In other words, her quietness in daily life is just a disguise. Neither her way of thinking nor her values are remotely close to the word "normal".
This is very similar to the mad wizard Halaster Blackrobed.
The latter's mental state was also quite abnormal when he was in the underground maze. He would even talk to himself and let multiple clones cooperate with each other.
No one knows how many copies of himself this old madman has made, and no one knows whether the mad wizard encountered in the underground maze is really him or just one of his many clones.
But one thing is certain, no one dares to provoke him easily.
Because every copy of Halaster Black Robe has a spellcasting level very close to his own.
This means that provoking him is like stirring up a hornet's nest. At that time, there may be several, dozens, or even hundreds of legendary wizards collectively mobilized to retaliate.
If we add [Simulation] to it, I'm afraid we can create a high-level magic group in a matter of minutes.
Of course, Isadora was not much worse.
After creating twelve clones, she did not stop, but started to cultivate more new clones in the basement.
When Zuo Si finished dealing with all the matters in Luskan and teleported back, he was stunned when he saw a large group of identical girls rushing towards him.
He didn't even have time to break free before he immediately shouted, "Isadora, what's going on? What have you been doing while I was away?"
"I found a way to get stronger quickly, and that is to change from me to us."
Isadora raised her head with a smile of excitement and joy on her face.
Not only her, but the clones around her that were infused with personality fragments also had similar reactions.
Because they have all perfectly inherited the girl's twisted and morbid dependence on Zuo Si, but there are some relatively large differences in personality. For example, some Isadoras look shy, and even if they just put their arms around each other, a large blush will appear from their face to their necks.
Some are more open and bold, and even come close to others and try to ask for a kiss.
Zuo Si pulled out an arm and gently pushed it away, then asked with a serious expression: "You cloned yourself?"
"Yes, that's right. I cloned myself, and then separated the personality fragments in my mind and let them occupy new bodies. In this way, when their psychic abilities grow to a certain level, we can start to devour each other. Each time we devour, our psychic powers will increase by nearly one-fold, which is much faster than the usual traditional training method."
Isadora, who didn't know whether it was a clone or the real person, smiled and explained.
To be precise, maybe even she herself can't tell the difference, and doesn't care about it.
Because when he was very young, when he was debating with the split personality fragments in his mind and fighting for control of the body, his personality had been influenced and even replaced countless times.
In addition, her different worldview, values and way of thinking from ordinary people also lead to the girl having a very vague concept of "self" and not having a strong sense of self.
Hearing this, Zuo Si felt his scalp tingling, and hurriedly continued to ask: "Is this devouring absorbing each other's personality and memory, or is it simply absorbing spiritual energy? In the end, is only one preserved, or multiple? Most importantly, how many copies of yourself did you make?"
"It is a fusion of personality, memory, and psychic energy. As for how many are retained, we don't know yet, maybe one, maybe two, maybe three or four. In short, we are all Isadora, and we all want to be with you forever. As for the number, so far there are thirteen in total including the original body, but there are still fifty-two being cultivated."
Another girl hugged her neck from behind and whispered affectionately in her ear.
This clone's personality was clearly a bit wild, and he even tried to nibble gently on his earlobe with his teeth.
However, Zuo Si's powerful perception and agility allowed him to dodge it easily.
"Damn it! What gave you such a crazy idea?"
When Zuo Si thought about having to deal with several, dozens or even hundreds of Isadoras with serious psychological problems at the same time, he felt a splitting headache.
You have to know that just one person is already a bit difficult for him to cope with, not to mention the changes in personality and subjective consciousness after they devour each other.
For example, the one behind you, every move is obviously very aggressive, and he will definitely want to take the initiative in the process of getting along with you.
This is in stark contrast to Isadora's originally quiet and submissive character.
The one on the left was too shy. He didn't say a word from beginning to end and just held on to my arm tightly.
When these opposing and contradictory aspects are merged together, God knows what new personality will be born.
Although Zuo Si was once obsessed with games like drawing cards and lucky draws, he still declined the idea of opening a "personality blind box".
“It gave me inspiration.”
As she spoke, the other Isadora grabbed the little Furu floating nearby.
"It? Are you sure!" Zuo Si was stunned for a moment.
