Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 770 The Key to Evolution (2-in-1)

The whole plan is not complicated.

The magic potion of love still paves the way, along with the lyre, the elixir of life, and all sorts of other methods...

After a series of operations, the mother insect begins to lay eggs.

But after that, Roy also faced a dilemma.

Should I...?

Or, how do we get the eggs out of the nest?
"The Kingdom of God is a special place."

The laws governing the outer planes determine that a special form, somewhere between soul and matter, exists there.

The primordial power rises to become the soul and sinks to become matter; this involves the deepest secrets of the universe!

Another day, in the study, Roy and his "second daughter" Grenita were looking up information and discussing plans.

I increasingly feel that, most of the time, the soul enters the Kingdom of God in a positive flow.

To extract a soul from it and bring it into the world is another matter entirely.

Roy read extensively through the books, and even studied the information about the Temple of Egliss, and found that it was a miracle no less than the "birth of the Holy Son"!

That would require a soul of at least the gold level to reside permanently in the material world, remaining unchanged and integrated with matter.

Otherwise, the soul is easily polluted by the world, quickly degenerates, decays, and transforms into another life form.

This is why babies are pure and innocent, but adults are tainted by all sorts of filth.

Normally, beings like angels and demons are unwilling to descend in their true forms.

Unless one can obtain the corresponding soul essence to replenish it, it won't be too much of a loss.

The great wizards and legendary spellcasters, on the other hand, have distanced themselves from the mortal world and traveled to the astral plane and outer planes.

In addition to the influence of the material world itself, there is also the resistance and engulfment of the world's will!
There were similar details when Roy fought against those Temple Descendants before.

The angels were enraged and wanted to descend to punish themselves, but they were stopped.

Therefore, before the birth of that destined extraordinary demigod descendant, one must plan whether to let it be born in the material plane and become something like an epic hero or a descendant of divine blood, or to foster it in the divine kingdom and retrieve it after becoming a great wizard in the future.

……

The new year is here.

Then spring came and autumn went, and in the blink of an eye, more than a year had passed.

The "mother," Matrikal, is pregnant and is developing several powerful insect eggs within her body.

Roy visited Him several times and could feel that special vitality.

"Fizz!"

The "mother" Matrikal has recognized this advanced life form that has been frequently feeding her and finding her male insects lately.

Even now, its limited wisdom still carries a hint of disbelief.

Such a good thing actually exists in the world?
"You look pretty good. What should we eat today?"
"I've got it! Let's make some new kind of roast meat, 'Salka's Meat,' how about that?"

Roy felt the kindness emanating from the giant insect and smiled.

He immediately broke the seal and took out a large piece of artificial meat the size of a house.

This is an alchemy recipe that he discovered by chance while searching for various materials to research the recipes for the insects.

Essentially, it is a technique for artificially blending flesh and blood, similar to Ossedi.

However, unlike other materials, it leans more towards natural flesh and blood, and is also connected to the mysteries of chalk and black soil.

Therefore, some wizards in the Abundance Garden were also studying it.

Roy spent some money to buy some, and soon used his talent for reverse engineering to master it himself.

As a result, after all that work, he picked up his lyre and played it again for his "mother," Matrikal.

Among the nearby mountains, a giant, earwig-like insect called the "Zila Worm" crawled up.

Following closely behind, three other giant alien insects of similar size, each measuring two to three hundred meters in length, appeared beside it.

Each of them carries the bloodline of different exotic insects such as scorpions and longhorn beetles.

Moreover, they are all the same kind of demigods!

Amidst the roar of the landslide, the earth trembled, and debris rained down.

The Zila worm swayed its long antennae, its sickle-shaped appendages easily slicing through the rock walls along its path, piercing the earth as it plowed through the land at breakneck speed.

At the front of its body, around the mouthparts of its head, the huge jaws opened and closed, producing a metallic scraping sound that made your teeth ache.

Boom!

The "mother" Matricale was knocked to the side, several of its tentacles were severed, and green sap flowed out.

Matricale was furious. She swallowed the meat in two bites, then began to attack the enemy madly.

But three other giant alien insects quickly joined the attack, their sharp bone spikes, prominent fangs, and long tail hooks striking in turn.

