Thousand-Faced Dragon

Chapter 115 The Perfect Creature (Evil)

Bad news often comes in quick succession, but misfortune often has both cause and effect.

"I don't think the deer princes of the Beast Realm would be interested in rescuing their father. These should be newborn 'princes,' and since the seal is already broken, they must have come from the underground ruins."

After that brutal civil war between orcs and beastmen, not all beast packs that rejected human nature were killed.

Some of them were sealed away along with the beasts, while others simply left this world.

After all, in the multiverse, it's not too difficult for a powerful being to open a portal and escape.

There are actually many losers in the Outer Dimensions, some of whom have become accustomed to the Outer Dimensions, while others are always eager to fight back.

The Realm of Ten Thousand Beasts, a place similar to the Realm of Machines, was given its name after the war between orcs and beasts.

Some of the defeated beasts from the civil war migrated and settled in that plane, where, according to legend, there are still "beasts" that can move freely. This is a special plane that even the gods would not actively provoke.

The beasts that reject humanity live in the Realm of Ten Thousand Beasts, a world where only bestiality exists. They still follow the ancient natural cycles, and naturally, there are descendants of "deer" and other beasts in the area.

And this snow-white body, but pure black eyes without pupils, is the physical characteristic of "Deer" Elsena.

Only its direct descendants are qualified to possess this similar appearance.

"Uh, that evil god Elsena is so beautiful." In Rean's imagination, considering the form of the "Holy Mother", the deer should have strange tentacles all over its body, and many extra eyes and heads.

"Is it a matter of appearance? Beasts are children of nature, the embodiment of natural beauty among all living beings. How could they be ugly?"

Judging by appearance alone, this thing would be quite prestigious to keep as a pet at home.

But when you consider its origin, this beauty becomes rather terrifying.

"Are you sure it came from the seal?" This is undoubtedly a rather bad possibility. The seal on the underground ruins is practically useless, as it can even spit out something as troublesome as this.

"Do you think the beasts of the Beast Realm will come to save their ancestors? It's not entirely impossible for an oddity to appear, but it's absolutely impossible for four princes to appear at once." Since the Beast Realm is unlikely to send anyone over, then the only possibility is that they were created by sealing themselves.

The power of beasts comes from their bloodline, and the closer they are to the source, the stronger they become. The strength of the direct descendants of the beast princes goes without saying; they are also very prestigious beings in the multiverse.

Such beings are of noble status and rare in number, and their lineage is often limited. It is virtually impossible for four of them to be dispatched at once.

"First of all, there might not even be four Deer Princes in the entire Beast Realm. And if they were truly mature Beast Princes from the Beast Realm, they wouldn't need to hide in the Underworld; they could simply lead their herds to attack Radiant City."

This form is clearly that of a newly born larva, likely a product that escaped from the seal of that underground ruin.

The bad news is that they are definitely acting on Elsena's orders to rescue their father.

The good news is that even beasts need time and resources to grow to this level; it's unrealistic to expect them to grow to that level in just a few years.

"Therefore, they have a very high chance of creating magical girls."

Uh, Rean felt like he might have missed something. How did he come to this conclusion from that?

Purple Rose explained it briefly: magical girls are, in essence, a link between a human and a beast, a coexistence of "humanity" and "beasthood" shared by both.

This is a fairly mature and advanced technology for creating combat power. Even a Beast Prince at the cub level can create magical girls by sharing.

Moreover, after the contract is signed, the person's growth rate is used to accelerate their maturation.

"Children of beasts lack combat power, but magical girls do not. By consuming the humanity of magical girls after forming a contract, they can grow rapidly."

In theory, only high-ranking Beast Children can use this ritual, but now it's more common for original magical girls to evolve into witches as their contracted beasts, with both evolving together.

"Huh? Aren't those beasts against humanity?"

"Yes, that's why they'll be even more ruthless and infuse more bestiality into them. The magical girls will transform into beasts even faster! They'll use the magical girls as expendable resources."

The same technology, but completely different results: magical girls outside the Seven Beasts Alliance rarely have a good ending.

However, allowing the beastly nature to devour the magical girl in this way creates a "monster" quite quickly.

The only good news is that it needs a suitable "deer girl," and the underground world probably doesn't have one.

At least, there won't be many; only a very small number of qualified individuals have the possibility of forming a contract, and finding them requires time and luck.

"It seems we need to inform Dania as soon as possible. This is truly the worst possible development." Rean was somewhat disappointed, as he had initially thought it was a treasure trove, but now it looked like a landmine.