Because Furu is a kind creature, that's why he gave this little creature to the girl as a gift and a magical pet, and even hoped to use it to treat and improve the girl's psychological problems.
But who could have thought that this little guy would become the culprit of the whole thing.
Gurgle! Furu instantly gushed out a stream of air from his body, then waved his tentacles desperately, and through the mental connection, he indicated that he was not responsible for this.
Because it is too young, it has no way to express its intentions clearly, and just keeps showing various pictures.
Finally, Zuo Si understood what the little guy meant.
Obviously, when Furu initially showed those images of cultivating giant heart-stealing insects, he did not want Isadora to frantically copy herself and devour each other to strengthen her psychic abilities.
Instead, he told her that she could use the mind flayer tadpoles' ability to devour each other to create stronger tadpoles, and continue to use the original method to strengthen her psychic powers.
But who would have known that Isadora would have such a wild imagination and do something as crazy as cloning herself.
Although Xiao Furu tried to stop her, the possessed girl ignored him.
After finding out the truth of the matter, Zuo Si finally understood what it meant to "Misfortunes sent by Heaven can be pardoned, but misfortunes brought upon oneself cannot be forgiven."
Looking at Furu's innocent face, he couldn't help but sigh slightly, poked the little thing's soft body with his finger, and said through gritted teeth: "Don't give Isadora any advice until you learn to express your intentions clearly, understand?"
Gululu! Little Furu spewed out another puff of gas, and shook his tentacles dejectedly to show that he understood.
As for the Isadoras surrounding him, Zuo Si didn't know what to do with them. He could only go to the basement to check the cultivation status of the clones.
But when I saw the babies without any intelligence in the jars, I was speechless.
After a long silence, he said without turning his head, "After this batch of clones mature, don't breed new ones in the short term."
"Why?" the girl asked in a very confused and puzzled tone.
"Because your existence has caused trouble to many people. Especially those children from the slums who come to the Mage Tower to receive education, learn knowledge and professional skills. They simply cannot understand something like cloning that will have a huge impact on ethics and morals. Moreover, cultivating clones will consume a lot of the Mage Tower's reserve materials and energy." Zuo Si made up some reasons.
Because he really didn't know how to face so many Isadoras with different personalities.
You should know that according to research by modern sociologists, there is a limit to the number of people a person can establish and maintain social relationships with.
Normally there are no more than one hundred and fifty.
Zuo Si neither had the energy nor the possibility to spend all his time on this group of girls with serious psychological problems.
"Okay, we get it."
All the Isadoras present seemed to be aware of this problem and quickly gave an affirmative answer in unison.
Because they also discovered a problem, that is, as their number increased, it was impossible for everyone to get close to Zuo Si, smell the scent emanating from his body like usual, and then get hugs and kisses.
Soon, the girls reached an agreement through telepathic connection.
That is, the number of people appearing around Zuo Si at any one time cannot exceed two, and they have to take turns.
Of course, Zuo Si knew nothing about this.
After a brief stay in the Mage Tower, he immediately set off for the administrative building of Athkatra to discuss some matters about establishing a country and issuing its own currency with the six-member council that ruled Amn.
As expected, at the beginning, these people were very resistant to the idea of issuing new currency.
One member even proposed to split the seigniorage equally with Zuo Si in an attempt to dissuade him from doing so.
But unfortunately, Zuo Si, who comes from modern society, is naturally extremely sensitive to things like currency and financial sovereignty. How could he allow such an important economic lifeline to be controlled by others?
Although he already has enough strength to uproot the Six-member Council and the family behind them at any time.
Finally, after four hours of repeated negotiations, the six groups representing the interests of the entire upper class of Amn finally agreed.
There is no other way! With the sale of the huge naval fleet, no one can stop the trend of the Nelanser Islands to unify the entire west coast of Faerun.
If the relationship really breaks out, both the routes to the New World and the trade with the coastal city-states will lose their security.
In addition, the powerful strength demonstrated by Zuo Si himself in recent times also made them dare not make any small moves.
However, in line with the strategy of giving a sweet reward after a blow, Zuo Si also gave enough benefits to the six-member council.
