My Monster Fuses Everything

The Skeletal Corpse not only moved slower, but its attacks on the flesh nest were clearly weaker, far from how it performed against the Half-Fish Monster.

"Stop."

Bai Qilan called Lu Yu to a halt, and he paused in confusion before stopping.

"You go back first."

Su Han told Lu Yu, his gaze flickering slightly, clearly not as calm as he seemed.

Lu Yu immediately recalled his Skeletal Corpse, bid farewell to Su Han, and left the area.

"Have you anticipated what this is all about?"

He looked toward Bai Qilan; she shook her head slightly, her gaze fixed on the flesh nest: "It's just a guess, but now it's even more confirmed."

"The Skeletal Corpse is being suppressed by the flesh nest. Although it's not controlled, its overall strength has weakened a lot."

"Race or rather, kin."

Bai Qilan spoke slowly: "The Skeletal Corpse is a creature created by the flesh nest, a subordinate continuation of its bloodline, even after becoming an Angel Envoy through a contract. Despite having gained independent control, the bloodline remains unchanged—the flesh nest still holds a superior bloodline, and that's the source of the suppression."

"Like cats and mice?"

Bai Qilan shook her head, "It's not the same. Mice are not inherently afraid of cats; it's more about fear of certain characteristics—sounds, images, movements, etc., and it's not entirely hereditary. This is different; these are not inherited but are inherent in the bloodline, with fixed ranks and racial disparities, an unchangeable suppression."

Monsters are not animals; the power they encompass is completely different, resulting in hard-to-understand effects.

Take the Double-tailed Emperor Scorpion, for instance; scorpion species have no concept of a hierarchy, yet the Double-tailed Emperor Scorpion can still dominate the Double-tailed Scorpion.

Similarly, the Spider Monsters, Split-mouth Spiders, Split-mouth Broodmothers, and Split-mouth Worms Su Han encountered before, as well as his Ancient Worm Tree and Tree-born Worms, all follow this pattern.

In their bloodlines, the disparity between the higher and lower ranks is profound.

Su Han somewhat understood, but his eyes suddenly narrowed: "You're saying this has something to do with serums; could it be that mutations induced by monster blood are also influenced by bloodlines?"

"Yes," Bai Qilan nodded, "If an Angel Envoy is more influenced by the serum from a single monster, whether it's the number or quality of injections, it will endow the Angel Envoy with more traits similar to that monster's bloodline. Unless at a level not weaker than the source monster, such suppression will persist.

My Angel Envoy was initially injected with the Half-Fish Monster serum, and there was a slight suppression when facing the fish monster leader, but it disappeared after a breakthrough in strength."

Su Han thought about Bai Qilan's words; the suppression existed, but it didn't seem to be an issue for now.

The purpose of injecting the envoy with the mutating serums was to enhance their strength—should they rise above the source monster or reach the upper limits of their racial rank, then undergo Divine Initiation Ritual fusion and evolution, the influence of the bloodline would likewise be negated.

It seemed that this wasn't a significant problem after all.

Moreover, not all hostile monsters are superior monsters, to say nothing about mixing different serums.

"If serums from different stages are mixed, the influence of the bloodline should be much weakened, right? This shouldn't be a significant issue?"

He asked, looking for confirmation, but Bai Qilan's smile turned even more subtle as she replied with a slight laugh: "For a Contractor, of course, it's not a big deal. But for you, this matter is very important."

She extended her pale hand, holding a vial of crimson injection liquid.

"The fish monster leader serum was actually ready the day before yesterday, but I had a new idea."

She looked at Su Han and said with a light laugh: "What if most of the serums used your Angel Envoy's blood, or if every serum contained a bit of your Angel Envoy's blood? Would all the Contractors' Angel Envoys in the camp then become your kin?"

Madness!

This idea was too mad!

Su Han looked at Bai Qilan in shock; her face wore a faint smile, and she met his gaze without flinching.

He didn't believe that Bai Qilan didn't understand what her plan implied.

While it wouldn't usurp other Contractors' control, if the serums contained blood from Su Han's Angel Envoy, particularly with significant enhancement effects, it would mean any Angel Envoy, when facing Su Han's Angel Envoy, would be suppressed in strength.

Moreover, as his Angel Envoy grew stronger, the suppression would become even more profound.

Unless someone had entirely surpassed him in strength, a collective uprising would be utterly ineffective.

"Your idea is mad."

"But it's very advantageous for you," Bai Qilan's smile broadened slightly: "Not only would you control the enhancement serums, but also form a bloodline suppression. The camp would be as secure as a fortress, and you would be not just a leader, but perhaps a bloodline... king?"

Su Han's Angel Envoy was not only powerful, but Bai Qilan was certain that in terms of bloodline strength, it was stronger than other monsters of the same rank.

After all, Su Han's Angel Envoy had evolved many times.

"My Angel Envoy can't be giving blood every day," Su Han said, shaking his head, but then added: "However, we could give it a try."

