Beast Tamer: I'm invincible because I can see the evolution path!

Chapter 158 Joe the Conman Bai: Aren't we good friends and partners who trust each other?

And perhaps because the phone became the "angel's" vessel... in any case, Qiao Bai was unable to check the "angel's" status through his talent skill.

Qiao Bai: I give up. I've broken it to pieces. Whatever.

did not expect……

Did the "angel" wake up on its own so quickly?

Unable to resist, Qiao Bai curiously poked the ugly big eye on the phone screen.

The Ugly-Eyed Messenger: "..."

[Could you please stop what you're doing before I answer your question?]

Qiao Bai: "Hmm? So you can feel my touch through the phone screen, so what exactly are you now?"

As he spoke, Qiao Bai continued poking and prodding with his hands.

In other words, this feeling is easy to understand, right? When you see a cute but ugly little thing on your phone's home screen, can anyone really resist poking it and shaking it back and forth on the screen with their finger?

This is the essence of keeping a desktop pet!

The Heavenly Emperor has been downgraded again to "Ugly-cute little gadget." The Messenger: "..."

The "angel," which was originally only the size of a mobile app icon, suddenly grew to the size of the entire screen.

The eyes surrounding the "angel" also became more prominent.

He stared intently in Qiao Bai's direction.

Qiao Bai: "..."

Stop the action.

I'm a little disgusted.

Although he had already seen the "angel's" true face and communicated with her face to face, seeing the "angel" again through the phone screen, with every detail so complete, still made Qiao Bai feel a little sullen.

"You've squeezed all my phone icons into the corner." Qiao Bai withdrew his finger, his gaze falling on the bottom of the phone screen, where the various mobile apps were pitifully piled up in twos and threes like a bunch of small garbage cubes, and said righteously.

[With your consent, the angel will have full access to your phone, becoming your best personal butler and intelligent companion.]

Whatever the task, the angels will complete it for you.

Qiao Bai: A little surprised, but not much.

From the moment the "angel" took over his phone, Qiao Bai had a hunch about the "angel's" intelligence.

The fact that this thing could ask him for his consent before authorizing his phone gave Qiao Bai a slight sense of comfort.

Yep.

It seems there won't be an omnic crisis.

"Alright, alright, we've gotten a bit off-topic." Qiao Bai tried to steer the conversation back to the beginning: "Let's start by telling you how you woke up."

"I mean, when you were in hibernation before, things seemed pretty bad?"

Integrity: 0.1%.

How much better can the situation get?

However, from his conversation with the "angel" just now, Qiao Bai could sense that there was nothing wrong with the other party.

The line of thought is very clear.

They are very capable.

Even if the "angel" is reduced from a mythical, superhuman being with a physical body to a smartphone AI, it still possesses considerable power.

"You can detect if there are any suspicious eavesdroppers around just by using your phone..." Qiao Bai clicked his tongue in his mind.

That's quite an ability!

Okay, the angel will answer your question.

The "angel" blinked, and then the eyes on the rings surrounding the large eye in the center blinked as well.

Qiao Bai held on.

The angel awakened because it absorbed a small amount of energy from nearby air particles, replenishing its energy reserves. After nine days, the energy level increased by 2%, allowing the angel to barely function and communicate with you.

Qiao Bai: "?"

It sounds a bit convoluted.

However, Qiao Bai simplified it himself.

"...So, there's an energy source nearby that can replenish your power? You've replenished a little bit of power through... well, it's through air contact absorption. You can turn it on now."

This can be understood as follows:

"So the energy source you mentioned... wouldn't it be the source of this [darkening] incident?" Qiao Bai didn't think he was overthinking it at all.

Nine days.

It just so happened to be the time he went out to sea.

If we must say what Qiao Bai doesn't understand, then it's only the source of his "darkening".

[Corruption? Do you mean the changes that occur after energy enters the bodies of other extraordinary beings? That's not a problem; the angel will record your form of address.]

Qiao Bai rubbed his forehead.

big head.

That's a huge head.

He felt he needed to have a good talk with this "angel" and find out what he didn't know about.

But overall...

The awakening of the "angel" is a good thing for him.

Assuming that the "angel" cannot harm him, having such artificial intelligence is quite useful.

Qiao Bai wanted to say something more.

The "angel" icon on the phone blinked twice.

[When another human life form is detected approaching, the angel will automatically enter standby mode.]

You can wake the angel at any time in a safe environment.

After confirming that Qiao Bai had seen the text on the phone screen.

The screen flashed.