For example, the sugar supply will double from next year, and at the same time, the company will provide exclusive agency rights for another condiment that will trigger a dietary revolution and has never appeared in the continent of Faerun.
The scientific name of this thing is "monosodium glutamate", which is the MSG that modern people often put in cooking.
Don't underestimate this little thing that is very inconspicuous in daily life and was once even considered unhealthy.
Before MSG was discovered and extracted on a large scale using industrial technology, the only way for humans to pursue umami taste was to boil various broths and then add them to the corresponding dishes.
This approach not only consumes an astonishing amount of materials, but is also not affordable for most lower-class civilians.
Of course, in Faerun, arcane spellcasters and apprentices can achieve similar effects through zero-level [Magical Prestidigitation].
You should know that even the price of the Zero Ring Trick is calculated in gold coins.
But MSG has changed this situation.
Just a pinch of these crystal-clear particles will give any dish a delicious flavor.
Zuo Si directly poured two cups of water from a pot, added a little MSG into one of the cups, and then made a gesture of invitation.
"Please try it. Believe me, after you try it, you will understand that it will become an indispensable item in all taverns, inns and restaurants in the entire Faerun continent, just like salt."
“That’s really exciting.”
A member of the six-member council picked up the cup doubtfully, put it to his lips and took a sip.
moment!
When the unique chemical composition stimulated his taste buds, his eyes lit up immediately. He took a second sip before passing the cup to the next person. He asked in a curious tone, "Is this some kind of magic effect? It's incredible! You can make a glass of water so delicious."
Zuo Si responded meaningfully: "Sorry, this is a commercial secret, I can't tell you. I can provide you with a large amount of such condiments every year, and promise you exclusive agency rights for at least five years. How about this gift, can it offset the losses caused by my issuing my own new currency?"
"Exclusive agent?"
Another member of the six-member council who had just tasted MSG stroked his chin and began to frantically calculate in his mind how much profit this deal could bring.
After a few minutes, he nodded slightly and said, "This is a good deal. It is indeed enough to bring in huge profits. But you should know that what Amn needs most urgently right now is to expand its influence."
"That's right. It would be even better if we could conclude an alliance and join the fight against Sembia." Another member of the six-member council echoed.
"So you want me to impose a trade embargo on Sembia? To have my fleet seize and confiscate every merchant ship from Sembia?"
Zuo Si immediately guessed what the six-member council was thinking.
In the field of business, Amn is undoubtedly the most successful country in the entire continent of Faerun.
Because modern chambers of commerce, companies and structural forms such as equity make them conform to the objective laws of trade and commercial development.
Coupled with the support of the Church of the Goddess of Wealth, even a country as close to the east as Cyre can see signs of Amn merchants' activities.
As the old saying goes, a town not frequented by the merchants of Amn is necessarily extremely poor and backward.
Wherever there is trade and profit, you will find them.
But unlike its huge success in business, Amn was a complete failure in terms of force and military.
Although the Six-Man Council allocates a large sum of money every year to maintain the military's expenses, its combat effectiveness is simply appalling.
Not to mention comparing with a traditional feudal military power like Cormyr, they can't even beat the Flaming Fist mercenaries in Baldur's Gate in the north.
You should know that when the difference in military strength between the two sides is the largest, it can even reach more than ten times.
Moreover, its equipment is luxurious enough to make most city-states envious.
Whether it is a breastplate made of fine steel, an almost fully covered helmet, or equally sturdy hand guards, greaves and iron boots, they can protect the soldiers from head to toe.
A set of this kind of armor costs at least several hundred gold coins on the market.
As for weapons, they are equipped with a large number of powerful crossbows.
Normally, they are just a bunch of rubbish. With such luxurious equipment, they should have some fighting power, right? But no! The army of Am fully demonstrated what it means to be a jerk without limits.
Not to mention the military conflicts with other neighboring countries, even when dealing with poorly equipped orcs and goblins, they often suffer defeats.
Just a few years ago, an army of three thousand men was defeated by less than a thousand orcs and gnolls in the mountains outside the city of Esputa.
In this battle alone, they left behind enough weapons and equipment for the enemy to replace their muskets with cannons, almost leading to the capture of the entire city.
