Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 438 Disrupting the event? You're overthinking it...

Super God Evolution Research Institute.

Compared to its original semi-closed state, the Super God Evolution Research Institute was unusually lively today, with every building decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and people coming and going in an endless stream.

Today marks the official opening of the Super God Evolution Research Institute, a project jointly built by five major conglomerates.

"There are even more people here than when the Necromancer Department of the Star Machine Academy opened."

Through the rooftop window, Bai Qi had a clear view of the scene that remained, and couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

"That's natural. Although the opening of the Necromancer system attracted many people with the Legend of the Netherworld and the evolution of runes, it was ultimately only for the Necromancer system."

Professor Dong smiled faintly and said, "Today's gathering includes researchers from various fields such as runes, mechanics, and biology, along with representatives from conglomerates who have come to observe the ceremony. Such a large-scale opening ceremony is one of the most significant in the history of the Federation."

"That's so exaggerated... How about you speak on my behalf later?"

Upon hearing Professor Dong's words, Bai Qi suddenly felt uneasy.

With so many people here, there are bound to be quite a few trolls. Just thinking about it makes me feel like it's going to be a hassle to argue with each other in front of so many people.

"I can't do that. Everyone knows you're the director of the Super God Evolution Research Institute. A lot of people are here because of you. If you don't show up, it won't be good for the future of the institute."

Professor Dong smiled and said, "Don't worry, you only need to show up at the academic conference once, and everything else will be taken care of."

"That's right. My dad is personally involved this time, which is quite rare. He's arranged everything he could, so Bai Qi, you don't need to worry."

Zhuge Chen also comforted him, saying, "But we'll have to rely on you for the academic exchange meeting. I'm worried the scene will be too chaotic, so you have to keep it under control."

"I can't say for sure."

Bai Qi sighed helplessly. He hadn't thought much of it before, but now that he thought about it, his decision a couple of days ago seemed a bit impulsive.

"Son, show the spirit of the youngest sixth-level beast tamer, don't be a coward."

Luo Zhu, who had just come in from outside, saw Bai Qi's appearance and comforted him.

"Mom, this is an academic exchange meeting, not a battle between beast tamers. Levels are useless."

Bai Qi smacked his lips, glanced at the growing crowd below, and said, "Whatever, they're here anyway. I'm not the one who's going to get upset."

"That's right. Now that you've taken this position, be bolder. Besides, you're not the only one at the Super God Evolution Research Institute."

Bai Yan patted Bai Qi on the shoulder and said, "Although we're not as amazing as you, our three research groups have still managed to produce some results during this period."

Upon hearing Bai Yan's words, both Professor Dong and Professor Chu nodded slightly.

Although Bai Qi pioneered rune evolution and weapon evolution, they were not just for show; after so long, they still managed to develop some things.

"Then I'm relieved."

As long as it's not just him going on stage alone, he can just finish speaking and run away.

……

The lobby of the Super God Evolution Research Institute.

With a broad smile, Zhuge Xu skillfully moved among the guests, holding a wine glass, showing no airs whatsoever of a conglomerate CEO.

It wasn't that he didn't want to set up the stall, but rather that half of the people who were able to enter this hall today were of equal or higher status than him.

"Sorry, Zhuge, I'm a little late."

Just as Zhuge Xu was talking with a man, Cao Bin, Sun Tian, ​​and Liu Bei arrived together.

"You three have the nerve to say that? It's supposed to be a joint effort of five companies, but in the end, I'm the only one who's doing all the work."

Seeing the three of them like this, Zhuge Xu was immediately furious.

"You can't blame us for this. It's your territory after all. If you find it too much trouble, you can move to my place."

Cao Bin smiled and said.

"There's no need to trouble you with this. If I prepare everything and then hand it over to you, wouldn't I be wasting my time?"

Zhuge Xu immediately changed his tune, and the three of them exchanged a smile.

Although it is a joint venture of five companies, and there will even be branch campuses in the future, the main campus is located in Gusu City. The Wuhou Consortium will naturally benefit the most, so it would be strange if Zhuge Xu were willing to let go.

"By the way, have the people from the Jiuli Consortium arrived yet?"

Liu Bei looked around and asked.

"The Jiuli Consortium is quite far from here, they probably haven't arrived yet."

Zhuge Xu shook his head and said, "You guys are really enjoying yourselves as hands-off managers. Hurry up and provide more funds. Even if you can't send people, you should at least provide the money."

"Hahaha... I sent out the best researchers from the conglomerate, Zhuge Xu, it's really disheartening for you to say that."

Zhao Longxiang walked in from outside the door, patted Zhuge Xu heavily on the shoulder, and said, "It's been so long, your health is getting weaker and weaker."

"Compared to you, how many people are in good health?"

Zhuge Xu rubbed his shoulders, glanced around, and said, "Almost everyone has arrived. Please take your seats. The exchange meeting will begin soon."

Cao, Sun, and Liu nodded, but Zhao Longxiang's expression turned serious. He said, "Don't rush, there are still many people coming."

