Therefore, Life Alchemy, in its original text, has detailed explanations regarding the fusion and alchemy of different lives.
When performing alchemy, it is best to choose magical powers that are complementary and do not conflict with each other.
Among them, fusion alchemy of the same attribute is the lowest risk and highest success rate.
If one insists on performing fusion alchemy of lives with different magical attributes, there will be a great risk of failure.
Moreover, the additional consumption during the process will be very large, and three auxiliary conditions are required.
1. A huge amount of life force to ensure that the body does not collapse during the fusion process, and to increase the physical strength of the alchemized creature.
2. A huge amount of soul and mental power to forcibly fuse the souls together, ensuring that the souls do not dissipate, and to use the power of the soul and mental power to stabilize the body and prevent its collapse.
3. A huge amount of attribute-less magic power to reshape the magic crystal of the life form, harmonize the different magical attributes within the magic crystal, and then, after achieving balance and stability, merge them together.
The evolution of the Fire Crown Treant involved absorbing another Brambleback and a War Ancient Tree.
Both are plant-type Magical Beasts, and their magic power had no rejection reaction, so the degree of evolution was the highest.
The Blue Buff was a two-by-two fusion, plus some earth-attribute Magical Beasts and a dragon scale magic-sealing stone.
All were earth-attribute.
The Red and Blue Warriors, not to mention, had nothing else besides the magic-sealing stone.
The slightly more troublesome one was the Shadow Worgen.
Raven, Undead Magic + Dark Magic.
Night Wolf, Dark Magic.
Swallowing Snake, Physical Magic + Dark Magic.
Chameleon Lizard, Plant Magic.
Blood-drinking Bat, Sound Magic + Blood Magic.
It seemed that the fused magic attributes were quite mixed, but the Shadow Worgen's evolution process was very smooth.
Because these magics had no conflict with each other.
Among them, Dark Magic, Blood Magic, and Undead Magic are extremely close in terms of magic attributes.
That's why the Shadow Worgen's strength could directly reach A-rank after evolution.
If Ezreal wants to ensure a smooth evolutionary path for his Summoned Beasts, the safest option is to absorb life forms with the same attributes as the existing Summoned Beasts.
The Deadwood Demon, Lalabay, appeared in the original anime.
And, the Thorn Demon, Mard Geer, who appeared in the Tartaros arc.
Both of these guys are powerful and possess plant attributes.
They are very suitable for the Fire Crown Treant's evolution.
However, Mard Geer appeared too late, and with Zeref present, he would be difficult to deal with.
The only one Ezreal can conveniently obtain is Lalabay.
The Dark Guild Eisenwald is generally not strong; besides its leader Erigor, everyone else is cannon fodder.
When the main storyline begins, Ezreal alone can wipe them out.
"Eisenwald, no hurry. Let them go find Lalabay first; we'll talk about it in two years," Ezreal thought for a moment, muttering to himself.
"Next, I still need to deal with Deliora first, before he gets frozen to death by Absolute Zero in two years."
...The next morning.
Minodal City.
This is the closest large city to the Skull Gang's stronghold.
It's said to be the closest, but it's still over four hundred kilometers away.
Ezreal rode the Shadow Worgen for a full hour before arriving.
The Magic Council's branch is in the city center.
An ancient and grand building, made of white marble, resembling a temple, stands at the end of the main street in the city center, particularly conspicuous.
Two guards, holding long spears and wearing iron swords at their waists, clad in silver-white heavy armor, added a sense of solemnity and majesty to the building.
"Quite impressive, isn't it?" Ezreal looked at the Magic Council's office building and thought, as expected of the head of the magic world, this office building is built like a temple.
If there were such a building on Earth, those old men and women who fall for TV commercials would be kowtowing here every day.
Ezreal stood in front of the office building; he was here to report.
The Magic Council has always maintained a policy of completely eradicating Dark Guilds.
As soon as they receive news of a Dark Guild, they immediately dispatch troops to suppress it.
If they can't defeat it, they will call on some official Guilds to help.
After the battle, rewards and honors will be given based on contributions.
Overall, the Magic Council is actually a very conscientious and responsible organization for maintaining peace.
As for why the Council always targeted Fairy Tail in the original anime, there's a reason for that too.
When watching the anime, everyone identifies with the protagonist group's perspective, and what they feel and see is more about the bonds between the protagonist group and their fight against evil forces.
However, if one adopts an outsider's perspective, or an ordinary person's perspective, one can see completely different things.
Fairy Tail is indeed very good at causing trouble, and Ezreal strongly agrees with this.
Many people cause some extra damage or have some negative impacts when carrying out Delegation missions.
Taking Natsu as an example, every mission he undertakes is related to combat.
However, he often fights recklessly, causing widespread destruction.
In urban areas where ordinary people live, he releases powerful magic, destroys a large number of buildings, and even affects innocent civilians.
Such incidents are not uncommon.
At the beginning of Fairy Tail, when they fought a human trafficking group, the anime showed Natsu's battle with the fake Salamander, which basically destroyed most of the buildings near the port.
Is doing this really okay?
If Laxus had done it, perhaps a single lightning strike would have been enough to solve it.
Ezreal doesn't like to praise one while disparaging another.
But, Natsu's strength two years later is definitely stronger than now, and he could defeat a second-rate Flame Mage who was also his counter.
There should have been an easier way that wouldn't cause widespread destruction, right?
However, Natsu still chose to fight a big battle with the fake Salamander.
Of course, this was a deliberate portrayal by the anime's original author to showcase the protagonist's personality and abilities.
But if such a thing really happened, how would ordinary people view Natsu and Fairy Tail?
Ezreal has no ill will towards the Magic Council.
No matter when, in a world with extraordinary powers, there needs to be a certain balancing force.
Power itself has no problem; it makes no distinction between good and evil.
But if the person using the power has no moral compass in their heart,
For ordinary people without power, it is a disaster.
An organization like the Magic Council is like the law in real life.
It doesn't necessarily dictate how good people should be, but it dictates that people cannot be endlessly bad.
