So Black Pigeon's beam absorption comes from Bemstar? Bemstar could even beat Ace! Who'd think a weak Earth pigeon fused with Bemstar could become so strong?
"So, do you have your super beast synthesis machine?" Rhodes asked.
Super beast fusion was tricky—unlike cultivating Zetton, which was mature tech. Balt and Zett were both bio-experts, so they could raise a Zetton in a month. But super beast fusion was only in the early stages, based on Yapoolian's notes, and the success of the fusion was still uncertain.
But with Yapoolian's machine, a super beast could be synthesized in days.
"Master, that's our race's treasure—I don't carry it around.
After the battle with Ace Ultraman, our race was devastated, and the machine was destroyed by the Land of Light," Yapoolian said.
Just like you can't expect every human to carry an aircraft carrier! For Yapoolians, the fusion machine was even more advanced.
"Can you build a new one?" Rhodes asked.
"Yes, but I need to extract dimensional energy and make dimensional metal—that's essential for the machine," Yapoolian replied.
"You mean the same metal as the Ace Killer's armor?" Rhodes asked.
Rhodes had summoned several Ace Killers, all with top-tier armor, which could be repaired in the system if less than half was damaged—just spending some gold.
"Right, Master. But a killer weapon's armor isn't enough. I need at least 100,000 tons of dimensional metal to build the machine," Yapoolian said.
If not, he'd have to enter the dimensional world and extract energy, which took centuries for even Yapoolians.
"100,000 tons? Not too much—I have it in stock," Rhodes said, pulling out the gold-plated Emperor edition Ace killer armors—100,000 tons, just 30,000 system gold. He'd break and repair them repeatedly for more metal.
Yapoolian was stunned—did his master have other Yapoolians under him?
"Don't misunderstand, you're the only Yapoolian here.
I just gained many Ace Killers and can repair their armor to get the metal," Rhodes explained.
"Amazing, Master! In that case, I can start making the fusion machine—it'll take a few months, using the ship's equipment.
One machine can synthesize one super beast at a time, as long as there are enough materials," Yapoolian said.
With the metal ready, all he needed was to forge it.
"No problem. Use any equipment here, but stay in this underground area in your true form, and disguise as a human above deck," Rhodes said.
"Don't worry, Master. No human can see through my disguise, not even DNA tests," Yapoolian replied.
Rhodes trusted the aliens' disguises—Salome looked human, and Balt and Zett's shape-shifting was flawless.
"Yapoolian, one more question—can you enter the dimensional world?
I mean, like opening a rift in the sky, like shattered glass.
Don't you need dimensional energy for some super beast fusions?" Rhodes asked.
Yapoolians' best ability was entering the dimensional world—a parallel reality outside the physical universe. In the Ultra TV shows, super beasts appeared by breaking the sky like glass—mind-blowing for the 1960s!
But could the summoned Yapoolian connect to it in this new universe?
"Master, I'm curious too. Let me try," Yapoolian said.
If not, it'd be a huge loss, but he doubted he could connect across universes.
"Go ahead, but be careful—this universe has a Warp world, a mix of dream and reality, and it's dangerous," Rhodes warned.
Warp is higher-level than the physical universe—a chaos realm, or the Supreme Domain.
"Another dimension here?
I'll be careful, Master!" Yapoolian nodded, activating his powers to try to connect.
After hours, red energy swirled around him, but it wasn't Warp energy, so Rhodes didn't interfere.
Eventually, Yapoolian opened his eyes.
"Sorry, Master, I can't connect to the dimensional world. But with my bloodline, I can still extract some dimensional energy, so I can still make some super beasts.
But it'll be very slow. Even making one fusion super beast will take a long time.
The fusion machine and its operation also need dimensional energy. And I can't use dimensional teleportation anymore," he sighed.
He'd tried his best, but this universe was completely cut off—he'd lost his greatest trick!
"It's okay. As long as you can get some energy, it's enough.
What about the Warp? Can you connect to that?" Rhodes asked.
He wondered if his monster enhancement could help Yapoolian extract more energy.
"I can sense it and try to link, but you said it's dangerous, so I didn't.
The Warp is much higher level than the dimensional world—ours is just a sub-plane, about the size of a star system.
That's why we tried to conquer Earth.
But the Warp is a physical manifestation of the universe—a chaotic, supreme field," Yapoolian explained.
He understood more deeply than anyone—don't mess with the Warp.
"Alright, let's try enhancing your monster powers—maybe you'll extract dimensional energy more efficiently," Rhodes said.
