Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 226 Snuggling with a powerful backer is the right way to get stronger

Chapter 226 Clinging to a Powerful Backer is the Right Way to Get Stronger (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

To avoid being slapped to death by Granny Fan, Bai Qi called over Alpha and other pet beasts to help.

Shuke Beta's mechanical lord has been transformed into an all-purpose kitchen, complete with pots, pans, and all kinds of kitchen appliances.

Alpha is completely transformed into a master chef, with the Dark Mirror working together, the Blade Storm processing the ingredients, the Undying Flame providing the firepower, and the Gravity Amplification separating impurities.

As for Gamma, it is responsible for processing food waste.

The second collaboration between Bai Qi's pet team was surprisingly in cooking, and they worked together with perfect coordination.

"Damn, Bai Qi, do you have to be so curvy?!"

Seeing Bai Qi's team's skillful coordination, Nicholas Stone felt increased pressure and quickly began to use his own methods to prepare dishes. He even used his skills, and the transitions were even smoother than when he fought Alpha.

With the joint efforts of both parties, a sumptuous meal was presented to Grandma Fan.

"Not bad, the cooking skills are much better than those chefs at Liuta."

Granny Fan looked around and nodded in satisfaction. Then, a silver dragon phantom flashed by, and the food disappeared instantly.

Seeing Granny Fan elegantly wiping her mouth with a handkerchief, Bai Qi was a little confused and asked, "Nicholas, when did you see Granny finish eating?"

"I didn't see it."

Nicholas was equally bewildered. It seemed that Granny Fan had held back when she beat him that day. At this rate, he might have been beaten to death before he even realized it.

Both are legendary, so why is there such a huge difference...?

After eating her fill, Granny Fan's mood improved considerably. She carried Delta to Bai Qi and said, "I've talked to Delta, and you've indeed put a lot of effort into nurturing her. Granny is very satisfied."

Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and said, "Delta is my pet beast, so this is only right."

Grandma Fan nodded and said, "However, if you want to develop Delta towards a spatial system, the difficulty of future evolution will be quite high. You'd better be mentally prepared."

"Thank you, Bai Qi understands."

Bai Qi nodded. Although space-type materials are rare, it's not impossible for the association to obtain them. Once he perfects the Spirit Control Orb, he can discuss it with the association and maybe they can buy it.

"My mother-in-law has been living in seclusion in the association for so many years, and she doesn't have much of her collection left. Yesterday, she was looking through it and found a piece of space-related material, so she decided to give it to Delta as a gift."

"Space-based materials?!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi's eyes lit up. Looking at the spatial crystal in Granny Fan's hand, his heart began to pound uncontrollably.

After just one night, Delta had already latched onto Granny Fan's coattails?

So, does that mean hard work really pays off?

Granny Fan tossed the spatial crystal in her hand to Bai Qi and said, "This spatial crystal is of average quality, but it's barely enough to be considered a legendary material. It should be of great help to Delta, but from now on you'll have to rely on yourself."

"no problem!"

Bai Qi nodded repeatedly upon hearing this and asked, "Grandma, do you still have any space-related materials?"

Upon hearing this, Granny Fan rolled her eyes and said, "Don't even think about it. This space crystal was something I painstakingly scraped out of my teeth. I ate all the others, so don't even think about it."

Eat space-type materials?

Could it be that Granny Fan's attribute is also spatial?

Thinking about Granny Fan's recent actions, Bai Qi felt increasingly certain, and at the same time, he became more determined to cling to Granny Fan's coattails.

A space-type Eastern dragon, and one with unfathomable strength at that. If you manage to get along with it, you'll be able to do whatever you want.

Plurp plurp!

(Thank you, Mother-in-law!)

Delta was very grateful for Granny Fan's gift and kept expressing her thanks to her.

"No need, just remember to come back and chat with your mother-in-law more often in the future."

Grandma Fan shook her head, a faint smile appearing on her face, which left Nicholas, who was standing to the side, completely stunned.

Good looks are everything; the Eastern dragon and such are no longer important.

Grandma Fan patted Delta's head and said, "However, Delta's physical condition is still a bit weak. If you want to perfectly withstand the space crystal, you'd better train for a while longer, at least to the third or fourth rank before using it, otherwise it may cause energy waste."

Bai Qi nodded repeatedly upon hearing this. Space attribute materials were hard to come by, and he naturally couldn't waste them. After all, he was no longer the naive young man who would just put any material he saw onto his pet.

Resources should be used to their maximum potential.

"By the way, Delta told me you've been researching a new type of contract lately?"

Bai Qi nodded, took out the Spirit Orb, and said, "Actually, it's not really a contract. It's just a bridge between humans and their pets, barely enough for them to communicate. It's still far from the contract between a Beast Tamer."

Granny Fan took the Spirit Orb, and after seeing the runes on its surface, she frowned slightly and said, "You used a slave contract?"

Even after being simplified to this extent, can you still recognize it?

Bai Qi scratched his head somewhat awkwardly, and then explained the ins and outs of the Spirit Control Orb.

"Did Bai Heguang tell you that?"

Upon hearing this, Granny Fan suddenly realized and said, "That's true. With the strength of your human souls, unless you have special talents or break through to the mythical level, you can indeed only withstand a maximum of seven contracts. Any more than that and your soul can't take it."

