Just imagining the idea that every card apprentice in this world would be equipped with my VR-Cocoon card gave me chills. This was the final milestone I had to achieve in my quest to create an intelligence network superior to the Supreme Leader’s Incarnations, Matron’s Paw clan, and the Emissary of Light’s Fanatics. 

To meet this milestone, I have already created a fun fully immersive VR-Universe with highly interactive and social NPCs. Now all that remained was an F-rank VR-Cocoon card which was affordable for everyone, the lowest possible card rate, and a few passive card effects that made this card attractive enough for the Card apprentices to keep it equipped even when they do not plan to visit the VR-Universe. 

When I began this project, I thought I had the VR-Cocoon card under wraps and would struggle with the creation of VR-City which can hold a hundred million consciousnesses. But my worries were misplaced. Thanks to the generosity of the Devil Merchant Code I was able to create a functioning VR-Universe capable of holding trillions of consciousnesses for a cheap price instead was having of struggling with the creation of the VR-Cocoon card as with the new features of the VR-Universe the old VR-Cocoon card recipe had to be scrapped create a new from scratch with two checkpoints in mind.

After wrecking my brain for a long time, I finally came up with a new VR-Cocoon card thanks to the Myriad Realm Race Records which pointed me towards the perfect ingredient for my new VR-Cocoon card recipe, F-rank Diamond Slime’s core and slime, and F-rank Dream Gum.

F-rank Diamond Slime traps its prey in its slime body and before the prey can break away the Diamond Slime’s slime gets solidified, turning into a crystal, hence the name Diamond Slime. Encased prey within the crystalized Slime slowly gets digested by the Slime. The crystallization of the Slime’s body was not just used to trap the prey but also to defend against predators. The Diamond Slime’s body breathes in the surrounding soul energy and refines it for itself. 

F-rank Gum Trents, are a species of peaceful sentient trees that discharge the F-rank Dream gum on their wounds. So that the predator attacking them gets infected by the Dream gum, which will send the predator’s body into a deep hibernation by separating their consciousness from their body. By the time the predator figures out a way to return its consciousness to its body and wake up from deep hibernation, the Gum Trents would have already fled the scene. 

Apart from their abilities, the reason I chose these three ingredients was that they were very cheap and abundantly available in the devil merchant code. Having spent one devil-grade ingredient for hosting my Personal Realm Network and another thirty devil-grade ingredients for the creation of the fully immersive VR-Universe I was left with 19 devil-grade ingredients from my original 50 devil-grade ingredients.

Unable to find any devil/demon merchant selling Common Cores, I spent all 19 of the devil-grade ingredients to acquire Diamond Slime Core, Diamond Slime’s Slime, and Gum Trent’s Dream Gum in a ratio of 1:3:2.

As I would require one Diamond slime core with three parts of Diamond slime’s slime and two parts of Gum Trent’s dream Gum to create the new F-rank VR-Cocoon card. This was the most efficient card recipe the hive AI had come up with after running numerous simulations. 

19 devil-grade ingredients worth of F-rank ingredients, the order was so huge, that I could not individually visit all the Demon/Devil merchants to get that amount of the ingredients and also I only had 19 devil-grade ingredients I couldn’t split them to pay with each devil/demon merchants. so I had to recruit the help of devil merchant code, which would take my 19 devil-grade ingredients and buy equal amounts of F-rank ingredients from the other devil/demon merchants using the regular resources it has stored. 

Acquiring the ingredients, I ordered my three mutated soul clones to set up the card creation array formation for the new VR-Card recipe specified by the Hive AI. While I got out of the Seed World and headed out of the room to find Colton, the head butler, standing by the door. 

Seeing me appear, Colton remained motionless and asked, “How may I help, Sir?” 

“I need ten million common cores, arrange them for asap,” 19 devil-grade ingredients had brought me enough F-rank ingredients to create ten million cards so I ordered ten million common cores for the creation of these cards.

“Ten million common cores and anything else, sir?” Colton replied expressionlessly however his eyes could not hide his surprise having learned that the boy wanted ten million common cores. 

Colton was assigned to keep tabs on the boy so he knew that the boy would be creating VR-Cocoon cards for the auction to be held in two days. So when the boy asked him to get ten million common cores, he could not help but wonder if the boy planned to use the ten million common cores to create ten million cards for the auction. Not to forget the 2 days time limit. 

“Nothing else, just ten million common cores,” I ordered Calton. 

“I will arrange them right away,” Colton agreed to the boy’s demand without asking any questions because he was ordered by Ann to help the boy in every way possible. 

But Colton was curious, wondering what the boy was planning to do with ten million common cores when he did not order a single ingredient. Reluctantly suppressing his curiosity, Colton left to get the boy the ten million common cores he demanded, bound by Ann’s orders. 

Seeing Colton leave to get me the common cores I wanted, I walked back into the bedroom and got comfortable. While waiting for Colton to arrive with cores, I summoned my grimoire and accessed the grimoire network to check the hy of my VR-Cocoon card VR-City.
