Chapter 440: The Most Unique Wet Nurse in History
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The Corpse Wizard King was more interested in new and strange objects than other people, and he quickly led the crowd to capture dozens of spiders, Evil Eyes, and other low-level Magical Beasts.
“Lord, why do you have to try it with some spiders? Why don’t we capture some Dark Dragons and try it with them?” As the Corpse Wizard King observed the Beast Soul Altar that was filled with energy, he revealed an evil grin. “Hehehe, I wonder what we will get after refining a male dragon and a female spider. Will we get a female dragon or a male spider?”
“I can assure you that it will surely be a female dragon, a dark female dragon that had a spider-like butt.” The Flying Dragon King Seylius smiled and looked at the Dark Dragon King next to him, before he said, “At that time, our several thousand years old bachelor Dark Dragon King will finally get a companion.”
“That is right. It will have a dark dragon’s body and a spider-like butt. It will surely be the best among the best.” The Shadow Wizard Winnink also joined in the fun.
The Purple Rat Little Ice next to them cried ceaselessly as if it were laughing, and it was also the case for the Thousand-faced Mink lying on Yang Ling’s shoulder. It covered its small mouth with its paw while its face became flushed out of excessive laughter. They still didn’t evolve into a Level Surpassing Magical Beast and weren’t able to take a humanoid form or speak, but those two little creatures were still smarter than everyone.
“Hehe, I also want to know what will happen if we refine a withered Corpse Wizard and a fat Sharo Pig together, and what kind of monster we will get.” The Dark Dragon King spoke while cracking his fingers, and he approached the Corpse Wizard King while walking like a gangster.
The Corpse Wizard King was forced to turn around and move back. He possessed powerful Mind Magic, but when it came to bodily power, even ten of him wasn’t a match for the meat shield-like Dark Dragon King.
As Yang Ling observed the talkative Corpse Wizard King, Dark Dragon King, and the other old foxes, he shook his head and laughed. He instructed the Orc Priest Augustus to put a Red-haired Tarantula and a horned beast on the altar. He wanted to see the changes that would occur after refining them.
After Augustus put two little Magical Beasts on the altar, he quickly moved back and started muttering in a low voice. Symbols quickly appeared atop the altar, while intense energy ripples emanated from it, and formed faint black mist around it that became thicker as time passed.
Squeak!
After the Red-haired Tarantula and the horned beast absorbed the strange black mist, they let out sharp cries, before they started fighting viciously, and they started tearing at each other with their teeth. The Red-haired Tarantula sprayed out deadly venom repeatedly, while the horned beast shot out sharp venomous stings. Both beasts ended up caught in a bitter battle, and as time passed, the black mist became thicker, and the crowd couldn’t see the concrete situation any longer. They could only hear some noises echoing out.
Was it a hallucinogen, or…
As Yang Ling observed the black mist engulfing the altar that didn’t scatter even after a long while, he muttered to himself. He didn’t expect that the refining process would be so bloody. It was no wonder that Augustus stated that the most powerful Magical Beast would be the main body for the refining, and would get the other Magical Beasts’ ability and traits. It turned out that this was the reason behind it.
It didn’t matter how many Magical Beasts were put there, as they would all lose reason and carry out a chaotic battle. It was only the strongest Magical Beast that could survive until the end.
After a short while, the altar descended into silence, and it seemed like the outcome of the battle of the two Magical Beasts that fought crazily was determined. The strange black mist quickly dissipated, and after the crowd observed the altar carefully, they didn’t get to see anything other than bloodstains. Both the Tarantula and horned beast strangely disappeared.
“What? What happened?” The crowd was surprised, and they looked in confusion at the Orc Priest Augustus.
