Yapoolian's height and weight upgrades were ordinary—five times, same as other monsters, nothing special.
His beam ability could be upgraded twice—2,000 gold for the first, 3,000 for the second—boosting power and range.
He also had psychic powers: teleportation, telekinesis, telepathy, and even possession (he'd possessed humans and Ace Killers in the original). He could even fuse his soul with a super beast, but only with powerful resentment.
These psychic powers were different from Mefilas's—they came from the Yapoolians' unique dimensional energy.
Their specialty is refining and controlling dimensional energy.
Yapoolians could use their stamina to refine dimensional energy—a super-spatial energy outside the physical universe. It powered their machines and was needed for super beast fusions.
Many super beast fusions required not monster parts, but this energy combined with earthly concepts or objects—violins, mummies, pyramids, statues, or dolls.
After boosting his height and weight, Yapoolian could extract even more energy.
Dimensional energy level could be upgraded six times:
1st: 10,000 system gold
2nd: 50,000
3rd: 250,000
4th: 1,000,000
5th: 5,000,000
6th (Ultimate): 20,000,000
Each upgrade massively increased the amount and purity of extracted energy, and boosted all psychic abilities, putting him on par with Mefilas.
The 6th upgrade would grant a dimensional energy core furnace, providing endless energy.
With enough energy and two core furnaces, they could even carve out a new dimensional world between the real universe and the Warp. Once done, they'd have instant interstellar teleportation—faster than the Webway.
"Hahaha! Yapoolian, maybe we can create our own dimensional world together!" Rhodes exclaimed.
If Yapoolian's energy was maxed, Rhodes could get his core furnace, and together they'd open a new dimensional world—better than the Eldar's Webway since Yapoolian's portals needed no gates—just break the sky, super convenient.
"Master, it seems we really could create our own dimensional world," Yapoolian agreed.
"Let's max out your beam, height, and weight, then upgrade your dimensional energy twice!" Rhodes decided.
"Wait, Master!
Since each upgrade restores me, can I burn my life force to extract more energy?
That way, we can get even more for free! What do you think?" Yapoolian suggested.
Normally, he could only refine a little, but burning life force produced much more.
"Great idea!
What does extracted energy look like? Do we need special containers?" Rhodes asked.
"No need, Master! Our energy compresses into red crystals—easy to store," Yapoolian explained.
Rhodes nodded, and Yapoolian began.
Yapoolian's body glowed red, his life force draining rapidly. In his palm, crimson energy condensed into a crystal. Burning 90% of his life, he could extract 1,000 tons per day; normally only about 10 tons.
Rhodes immediately boosted his height, fully healing him. With maxed stats, each extraction yielded 1,500 tons.
After spending 30,000 system gold on five height and weight upgrades, Rhodes had Yapoolian extract 15,000 tons of energy—huge red crystals filled the lower deck.
After three beam upgrades, another 5,000 tons. In total, Yapoolian extracted 20,000 tons of energy crystals.
"Master, with your upgrades, I've extracted 20,000 tons at once.
Alone, that would've taken me over ten years," Yapoolian said.
Now, with boosted stats and beam power, he could refine 15 tons per day without burning life.
"Very good. Let's upgrade your dimensional energy next," Rhodes said.
Yapoolian nodded and burned his life again, producing 1,500 tons more. Rhodes spent 10,000 gold for the first upgrade.
Yapoolian's body changed drastically, energy levels soaring, and after half an hour, he was done.
"Master, my psychic powers are boosted. I can now extract 20 tons per day without burning life," Yapoolian said.
"Excellent, let's do another upgrade," Rhodes said, spending 50,000 gold. This time, Yapoolian refined 2,000 tons.
"Now I can extract 30 tons daily—triple what I could before!" Yapoolian said.
"Great! How much energy does building the fusion machine need?" Rhodes asked.
"10,000 tons and each use needs 5 tons per day. Fusing a super beast costs at least 100 tons, more for stronger beasts," Yapoolian replied.
"With over 20,000 tons here, build the machine first. We'll make a few super beasts and see," Rhodes said.
"Understood, Master," Yapoolian replied, grateful for the enhancements.
"Let's go meet your colleagues and set up your lab," Rhodes said.
Only the Balt was in the underground lab; Zett and Salome were overseeing the Forge World's construction—a future logistics base for making King Joe robots, Mecha Ultramen, Zettons, and maybe Yapoolian's super beasts.
"I've heard so much about you, Yapoolian! I'm very interested in your super beasts!" Balt greeted him warmly—after all, this was a legendary bio-synthesis master.
"You're too kind; your Zettons also interest me. Let's work together to make stronger bioweapons for our master," Yapoolian replied.
The two top-class Ultra-universe bioengineers hit it off immediately.
Balt showed Yapoolian the latest Zetton juvenile and the two experimental fusion super beasts.
"You really are a top geneticist!
You managed to cultivate super beasts with just my notes.
Leave the next phase of their growth to me!" Yapoolian said, looking at the giant super beasts in the incubation chambers.
