Chapter 276: 0232 Learning and Examinations_3
Apart from being an [Arcane Inheritor (Taurus)], after observing the training process of the Taurus Secret Arts, to some extent, he applied what he learned to another, and the Aquarius Secret Technique unexpectedly provided a badge as well.
[Having accepted the weights of the "Scale of Truth" and observed the training methods of the Purification Bureau's secret techniques, you have comprehended the practice methods of the secret technique "Aberration Generation" and activated the Silver-Level Badge "Arcane Inheritor (Aquarius)"]
[Arcane Inheritor (Aquarius):...]
[Wearing effects: Even without the support of the corresponding laws, you can create certain anomalous objects at a level vastly inferior to your own Contamination Value, given suitable materials.]
[Advancement Route:...]
[Hidden Traits (need not be worn): None]
...
So... just by looking at the memories of the former Taurus directors, *without any practical experience*, he thought he had already gotten started?
Seeing Leon's eyes somewhat "wandering" (looking at the badge panel), the Taurus Director couldn't help but frown slightly, worried that he might be overestimating his abilities. After thinking it over, he took out a blood-red bird egg and handed it over.
"This is the Egg of the Hell Carnal Bird. When used in the forging of body-enhancing anomalous objects, just adding one of these can significantly improve the user's perception of their body, preventing direct loss of control due to the rapidly increasing physical qualities."
After explaining the origin of this bird egg, with the intention of giving Leon a small comeuppance and discouraging any thoughts of just theoretical talk, the Taurus Director demanded,
"If I remember correctly, the first lesson of Abnormal Forging Secret Techniques should be melting materials, making them lose their solid form and rules to facilitate subsequent forging.
"So since you claim to have already gotten the hang of it, why not 'burn' this Carnal Flesh Egg and show me your skills?"
*Is this... a test for me?*
After hearing the Taurus Director's words, though he didn't fully understand how the Taurus Secret Arts worked, looking at his newly gained two Silver Badges, Leon still nodded, put on his two new badges, and accepted this "pop quiz."
*'Forging anomaly means burn hard first! After burning, hammer hard! Once hammered properly, the anomalous object is forged.'*
Recalling the commissioner's confident summary in his mind, Leon took a deep breath, mobilized all his "Contamination Value," first frying the egg on high heat, then hammered it vigorously, imitating the apprentices' methods as he went along.
Even due to worrying about not applying enough force, by the time it came to the "sauce collection" stage, he added a little tween from the Aquarius Secret Technique, picking out the thickest rule from this [Carnal Flesh Egg], then boldly thickened, darkened, and enlarged it, like changing the font size, highlighting one noticeable feature!
Done and dusted!
Watching as the originally hard and unusual bird egg gradually became soft and pliable, carrying with it a peculiar sensation unique to an anomalous object, Leon couldn't help but nod with satisfaction before reaching out to poke at his first creation.
[Name: Egg of Sharpness (Flesh, Corruption)]
[Appearance: An ellipsoidal object with a black-red hue, slightly lax. Although it doesn't have a good appearance, it exudes a thick evil aura.]
[Ability: Sharp flesh sensitivity, demonic temperament]
[Cost: Slight loss of stamina]
[File: Arcane Inheritor Leon Laine, combining two secret techniques from the Purification Bureau with his own demon-filled will, specifically created this special anomalous object, capable of making the targeted male creature look more evil, and slightly sensitizing its left bird egg.]
[Evaluation: The most worthless demon creation in history, bar none]
[Contamination Value: 0.1]
"..."
What the hell???
Could it be that the material the Taurus Director just took out wasn't actually a bird's egg, but a... bird's 'egg'?"
