Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 220 Recognition from the Tower of Relics

Seeing that Bai Qi had made a decision, Xiang Li nodded slightly, opened his palm, and a transparent crystal box containing red feathers appeared in Xiang Li's hand.

As the master of the Tower of Sacred Relics, Xiang Li has absolute control over everything within the tower, and retrieving a resource is merely a matter of a thought for him.

"Go back to the Tower of Knowledge and find the evolution plan for the Phoenix Feather. You must neutralize the flames of the Phoenix Feather first, otherwise it may easily damage your pet."

Xiang Li handed the Phoenix Feather to Bai Qi and gave him a reminder.

"Okay, I understand."

Bai Qi nodded and put away the Phoenix Feather.

For a creature like the phoenix, which exists between life and death, fusing with an evolutionary egg is effortless; recipes and such are too troublesome.

"Now that we've chosen the resources, let's head to the Tower of Knowledge first."

Seeing that Bai Qi had selected the resources, Chairman Qin planned to leave with Bai Qi.

"Is it a daytime mech? Perfect, let's go together."

Xiang Li smiled upon hearing this and said, "Although I'm not on the list, I'm still a member of this group, so I should be able to offer some help."

"Is Xiangta Master also involved in the research? The association really values ​​the Twin Sky Mechs."

Bai Qi looked at Xiang Li with some surprise upon hearing this.

As the master of the Tower of Sacred Relics, Xiang Li's greatest skill is not managing resources, but repairing all sorts of strange and wonderful magical artifacts.

In other words, Xiang Li is also an expert in runes, and a top-tier one at that.

"The design of the Twin Sky Mech was personally overseen by the Emperor of Law. The prototype he created is said to have combat power comparable to top-tier legendary creatures. It is a product that combines the pinnacle of runic civilization at the time, and it is no exaggeration to call it a mobile treasure."

"Although the prototype that Bai Qi found was not made by the French Emperor himself, it still has great reference value. If it can be thoroughly studied, it will be of great significance to the future development of mankind."

Bai Qi nodded upon hearing this. When he fought against the Black Sky Mech, the Black Sky Mech demonstrated extremely strong adaptability and reaction speed, even surpassing the Husky, which was controlled by an AI and assisted by Ether Gold.

Most importantly, Bai Qi only defeated the fifth-level combat power form back then, while the Twin Sky Mech has legendary combat power.

At this point, Xiang Li sighed with some regret and said, "It's a pity we couldn't get two Twin Heaven Mechs at the same time, otherwise the gains would have been even greater. The Association was a bit hasty in exchanging the Twin Towers for the exploration rights of the First Emperor's Secret Realm with the Thirteenth Bureau."

Upon hearing this, President Qin shook his head and said, "I don't think so. If the Twin Towers weren't possibly related to the Emperor of Law, the Thirteenth Bureau wouldn't have agreed to this deal. Besides, the Association has also made considerable gains in the First Emperor's Secret Realm."

"Too."

Xiang Li nodded, then looked at Bai Qi and smiled, "Speaking of the Initial Emperor's Secret Realm, I heard from the Guild Leader that you, Bai Qi, have researched the second stage of rune evolution from ancient runes?"

Uh, it feels like the whole world already knows...

Bai Qi scratched his head and said, "It can't be considered a complete research, since there hasn't been a physical experiment yet."

Unlike the unexpected creation, the Spirit Orb, the research on the second stage evolution of the runes, which should have been the main focus, has been shelved by Bai Qi. After all, the six zombies have already completed the second stage evolution and have no reference value. There are also no skeletal creatures in the Thousand Cliff Stone Forest for him to experiment on, so it has been delayed until now.

"That's perfect, let's try it out here."

Xiang Li clapped his hands, and the space around the three of them changed instantly, directly arriving in front of a gloomy square, where all kinds of skeletal creatures could be seen everywhere.

"These are all skeletal creatures raised by the Tower of Relics, originally intended for experiments or to be refined into materials. You can use them as you like."

Xiang Li pointed to the countless skeletal creatures in front of him, indicating that Bai Qi should do as he pleased. Bai Qi did not stand on ceremony and directly summoned Alpha to capture the lowest-level skeleton soldier.

Although he was the founder of rune evolution, he had only conducted a handful of experiments, so this time he chose the skeleton soldiers, which he was most familiar with.

"Alpha, first perform the first stage of rune evolution, and then prepare for the second stage of evolution."

Crackling.

(clear.)

Alpha nodded, skillfully carving a shadow rune onto the skeleton soldier, and simultaneously infusing it with energy, instantly completing the evolution of another stealth assassin.

"Although I tried it myself later, I still find it hard to believe that a young man could have come up with this. I guess I'm getting old..."

Xiang Li sighed, while Chairman Qin, standing to the side, had a big smile on his face.

"So what if I'm getting old? There's always someone to take my place, isn't there?"

As Bai Qi's discoverer, the higher Bai Qi's achievements, the happier Chairman Qin was. Although Bai Qi's unauthorized actions occasionally caused his blood pressure to spike, overall, Chairman Qin was quite satisfied with Bai Qi.

"That's true."

Xiang Li smiled. Although Yi Xiaowei wasn't as monstrous as Bai Qi, her performance was quite good, and she would likely inherit the Sacred Relic Tower in the future.

