YM778.TV Chapter 1012 Development 1
The process for Refinement at his current stage was simple. Record the materials composition, inject the energy and then gain the final material. It sounded easy, but it required a severe amount of mental power, knowledge, and control over minute forces.
Thanks to Tier 5 Control allowing him to peek into the quantum realm with his Void of Perfection, this was easy as pie and was one of the main reasons he could even advance to Stage 2.
So, all Draco had to do, was focus his mind onto the Divine Materials he took and then record their make up in detail. He couldn\'t afford to make any mistake here, because his current skill was not assisted by the system.
As such, if there was even a miniscule difference in his recording of the composition, due to a mistake made out of negligence, the material would end up inferior when he produced it or even drop a Rank.
｢Divine Amniotic Fluid – Material
Rank: Divine
Use: Alchemy｣
There were 20 bottles of this material, which cast Draco\'s mind back. He had harvested it from the sac that Rila had been born in during the Flora and Fauna Unique Quest, which was where he had met his first \'prodigial daughter\'.
Alas, the little tyke had gone out with his Avatar to roam the Unmapped Zones, but he didn\'t worry about them. Given his level of power, she should be safe. At that time, Draco did not have the power nor the qualification to use this item, but now that he was a peak Grandmaster of Alchemy, this could very well be the foundation of his breakthrough.
｢Fruit of the Orchard – Consumable
Rank: Divine (30% effectiveness)
Effect: Strengthen the life force and talent of one person greatly. Useless on individuals with Divine traits.｣
Draco held up a glowing white fruit that shone like a chandelier. Just holding it made him feel strong and fresh, much less consuming it. However, it only had a 30% effectiveness, so it was best mixed with other precious materials and turned into a finished product like juice, booze or a potion.
He had gathered them from that orchard, after defeating Fruity the giant bat. It had forced him to fuse with his Devil Form for the first time since he got his Abyss Prime Divine Class.
Man, that was over 2 years ago to day. Damn, time really had passed.
Draco looked at the Divine Amniotic Fluid and then this fruit - of which he had literal gardens of them - and his eyes narrowed.
A recipe was drawing itself up in his head, but it was still lacking some things.
｢Tasty Lettuce – Material
Rank: Divine
Use: Cooking｣
Uh… Draco drew a blank for a few seconds before remembering that this too originated from Norma\'s Treasury. It was when he had been browsing the outer section and entered the three resource zones as a test, the Orchard first, the Garden second and the Animal Farm third.
This one was from the garden and was his final reward after killing Viney, the giant tentacle monster that would chill the hearts of any female - or make the loins of some soaked.
He had sacrificed his Cooking Tradeskill long ago, so why the fuck did he still have this? Well, he would record it for sure…
Ah right, if Draco remembered correctly, Ghostpro had a fascination with Cooking, so he tried to make a mental note to give it to him later.
｢Divine Trial Token – Consumable
Rank: Divine (100% effectiveness)
Effect: Activate this token to travel from the Divine World to the gateway of the Origin Realm. There, you can partake in the Divine Trial and acquire many rewards!｣
Draco held up this stylish token and pondered. This was a free way to access the Divine Realm that Eva had acquired as reparations due to Sunna declaring a Divine War on her lacking a proper casus belli.
Eva had kept it until now because neither she nor Draco were strong enough to take on True Gods, so what kind of nonsense would they be doing by heading there?
However, that line of thought stemmed from before they had reached 100% bloodline, so…
Draco tossed it back into his inventory as he could only replicate Divine Materials, not Divine Items.
｢Divine Guardian Contract – Consumable
Rank: Divine (100% effectiveness)
Effect: Contract any willing mortal to become your Divine Guardian, granting them a wisp of your Divine Energy in exchange for eternal servitude and indenture.｣
Draco looked the contract up and down. This was another thing Sunna had been forced to use as reparation, and it made Draco understand a little bit more about the Divine Realm.
He also tossed this thing away into his inventory because it was a consumable, thus not something he could replicate.
｢Supreme Enlightenment Scroll – Consumable
Rank: Divine (100% effectiveness)
Effect: Activate this scroll to gain a potent period of intense enlightenment in whatever topic you are researching for 1 week.｣
Draco\'s expression stiffed when he held this item. Currently, he had two of them, one from when he was at Stage 1 Refinement given to him by Norma, and the second one given when he had reached Stage 2 Refinement.
Luckily, due to his overpowered talent and various attributes like Control, bloodline and whatnot, he had been able to brute force his way into Stage 2.
However, he wasn\'t sure if and when he would ever hit Stage 3 or 4. There was no Stage 5 as completing Stage 4 would fulfill Norma\'s dream and officiate the Tradeskill, causing Draco to become the Origin God of Refinement.
