"Oh my. I don't expect this much of a change," Alros exclaimed. Since the Transformation Altar require physical intervention and him putting monsters together like a macabre puzzle pieces, e expected the changes to their mana system to be small.
However, what he is seeing is definitely no small changes.
"The mana system transform drastically. How could that be? Or maybe it is to be expected as the transformation alter a being so drastically?" he muttered to himself, trying to find a possible reason to the current situation.
[ Master, I have a suggestion. ]
Alros paid attention to Laili, wondering what idea the system guide has.
"What is it?"
[ Why don't you combine them first, the genetic materials I mean. After that, you can grow them and see the end result. ]
Alros was about to laugh at her suggestion before he realize there are merits to it. While he could not see the results right away, is it not the same with the other experiments.
"I see. So combining them while they are still materials. Might work. Also, if it doesn't, I can always use a human clone and combined them with the genetic materials of the Flame Ant," he added. While the latter experiment likely work, he could not discount the idea of the first idea.
"Let's do this then,"

Putting two genetic materials of different species is something that had never been done before, but he is not scared to do things he never did before, at least when it came to experimenting.
With the two genetic materials inside the Transmutation Magic Circle, Alros immediately activate it while using the Magic Circle to detect the mana system.
Once he done so, he could see traces of mana system, a fact that did not surprise him. After all, it just pieces of genetic materials so it is not surprising for there to be no mana system.
This also mean he could just wait and see until the two genetic materials combined. However, some control is needed so the genetic materials of the Flame Ant would not be the dominant one.
He wanted this hybrid monster to be of human shape, while having some features of the monsters he wanted. This being is the baseline prototype that will effect other future hybrids, so he need to make that they will be perfect or as perfect as it could be.

"Looks like the one I created are stronger," around the strength of lower B-rank, but since it took him not even a full day creating it, then it showed how effective they are. Not to mention, he did not put any upgrade on them just yet, which is surprising since Flame Ants are top D-rank monsters yet a hybrid between it and a human become both C-rank and B-rank.
"Maybe I should look into that latter, but for now, I should decide the way to go for the new hybrid force I planned to create," while it see, obvious to create the better one, the resources required are nothing to laught about. He require the body of a Flame Ant, even possibly more along with a special resource that can help reduce the rejection, something he found during his failed experiments.
As for the other path, their strength are weaker but they are still stronger than most average soldiers. Plus, the path of combining genetic materials and growing them are less time consuming and easier to do.
-x- Chapter Experience:
In the end, Alros go for both. The more expensive method would be used to create elite Hybrids, while the cheaper one is for the creation of regular armies.
