Start With Contracting Sprites Novel - Chapter 369
Chapter 369: Recruiting Sprites, Then Starting the Ritual!
Fallen Advancement!
Recruiting sprites!
This news had already reached the top of the Union’s intranet, forum, and cultivation exchanges.
There was also a short video attached.
It was an edited video.
The video started from the moment the Three-Headed Hound stepped into the set up venue to the mid-stage of evolution and showed the black beam of light rushing into the sky. In the end, the video showed the huge black cocoon being shattered, and a vicious dog covered in burning black flames stepped out, roaring towards the sky.
The whole ritual process was condensed into a video that was dozens of seconds long.
No valuable research information was found inside, but… the success of Fallen Evolution was shown to every person that saw the video.
The success was especially evident in the advanced Hell Hound, its ferocity could be felt even through the screen.
The appearance of such an advanced universal form soon caused a heated discussion in various circles.
“The evolved Three-Headed Hound became so strong. It’s probably already close to monarch rank, right?!”
“Fallen Evolution? It seems to be an evolution with very high potential for development? And it doesn’t seem to be limited to fire-element sprites?”
“It’s currently in the experimental stage of recruiting sprites. What a good opportunity! I can avoid the expensive consultation fee… I’ve signed up, I hope to be selected.”
“Wait, aren’t you going to consider the risk? Even if the information is verified by the Union and can’t be faked, there’s still the risk of the Fallen Evolution, and it might not be compatible with your own sprite… Wait, aren’t you going to consider these things? Moreover, even without consultation fees, the materials needed for the advancement ritual are still very expensive. Once it fails, it will be a heavy loss for most master-level Sprite Trainers, right? They won’t even have the chance to accumulate a second set of materials.”
These words hit the heart of most people.
In the eyes of ordinary Sprite Trainers, a master-level Sprite Trainer was already a strong person, an upper-level figure in society. However, the accumulation of wealth of many master-level Sprite Trainers was still insufficient, and they could barely gather enough money to buy one advanced material.
These were already the savings of years and decades after they advanced to master level.
Once the advancement failed, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to them.
Even if there was already a successful case in the video, they didn’t know exactly how it succeeded.
They didn’t understand how harsh the advanced conditions and how difficult the ritual was.
Therefore, they didn’t dare to try it easily.
At this moment, many Sprite Trainers were discussing on the forum of the intranet, clamoring to register, but the actual number of people registering was very few.
They were all observing what other people were doing.
Suddenly, someone said, “I know that Three-Headed Hound. It’s the sprite of Whale Island University’s first-year instructor, Sun Gaoang. I remember that it has been stuck at the high-level of extraordinary for a long time. I didn’t expect it to break through to pseudo monarch in one go with an advanced ritual!”
“For an advanced ritual to cause such a huge improvement, it means that this ritual must be very successful. Its experimental theory must also be good… I think we can take a gamble!”
“Yes, any advancement ritual is risky unless you can find a grandmaster-level figure to design it for you personally. And in my opinion, the potential of Fallen Evolution is higher than many evolutions. It’s worth a try!”
“If you succeed, you succeed. If you don’t, you don’t.”
…
Although there were still many Sprite Trainers who maintained a wait-and-see attitude, and there were even masters who frankly said that research on such evolution was very difficult, and the risks of sprites as experimental subjects couldn’t have been as low as people claimed it to be…
But…
After all, Dragon Nation had a lot of Sprite Trainers. Even if only a very small number of people signed up for this research, the number was still sizable.
In just three days, the number of applicants on the official website of Su Hao’s laboratory had reached more than 300.
At this moment…
Su Hao sat in front of the computer in the dormitory and logged onto the somewhat crude official website of the laboratory with his administrator authority. From inside, he kept screening the information of more than 300 sprites.
“This one won’t do.”
“Definitely not this one.”
“This one can be kept for consideration.”
Now that he had already unlocked three different Fallen Evolution plans, his understanding of Fallen Evolution was even deeper, and he could make a simple judgment based on the information alone.
