Chapter 513: The Ultimate Magical Beast Trans.m.u.tation 4
“Yo! Cervian, it has been so long!”
After a long time, Ian visited section 107 of the Devildom and greeted Cervian.
And Cervian who saw Ian couldn’t help but smile broadly.
“Oh oh, Ian, it has been so long. Why have you come so late?”
“Ah, I had a lot of things that had to be taken care of.”
“If the busy work is done, come see me more often. I’m so bored these days. I was getting thirsty waiting for you to come.”
Cervian was being exaggerated after seeing Ian.
After seeing that, Ian couldn’t help but chuckle.
“For what did you wait like that?”
“Isn’t it natural for a teacher to want to see his student?”
“Maybe it wasn’t because you were longing for me, but you wanted to solve the question that I threw at you the last time?”
“Haha. There is no reason why it won’t be.”
After having a very pleasant conversation with each other, Ian and Cervian moved into the lab.
And not being able to calm himself anymore, Cervian asked Ian,
“Fine, talk now.”
“About what?”
“Giant Behemoth.”
“Huhu, my teacher surely would have been curious about that.”
“No way, did you really… do the trans.m.u.tation?”
“Yes?”
“You put two of the Behemoths and made such a useless magical beast.”
Ian nodded while looking at Cervian who was shooting bullets out of his mouth.
“Obviously. If I wasn’t going to make it, why would I take the recipe?”
“…!”
“And in order for it to not fail, I put in the advanced stones too.”
Cervian, who listened to Ian, couldn’t help but slump down into the couch in the lab.
“Crazy… you really must be a crazy guy…”
The Behemoth was a legendary cla.s.s magical beast which held the t.i.tle ‘The first magical beast’.
That in itself meant that it was a superlative magical beast with tremendous combat power, and that creature was a top-cla.s.s for the magical beast trans.m.u.tation.
And there was no way for it to be saved now.
To sum it up, the Behemoth was a beast that couldn’t even be bought with gold.
‘And made a garbage by using the two of those things.’
The giant behemoth, on the other hand, had high stats, but it was a useless summon.
Rather, it could be different if it had special abilities like Ian’s Thor.
The unique ability that takes advantage of the enormous heat stats.
However, the giant behemoth’s unique ability was even worse than a normal behemoth.
In other words, a friend with no rebirth.
Seeing Cervian look that desperate, Ian opened his mouth to speak,
“Cervian.”
“What is it?”
“You are curious, right?”
“About what?”
“Why I made such a crazy thing?”
“Just tell me…”
Ian opened his mouth again to speak since Cervian was looking lost,
“You’ll be really surprised to hear this.”
“…?”
“I found some revolutionary things about the magical beast trans.m.u.tation.”
Ian scratched the curiosity of Cervian.
And eventually, Cervian couldn’t hold himself anymore.
“What the h.e.l.l? Don’t keep making me curious; just tell me now!”
This was exactly what Ian had wanted.
That was because only by maximizing Cervian’s interest would Ian be able to get what he wanted.
Ian’s words continued,
“I’ll tell you, Cervian.”
“Fast!”
“However, there is a condition.”
“…!”
“The Magical Beast Encyclopaedia that Cervian has. I’ll do it for that.”
“Tha… that…!”
Excited, Cervian turned shocked after what Ian said.
Ian asked for the Magical Beast Encyclopedia which was one of Cervian’s favorite things.
Ian glanced at Cervian.
‘Was asking for the encyclopedia a bit too much?’
When Cervian didn’t answer, Ian decided to give up.
“If that is a little hard, please make a copy.”
“Co… py?”
“Yeah. If I go to the nearest village and ask for a copy, they will make a copy in 10 minutes.”
“Hmm…”
“If you are bothered by that, I’ll take it with me and copy it.”
Cervian closed his eyes and was in deep thought.
He felt like he was falling for the words of Ian.
‘But I am very curious as to why he made that Giant Behemoth…’
Cervian, who had been thinking for a while, decided to pick up the white flag.
“Okay then. I’ll accept the offer.”
Ian’s face went bright after hearing that.
“Yeah! That’s my teacher! A wise man indeed!”
It would have been different if it wasn’t Cervian and some other teacher.
“However, it won’t be fun if what you have to say isn’t interesting.”
“Huhu, you don’t have to worry about that.”
After receiving the magical beast encyclopedia, Ian immediately began to recall what he had found.
