Chapter 133 Development of Deadly Sin Biosystems Begins

***Edited by Kronost***

Ever since Dark learned that the stone stools in the centre of the lake were a switching hub, he always wanted to feel the "jump".

But as expected, apart from the slight dizziness caused by spinning in circles, there was no other feeling.

He patted his extremely sore thigh and forced himself to start walking.

"First thing is the materials needed to make the five Generic Spells..."

Dark took out his notebook, which recorded a detailed list of materials.

Except for the blank magic spell card that required 50 credits to make [Blinking Spell], the other four spells only needed 10-credits magic cards.

Moreover, these five Generic Spells were very similar in the ratio of basic materials, and many materials could be used in general.

The difficulty lay in the part that was not basic materials.

That was, the special "ink" that is poured into the magic energy pen and used to write "Magical Language".

And the core material that gives magic cards special properties.

According to Dark's estimation, the credits required to buy all the five magic spell card production materials were roughly as follows:

①Magic Bullet Spell: 100 credits

②Push Push Curse: 200 credits

③Obstruction Spell: 300 credits

④Fade Spell: 400 credits

⑤Blinking Spell: 1000 credits

Among them, the production difficulty of [Blinking Spell] was obviously more than one level higher than the other four spells.

The materials needed to make [Blinking Spell] were also very expensive.

Students must choose the magic spell card that was suitable for production according to their credit limit and ability, and complete it in class Introduction to Magic on Monday.

Of course, the main purpose of the class was to learn how to imprint the spell on the magic card.

As long as students learned this important step, they could continue to refine other magic spell cards according to their needs.

...

Dark originally wanted to try to buy a complete set of material packs directly from the [Wind Traveller] material store, but the shop owner told him that the school had specifically told him not to sell material packs...

"It seems that they want to test students' ability to identify, collect and purchase materials."

Dark shook his head, and started shopping around.

There were quite a few students who had come to buy materials and endured the same pain as him; often Dark met classmates with the same purpose as him after entering a certain store.

However, it seemed that the students were all cash-strapped, with sad expressions on their faces.

Dark glanced at his credit limit, and he was also cash-strapped, so he had to buy only one copy of [Blinking Spell] materials and two copies of each of the other four spells.

No one could guarantee that they would succeed in the first refining.

Dark had actually experienced many failed experiments, so it was a good idea to buy an extra copy.

After all the materials were prepared, the sun had already started setting on the horizon.

Dark came back with many different bags, making the classmates he occasionally met envious.

After the meal, Dark, who put the material package in the dormitory, came to Traveller Street again.

Although Traveller Street was still lively tonight, it was obviously less crowded than before—but it was normal.

After all, some first-year students were lying in the dormitory, and some students were busy with homework.

There were also some students who were still addicted to the secret passage adventure.

The strategies of the professors were somewhat effective, and there were fewer people who went to explore the secret passage than before.

...

More students of the same year as him went out after dinner compared to noon.

But Emma and most girls of the Magister House were not amongst them; clearly, they hadn't recovered yet.

By the way, Dianna stayed in the dorm obediently because she had to take care of Rose.

Dark was thankful for that.

So much so, that he still had a smile on his face when he met White and Robert.

"Hi, Dark."

White greeted as usual: "Are you also here to buy materials?"

Dark nodded slightly: "Yes, you too?"

White smiled: "Of course, Professor Jones' training was really tough. If only I had Robert's physique."

Robert was slightly proud: "It's too easy."

White added: "I'm going to buy [Blinking Spell] materials, but I'm worried about failure."

Dark: "Buy it. Failure is not terrible. As long as you can learn from the failure, any amount of loss is worth it."

White: "If you say that, then I'm relieved."

...

So White and Robert went to buy the materials for the spell card.

Dark went to buy [Curse Cage] and [Fusion] materials.

Both [Curse Cage] and [Fusion] belonged to the category of higher-level magic cards, and they were both very special magic spell cards with a magic spirit card base.

Using [Curse Cage], people can temporarily seal pseudo life forms such as familiar spirits and golems, and use them as a magical spirit card.

With [Fusion], two or more magical spirits could be fused into one.

The difficulty of making these two magic spell cards was very high, and the material price was more than 1500 credits.

Although Dark had found the recipes for the two magic spell cards from "Three Thousand Magical Uses of Curse Cage" and "On the Extraordinary Characteristics of Fusion Series Card Groups", he was not confident that he would be able to refine them successfully.

In order to complete the production of these two magic cards, he also had to teach himself "Magical Language".

→Purchasing materials in advance was only so he could start the experiment at any time.

But the materials for both the magic cards were very difficult to find, and Dark had to continue searching the next day.

It wasn't until Saturday noon that Dark collected the materials for the two magic cards.

After lunch.

Dark came to "Kitties Flower and Tree Shop".

"The necessary magic card production materials have been collected, and now I can finally start researching my own card system!"

The success of [Gatomon] has inspired him a lot.

In his opinion, the value of cat grass was no less than a high-grade alchemy tool.

In layman's terms, after cultivating [Deadly Sin] into fruit through cat grass, [Deadly Sin Fruit] could be given certain biological characteristics.

For example:

[Pride]+ [Cat Grass (Cat)] = [Fruit of Pride (Cat)]

It could be used to refine cat type magical spirits.

But what if other kinds of cat grass were used?

For example:

[Wrath]+[Cat Grass (Carp)] = [Fruit of Wrath (Carp)]

Could this [Fruit of Wrath (Carp)] be used to make MagiCarp that can evolve with [Wrath]?

Or, could the [Greed Fruit (Cat)] be used to refine Meowth that can evolve with [Greed]?

...

This search for the unknown was fascinating.

Dark's enthusiasm for this type of research was clearly higher than others.

It had been half a month since he last entered the [Kitties Flower and Tree Shop].

There were also several other species of cat grass in the store.

According to the shop assistant, those other species were the types that had received good responses from customers.

"Is the cobra I saw before gone already? I don't know if it was taken back or bought by someone."

Dark looked around a little but couldn't help crouching down, picking up a puppet cat and pet it.

"Meow~"

Petting cat grass is really addicting.
