Ray's eyes flickered with excitement as he surveyed his growing collection of fused monsters. "Huh, great… I've got more to work with now," he whispered to himself, a grin creeping onto his face. "I have two two-star roosters and two one-star female chickens. That's two more monsters waiting to be born."
Without wasting a moment, Ray activated the fusion process.
Combining Two Level Two Star Roosters…
Congratulations! You have obtained a Three Star Rooster!
Congratulations on your fusion! You are rewarded with a Three Star Reward Chest.
"OPEN IT," Ray commanded eagerly.
Congratulations!

Ray barely glanced at the rewards, his focus entirely on the monsters. "Alright, now let's combine those two female chickens."
Combining Two Level One Star Chickens…
Congratulations! You have obtained a Two Star Chicken!
Congratulations on your fusion! You are rewarded with a Two Star Reward Chest.
Feather Kunai ×1, Feather Robe (Three Star) ×1, Feather Cap ×1
"Great," Ray muttered, waving off the reward notifications. His eyes were fixed on his current lineup: a three-star rooster, a two-star chicken, a two-star mouse, and a three-star mouse."Four beasts ready to go… and one useless one-star female mouse stuck in the inventory," he sighed. "Can't fuse it for now."
His gaze lingered on the three-star rooster and the three-star mouse. A wild thought crossed his mind, and a devilish grin spread across his face. "Should I…try to fuse them both? Rooster and mouse…What'll happen if I go for random fusion?"
Ray's eyes gleamed as he navigated the system, recalling the details of the Random Fusion option.
Combines physical and mental traits randomly, resulting in unpredictable mutations, along with the usual cultivation boost.
"Fk it," Ray said, his excitement bubbling over. "I've got more monsters coming anyway, thanks to my hardworking little collector down there. Let's see what we get."
He selected the rooster and mouse, setting them into the Random Fusion slot.His heart thudded in anticipation as he confirmed the process.
!Ding!
Congratulations, Host, for obtaining a Four Star Miceooster after fusion!
Ray's breath hitched as he read the notification. "It worked…Holy shit, it worked!" He laughed, the sound bouncing off the cave walls. The thought of combining two completely different species and getting a successful fusion was exhilarating. His mind raced with possibilities.
Ray didn't wait another second."Summon the new monster!" he ordered, eager to see the result.
Before him, a creature materialized a beast about the size of a large dog. Its black-purple fur glinted under the cave's faint light, a stark contrast to its sharp, angular face, which bore the elongated ears of a mouse.The beast stood on two muscular legs reminiscent of a rooster, its long tail swaying behind it like a predator ready to strike.
Its wings, dark and leathery, folded neatly against its back, while its front limbs ended in small, clawed hands capable of both walking and attacking. Sharp, chicken-like claws tipped its feet, and its mouth was a disturbing hybrid of a beak and sharp rodent teeth.
Ray's eyes widened in awe."What the hell… this thing is a perfect blend," he murmured, pulling up its stats for a closer look.
Name: Miceooster
Mutation Combination: Mouse + Rooster
Cultivation: Four Star
Sex: Male
Mutation Level: Two Stars(Mutation levels categorized from one to five, with five being the ultimate mutation level.)
Skills: Short Flight, Sharp Teeth, Beak, Jet Beak Jump, Stone Rain, Sharp Claw, High Senses, Ultrasonic Communication, Digging Holes, etc.
"Woah… just look at this mutation!" Ray whispered, his voice filled with astonishment. "I don't even care about the skills right now. Man, this is insane. Who would've thought fusion could be this easy?"
He circled the Miceooster, marveling at its grotesque yet majestic form. The possibilities ran wild in his mind."If I can do this with cheap monsters… what about higher-level beasts? Imagine fusing a leviathan with a world serpent or a dragon with a phoenix. It'd be…legendary."
His thoughts swirled with visions of creating monsters that defied logic, breaking the boundaries of cultivation as he knew it. Ray chuckled darkly, a gleam of excitement in his eyes. "This system isn't just powerful it's revolutionary."
He clenched his fists, the adrenaline surging through him."Motherfers, I NEED MOREE MONSTERS!" His laughter echoed through the cavern, a mix of triumph and the thrill of the unknown."HA HA HA!"
Without any hesitation, Ray sent his newly fused Four Star Miceooster and the Two Star Mouse down the boulder, their mission clear not to engage in battle, but to gather more fallen monsters.
"Go," Ray commanded, his voice steady, his gaze sharp."Collect as many as you can."
He settled back atop the boulder, a wave of adrenaline coursing through him. The anticipation of building an army from the remnants of this battlefield sent a thrill through his veins. Imagine, he thought, all these beasts under my command. I could start my own legion right here, right now.
Ray's eyes gleamed with a mix of excitement and ambition.today, he could gather at least a hundred level one monsters, enough to lay the foundation for an army. mAn army that would grow, conquer, and dominate. And the best part? The system had revealed a crucial piece of information: his monsters didn't need food. They could sustain themselves purely on system energy.
Ray chuckled, the realization sinking in. "No feeding, no maintenance…they just keep going."
Not only that, but the system could heal his monsters, even if their limbs were severed or their bodies destroyed provided they weren't completely dead. As long as they made it into the system space before total annihilation, they could be restored to perfect condition within an hour.
"Just an hour to heal from almost anything," Ray mused, tapping his chin. "That's practically nothing."
He watched his beasts below with a sense of pride. Go on, collect them all.
The Miceooster, with its sharp senses and imposing presence, prowled the battlefield, its purple-black fur gleaming under the sparse light filtering through the cave. The Two Star Mouse followed closely, their movements coordinated, efficient. They ignored the ongoing skirmishes between the remaining Chicken Phoenixes and Red-Eye Mice, focusing solely on the dead and dying.
Ray leaned forward, watching as they began their grim collection.The notifications started rolling in.
!Ding!
Congratulations, Host, for obtaining a One Star Rooster!
!Ding!
Congratulations, Host, for obtaining a One Star Mouse!

Congratulations, Host, for obtaining a Three Star Rooster!
The steady stream of rewards kept coming, each notification a reminder of his growing power. Ray smirked, his fingers drumming against the boulder."They're doing all the hard work, and I'm just sitting back, reaping the rewards."
He glanced down at the Miceooster, marveling at how effortlessly it moved, gathering corpses without drawing the attention of the surviving beasts. Its powerful legs and sharp claws made it a formidable creature, yet it moved with the stealth and agility of a predator born from the shadows.
The Two Star Mouse was no less impressive, its smaller frame allowing it to slip through the cracks and crevices of the battlefield, extracting every valuable carcass it could find. Together, they worked like a well-oiled machine, sending the loot directly to Ray's system space.
Ray's mind raced with the potential."This is just the beginning. With enough of these monsters, I won't just have an army I'll have a kingdom."
He leaned back against the boulder, his eyes half-closed, imagining the vast legions he could command. The thought alone was intoxicating. His grin widened as he whispered to himself, "Today, it's chickens and mice. Tomorrow…who knows? Dragons? Leviathans?The possibilities are endless."
The notifications continued to chime, a rhythmic reminder of his growing collection. Ray reveled in it, each chime a step closer to his ultimate vision.
!Ding!
Congratulations, Host, for obtaining a Two Star Chicken!
!Ding!
Congratulations, Host, for obtaining another Two Star Mouse!
The system's efficiency was unmatched. His beasts were returning with higher-level monsters now, proof that the battlefield's chaos was thinning out. Soon, there wouldn't be any left to fight, only those to collect.
Ray's gaze returned to the battlefield. "Let's see how far this can go."