The situation of the navy might be slightly better, but it is still limited and has long been corrupted beyond recognition.
This is also why the Six-Man Council ruthlessly cut down its own navy and sold all the warships.
This not only saves a lot of expenses, but also is equivalent to getting rid of a heavy burden.
Anyway, most of the time the navy's duty is just to crack down on rampant pirates, so asking them to participate in attacking other cities or land wars is simply wishful thinking.
Now that pirates have completely disappeared, the safety of merchant ships can be guaranteed, so there is naturally no need to keep them.
Therefore, for Amn, the biggest benefit of forming an alliance with Zuo Si is not trade and huge profits, but the fact that he has a powerful army and the terrifying deterrence brought by his title as the Chosen One of the Goddess of Poison and Disease.
It is just like when capital in modern society grows to a certain level, it will inevitably desire to make some secret transactions with those in power, using money in exchange for the other party's protection and policy support.
In the eyes of the six-member council, Zuo Si was such a perfect partner.
The leader said without hiding anything: "Sambia is our strongest competitor in the Moon Sea and Falling Star Sea.
If the movement of its merchants could be restricted, the blow to trade would be fatal.
Moreover, after losing a large number of merchant ships, the Sembia government will inevitably speed up the pace of deforestation, leading to violent conflicts with local elves and druids.
When the war breaks out, trade will inevitably be disrupted, and we can join forces to eat into their market share vacated on the West Coast and the Shining Sea."
But Zuo Si smiled and shook his head: "It's too much to confiscate merchant ships directly. I won't do it. In fact, it doesn't need to be so troublesome to deal with Sambia. We can just use pure economic means."
"Oh? Do you have any good ideas?"
The person sitting at the last seat couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
Zuo Si explained with a playful look on his face: "As everyone knows, Sambia is a union ruled by warlords of different factions. Merchants with noble titles control every aspect of the country. Although it is a country on the surface, it is still divided internally.
They follow the profit-seeking principle of businessmen and will not do anything that is not beneficial to themselves.
This means that if an industry loses its lucrative profits, almost everyone will quickly choose to leave.
Almost all the original farmers were forced to become serfs or even outright slaves in the land scam that year.