After the Shadow Assassin evolved, Alpha inscribed a complete set of runes on the Shadow Assassin, following the original design of the Dark Armor Corpse. Xiang Li and President Qin also stopped chatting and watched Alpha's operation.

Soon, the Alpha carving was completed. Bai Qi immediately took out a large mental energy storage device, thought for a moment, and pushed it in front of Xiang Li, saying, "Tower Master Xiang, this skeleton soldier is the property of the Sacred Relic Tower. Let you complete this final step."

Although the Spirit Orb has proven that the mental energy storage device will not allow the mental energy provider to form a contract with the pet, the second stage evolution of runes has not yet been tested. Fortunately, we have Xiang Li, a legendary beast tamer, so it would be a pity not to make use of him.

"it is good."

Xiang Li, who was already very interested in the second stage evolution of runes, immediately agreed to Bai Qi's request and poured his mental energy into it little by little until it was full. Then, under Bai Qi's guidance, he pressed the mental energy output port onto the rune on Yin Ci's forehead.

As mental energy was gradually injected, the rune structure on the Hidden Assassin's body was gradually lit up. By the time the entire structure was fully lit up, the mental energy in the mental energy storage device had been almost completely consumed.

Sure enough, mechanical transmission consumes more mental energy than direct transmission. He had already doubled the storage capacity based on Alpha's initial feedback, but it was still almost not enough.

We still need to improve the conduction structure of the mental energy storage device, and it would be best to redesign the connection between the runes and the circuit system.

Just as Bai Qi was recording the improvement plan for the mental energy storage device, Xiang Li took out another shadow energy stone and placed it in Yin Ci's hand. Finally, a dazzling light of evolution shone on Yin Ci's body, and Yin Ci's figure slowly changed, eventually evolving into a creature whose entire body was shrouded in shadow.

"Shadow Bone Spikes? Isn't that supposed to be Dark Armor Corpse?"

Upon seeing the evolved form of the Hidden Assassin, Bai Qi was taken aback.

The runes used by this skeleton soldier are exactly the same as those used by the Dark Armor Corpse. The only difference is the source of mental energy. I didn't expect that the evolved form would be completely different.

Is it because they entered into a contract with Alpha?

Bai Qi stared at Alpha, lost in thought, while Xiang Li and Chairman Qin focused their attention entirely on the Shadow Bone Spike in front of them.

"Servant level does not involve the evolution of the soul, so it only requires simple energy enhancement. However, starting from the elite level, the evolution of pets also requires a certain amount of mental strength. But the soul of the creature that evolves using runes is not improved, so it cannot undergo further evolution at all."

Having witnessed the second stage of rune evolution firsthand, Xiang Li's eyes were gradually filled with research enthusiasm. He said, "And you used the rune structure as a guide, using external spiritual power to guide energy to the soul and cause the soul to evolve together. It's really amazing that you came up with this idea."

Xiang Li patted Bai Qi on the shoulder and said, "Kid, your innovation will definitely leave a significant mark on human history."

As one of the six highest-ranking members of the association, Xiang Li naturally had a very broad perspective. He could certainly see how much impact Bai Qi's rune evolution and even second-stage evolution would have on the Federation.

Such a simple and rapid evolution method, even if it can only evolve to the elite level at its highest, has a very different meaning if it is mass-produced.

With just a few low-level skeletons and some energy stones and regenerable mental energy, an elite creature can be quickly cultivated. With this efficiency, the Federation no longer needs to worry about the consumption of resources when fighting ferocious beasts.

"Thanks."

Bai Qi was very happy to gain Xiang Li's approval.

With the runes evolving to the second stage, the Tower Master of the Relic Tower is really serious. Applying for a core patent wouldn't be too much to ask, would it?

My wallet is about to grow again, and I suddenly feel so happy.

A smile appeared on Bai Qi's face, but President Qin suddenly spoke up, "Bai Qi, do you have any ideas about the third-stage evolution of runes?"

Upon hearing Chairman Qin's words, Bai Qi's smile froze. He looked at Chairman Qin speechlessly and said, "Chairman, should I be happy that you think so highly of me?"

President Qin nodded and said, "I'm not joking. You solved the first and second stages. Theoretically speaking, you are the most likely person to research the third stage of evolution."

"Alright, Lao Qin, Bai Qi has only been involved with runes for a short time, but his contributions to runes have already surpassed ours. Let's not be too demanding of the younger generation."

Seeing this, Xiang Li laughed heartily and pointed to Bai Qi's mental energy storage device, saying, "This machine is well-designed, but there are still some problems with the rune structure. If you have any questions in the future, you can come and ask me directly. I should be able to help you."

"Alright, then I'll leave it to Master Xiang."

Bai Qi nodded repeatedly upon hearing this. Xiang Li was an expert in the repair of magical artifacts, and his mental energy storage device was, in a sense, a mechanical version of a magical artifact. Consulting Xiang Li was indeed the best choice.

"Alright, let's go to the Tower of Knowledge first, so these experts can serve as witnesses."

Xiang Li checked the time, then led the two directly to the entrance of the Tower of Sacred Relics, and then headed straight for the Tower of Knowledge.
