Beast Taming: Starting from Transmigration and Starting with a Cheat Code

Upon arriving at the project site, Qin Ming looked around.

The black hole appeared larger than usual, as it had just transformed into a spirit beast and its initial stage of growth was naturally rapid, resulting in a slight change in its size.

When he spreads his wings, the ink-like color becomes even deeper, with a faint dark purple shimmer at the edges. The patterns that were only vaguely visible before have now become clear and smooth.

Like a masterpiece of fine ink, specks of energy move within it with each breath and the flutter of wings. This signifies that not only has the total amount of energy within the black hole increased dramatically, but the degree of control over it has also changed dramatically.

Based on this alone, Qin Ming was certain that the project team had devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the black hole project and had not shortchanged the team in the slightest.

Even with his "loss of appetite" and reduced intake, maintaining such rapid growth momentum must have required the project team to put in a lot more effort.

Thinking of this, Qin Ming couldn't help but chuckle.

He stretched out his finger, and just as it approached the observation box, the black hole that had been listlessly perched on the tip of the spirit plant's leaf suddenly trembled.

He pounced on Qin Ming's finger with a "whoosh," his tiny forelegs tightly gripping the fingertip, and the flapping of his wings brought an extremely slight feeling of weight and a subtle tickle.

For a moment, Qin Ming dared not move. He looked down and saw the little guy staring at him with his obsidian-like eyes, which seemed to be shimmering with mist.

If he used to be a naive and clueless young man, now his eyes have a touch of melancholy.

"Surely it can't be that bad?" Qin Ming thought to himself.

"Qin Ming, come and take a look. This is the environment where the black hole has been living and developing for the past week. All parameters and arrangements are recorded here."

A researcher wearing thin-rimmed glasses, who was in charge of daily care, greeted Qin Ming carefully when he arrived.

Seeing the black hole, which he had carefully nurtured for several days, rush straight towards Qin Ming and cling to him tightly, it was impossible not to feel a pang of sadness.

But it was indeed Qin Ming who gave them a great opportunity for transformation, something they couldn't match, and they had to admit that.

However, despite their acknowledgments, the project team's ambitions didn't stop there.

Their ultimate goal is to analyze and replicate this mutation breeding pattern, and even try to breed a second or third Black Butterfly with similar potential! This is the core value of the project.

However, even the cultivation of the "prototype" black hole seems to have encountered a bottleneck, hindering the collection of basic data and the analysis of its behavior, not to mention subsequent replication experiments. This has made them increasingly uncertain.

Leaving aside the resources consumed in nurturing and transforming a new spirit beast, the ethical consensus and spirit master culture of this continent absolutely forbid treating intelligent beings as "materials" that can be squandered at will and repeatedly tested.

Their contractual partners were also watching from the sidelines, so morally, logically, and ethically, they didn't really have much of a chance to make mistakes.

I thought it would be as simple as just copying the answer, but when I tried it, I found that I couldn't even copy it properly!

How could a group of privileged children, who had always been the "model children" since childhood, possibly accept this?

But the more they refused to believe in evil and the harder they tried, the more they realized the futility of their efforts and the unfathomable depths of the situation. That's why they had no choice but to confront the real Qin Ming.

Following Researcher Chen's guidance, Qin Ming began to carefully examine the cultivation area.

First, there is a complex array to maintain environmental stability. The array patterns are intricate and exquisite, taking into account the simulation cycles of temperature, humidity, spiritual energy concentration, shadow and light. There are even secondary runes embedded to soothe the mind, making it comprehensive.

Next, there was a carefully selected combination of spiritual plants in the cultivation chamber, no less than seven or eight kinds. They were all high-grade varieties suitable for Lepidoptera spirit beasts, capable of providing different types of spiritual energy and special substances. The combination was meticulous, and their growth was excellent.

There's also a cultivation log and experimental protocol scrolling in real time on the adjacent light screen, which details the daily special honeydew formula, energy replenishment frequency, interactive training content, and various physiological and energy indicators...

The more Qin Ming looked, the more amazed he became.

In just one week, the project team has accumulated a thick stack of observation records, data analysis, and environmental optimization plans related to black hole production. Moreover, these are not just general discussions; each point is specific and logically clear.

The ingenuity and rigorous reasoning in many details greatly benefited Qin Ming, giving him a sense of having broadened his horizons. Qin Ming shook his head in admiration.

His head-shaking caused a jolt of anxiety in the hearts of Old Li and Researcher Chen, who had been nervously observing his reaction.

It's over! Even Qin Ming shook his head!

Researcher Chen's expression changed slightly, and he quietly nudged Old Li with his elbow: "Did we do something too outrageous and make a fundamental mistake?"

Old Li's brows furrowed, and his eyes behind his glasses were filled with uncertainty: I don't know either!

Researcher Chen's eyes conveyed deep unease and doubt: You've walked this far with him, and you haven't talked about anything, and you know nothing about him!

Old Li's brow furrowed even more: I really didn't know!

The researchers were puzzled, but Qin Ming's focused look as he flipped through the documents, sometimes lost in thought, sometimes suddenly realizing something, and finally shaking his head and sighing, seemed somewhat familiar.

The air seemed to freeze, and a silent tension spread through the air.

They unconsciously restrained their movements, no longer daring to lean against the table, and subconsciously straightened their backs, placing their hands on their trouser seams and standing upright.

The scene didn't resemble a senior student facing a junior student; rather, it looked like a group of students waiting for their thesis defense results, facing the chief examiner who would decide their academic fate.

When Qin Ming finally snapped out of his reverie from the weighty and profound "Compilation of Research Results," and looked up from the algebraic versions of the medicinal combinations of spiritual plants, the construction of energy models, and the design of behavioral incentive chains, this was the scene that greeted his eyes:

Several highly respected researchers within the academy were holding their breath, their postures respectful, and their eyes filled with complex emotions as they all stared at him.

Qin Ming was startled by this scene. What's going on?!

But he instantly realized that he probably couldn't fool a group of researchers with solid knowledge, meticulous thinking, and the ability to achieve this level of expertise in just one week...

Because no matter what they say, they will definitely verify it themselves, perhaps even on the spot.

Thinking of this, Qin Ming's mind went on high alert, and he became extremely concise.

Just as Qin Ming's brain was racing, searching for the right words, Old Li stepped forward, breaking the deadlock, but his tone was respectful and full of seeking advice.

"Qin... Qin Ming," Old Li said, forcibly correcting himself when he almost blurted out "Teacher Qin."

"You...can you see what the problem is? Could you...give us some pointers? We're really...completely baffled."

Knowing this would happen, Qin Ming remained expressionless, his eyes vacant: "..."
