Chapter 61 Dark Demon's Second Magical Spirit Card
***Edited By Kronost***
"Meow meow meow!"
Dark put the cat grass on his thigh and scratched its chin while carefully observing the flower bud on top of its head.
In general, cat grass would also subconsciously protect its bud. So that it is not damaged.
Dark suppressed the desire for "one more drop" and tried to construct another research subject:
"If [Pride] is no longer increased, can normal cultivation be used to make flower buds bloom?"
After all, autumn is the season when cat grasses blossom and bear fruit.
Thinking this way, Dark finally repressed the impulse.
When the situation is fairly stable, there is really no need to take this risk.
After all, the brain is the most complex system of the human body. Even if there is a small accident, it would cause irreparable damage.
Dark succeeded in stabilizing his heart by relying on the self-control he honed this month.
But he soon came up with a new idea: even if the flower hasn't bloomed, he could still conduct other experiments.
Although the flower bud can not be touched, cat grass itself is a succulent plant, and the hair on its body is analogous to the thorns of a cactus.
Its absorption and transformation of [Pride] could not be 100%.
Part of the leak is likely to spread throughout its body.
So, Dark wondered if it is possible to experiment with cat hair first?
Thinking of this, Dark opened the "Magical Spirit Crafting- General Manual '' and quickly found the basic crafting methods of [ Bird & Beast type - Grass attribute] and [Plant type - Grass attribute].
At present, the cat grass did not show other attributes, and based on its ecology, it is a Bird & Beast type cat from the outside, but it was a plant-type in essence.
So for the time being, he can experiment from these two paths.
He excerpted these two basic methods to make them easier to use. In this way, he could also familiarize himself with the method.
Then from the top of the cat grass near the emblem, he selected ten long hairs and cut them off, rinsed them with water, and then dried them.
After that, the cat grass that liked to create trouble was locked up in the balcony.
...
Everything was ready.
Dark started the experiment enthusiastically.
Professor Cazer did not assign related homework in this class, but this was just a buffer time for the students. Next Monday’s Magic Introduction would be based on experiments, and students needed to bring their own materials like hair, plant organs, etc.
Of course, if the students are self-motivated, Professor Cazer never minds lending them the keys to the laboratory.
Dark didn’t need that anymore, he now had his own small laboratory.
First concoct the potion, and then process the material.
Although "basic crafting method" carries the word "basic", it is actually much more difficult than the production method of [phantom magic beast].
The production of [phantom magic beast] only needs to follow the instructions step by step, except for the many steps, there is no difficulty.
However, the "Basic Crafting Method" involves more crafting magic circles, and they are relatively complicated. Some potions’ requirements and failure rate are also very high.
In the entire crafting process, as long as one step is wrong, it is very likely that Dark would have to do it all over again.
Fortunately, the materials used are basic materials.
The materials Dark bought over the weekend just happened to be usable.
He first followed the steps to make a small bottle of spirit honey juice.
Spirit honey juice is the basis for cultivating quasi-life forms and is widely used in the crafting of magical spirits.
Almost all basic crafting methods use this special potion.
In addition, Brain Lobe Essence Water is also a universal potion.
After that, Dark also formulated a bottle of brain lobe essence water.
...
The whole preparation process took half an hour, and basically he had enough material for two potions.
During the process of making the potions, Dark never felt irritated. He was always able to maintain a state of enthusiasm, so the potions he concocted also carried "spirituality".
Next, he took out a blank magic card, laid it out on the table, spread the spirit honey juice evenly, and then poured a drop of Brain Lobe Essence Water.
After it dried for a while, Dark applied a layer of dark green "plant essential oil" and sprinkled it with grass-based "attribute powder".
"Attribute powder" was a kind of conventional medicinal powder, divided into 20 attributes.
Its production process is very complicated, so people often buy the finished product.
Dark also bought a whole set of attribute powder.
After that, he needs to draw the No. 7 crafting magic circle to first combine the materials of this part with the blank magic card.
This is the first big step.
...
It took almost an hour in total.
On Dark's desk is a semi-finished magic card with a high degree of completion.
The card face of this magic card is greenish, which belongs to the [Plant type - Grass attribute].
"The last step."
Dark took a breath, picked up the magic energy pen, replaced the mercury refill with "chlorophyll solution", and began to draw the No. 1 crafting magic circle.
This time, it only took 14 seconds!
Then the crafting magic circle No. 1 was drawn!
At the moment the line was connected, the entire crafting magic circle burst out with a faint green light!
Dark carefully picked up a cat grass hair with tweezers and placed it on top of the crafting magic circle No. 1!
The hair was gradually engulfed by the green light.
But the light of crafting magic circle No. 1 didn’t get brighter.
He thought about it for a moment, and then continued to put in the second and third cat hair… Finally, all ten cat hairs were thrown in.
The light finally increased a bit, but it became very unstable.
Dark suddenly had an idea. He cut a small piece of his nail and put it in as well.
In an instant, the green light broke out!
All the materials were swallowed, and the entire magic card became a green cocoon.
...
"Is this done?"
With a hint of doubt, Dark took out a small silver knife with a width of about 0.5 cm, injected magic energy into it, and carefully cut open the entire green cocoon.
In the process of slitting, green light continuously shot out from the gap.
But when the whole cocoon was cut in half.
The cocoon suddenly turned into a green slimy liquid and collapsed!
"Did it fail?"
Looking at the magic card soaked in the slime, Dark used the tweezers to pick it out, and rinsed it under the tap.
After it was cleaned, he took it to the other side to take a closer look.
On the card, there was a puddle of green slime-like object.
"Green slime?"
Dark couldn't help thinking of some very common sewer creature.
[Card Name: Trash Slime]
[Type: Spirit card]
[Level: ✪]
[Race: Element type]
[Attribute: Grass]
[Magic energy: 100]
[Attack: 0]
[Defense: 0]
[Ultimate: Strengthened Gastric Acid]
[Strengthened Gastric Acid: Secrete gastric acid that digests any substances that it comes in touch with.]
...
"Hmmm, a trash slime?"
Dark’s hand shook, and he almost threw it away.
"So, is this a success or a failure?"
"Offensive and defensive are all 0? Then what’s the point of this card?"
After Dark read the data of [Trash Slime], he was not that disappointed.
Now that there is data, it means the crafting was successful this time.
As for whether it is useful or not, it depends on how he uses it in the future.
