Beast Taming: I can evolve indefinitely

Chapter 459 Fishing, of course, is something that happens only if the fisherman takes the bait.

Nam-yeon Coastal Association Office.

Mo Guan put down the documents Mo Li handed him, frowned, and said, "Have those giant sea monsters started causing trouble again recently?"

"Yes, although it usually starts around this time, the scale of the disturbance is particularly large this year. I suggest increasing the frequency and manpower of patrols, and it would be best to transfer some high-level beast tamers over as well."

Mo Li nodded and said.

"I understand. I'll go and discuss it with Xiao Chuanqi later."

Mo Guan put down the documents and said, "By the way, how's Bai Qi doing lately? I've been so busy that I haven't had much time to think about him. If Lao Qin finds out, he'll scold me again."

"Bai Qi?"

Upon hearing Mo Guan's question, Mo Li's expression immediately turned strange.

"He's doing well, well, I should say he's adapted quite well to life here."

"Oh?"

Mo Guan was somewhat surprised, but Mo Li did not explain. He directly retrieved the sea beast materials that Bai Qi had submitted over the past week and uploaded them to Mo Guan's computer.

"Is this guy planning to ravage the entire sea area?!"

……

Nanyuan Coast.

Bai Qi lay on the dome of the mobile sentry post, asking the AI ​​beside him, "Shuke, are you really alright leaving your main body like this?"

Shuke shook his head and said, "Strictly speaking, I didn't separate from my original body; I just assimilated this AI with my consciousness."

"Understood."

Bai Qi nodded slightly; this was essentially the same as refining an avatar.

I was worried at first that Shuke's special circumstances might prevent the quantum mind field from working properly, but now it seems I was overthinking it.

"By the way, what's Beta doing? He must be happy not having to follow you around everywhere, right?"

Bai Qi asked.

"Beta? He's sleeping."

"sleep?"

Bai Qi's forehead veins bulged. He was inspired by seeing Beta being tied up by Shuke for years and doing research with him, which he found rather pathetic. Later, inspired by Jerry, he came up with the idea of ​​exchanging quantum thinking fields to release Shuke.

But this guy, instead of staying there, was actually sleeping!

"To be precise, he/she should be in a coma."

Shuke turned on the screen on the mobile sentry post and transmitted the footage captured by the main body directly over.

On the vast, icy plains, a thundercloud was raging, and the lightning was being absorbed by energy guiding devices into the energy storage chambers below, powering the icy plains base.

On the other side, a husky covered in charred soot lay motionless on the ground, its tongue lolling out.

"This guy, he's provoking Jetta again."

Seeing this, Bai Qi sighed helplessly. He had already provoked them, but this idiot didn't even know to activate his Vajra Power for defense?

"Never mind, let him be."

Bai Qi stopped paying attention to Beta's situation and turned to look outside the sentry post.

After a week, Bai Qi had fully adapted to life at sea and even asked Mo Li for a mobile sentry post to facilitate his activities in the area.

Furthermore, he also discovered his own hunting methods.

Alpha leaned against the ship's side, its crystal arm transforming into a long fishing rod that stretched out to the distant sea.

At the end of the fishing rod, cordyceps clung tightly to it, while releasing a colorful vine that plunged into the sea.

At first, Bai Qi sent his pets into the deep sea to hunt, but due to their species and way of moving, this method of hunting was too inefficient and required searching everywhere, so Bai Qi quickly gave up.

He then found an easier and faster method.

That's right, it's fishing.

Using Alpha as the angler and fishing rod, and Cordyceps as the fishing line, there is no risk of breakage even when encountering medium to large sea monsters.

As for the bait...

Is there anything more suitable than gamma?

Snap snap snap!

(Another school of fish has arrived!)

Just then, Gamma, who was entangled by the seven-colored vines, suddenly issued a warning. The drowsy Cordyceps instantly woke up, and tender buds suddenly sprouted from the seven-colored vines, swaying in the wind.

Finally, a dark shadow appeared beneath the surface of the sea, its target none other than Gamma, who was unleashing his power at will.

Crackling!

(Put the rod away!)

Seeing that the time was right, Alpha immediately issued a command. Gamma, which had been quietly floating in the water, suddenly extended its body, transforming into a jelly wall that blocked the fish's path.

Upon seeing this, the fish immediately tried to turn around and leave, but their path was blocked by countless colorful vines.

The vines and jelly intertwined, forming a dense net that completely enveloped the fish. Alpha, who was prepared, pulled hard and yanked the net out of the water.

"Oh, bone-shelled barracuda? That's incredibly nutritious."

Seeing this, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction and began to consider lunch later. However, the scab fish obviously did not want to become someone else's food and struggled frantically in the fishing net, trying to break free.

Seeing this, Cordyceps skillfully flapped its wings, and a strange wave enveloped the school of bone-scarred barracudas, causing the school to gradually quiet down.

A sleeping fish is a good fish.

The drowsy barracudas no longer resisted, but Alpha did not pull them back to the outpost. Instead, it gently shook them, and some small fry fell from the air back into the sea.

They would never do something as ruthless as leaving no offspring.

