It's done!?
Even Su Ping was momentarily stunned, staring incredulously at the sword in his hand.
The paper body splicing actually appeared!
This origami skill, which has never appeared in any records, actually appeared?
Su Ping slowly exhaled. He didn't rush to savor this sudden success, but instead used his Eye of Truth to carefully examine the paper sword!
This paper-piece splicing skill is so mysterious; it must be no simple skill.
And that is indeed the case.
The feedback from the Eye of Truth after seeing the paper sword in front of him made Su Ping slightly taken aback.
[Origami Doll (Wild) (3×1 - Paper Sword Form)]
[Attribute: Undead]
Current Level: Common Tier 4
[Racial Potential: Common Tier 10]
[Skills: Paper folding (beginner), Paper splicing (beginner)]
That's all.
However, this feedback caused Su Ping's eyes to narrow slightly again.
Generally speaking, even if the pieces are actually assembled, Su Ping's Eye of Truth should transform into the origami figure's individual form when he sees the paper sword.
However, under the observation of the Eye of Truth, this origami figure actually transformed into the so-called 'Paper Sword Form'!
Has it become a so-called '3×1' state?
In other words, after the paper body was pieced together to merge the origami figure into the paper sword, according to the Eye of Truth, the origami figure was now a single entity, and the three pets had actually become one pet.
Su Ping slowly picked up the sword, and then something even more unexpected happened.
A very blurry face appeared on the blade of the sword.
It is the iconic abstract face of an origami figure.
"Whoosh..."
The sound was meaningless, but Su Ping could sense the excitement in it.
Su Ping was taken aback again.
Compared to the origami figure that is still standing there saying "Aba aba," the fact that it can express its own emotions already demonstrates its special qualities!
In other words, my absurd guess just now was true?!
After the paper body is pieced together, it may even allow the soul of the origami figure to complete the piecing together process.
Therefore, it greatly enhances the origami artist's awareness and self-awareness.
magic!
That's amazing.
In addition, Su Ping quickly noticed other changes as well.
Level change!
These three origami figures are two ordinary level 2 figures and one ordinary level 3 figure, which are not high levels.
However, after the assembly was completed, the three small paper figures that had transformed into the shape of a paper sword were upgraded to the ordinary fourth tier.
The difference isn't huge, but the combat power is definitely stronger than before!
Su Ping could feel the sharpness and pointedness of the paper sword.
Su Ping didn't rush to give any instructions, but instead looked eagerly at this special paper splicing skill.
[Paper Body Assembly (Beginner): One of the core skills exclusive to origami characters, used in conjunction with 'Paper Body Folding'! It can be assembled with other origami characters, and the assembly effect includes leveling up, soul completion and other effects.
Current form: Paper Sword (Normal)
(Note 1: The completion of the paper body assembly has its own judgment. The assembled items must meet the basic rules in order to achieve the assembly effect.)
(Note 2: When contracting a paper doll as a pet, other paper dolls that are splicing paper bodies with the contracted paper doll can also be put into the pet space. During the paper body splicing process, you can choose to apply the feedback power of spiritual enhancement to the contracted paper doll or all the spliced paper dolls!)
(Note 3: After the origami figure is assembled, the corresponding components can be quickly reassembled after disassembly.)
Su Ping had never seen an ordinary racial skill that could be so complex.
Indeed, the maxim in the world of pets is true!
The weaker the pet, the more limitless its potential; the lower the level of the pet, the more diverse its evolution!
This origami, hailed as the shame of the undead class, has been given a perfect new life after simply completing this most basic assembly and acquiring this most basic new racial skill!
There are so many things we can study by piecing this together!
Even with Su Ping's abilities, he was somewhat confident that he might be able to use this ability to create a further evolution of the origami!
After all, with his knowledge of beast taming, he could perceive that the true core skill of the origami doll, the paper body splicing, contained immense potential!
Now, this paper sword formed from just three origami figures has already upgraded the level of these three ordinary origami figures.
In addition, it also possesses some of the abilities of sword-type pets.
So, could it be said that a giant paper giant was created by piecing together thousands of origami figures?
Paper Gundam?
However, Su Ping quickly nipped this conjecture in the bud.
It's not impossible, but there are many difficult problems to solve.
