Full-Time Magister: Summoning Agumon at the Start

"Eat it?!" Jiang Shaoxu looked at Lin Chen in front of her with an incredulous expression.

Lin Chen nodded.

"If nothing unexpected happens, this is a fake dragon egg. You actually chose to eat it. Do you know how much money you could sell it for?!" Jiang Shaoxu continued.

"I know, but can you really take it out in public?" Lin Chen retorted, leaving Jiang Shaoxu speechless.

"Since we can't take it out, instead of leaving it here to waste, we might as well eat it." Lin Chen shrugged. "Besides, it's not like we haven't eaten this pseudo-dragon egg before."

"You've eaten it?! What you said before was true?!" Jiang Shaoxu's alluring peach blossom eyes showed a look of shock, her face filled with disbelief.

"Of course it's true. Otherwise, why do you think my Tyrannosaurus is so powerful? It's built with resources." Lin Chen pointed to the Tyrannosaurus beside him and said.

Jiang Shaoxu glanced at the pseudo-dragon egg, then turned his gaze to the Tyrannosaurus Beast, scanning it back and forth a few times before finally looking away.

If Lin Chen really invested so many resources in his summoned beasts, then it's not without reason that he possesses strength far exceeding that of others of the same level, and it's unacceptable.

However, this did not diminish Jiang Shaoxu's curiosity about Lin Chen; on the contrary, it fueled her interest in him even more.

After all, Lin Chen is able to obtain these resources now because of his own strength, but how did he acquire these resources before he had these strength?

……

After inspecting the vicinity of the giant lizard's nest, Lin Chen and Jiang Shaoxu set up their tents there, preparing to rest for the night. Lin Chen took this opportunity to prepare to strengthen the Gilmon once again.

After sending out Greymon and Garurumon to guard the safety, Lin Chen summoned Guilmon, while Jiang Shaoxu stood not far from Lin Chen, quietly watching how Lin Chen was preparing to strengthen his summoned beast.

In fact, Jiang Shaoxu found it strange that Lin Chen would invest so many resources in the summoned beasts summoned from the dimensional portal, instead of using those resources to cultivate a contracted beast.

Although Lin Chen's summoned beasts are very powerful, they are essentially temporary workers who can be replaced at any time. They also have their own lives and may die one day due to an accident, or stop obeying the summoner's call to fight for the summoner.

It's no wonder Jiang Shaoxu thought that way. In fact, many people he knew had the same question. Even Professor Gu Jing, who knew about the digital dimension, had the same question. But Lin Chen couldn't very well tell them that his summoned beast was actually a contracted beast, as that didn't conform to common sense about magic.

The usual order for strengthening summoned beasts is to first cleanse their blood, then shape their soul, and finally strengthen their body. Lin Chen's first acquisition was Dragon Blood Grass, which, by sheer chance, perfectly matched this strengthening order.

Lin Chen took the Dragon Soul Stone out of the ring. Having learned from his previous experience, Lin Chen specifically reminded the Gil Beast to devour the Dragon Soul Stone one by one, instead of swallowing them all at once.

The moment the Gilmon swallowed the Dragon Soul Stone, it felt a powerful pressure coming from the depths of its soul, and immediately let out a painful roar.

Dragon Soul Stones are formed from the surviving souls of high-level dragons after their death. While they can enhance the soul power and spiritual power of dragons, there is a small chance that the user's soul will be devoured by the dragon soul remaining in the Dragon Soul Stone.

"ah!!"

The Gilbeast roared incessantly, and Lin Chen knew that its soul was undergoing a transformation, and it could be devoured by the remaining dragon soul if anything went wrong.

A few minutes later, the Gilmon stopped roaring. Due to the pain it had just experienced, it was temporarily unable to control its aura, and Lin Chen felt a faint but powerful pressure emanating from it.

Lin Chen looked at Guilmon's panel, and the evolution completion rate had reached 86%.

"it works!"

Lin Chen shouted excitedly. He had been a little worried about the Dragon Soul Stone's ability to strengthen the Guil Beast, since the Guil Beast's soul power was already quite high among its peers.

Having confirmed that it had received a certain level of enhancement, Guilmon didn't need Lin Chen's reminder; it simply reached out and took a Dragon Soul Stone, swallowing it whole.

Having learned from its previous experience, Guilmon was much more confident in dealing with this soul impact. Its face did not show the same pain as before. Two or three minutes later, Guilmon devoured the Dragon Soul Stone, and its evolution completion rate was increased once again.

Then came the third and the fourth. After devouring seven Dragon Soul Stones in a row, the pressure on Guilmon stopped increasing, and the evolution completion rate on the panel stopped at 92%.

Since the Dragon Soul Stone has lost its effect, it's time to use the Pseudo-Dragon Egg to strengthen the body.

Previously, Guilmon had also eaten the eggs of the Azure Crocodile Pseudo-Dragon, but at that time only one Digimon was allowed to complete its transformation, and Guilmon did not devour many. This time, however, all of them will be devoured by Guilmon alone.

Seeing the Guilmon walk towards the pseudo-dragon egg, Jiang Shaoxu couldn't help but remind him, "Lin Chen, the Guilmon is only at the Lesser Warrior level. There are so many Warrior-level giant lizard eggs here. Why don't we keep these and save the pseudo-dragon egg for now? Maybe we can take it out sometime."

Lin Chen shook his head and did not agree. Jiang Shaoxu did not understand the situation.

Although Guilmon is only a minor general-level monster, its actual strength is no less than that of a regular major general. Moreover, this upgrade of Guilmon is not like other summoned monsters that are gradually upgraded to the intermediate general level. Instead, it is to complete a qualitative transformation, evolving from the growth stage to the mature stage. The energy required cannot be estimated by appearance alone.

Guilmon approached the pseudo-dragon egg and struck it with a familiar palm strike. With a crisp "crack," a thin crack appeared on the crystal-clear eggshell.

With a "bang," Guilmon struck again, and the pseudo-dragon egg finally cracked open. The blue light inside was dazzling, and the white egg white began to flow out. At the same time, the figure of a giant lizard appeared in front of Guilmon and roared angrily at it.

The Gilmon raised its right claw and slammed it forward, shattering the giant lizard phantom. Without hesitation, it charged forward and began to devour the pseudo-dragon egg liquid.

The warrior-class Guilmon is much larger than the servant-class Guilmon, and unlike before, it doesn't need to swallow the egg liquid in two parts; it can drink all the pseudo-dragon egg liquid in one gulp.

In an instant, streaks of blue light appeared on the body of the Guilmon, which was the essence of life contained in the pseudo-dragon egg.

Nourished by the rich life essence of the pseudo-dragon egg, Guilmon felt its life level gradually rising, the power contained within its body becoming stronger, its limbs becoming more coordinated, and even the hidden injuries left in its body from usual battles were being healed at this time.

While observing Guilmon's physical condition, Lin Chen focused his attention on the evolution panel.

Thanks to the pseudo-dragon egg, Guilmon's evolution completion rate gradually increased from 92%...

93%...95%...97%...

When the life force fluctuations on Guilmon ceased, its evolution completion rate also stopped changing, remaining stuck at 99%, just one step away from completion...
