Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 109 The Andromon Project Restarted

Bai Qi carefully put away the certificate and said, "Core patents should go through a lot of reviews, right? How come it was approved so quickly?"

President Qin said, "Do you think the title of 'Legend of the Underworld Emperor' is fake? With his guarantee, all the procedures will be completed in one go. It's just that the journey is a bit longer, otherwise it would be even faster."

I see, face-saving is useful everywhere.

"Although you applied for the patent quickly, quite a few people in Kyoto have taken notice of you, so you may be quite busy from now on."

President Qin patted Bai Qi on the shoulder, feigning reassurance, and said, "Don't worry, it'll just be some challenges or something, it's nothing serious."

Bai Qi glanced at the gloating Chairman Qin with disdain and said, "Chairman, is it really okay for you to be so ungrateful?"

President Qin laughed heartily for a while and said, "I'm just giving you a heads-up. The training camp you're going to participate in next is almost entirely composed of elites from all over the country. If you don't have enough highlights, just having a Void Breaking talent won't help you get enough resources in the training camp."

"Does the training camp also provide resources?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi's eyes lit up, as if he could already see a huge treasure trove beckoning to him.

"Of course, otherwise why don't we gather you all over to play?"

President Qin glared at Bai Qi with annoyance, then suddenly his expression turned serious, and he said, "But don't say I didn't warn you, among this training camp, you're the only second-tier beast tamer. If you don't work hard, you'll most likely just blend into the crowd."

Bai Qi nodded upon hearing this and said, "I know what I'm doing, President, don't worry."

[Name]: Evolution Egg (Bronze 99%)

Status: Activated

Because of his recent research on rune evolution, Bai Qi seized the opportunity to hunt a large number of pets. With the appearance of the slime monster, he finally increased the progress of the evolution egg to 99%.

However, Bai Qi could sense that his physical constitution and mental strength had not yet reached their limit, so he was not in a hurry to break through.

Bai Qi will only consider continuing to evolve when the Evolution Egg no longer provides him with any improvement.

Of course, the most crucial point is that he currently has nowhere to find a mutant species that can break through this last one percent.

Tsk, next time the Evolution Egg encounters a mutant, I won't bother with it.

If you can hold back.

President Qin said, "Luo Xiang should be arriving soon. See if there's anything else that hasn't been resolved and take care of it quickly. Once the training camp starts, you might not have so much free time."

President, where did you get the idea that I'm relaxed? If you don't have any evidence, be careful, I might sue you for defamation.

Bai Qi asked, "By the way, Guild Master, you mentioned before that the association provides free Lord-level pets. Can I exchange for them at headquarters?"

President Qin nodded and said, "Of course you can. It was originally issued from headquarters. You can go directly to headquarters to pick it up, saving the trouble of transporting it along the way."

At this point, Chairman Qin suddenly grabbed Bai Qi's shoulder and said, "You must remember to contact me before signing this contract. I'll help you choose. Don't just sign contracts casually like before."

Although the Rift Wolf performed impressively during the initial assessment, it was still only an elite creature and lacked some potential compared to a lord-level creature.

Unless it can evolve again, its future achievements will be very limited.

"Um, I'll try my best."

Seeing Chairman Qin's serious expression, Bai Qi couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

Although he was determined to contract a flying-type pet to ensure he would never encounter such miserable situations as traffic jams again, the potential shown by the slime monster did indeed tempt him.

Despite being merely a servant, it was able to withstand Beta's explosive power and possessed a multitude of resistances, making the slime monster quite valuable for training.

It's at least much better than the original Alfa Romeo.

Well, let's just take it one step at a time. What if we encounter a mutated flying pet?

alpha:"……"

Or a support pet like a Light Elf would be fine too; we're not picky.

Shuke Beta: "..."

Bai Qi learned more about the training camp from President Qin before leaving the Beast Tamer Association.

He had basically emptied the house of everything. He had also replenished the supplements that Alpha Evolution had used up recently, so there didn't seem to be much left to pack.

"Forget it, I'll just go back to the secret realm and mess with the natural disaster system."

These past two days, Bai Qi has been busy preparing for the opening ceremony, so he hasn't had time to deal with things in the secret realm. He's entrusted everything to Shu Ke, and he doesn't know how things are going.

Thinking of this, Bai Qi was too lazy to go home and went straight into the secret realm.

"Bai Qi... um..."

Just as Bai Qi disappeared, Lu Yuan suddenly ran over from a distance. Before he could say anything, Bai Qi vanished.

"How come this guy always runs so fast?"

Lu Yuan glanced speechlessly in the direction where Bai Qi had disappeared and sighed.

He had originally intended to ask Bai Qi if his Ghost Bone Giant Tiger could also evolve using runes, but Bai Qi simply followed President Qin away.

Although he cleverly realized that Bai Qi might have come to the Beast Tamer Association, he was still a step too late.

Or, how about we wait for him at his doorstep?

……

A secret realm.

As soon as Bai Qigang appeared in the secret realm, he was stunned by the bustling scene before him.

Several skeletons of different colors are doing various tasks under Shuk's command.