It's not something that can be done right now, at least not now.
First of all, piecing together the paper body is not simply a matter of making an outer shell.
This splicing must meet the corresponding basic rules.
In other words...
This Transformer unit, from the inside out, consists of internal gears and external joints that rotate.
Any small component that needs to be assembled using origami figures requires Su Ping to design the entire piece.
Let alone a giant Gundam.
How many parts does a humanoid robot need?
The paper sword is quite simple, requiring only three parts: the blade, the hilt, and the body.
That's it.
However, the massive body of that Gundam, which requires tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands or millions of origami figures to assemble, would be difficult to replicate in a short time even if Su Ping had ten copies of his brain.
After all, it starts with the parts...
Moreover, Su Ping is not optimistic about the combat effectiveness of paper merging into a human body.
On the contrary, as it is now.
Using simple modifications to create this paper sword, in a sense, allows it to achieve its effect better and more easily.
However, this is just the beginning. In the future, he will reveal the abilities of this origami figure, and countless beast tamers will surely refine it.
As for how to further showcase the effect and power of this splicing, Su Ping had the answer almost immediately.
The matryoshka doll and reinforced origami 'accessories' themselves.
Needless to say, Su Ping focused his main attention on enhancing the accessories.
The accessories themselves are the origami figures that have mastered the art of 'paper body splicing'.
In other words, it enhances the power of the origami figure itself, or even allows the origami figure that has mastered the art of paper assembly to evolve.
That's it!
It seems simple, but the evolution of origami figures is the biggest challenge that has troubled all necromancers.
As mentioned before, the only known evolved form of the origami is the deformed armored paper doll.
After transforming into that armored paper doll, it could no longer fold its paper body, and since the paper body could not be folded, it could not be pieced together. It was indeed a useless evolution.
With this in mind, Su Ping had already made a plan.
Just as Mu Yu, that advanced necromancer, said before.
In any case, let's first enhance the spiritual foundation of origami and elevate its artistic level!
After all, in the theory of breeding, there are no examples of basic pets being able to complete evolution at a low level.
At the very least, they need to approach the limit of their species' potential to complete evolution.
Thinking of this, Su Ping picked up the paper sword, which was probably less than three feet long.
He gently chopped it out.
A clear sword mark appeared on the ground.
That section of bluestone could not prevent it from transforming into a paper sword.
Su Ping smiled.
"disintegration!"
The command was given through telepathic communication.
Before this, these three origami figures would never have understood what this meant. Their souls were too weak, and their self-awareness was just like those insects on Earth in their previous life that only knew how to obey their racial instincts.
However, after they merged, they were able to understand the meaning of the words used for telepathic communication a little better!
Instantly, starting from the sword blade, this time Su Ping didn't need to disassemble it by hand. The hard, paper-like blade slowly softened, like a soft, unfolded blanket falling to the ground.
Then, it changed back to the shape of the origami figure from before.
The sword hilt and the sword core transformed from a paper sword into the origami figure it had been in just three breaths!
'Aba aba…'
Looking at the three origami figures that had returned to their original forms, Su Ping blinked.
He activated the Eye of Truth once again:
Origami Doll (Wild) (Basic Status)
[Attribute: Undead]
[Current Level: Common Tier 2]
[Racial Potential: Common Tier 10]
[Skills: Paper folding (beginner), Paper splicing (beginner)]
Sure enough, it returned to its original state.
Before he could think any further, the Myriad Spirits Catalogue, which had been dormant for a long time, suddenly began to slowly flip through his mind.
Then, the pale origami catalog suddenly lit up, and below the catalog, above the logbook, a special log notification appeared that the origami had never shown before:
[Discover and interact with the origami figure; if the intimacy level meets the requirements, your catalog level experience will increase by 10*3!]
[Discovered and cultivated a special racial skill for origami dolls: Paper Body Assembly, +100 experience points for catalog level!]
[Origami Catalogue Experience Points: 617/500! Experience points meet the catalogue upgrade requirements. Upgrade now?]
Have you gained enough experience?
Su Ping was slightly taken aback, but a smile appeared on his face. That made sense; just discovering Qian Yi was enough to give him 350 experience points.
The 500 experience points required to upgrade the catalog from LV1 to LV2
It's really nothing.
