MMORPG: Rise of The Dungeon Master.

Grave moved to the gene machine and placed 2 plant gene essences on the left side socket of the gene machine and 2 snake essences on the right side of the socket.

He backed away from the machine and then this time, 4 screen panes came in front of him. Two of them show both snake gene conditions. The third one show the plant essence condition and there was a blank screen in between that had a start button on it.

"Start the gene combination." Grave gave the command.

One arm moved and placed a large glass container at the base of the machine.

Then 4 arms formed and moved to the glass container and attached to the 4 sides of the spherical container. The tip of the gene machine moved down and entered from the top of the container.

Two arms started shining in red shine while the other 2 shone in green.

Slowly, essence started entering the glass container from all 4 arms. Grave focused on the screen in front of his eyes. As he turned.

'Baaam!'

Not even a second passed and the glass container blasted apart. Grave looked at the screen. There were a few calculations, but the period was so small that all of that was useless.

"This won't do." He shook his head.

Not caring about the mess, he walked to the essence corner and picked the 4 same essences, and then walked to the resource pile.

The large quantity of the essence made the experiment more vigorous. He needed to slow it down. He looked at different resources and then walked to the pile and grabbed a pink feather from there and walked back to the gene machine.

Repeating the same process, but this time he placed the pink pixie father in the center sockets of the gene machine.

"Start the experiment." As he gave the command and the golden mana pulse rushed to the gene machine, the feather disintegrated in an instant.

Essences entered from 4 different sides of the glass sphere. But before they could come in contact, the tip of the gene machine released pink energy into the glass container. This energy oscillated around the glass container and the rate of essence movement slows down.

Grave focused on the screen and different calculations and it showed compatibility analyses on the screen. After 10 sec BAAAAM.

The glass container blast apart. Grave had a satisfied look on his face. The result of adding a pixie feather to the experiment had a great impact on the experiment.

"Thank god guild send me so many of them." He mumbled to himself, and then proceed with the third experiment. He changed the snake's essence and this time he add the troll heart to the experiment.

The troll heart provided the regenerative energy. He channelized that energy to the snake essence when the experiment happen and this once again increase the time of the experiment, but now the out of the experiment changed.

Now the snake essence became the overall winner instead of the plant essence. He did many sets of experiments while changing the snake gene essence combinations. All of them had one ultimate result shattered glass all over the gene lab.

He continued doing that and in the 25th experiment; he minimize the researched combination to 10 groups.

After the 25th experiment, Grave added the blue scale to the experiment. The blue mermaid scale had the property of water.

This indirectly strengthened the plant essence, but as it only indirectly affected the plant essence, he reached the first saturation point where the Glass container stooped blasting apart.

This was a major step, but the gene combination still did not have any progress in them.

Grave continued to mess around and in the 40th experiment, he started adding horns of different monsters in the experiment.

Just after the next few experiments after that, the combined product started showing early stability.

But he noticed that many energies were going against one another present in the combined product essences. This made it impossible for the essences to reach higher stability.

The one interesting factor was that the horn with poison energy show some weird results. That fascinated him more.

To deal with more of this, he removed the troll heart from the experiment.

Instead of strengthening the snake's essence, he started trying different poison energy on the plant essence that temporarily weaken them.

In the 80th experiment, he found that mixing different types of poisons had higher stable results than only a single type.

He continued to mix the poison in one experiment after another and then stopped using mermaid scales.

And also stopped using the horns for the poison energy.

Instead, he started adding the plain snake poison directly to the experiment.

The snake poison had a weird property in that it did not affect the snake essence at all, but only affect the plant essences. This made him change from an energy approach where poison first need to convert into mana energy into an environmental approach.

In the environmental approach, he directly added the liquid poison to the jar and the experiment proceed with the poison.

In the 130th experiment, he stopped using pixie feathers, but the glass container once again started to burst again. He did not go back but proceeded to do more experiments.

…

Grave looked at his notes. It was the 170th experiment. He tried everything, but there was nothing seemed to work after removing the pixie feathers.

He had reached the 2nd stage of stability with his experiments. Now he could add a bunch of resources and achieve the 3rd stage of stability which was creating the environment in which the embryo could start forming.

He had solved the mystery of combining snake and plant essence. After this, he could start making these types of monsters. But Grave was not much happy.

Adding any kind of these extra resources would not help in the world seed case. Grave, this time, proceeded with a different approach.

This time he grabbed 3 plant essence and 2 snake essence. "I knew that this was a disastrous approach in terms of the Creation path," Grave mumbled to himself.

Now that he had reached stability with the Creation path, it was time to add other paths.

There was one major problem that Grave had to deal with was the world tree grade.

All his experiments so far were on a normal-grade snake essence + normal-grade plant essence scale.

He just kept staring at all the experiments he had to go through just for this simple one.

"Mothefceker, there were 190 total experiments I have done so far."

He turned the notes and on the page, there was a single line, [1-legend grade plant + normal grade snakes]

He knew that even if he spend an entire era, this thing was impossible to crack with Creation only.

Every evolution path had its limits and the limit of the Creation path was the higher the monster grade was, the more complex the experiment become which needed to decode into small parts while doing many experiments and then combined into one.

Grave stopped thinking and proceed with the experiment. Before the experiment even started, he released a bunch of randomly mixed poison in the container.

The essences from 3 red shiny armed released red essence into the container and they came in contact with the poison. This decrease the shine coming out from them and then the 2 green essences came in contact with the poison that did not affect them.

The plant essences were in a weak state, but the higher number of them could easily counter the attack of 2 snakes' essence.

As the experiment proceeded, there were many time plant essences started coming back to the prime shine. But before they could destroy the snake's essence, Grave released more poison into the glass container. Slowly, the experiment proceed and reached a point when both essences combined. He looked at the stability of the combination and was in a shocked state to find that it was in 2nd stage of stability.

Grave just kept staring at the screen.

"Woohoo!" Grave started shouting.

"It happed, I got it. This is it." He threw the notes at the corner.

"I moterfcking nailed it. Hahaha, that's it." He started shouting and jumping around.

"What happened!" He heard a loud shout but not caring much about that, he went to the glass container and kicked it with so much power that it broke.

Bammmm!

"Stupid master, did you get possessed? Did someone steal your body? Yunyun feels sacred waaa waaaaa."

Grave turned toward the voice, only to find Yunyun wailing there. He looked around in confusion. "Fck" He cursed as he noticed the condition of the hall. There was so much destruction all around him.

He looked at the half-broken glass container in his hand.

"Oops," He dropped it and it smashed onto the ground.

"Waaaa waaa Master went crazy."

"Oh come on Yunyun, I am fine."

"mmm," Yunyun stopped crying and stared at him with vigilance in her eyes.

Grave ignored her and walked to the screen of the gene lab.

"Haha, I reached the highest stability possible, even with this absurd method."

He sighed in relief. This mark the end of all the small decoding experiments of Creative path.

He finally found the missing element of removing the pixie from his experiment.

The good thing was that this method was totally possible within the domain of his major problem with the world tree.

Grave walked to the whiteboard and wrote on it.

[2nd Step: need tonnes of poison with large quantities to weaken the world seed essence and then add a bunch of snake essence to counter the strong plant essence.

How to add proceeded with this is 2.5]

"No more work now." With no delay, he logged out of the game, leaving behind the shocked Yunyun.
