For populating Navark city, with let's say a million people will be good enough.
Hmm... I can just have my magicules rampage that will create monsters, name them and fit them with Manas so that they eventually develop intelligence, and that wouldn't take long.
BUT! That will be boring!
Instead of monsters, I guess I should try creating human-like species.
Hmmm....
First, I ate some of my own slime cells and had them regenerate infinitely inside my stomach.
Then using Tiamat, I removed monster properties from them while ensuring that they stay stable. Thankfully, there was no need to worry at all.
Let's call them purified slime cells.
Now then...
[Human blueprint generated.]
Nexis produced the blueprint pf a Human since she had analysed humans I had eaten.
Let's see...
In the bone cells, let's fuse Magisteel.
Replace nervous system with slime celled neurons and brain, making them carry signals on the basis of light instead of electricity. Ensure total internal reflection in them so that light doesn't escape a neuron.
Let's add magic circuits made of Orichalcum as well.
Hmmm...
Let's add the relevant infons of Greater Light Elemental Spirit. Now, they naturally have Hero Egg as a race trait.
Add a bit of soul energy, and...
[Report: Standardized blank Manas created from my structure.]
They wouldn't become as powerful as you, right?
[It will take naming for them to develop a proper ego, and actually hatching their Hero egg to become decent enough. They wouldn't be able to manipulate infons anytime soon.]
I see.
Anyway, in their soul, I put the standardized Manas as well so that they develop intelligence much faster.
Hmm... Let's see... What characteristic should make them look different than humans, like Elves' pointed ears?
Nose? Nah. Lets keep it as it is.
Eyes?
Just colour wouldn't be as unique. Ah! Let's make the sclera black. And the eyes can be anything but gold or blue.
And with the light that will get absorbed by the back sclera, let's shift that to photosynthesis.
Add black chlorophyll to hair as well. With photosynthesis, the sugar will directly reach their brain.
And therefore, let's also give Thermal Resistance, so that excessive heat wouldn't affect them.
And with human-like reproduction, they wouldn't become weaker on doing it.
Let's not make them any more stronger than this.
For this species, who will follow the evolutionary path like Humans, of becoming Saints and Heroes, let's name it Rumans.
'Alright Nexis, do your job.'
[Find tuning adjustments... Expected lifespan: 300 years if unevolved.]
Well, that's fine.
The first custom species I built for filling my city is complete.
With my infinitely growing soul energy contained in Abyss God Naraka so that I don't break apart, giving these new ones some of it is no big deal.
[Creation of Rumans completed.]
All of this happened while my hand was raised, without embarrassing myself due to Thought Acceleration.
From Naraka, the very first set of Ruman appeared before my underlings.
7 Rumans of 7 coloured eyes and hair pigmentation.
My first ever proper creation of life.
Hehehe! I am practically a god!