“The Magical Beasts’ mutation is uncontrollable, and such an occurrence isn’t strange at all.” Augustus wanted to make a good name for himself among the crowd, and this was why after he witnessed the failure of the first try, he found himself in an awkward position, and his face became flushed. “The black mist is the altar’s essence, and it can’t just stimulate Magical Beasts’ potential, it can also absorb their power’s essence. This was why the Magical Beasts’ mutation is uncontrollable and unpredictable.”
“Tsk, tsk. How can this be still considered a mutation? It’s just a graveyard of Magical Beasts.” After the Flying Dragon King Seylius got over his shock, he lowered his head as he looked at the bloodstains on the altar, and he moved away from Yang Ling by several steps. He was afraid that Yang Ling would send him there as a guinea pig.
“This is… I still haven’t taken care of a certain matter, and I will come back later.” The Flying Dragon King Seylius responded quickly.
As the Dark Dragon King, he also responded quickly, and he came up with an excuse. He raised a boulder and started walking around with it. He called it muscle training.
Squeak!
When the Purple Rat Little Ice and the Thousand-faced Mink discerned that Yang Ling was looking at them with a smile, they looked at the Flying Dragon King and the Dark Dragon King that came up with an excuse to leave. They also had a quick reaction, and as a swooshing sound echoed, they ran away, and hid behind a giant boulder, while they looked sneakily at Yang Ling.
Moreover, the Thousand-faced Mink had made an even more exaggerated response, and it covered its eyes with its plump paws, and observed Yang Ling’s actions through the gap between its paws, while its pointy ears were both erect. It seemed like a rabbit that was ready to escape at any moment.
“Tsk, tsk. Am I so scary?” As Yang Ling observed the crowd that fled one after the other as if they faced a calamity, and observed his Magical Beasts that looked at him sneakily, he shook his head and chuckled. “Rodriguez, put ten spiders and twenty horned beasts in one go. You should also add to them five Evil Eyes.”
“Huh? Okay!”
When the Corpse Wizard King saw the scarlet bloodstains on the Beast Soul Altar, he was also scared. He wasn’t a Magical Beast, yet he was still scared that Yang Ling would be prompted by a sudden impulse and use him as a guinea pig. This was why the Corpse Wizard King threw the pitiful spiders, horned beasts, and Evil Eyes at the altar from a long distance.
It didn’t seem like the altar had any obstructions on it, yet the Magical Beasts threw it only circled around on it and couldn’t come out of it. It seemed like the altar was in itself a strange illusory formation spell, and it could strand Magical Beasts in it.
After the Orc Priest Augustus asked for Yang Ling’s instructions, he started uttering incantations softly once again, and black mist quickly rose on the altar like last time. Afterward, the Magical Beasts started tearing at each other crazily, and the battle became more bloody due to a large number of Magical Beasts present there, while it also lasted longer. The process lasted for a whole hour before the black mist engulfing the altar started dissipating slowly.
Is it another failure?
Augustus waited for a while, yet he didn’t get to hear anything, and that was why his face became flushed out of embarrassment. He felt uncomfortable all over as if he had just made a mistake, and he hated the weakness that prevented him from inducing a Magical Beast’s mutation.
Orc Priests were divided into Wind Whisperer Priest, Soul Priests, Staff Priests, Divine Temple Priest, and Beast Soul Priests. Their power rose further with every grade, while every grade was divided into an initial level, middle level, and high-level. Augustus was just an initial level Staff Priest, and he knew how to construct the Beast Soul Altar, but this was still the first time he used it, and he ended up failing two times in succession. He was more nervous than everyone, and he wondered whether he made any mistakes in the incantation, or if the altar had any flaw or defect.
“We won’t get anything out of trying with such little Magical Beasts. It would be better to try it with a dark dragon, and if it wasn’t feasible, let’s capture several Twin-legged Flying Dragon, and try it with them.” The black mist around the altar became fainter, but the Corpse Wizard King still didn’t get to hear any sound from the altar. This was why he shook his head and spoke while he observed the altar carefully in confusion.
