Learning the secret to increasing the multiplying factor of my mutated soul was baptism, I was overwhelmed by joy because I knew what this meant.
Right now I might have 12 consciousnesses but in the future when I advance to higher realms I will have hundreds of thousands of consciousnesses at my disposal. At that time I will be able to create an army of my clones.
Not to forget that multiple consciousnesses signify that my soul energy will be refined multiple times and be multiple times purer than the regular card apprentice in the same realm as me.
This means that when I reach the card emperor or demigod realm my soul energy will be at least a few thousand times more refined and purer than the soul energy of the other card emperors and demigods. With such strong soul energy coursing through my body, I do not think that component card emperors and card demigods will be my match let alone the regular ones.
The joy brought by the change to my mutated soul was so much that it did not bother me that there wasn't much quantitative change to the other original skills of my calamity soul gem.
Also because there was other good news too, that the calamity soul gem had added four new skills and one physique namely, Cursed Bloodline, Blood Curse immunity, Myriad Devil Transformation, Myriad Devil Hex, and the physique Myriad Devil Body. I guess most of my baptism was consumed with making this happen.
The best part about this was that my calamity daughter gems inherited the myriad devil body physique and the skills excluding myriad devil hex. It was a bummer that calamity daughter gems did not inherit the myriad devil hex skill but I was satisfied with what they inherited.
All in all, I had achieved my goal to grow stronger. Right now I was a lot stronger than when I was in the card soldier realm. Not to mention now I had more survival skills up my sleeve compared to before.
Now that I and my calamity daughter gem had myriad devil body physiques and myriad devil transformation skills, the creation of the pseudo calamity soul gems was a lot easier and more efficient than before.
Not to mention this opened up new possibilities and ways for me to use my calamity soul and daughter gems. Increasing my chances of survival against my powerful enemies.
In the seventh basement of a central government secure site, a card semi-demigod patiently kneeled on one knee with his head down before a locked grey metal door.
Thick hot red blood could be seen escaping through the bottom of the metal door, seeing the blood the semi-demigod did not flinch but respectfully waited in front of the door.
The semi-demigod did not have to wait long as soon an androgynous voice sounded from the other side of the door addressing the card semi-demigod, "Come in."
The semi-demigod got up and headed toward the metal door which automatically opened. Waking into the room, the semi-demigod saw a row of human-sized incubators each containing a teenage female body with their face covered by a devil mask.
The semi-demigod was not surprised to see this, nor was he surprised to see that all the teenage female bodies in the incubators resemble each other as if they were all clones of a single person. If not for the numbers inscribed on the devil mask covering their faces it would have been impossible to distinguish one from the other.
"You right, the girl's origin created from Broodnun devil's ingredients fits well with the trinity immortal physique. Together they seem to be forming a stronger variant of the Trinity immortal physique. The girl has already refined 12 clones as part of her physique.
If not for her mental strength limiting her origin card she could have refined thousands of clones as part of her physique by now. Still, she is the greatest success of this project since agent Uri. You have adopted a good daughter," the androgynous voice praised the semi-demigod for having adopted a capable daughter.
The girls in the incubators were none other than Ada Davis and her clones. The semi-demigod was none other than her adoptive father and agent Uri's handler. And for the androgynous voice belonged to their revered master controlling their fates from behind the scenes.
"I am happy that my adoptive daughter could be of use to you master," the semi-demigod was not able to find the source of the androgynous voice even after entering the room, and he did not try to. He just respectfully kept his head down and spoke when spoken to.
Ignoring the semi-demigod's flattery the androgynous voice warned, "This time you better have found everything about the boy this time."
"Yes, Master. I did. I know more about Dalton Wyatt than he, himself, does," the semi-demigod said with great confidence despite knowing that if fails to answer any question about the boy and his origin, his master would not hesitate to kill him.
"Is he the original creator of the VR-Slime card which had the 'soul energy digestion' effect?" asked the being addressed as master by the semi-demigod.
"Yes, Master. The boy is indeed the creator of the card with the 'soul energy digestion' effect. Other than him nobody knows the recipe of the card. Not even the Southern royal family who are sheltering him," the semi-demigod replied. His answer wasn't just some blind claim of what he felt but a thorough research done by his spy network in the Southern capital.
"I see, what about the current whereabouts of the boy?" the master enquired.
"Since the auction, he has holed himself up in the southern royal family's royal guest palace No.01 trying to break through to the card master realm," the semi-demigod answered his master politely. From his answer, it was clear that his spy network wasn't just limited to the southern capital but the southern royal palace itself.
