Chapter 446: 446: Advanced Spider (Repayment 02)
The Blood of the Ancient God, even though it was a lower-tier version, the divinity it contained was something that all powerhouse would covet.
Even the queen herself couldn’t resist plundering Li Yao. Not to mention these people.
The alchemist, who was polite to Li Yao and also proficient in engineering, released the crystal spider and then prepared to inject the Blood of the Ancient God after obtaining Li Yao’s consent.
The Blood of the Ancient God doesn’t require special storage. The blood seemed to sustain vitality automatically as if it was filled with a vibrant, ancient abyssal aura.
“Master, you need to add your blood into it. Only your blood can suppress the Ancient God on top of the contract. Otherwise, you’ll risk being possessed by the Ancient God.” The alchemist said.
“Alright.” Li Yao stretched out his hand.
The moment the alchemist pointed his hand, a small tentacle appeared, it directly pierced Li Yao’s arm to draw blood.
Suddenly, the Touch of Darkness spread over and engulfed the tentacle. The alchemist was taken aback and quickly withdrew the tentacle.
“The Queen’s Touch of Darkness.” The alchemist looked at Li Yao with different eyes. “Master, could you drip your blood on your own? My little toy is no match for The Touch of Darkness, I’ll lose my life otherwise.”
Li Yao nodded, dropped his own blood, let it mingle with the Blood of the Ancient God, and the alchemist began to inject the spider.
The spider was a light blue color, and as the blood was injected, Li Yao could clearly see the dark red blood starting to spread within the spider’s body.
The spider let out a sharp scream of extreme pain. If not tightly fixed, it would definitely be rolling all over the ground. Her body began to swell, and her beautiful appearance turned hideous and terrifying.
“Master, the Heart of the Ancient God.” The experienced alchemist slit open the crystal spider and held out his hand to Li Yao.
“This is?” Li Yao did not hesitate and took out the Heart of the Ancient God.
“We have underestimated it. The crystal spider’s quality is too low. It couldn’t even withstand the controlled and diluted Ancient God’s blood. To successfully evolve, it needs the Heart of the Ancient God to withstand the impact of the Ancient God’s blood. Of course, if you think it’s not worth it, you can let it die, and you can resurrect it.”
Li Yao looked at the crystal spider. Even though she was in pain, her eyes were full of desire for power. He spoke for her, “Use it.”
“Alright.” The alchemist sprinkled some powder on the Heart of the Ancient God. It seemed to turn illusory. With a wave of the alchemist’s hand, the Heart of the Ancient God, like a phantom, attached it to the spider’s heart.
Everyone was taken aback. They didn’t realize it could be inflicted this way.
“Spiders and Spider Devils were originally creations of the Ancient God. They have an innate connection with the blood of the Ancient God. Even if the bloodline mutates, the essence remains the same. Look, the Ancient God’s heart has automatically bonded itself to the spider’s heart.”
Following the alchemist’s words, the heart suddenly underwent a transformation. It then started to beat powerfully and rhythmically like a drum. The slit made by the alchemist also began to heal quickly.
The screams from the crystal spider became even more mournful, but her body also began to undergo a tremendous transformation.
Her body sprouted countless black bristles, like a gigantic hedgehog. But in the next moment, the bristles turned into tentacles that were extremely supple.
Her eyes turned into six, each was incredibly deep and wicked. Her limbs turned pitch black and gained a metallic texture. They became incredibly thick and stout.
Her mouth also transformed, being filled with sharp teeth, like a man-eating beast, extremely terrifying.
“We’re done. She’s being remodeled internally. Master, please check her level.” The alchemist said, laughing.
Only then did Li Yao come back to his senses. At the moment, the crystal spider has already become a junior boss, and her attributes were still increasing. Just as the alchemist said, she was still evolving.
“This is not a hair, but a type of connecting tissue. With the special potion mix we have prepared, if you add water element, she’ll turn into a Water Elemental Spider. If you add fire element, she’ll turn into a Fire Elemental Spider. If you add earth element, she’ll turn into a rock spider. If you add metal, she’ll turn into a mechanical lifeform with infinite potential. Of course, you can’t add anything too precious. After all, the Blood of the Ancient God and the Heart are both second-tier. It can’t transform into anything too powerful.” The alchemist explained.
“I see, I was thinking earlier, if I added an Original Substance Ingot, wouldn’t that be invincible.” Li Yao laughed.
“You wish. Only the Dragon King has such Original Substance Armor. Of course, if you can get a real Heart of the Ancient God, I’ll sell everything to get you some of those Original Substance Ingots.” The alchemist was also in a good mood.
“Well, I’ll save that until I become a god.” Li Yao also laughed loudly.
“Alright, Master, it’s high time you start crafting mechanical parts. We’ll assist. This way it will be the most congruent.” The alchemist said.
“Okay.” Li Yao didn’t waste any more time and began to craft the external components of the spider tank.
The crowds began to bustle around quickly. With these experts as his assistants, Li Yao’s speed greatly increased. It was very smooth, but because the structure had become complicated and the masters made some tweaks, the creation was precise and strong.
As time passed, more and more players reached level 20 and completed the trials.
Four days later, Li Yao and the crowd finally completed all parts. They were incredibly luxurious and fine, filled with runes, even though they were only components. Once assembled, they could form a Rune Array. This was the time-consuming part of the process. Runes were difficult to engrave. If a rune was not correct, the part had to be remade.
Feng Yi had already sent messages. Only a few guilds could enter the dungeons, but those inside the dungeons were not ready and their numbers weren’t full enough to start the raid.
The outside of dungeon had evolved into a total non-stop chaos.
There are no secrets in the guild. Those who started blocking the dungeon’s entrance were bonded guilds which held grudges against Starfire. They asked their elite members to quit the guild and formed a new guild to intercept Starfire’s members.
But they come from various races and administrative regions. The new guild was complicated and messy.
A team of casual players tried to enter the dungeon to play a five-man challenge but had disputes with one of the blockers. This led the entrance guards to kill them.
Playing games and getting killed are common occurrences. And since they reached level 20, dying no longer had severe consequences. Nothing would have came out of this, if not for the group of entrance guards being widely disliked. For some reason, thousands of people guarded the bodies of the five players for a full day. Even if they resurrected at the respawning point, they would still be killed.
After a day, their accumulated gear had all been looted…
