Author’s Corner: Hi guys. Thanks for reading. Enjoy the chapter. That is all.After taking a little bit of ti to recover, I went ahead and spent all of my stat points from my level-ups in the dungeon, and took a look at my new status. At the very least, I felt sowhat secure in my ability now.NaJohn HulettRaceWood ElfTitlesVengeful Heart, Amateur Brain Surgeon, Spider Slaughterer, Starship CaptainFa25,000Level 11013%ClassDruidAdvanced ClassXeno-ShifterDeityMalthanHealth940/940Health Regen0Mana3000/3000Mana Regen20.6Strength30Wisdom200Agility40Intelligence300Dexterity40Charisma35Vitality94Luck25Points Remaining0Earth 31%Fire 28%Wind 27%Water 28%Lightning 25%Light 25�rk 28%Plant 25%Void 25%tal 25%Magnetism 25%Plasma 25%Gravity 25%Ti 9%Now, my health had nearly doubled, and I could feel as if my body had beco lighter as well. Although I doubted that I would be able to keep up with the demon that wiped us out, it should be enough for normal enemies. With that taken care of, I could move on to other matters, naly giving Celeste’s new body a soul.“Hey, John.” Celeste called out to shortly after I went looking. When I found the wandering robot, her appearance looked much the sa as my parents had when I first found them on Gerin. Tall, sleek, and bland… channeling my buffer, which I now had in abundance, I poured so of my soul into her. Then, after infusing it throughout her body, she began changing into a Deus Ex.Apparently, she hadn’t been expecting the sudden procedure, and was caught a bit off-guard by it. However, soon her body began shifting. Unlike my parents, who gained completely new looks when they changed races, Celeste seed to have customized her new look to perfectly match what she had before. She even bought the sa flight and weapon upgrades. Well, she wasn’t able to get everything, since the experience I gave her wouldn’t bring her up that high.“Thanks, John.” She said with a small grin, now back in the sa appearance that she was in before. “I’ll need to spend a couple days to integrate all of my skills again, then I’ve got sothing to show you. If you need before then, you know where to find .” She tapped her own head with a smile, before turning and skipping off down the hall. Of course, now I was curious what it was she wanted to show …Anyways, while I was waiting for my new clone body to be prepared, I read over the reports that had piled up. While I was out, it seed that Celeste continued to have the crew challenge the dungeons. In the ti I was unconscious, the average level of the crew had risen by five, which was a pretty decent increase. One dungeon had even been fully mapped out, thanks to Nathan’s team successfully completing the goblin dungeon.From their report, the goblin dungeon had a much more gradual increase in difficulty than the demon one. On the other hand, the abilities inside did not vary as much. Though, they might not have been able to conquer the dungeon if there was not a rebellion on the final floor, where the minotaurs were attacking the dungeon boss.Next, and sothing I had been looking forward to hearing about, was Yang. Given that it’s been two weeks since we killed the boss monster near my lab, she has had plenty of ti to disassemble it and craft a full set of armor. Sharon even brought out a team of enchanters from her grove in order to add the finishing touches. Below is a full list of the armor set, provided by Sharon after she identified the finished pieces.Hooded Cape of the Frozen ScourgeThis cape was crafted from a low-level world boss, and retains so of the properties associated with that monster.

This was the set of armor that she submitted to complete her quest with her patron. And as her reward… She actually spent it on . Rather than getting herself sothing to increase her abilities, she exchanged the favor for an item that would more rapidly increase my cultivation speed. Perhaps she realized that I wouldn’t be able to accept the new armor set, so she wanted to give sothing special instead.Archdruid’s Elental RingBestowed by the Goddess of Evolved Beasts, this ring was prepared as a gift for soone precious. By equipping this ring, mana of all types that the user absorbs will be drawn into the ring, condensed, and then fed through the user’s body.Special effect: Removes passive cultivation capNeedless to say, I was surprised when I looked at the information that ca with the ring. Yin had given it to on Yang’s behalf, because the demi was still busy working on the rest of the materials from the Frozen Scourge. Aside from the main set, there were ten other identical sets of armor that had been crafted, as well as nearly a hundred spears planned. Additionally, there had been twenty-four swords made from its claws that had similar, albeit weaker effects.I could safely say that our security team would not be under-equipped for the foreseeable future. If anything, we had a lot of extra gear. Of course, I was wearing the ring that Yang had exchanged her favor for. Why wouldn’t I, when she went through all the effort to get it for ?I decided to let her continue her work without interruption for now, and thank her when she was done. Out of all the items I had received, this one is very likely the most helpful to . With it, wouldn’t it be possible to cultivate all the way to 100% affinity if I just waited long enough? After taking care of the reports, I went down to the lab again, and got ready for my mad scientist experints. We had a lot more information about monster spawns now, so I should finally be able to start making my ti monster. But first, I needed to make so things to help.I expanded the basent of my lab so that I would have all of the room I needed to work, and could take care of any monsters that seed to want to run wild before too much damage was caused. Next, I set up eight spell formation circles. Each one would be set to gather a specific amount of elental mana, in order for to accurately asure my results. The types of mana drawn in to these circles were the seven primary elents, as well as ti mana. I wanted to try to keep any other type of mana out of the equation for now.Next, a larger spell formation that fully encompassed the other eight, with spiral patterns to draw the mana gathered to a single point. This would be what I ultimately use to create the monster, after I have the mana ready. Although I could do the work myself, this way should be more accurate.In order to test it, I set the configuration in the circles to draw in the amount of mana needed to summon an ettin. Since I had plenty of experience doing this, it should prove as an accurate example.Once all of the settings were complete, I activated the smaller spell formations to begin drawing in the mana. Then, once the runes around the edges began glowing brightly, I used a much larger amount of my own mana to activate the bigger formation. Sure enough, the energy contained within the various circles slowly worked its way through the diagram and joined together in the center. I felt the familiar pull of mana in the area, as a monster began forming. Perhaps because of the way the formation was set up, the monster spawning process was not interfered with by the anti-spawn barrier. I’d have to look into why that was the case later, as it showed a weakness with the thod. However, soon a large figure erged within the center of the spell formation. As expected, it was the familiar two-headed form of an ettin.A small smile ford on my lips as I sent a wind blade out to behead the creature. With this, I could begin my work to create a custom monster. Hopefully…. We’ll see. Either way, at least things will get interesting from here! Worst case scenario, I make sothing that eats . It can’t get much worse than that, right?
