Which machine?
Before setting out on an expensive gathering mission, distinguish the two crafting stations in the game:
| Crafting Station | Location | Recipe Requirement | Output Mechanism |
|---|---|---|---|
| Animal Merging Machine | Safe Zone (Spawn Hub) | 3x identical duplicate pets of any species | Fused Egg (same species, ~2x weight, frees 2 pen slots) |
| Planet X Fuse Machine | Planet X (100B Speed Zone) | Exactly 1x Lindworm + 1x Thunderbird + 1x Crystal Raptor | Celestial Egg (5 distinct Celestial-tier outcome possibilities) |
Do not attempt to feed cross-zone pets into the Safe Zone machine—it will reject them.
Collect the recipe
Gathering all three ingredients requires traversing deep into the late-game biomes:
1. Lindworm (Volcano / Hell Zone)
- Zone requirement: 1,000,000,000 (1B) Speed.
- Rarity: Divine.
- Naming note: The Fuse Machine recipe UI labels its source as Volcano Zone. Older third-party guide tables refer to this as the Hell Zone. Look for the volcanic molten biome past the Ocean.
2. Thunderbird (Galaxy Zone)
- Zone requirement: 25,000,000,000 (25B) Speed.
- Rarity: Secret.
- Located in the cosmic Galaxy nest alongside Starry and Sun eggs.
3. Crystal Raptor (Planet X Zone)
- Zone requirement: 100,000,000,000 (100B) Recommended Speed.
- Rarity: Secret.
- Found in the crystalline nests of Planet X past the NIGHTMARE guardians.
Select and fuse
Once all three pets are secured in your inventory, walk up to the Fuse Machine platform in Planet X and press E (Open).
E to Open ──► Add 3 Slots ──► Select Pets to Sacrifice ──► Review ──► Press Fuse ──► Receive Celestial Egg
- Click Add on each of the three empty recipe slots.
- The UI window explicitly reads:
Select Pets to Sacrifice!. Check the box next to your Lindworm, Thunderbird, and Crystal Raptor. - Safety Check: If you accidentally select your primary income pet instead of a duplicate, click the Return button immediately to un-slot it before confirming.
- Press the glowing Fuse button. The three pets are permanently consumed.
Grow and open
The machine dispenses a glowing, purple-neon Celestial Egg directly into your satchel.
- Carry the egg back to your base sanctuary.
- Place it onto an open Pen stand.
- The egg enters a Growing Eggs incubation countdown.
- Once the timer completes and displays the green Ready prompt, interact to open the egg and claim your reward!
Read the outcomes
The Celestial Egg rolls from a weighted 5-tier outcome pool:
| Possible Outcome | Rarity Tier | Drop Chance | Baseline Displayed Income |
|---|---|---|---|
| Celestial Lamb | Secret | 60.0% | $220,000,000 / sec ($220M/s) |
| Celestial Spirit Fox | Celestial | 25.0% | $360,000,000 / sec ($360M/s) |
| Celestial Frog | Inferno | 12.0% | $600,000,000 / sec ($600M/s) |
| Celestial Axolotl | Void | 2.9% | $950,000,000 / sec ($950M/s) |
| Celestial Gorilla | Omega | 0.1% | $1,200,000,000 / sec ($1.2B/s) |
Financial Trade-off Analysis
The weighted expected outcome of this roll is $322.75M Cash/s.
- When to Fuse: When Lindworm, Thunderbird, and Raptor are secondary inventory pets and their temporary loss during incubation will not crash your treadmill budget.
- When to Wait: If these three pets represent your primary cash flow, rolling a 60% Celestial Lamb ($220M/s) could result in a net income decrease compared to running the three original pets in separate slots.
