The Space Ring was fully stocked with materials, so Lin Suo didn’t wait for Tominoos’s people to deliver them, instead giving instructions to the butler and the Chief Maid.
Then he entered the underground laboratory to begin his closure.
Before the Magic Ring was formed.
The matter of the Evil God Synthesis had to be dealt with first, namely wrapping up the Synthetic Beast project. Officially there were two hundred slots, but he certainly wasn’t foolish enough to only create two hundred.
Within the confines of the law, acting like a person would suffice.
And since a voyage was impending, he decided to prepare a batch of Synthetic Beasts capable of operating underwater in advance.
Lin Suo’s genetic manipulation urge wriggled eagerly, soon becoming fully immersed, forgetting the passage of time.
Several days later...
"Iron Bone Fish Spine, tendrils of the Ten-Armed Strong-legged Squid, and some Ebbing Tide Demon Algae, with the body of the Sahua fishman as the base... Hmm, the four-arm transformation must also be applied."
"The power of the Demon Spirit Shark too, cut a portion off, maybe there will be unexpected gains."
"Let’s inscribe some witchcraft as well..."
Iron Lung Skill, Vortex Water Blade, Frenzied Wave Surge.
Three Apprentice Level witchcrafts were already pushing this body to its peak.
With Lin Suo’s capacity for Life Transformation, integrating these assorted parts, the rejection reaction was never a problem.
Using witchcraft was the same.
But he had the Power of Synthesis, stitching it together messily, Lin Suo spread a shimmer of golden light with a wave of his hand.
The gold jelly-like substance reappeared.
After squirming eerily for a few moments inside, it soon settled down completely.
The golden jelly abruptly vibrated, dissipating into a stream of golden particles.
What appeared before Lin Suo was a creature with tentacles as lower limbs.
The upper body with four arms, encased in iron bone, with skin surfaced with dark green algae.
The most bizarre was the head, which had transformed from a regular fish head to a shark head, with pitch-black eyes, akin to his own expression when Absolute Rationality was activated.
The Synthetic Beast emitted a rich aura of Magic Power, surpassing a Peak Apprentice, yet not quite reaching a First Rank Wizard.
What Lin Suo found most astonishing was that it... seemed to possess the ability to act autonomously!
"Did it really damn resurrect?!"
Lin Suo couldn’t help but exclaim with national essence, suddenly remembering he had also merged the strength of the Demon Spirit Shark into it.
The reality of the operation being... to cut a chunk of subcutaneous tissue and forcibly stuff it in.
Demon Spirits loathe all living beings.
Feeding on negative emotions and curses.
Though lacking intelligence and autonomous will, that urge to slaughter, he had always been able to feel it.
After symbiotic synthesis, he gained two abilities: Absolute Rationality and Slaughter Instinct.
The former was dominated by him, while the latter awakened primal instincts that seek benefit and avoid harm, and killing all living things within sight.
The current Synthetic Beast clearly inherited half of Absolute Rationality.
Its soul was stable, and although Lin Suo couldn’t locate its soul, the entrance of the Demon Spirit Power seemed to have ignited another instinct.
As if the body of a comatose person came to life on its own.
With the final product ready, Lin Suo tried commanding it using his thoughts.
Everything about the Synthesis was under his control, like the authoritative might of a creator, very dominating.
But this time, it wasn’t about his controlling, but commanding!
This could significantly lessen the mental burden, only needing to issue a single command.
has been given this name for now, and its performance is just as Lin Suo had imagined—it completes its tasks well, whether by directing a point as the destination or releasing witchcraft commands.
However, it is quite stiff, possibly due to the problem with the Iron Bone Fish Spine, leading to be less adapted to land.
To create this thing.
Lin Suo has carried out synthesis over eighty times, almost reaching the Sharkman’s limit.
The dolphin’s sonar, the octopus’s mimicry, the demon algae’s effect of gathering Magic Power, the bat’s subsonic waves, various animal organs, and the Demon Beast organs Lin Suo could get his hands on.
Basically, all have been added.
The physical body firmly reached the level of his past Extreme Knight status.
Based on reasonable calculations.
In the remaining twelve opportunities for synthesis, this has the potential to reach First Rank strength, with both body and Magic Power equally powerful.
An object has a maximum of 100 synthesis opportunities.
If an object that has undergone ten syntheses is combined with an object that has undergone twenty syntheses, the result is considered thirty times synthesized.
Lin Suo is thoroughly familiar with these application rules.
But in the past, because he was wary of using corpses for synthesis due to its evil nature, and also because of insufficient strength, his body couldn’t withstand such a consumption.
Therefore, he rarely tinkered with monster corpses.
Now, with the birth of , he seems to have found a shortcut to powerful enhancements in advance.
After pondering, he couldn’t come up with a good idea, so he set it aside and focused on making Sharkmen. At Lin Suo’s peak condition, he could probably make about twenty Sharkmen before fully exhausting himself.
He needed to sleep for recovery.
Therefore, after leaving the missing materials with the Fox Human Butler, Lin Suo was busy for half a month.
He made nearly three hundred Sharkmen.
Extreme synthesis (up to 100 times) resulted in only five reaching Official Level, each consuming the materials of twelve complete Sharkmen.
Resulting in only a little over two hundred finished products now.
But it also brought Lin Suo a new guardian force.
Through the underground passages, he arranged for all these Sharkmen to be active near the coast of Silver Fish Port, allowed to hunt for food when hungry but prohibited from attacking humans.
This is much easier than raising Frog Machines.
A laissez-faire approach.
Over this half month, Lin Suo has fallen slightly behind on meditation, but not by much, and the remaining two and a half months should be more than enough.
, since it’s a handyman in the sea, maybe the castle here also needs some people to hold the fort?
Lin Suo considered it and felt it wasn’t necessary for the time being.
He is helping the young master Titan with his affairs, and unless Migaron is gone, there’s no reason for Rhein Castle to run into trouble.
"Let’s meditate first, wait for the Conscious Sea and Magic Power to stabilize, then make a batch of witchcraft bullets, and afterward, condense the second Witchcraft Magic Ring."
"This time, let’s go for the Magic Ring first, as it has a higher Skill Level and is less prone to failure."
Speaking of which, recently, when not networking, he’s been making various objects.
Rarely has he practiced witchcraft.
As a result, the increase in Skill Level hasn’t been high, but the proficiency of Magic Power Breathing Skill and Moon Pupil Meditation Method is still steadily climbing.
Having made over a thousand rounds of ammunition, Lin Suo has modified his Apprentice-level outing gear.
At this moment, whether it is strength, wealth, or knowledge, he has made substantial progress.
The gastric pouch space belt has been transformed into a waist belt.
He embedded five low-level space gemstones he had purchased at a high price, which, like the Purple Gemstone, are both beautiful and practical.
The space belt is divided into five spaces.
One is filled with countless Artificial Magic Stones, tens of thousands in number, enough for his cultivation needs after heading out to sea.
The second space contains high-quality synthetic food and Energy Water Drops, which could keep him sated for three years, without hunger or thirst.
