At the sovereign's place, Tang Haofei was responsible for the task handover and reporting. Wen Yu made his way back to Zone One Main City. Once he entered the manor, he hurried into his exclusive laboratory.
The laboratory was spacious and equipped with various devices. Not only did it have all the cutting-edge equipment from Beijing, but it also housed a new skill scroll production line, a soul puppet development research room, a soul armament attribute enhancement and forging research room, and the newly constructed "Fate Beast Observation Room," "Soul Beast Upgrade Institute," and "Purple Mist Research Room."
In the Fate Beast Observation Room, faint sounds of crisp impacts could be heard. Wen Yu took a quick glance, and through the laboratory's wall, he saw a small fate beast struggling in a special transparent box, repeatedly banging against the walls, seemingly dissatisfied with its current treatment.
In the years since his return, Wen Yu had poured a significant amount of energy into the Fate Beast Observation Room and the Soul Beast Upgrade Institute. Apart from summarizing the conditions and steps for soul beast upgrades, he had gained nothing else.
That's right; for the last step of upgrading the soul beasts into fate beasts, Wen Yu still hadn't found a viable solution.
However, this didn't matter much.
The research on soul beast upgrades was nearing perfection; in fact, if it weren't for the matter with the spirit of the demon lord, Wen Yu had intended to carry out an upgrade transformation for the soul beasts recently, but it seemed this experiment would need to be postponed.
Strolling into the soul puppet development research room, Wen Yu looked at nearly a hundred trial-type soul puppets of various materials, all writhing continuously, his expression remained unchanged. He merely found a slightly cleaner test bench and placed three air variant soul puppets and a lava giant orb on it.
Then, with runes flickering, the sealing array designed and manufactured by Wen Yu quickly suppressed the four struggling variant soul puppets. Countless delicate mechanical arms extended from the test bench, shining with a cold light, as if they were about to dismember the four pitiful captives at any moment.
Wen Yu silently opened the computer beside him, directed the camera towards the prepared test bench, and began the first test on the variant soul puppets.
...
"Number One: Air Variant Soul Puppet. Estimated physical quality: 134w. The concentration of origin power is thin, only able to support offensive actions, unable to sustain defense. Speed exceeds a hundred times its physical quality (extremely fast) (red highlight) (highly threatening)! Besides Creation Energy detection and soul perception, it cannot be detected by other sensory abilities."
"Number Two: Air Variant Soul Puppet. Estimated physical quality: 156w. Same as above..."
"Number Three: Air Variant Soul Puppet. Estimated physical quality: 121w. Same as above..."
"Conclusion: Extremely high lethality and cannot be captured by conventional means, making effective attacks impossible. Attacks containing origin power cannot be blocked (including conceptual defense capabilities). Once locked on by an air variant soul puppet, one can only rely on immortality to withstand."
"Number Four: Lava Giant Variant Soul Puppet. Estimated physical quality: 2000w+, with an extraordinary concentration of origin power. It can use origin power for both attacks and defense, inherently fire-affine, with immense lethality and attack range! It can be perceived and observed by normal means and is immune to most physical attacks, but has weak defense against energy attacks."
"Conclusion: Warrior-type variant soul puppets will possess significant deterrence on the battlefield! Non-type eleven level strongmen cannot contend!"
After several tests, looking at the reports he had written, Wen Yu furrowed his brow, seemingly facing a significant dilemma.
He had methods to deal with these variant soul puppets—such as the air variant soul puppets, their existence stood out to Wen Yu like bright lights in the night sky.
