The Count's Mansion, beneath candlelight.
Bai Pu spread open the book Legend of the Immortal.
On the table also sat a large dark-gold shield, now wrapped in a layer of dark-gold cocoon.
After devouring the corpse of the Demon Lord Saramak, the Demon Spider Queen's Vigil finally showed signs of another transformation.
This time, the tower shield should be able to transform from "Tier One High-Grade" equipment into "Tier Two Low-Grade" Evolutionist equipment.
However, the Demon Spider Empress's item spirit had informed Bai Pu of the difficulties through telepathy.
From Tier One to Tier Two was a qualitative leap.
The remains of a single level 14 Demon Lord were still not enough to complete that qualitative change. They had only provided an opportunity for it.
Bai Pu still needed to keep feeding the Demon Spider Empress—in other words, feed it the remains of the "Demon Race."
Through the instinct granted by Evolved Pureblood, the Demon Spider Empress's tower shield would continuously absorb and fuse with these remains, turning them into energy for the advancement of its base material.
The higher the grade of the Demon Race remains fed to it, the faster the tower shield would transform. It might even transform into Dark Gold Equipment with a "Tier Two Mid-Grade base material," or even a "Tier Two High-Grade base material"!
And so, Bai Pu fed it Demon Remains while reading Legend of the Immortal.