The "angel" icon that had just occupied Qiao Bai's entire phone screen has now reverted to the shape of a small icon.

The icons that had been piled up like a mountain of trash at the bottom of the phone screen have been neatly restored and returned to the home screen.

Qiao Bai glanced at it.

"Angel" also helped him kill some background processes and adjusted the placement of some inconvenient app icons according to his usual usage habits.

Qiao Bai: "..."

The AI ​​in this phone is so thoughtful.

"Haha, Professor Qiao Bai, are you sunbathing here all by yourself?" Muller's carefree voice came from not far away before he was seen.

Muller, like a flamboyant foxtail grass, kept waving his hands at Qiao Bai: "Professor Qiao Bai, want to go fishing in the sea together!"

"You might even encounter the extraordinary creature you're interested in studying."

After spending these few days together...

That's all.

Müller is becoming increasingly familiar with Joe Bai.

Even with Su Fang and Su Zhengming trying to stop him, they couldn't.

Qiao Bai glanced at the bottom of the water. He wanted to refuse, but he didn't refuse completely: "Let's skip it today. I'm not prepared, but I'll give it a try."

"Alright!" Muller patted his tanned chest loudly. "Professor Qiao Bai, just call me whenever you're interested. I promise I won't let anything happen to you!"

Qiao Bai smiled.

Although he was carrying a big secret in his pocket.

There was a big secret that might solve the problem after communication, but Qiao Bai was not in a hurry. Just like a few days ago, he maintained his original pace and remained calm and unhurried.

After a tiring day.

I returned to my room.

The cabin was a bit swaying, but after a few days, Qiao Bai had gotten used to the feeling.

at last.

Qiao Bai took out his phone once again.

"Come out." Tap the phone screen, and the "angel" icon "whoosh" grew larger, once again taking up the entire screen space.

Having had a similar experience once, Qiao Bai was already able to ignore some of the "angel's" little quirks.

Let's continue with the topic from the daytime.

"What do you mean by energy source? And what about the reaction that occurs after entering the bodies of other extraordinary beings, which can be called corruption?"

[The energy source is the transformed energy within the body of an extraordinary being after successfully breaking through to its awakened bloodline essence.]

Qiao Bai: "?"

Just one line of text.

There isn't much content.

There's a bit too much information.

What does it mean for "a supernatural being to evolve toward its awakened bloodline essence"?

immediately.

Qiao Bai thought of Xiao Wu's "Three-Legged Golden Crow" bloodline.

Although Xiao Wu's evolutionary direction is the three-legged golden crow.

However, there is still a huge gap between the real Three-Legged Golden Crow and what Qiao Bai knew from another world.

after all.

That's a creature that only exists in myths and legends... wait?

Qiao Bai immediately thought of the rank of "angel"—mythology.

Is this the myth?

Qiao Bai's expression didn't change much, but a lot of thoughts were flashing through his mind.

The evolutionary direction of mythical creatures...that's really something...

"So... has a supernatural being in the ocean successfully attempted to break through to the direction of mythical bloodline?" Qiao Bai's voice was somewhat low.

No wonder Qiao Bai was so shocked.

It's really...

Unbelievable.

A mythical-grade, extraordinary creature of immeasurable power has appeared in the ocean!

What will happen to the superhuman beings who have successfully broken through and become mythical creatures?

No, the breakthrough failed.

Just as Qiao Bai was losing his mind, the "angel" bubble appeared in front of him.

Six characters.

This completely shattered all of Qiao Bai's previous worries.

Qiao Bai: You worried for nothing.

But no matter what, it's a good thing.

"The breakthrough failed... then your awakening..." Qiao Bai's eyes revealed a hint of doubt.

Something's not right.

The words before and after "angel" don't make sense.

Although its breakthrough failed, a portion of its energy, enhanced by its rich bloodline, was transformed into mythical biological energy—the energy required by angels.

understood.

The breakthrough failed.

died.

However, it can still be reused.

Incidentally, Qiao Bai also seemed to understand the origin of the "darkening".

"According to what you're saying... the energy of mythical creatures and the energy of extraordinary creatures are different."

This is easy for Qiao Bai, a transmigrator who experienced the information explosion of another world, to understand.

It's like cultivating immortality.

The moment you transform from a mortal into an immortal, the power within your body also changes. This is a transformation from quantitative to qualitative change, and also an upgrade of energy.

The unknown supernatural being that died after failing to upgrade had some of its energy upgraded, while some energy did not.

The energy from the upgrade... can be used by the "angel".

What about other extraordinary beings?

"【Darkening】is when extraordinary beings come into contact with, ingest, or consume mythical energy."