Add to that the city dwellers' deep-seated contempt for their country folk, and the country as a whole can almost be said to be riddled with internal contradictions.
试想一下，如果有人以极其低廉的价格向桑比亚倾销粮食和农产品，让所有的农场主和牧场主都无利可图，结果会发生什么呢？”
瞬间！
在场每一名六人评议会的成员都低下头陷入了沉思。
作为与安姆类似的商业国家，桑比亚最典型的特征就是喜欢当“二道贩子”。
换句话说，就是没有制定任何相关的贸易保护政策。
只要有利可图，几乎什么都卖，也几乎什么都买。
当出现远低于市场价格的大批农产品涌入，他们必然会下意识选择大量买入并进行囤积。
而这种买入行为会导致国内农产品出现严重过剩。
只要倾销的时间足够长，价格崩盘几乎是一定的。
价格崩盘会导致农场主和牧场主损失惨重，光靠种植粮食根本赚不到什么钱，只能转向其他种植更多类似棉、麻等经济作物。
同时会想尽一切办法把低价处理掉手头囤积的粮食来换取运作资金。
不用多，这种情况只要维系个三五年，桑比亚就会从一个粮食出口大国变成一个粮食进口大国。
届时只需要在其国内粮食储备处于低谷且青黄不接的时候突然断掉粮食倾销，到时候粮价百分之百会瞬间暴涨几十倍乃至几百倍。
再加上商人逐利的天性会下意识的进行囤积以进一步抬高价格赚取暴利，粮食供应在几天之内就会出现严重问题，甚至是大规模的饥荒。
只要稍微派出点人煽动一下，那些原本就对整个国家极度不满、甚至可以说是仇恨的农奴、奴隶，立马就会揭竿而起，迅速形成一股极具破坏性的力量。
要是像竖琴手同盟之类善良阵营的组织或者教会再参与其中，虽说推翻桑比亚现有的政权不太可能，但割据一方绝对不是妄想。
如此一来，这个国家就会在严重的内部矛盾与分裂中渐渐瓦解，最终失去与安姆竞争的资格。
毫无疑问，这是最纯粹的经济手段，根本无需冒着巨大的政治风险去拦截和没收桑比亚的商船。
可唯一的问题是，到哪里去弄那么多廉价的粮食呢？ 安姆虽然也是农业大国，但生产成本并不比桑比亚更低，甚至还要高出好几成。
毕竟后者采用了农奴和奴隶，所以在人力成本上要低得多。
在生产力迎来革命性突破之前，奴隶制事实上并不像大多数人想象中的那么低效。
否则在距离现代非常近的大航海时代，也不会出现大名鼎鼎且繁荣无比的黑奴贸易，有些国家甚至延续到了十九世纪才慢慢废除。
想到这，为首的六人评议会成员用不是很确定的语气试探道：“你能提供多少廉价的粮食？”
“很多！多到超乎你的想象。不用多，只要一年之后，我就能提供足以养活西海岸所有国家和城邦的粮食。三到五年之后，粮食产量甚至可以养活整个费伦大陆。毕竟我所使用的农夫，可都是一些不需要吃饭、喝水，并且永不疲劳的亡灵。”
左思嘴角微微上扬给出了一个令在场所有人都感到震惊和难以置信的答案。
因为随着掌握了普兰提亚浮空城，就相当于掌握了该浮空城辐射范围内的所有土地，以及所有城镇仓库里的资源。
光是存粮的数量就相当惊人。
再加上从周边城市和村镇收编的海量低级亡灵，恢复农业生产简直就是再简单不过的事情了。
而且经过对存粮的检查，他确定变异的病毒和细菌只会感染动物，不会对植物产生任何影响。
至少仓库里存放的那些食物，在没有被腐烂尸体污染之前，百分之百是无害的。
听到左思可以提供如数量如此庞大的粮食，六人评议会瞬间便意识到这完全可以成为一种对付潜在竞争对手的武器。
经过简单的商讨之后，双方迅速就向桑比亚倾销粮食发动贸易战达成了一致，甚至还花费了一点时间来商讨具体的操作细节。
很显然，六人评议会对于这些粮食的来源十分感兴趣，并且不停的旁敲侧击进行打探。
因为他们知道，就算左思大批量使用亡灵作为免费劳工，其统治范围也没有足够的耕地。
尤其是北方的路斯坎，土地大半年都处在冰封状态，根本不适合进行耕种。
哪怕大面积垦荒，充其量也只能勉强维持自身消耗。
耐兰瑟尔群岛虽然气候温暖，可大部分岛屿面积都太小了，根本没办法抵挡风暴的侵袭，粮食产量根本不稳定，经常会受到暴雨或是台风的影响。
但左思显然不会向这些家伙透露自己旅法师的身份，所以直到最后六人评议会也没能打听到任何有用信息。
等他处理完所有这些琐事，这才来到位于法师塔地下最深处的螺壳舰内，去查看新生主脑的状况。
与之前只有几个夺心魔在附近活动的冷清的状况不同，随着无限量提供的地精狼人，这些可怕的生物已经通过寄生的方式快速繁衍出了一个数量在四百左右的群落。
毕竟主脑的成长是要以夺心魔的幼体蝌蚪为食，同时还需要融入更多的夺心魔大脑。
所以维持一定数量的夺心魔非常有必要。
但这里的最高权限，始终掌握在已经被制作成召唤生物卡牌的夺心魔手中。
后者甚至有权命令可调遣那些亡灵生物，对于那些刚刚完成转化的夺心魔形成了绝对压制。
事实上只要稍微观察一下螺壳舰周围和内部的情况就会发现，这里的氛围跟普通夺心魔群落截然不同。
一般夺心魔绝对不会在亡灵大军的环绕下建立定居点。
因为它们强大的心灵控制与魅惑能力，对于这些亡灵根本不起作用。
不用问也知道，这些驻扎在此地的亡灵大军，就是左思用来威慑和控制这个夺心魔群落故意安排的。
因为他不确定光靠安插几个内鬼，是否真的能控制这么多的夺心魔，尤其是未来会变得越来越聪明、越来越强大的主脑。
而亡灵的作用就是当局势失控的时候，直接一拥而上杀光所有掀起叛乱的夺心魔，然后俘获根本无法动弹的主脑。
才刚一走进脑池所在的房间，一名夺心魔便快步走上来，恭恭敬敬的鞠了一躬。
“主人，按照您的吩咐，我已经开始在此地搭建灵能网络和大量灵能设备，不出意外的话几个月之后就能开始投入使用了。”
“干得不错。不过相比起这个，我倒是更关心主脑还没有产生自我意识吗？”左思直截了当的问。
夺心魔挥舞着四条触须摇了摇硕大的章鱼脑袋：“非常遗憾，暂时还没有。我想可能是因为之前剥离了原本意识的关系，所以新意识需要一段时间的酝酿。当然，如果您着急的话，我可以直接命令几个新生体献出自己的大脑，以此来刺激主脑意识的诞生。”
“不，不必了，还是慢慢来吧。记住，如果主脑产生自我意识，记得第一时间通知我。”
说罢，左思便不再理会脑池中那个硕大的大脑，把注意转移到了一旁正在编写中的灵能手册。
由于很早以前他本人就对心灵异能产生了相当的兴趣，所以直接拿起来大概翻了翻。