At the very least, he could tell which ones were definitely not suitable.
The rest needed to be observed face-to-face to know if it was truly compatible with Fallen Evolution.
Such a process was commonly known as a screening process.
At this moment, he was screening the resumes. This was a very troublesome job. Fortunately, he still had the help of Butterfly, his assistant.
His laboratory team, including Kong Yun, Chang Zhixue, Luo Kexin, and other Sprite Cultivators, were also brought to Whale Island University campus as his assistants… But their abilities were limited. Even the most outstanding of the Sprite Cultivators, Kong Yun, couldn’t do the task of screening the applicants.
The reason why Su Hao called them over was to give them some opportunities to accumulate experience.
Together with some Sprite Cultivators borrowed from Master Yao, they cooperated with him in completing the experiment of Fallen Evolution.
After busying himself for the whole morning, Su Hao finally selected more than ten sprites that might be suitable for Fallen Evolution and prepared to send them an “interview” invitation.
These were all Sprite Trainers from all over the world.
He looked at them one by one, and suddenly, his eyes froze.
This master-level was a little young.
…
At the Whale Island University, in the experimental area, inside an experiment building…
Su Hao was still doing some daily checks on the Three-Headed Hell Hound with a group of Sprite Cultivators.
At the same time, he was also waiting for the interviewees to arrive.
Many interviewees were located all over the world and had their own matters to attend to. They would only arrive in the next three to five days.
However…
There was an interviewee who had already made an appointment today.
Soon, a girl with two ponytails was brought in.
She had a little baby fat on her face and looked very young… Su Hao, who had known her before, knew that she was a student from Whale Island University. Moreover, she was a cute freshman.
She seemed to be a newbie who had just attended his lecture a while ago.
She was called An Xiyao.
But…
“I remember you. You shouldn’t have any extraordinary sprites, right?”
There was no reason for Su Hao not to know about the appearance of any master-level Sprite Trainer in the first year.
After all, being a master in one’s first year would mean the person was already… one-tenth as outstanding as him!
According to the information he obtained as instructor…
An Xiyao’s ace sprite was an elite high-level Butterfly Fairy.
But the experimental subject she submitted was an extraordinary sprite.
“It’s because… because” An Xiyao shook her twin ponytails and said a little nervously and shyly, “I contracted Neon by coincidence when I was young. Because it was too strong, I didn’t let it participate in the college entrance examination and university competition battles. ”
Alright!
What else could he say?┐( ̄ヮ ̄)┌
After all, there was no lack of people in large families who contracted sprites at the age of twelve or thirteen. There were also natural-born domainers like Lan Qing. A sprite that contracted by chance and cultivated to the mid-level of extraordinary was also…
Normal, probably.
An Xiyao stretched out her palm. In a spatial ripple, a human-shaped sprite suddenly appeared.
It had four limbs and a torso that looked like a human. It was wearing clothes woven from leaves, and its entire head was like a light bulb, emitting bright light.
It was a Fluorescent Demon!
It was a Light and wood-element sprite.
In short, only rich women could afford to raise such sprites.
As soon as this sprite appeared, Su Hao immediately observed and pulled out the information of the Fluorescent Demon from the interface.
It was indeed an extraordinary mid-level, and…
“The nature of this sprite is very different from the Three-Headed Hound. It doesn’t seem to be suitable for the Fallen Evolution…”
Master Yao, who came over, rubbed his chin and said.
Upon hearing this, the girl named An Xiyao immediately became nervous. She muttered softly, “I think it’s okay.”
“Little girl, it’s not enough that you think it’s okay. As Sprite Cultivators, we are the ones who will determine whether it is okay. Experiments need to be rigorous…”
Before Master Yao finished speaking, he heard…
“Its nature is completely different from the Three-Headed Hound, but it’s still compatible with the requirements of the Fallen Evolution. As I expected, Fallen Evolution can be divided into three categories. This sprite will do!”
Master Yao: “???”