"They've actually started fighting!"

The incident happened somewhat suddenly, and Roy also looked surprised.

However, over the course of his time, he had indeed witnessed many similar scenes as he entered and exited this divine kingdom.

The insects here often engage in fierce battles, with the victors devouring the vanquished, consuming their flesh and souls completely.

But it all revolves within the Kingdom of God.

Under the influence of this mysterious force, all instincts for "survival" and "reproduction" will be stimulated, and they will grow in accordance with another universal law of evolution.

Over time, it will become stronger, just like sharpening a knife.

But for no reason, things turned out this way, which is also a hardship for Roy.

He could only hide to the side and observe secretly, looking for an opportunity to help the mother insect in secret.

Fortunately, the mother insect was quite capable. In a very short time, she bit off one of the giant insect's forelimbs, swallowed it whole, and then triggered the lyre's special effect.

The divine power of war disturbs the souls, with effects such as "War Praise," "Fanatic Aura," "Enhanced Appetite," and "Feast of Heroes"...

With the help of powerful forces, the situation was barely stabilized.

At the same time, under the command of the queen ant, thousands of offspring rushed to the scene, like soldier ants guarding the ant colony, and launched a desperate counterattack against the invading enemy.

These offspring were of ordinary strength, and they quickly suffered heavy casualties in the face of the three demigod-level alien insects.

But with Roy's divine power, they miraculously survived.

This semi-divine artifact finally played its due role at a higher level, demonstrating a powerful force unlike anything ordinary.

The final result was a Pyrrhic victory for the "mother" Matrikal.

The attacking alien insects suffered one death and three injuries, and fled in panic.

It raised its head, looking down at the ravaged mountains and its dead offspring, and let out a sharp cry.

But at that moment, the already severely injured mother insect suddenly writhed in agony, her massive body crashing to the ground with a thud, convulsing in pain.

Roy frowned as he saw this, but the lyre in his hand was not omnipotent; it could only keep it afloat for the time being.

Then, things got even worse.

The eggs in the abdomen underwent changes.

It seems that one of the eggs is about to hatch prematurely due to the stimulation of the mutation!
******
"what happened?

Could it be that it was poisoned by those insects from before?

Roy sensed an unusually mysterious aura and couldn't help but look surprised and doubtful.

Suddenly, he looked up sharply at the sky.

There is nothing there.

But strangely, it seemed as if some unseen force was watching over the vast sky.

Their gazes fell upon us, as if a celestial being were bending down to examine something.

"It is the will of the world!"

At that moment, Roy felt a familiar yet strange sensation. A legendary destiny was forming!
"The egg inside this mother insect's belly actually has a 'protagonist halo' that receives the attention and favor of the world's will?"

He was instantly startled.

However, upon closer examination, it seems to make perfect sense.

The flow of spirit within the divine kingdom is originally a process of constantly selecting the best from among the best through battles against evil spirits, continuously refining the essence.

The losers are the "reward" for the victors; all flesh, blood, life, and soul will be devoured in the brutal battle.

However, because of his intervention, the battle could not be truly decided. Instead, the mother insect was forced to fight four against one, resulting in a draw.

Under the influence of some mysterious, unseen force, fate was rewritten.

Now that he also possessed the [Alchemy Godhood], Roy's understanding of these things had deepened considerably, and his senses had become much sharper.

Suddenly, he sensed an unusual power flowing within him.

A dull ache throbbed between my brows, as if some of my very essence had been severed.

A semi-transparent illusory panel appeared, seizing the power that originally belonged to the worm inside the mother worm's abdomen in the form of alchemical talent.

Key to Evolution (Gold Level)

[By mastering the secrets of evolution and mutation, and utilizing "Creation Technique" and corresponding life modifications, one's ability level increases by 3, and one can use magical catalysis to replace most of the required materials.]

Almost at the same time.

"Mutations"!
Another [seed of concept] has been included.

"this!"

Before I could think any further, thunder roared across the sky.

A mysterious entity seemed to have discovered something and was immediately enraged.

A powerful will is awakening, and the once peaceful Insect Kingdom is instantly thrown into turmoil.

