But perhaps it was because the innate ability "Dragon Repellent" had too strong a repulsion towards dragon attributes, which led to the failure of this reincarnation attempt.
Indeed, judging by normal reincarnation logic, this was definitely a failed reincarnation.
But oddly enough, it wasn't a failure at all for him and the straw man.
"No wonder that Dragon Lady tree wasn't afraid of mental attacks before."
Recalling the time when Bu Bu's "Mysterious Chaotic Dance" was ineffective against the Dragon Lady tree, Li Pu finally got the answer.
Turns out this magical beast not only knew mental attacks but was immune to them itself.
Indeed, an S-level existence is truly unreasonable.
But now, its mental attack and mental defense are in his hands.
And as long as the straw man acquired this "Dragon Lady Protection," it's equivalent to also having mental defense.
This way, during chaotic battles they won't have to worry about being mistakenly injured by Bu Bu's mental attacks, perfect.
No doubt, the fusion of "Dragon Lady Protection" and "Willpower" is indeed the best answer.
The results seen from Li Pu's preview support this.
However, the fusion cost this time is quite high, requiring 150,000 Crystal Coins.
50% more expensive than Bu Bu's fusion of "Mysterious Tail Shake (C)" into "Mysterious Chaotic Dance (A)."
Probably due to the straw man having undergone too many reincarnations, leading to higher strength and skill level.
But fortunately, he can afford it.
Moreover, regarding the skill enhancement he cares most about for the two summoned beasts, it must be "Willpower," as enhancing it once equals obtaining it for both him and the straw man.
After some maneuvers, the skill was further enhanced.
[LV2 Willpower (C→B)]: Immune to Fear/Illusion Technique/Toxin/Mental Attack effects, greatly increased power
"This skill, seems to have bugged out."
After browsing gleefully several times, Li Pu found a minor flaw.
"Dragon Lady Protection" is level A and merely immunes mental attacks.
While "Willpower" is only level B, yet it immunes multiple effects and also increases strength.
A B-level skill being stronger than A-level skills makes it look like it's been exploited like a bug.
But he knows the main reason is his Summoner talent "Friend of Magical Beasts" serves as a dilution effect in skill ranking during fusion.
After all, skill fusion scenarios like this are rare within summoner circles.
It's simply that his summoned beasts are quite unconventional, with B-level skills being stronger than others' A-level skills.
Now that the straw man's reincarnation has been completed, there are still many sacrifice-related items in the storage space.
Seizing the opportunity while he has funds, Li Pu conveniently maximized it again.
The strength is higher than expected, reaching 607, breaking the 600 threshold formally.
But money also vanishes swiftly, yesterday he had just accumulated 450,000 Crystal Coins, now it's down to less than 250,000.
"Next, it's your turn."
[Eat eat?]
When Li Pu looked at Bu Bu, it was innocently munching on carrots while riding on the ugly little wolf.
"Let me check if all the materials are ready."
Walking over to the pile of purchased materials, he began counting them one by one.
"Okay, all types and quantities are complete."
"Let's begin."
Once confirmed, Li Pu first picked up a capsule.
Opening the capsule, something ejected and fell to the ground.
A bright and complex circular formation presented itself.
Unlike the straw man's "1-Turn Plant-Type Reincarnation Array," this time for Bu Bu wasn't "1-Turn Beast-Type Reincarnation Array," but "1-Turn High-Energy Reincarnation Array."
This thing is much more expensive than the market price of 300 for "1-Turn Plant-Type Reincarnation Array," costing a hefty 3,000 Crystal Coins.
The crucial part about the "1-Turn High-Energy Reincarnation Array" is unlike the straw man's "1-Turn Plant-Type Reincarnation Array" which can be reused, Bu Bu can only use it once.
"Let me check the next step."
After setting up the reincarnation array, Li Pu took out the plan handwritten by Long Ren himself.
In the pile of materials, he rummaged out a small purple glass bottle.
Inside the glass bottle was silver crystalline powder as fine as sand.
