Ex-Machina in Dimensional Travel

Fortunately, Xuer now has a perfect solution, which is a magic he just obtained not long ago.

Golden energy began to condense in the center of the magic circle. In order not to create an overly powerful monster, Xuer chose to directly limit the power limit of the current body.

A few seconds later.

Energy began to gather and take shape, gradually turning into dark red.

To Xiuer's surprise, a huge figure appeared in the center of the magic circle.

roar------!!!

A huge roar resounded throughout the valley, covering the entire area.

Takson, who had just informed the villagers that the dragon had been destroyed, was still thanking him madly.

Everyone heard a terrifying roar coming from afar.

There was a hint of pressure in the voice, and everyone except Takson was frightened by it, looking at the villagers' faces filled with fear.

Takson quickly turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound.

That's the direction we came from. A new monster has appeared?!

After simply settling the villagers, Takson hurriedly ran in the direction he came from.

The space channel did not open, and he immediately realized that something was wrong. Could it be that the teacher had to face the unknown monster in person!

This sound is too scary. What kind of monster has appeared?

Taksen was moving at high speed on the mountain, and as he got closer to his destination, he saw it.

In the distance, there is a tall figure standing there. Its appearance cannot be seen clearly, but just by looking at it from a distance, one can feel the strong pressure it brings to people.

What is that...

At this moment, there was only one thought left in Tuxon's mind...

......

Chapter 40: Monster Creation - Black Dragon

"[Surprised] This is beyond my expectation."

Xiuer sighed as he looked at the huge monster in front of him.

The dragon-shaped monster stood proudly, and the black scales on its body that exuded an ominous aura were all inverse scales, and the layers of inverted scales formed a hard inverse shell that could block any attack and tear apart anything it touched.

There is a pair of huge, reverse-curved horns on its head that point straight into the sky. They are so hard that, in Xuel's opinion, they can easily pierce through the rock wall and cut any target in its path.

A closer look reveals that this pair of giant horns is actually made up of a large number of small horns overlapping each other.

The well-developed claws and strong limbs, and the tail covered with scales and bone spurs are even more captivating, as if a slight wave can sweep away all obstacles.

There are also wings that are extremely huge, like the source of darkness in the world, but within them there is a hint of light that covers the sky and the sun.

This is Xiuer's conclusion based on the close-up scan results and his inner feelings.

【Black Dragon】

This is the monster that Shul created when he used [Monster Creation] based on a monster from a game he played in his previous life.

His appearance, personality, and abilities are all the same as the original, except that his strength depends on the "magic power" given by Shuul.

However, due to the nature of magic, no matter how much this monster resembles the original, it is still just a "monster".

Looking at the giant dragon in front of him, Xuer couldn't help but admire the magic of this world.

He was actually able to create the monster he imagined in the form of a "monster".

Its body, which was tens of meters long, made Xuul standing in front of it look as small as an ant.

The surrounding environment has been greatly changed due to the unstable elemental energies in the Black Dragon's body, which have gathered at the tip of its reverse scale and then spread to the surrounding environment. As a result, the environment in this area has also undergone major changes.

Flames appeared everywhere, intense heat swept across the entire valley, and violent gusts of wind suddenly appeared, blowing up a large amount of debris.

What was strange was that, in addition to raging fire and strong winds, the area was also hit by deafening thunder and bitingly cold blizzards.

It seems that the Black Dragon, which had just [arrived], had already begun to passively transform this valley into its [divine domain].

At this moment, Xuul, standing in front of the Black Dragon, was feeling the environment ravaged by natural disasters without any protection.

"Data analysis completed. Compared to the original, the restoration degree is 80%."

"Due to the active reduction of the power limit during casting, the strength of the individual [Black Dragon] did not reach the original expectation."

"It can be inferred that a single Black Dragon will pose a serious threat to the creatures of this world."

In the world view of that game, the Black Dragon has a status similar to that of a god, and its harm to the ecological environment can be described as extremely severe.

However, the original Black Dragon, knowing its own passive ability, will specifically choose an area with sparse creatures and stay there, rarely going out, so the damage it causes is actually not that great. For the sake of ecological balance, it will even take the initiative to kill factors that may cause chaos.

But the one created by Xuer is essentially just a replica of the monster created by magic, and it does not have the harmless character of the original. Naturally, the monster falls within the judgment range of his [Demon Control Magic].

The dragon's bright red vertical pupils stared intently at the tiny figure in front of it, its eyes full of curiosity about this existence.

Because when creating it, Xuer gave it a complete setting through sufficient information in the database, resulting in the monster that should have only the intention of killing to also have a certain [heart] and [wisdom].

And because of this, the Black Dragon in front of him felt curious about the creator in front of him.

Because in the false memories given by Xuel, it had never seen this kind of strange life form.

But Xiuer has decided to do something.

After all, if they wait any longer, the surrounding environment will completely turn into the [Divine Domain] of the Black Dragon, an ecological environment where only the Black Dragon itself can survive.

If left unchecked, the ecological environment of this world will suffer a devastating blow, but fortunately, Xuul does have a way to save the situation.

Moreover, this was a monster created by his own hands, so he should be the one to deal with the aftermath.

Speaking of which, why didn't Shuul try to create a [Dragon Spirit] that plays the game of life?