【Yes. 】

Mythical energy holds immense appeal for extraordinary beings seeking to break through their bloodline limits; however, ordinary extraordinary beings can only absorb a limited amount of mythical energy, and the amount they can actually absorb is negligible.

When mythical energy exists within a body but cannot be converted into its own energy, it will erode the supernatural being's body from the inside out, altering its brain structure and accelerating its death.

Only mythical beings can absorb mythical energy completely, without any repercussions.

Qiao Bai: "..."

To eat something poisonous or not to eat it, that is the good question.

Most of the extraordinary creatures in the ocean couldn't resist eating—even though the probability of being altered was high, they thought, "Why not take a chance?"

Fortune favors the bold.

Humans understand this principle, and extraordinary beings understand it as well.

then.

So many extraordinary creatures rushed forward to absorb energy, then were corrupted by it, and then... the invasion of the coastline happened.

"...Why would they attack the coastline? What did humans do to provoke them?" Qiao Bai's expression was filled with helplessness.

Really.

Humans are so innocent.

This all comes down to it.

Humans gained nothing.

In the end, you'll still have bad luck.

I'm in big trouble.

They weren't attacking humans; they just wanted to get ashore.

During this process, they encountered humans, sensed a threat from them, and thus launched an attack.

silence.

Silence is Kang Qiang's tone tonight.

Extraordinary marine creatures, wanting to come ashore?

really.

Even in a different world, reaching the shore remains a common goal for all living beings (just kidding).

"An unexpected disaster."

"Humans are really unlucky."

Qiao Bai rubbed his forehead.

Only after fully understanding the inside story will you realize what a ridiculous farce this is...

Isn't it just a farce?

Extraordinary marine creatures are clamoring to come ashore; are they trying to take over the land world?

While we're at it, we'll wipe out a wave of humans?

Qiao Bai: Hehe.

Your thoughts, after your brain structure was altered, are truly pure and unpretentious.

"So now, if we can deal with these mythical energies, we can solve the problem of these constantly appearing [corrupted] supernatural beings, right?"

The "angel" didn't speak, but simply winked at Qiao Bai.

That's what it means.

Qiao Bai: "..."

Good guy.

He's waiting for me here.

"You want this energy."

【Yes】

The word "angel" doesn't imply anything hidden.

want to.

I really want it.

Although they are artificially created life forms, from the moment of their birth, "angels" exist as living beings with a desire to live.

Unlike other extraordinary beings who grow stronger step by step.

"Angels" need an abundance of energy.

Otherwise... it will remain quietly dormant in Qiao Bai's phone, just like it was a while ago, unable to perceive the outside world, no different from being dead.

"it is good."

[Can the angel grant your request...?]

【#￥……%*（!!￥##R`1】

Qiao Bai's voice and the word "angel" sounded at the same time.

"Angel":?

It's garbled.

The "angel" blinked at Qiao Bai's eyes, then blinked again.

The eyes, which had been blinking rhythmically like human breathing, suddenly seemed to lose control and began blinking wildly, each eye seemingly having its own thoughts.

Qiao Bai had to admit that this scene looked incredibly cheesy.

It's even more sanity-depleting than before.

But Qiao Bai couldn't help but laugh.

He understood what the "angel" meant by the last words she didn't finish.

Doesn't this make even artificial intelligence look amazing?

of course.

This also shows that "angels" are not truly intelligent life forms with numbers and code as their underlying logic.

They are good at bargaining.

"Angels" are still made of flesh and blood.

As beings of flesh and blood, they have feelings and weaknesses.

Qiao Bai's expression remained unchanged, but his heart grew increasingly calm.

well.

There's still so much to talk about.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Bai blinked and said with a frank smile, "Just like you said, I need to solve a problem, and you happen to be able to solve it, and it will benefit you. What's wrong with me agreeing?"

"Angel":……

"But according to human behavior patterns..." The angel, who had only communicated with Qiao Bai through text after he had said it once before, spoke again through the phone.

It wasn't Qiao Bai's imagination.

Qiao Bai heard a clear pause and hesitation, which is a human thought process.

"At times like these, I need to analyze the pros and cons, offer the benefits I can provide, and reassure humanity that I will not do anything detrimental to them or themselves. Only after making such assurances can I gain their consent."

The "angel" fluently recited this long passage.

Qiao Bai smiled.

"Aren't we friends?" Qiao Bai paused for a moment, then added, "Or perhaps partners?"

"I thought you would come with me and entrust the search for energy to me because you trusted me."