Then, Alpha flicked the net to the side, and a dark spatial passage appeared in the air, precisely capturing the fishing net.

Bubbling.

(Capture complete.)

Delta emerged from the void and returned to the outpost along with the other four pets.

There are a wide variety of marine mammals, and almost every kind of marine mammal has been developed by humans for corresponding uses. The bone-scarred barracuda is one of the most popular foods on the tables of the Southern Abyss Coast.

"This speed at which they're making money is even faster than when they were endorsing the Elf House."

Bai Qi glanced at the resources and funds he had recently acquired by hunting sea monsters and nodded in satisfaction.

Although we didn't encounter any particularly powerful sea monsters, and most of the materials we obtained were below epic level, the sheer quantity made the gains quite considerable.

"Good job, let's fish one more round and then go back to submit the materials."

"Tests have shown that the density of marine mammals in this area is below normal. We recommend that you find another place to hunt."

Upon hearing this, Shuke immediately gave feedback and simultaneously projected a map of the distribution density of sea monsters in front of Bai Qi.

"Um, are there any high-density areas around here?"

Looking at the large green area on the screen, Bai Qi scratched his head.

"Alright, let's stop here for the morning. Fresh bone-shelled barracuda is more valuable."

Bai Qi glanced at the sun gradually drifting towards the center of the sky and decided to return.

Crackling!

(Boss, enemies are coming!)

"enemy?"

Bai Qi was taken aback when he heard this. Then he saw the once calm sea suddenly become turbulent, and he could vaguely see a huge black shadow slowly swimming towards them.

"Based on the energy value, there is an 87% probability that it is a giant species."

Shuke said.

"A giant species?"

Bai Qi's eyes lit up. Mo Guan and Mo Li had repeatedly told him not to leave the inner sea to the area where the giant sea monsters roamed, and he had obediently followed their instructions.

But now that the giant sea monster has delivered itself to his doorstep, he shouldn't be blamed, right?

When it comes to fishing, of course there will be willing fishermen who will take the bait.

"Alpha, prepare for battle. Delta, provide support from the sidelines."

Bai Qi ordered Shuke to drive the mobile sentry post away from the combat zone, leaving Alpha and Delta in place.

Although he had been able to roam the Inner Sea for some time, he had only encountered small to medium-sized sea monsters, and hadn't even encountered many large sea monsters.

Now that they've encountered a giant sea monster for the first time, considering Mo Guan and the others' previous attitude, it's best to be cautious.

Finally, after Bai Qi hid in a safe area, the giant sea monster finally revealed its true form.

With a length of about fifty meters, its snow-white belly and jet-black back create a harmonious look, and from a distance, it even appears somewhat cute.

However, after Shuk reported the information about the creature, Bai Qi changed his mind.

[Name]: Tiger Hunting Demon Whale

[Attribute]: Water

[Bloodline Level]: Mid-level Monarch

[Introduction]: A giant sea beast, the Tiger Hunting Demon Whale's enormous body and terrifying power allow it to roam the seas. Its gregarious nature makes it the most fearsome creature in the ocean.

……

"Medium-sized monarch, giant species, or gregarious?"

Bai Qi smacked his lips, it seemed he had hooked up with something extraordinary.

"Shuke, have you detected any activity signals from the Tiger Hunting Whale pod?"

"Not yet. Although the Tiger Hunting Whales are social animals, they have a wide range of activities. This one must have accidentally discovered the aura released by Gamma and came out alone."

"Okay, I understand."

Bai Qi nodded and said, "But why do I remember that these Tiger-Hunting Demon Whales are quite friendly to humans?"

"That's true, but I think he probably sees us as food now. Would a beast tamer be friendly towards food?"

"Um……"

Bai Qi suddenly understood upon hearing this and said:

"Alpha and Delta should act quickly to avoid any unforeseen complications."

Crackling.

(Boss, leave it to me.)

Bubbling.

(Yes, Master.)

Both pets obeyed the order, with Alpha taking the lead and charging out, wielding the Wind Chaser Sword and heading straight for the Tiger Hunting Demon Whale.

The flesh and blood of sea monsters are generally highly nutritious, so Alpha will not easily use the Sword of Death until it finds a fatal weakness.

After all, flesh and blood that have been corrupted by the power of death can no longer be used.

huh huh...

Seeing that such a tiny creature as Alpha was charging towards it, the Tiger Hunting Whale opened its huge mouth and roared, wanting to swallow Alpha whole.

When Alpha plunged the Wind Chaser Sword into the Tiger Hunt Whale's body, the Tiger Hunt Whale's voice changed.

Wail!

An inaudible sound resounded all around, and even Bai Qi, who had immediately donned the Gamma Armor, felt dizzy.

The high frequency of the sound of the Tiger Hunting Whale is indeed a considerable burden on the human body.

However, Alpha, being a skeleton, was unaffected. With a powerful swing, the Wind Chaser Sword slashed a deep and long gash across the Tiger Hunting Whale's body.

Although it's not possible to release sword energy like when using the Four Extremes Sword Formation, it's still easy to extend the blade using the Wind Chasing Barrier.
