Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord Chapter 178 New Ability: Hero Fusion

178 New Ability: Hero Fusion
‘But who else could use the upgrade stones if not Xu Yuan?’ wondered Su Wan.
No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t figure it out. In her territory, only two people had the authority to make decisions about the territory. It was either her or Xu Yuan.
Usually, an Initial Hero did not have such authority as the Lord. But Su Wan had allowed it to gain his trust. In fact, sometimes Xu Yuan seemed to have more authority than her.
However, the issue was: If Xu Yuan hadn’t used the building upgrade stones, who had? Who could bypass the rules of the Overlord Plane and play this kind of trick?
“Let’s check it out first!”
Su Wan willed her consciousness to the place where the change was happening. The throne room in the Dark Castle.
The Dark Castle had undergone significant change, especially at the center. The Castle had grown. It was more majestic than ever before. The throne was entirely made of bones now, with will-o’-wisps flickering at the base. It looked ferocious and horrifyingly beautiful.
“The Dark Castle has upgraded once again?” mumbled Su Wan in surprise. “There is a new ability to turn the non-dark troops to Dark-Type?”
She was speechless. ‘Why does this ability sound similar to Xu Yuan’s ability?’
For a long time, Su Wan had been thinking about how all her troops had similar attributes. It would be easy for the enemies to figure out a way to defeat them. Therefore, Su Wan had been thinking of creating troops with different elemental attributes.
It hadn’t been easy to turn the Dwarven Army. But now, she had a skill that could turn the Dwarven Army into Dark-Types.
“Really? The dwarves must be lying to me,” said Su Wan. “This really looks like Xu Yuan is behind it all.”
Su Wan seriously suspected that this Dark Castle was upgraded by Xu Yuan again. That was why the ability was similar to his.
Su Wan was fuming. She saw the attribute panel. According to the information in there, only the Dwarven Army could be turned to Dark-Types for now.
[The Dwarven Army can be turned to Dark-Types.]
There was another ability highlighted.
[Dark Forging: can be used to forge dark weapons.]
Su Wan was suddenly interested in it. She wondered what the difference between ordinary forging done by the dwarves and this new Dark Forging ability was.
She read further to find out that Dark Forging could be used with blood, corpses, bones, and other materials to forge dark weapons of strange powers!
Su Wan thought it wasn’t very special, after all. ‘Forget it. I need to check other buildings first.’
Su Wan checked and found that two places in the territory had been upgraded once again. One was the Dark Castle that she had chosen to upgrade before.
The other one was the Dark Arena. She realized that the two units she and Xu Yuan had chosen to upgrade had automatically been upgraded once again.
They had used two upgrade stones.
The Dark Arena had upgraded and gained new abilities.
“This is strange,” muttered Su Wan. “How did these two buildings upgrade once again by themselves?”
If other buildings had been upgraded without them choosing it, Su Wan would have thought it was an accident. Maybe even a bug in the Overlord Plane that was causing it to happen.
However, this was too strange…
Su Wan felt like there was a problem.
“Let’s just check first,” she mumbled.
Just like the Dark Castle, the Dark Arena had gained new abilities.
[Venomous Insect Breeding: Troops can be put into the arena to fight. The troop which survives will gather power to transform into unknown fusion creatures.]
[Hero Fusion: fuse two heroes. During this period, the two heroes will enter a temporary fusion state. They can change their appearance and increase their attributes.]
Su Wan finished reading. She had an idea. ‘Fusing the troops now will take too much time. I can just throw troops into the arena and see what they become.’
The surviving troop would take the powers of the dead troops and metamorphose into some other unique creature that no one knew of. Su Wan pushed the thought aside. There was no time for experimentation!
She looked at the other new ability, Hero Fusion. This ability was useful for the situation she was currently in. She didn’t think that the Dark Dragon Knights would lose. However, she was scared to risk it. She didn’t have Xu Yuan to rely on any longer, nor the strange buffs that he constantly applied to troops.
‘However, if I use the Hero Fusion…’
She had no time to think further. She looked at the timer for the Desperate Battle. The time was up!
“No!!!” Su Wan had been too engrossed in examining her territory that she had forgotten all about the duel. The duel space chose a troop at random for her: The Hell Goblin Knights.
Su Wan was bitter. The Hell Goblin Knights weren’t bad, but they were a far cry from the Dark Dragon Knights. She could have used the Dark Dragon Knights to seal her victory, but she had dawdled too much. With the Hell Goblin Knights, her outcome was uncertain.
“I don’t care anymore!” she shouted. “I will finish with the duel first!”
Su Wan looked at the duel space. If the heroes fighting the enemy could finish their job quickly, the White Dragon Saint and the others could threaten Lord Aiur to surrender, anyway.
It wasn’t like Su Wan hadn’t been in such a situation before. It had been the same with Lord Evelyn and Lord Lina. They were held hostage during the duel, and they surrendered eventually. In both cases, Su Wan had won.
Right now, it was very important for the heroes fighting the Hydra to win, so they could help Su Wan.
Su Wan was still studying the ability. If she was to fuse heroes, could she use heroes who were not her own? Su Wan suspected that heroes of other Lords could be used too.
‘Which two heroes should I fuse?’