[yes!]
With a thought, the origami figure catalog in front of him resembled the previous Lin Lang.
Amidst the pale imagery of the entire catalog, a touch of green is rendered outwards.
Soon, this touch of green replaced the previous white catalog.
This also represents a successful upgrade to the origami catalog.
At the same time, as Su Ping expected, after upgrading to LV2, the Myriad Spirits Chart gave Su Ping the most direct feedback from the bottom of his heart.
[The 'Origami Doll' catalog has been upgraded to level 2. Original reward obtained: Connection Sharing (Origami Doll)]
[Connection Sharing (Origami Dolls): Based on the ability born from the All-Spirit Catalogue, it allows connection sharing between origami dolls that have reached the required intimacy level and are included in the catalogue. Connected origami dolls share experience in skill training, skill usage, and skill improvement.]
(Note: This effect shares the same number of connections as other catalogs.)
Su Ping breathed a sigh of relief.
In his opinion, the rewards from any other possible moths were not as good as this connection sharing.
The ability to connect and share is so useful, and now there are skills that can be further developed and improved.
The most direct requirements for evolution are one's own realm and skill level.
The splicing of paper bodies is clearly the first requirement for evolution.
With the help of the Origami LV2 catalog, Su Ping was able to feel the closeness between the three origami figures and him.
Then, Su Ping thought for a moment and communicated telepathically with the three origami figures:
"Combine! Form the paper sword shape!"
This time, it wasn't as complicated as before, and Su Ping didn't need to spend most of the day working on it.
The three origami figures immediately and skillfully began their own transformations and changes.
This time, instead of each component having its own specific function, they became corresponding parts, and then automatically completed the assembly and splicing by floating in the air.
From beginning to end, it didn't even last five seconds!
The little paper doll beside it, seeing the changes in its kind, seemed to understand something at once. It blinked, its eyes filled with curiosity and eagerness to try.
Su Ping also glanced at the little paper figure.
The little paper doll is his pet. In the end, the evolution of the origami doll is mainly to serve the little paper doll.
Whether it's combat effectiveness or experimental nature.
Therefore, regardless of the circumstances, the little paper dolls should obviously follow suit.
But what should the paper figures be assembled into?
Clearly, the sword is the best!
Because Su Ping had not forgotten that within the little paper doll was a sword soul born from the combination of the sword intent origin and the soul seed.
That sword spirit has an incredibly powerful effect.
Reaching the pinnacle will grant access to a super-tier skill: Sword Intent!
However, according to the sword spirit of that secret realm, if the little paper doll's body does not evolve, it is impossible to reach that realm, and it will also be unable to fully utilize the origin of this sword intent.
However, there is still a problem in piecing them together!
That is, the little paper figure Qianyi is not an ordinary origami figure!
Instead, it is a mutated origami doll that has merged with a sword spirit.
If I had to pinpoint the biggest difference between it and all other origami figures,
It's not about mutated skills and abilities, but about a soul that can perfectly form self-awareness and cognition without needing to be pieced together!
In this situation, can the paper figure still be pieced together?
A thoughtful look flashed in Su Ping's eyes.
He suddenly realized that, for some reason, the fact that his two pets had both undergone special mutations actually made it much more difficult for him to raise them.
But no matter what, we should give it a try first.
Thinking of this, Su Ping had a sudden thought and looked at the little paper doll Qianyi.
(｀Д):
"Whoa!? (Is it coming!?)"
One hour later.
Senichi broke free from the loose paper sword and transformed into her true form.
It failed.
Su Ping frowned.
Looking at the paper sword formed by the little paper doll and the other two origami dolls, not only the little paper doll Qianyi, but even the other two origami dolls had not yet completed the comprehension and become the three-in-one paper sword state, nor had they comprehended the racial skill Paper Body Assembly.
Sure enough, my guess was right.
The biggest difference between the little paper figure and other origami figures is that, in essence, it has a complete soul.
Paper splicing is not just about piecing together paper bodies; it is also about connecting souls.
With this connection, the paper doll is like a 4090 graphics card being used on an old computer—it's impossible for it to connect successfully.
Even this example is insufficient to describe the gap between the two.
Under Su Ping's watchful gaze, the remaining seven origami figures were reassembled into the shape of a paper sword.