“Huh? What is that?” He saw faintly a strange creature lying on the altar.
It was as big as a pup, and it seemed like a Red-haired Tarantula, but its body didn’t have any fur, and it was more barren than the Sahara Desert, while it still had a black horn growing out of its head. The horn’s shape was similar to a horned beast’s horn, but it was bigger by several folds. Moreover, what was strange about this creature was that its plump face had a single eye, and it resembled the Evil Eye’s single eye, and there were many wrinkles around that said eye.
It was disgusting and ugly. It was so disgusting and ugly.
The Corpse Wizard King shook his head. In his eyes, even the rotten corpses and eerie skeleton were more attractive than the monster on the altar. After he muttered to himself for a moment, he summoned two skeleton warriors and ordered them to drag out the monster so that he could observe it carefully.
Gurgle!
It seemed like the monster that was as big as a puppy was either exhausted or starved, and this was why it had to strive hard to open its eyes. It looked in confusion at the withered Corpse Wizard King and cried out several times before it observed the surroundings blankly. It was twitching its nose ceaselessly, and it seemed like it was looking for delicious food.
“Hehe, Augustus, why did you make such a fool?” As Corpse Wizard King observed the foolish monster, he laughed and crouched down to tap its small head. “The Magical Power in its body is pretty good, but it’s a pity that its Spiritual Intelligence is too low, and it still can’t make sense of anything even after a long time. It isn’t qualified to join the Magical Beast Realm, and it’s better to turn it into an Undead Being.”
The Corpse Wizard King spoke while he put his hand against the monster’s body. He started reciting incantations and got ready to examine further the Magical Power in its power, but when he chanted half of the incantations, a surprising matter occurred.
The monster pounced at the Corpse Wizard King near it, and its spiderish limb tore apart his clothes, while its pointy mouth that resembled a fox’s mouth bit the Corpse Wizard King’s dried left nipple accurately, and it started sucking on it strongly like a weaned little beast.
A monster that sucked on a breast for milk?
After the Dark Dragon King, Flying Dragon King, and the others got over their shock, they started laughing loudly. They didn’t expect that refining dozen spiders, horned beasts, and Evil Eyes would make such a stupid monster. If it sought the Tarantula Queen that had two large breasts, it would have been understandable, but it sought the withered Corpse Wizard King. It was really a fool among fools!
If the withered Corpse Wizard King could produce any milk, then even a Sharo Pig that only knew eating and sleeping would get to climb trees.
Could this be considered a success or a failure?
As Yang Ling observed the Corpse Wizard King that kicked the monster in fluster, he shook his head and chuckled bitterly. The Beast Soul Altar was really unpredictable, and it could make even such a weirdo. But, even though this monster was slightly ugly and stupid, it still had pretty good brute power and speed. It seemed like it inherited the power of spiders and the speed of horned beasts, and it seemed like its brute force was even higher than spiders, as it could pin even the Corpse Wizard King on the ground.
If he put the Tarantula Queen, Evil Eye Tyrant and other Magical Beast Kings on the altar, and added to them a large number of spiders, horned beasts, Evil Eyes, and other common low-level Magical Beasts, as well as several Twin-legged Flying Dragon, Chimeras and other high-level Magical Beasts, would he get a powerful mutant Magical Beast?
Yang Ling discerned that the comprehensive power of the monster surpassed greatly ordinary spiders, horned beasts, and other low-level Magical Beasts, and this was why he got lost in his thoughts. Now, he had a large number of low-level Magical Beast next to him, but he didn’t have enough Level Surpassing Magical Beasts such as the Dark Dragon King. If he could use the Beast Soul Altar to make powerful mutant beasts, then even if he had to consume a large number of low-level Magical Beasts, it would still be worth it. After all, low-level Magical Beasts could be found everywhere in Terras Forest and the Amazon Rainforest, while powerful Level Surpassing Magical Beasts could only be met by chance.
