“I’ll show you something.”
Danas suddenly said, then snapped his fingers.
As the sound of the snap echoed, another figure emerged from the shadows behind him.
The figure was petite, seemingly a child at first glance, also cloaked in a black robe, their face completely hidden.
However, Shien sensed a familiar magic power from the small figure, causing the expression on his face to disappear for the first time.
Not only Shien, but Oz and Maeve also seemed to sense something.
“Could that be…!?”
“How…”
Oz’s eyes widened, while Maeve was speechless.
“It seems you’ve noticed.” Danas said with a smile. “This is my latest creation. In order to create it, I’ve exhausted all my accumulated resources from the past few decades.”
In other words, it was a magical lifeform that Danas had recently created.
And this magical lifeform, besides consuming the precious materials Danas had accumulated over decades, also used something else.
“Did you use Beatrice’s magic power as a raw material to create this magical lifeform?”
Shien asked with an impassive face.
That was exactly what happened.
“As you know, creating a magical lifeform involves many uncertain factors.”
Danas explained.
“Many factors determine a magical lifeform’s abilities, characteristics, and even appearance.”
“The quality of the materials.”
“The level of the skills.”
“The creator’s imagination.”
“These factors influence the completeness of a magical lifeform and determine its abilities.”
“Because of this, even using the same materials and Bio-Creation Magic, it’s still unlikely to create identical magical lifeforms.”
Danas glanced at the four black-robed figures around him.
“These magical lifeforms of mine, I call them Warfighters. The [Symbiosis] skill they learned can only be acquired by individuals with a deep life connection, usually only twins or similar beings. Ordinary people can’t learn this skill, not even the Divine Race or the Demon Race. So, in order to create these four identical Warfighters, I practically exhausted all my efforts.” Rἁ₦ȰbÊʂ
Magical lifeforms above level eighty weren’t easy to create.
The materials required were probably astronomically expensive.
One could imagine how much effort Danas had put into creating these four magical lifeforms with the [Symbiosis] skill.
Moreover, there was the possibility of failure, or creating other magical lifeforms that couldn’t use [Symbiosis]. Spending all his wealth was definitely a prerequisite for completing these four Warfighters.
Shien could even imagine how many unscrupulous things Danas had done to create these Warfighters.
After all, he was a member of the Old Demon Faction, a lawless terrorist. It was impossible for him to achieve his goals without resorting to unorthodox methods.
What Danas wanted to say was that in order to create the magical lifeform he envisioned, he had to find another way.
How did he find another way?
It was simple.
“Creating a magical lifeform that is exactly as you imagine is extremely difficult, with only one exception, right?”
Shien said calmly.
“That’s right.” Danas nodded happily. “Only when the magic power of a reference object is added is there a high probability of creating a magical lifeform with the same appearance and even abilities as the owner of the magic power.”
This was something Shien could find even in the magic book library beneath the royal palace.
Since even Shien knew this, Danas, an expert in magical lifeforms, couldn’t possibly not know.
Therefore, Beatrice was kidnapped.
“My intention was only to collect some of her magic power. I wasn’t interested in her. Therefore, it was your fellow human who took her away from here, not me.”
Danas smiled, trying to clear his name, then patted the small black-robed figure’s head.
“This child is the creation I made using the magic power collected at that time. It is thanks to her that I can control the evil aura and the evil beings here, making them work for me.”
The reason why the Old Demon Faction occupying this place could ignore the threat of the evil aura and control the evil beings to a certain extent was finally revealed.
Because Danas possessed a magical lifeform created using Beatrice as a prototype, something like a replica of Lilith’s other half, he was able to achieve this.
However…
“Y-you actually created a replica of a god?”
Maeve was shocked.
“Impossible!”
Oz also exclaimed.
