The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　Her ball invitation is still hidden in her cardholder.

　……

　Why do I always feel like I've forgotten something?

　After eating and drinking his fill and listening to the story, Dark Dimon shook his head slightly and then continued making the "Magneto" golem.

　As a result, the first "Magneto" golem was successfully created before midnight—and then exploded when Dark ordered it to release electromagnetic waves to levitate!

Chapter 738 Requesting Votes for Dark's Railgun

　【Curse Cage】 is a type of magic card that can temporarily seal familiars, golems, and other pseudo-life forms within the card, and is used as a Magical Spirit Card.

　Generally speaking, it can give familiars offensive capabilities, but it does not amplify the abilities of golems that are already capable of fully utilizing their powers.

　Therefore, its existence is not very significant; more often than not, it simply serves as a portable device for carrying golems.

　However, with the decline of the alchemy profession, fewer and fewer people were able to create golems.

　However, everything has its own value; the key is whether someone can discover its shining points.

　It is said that among the most celebrated star duelists, there is one active duelist. Because he possesses a large number of high-level golems in his home, he is skilled at using the "Cursed Cage" to seal them away. This allows him to dominate in magical duels.

　Of course, that is just a derivative and extension of the most basic use of the "cursed cage".

　Throughout history, only one person has truly mastered the art of using the "cursed cage" in a unique and effective way.

　This person was now looking at the "Curse Cage" card in his hand with great delight.

　But on the card, a wooden cage hangs suspended, the word "curse" flashes, and a round-headed Magnemite floats quietly.

　This was the first time Dark had sealed a golem in a "cursed cage." Although he had conceived of this idea many times before, it was still only at the conceptual stage before it was actually tested.

　He looked at the stars on the card.

　Thanks to the high quality of the "Thunder Beast Eye," this "Magneto" has a higher star rating than both "Cursed Cage: Impiemon" and "Cursed Cage: Agumon," and is genuinely depicted with three stars.

　Its three dimensions are typically high in attack and low in defense.

　However, the attack value of a magical spirit generally refers to "the attack that can be achieved by using the most correct attack method". With its small arms and legs, you can't expect "Magnemite" to launch itself like a cannonball, can you?

　Therefore, its attacks are basically magical attacks.

　After a quick look, Dark immediately channeled his magic to obtain further information and feedback.

　Card Name: Magnemite

　[Type: Spirit Card]

　【grade:】

　[Race: Machine]

　[Attribute: Electric/Steel]

　【Magic Power: 1000】

　[Attack: 1200]

　[Defense: 600]

　[Ultimate Skill: Electric Discharge]

　To shorten the production time, Dark didn't incorporate overly complex elements when creating this "Magnemite." Therefore, it's understandable that the final "Magnemite" only has this one special attack.

　However, according to Dark's original plan, he thought that this "Magnemite" might be able to obtain the two special moves "Electromagnetic Wave" and "Electric Shock".

　Although it can now release electromagnetic waves to levitate in the air, it unfortunately has not been able to develop the "electromagnetic wave" ultimate attack.

　The initial speculation of "electric shock" has been upgraded to a more powerful "electric discharge"!

　The power of "discharge" is twice that of "electric shock," and it has also changed from a single-target attack to an area-of-effect attack, which is obviously a huge enhancement.

　"Okay... fine!"

　After pondering for a while, Dark infused more magic to examine the detailed description.

　[Discharge: Magnemite releases a dazzling electric current, attacking all targets around it, sometimes paralyzing them.]

　With its probabilistic paralysis effect and high-intensity wide-area attack, "Discharge" is indeed a great finishing move.

　The only problem is that it seems to lack directionality...

　This means that when Magnemite uses "Discharge", it will indiscriminately attack opponents around it, which is inconvenient in practical applications.

　But this "Magneto" is a golem, not a familiar.

　Familiars' attributes and special moves are difficult to change, but golems are different.

　Replacing armor, upgrading circuits, and adding weapons can all enable the golem to undergo further transformation.

　The Magnemite we have right now is just the "basic version".

　"First, awaken their intelligence!"

　Dark held up the magic card and summoned it under "Meow Meow's" unwavering gaze.

　"In the name of Dark Deemon, a magical summoning—'Magneto'!"

　A flash of lightning, and the "Magnemite," unchanged from before, materialized.

　Then he took the card holder that his sweet little cotton-padded jacket handed him with ribbon tentacles, and picked out the only card in it, the card of the great sin of "gluttony" - "Gluttony II"!

　"Gluttony" corresponds to Venus, and its main type is Steel, which perfectly matches "Magnemite".

　In fact, it seems that any kind of "Sin Card" can awaken the intelligence of the magical spirit. Dark himself does not have a deep understanding of this, but he can only vaguely feel that it is more appropriate to use the corresponding type of "Sin Card" to awaken its intelligence.

　Before we get to the other side of the story, under the radiant glow of "Gluttony II", divine light gradually gathered in the large, empty eyes of "Magnemite".

　The most fundamental difference between a "simulacrum-level" golem and a "similar-level" golem lies in their level of intelligence.

　The "Pseudo-class" golem has an intelligence level of 2.5, and its logic circuits are comparable to those of highly intelligent dogs, and even smarter than ordinary magical spirits.

　For alchemists, crossing this threshold called "wisdom" is actually extremely difficult.

　But Dac took a different approach... or you could say "opportunistic," and easily overcame it.

