Ling Xi explained: "This is the problem. These materials are still missing the last step, enchantment!"

"Enchantment?"

Gu Ci opened his eyes wide, feeling like he was listening to a foreign language.

Ling Xi explained patiently: "Yes, it is enchantment. Although the silicon-based monsters have the instinct to absorb energy, they lack the ability to actively attack. Only through special enchantment and engraving of specific formations on them can their potential be stimulated and they can become real monsters."

Gu Ci was confused. He scratched his hair and pointed at the broken stone and asked, "You mean, this stone needs someone to carve a formation on it before it can turn into a magic beast?"

"In theory, yes." Ling Xi confirmed his statement.

Gu Ci felt that his worldview had completely collapsed. He had always thought that Warcraft should be the kind of creatures with fangs, flames all over the body, and that they should be very powerful at first glance. He didn't expect that it was actually this kind of inconspicuous stone!

"Then... then who will enchant them?" Gu Ci couldn't help but ask.

"Generally speaking, they are evil sorcerers or practitioners with ill intentions."

Ling Xi's voice was solemn. "They used the characteristics of the silicon-based monsters to make them into various dangerous weapons to attack the enemy, or..."

"Or what?" Gu Ci asked.

Ling Xi hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "Or... to control ordinary people."

"Can it also control ordinary people?" Gu Ci's heart was shocked, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet to his forehead.

"Yes." Ling Xi's voice became deeper. "Silicon-based monsters can grow by absorbing spiritual energy. Although ordinary people do not have spiritual energy in their bodies, they have life energy. If an enchanted silicon-based monster enters a human body, it will continue to absorb the host's life energy and eventually turn the host into a mummy."

Gu Ci felt a chill down his spine when he heard this. He subconsciously took a few steps back, away from the rubble, as if it were some scary monster.

"Then...if I want to use this less harmful magical beast, how should I proceed?"

"You...you want to enchant these things?!"

Lingxi's voice was full of disbelief, and the transparent light blue light all over her body flickered violently, as if she was frightened.

"Gu Ci, I really didn't realize that you have such big ambitions. Do you know that for an ordinary warrior like you, if you want to have the power to control enchantment... what price do you have to pay?"

"Price? What price? As long as it can make me stronger, I am willing to pay any price!" Gu Ci gritted his teeth, with a crazy light flashing in his eyes.

Now, the opportunity is before him. As long as he can master this power, he can change his own destiny, and even... change the whole world!

"Are you sure?" Ling Xi's voice was filled with worry. "You have to know that gaining power is never smooth sailing. You will face pain and torture that ordinary people can hardly imagine, and even..."

"You might even die, right?" Gu Ci laughed at himself, his face serious: "Then why don't we try to find a way to avoid death?"

Lingxi's light blue light flickered more violently, as if she was breathing heavily.

"Gu Ci, you're crazy! Do you know what enchantment requires? You need a strong mental force, you need to be proficient in various runes, you even need..."

"Stop!" Gu Ci interrupted her impatiently, "Just tell me if there is a solution or not, don't talk nonsense to me."

Ling Xi was silent for a moment, and the light dimmed. "There is a way... not that there is no way."

"Say!"

"There is an ancient forbidden technique that can forcibly extract the demonic nature and decompose it to reduce the concentration, and then seal it in silicon-based materials to create something called 'soul crystal'. You only need to integrate the soul crystal into the silicon base, and you can obtain the created silicon-based monster."

"It sounds simple!" Gu Ci's eyes lit up, "Then what are you waiting for? Tell me what to do!"

Ling Xi's voice was chilling, "Simple? Do you know the consequences of forcibly extracting the devilish nature but not being able to control it? At the very least, your soul will be shattered, at the worst..."

"What if it's serious?"

"In serious cases, you will become a mad monster and be sealed in darkness forever!"

Gu Ci was silent. He was not a fool, so he could naturally hear the warning in Ling Xi's words.

"Then...is there no other way?"

"Yes, there is..." Ling Xi hesitated, "but the risk is greater."

"tell me the story."

"There is a secret technique called 'Blood Contract' that can bind your soul to that of a monster, allowing you to share life and power. But this method is extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, the monster will bite you back and turn you into its puppet!"

Gu Ci took a deep breath. Neither of these two choices seemed very good.

One is to be torn to pieces, the other is to be turned into a monster. What choice should he make?

"Isn't there a...safer way?" Gu Ci asked cautiously, as if worried about angering Ling Xi.

Ling Xi looked at him like a fool, "Gu Ci, what do you think enchantment is? Are you playing house? Do you want to be safe? Why don't you just find a female monster to breed with and give birth to an obedient half-blooded monster!"

Gu Ci was stunned by her scolding, and then a trace of anger appeared on his face, "You..."

"What do you mean by 'you'? Anyway, I have told you the method. You have to figure out what to do next!" Ling Xi retorted without showing any weakness, with a light blue light flashing violently, as if she was going to rush out and punch him at any time.

One is shattered to pieces, the other is transformed into a monster!

After careful consideration, it seems that turning into a monster is less risky. At least you can still live!

Thinking of this, Gu Ci said slowly: "I choose the second method. Is there any room for optimization in this method?"

"Becoming a monster... is better than dying." Gu Ci took a deep breath, as if he had made a major decision. "Lingxi, tell me, what should I do?"

Lingxi's light blue light flickered, as if she was sighing.

"Have you really decided? This is no joke. Once you start, there's no turning back."

"Stop talking nonsense and speak quickly!" Gu Ci urged impatiently. His mind was now full of becoming stronger and then going back to take revenge. As for what he would become, he no longer cared.

"Okay," Ling Xi's voice lowered, "The blood contract requires the fusion of your blood with the monster's blood, and then..."

"And then? Don't hesitate!"

"Then," Ling Xi's voice suddenly became sharp, "you need to find the heart of the monster and inject your soul power into it! Remember, it must be the heart, and it must be a living monster!"