In fact, Ian too wanted to share his findings with Cervian as soon as possible.
No one could even understand the value of Ian’s words except for Cervian.
And Cervian too began to get excited than Ian’s expectations.
“Oh ho, is that so?”
“So, my plan is this…”
“Oh oh, if what you’re saying is really that, then you would’ve made a very crazy beast!”
“Huhu, right?”
“Keu, Ian, you really are amazing!”
* * *
The reason why Ian had asked for the Magical Beast Encyclopedia from Cervian was simple.
‘Because we need to find the magical beasts with great stat ratio.’
Ian was on a huge mountain because he successfully created a giant behemoth—a base for cultivating the strongest magical beasts.
Now that the base for the trans.m.u.tation was set, the second thing Ian had to find was the magical beast that would be the main material.
Ian was planning to put one with a tremendous stat amount.
‘I need to figure out which magical beast has the best stat ratio, regardless of the rank.’
As mentioned earlier, the main beast of the trans.m.u.tation had to be a ‘legendary’ rank.
Which meant that he had to find a legendary rank for it.
Because of that, Ian had to find the materials with the ‘legendary’ grade.
However, Ian, who fully understood the formula of the magical beast trans.m.u.tation, was confident in making magical beats while using any ranked beast.
If the low ranked magical beast looked to have a good stat, he would evolve it step by step into a legendary rank and then use it as a material.
‘If it is possible, I want to have a higher ranked one.’
Ian immersed himself in the couch that was in the lab of Cervian and began to read through the encyclopedia all the way from the beginning.
Ian wasn’t interested in books, but for making the strongest magical beast, he wanted to read as much as he could.
“Hmm, this guy seems fine, but a little off….”
Ian mumbled to himself and turned the pages of the book one after the other.
Quite a lot of beasts were pa.s.sing, but he didn’t feel like looking into them.
In fact, the stat ratio which had to be completed may be the most important task for the beast formation.
Two hours had easily pa.s.sed.
“This is it!”
Ian, who was still reading on the couch, jumped out of his seat and clenched his fist.
* * *
Ian pursued a very clear battle style.
Rather than casually pressing it, it meant that he preferred efficient battles that could provide maximum effect with minimum damage.
Ian was looking for two styles.
First, a beast that was mainly composed of stats on the attack power and agility.
Second, a magical beast composed of stats mainly of agility and intellect.
‘To get the best efficiency out of the battle, agility is needed… If the other stats are struggling, other than the attack or intellect, it will be good.’
Damage stats literally meant the damage of the summon.
But to be a bit more precise, it would be the ‘physical’ attack power.
On the other hand, the ‘intellect’ stat has two effects on the combat abilities of a summon.
First literally meant the intellect of the summon.
That was the effect of the summon’s AI.
Second was the ‘magic attack’ of the summon.
Because of that, Ian had been wanting a stat configuration with intellect and attack.
And the most efficient choice was to make both the physical and magical damage high.
‘Is there no magical beast with intellect or attack that could not go to zero?’
The sum of the stat that would be determined by the magical beast’s total stats of the base beast.
And if one low efficient stat converged to zero, the abilities would get s.h.i.+fted to another stat.
After several hours of searching the encyclopedia, Ian had found the guy.
-Devil Fairy
Level: 4~7
Cla.s.sification: Humanoid
Rank: Lesser monster
Personality: ???
No evolution
Attack: 0-6
Defense: 14-27
Agility: 34-49
Intellect: 37-52
Vitality: 590-770
A cute devil elf that lives at the start of the ‘Blue Devildom Forest’.
And unlike its cute looks, they like to fight.
They use strong energy b.a.l.l.s.
‘Huhu, this is good. No matter how much I look into this, I can’t find anything better than this.’
The only downside of it was its rank was too low, but it could be changed.
Until the desired rank was achieved, the beast could be trans.m.u.ted a hundred or a thousand times until the desired scale was achieved.
‘I need to go to the Blue Devildom Forest right away. If I can catch at least a thousand of those, I can get the one I want…’
The most ideal stats Ian wanted were,
Attack: 0
Defense: 14
Agility: 49
Intellect: 52
Vitality: 590
“Huh, if that will get into the Giant Behemoth, I’ll be like having a myth summon who is much more intellectual than Kaka and more agile than Ly.”
Excited, Ian ran out of Cervian’s lab.
His destination was the ‘beginner’s hunting ground’ in the ‘Blue Devil Forest’ for the Devildom users.
