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

　A crimson light emanated from its body, suggesting that even the slightest attack could injure it.

　The attack power increased to 2800, and then stopped completely.

　As for the 500 attribute bonus from the Holy Ring, it was indeed not taken into account!

　"If we use the power of the bonded mind as an aid, is it possible to mitigate the negative effects and grant it a certain degree of rational behavior?"

　Dak couldn't help but ponder.

　"Furthermore, it's uncertain whether Crazy Lion Beast has any experience in fighting madness; it will most likely become even more insane and completely lose its rationality."

　If the Holy Sword's Sword Dance or Double Slash is activated at this time, its power will be unimaginable!

　Unfortunately, it's actually quite difficult to trigger Sword Dance or Double Slash while in the maniacal laughter state.

　However, "difficult" means that the possibility is not zero!

　Dark had no choice but to hug Gatomon and continue waiting.

　The experimental results have been released.

　The Joker of Laughter's attack and defense speeds are all at a high speed of 100 per second.

　Dark shook his head, tapped the magic card on the Laughing Mask, and tried to forcibly retrieve it.

　But he failed!

　"It cannot be taken back within three minutes."

　Laughing Ghost Mask: Forcibly places the laughing mask on the opponent's face, causing them to laugh uncontrollably, as if possessed by a ghost! Their defenses will gradually crumble during the laughter. Duration: Three minutes. Normally, it cannot be dispelled on its own.

　Even a fourth-tier magical spirit with 6000 points of defense can complete the transformation within a minute.

　Dark took advantage of this gap to examine another ultimate move.

　However, since the Laughing Ghost Mask only reduces defense and does not increase attack, its effect of reducing defense is definitely not as good as the Laughing Clown.

　"It's likely been reduced somewhat. But the original defense reduction effect was a pleasant surprise!"

　"My original plan was to use it as a single-target control that would prevent the opponent from doing anything except laugh."

　"As expected, it's a finishing move that can be forcibly placed on the opponent's face!"

　"But where can we find test subjects at this point?"

　Dark shook his head slightly, realizing that he would have to test again tomorrow.

　Gatomon tilted its head slightly, a hint of pleasure appearing on its lips from the lingering effects of its special attack.

　The effect of the Laughing Mask is quite surprising.

　"The results so far are already exceptionally satisfactory!"

　Dark waited patiently for three minutes before the Laughing Clown's effect finally ended.

　He immediately put it back into his magic card, then patted Gatomon's head and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

　Dak awoke to the call of his biological clock.

　He then used his access card to send a message to Professor Cazell.

　He didn't receive a reply until 11 a.m.

　However, it was already late. After cleaning up the experimental residue, Dak continued to practice the Netherworld Art and fell into a deep sleep after half an hour.

　Sunday morning at 6:00 AM.

　Although he was curious, he didn't ask any questions.

　One p.m.

　As agreed with Professor Kazel, Dak arrived at Professor Kazel's dormitory.

　Professor Kazel has returned from the dungeon!

　Dark had no idea what he was researching.

　The other professors also avoided the topic.

　He was wearing dark blue pajamas and a nightcap with not a single star on them, and he was still steaming, clearly having just showered and changed.

　"Come in, I've made some black tea."

　Upon seeing Dark, Professor Cazell smiled genuinely and led him into the room.

　"Dong dong."

　"Click."

　As soon as Dak knocked twice, Professor Kazel's dormitory door opened from the inside.

　One stick is worth 1000 credits, ten sticks are worth 10000 credits.

　Although the price is high, resources cannot be spared if you want to master the foundation of secondary alchemy.

　"Hmm, is ten enough?" Professor Kazel asked curiously. "Are you going to teach yourself secondary transmutation? The failure rate for secondary transmutation is quite high, especially for beginners."

　"The fur of a magical beast, right? How many strands do you want?"

　He pushed the steaming teacup in front of Dak and said kindly.

　Dark thought for a moment, then held up one finger and asked, "Would ten be okay?"

　Professor Cazell asked doubtfully, "Of course, that's how I've always bought them."

　Dark opened his mouth and said, "But I didn't last time, but aren't the fur of magical beasts extremely rare?"

　Professor Cazell chuckled, "Of course they're rare. But isn't being rare the same as being available?"

　Dak couldn't help but show a hint of embarrassment at his lack of money, and said, "I'll just take ten for now. If I use them all up, I'll come back and buy more."

　Professor Cazell shook his head and said, "One hundred sticks, ten thousand credits isn't much for you, is it?"

　Dark quickly replied, "One hundred sticks? Hey? Only ten thousand credits?"

　Dark: "Oh, right."

Chapter 650 [Seeking Subscriptions] Darkdemon's Mad Transformation (9k)

　Dark emerged from Professor Cazell's dormitory, a blank expression tinged with smug satisfaction.