Qiao Bai never mentioned his innate skills.

She's an "angel" who puts in a lot of effort to deceive people, possessing some emotional intelligence, though not very high, and completely unaware of human cunning.

"Angel":?

Whether it was because the main body was inside the phone or because the "angel" itself could do it, all of the "angel's" eyes turned into question mark shapes.

The main theme is... confusion and helplessness.

Is this what it feels like to be trusted and entrusted with emotions by humans...?

I have never experienced this kind of feeling before.

Born as the "ultimate weapon," it was burdened with a mission, but was eventually sealed away for various reasons.

Until I met this human in front of me.

Only then did they acquire a nice-sounding name of their own.

Having been entrusted with feelings...

"You're right, you can trust me, and I won't let you down."

The "angel" spoke calmly in a mechanical tone, without pausing, as if it were some truth that should not be questioned.

Qiao Bai: My non-existent conscience ached slightly for a moment.

then……

Hehe~

He's not a bad person.

Doesn't this mean there's no contract between them?

Even if the "angel" wouldn't hurt him, after getting used to the "contract" rule of this world, Qiao Bai would unconsciously think a little more.

Fortunately, the "angel" was much simpler than he had imagined.

Qiao Bai: Justified.jpg

……

The yacht set off again the next day.

"Yes, this direction, turn a little more, a little more... Okay, okay, this is it, just stop here."

Qiao Bai, who had only made simple adjustments to the flight path a few days ago, went straight to the cockpit today, gesturing wildly and changing the flight path.

Yacht driver: "..."

endure.

Bear with me.

The driver kept telling himself: This isn't some ignorant fool who pretends to know everything and acts on impulse. Professor Qiao Bai must have a reason for doing this!

Perhaps it was because he had been comforting himself too much, and because Qiao Bai's expression really did seem to make sense... after being ordered around so much, the driver got used to it.

I even felt—oh dear!

This voyage was originally intended to support Professor Qiao Bai's research.

Professor Qiao Bai can do whatever he wants!

Muller and Su Zhengming, who occasionally came down to check on the situation: "..."

"Wait, wait, wait!"

"Why don't you listen to me when I tell you to drive the boat?!" Muller shouted, pointing at the helm after seeing how obedient the helmsman was to Qiao Bai. "Double standards! You're using double standards!"

The driver rolled his eyes at Mueller: "Who do you think you are to compare yourself to Professor Qiao Bai?"

"I am a hypocrite, so what are you going to do about it?"

"If you have so many ideas, then you should sail the boat yourself."

Muller: "..."

This isn't about whether or not you can sail the boat yourself; it's clearly a matter of dignity!

Driver: I can't be bothered with you!

Qiao Bai: "Ahem."

I'm a little embarrassed.

But he wasn't actually causing trouble.

The location he pointed to was precisely where the mythical energy was most concentrated, as perceived by the "angel." Only after reaching the vicinity could Qiao Bai operate to obtain the energy.

The method of absorbing and converting energy through air is low-energy and inefficient, with extremely low conversion and absorption rates. It can only be used in special circumstances for emergency situations.

Now that Qiao Bai and "Angel" have reached a consensus and become good partners, they should naturally choose the most efficient way—to strike at the enemy's lair!

We drove for most of the day.

1:10 PM.

The yacht arrived precisely at the location designated by Joe.

"Let's stay here for the night."

The driver had no objection to what Qiao Bai said.

Ok.

can.

Anyway.

Professor Qiao Bai, please continue your research.

Qiao Bai felt a little embarrassed by the driver's trusting gaze.

cough cough.

He turned and went up to the deck.

"Do you have any diving equipment? Give me a set, I need to dive." Qiao Bai went straight to Muller.

Müller: "?"

"Hmm? Here? This doesn't seem to be on our usual nautical charts." Muller hesitated, looking at Qiao Bai. "How about I and Old Su go down and scout it out first? We don't know how many extraordinary creatures there are in this area..."

"If Professor Qiao Bai simply wants to go diving, you should probably choose a different one..."

"Based on my deduction, the source of this abnormal energy is very likely in this area. I want to go down and check it out," Qiao Bai interrupted Muller.

Müller abruptly shut his mouth.

Immediately afterward, an expression of utter disbelief appeared on Muller's face: "No, Professor Qiao Bai, how did you discover... the source is here?"

Looking back on the past ten days.

They all stayed together at sea and on the ship. They weren't exactly inseparable, but they knew what Qiao Bai did.

then……

They felt nothing at all.

Su Fang and Su Zhengming's pets have also found a new evolution path.