No sooner had he finished speaking than several more groups of people walked in through the door.

"The Borg family, the Ishu family, the Brita family... three of the five major families in the west have come, and the Tsukatora Group has also come."

Zhuge Xu narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he had extended invitations to various families and conglomerates, there were some forces that they never expected to come.

This includes families from the West.

Zhuge Xu didn't believe these people were genuinely there to offer their congratulations, but he still put on a smile and walked over.

"I apologize, I didn't expect you all to make the trip. It was my rudeness."

"Chairman Zhuge, there's no need to be so polite. We're the ones who are late."

A middle-aged man who looked somewhat like Dean, but was clearly more composed, bowed slightly and said, "Our Borg family has always been committed to the research of pet evolution. It's a rare opportunity, so of course we want to share it with everyone."

"Mr. John certainly came prepared."

A glint flashed in Zhuge Xu's eyes, then he looked at the Ishu and Brita families beside him and said, "Are you all perhaps in the same boat?"

"Our Brita family is only here to discuss cooperation with Master Bai Qi. Back in Eden, Master Bai Qi seemed very interested in our Mingling Gold, but unfortunately we didn't have time to discuss it in detail before he left. After that, we only reached a small transaction through the Tsukatora Group. We'll take this opportunity to discuss this matter."

Charles Britta gave Zhuge Xu a standard classical greeting and asked, "Where is Master Bai Qi now?"

"Bai Qi is currently preparing for the exchange meeting. Would you all like to take a seat?"

"it is good."

The group nodded and, led by Zhuge Xu, took their seats one after another. They remained silent and waited quietly.

"This is no friendly visitor, Zhuge. Are you sure Bai Qi can hold out?"

Looking at the people in the front row, Cao Bin frowned slightly and asked.

"That's absolutely no problem. Unless these guys can cultivate a mythical creature, they'll never be able to overshadow Bai Qi."

Zhuge Xu nodded confidently, which only made the others more curious.

"Now that you say that, Zhuge, I'm even more looking forward to it."

Zhao Longxiang smiled, then sat down with Cao Bin and the others, and began a lively discussion.

Because of the Super God Evolution Research Institute, the four of them have formed an alliance. Now that they have a rare opportunity to meet, they naturally need to carefully consider some collaborations.

Soon, all the invited guests arrived, and Zhuge Xu walked onto the stage under everyone's gaze.

"First of all, I would like to thank all the guests for coming. I am deeply honored."

With a smile on his face, Zhuge Xu scanned the crowd below the stage and said, "Today is the official opening ceremony of the Super God Evolution Research Institute, and it is also an academic exchange meeting. I won't bother with the usual business pleasantries, let's get straight to the point."

As he spoke, Zhuge Xu stepped aside and led Professor Chu and Professor Dong out together.

Upon seeing the two appear, some researchers who had been sitting quietly stood up and bowed slightly to show their respect.

Professor Dong is a towering figure in the world of runes.

Professor Chu is a towering figure in the field of mechanical engineering.

Zhuge Xu brought these two out right from the start, which means he had no intention of giving them a chance to cause trouble.

This is no academic exchange meeting, it's clearly an academic exhibition!

"Gentlemen, there's no need for such formalities. This old woman doesn't deserve such a grand gesture."

Professor Dong pressed his hands together and said, "Originally, the old lady didn't plan to appear, after all, it's the era of young people now, but as the head of the Rune Evolution Group of the Super God Evolution Research Institute, it's really hard for her to refuse."

Upon hearing Professor Dong's words, everyone nodded in agreement. Professor Dong was in charge when Rune Evolution was first introduced, and now that it has been incorporated into the Super God Evolution Institute, it is reasonable for Professor Dong to continue to preside over it.

"To be honest, after all this time, I haven't come up with many impressive results. But I'll take this opportunity to share my findings at this exchange meeting, hoping it will spark some discussion."

As he spoke, Professor Dong looked behind him, and the curtain behind him immediately opened, revealing a huge instrument. Inside the instrument, a fiery tiger cub was lying blankly on the control panel.

"This is a cub of a low-level elite Firemane Tiger, one of the most contracted basic pets in the Federation. The current known evolution limit is the King-level Fire Crown Tiger King."

Professor Dong walked to the instrument, pressed a button, and the machine immediately started working, quickly engraving a rune on the Firefly's forehead.

Then, the light of evolution shone, and the Firefly successfully evolved into the Lord-level Firefang Tiger.

Rune evolution.

Everyone frowned slightly. Originally, the first stage of rune evolution could only be used from servant to elite, but judging from Professor Dong's words, it seemed that the usage limit had been raised.

This is certainly an improvement, but it's still not quite enough for this kind of occasion.

"Zhuge Xu, are you sure there's really no problem?"

Upon seeing this, Cao Bin frowned slightly and asked quietly via wireless communication.

"Don't worry, don't you trust Professor Dong's abilities?"

Zhuge Xu grinned. They were overthinking things, thinking they'd cause trouble.
