[Calculating… Please wait while we make adjustnts.]
Another screen then popped up, allowing Ben to modify the color and appearance. He could change the proportions if he wanted, like making one hand bulkier than the other. But Ben only changed the color to jet black.
[Processing… Making final adjustnts and calculating the final cost…
… … …]
"The hell, why is it taking so long!" Ben complained, saying that the interface had been intuitive and fast so far. It seed the system also had sothing it was bad at, like, for example, math.
"What's taking so long?"
Ben frowned, then only now realized Elvira was sitting in front of him. Patiently waiting for him to finish.
"Creature creation system. I can make my own species under ."
Elvira's eyes lit up, "For real? Tell in detail."
With Hive Mind and this ability, they could make their own army. Ben didn't hide the information. Even though it was forced, both of them were now in the sa boat.
The more she heard, the more excited Elvira beca. "Forget that power armor! My beloved, we should just hunt down creatures and raise our own army!!! As long as we have enough ti, we will be invincible with this ability!"
"! Not we! And who knows what kind of limitations it has. I doubt it's that easy to gain new body parts."
[Ding! Calculation completed, sorry for the long wait. Many adjustnts need to be made.
Final cost: creature complexity 11, mana cost 367.5 rounded up to 400.
Biomass costs 275.6, rounded up to 300.
System is not good at math, so please don't bla the system for the rounded-up numbers.]
[Please give your creature a new na…
*At the mont, host can only save three creatures, and each design cannot be removed.]
"My Beloved~ don't be like that; what is mine is yours, and so does the reverse. Both of us are one now." Elvira moved closer, tightly hugging Ben.
But he ignored her right now; the system ssage made him feel annoyed. 'What the hell is this roundup! This is a scam!'
'The difference is a few dozen points, but this ans that for every ten or so creatures, he will lose one. Does this system hear what I think!?'
[Ding! System cannot hear your thoughts.]
'Just think of it as paying tax, sir Ben.' Ben's lips twitched, but he was sure the last one was a voice.
'Taxes? Dammit, everywhere is taxes, even a system asks to pay tax!' He wanted to continue cursing despite his personality change.
Tax was sothing that triggered his deep grievance. He still rembered how, in his last world, everything was taxed.
His inco barely paid the bills and was still taxed; eating was taxed, buying items taxed, cigarettes taxed, and even his dical bills had a tax on them.
But now, what mattered was the voice. 'System, you can speak!?'
Unfortunately, no matter how many tis he tried, the system didn't say any more words.
"What is wrong?" Ben looked at Elvira, confused.
"How could you tell I am annoyed?"
"We are bound in soul, of course I could tell." Hearing her flirty tone, Ben thought she wasn't serious.
This was probably related to so of her abilities as Aetheris race, her unique skill. "Nothing much; rather than that, I finished creating my creature. I just need to na it now. Do you have any idea?"
Ben had thought of so nas, but so far, each one would make the copyright gods angry. Like for example, one that starts with Z…
"Can you tell what kind of creature you made?"
Ben used his crafting ability to create a figure out of rock. He made almost a hundred of them, making Elvira's eyes widen.
"Why so many?" She asked while studying the figure carefully.
Ben himself was surprised with the result. It was very detailed, even better than his imagination.
"Creating one or two still consud one stone block; might as well make a lot."
"You know, with this, we can do a statue-selling business; I am sure we could get rich easily, hehe…"
"Stop joking, so do you have a good na?"
"Hey, I am not joking. In this area, we may just need violence, But above, near the surface, we need more than strength."
"I am sure you understand."
"That is for later. Just focus on now." Ben replied with a huff; he disliked politics.
In his opinion, it was filled with double-faced people, liars, and scamrs.
"Yes… yes… My beloved… how about we na this one Bloodling."
"Bloodling?? Why?"
"There is a creature with a similar appearance in the future. The only difference is its body is all crimson, but the rest is similar."
"Hmm… Let's na it Blackling, then." Elvira looked wide-eyed at Ben. She was at a loss for words.
"So, you weren't lying. You are really bad at giving nas." Ben's lips twitched.
"Then give another one. Do you think Bloodling is good? The creature is black."
"Well, you carved it from stone, even though it's detailed, I don't know its color."
Elvira put more thought into it, and then her eyes lit up. "How about we call all your creations Krell? Just add so title behind it for different types."
"Krell… Krell… That is a good na. Does it have any aning?"
"Yes, Krell is an ancient species, just like humans. It's said they were the species that invaded the planet and turned everything upside down."
"They co in legions, have high regeneration, and are very strong."
"That is a suitable na then. Alright, I decided I will just na this one Krell Scout."
"A scout?"
"Yes, it's my first creation, so who knows how strong it is."
"Can you modify your creation?"
"No, it's final."
"Let try to make one." Ben put his palm forward and then used his skill.
[Error… not enough mana.]
'Dammit, I forgot I spent all my mana.'