Stage 3 would allow him to replicate Origin Materials and Divine Items with enough energy. Stage 4 would allow him to replicate Origin Items with enough energy and he would no longer need to use an intermediary material, nor would he need to know about the end material.
Anyway, he couldn\'t replicate this scroll for now, and he was definitely not going to use it easily till he could assure a steady supply of them.
｢Power Breaker Divine Flower – Consumable
Rank: Divine (50% effectiveness)
Effect: This herb allows a person to break any seals or shackles on themselves and exercise their full power regardless of where they are.｣
This was a grey area item with regards to Refinement. A \'Consumable\' tag usually meant that the thing in question was an item since it had one time use, but this also applied to some materials.
So Consumable items like these could be refined by Draco thankfully. As for where he got it, it was an item that the Luck Sentinel had been trying to grow in order to escape Draco\'s control.
Currently, the fellow was still on the Sentinel Planet in the Inner Universe, acting as a stallion by constantly impregnating the Homines, a strange humanoid species that looked like mannequins.
pαпdα-ňᴏνê|·сóМ Eva had purchased a member of this unique species at the Bazaar. They had no genetic DNA of their own, so whoever or whatever \'spurts\' in them or \'gets spurted\' by them would gain an offspring that would 100% be a replica of the other parent\'s bloodline/genes.
It had been perfect to make the Luck Sentinel replicate itself genetically, and then Roma would use her Evil Cauldron skill to break it down into resources.
Speaking of that, it had been a long while since Draco had checked on Roma for that, so the resources should have piled up by now. He made a mental note to do so right after dealing with the replication.
｢Seed of Bodhi Tree – Consumable
Rank: Divine
Effects: This is the Spiritual Tree, able to grant enlightenment to anyone who sits beneath its boughs when planted.｣
This was the final Divine Item, but it was a pure consumable that couldn\'t be replicated. Draco planned to plant it here and merge with the Eternal Tree, but it would likely cause some upheavals so now was not the time to do it.
Draco put the seed away and then sat down, beginning to analyze all the Divine Materials he had. He even got Hoover to bring over one of every Divine ;aterial from the various 99 Resource Zones Norma had left for him.
He also took out all the Divine Materials in the treasury of the Babylon Tower, which made the Fairy Tower Spirit, Moira, furious. She beat Draco and the chest repeatedly, but her tiny little hands could deal no damage.
Seeing that his absence had made her grow rebellious, he once again shrunk to her size and taught her a lesson, leaving her mumbling gibberish with an euphoric expression while covered in white fluid.
It took him about 14 days to record all the materials. Not only were they numerous and varied, but they were complex enough that he needed to devote more time than with Legendary materials.
However, doing this gave Draco untold benefits. Not only was his Control at the peak of Tier 5, he vaguely felt there was going to be a breakthrough to Rank 6.
Not only that, but his comprehension of what constituted \'Divine\' for items grew massively. One should know that Divine items and Divine materials were different.
One was processed, a finished good using special techniques, and one was produced by nature with natural qualities. Recording them helped Draco separate and understand what those natural qualities were, which would make turning them into processed goods easier.
These benefits would help him when trying to break through to the God Rank in his Tradeskills.
Then came the actual replication, which was far easier and quicker. Draco took out some Common Rank materials of random make and then infused them with energy gathered from the atmosphere, in this case, Divine Energy.
He also imbued his understanding of the final item and reorganized what he was holding from the core upwards, using energy to rewrite its very existence.
This was the nature of Refinement.
Draco only spent about a minute per item. So in order to produce at least a hundred of every one of them, he took another 14 days, which meant that just about a month was about to pass.
There were about 2 months until the war officially began, but Draco was not rushed. The Divine Materials were sent to the Rank 7 Refinery to be filtered and turned into half-processed materials.
There, it would take some time for that to be done, but once it was done, it would be automatically sent to the highest floor of the Rank 7 Warehouse and preserved perfectly in the state it was put in.
While this was going on, Draco went to find Roma and asked her about the progress with the Luck Sentinel and the harvesting bit. Roma smiled and attested to the fact that she had been on it ever since and had not slacked for a even a single day, making Draco proud.
As such, Draco quickly sent Rosella out to play with her siblings while he granted her mother the reward she so craved. This time, to show how pleased he was with her, he spent a whole day in her place, and when he came out, he looked ruddy and healthy.
Rosella initially wanted to enter and see her mom, but Draco carried her away to pamper his daughter, so she eventually forgot about Roma.
After all, it wouldn\'t be good for Rosella to enter and see the scandalous state her respected mother had been left in.
While Draco stroked Rosella\'s hair as she lay on his chest, he checked out the various goodies Roma had managed to harvest from the Luck Sentinel over and over again, and his heart couldn\'t help but skip a beat.