"Not every injection serum has to contain your Angel Envoy's blood, just the higher-level rewards would suffice," Bai Qilan suggested slowly: "After accumulating so many contributions, for both the camp and for you, such individuals ought to be relatively significant players."

"Then go ahead with it. When do you need it?"

Su Han had no reason to oppose the plan, one that would elevate his power and rule to a higher tier.

She smiled lightly and responded, "Tonight, I would like to request the first serum."

Su Han was slightly taken aback before breaking into a smile, saying, "Okay, choose one, Ancient Worm Tree or Scorpion Spider Demon."

Bai Qilan came forth to pledge allegiance and, of course, there was no doubt that using the potion made from the blood of Su Han's two Second-order Superior Angel Envoys would be more powerful, but the suppressive power would be even greater.

His Angel Envoys all had regenerative abilities, so drawing a bit of blood would not greatly diminish their strength. With proper control, it was completely feasible.

Bai Qilan answered with a smile, "Scorpion Spider Demon."

Half an hour later, Bai Qilan returned to Villa No. 9 with three large tubes of Scorpion Spider Demon's blood. She was eager to make the Scorpion Spider Demon potion.

Having successfully made the Half-Fish Monster leader potion, she had a good idea of how to refine and make monster potions. This time, she wouldn't need several days; one night would be enough.

After Bai Qilan left, Su Han remained where he was, his gaze falling on the Ancient Worm Tree. He appeared thoughtful and then suddenly smiled.

If the effect of the monster potion could deepen his own Angel Envoys' control over their territory, what about the Contractor who directly formed a contract with the Tree-born Worm?

An affiliate or even a servant species belonging to the Ancient Worm Tree, how great would the repression be?

One must know that the Tree-born Worm wouldn't be gone just because it died; the Ancient Worm Tree could completely consume energy to breed new worms— the real source of troops.

And to take it a step further, if the Ancient Worm Tree underwent Fusion with the Skeletal Corpse Nest, might there be more possibilities in terms of affiliates?

Su Han's thoughts stirred, and the vines wrapped even tighter around the Skeletal Corpse Nest; his spirit concentrated on it.

[Discovery of a viable monster body to Fuse, the Skeletal Corpse Nest. Begin Fusion?]

Fusion

This time, Su Han did not hesitate. He was very much looking forward to the changes this Fusion would bring.

Countless filaments spread from the vines and then touched the Skeletal Corpse Nest, slowly merging its flesh and blood.

The Skeletal Corpse Nest let out a terrified roar, almost hysterical, but to no avail.

It could only watch helplessly as its body disappeared; resistance was of no use against the Ancient Worm Tree.

As time ticked by, an hour passed, and the entire Skeletal Corpse Nest had vanished.

Fusion in progress: Skeletal Corpse Nest 23%

Su Han looked at the panel and furrowed his brows slightly, "Only 23%? Looks like I'm in for an all-nighter."

His Book of Blood Spirit glowed red, and the Ancient Worm Tree was soon summoned into the pages of the book.

He leaped up, landing on the back of the Scorpion Spider Demon, and then guided the demon to stride out of the camp, disappearing into the evening mist.

After leaving the Shanhu Villa District, Su Han headed straight to a nearby large residential area—Nanshan Residential District.

Bursting into the vicinity of the residential district, the Ancient Worm Tree was summoned, illuminating the whole district and the streets outside with the Radiance of the Lamp Tree.

In the fog, countless monsters were exposed to the light, and the dazzling radiance attracted even more monsters. They charged bravely, besieging the Ancient Worm Tree.

But the Scorpion Spider Demon charged out, clad in Floating Pagoda Black Armor and plunged into the throng of monsters, beginning the massacre.

The Ancient Worm Tree's vines kept spreading, and beneath its roots, a hundred Tree-born Worms burrowed underground to begin their killing and hunting.

Monsters roared on and off, and the entire area became akin to a slaughterhouse. Blood soaked the ground and was gradually absorbed by the vines of the Ancient Worm Tree.

As it fought, it fused; the powerful Man-eating Vine seized monsters and bit into them, swallowing voraciously, replenishing its own energy.

A thousand monsters, including many of First-level Intermediate and even First Order Upper Grade were slain, which was no small number.

The fighting drained Su Han's physical strength and energy, as well as that of the Battle Scorpion Spider Demon and the Ancient Worm Tree.

However, they were all able to endure. Their strong regenerative powers played their role at this time.

Not only did the Ancient Worm Tree and Scorpion Spider Demon dominate the slaughter, but Su Han also took up his Pu knives, clad in Black Armor, slaughtering the lives of monsters.

For four hours, nearly two thousand monsters were slaughtered near the Nanshan Residential District, with the blood-stained ground giving off an overwhelmingly pungent stench.

The Fusion Degree of the Skeletal Corpse Nest grew gradually, and finally, in the latter part of the night, no more monsters dared to approach. The remaining scarce monsters and the corpses on the ground slowly dissolved.

A sense of exhaustion from his body surged up as the battle ended, but Su Han revealed a pleased smile, feeling no fatigue at all.

Because the Fusion Degree was finally full.
