances the user’s inherent soul energy absorption ability and gives the host the ability to store soul energy in his/her flesh and blood enhancing the physique of the body. It also gives the host the option to emit the soul energy in the form of constructs or projectiles for defence and offence.

The combination of the card had also enhanced the natural ability of the dungeon calamity seed, parent/daughter core. Leading to a new separate calamity daughter core.

Calamity daughter core is a separate skill but it is still dependent on its stem skill parent and daughter for the creation of daughter cores. The function of this skill is to give holders of calamity daughter core the transformation ability of the parent calamity core.

The calamity daughter core also has a Hive AI which is the baptized and evolved version of my slave program. Not just the calamity daughter core but the mutated soul also had a Hive AI.