That was because before casting the spell, he subconsciously began to calculate the probability of whether this magic could restore the dragon spirit's settings, and then came to the conclusion that it was almost impossible.

Although the world of magic is a world of imagination, due to his rationality, Shuul does not believe that this magic can restore the Dragon Race, and therefore, he is unable to create the [Dragon Race].

"—【Opening the Code】—【True Code】—【Monster Control】—"

Putting aside thoughts about other things, the most urgent situation at the moment is to quickly stop this black dragon created by him.

However, there is a delay before casting the spell, and the Black Dragon immediately sensed what the other party was about to do, and flames had already condensed in its mouth.

Although Xuer's expression never changed, nor did he say anything, and his current actions seemed non-threatening, the monster's beast instinct had already begun to sound an alarm.

Blazing flames burst out from the dragon's mouth. The large-scale flames lasted for more than ten seconds, burning everything in front of it to ashes, except for the golden [ball].

There was also a look of "surprise" in its eyes, but unfortunately this attack was its first and only chance to attack.

The flames dissipated, and without giving the Black Dragon time to launch its next attack, a huge golden magic circle appeared under the dragon's feet, completely framing it.

After all, it is essentially just a [monster] with only a form. Even if its abilities and habits are 80% restored, it is not the original version in the game. When faced with this unexpected event, the monster, which already has a low IQ, finally became confused.

And this chaos is the sign of the beginning of [Monster Control].

......

----

......

When Taksen felt the valley before, everything around him was no longer the same as before.

Blazing heat and deep cold strangely appeared here at the same time, and the surrounding terrain also changed drastically for unknown reasons.

The only thing that remains unchanged is that my teacher, Xu Er, is still there intact.

However, except for the ground beneath his feet that was intact, the lava nearby that had melted due to the high temperature indicated that he had just been attacked by someone or a monster.

Lava, ice, strange winds in the air, the burning on the ground that was different from fire, the burnt smell that only appeared when struck by lightning, and the raging jets of flames that were seen on the way here.

Tuxen's expression became very solemn.

I had just seen a huge figure that brought fear to people's hearts, and the terrifying roar before was not an illusion.

So, where did the monster go?

When this doubt arose in his mind, Takson subconsciously looked at Xuul who was standing on the only intact piece of land in the lava, and some guesses came to his mind.

Forget it, these are not important. Let’s go and see if the teacher is okay first.

"Teacher! Are you okay?!"

"[Answer] Takson, my body has not suffered any damage, and the verdict is that I am fine."

Xuul turned around and responded to Takson's words very calmly, and the latter also discovered that the other party was holding an unknown golden sphere in his hand that was only the size of Xuul's palm.

But he didn't care that much.

"I'm glad you're okay, huh!"

Takson wiped away the cold sweat from his forehead caused by worry. There was no way. The breath of the giant monster just now gave him a very dangerous feeling.

It made him forget his teacher's strength and subconsciously began to worry about Xiuer's safety.

After confirming that there was indeed nothing wrong with Xuer, Takson's worries were reduced a lot, but there was one more important thing.

"Teacher, what was that monster just now?!"

Without any reserve, unlike usual, this time Takson even put his hands on Shule's shoulders.

That look seemed to be saying that if Xiuer didn't explain the matter clearly today, he would pester the other party about it every day.

Facing those eyes as calm as dead water, Takson did not retreat at all.

"Teacher, please tell me, I know there are some things I don't need to know, but this time, can you please explain everything to me."

He knew that his teacher would choose to keep silent about certain things when he felt that there was no need for him to know.

But no matter what time, as long as he asked, the other party would answer truthfully, just like this time.

Faced with Takson's doubts, Xiuer did not choose to continue hiding it this time, because he has always been like this. When dealing with Takson, he would not answer any questions, but would answer any questions.

So he spoke.

......

One minute later.

After Xuer's simple and easy-to-understand summary, Takson finally understood the reason why the terrifying figure suddenly appeared.

"I didn't expect that there is such magic in this world."

Recalling the stories told by the teacher, Takson's impression of magic changed again.

"Teacher, could this magic book be written by a hateful demon?"

"【Refutation】Based on the intelligence we have obtained, it is unlikely that demons would engage in such behavior."

"Is that so? Then what was the mindset of the creator of this magic?"

"[Speculation] Regarding the individual's purpose, the probability of "interest" is 95.7%. This is exactly the logic behind the magician's behavior."

"You created this malicious magic just for fun? You're such a lunatic."

Takson looked up at the blue sky, recalling the magic he had just learned, and sighed subconsciously.

"[Definitely] Magicians are either geniuses or madmen."

"Huh? I didn't expect you to view magicians this way, Sensei."

Glancing at his apprentice's expression, Xiuer immediately understood what he had misunderstood.

"[Additional] This is a judgment made for powerful magicians. Ordinary individuals still fall within the normal psychological range."

Now, they have left the valley area which has been completely changed beyond recognition.

That area was in a semi-transformed state because of Xiuer's timely intervention.

Fortunately, because of the previous dragon, not many creatures lived in that area, and the damage caused by the Black Dragon did not expand.

It's just possible that in the future, some horror legends will be passed down in this place.

The surrounding villages all heard the terrifying roar, and the unfinished [Divine Realm] left in the valley would become the main material for the rise of legends in the future.