This combination is not a rigid binding.
The three origami figures from before can also be combined with the later origami figures that form the paper sword.
There were absolutely no obstacles.
Clearly, once the origami figure masters the skill of 'paper body splicing' and acquires the 'paper sword form' within that skill, it can perfectly splice together anytime, anywhere.
Ten origami figures can be quickly assembled into three paper swords if desired.
However, the joy brought by such a great discovery slowly faded, and he fell into deep thought because of the new doubts brought about by Qianyi.
Su Ping has now figured it out: if possible, he would never choose a mutated pet for his next pet.
This guy is completely asking for trouble!
Although mutated pets have higher potential, greater upper limits, and even unprecedented, unique evolutionary forms due to their mutations.
But this is damn difficult.
If it weren't for his own cheat code, Su Ping really wouldn't have been confident that he could help Xiao Qing and the paper doll complete their evolution smoothly!
Even now, this problem has undoubtedly stumped him.
Su Ping had great confidence.
If this discovery were made public, it could cause a major upheaval throughout the entire Dragon Kingdom.
A brand new blue ocean of pets is about to emerge.
Its impact may even be greater than that of the Wolves of Ten Thousand Trees!
But he's not a philanthropist!
I'm studying origami to improve my own little paper doll, Qianyi.
It was clear that Su Ping's contemplation was also causing Qian Yi some frustration. The little guy looked at the swords in the distance with a longing expression, which was both amusing and somewhat helpless.
"Alright, alright, even though Qianyi can't transform into a sword, we can still use swords! Paper Sword No. 1, combine!"
Su Ping smiled slightly. He couldn't bear to see the little paper figure struggle for most of the night without any results. With a command, the three paper figures transformed into paper swords in the air and slowly approached Qian Yi.
Qianyi immediately perked up. Such a big sword was much more exciting to wield than the small dagger at her waist!
Instantly, on the soft floor of the basement, the little paper figure Qianyi let out a wail, grasped the paper sword, and slashed fiercely!
A golden light shone on the blade of the paper sword, and at the same time, the paper sword seemed to become faster and sharper in the little paper figure's hand!
The sword spirit of the Fengdu Sword King was right. With the blessing of the original sword intent, Qianyi had an almost innate, instinctive control over the sword.
He can master any sword instantly, and if given the opportunity to learn the corresponding sword techniques, he would probably do so just as quickly.
Unfortunately, Su Ping has not only failed to find a way to activate the 'Sword Soul Mark' within the Thousand Body to obtain the super-level skill 'Sword Intent', but even now, the progress of his research and cultivation is stuck on the little guy.
"Whoa! (Crack!)"
"Whoa! (Stab!)"
"Whoa! (Take it!)"
"..."
"Wow! (This is a true swordsman!)"
"Wow! (The strong don't fall because of temporary setbacks; they only become stronger because of them!)"
The little paper doll's excitement and passion seem to never cease.
As it says, as long as there is time for training, the practice of swordsmanship and the release of golden spear techniques will never stop.
Su Ping rested his chin on his hand, watching Qian Yi practice his swordplay while she spoke of swordsmen, strongmen, masters, and loneliness, all the while thinking of a solution.
Suddenly, Su Ping frowned and watched as the little paper figure practiced swordsmanship on the dummy.
That was a dummy made of high-quality steel that Su Ping had commissioned for hundreds of thousands of yuan.
It has no other use than being sturdy, and clearly, that makes it worth the price.
Even with the Golden Spear Technique's enhancement, the little paper figure's attacks couldn't leave many marks on it.
Looking at Qian Yi, he seemed to have a very special idea.
However, this idea was so vague that Su Ping couldn't quite grasp its essence.
However, the seemingly tireless and never-ending figure of Qianyi before him made the thoughts and images in Su Ping's mind become clearer and clearer.
Then, Su Ping abruptly turned his head to look at the origami figures still standing in place, and gave an order:
"Paper Sword No. 2, Paper Sword No. 3, combine!"
'Whoosh!'
The origami figure's components rapidly changed and combined, transforming once again into two pale paper swords before Su Ping's eyes.
"Qianyi!"
The little paper figure's slashing motion suddenly stopped. Even so, when it stopped, the little paper figure, which was only forty centimeters tall, looked ridiculous holding the paper sword of the same size.