The claws that are welded using the high temperature of their own claws are fire claws;

The hidden spikes constantly move through the shadows, transferring materials for the parts.

They're cold-treating some materials; those are ice bones.

The one busily moving materials was Steel Skull;

These were all given to Bai Qi by President Qin to study runes at the beginning, and he didn't say he would take them away. Bai Qi originally planned to give them to the Elf House, but unexpectedly, they were directly used as laborers by Shu Ke.

Furthermore, Bai Qi also noticed that these skeletons were equipped with mechanical devices to guide the precise operation of energy.

Bai Qi walked over to the husky, grabbed the slime, and ruffled it, asking, "Shuke, how's the disaster relief system being set up?"

Shuk paused for a moment and said, "The basic design drawings have been completed, and they are basically in accordance with your requirements, Beastmaster. However, the actual construction will take time, so please wait a while, Beastmaster."

Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this. Since acquiring Shuke's mechanical consciousness, he had begun to entrust many things to others, and even rarely engaged in practical training at the Mecha Weapon Academy.

Alas, it's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

I still succumbed to depravity.

Bai Qi sighed inwardly for a while, then threw the slime monster back at Beta's head. Beta, who had just regained his spirits, once again fell into a state of dejection.

A dog's life is ruined...

Bai Qi looked at the tireless and diligent skeleton in front of him and said, "By the way, do you need me to get a couple more skeleton soldiers to help you?"

"No need. Even if the skeleton soldiers successfully evolve, their attributes are still too low. Mechanical equipment is much faster in comparison. These are just temporary solutions."

Shuke shook his head and said, "However, these skeletons still have different attributes. I plan to modify them after the base is initially built."

Um, is this a revival of the Andromon project that failed with Alpha?

If Minghuang finds out, he'll probably chop himself up...

Bai Qi shook his head and silently decided the future fate of these skeletons.

Unless he can defeat Minghuang one day, or Shuke gives up on modifying them, these skeletons may have to stay in this secret realm for the rest of their lives.

Bai Qi asked, "By the way, how's the Angel Flower being installed?"

"I've temporarily simulated an environment suitable for Angel Flower, and it seems to be growing well so far. However, if you want it to grow healthily, it's best to find some light-type materials."

"Materials for light..."

Bai Qi scratched his head, instinctively thinking of Wu Yi.

Since his main pet is the Goddess Butterfly of the Light element, he should have a lot of Light-element materials around him.

However, this guy is too scheming and not as straightforward as Xia Xuan. If he were to tamper with the light-element materials and ruin the Angel Flower, it would really be a case of losing more than he gains.

"Forget it, let's go look for some light-elemental runes."

Looking at the well-organized construction site in front of him, Bai Qi didn't linger any longer and left the secret realm directly.

boom!

Just as he left the secret realm and returned to the real world, he felt a figure crashing into him head-on, and before he could dodge, he was directly hit in the chest.

Oh dear, I completely forgot that I entered the secret realm from the association's entrance. What a blunder!

"Bai Qi, what are you doing here?"

Just as Bai Qi was about to apologize, he heard a familiar voice. When he looked up, he saw that the person he had bumped into was none other than Bai Qiucha.

"Sorry, I just came out of the secret realm and didn't notice you."

Bai Qiucha shook her head, then said, "But you've come at the right time, I also have something I'd like to ask you."

"consult?"

Bai Qi was taken aback upon hearing this, somewhat confused by Bai Qiucha's meaning.

The son of a legend, if he wants to know something, it's just a matter of saying a word. Why would he need to ask him for advice?

"That's right. I've been trying to break through the Tower of Gratitude for the past few days, but I still can't get past the seventh floor."

Bai Qiucha nodded seriously and said, "I know that the Tower of Gratitude tests a Beastmaster's knowledge of runes, so I would like to ask you to teach me about runes."

Bai Qi scratched his head somewhat awkwardly and said, "Um, I'm just a student. If you want to learn runes, it would be better to go to a professor in the rune department, right?"

Bai Qiucha said, "I've already asked. Learning runes is extremely time-consuming, and I can't afford to wait."

"Can't wait? The Tower of Gratitude isn't going anywhere. You can learn at your own pace."

"The Tower of Gratitude can only accommodate second- and third-tier Beastmasters. If I continue to suppress my level, it will be detrimental to my future development, so I need to accelerate my progress."

Suppression level?

Are you about to break through?

Bai Qi stared at the man in front of him, who was possibly the youngest fourth-tier beast tamer in the history of the Federation, speechless for a long time.

"I've investigated, and you didn't spend much time learning runes or reaching the Tower of Gratitude, so I'd like to ask you about your shortcut!"

As she spoke, Bai Qiucha suddenly bowed deeply to Bai Qi and said solemnly, "Please!"

Hey, you can talk, but why are you bowing?!

Bai Qi glanced at the people slowly gathering around him, and at the several phones that had already started filming; he had already foreseen tomorrow's headline content.

The Son of the Underworld Bows to the Founder of Rune Evolution; Something Seems to Be Behind It...