结果发现这玩意跟普通意义上的书籍完全是两种截然不同的东西。
它并没有任何文字，仅仅是用一些奇怪符号拼凑起来的金属板。
唯有通过心灵异能进行感应，才能得知里边记载的内容。
当然，还有另外一种学习的方法，那就是让主脑直接给自己灌输相应的知识。
除了夺心魔之外，其他种族的心灵异能使用者恐怕很难接受。
因为这意味着要不设防的彻底敞开精神世界。
如果主脑有什么歪心思，甚至能瞬间摧毁其心灵，又或者直接改写从出生到现在的所有记忆。
“这些心灵异能手册都是给伊莎多拉准备的？”左思随口问了一句。
“没错，这些都是给那个人类女孩准备的。她非常非常的具有潜力，甚至比我大多数的同胞在这条道路上走的都更远。”
在说这番话的时候，夺心魔语气中透露出一丝毫不掩饰的欣赏。
尤其是最近一段时间克隆自己，简直让它有了一种这个女孩根本不是什么人类，而是另外一个更加优秀且强大夺心魔的错觉。
因为在整个多远宇宙中，除了夺心魔之外没有第二个种族会自愿放弃“自我”，转而追求一种融合之后的集体意识。
但伊莎多拉却做到了。
不仅做到了，而且还变得更加激进且疯狂。
眼前这个夺心魔很期待，在吞噬了成千上万个自己之后，女孩究竟会变成什么样子。
Will it be like those main brains that have lived for hundreds or even thousands of years, full of wisdom that mortals cannot understand? To what extent will its spiritual power be?
Perhaps just one thought can control and change the thinking and memory of thousands of people...
"This is what I'm most worried about. Don't provide Isadora with too much technical support like psychic transformation in the future, otherwise she will become a real monster one day."
Thinking of the scene in which he was surrounded by a dozen Isadoras, Zuo Si couldn't help but shiver.
The feeling was so strange that I couldn't help but start to doubt whether there was something wrong with my training of him.
After all, he had been trying to make this troubled girl return to normal. Not only did he spend a lot of time with her, he also bought her some beautiful dresses and clothes like he would treat an ordinary girl, and even tried to make the magic items she wore beautiful, just like jewelry.
You have to know that Zuo Si is an out-and-out pragmatist, which can be seen from the seemingly inconspicuous high-level magic items on his body.
But unfortunately, all these efforts ultimately came to nothing.
The "normality" he expected never came to Isadora, but instead she went further and further away from her original path.
Now, even Zuo Si doesn’t know what the girl will eventually become.
Because from the moment she copied herself, Isadora embarked on a horrifying evolutionary path.
Either you successfully merge all the personality fragments together to find your true "self", or you get completely lost in this process of infinite division, mutual devouring and fusion.
For a long time in the future, Zuo Si may have to deal with a girl whose personality and preferences change drastically every few weeks, and there is no pattern to follow, everything is random.
"I'm very sorry, Master. You're talking too late. That girl and her clones have already learned all the knowledge about psychic powers from me. One of them was even crazy enough to try to dig out her own brain and put it into the brain of another clone to fuse it like a main brain."
