Chapter 167: Chapter 134: Dale (2)
Then, he placed a specially made enhancing rune at the bottom of the crystal vat, which formed a stable miniature magic array once activated.
This would continuously purify the water and provide an appropriate magic power fluctuation to simulate the magic concentration of the sea siren’s original habitat.
Finally, he carefully transferred the little sea siren into this new home.
The young sea siren, upon entering the crystal vat, seemed to sense a familiar aura.
The previously furrowed little brow gradually relaxed, and the body no longer curled up as before, the tail began to sway slowly.
"It seems the environment is suitable."
Ron nodded with satisfaction, then took out various sea siren food he had just purchased on the way back:
Magic sea algae, illusionary jellyfish fragments, miniature energy pearls... all high-nutrition, high-magic ingredients.
He carefully placed these foods into the crystal vat, eagerly observing the little sea siren’s reaction.
Sure enough, the little sea siren was immediately attracted by the food, cautiously approached, and then began to devour it eagerly.
Its eating speed was astonishing, as if there was a bottomless pit in its stomach, and in no time, it had devoured all the food.
After eating, the little sea siren’s condition improved visibly, its complexion turned slightly ruddy from the original pale, and there was finally a gleam in its eyes.
"The Big Eater talent is indeed well-deserved." Ron murmured to himself, feeling increasingly confident in his choice this time.
Next, he began to prepare for the experiment on the autophagic slime monster.
"Since I’m conducting bloodline modulation research, I must start from the basics."
Ron pondered, opening the bloodline sample collection box he had meticulously prepared for this moment.
Inside were various biological micro tissue samples:
Fire lizard scales, wind fairy feathers, water snake people’s skin flakes, and even some blood samples from himself and Andre.
Dragon species and chimera bloodlines are undoubtedly the best materials for advancement, but now doesn’t seem to be the time to use them.
The first experiment was simple, he took a small piece of fire lizard scale and placed it into the first autophagic slime monster’s container.
The slime monster immediately extended a thin tentacle, rolled the scale into its body.
A moment later, the entire slime monster’s color began to change, from the original colorless semi-transparency to a shade of orange-red, with subtle scale patterns appearing on the surface.

[Current Progress: Extraordinary Recognition (Skilled Level 17/100)]
Ron recorded this change, then conducted a similar test on the second slime monster, but this time he added both fire lizard scales and wind fairy feathers.
The result was somewhat unexpected:
The slime monster’s color became extremely chaotic, with orange-red and light cyan patches appearing alternately, and several irregular bubbles bulging on the surface, clearly in an unstable state.
"Fire element and wind element indeed conflict, this direct hybrid method is obviously unfeasible."
Ron frowned, recording the second experiment’s failure.
The third slime monster was used for a more complex test:
He tried letting the slime monster absorb the skin flakes of the water snake people first, and after it stabilized, added a small dose of fire lizard scale powder.
The result was much better this time:
The slime monster presented a stable blue-green color, with fine scale patterns on the surface.
Only small orange-red spots appeared in certain areas, but the overall structure remained stable.
"Interesting..." Ron mused, quickly recording the result of this experiment:
"It seems that the absorption sequence and ratio of biological components have a decisive impact on the final stability."

[Current Progress: Bloodline Modulation (Beginner 5/50)]
For several consecutive days, Ron focused on these basic experiments, meticulously recording the results and data of countless combinations each day, gradually summarizing some basic rules:
Biological bloodlines with similar attributes are easier to merge, while opposite attributes repel each other fiercely.
Complex bloodlines require slow fusion, attempting to do it all at once often leads to collapse.
Adding a "buffer medium" (such as certain neutral attribute substances) can greatly increase the fusion degree.
The earlier the growth stage of the organism, the higher the success rate of bloodline fusion.
Through intensive experiments on the autophagic slime monster, he gradually mastered some key techniques:
First is "Bloodline Purification": Extracting the most essence part of biological tissues and removing impurities, which can significantly increase the success rate of fusion.
Secondly is the use of "Buffer Medium": Adding neutral attribute material between two repulsive bloodlines can significantly reduce rejection.
Finally is "Directional Guidance": Guiding the bloodline to develop in the expected direction through specific energy fluctuations, rather than allowing it to grow freely.
Mastering these techniques significantly boosted Ron’s bloodline modulation skills, gaining 1-2 experience points almost every day.

"At this rate, I expect to reach Skilled Level within a month."
Ron calculated the time: "Then I’ll study some theoretical knowledge to complete ’Extraordinary Biology’ and meet all the conditions for advancing to the modulator branch direction."
Meanwhile, the little sea siren’s recovery speed also exceeded expectations.
Under Ailan’s meticulous care, she not only overcame malnutrition but also began to exhibit astonishing growth speed.
Ron would feed her a large amount of high-nutrition food regularly every day, almost three times the intake of an ordinary sea siren.
