Chapter 490: Chapter 8: How to Remove the Sighing Set
Testing with Curse Plutonium Dragon wasn’t a random idea he had on the spur of the moment.
In theory, the slimes, which inherited some of the Giant Dragon’s reproductive cell traits, should have no problem reproducing in the body of a real giant dragon.
However, due to the significant disparity in rank, Anvis was unsure whether these creatures could actually obtain the life information of the Curse Plutonium Dragon.
Upon entering the high-risk experimental area of the laboratory and after the heavy alloy gates had closed, Anvis activated the laboratory’s comprehensive defensive array and then released three Curse Plutonium Dragons.
As they gradually grew larger, after Anvis had obtained Emperor Fidels’s treasure, they were released from the ring and kept in a special area of the half-plane where the treasury was located.
There, through Anvis’s special modifications, the environment was filled with a dense Curse Field, and he regularly introduced various types of Curse Metal Ore to feed them.
After two years of feeding, the strength of the three Curse Plutonium Dragons had firmly surpassed the Seventh Rank, with the first female dragon that hatched approaching the peak of the Seventh Rank, its real combat power nearly reaching the Eighth Rank.
Currently, their body lengths had all surpassed twenty meters, now between that of an adolescent dragon and an adult dragon.
“Roar—”
Accompanied by a thunderous dragon roar, three enormous pitch-black giant dragons covered the empty space in the center of the laboratory.
Their beautifully streamlined bodies, resembling metallic scales shimmering with deadly blue glow, and their dark gold vertical pupils scanning the suddenly foreign surroundings.
Then, they spread their wings as if declaring the sovereignty of their territory.
As soon as the dragon shadows appeared, a red light lit up on one side of the laboratory, indicating a high-intensity Curse Field reaction at the test site.
At the same time, Anvis also felt a slight itchy sensation on his skin as if an invisible and slightly warm current had suddenly filled the room.
However, in the next instant, the powerful constitution of an Eighth Rank Professional automatically adjusted to the intensity of the Curse Field.
Anvis whimsically wondered, if these Curse Plutonium Dragons could live for a million years and passed their half-life, would they turn into lead dragons?
Looking at his lively pets, a strange thought suddenly crossed Anvis’s mind.
Then, he shook his head, not dwelling on these unnecessary thoughts, and mentally issued a command.
“Come, my dear little dragons, it’s time for a body check. Lie down here and raise your tails.”
“Gah roar—”
Feeling Anvis’s will, the three dragons obediently lay down and raised their tails high.
After a series of Secret Technique influences, Anvis’s commands had become imperative tasks in their will.
However, as soon as Anvis took out the first Giant Dragon Slime, even before getting close, it dissolved into a pool of mucus under the terrifying Curse Field.
Realizing the problem, Anvis readjusted the gel structure of these slimes and implanted the ability to absorb the Curse Field, allowing them to reproduce normally in an environment with a strong Curse Field.
But, the second slime, upon which Anvis had high hopes, also failed. While it could absorb the Curse Field, the immense disparity in raw power caused it to burst under the infinite absorption of the Curse Power.
“The disparity in strength is still too great, directly reproducing them seems to have a very low chance of success…”
Seeing this outcome, Anvis felt somewhat helpless.
Unlike other species, Giant Dragon Slimes as magically adjusted creatures with this special reproductive ability paid the price of being less stable and perfect in structure compared to naturally evolved species.
And this also meant that their strength was almost entirely fixed, with absolutely no room for enhancement.
In that case, there was no need to try the primitive method of propagation again.
Having changed his way of thinking, Anvis listed several questions.
Why must they reproduce inside the mother’s body to give birth to new breeds of slimes with maternal characteristics? Why can’t they acquire the life information of male creatures?
Based on knowledge from his past life, the biggest difference between females and males should lie in their reproductive cells.
So, if these cells were extracted individually and cultivated in a nutrition tank together with the giant dragon slime, would it have the same effect?
With this idea in mind, Anvis used specialized magic to extract some cellular tissue samples from two female dragons and merged them into two other slimes, placing them in the culture tanks.
Moreover, to increase the success rate, both culture tanks were filled with special nutrient fluid rich in a curse field to optimally simulate the internal environment of a Curse Plutonium Dragon.
“Task established, estimated completion time, six days and thirteen Magic Time.”
The gentle synthetic voice of Tower Spirit Pomiya rang out, indicating that the cultivation time would take about a week.
Observing the slimes slowly wriggling in the cursed liquid, Anvis temporarily left them there, took his three dragons, and left the laboratory, ready to add some heat to the Secret Ceremony Society.
.….….
Several days later, a brand new summoning creature of the Empire Secret Rite Society became quietly popular on the forums of Mysterious Era.
When Anvis added the first batch of five hundred female slimes to the exchange list, many players were amazed upon discovering them.
Female slimes, Blue Quality, available in five different types corresponding to humans and several major sub-human races, exchangeable only by official members, priced at fifty thousand camp contribution points.
The key is, unlike other humanoid races, they are not wearing the Sighing Set!
With this news, the Secret Ceremony Society once again became popular among players. Many players came out of curiosity to see what the legendary female slimes looked like.
“Hey, did you notice, Dragon Descendant, the Secret Ceremony Society has another new exchangeable summon available!”
Walking on the broad streets of Gloria Capital, the Last Dragon Descendant casually chatted with his former teammates. However, a careful observer would notice that they were actually focusing on a nearby vendor.
That was their task target, seemingly ordinary, but their Investigation Skill showed the vendor’s level as ‘?’
“I’ve seen it, the Second Rank young female slimes, require fifty thousand points of camp contribution.”
Glancing at the conspicuous ‘NEW’ on the exchange list, unlike the eager Minstrel with the Sharp Sword, the Last Dragon Descendant showed little interest.
“Fifty thousand points of contribution, enough for me to exchange for a Fifth Rank exceptional Magic Wand, I don’t see how this thing could be worth that price.”
“But it’s not wearing the Sighing Set.”
Dwarf Gold Silver Copper Aluminum muttered quietly, voicing the thoughts of many male players present.
This was the precise result of Anvis’s careful adjustment; as a former player, he had some understanding of how to avoid the system’s censorship.
For instance, a portrait of a naturally posed beautiful woman in the eyes of the natives is actually seen by players as wearing the Sighing Set.
However, if key parts are painted over, the Sighing Set disappears.
Thus, using this principle, Anvis slightly adjusted the appearance of the female slimes being sold externally to pass the review.
“So, unable to find a girlfriend, using slimes that look like girls for self-consolation? Pfft— isn’t that a bit too pitiful?”
On the side, the feisty cat Tiramisu jeered.
