Full-Time Magister: A Hellish Start, But the Shadow King

Chapter 209 Feng Zhoulong, President of the Demon Capital Research Association, and the Research Results of the Devouring Seed

Cheng Xiao used her privilege as a councilor to make an appointment with Feng Zhoulong in advance, and set off for Yaodu early the next morning.

Xiao wanted to go alone to talk to Feng Zhoulong, the president of the Demon Capital Research Association, without asking anyone to accompany him.

Upon arriving in the Demon Capital, Cheng Xiao headed straight for the Demon Capital Mage Tower.

The Demon Capital Mage Tower, also known as the Southern Magic Association Headquarters, is one of the top high-level magic associations in the entire Kyushu region.

Feng Zhoulong is the leader of the Research Division of the Magic Association of Yaodu, so his status is self-evident.

In the original work, Feng Zhoulong's research on various techniques, with "fusion magic" as the most prominent example, makes him arguably the world's top magic scholar!

If Feng Zhoulong had not been harmed by Su Lu, the entire magical society would have entered a new era based on 'fusion magic'.

Thinking of this, Cheng Xiao secretly resolved to protect such a talented person.

After Cheng Xiao entered the Demon Capital Tower, a mage quickly came out to greet him.

With Cheng Xiao's current status, he is someone that no force dares to underestimate, no matter where he goes.

The welcoming association mage led Cheng Xiao directly to the Research Council located beneath the Demon Capital Tower, where the headquarters of the Demon Capital Magic Association's Research Council was situated.

The research institute occupies a large area underground, which is used to provide underground laboratories for experimental research.

Soon, Cheng Xiao met Feng Zhoulong, who was dressed in a white scholar's coat and had a gentle and approachable demeanor.

"President Feng!" Cheng Xiao said.

"You're too kind, just call me Lao Feng," Feng Zhoulong said with a smile.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Cheng Xiao got straight to the point:

"Old Feng, I've come to see you today because I'd like to discuss a research project with you."

"Oh?" Feng Zhoulong asked with interest.

Cheng Xiao took out the necromancer containing the soul of the lowly craftsman and handed it over.

After Feng Zhoulong took it, he probed into it with his consciousness and sensed the soul of the lowly craftsman.

After Cheng Xiao killed Bei Jiang in New York, he did not annihilate or dissipate Bei Jiang's soul into the world, but preserved it in the Shadow World.

Now, the craftsman's soul has been worn down to the point that he has no will to resist, and he obediently lets Feng Zhoulong investigate.

Feng Zhoulong's consciousness entered the spirit world of the lowly craftsman and, upon sensing the fusion of chaos and shadow in the magic system, his eyes immediately lit up.

This was something beyond his comprehension, and the more beyond comprehension something was, the greater its research value!

After Feng Zhoulong regained consciousness, Cheng Xiao spoke to explain:

"He is the assassin from the Assassin's Guild who tried to assassinate me in New York. I sensed that his soul was special, so I preserved it."

"Through the magic system that combines shadow and chaos, I once tried to develop the power of 'fusion magic' using potions."

"But unfortunately it failed. I came to you this time to verify whether this idea of ​​'fusion magic' can be realized."

After hearing Cheng Xiao's words, Feng Zhoulong's eyes changed completely, as if he were looking at a close friend.

"Yes, we can! We definitely can!" Feng Zhoulong said firmly.

"Since the fusion magic system exists, it must be possible to achieve 'fusion magic,' but it will take a certain amount of time and suitable resources to create it."

After hesitating for a long time, Feng Zhoulong finally asked:

"Brother Cheng Xiao, can I have this soul? I can exchange it for something you need!"

Cheng Xiao waved his hand:

"It comes with the intention of creating its inherent value. However, I do have another research topic that interests me."

"Speak freely!"

"Eat the Seed!"

"."

Feng Zhoulong was taken aback when Cheng Xiao mentioned this research.

Feng Zhoulong published his theory on seed-eating research a long time ago and was confident enough to claim that he could create it.

Unfortunately, the cost of devouring seeds is too high; the value of creating just one devouring seed is enough to directly acquire a Celestial Seed.

Anyone with a sound mind wouldn't take such a big risk to invest in research for Feng Zhoulong.

Over time, the research on seed devouring was not successfully developed, but Feng Zhoulong did not give up on it.

Although the cost of Devouring Seeds is extremely high, even ordinary super-level mages cannot afford it, but one must know how terrifying a Devouring Seed can be when it grows up.

First of all, the main material for making the Seed is the nanocrystal, which is a growing container, meaning that the Seed can grow indefinitely.

It's no problem for a seed to grow from a spirit seed to a soul seed, or even a celestial seed or a great celestial seed!

Secondly, each stage of the Seed Devouring process produces an additional effect, and the Heavenly Seed has three layers of additional effects!

The secondary effect is achieved through the continuous consumption of elements, thereby evolving and retaining the most powerful effect.

Generally, only the best elemental species will have additional effects.

However, the Devourer that grows to the Celestial Seed level has an exaggerated triple effect, and can even advance to the true Great Celestial Seed level by continuously devouring!

This is what makes the Devourer Seed so special: a fully grown Devourer Seed can significantly boost the combat power of a high-level mage by several levels.

"Brother Cheng Xiao, do you want to know about the research on Seed Eaters?" Feng Zhoulong asked.

Cheng Xiao nodded:

"I have already entered the super-level realm, and natural seeds are hard to find. I can only place my hopes on the Devouring Seed. Although I don't have a Nano Crystal, there may be some special solutions."

"It seems that Brother Cheng Xiao is also a person who loves research. In that case, I won't be stingy with this insignificant research result," Feng Zhoulong said with a smile.

Although he didn't think Cheng Xiao could complete the Devouring Seed without using the Na Crystal, if Cheng Xiao really could, it would be a great act of kindness.

The sheer gift of Cheng Xiao's humble craftsman soul is enough to warrant no amount of research.

Once 'Fusion Magic' is born, it will be a revolutionary research achievement, enough to shake up the entire world situation.

..............................

Cheng Xiao obtained all the research results of the Devouring Seed as he wished.

I had a very pleasant conversation with Feng Zhoulong during this trip, and the two of us sincerely shared our knowledge and desires.

Cheng Xiao wasn't lying about the point that he didn't use nanocrystals to create the Devourer Seed.

In the original novel, Mo Fan's earth-type celestial seed was personally crafted by Yu Shishi, and it was not stated that it was made by Feng Zhoulong.

Of course, Feng Zhoulong's Seed Devouring Technique also has upgrades and additional effects.

In short, handing over the research findings on phagocytosis to Yu Shishi might give her a way to create phagocytosis without relying on nano-crystals.

Back in Asuka City, it was already late at night.

Cheng Xiao had originally planned to discuss the issue of seed devouring with Yu Shishi the next day, as it was already late.

However, when Yu Shishi heard that Cheng Xiao had returned, she immediately replied that she had some free time.

Cheng Xiao wanted to find a place to talk things over, but Yu Shishi didn't respond and went directly to his door.

The moment Cheng Xiao stepped into the room, he was stunned.

Yu Shishi wore a retro-style sheer nightgown that partially concealed her figure, revealing her slender, tall, and fair body.

Her stunningly beautiful face was flushed, the blush spreading to her delicate earlobes, and her heart was beating at an unprecedented pace.

This was the most nervous and shy night of her life.