Suddenly, he noticed that Kuku and Purple Rose were both looking at him with surprise, as if he had said something wrong.

"Are high-ranking dragon sons and divine sons valuable?" Purple Rose asked a rather strange question.

"Uh, I kind of get it." Rean immediately understood; he still had materials for a baby dragon in his storage bag. Hunting baby dragons usually meant he'd easily get punished by the mother dragon.

"High-level dragon cubs and holders of divine blood are rare occurrences in the prime material plane. But do you know how rare perfect beast blood inheritors are? They are treasures from head to toe!"

Rean immediately understood.

“I remember one of them fell before, and its horn was used to make a divine dagger.”

Kuku looked at the wanted poster, his mouth practically watering.

The four cubs of the Beast Child, their very bodies are extraordinary materials, an astronomical fortune!
Such rare beings are usually guarded by a bunch of random powerful beings or even divine beasts, but now they've been confirmed to be in this underground world, without any powerful guards around them. No wonder the spirit flayers have all started to move.

Immediately, Rean became excited and couldn't wait to fight evil.

"Moreover, they certainly wouldn't have brought everything with them when they escaped from the seal; they might even be hiding the treasures of the 'beasts,'" Purple Rose's words were very convincing.

"The Beast Child of Elsena also has the right to control gravity and separation. Its antlers can be peeled off to create top-tier equipment containing the rules of 'overturning,' 'inversion,' and 'gravity.' Several legendary artifacts used it as material, such as the famous 'Dagger of Oathbreaker.'"

When it comes to animals, Purple Rose is a true expert.

Now that the materials for the artifact are at stake, the previously hesitant recruit squad instantly became excited.

If this is a puff-up scam, I suggest doing more of it.

Unfortunately, the underground dwarves didn't know much about it; they had only heard that it had appeared in the vicinity before, so they sent this mind flayer to search for it.

However, they also brought Rean some good news.

"The mastermind's underground base isn't far from here." After some deliberation, the temporary team ultimately abandoned their plan to launch a direct attack.

After all, the mainframe is not a different level of difficulty from ordinary mind flayers, especially when it is on its home turf, where the power of the mind field is infinitely amplified, especially when there are a large number of mind flayers and mind eaters below it that are almost a collective consciousness.

If the lair is full, there might be twenty or thirty mind flayers and at least ten times that number of armed slaves. This is clearly not an opponent that can be easily dealt with.

"Let's save that machine race first."

After all, human lives cannot wait.

As the team continued their journey, in an underground cavern, the metal walls, resembling those of a spaceship, were trembling slightly.

The Nautiloids, a race of mind flayers, are indeed capable of traveling to other worlds.

This is their base and lair, where they integrate into the local environment, but it is also the spaceship that, once activated, can take them to foreign lands.

At this moment, the mainframe had no time to care about the outsiders who killed its own kind. Ninety percent of the spirit flayers in the community were helping it to carry out the difficult task at hand.

In the core control area at the deepest part of the base, in a massive super saltwater pool, lies the main brain, formed by the aggregation of countless mind flayer brains.

It is ugly and twisted, yet powerful and rational. Countless lives are sacrificed before it, becoming offerings for the current mission.

It is the true master of the entire Mindflayer race, or rather, the entire race is its branch.

In the past, the pool where it was located was absolutely inaccessible to outsiders, but now, an "outsider" has been placed in the pool.

Amidst the countless tentacles extending from the main brain, a snow-white fawn was wailing.

Meanwhile, on the deer's torn skull, the main brain was connecting with it, with twisted tentacles twitching and large amounts of brain tissue being poured into it.

A large number of mind flayers around are maintaining their mental stance, helping their master control the mind of this beast child. Its mental defenses are gradually being shattered under the crushing force of the entire mind flayer race.

A powerful will is attempting to possess this sacred body.

Beasts are the pinnacle of physical combat units.

The mastermind is the pinnacle of mental power.

If the two were to actually be combined...
"A powerful being that has never been born before, possibly the strongest mind flayer king in all planes, is being born in our hands." Sensing that the Beast Child's resistance was getting weaker and weaker, the excited mind flayer waved the tentacles on its cheeks.

"Bang!" In that instant, the moment it relaxed, its brains were shattered by the explosion.

The clash of psychic abilities is just that brutal.

At this moment, the mental tug-of-war between the mastermind and the child of the beast continued. With just a moment of relaxation, one of the "servers" was directly destroyed by the will of the child of the beast.

The fawn's eyes shone with a dark light; it had not yet given in.

Judging from the situation, this unprecedented monster, this perfectly evil being, still needs some time to be born.