[Replica Crystal Residue]: Powder collected using a special container before dungeon crystals completely disperse when they reach obsolescence.
Placing the glass bottle at the center of the reincarnation array, Li Pu continued placing the next item.
[Illusionary Mirror Beast Core], [Positive Energy Cluster], [Negative Energy Cluster], [A-389 Composite Igniter], and so on.
A series of materials, according to Long Ren's instructions, were placed in order and position.
"These things are really not cheap."
After placing everything, Li Pu couldn't help but sigh.
A procurement cost of 50,000, buying was all small items, all combined resulted in nearly a dozen.
Anyway, at this step, they are just a step away from reincarnation.
"Alright, let's start then."
Picking up Bu Bu, he carefully stepped over all the materials, reaching the center of the reincarnation array.
Then he took out his usual short knife and gave Bu Bu's little short hand a cut.
[Eat eat eat!]
Bu Bu nearly jumped up on the spot.
But Li Pu calmed it down instantly with a carrot.
Holding Bu Bu's front paw with a small cut, he squeezed its blue glowing blood onto the [Illusionary Mirror Beast Core].
[Eat eat?]
"Come, crush it."
Facing Bu Bu's confusion, Li Pu signaled for it to squash the special glass bottle containing [Replica Crystal Residue].
[Eat eat!]
Bu Bu obediently hopped up and then landed feet down, smashing the bottle into a pulp.
Buzz!
As the [Replica Crystal Residue] spilled out, the reincarnation light array suddenly glowed brightly.
[Straw!]
[Roar?]
Swoosh! x2
Amidst the startled cries of the straw man and the ugly little wolf, both Li Pu and Bu Bu disappeared from the light array.
At the other end, Li Pu and Bu Bu found themselves in an enclosed space different from the outside world.
[Eat eat?]
Bu Bu curiously examined the surroundings.
This enclosed space isn't large, roughly equivalent to the usual arena size.
Six directions—up, down, left, right, front, back—are all pure white light curtains, giving a very clean impression.
A temporary dungeon space, created using [Replica Crystal Residue], established specifically for Bu Bu's reincarnation.
Buzz…
With a buzzing sound effect, an energy body appeared before the one man and one Bu.
[Eat eat eat!]
Bu Bu: Bu Bu!
Bu Bu pointed at the energy body, seeming somewhat excited.
Turns out this energy body is indeed itself.
"Go, finish it off."
Li Pu pointed at the small kangaroo energy body, signaling Bu Bu to attack.
[NO eat!]
Bu Bu: No! Cruel! Cruel!
Bu Bu: Bu Bu won't hit Bu Bu!
Facing the small kangaroo's refusal, Li Pu took out the golden carrot he dug up in Longpo Valley.
[Eat eat eat!]
Bu Bu: Dislike! Dislike!
It's unclear whether it was referring to Li Pu tempting it, or the opposing small kangaroo energy body.
Anyway, Bu Bu pulled out its skill light cluster from its small pouch and began pounding on it.
[Eat eat eat!]
Unexpectedly, the opposing small kangaroo also began mimicking its actions.
Crucially, the opponent really pulled out something too!
Boom!
Two flying small kangaroo silhouettes crossed paths.
[Eat ouch!]
The energy body Bu Bu was kicked to the ground.
[Eat shield!]
While the real Bu Bu raised a golden protection shield, blocking the attack.
"Very good, well done."
At this point, Li Pu sat down to the side.
This battle belongs to Bu Bu's reincarnation fight, he cannot directly intervene.
However, C→C+ level reincarnation only, shouldn't be too difficult.
Although this Bu Bu energy body and Bu Bu have similar moves, Bu Bu's advantage is having a miraculous item while its counterpart doesn't.
[Eat eat eat!]
Sure enough, after a while, Bu Bu raised its little short hand in celebration.
Because it had already defeated the fake version of itself.
"Keep going, you have to defeat ninety-nine more, now you just need eighty more."
[Eat?!]
Li Pu's remark instantly changed its expression directly.