Thousands of insects trembled in fear.

Without hesitation, Roy reversed "Astral Projection" and immediately left the spot.

As his figure disappeared, the world seemed to gradually return to calm, leaving only Matrikal there to eke out a living.

Suddenly, its life force vanished rapidly, as if it had been swallowed up by some powerful will.

A moment later, her abdomen throbbed, as if something was rapidly growing inside.

……

"That was close! We were almost discovered by the World Will!"

On the other side, in the Abundant Harvest Garden.

Roy, still shaken but secretly relieved, carefully reviewed the events.

Because of his high enough soul rank and divine status, he was able to sense the attention of some unseen being.

That will is not in the form of intelligent life, so its behavior and thought patterns are quite different from those of normal organisms.

This is something that can be fully utilized.

But after that, he tried to contact the divine kingdom again, wanting to send down a projected avatar remotely to observe it secretly.

However, it was discovered that a connection could not be established.

Divine Kingdom...

I rejected him!

It even carried a hint of malice as its soul power rapidly spread over.

Before the opponent could launch an attack, Roy quickly severed the connection, a look of surprise on his face.

"I've been marked and can't get in!"

Soon after, Freya also learned of Roy's ordeal.

Up until now, she still doesn't know anything about the soul essence and alchemical talent, but she can roughly guess that Roy must have done something that angered the heavens and angered the insects, something that broke the rules.

The will of the world rejected him, causing the token to malfunction.

"let me try……"

Freya picked up the keepsake bone fragment and closed her eyes to meditate for a while.

The result was swift and genuinely surprising.

"That won't work either!"

"You are my follower, and our soul contract is intertwined..."

The same logic applies to Atedia and the others...

Needless to say, there's also the like, Domi.

"Take back the world of Archademia and let Ingnim and the others try it out!"

Roy had calmed down by this point and told Freya to take care of the matter immediately.

At the same time, he also tried to use "interdimensional summoning" to contact the giant insect Will.

Fortunately, he was still able to contact the giant worm Will.

It wasn't just the giant worm Will.

In the eight years since he acquired this keepsake, he has spent considerable time figuring out how to exploit loopholes in the system.

Especially in the last year or two, they found a lot of high, medium and low-level alien insects and successfully made contracts with them.

Therefore, he had long been aware that privately contracting these insects was a violation of the Insect Fighting Association's rules and a way to exploit the Divine Kingdom. This was a loophole in the rules that many powerful figures were tacitly aware of.

They have long established secret soul channels, using faith anchors to replace communication with the Kingdom of God.

This is something that only true gods and above can do; even ordinary false gods and demigods cannot do it!

Besides, Ingnim and others can still enter.

They did not have the kind of soul contract with their followers, so they were not implicated or sealed away together.

Roy chuckled dryly at the result, then shook his head with a sigh.

"Forget it, let's quit while we're ahead."

They obtained a legendary/demigod-level contracted insect spirit, a gold-level talent, and the corresponding concept seed.

This is no longer a question of whether the "ticket price" is worth it; it's a huge windfall.

He had no intention of exploiting a divine kingdom for personal gain.

……

at the same time.

The land of insects, the world of Vangeon.

Matrikal, who had been lying in the same spot for several days, died quietly at some unknown time.

Strangely, the corpse, which should have been quickly discovered and devoured by other alien insects, was preserved in some bizarre way.

The surroundings were deathly silent. Even the offspring born to the mother insect fled the scene one after another, not daring to linger.

Suddenly, a powerful energy wave shot out like a magic cannon, directly piercing through the mother body, which resembled a withered tree.

A strange creature, resembling a human but wearing a chitinous cap resembling long horns on its head and beetle elytra growing on its back, slowly emerged.

Its body is long and strong, covered with a black and green biological carapace. It has obvious arthropod features on its thorax and abdomen, and has hard elytra similar to those of a beetle on its back. Its tail is thick and long, with a large needle-like end.

It spread its hands, looked at its palms, and its face, which resembled that of a handsome young human but still retained many insect-like features, showed a thoughtful and puzzled expression.

"This incarnation..."

How could it be so bad!?