However, Su Ping was clearly too preoccupied to care about any of that at this moment; a renewed flame was burning in his eyes.
Clearly, Su Ping knew he was getting stuck on a rut!
What are paper dolls?!
It is the most special soul born from two Holy Spirit-level resources.
It was the sword spirit with immense potential that allowed the little paper doll to undergo such a mutation.
However, these changes are definitely not over yet!
The goal is to merge and piece together the little paper doll with these ordinary origami figures, who are considered the shame of the undead.
Wouldn't that be making a stupid mistake?
What the little paper doll should do is not to be pieced together with these origami figures, but to be used in a more advanced way!
Inexplicably, Su Ping felt that his ideas aligned with the fighting methods of a large number of origami figures!
The origami figure didn't resemble Xiao Qing or the wolf pack.
Currently, although Xiaoqing has completed the poison-type mutation and gained the effect of the poison flower, it is showing a trend of developing towards the "Descendant of the Tree World" based on the 'Descendant of the Tree World' created by the Wolves of Ten Thousand Trees.
However, Xiaoqing's influence is not indispensable in this process. At least not for now.
However, Qianyi is different!
Compared to other origami figures, Senichi is irreplaceable!
Now, Su Ping wants to see if things are as he thought.
The little paper figure looked at its master.
And now his master had two more swords in his hands!
"A true swordsman can wield more swords, face more complex situations, and encounter more formidable enemies! Qianyi, are you confident you can do it?"
"Whoa? (Two swords?)"
Qianyi lowered her head again, looking at the other sword in her hand.
With this sword, will it be able to wield three swords at the same time?
Qianyi's lips curled up:
Q(`√Q)
The crooked-mouthed swordsman Qianyi murmured softly:
"(Waaah...) Looks like there's finally going to be a challenge..."
Then, in Su Ping's gaze:
Qianyi's expression changed, and it really did change:
'A'
Surprisingly, his poker face returned to its usual expression.
Has this little guy not forgotten that abstract poker face yet?
What Su Ping didn't expect was that this little guy had unknowingly mastered the art of drawing spades!
At this very moment, the little paper figure's face is that of the Ace of Spades!
Is it the swordsman's poker face?
Su Ping narrowed his eyes slightly and involuntarily held his breath.
Then, in Su Ping's gaze.
Then, before Su Ping could react, the little paper figure directly took the two paper swords.
However, the paper sword that was originally there fell to the ground.
Clearly, the little paper figure is too small, already a size smaller than a regular origami figure, while the paper sword is made up of three origami figures, and its blade is longer than that of the little paper figure.
Not to mention being held by both hands at the same time.
However, just as Su Ping was about to speak and retract a paper sword, Qian Yi moved in the next moment!
Without a second thought, he pierced his own chest with a paper sword!
It was stuck straight into the chest. Then, the blade blunted slightly. This three-in-one paper sword seemed to understand Qianyi's thoughts. The blade of the paper sword, which was inserted into the chest, connected and fixed to the chest of the little paper figure.
Su Ping blinked, and then he saw the body pierced by the paper sword instantly solidify. It was as if it and the paper sword that had pierced through it were originally one.
Clearly, this is the racial advantage of origami. Their bodies are made of paper, and any folding of the paper body—in fact, unless the paper body is completely torn—would be a serious injury to an animal-type pet, but for an origami, it wouldn't even be considered an injury.
This time, all three swords were simultaneously wielded by the little paper doll, Qianyi.
The little paper figure, wielding two enormous swords and pierced through the chest by a paper sword, had a completely different aura, even beneath its poker face resembling the Ace of Spades!
Even Su Ping felt as if a current of electricity had shot through him, rushing straight to the top of his head.
Is this still that chattering little paper doll?
Clang!
The clanging of swords, seemingly from nowhere, startled Su Ping and instantly drew his attention to Qian Yi.
The next moment, the blades of the Golden Spear Technique simultaneously lit up on Qianyi's three swords.
This time, the paper doll's fierce sword strike towards the dummy in front of it had a terrifying, dented mark on it!
Before Su Ping could even be surprised, a beam of light burst forth from the little paper figure!
This is the brilliance of skill mastery!