The Mind Flayer carefully gave out an extremely terrible piece of information.
Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Brain fusion! Is this really possible?"
The Mind Flayer hesitated for a moment, then quickly explained, “In theory, it’s possible.
Because Isadora is a psychic, as long as she and her clones continue to devour each other until their psychic powers are strong enough to rival the main brain, she can naturally use the technology I provided to directly fuse their brains.
The problem is, the human body is clearly not big enough to sustain an ever-increasing brain.
So in the end, you either have to give up your body and soak it in the brain pool solution like the main brain, or change your body to make it giant. "
"Then what do you think is the reason why Isadora can allow a large number of replicas to coexist peacefully without having the desire to kill each other?" Zuo Si continued to ask, touching his chin.
The Mind Flayer answered without hesitation: "It is their infinite attachment to you in their subconscious.
This strong feeling of attachment that cannot be described in words even surpasses everything.
To give the simplest example, if you become interested in an individual among these clones with a wild personality, or even prefer him or her.
Then the individual will gain an unimaginable huge advantage in future devouring competition.
The other clones will subconsciously think that this is the type you like, so they will deliberately let the other party devour them without resisting.
If one day you change your mind and become interested in another one, the latter will quickly replace the former.
Simply put, your preferences are the key to determining Isadora's future personality.
By the same token, you can also take advantage of this point, cultivate it deliberately, and eventually get the results you want.
In short, this human girl has unimaginable plasticity and great potential, and will definitely be your best and most loyal helper."
After hearing this, Zuo Si's mind immediately popped up a lot of development games that he had played.
The common feature of these games is that they can have a decisive impact on the growth of a character through player intervention.
Obviously, Isadora, who has been mixed with the clones and cannot be recognized at all, is now in such an uncertain state of "Schrödinger's cat".
If Zuo Si did not interfere and allowed it to change randomly, then God knows what kind of troublesome yandere personality it would end up with.
But if there is a large-scale interference, will Isadora still be herself?
Or will it completely become a toy like a game character controlled by the player?
Headache!
At this moment, Zuo Si clearly felt what it meant to be "caught in a dilemma".
With this very contradictory feeling in his heart, he unknowingly came to Wilmes's lair.
As soon as he walked in, a wonderful shirtless drama suddenly appeared in his sight, which made Zuo Si drop his head in shock.
I saw Huendal, a male red dragon that was captured not long ago, working frantically on a group of large animals.
His eyes were bloodshot and his behavior was completely out of control. He was undoubtedly under the influence of some magical potion.
On the other side of the dragon's nest, near the animal pen, a large number of pregnant large animals and magical beasts are held.
"What are you doing?" Zuo Si asked with a twitching mouth.
Wilmes responded with a puff of sparks from his nose, "Didn't you see? Of course, they are creating more red dragons in order to obtain sufficiently stable offspring with genetic characteristics. When they grow up and mature, they will mate with Beltogas' offspring. According to past experience, only when two dragons of different origins combine can a stable dragon population be born."
"I see. But is this frequency really not a big deal? I feel like this guy has lost a lot of weight."
Zuo Si looked at Huendal, who was getting thinner and thinner, with a look of slight pity.
The slightly bulging belly of this strong red dragon can no longer be seen, and the dragon's face, which originally had some flesh, has obviously become much sunken. It is obvious at a glance that this is caused by excessive indulgence.
Of course, this can't be blamed on him.
After all, anyone who was fed so many aphrodisiacs would end up like this.
If it were a mortal, they would die within a few days of reproducing at such a high frequency.
But a dragon is a dragon after all. It doesn't show any signs of weakness at all. It is still as strong and vigorous as ever. It just looks a lot thinner.
Thanks to Hundal's efforts, it won't be long before a large number of half-dragon creatures are born in the Mage Tower.
Moreover, since the appearance of half-dragons is completely randomly mutated and there is no pattern to follow, even two half-dragon creatures born from the same mother may look completely different.
Maybe one has wings and the other doesn't.
As such, it becomes crucial to achieve the desired half-dragon form through mass production and then have that portion of its genes passed down to future generations.