　When the brilliance of "Gluttony II" faded, this "Magnemite" had already made a three-level leap in intelligence, directly surpassing the Academy's patrol golems and reaching a level that neither golems nor magical spirits could match.

　"grumble--"

　The moment it gained sentience, it narrowed its eyes sharply, its two horseshoe-shaped magnets spun rapidly, and golden lightning flashed across its body.

　Suddenly, Dak remembered the electric torture a certain electric rat had inflicted on its owner, and he almost instinctively stepped back—he was no novice and couldn't withstand the electric shocks.

　"Gluttony II" caused Magnemite's appetite to surge. However, since it feeds on electricity, there was no power in the entire room, which only made it restless and wander aimlessly in the air.

　Fortunately, it didn't do anything else, which was reassuring.

　Dark looked down at the "Magic Card".

　"Sin II" grants "Cursed Cage: Impishon" a new special move, allows "Cursed Cage: Agumon" to evolve into a three-star subspecies, and grants "Ghost Beast: Eevee" a field move, but it doesn't actually have any special boosting effect on regular Pokémon.

　However, we'll only know the specifics after we see it.

　As he looked at it, a thought suddenly struck him: this "Cursed Cage: Magnemite" indeed had an extra special move.

　"analyze……"

　[Analysis: Magnemite possesses strong analytical abilities, capable of autonomously collecting and analyzing information. After a complete analysis of the target, it unleashes its ultimate attack, increasing damage by 0%-100%.]

　"A skill that increases the damage of ultimate attacks..."

　"Possesses strong analytical skills..."

　Dak raised his head, his smile gradually brightening.

　"Curse Cage: Magnemite" is just a three-star magical Pokémon with an attack power of 1200. Even with doubled damage, it's not that impressive.

　However, "having strong analytical skills" is completely different.

　This means that this two-star "Curse Cage: Magnemite" will be an excellent experimental assistant.

　"Who knows, he might be a little genius?"

　He thought of a Pokémon named "Thorum".

　Magnemite, with its "Analysis" special move, might be a viable alternative to Trom.

　Of course, the current "Magnemite" still needs "Gluttony II" to gain the "Analyze" special move. This special move, which cannot be maintained in normal conditions, is actually of limited significance.

　But this "magneton" is actually a golem!

　Since "Gluttony II" has already proven that it can gain "analysis" ability, then as long as "Magnemite" is adjusted and upgraded in terms of software, hardware and other aspects, it will eventually be able to gain "analysis" ability.

　"It's not a big problem."

　Dark was quite confident in his alchemical talent.

　He then sat back down at the table, began taking notes, and waited patiently.

　It wasn't until 15 minutes later that "Cursed Cage: Magnemite" recovered from the effects of "Gluttony" and stopped running around like a headless fly.

　Dark habitually checked his magic card again to confirm the changes in the values.

　Then, he suddenly realized that the "Analysis" section in the Ultimate Skill category was still there...

　"Um?!"

　A moment later, he realized with delight that this "analysis" must have been generated after the "Magnemite" became intelligent, and had nothing to do with "Gluttony II"!

　"Perfect!"

　Dark immediately summoned Magnemite to his side and, together with Meowth, conducted an intelligence test on it.

　He quickly became convinced that this "Magnemite" had extremely strong information receiving and analysis capabilities. Although it was not yet comparable to a computer, it already resembled a regular computer when performing addition and subtraction.

　As for why it's addition and subtraction instead of multiplication and division... well, that's because it hasn't been mastered yet.

　But to be able to master addition and subtraction within ten minutes of being born is clearly extremely terrifying.

　The future of this "magneton" is limitless!

　Dak held it in his palm, staring at it wide-eyed, but his mind was already racing with even more ideas.

　He didn't expect to create multiple "Magnemite" with sentience. After all, it had been proven before that only one of the same type of magical sprite could develop sentience.

　But what if this "Magnemite" could use electromagnetic waves to control other "Magnemites"?

　If multiple "Magnemite" are used to build a specific circuit, can its analysis and calculation capabilities be improved?

　Could this method be used to create a super-powerful AI, similar to a clone of Bilibili?

　After all, human strength is finite.

　Dark had some awareness of his own intelligence. He knew he was a little smarter than the average person...emmm...in short, not by much, and couldn't compare to those famous high-IQ geniuses in history.

　But what if he could build a "smart brain"?

　Thinking of this, Dark's gaze toward Magnemite grew even more intense.

　After a while, he placed the "Magneto" on the table, but his mind was already thinking about how to upgrade its hardware.

　He had actually come up with many ideas during the creation of this golem.

　There are two basic assumptions.

　One approach is to upgrade the "Magnemite's" basic hardware, giving it greater magic, attack, and defense.

　The second approach involves upgrading the internal circuitry of the "Magnemite" to give it a stronger discharge capability.

　The first type is actually easier to improve, but it requires higher quality materials.

　The second method is more difficult, but that's only after you've reached a certain bottleneck.

　Given Magnemite's current state, Dark still has the ability to upgrade it further.

　However, if we temporarily set aside the idea of ​​"golem upgrade" and switch to the idea of ​​"Pokémon upgrade", there is a very clear path.

　The next evolution of "Magnemite" is called "Magnemite".

　As the name suggests, it is a Pokémon born from the fusion of three Magnemite!

　Therefore, following this line of thought, we would need to create two more identical "Magnemite" to conduct the experiment.

　At the same time, this can also be used to verify the feasibility of the "Smart Brain Project".