"Mythical level? Do such creatures really exist?"

Bai Qi's eyes lit up. Granny Fan clearly knew more than the teacher; he couldn't miss this free source of information.

"Forget about it, there's probably no chance of a mythical being appearing in this world."

Granny Fan toyed with the Spirit Orb in her hand while looking at the six sword servants beside Alpha and said, "You're lucky. This little skeleton only has six subordinates under its contract. If there were one more, it might really take up one of your contract slots. In that case, you would never be able to become a legend."

"Such a thing is true!"

Upon hearing Granny Fan's words, Bai Qi broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, he didn't try to create other types of skeleton soldiers back then, otherwise he would have definitely activated all of Alpha, and by then it would have been too late.

Fortunately, I managed to salvage a contract slot.

Granny Fan clearly didn't intend to dwell on this topic any longer, saying, "But to achieve this effect by simplifying slave contracts, I really don't know how you came up with such an idea."

"Although the contractual relationship isn't that strong, it has at least built a new bridge between humans and their pets."

Granny Fan tossed the Spirit Ball back to Bai Qi and said, "You can try strengthening the communication structure within it and downplaying the contract. There should be quite a few peace-loving pets willing to take the initiative to form a contract."

"If Grandma remembers correctly, there was a young man named Zhang Youren who seemed to communicate with his pets in a similar way."

Zhang Youren? Emperor Wu? Kid?

Mother-in-law, how long have you lived?!

However, according to Grandma, strengthening the spiritual communication structure of the Spirit Orb means replacing the forced spiritual connection of the contract by increasing affection level?

It seems feasible?

Grandma Fan's words were like a wake-up call, and all sorts of brand-new designs immediately popped into his mind, completely forgetting about Grandma Fan and Nicholas around him.

"Let's leave first and let this little guy think it over."

Seeing this, Granny Fan didn't disturb them, and instead pulled Nicholas along and flew towards Emerald Valley.

"This is your mother's grave? There's not even a decent tombstone. If this were your mother-in-law, she would definitely come back to life and beat you to death!"

"Ahem, what's a tombstone?"

……

After pondering for an unknown period of time, Bai Qi finally came to his senses. Looking at his four pets, Alpha and the others, who were silently guarding him, he asked, "How long have I been thinking about this?"

"The exact time is one hour and eight minutes. Beastmaster, have you had an epiphany?"

Shuke accurately reported the time Bai Qi had been distracted, while Bai Qi shrugged and said, "Nothing, just had a few thoughts."

Crackling.

(Sorry, boss, I lost.)

Alpha immediately began to apologize for its defeat; the three-meter-tall giant looked no different from a small child.

"It's alright. Nicholas is a legendary creature. It would be abnormal if you could beat him."

If Granny Fan hadn't appeared, Alpha would have been seriously injured. However, Alpha's ability to push the Cowardly Dragon to this point, while partly due to Nicholas's relatively weak performance, was still quite commendable.

After all, normally, legendary creatures should easily defeat creatures of other levels.

Crackling.

Alpha nodded upon hearing this, but the flickering soul fire in his eyes betrayed his true thoughts.

I still care a lot...

Seeing this, Bai Qi sighed helplessly and decided to arrange a match where Alpha would easily defeat some weaker opponents.

When it comes to building confidence, nothing is more effective than playing a game where you beat a noob.

"I've got the space-related materials. Looks like I need to hurry up and level up Delta..."

Bai Qi looked at the space crystal in his hand and suddenly felt a headache coming on.

Although it's best to wait until Delta reaches Tier 4 before using the Space Crystal for maximum effect, with the support of the Evolution Egg and the abundant resources from the training camp, Bai Qi estimates that it will take at most a month.

There are still more than three months until the training camp ends and the materials can be exchanged. In this way, Delta will definitely be able to use the legendary materials before Gamma.

Although it was all going to happen sooner or later, I felt that breaking the rules right after the team competition to determine the order of material usage would make me seem stupid.

"How about we ask Chairman Zhao if we can claim the first-place prize early? After all, we've managed to recruit a legendary dragon for the association."

Bai Qi stroked the downy hair on his chin, and an idea suddenly popped into his mind.

"Never mind, let's give it a try first. If it doesn't work, we'll have no choice but to go on a killing spree!"

Thinking of the generous points held by Xiao Yuan and the others, Bai Qi's eyes immediately turned red. If he hadn't already run out of challenge opportunities this week, he would have rushed over right now to force a duel.

Click-clack?

(What's wrong with Master? Is he angry because he didn't get to eat?)

Bubbling.

(I'm not sure either, maybe I was just too excited.)

Gamma and Delta looked at Bai Qi, who was leaving quickly, with some confusion, having no idea what was bothering him.

Click-clack.

(Delta, let's go exploring! The poison gas here tastes delicious; you can't find it anywhere else.)

Bubbling.

(Okay, Delta also wants to get stronger quickly.)

The two pets left one after the other, and Beta, who had already seen through everything, sighed helplessly.

Awooo...

(Neither of these two guys cares, but Bai Qi is actually getting hung up on something like the order of use. Humans are so strange...)