　A full hundred hairs from a magical beast—if sold to the public, that would be a tenfold profit!

　Of course, he wouldn't do that.

　One should never forget one's bottom line for the sake of petty gains.

　However, he never expected that he could buy a hundred magical beast hairs, so he only prepared about ten sets of materials.

　The fur of magical beasts actually has many uses.

　Besides being used to craft magical beasts, it can also be used to craft ultimate skills: transformation!

　However, research on ultimate skill cards has actually stagnated considerably, and it's not appropriate to bring them up again now.

　Every time he buys so many materials, he can't help but exclaim how wonderful it is to have a Halloween event!

　It's three o'clock in the afternoon.

　"Let's wait until later."

　:rg

　With that in mind, Dak went to Traveler's Street again and brought back materials worth tens of thousands of credits!

　"But before we can perform the second forging, we need magic cards to forge—let's forge a magical beast first!"

　“The targeted refining of magical beasts is not difficult in itself, involving relatively many refining steps. If multiple batches are refined at the same time, the time can be compressed as much as possible.”

　With everything prepared, Dak began the initial experiments.

　"These one hundred magical beast hairs should be enough for me to master the basic methods of secondary alchemy."

　He has completed the creation of magical beasts twice so far.

　The first attempt resulted in a magical Pokémon: Eevee, and the second attempt resulted in a magical Pokémon: Ditto.

　"But let's warm up first with the first one."

　After a moment's thought, Dak began the experiment.

　Therefore, the targeted creation of magical beasts still involves many uncertainties and is very special.

　"I wonder what kind of magical beast will be created this time?"

　These two magical spirits are extremely compatible with the characteristics of "magical beasts," so it wouldn't be surprising if they were to be trained into either one.

　Of course, since they are all magical beasts, they are indeed created through targeted crafting, rather than random crafting.

　From the production base to the inscription of the first transmutation array, this transmutation process was forcibly compressed to within ten minutes, and the final product was satisfactory.

　During the refining process, Dak carefully processed the magical beast's fur and then added a crucial ingredient—the demon god's saliva!

　"In short, it would be best to use either Eevee or Ditto, as this would make it easier to learn and master the secondary synthesis."

　After focusing his mind, Dak quickly got to work.

　But he later discovered that the saliva he added had a much greater effect than that.

　The reason he rarely failed in the forging of magical spirit cards was closely related to the effect of this saliva.

　Human saliva contains a variety of substances. When there is too much of the core material, adding a little saliva can catalyze the refining process.

　Dark initially added saliva to his alchemy experiments because of Professor Cazell's guidance.

　If there are readily available tricks, there's no reason not to use them.

　The first alchemy was finally completed, and the golden threads that separated from the first alchemy array wrapped around the magic card layer by layer.

　In addition to the initial addition, adding a little "demon god material" can also relatively improve the quality of the Magic Spirit Card.

　In short, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

　Then the magical beast will respond to the mage's expectations and appear as the mage desires—that's what the tutorial says!

　But in practice, things will naturally differ.

　Eventually, a golden cocoon was formed.

　Next, all that remains is to inject magic into the cocoon of light, and at the same time, infuse it with one's own hopes.

　As a slight pulsation appeared inside the cocoon of light, Dark released his grip and saw that the outer shell of the golden cocoon had cracked open, just like a chick hatching from its shell.

　The golden light shooting out from the crack spread out to both sides, completely engulfing the entire golden cocoon.

　Otherwise, Ditto would never have been created.

　During the second alchemy process, Dark should have created the second magical beast: Eevee.

　Then he couldn't help but frown.

　The image on the card isn't a cute little Eevee, nor is it a limp Ditto, but rather an unknown little sheep!

　When the light fades, only the final product remains on the table.

　The surface of this magic card is quite clean, with few impurities. Therefore, the design on the card is clearly visible at first glance.

　Although the fantasy sheep on the card is much cuter than the actual Yu-Gi-Oh! cards, its basic design is still very distinctive.

　Dak believed he would not admit his mistake.

　The little sheep, sitting like a mouse on the card, has its back facing outwards. Its wool is fluffy and curly, but it is jet black. A hypnotic ring hangs from its long, pointed mouse tail.

　This is the magical spirit from Yu-Gi-Oh! - Fantasy Sheep!

　Fantasy Sheep is a three-star Magical card in Yu-Gi-Oh!. However, its attack and defense stats are very average, and it has a similar effect to the infamous Swamp Demon King, making it a viable alternative as a Fusion Material.

　However, unlike the Swamp Demon King, it cannot add a Fusion card from the deck to the hand by sending itself to the graveyard.

　"If it really is a fantasy sheep, then it's not bad."

　His brow gradually relaxed, and he picked up the magic card to examine it closely.

　Card Name: Magical Beast (Fantasy Sheep)