He turned his head.

Qiao Bai said: He found the source.

Müller: "???"

Muller wished he could crawl into Qiao Bai's brain to see how it was structured, otherwise why would the differences between people be so great?

"No, if that's the case, then we absolutely cannot let Professor Qiao Bai go down and risk it alone. Let us go instead!" Su Zhengming had just stepped onto the deck when he heard the two men's conversation, and he quickly said.

Su Fang followed from behind: "Yeah, take us with you."

Qiao Bai: "..."

Thank you all for your kind offer.

but……

"No," Qiao Bai refused.

"I can vaguely sense where the source is through my innate skills." Half true, half false.

They blame all the problems on their innate skills.

Qiao Bai was just an ordinary beast tamer and professor of pets, with no secrets.

"You'll most likely not find it if you go down there." That's still the truth.

After all, Qiao Bai had an "angel" to guide him, but the others did not.

Muller, Su Zhengming, and Su Fang: "..."

"Shall we let our pet follow you?"

"Yes, yes, that's right. With Luo Shuiyu's strength, Professor Qiao Bai, you'll be safer."

"The Yao Nu Fish and other pet beasts can protect Professor Qiao Bai's safety!"

"My spotted fish is pretty strong too!"

After the three of them finished speaking, they looked at each other and agreed that this was a good idea.

Their pets are all water-type, making them very suitable for the ocean environment.

They are of no use.

Pets can always come in handy, right?

Qiao Bai: ...Well...it's a bit hard to say.

"It's best not to," Qiao Bai said with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. "If the source really is here, and your pets rashly follow me to approach it, they might accidentally be invaded and contaminated by the source as well..."

Qiao Bai didn't need to say anything more.

The three of them trembled.

They have annihilated countless corrupted supernatural beings in recent days.

They were well aware of what state the supernatural beings would be in after being contaminated.

As a trainer, no one wants to see their pet turn into those extraordinary creatures.

But what about Qiao Bai's safety...?

"Trust me, it'll be fine." Qiao Bai pressed his advantage, "I'm a beast tamer after all. If there's a real problem, I can release my pet to hold it off."

"You guys..." After thinking for a moment, Qiao Bai felt that he should find something for them to do, otherwise Su Fang, Su Zhengming and Muller might secretly follow him down, which would be really not conducive to his secret actions.

"You guys stay on the shore and do your best to drive away any supernatural creatures nearby, so my stress can be relieved a bit."

Qiao Bai said with a smile.

Now that things have come to this point...

Even if others disagree... thinking about Qiao Bai's words makes perfect sense.

"Alright... Professor Qiao Bai, you must be careful!" Muller sighed helplessly, lowering his eyes as he said, "If anything happens to you, it won't just be the president causing me trouble. For my own safety, you must protect yourself!"

"Okay, I understand." Qiao Bai couldn't help but smile upon hearing this.

That's true...

If something really happens, Uncle Huang will be furious.

Beast Taming Alliance Headquarters: "..."

Oh.

What if we don't exist?

We have to blow it up too!

With Su Fang's help, Qiao Bai put on the complete set of diving equipment.

Unlike the somewhat bulky diving equipment that Qiao Bai used in his previous life, which required carrying a huge oxygen tank, this was different.

Although most of the technological advancements in this world have been focused on the medical field.

However, other aspects have not remained completely unchanged.

More often, it permeates every little aspect of life.

Without comparison or frequent contact, these changes would be completely unnoticed.

Take diving equipment, for example.

Both the wetsuit and oxygen equipment are thinner, more form-fitting, and last longer.

The specific principles behind it... Qiao Bai didn't know.

However, on the packaging bag next to it, Qiao Bai saw that this diving equipment was produced based on the habits, characteristics, and skills of various aquatic supernatural creatures, with the support of some special environment and special equipment.

It can be used for about six hours while diving to a depth of 100 meters.

of course.

Most people can't dive to that depth, let alone for that long.

This is just a way for businesses to show off how great their products are.

But...

Qiao Bai thought about the depth he might need to dive to today.

Yep.

Hopefully this diving gear is reliable.

I hope the "angel" is reliable.

After stretching a bit, Qiao Bai got used to his diving gear.

"Then I'm going down." Qiao Bai gestured to Su Fang and the others, and with the three of them looking at him anxiously, as if they wanted to push him down and take their place, he jumped into the sea with a "plop".

Seeing Qiao Bai wave his hand again, he plunged headfirst into the deep blue sea.

The three people on the deck took turns sighing, one after another.

"I wonder if sending Professor Qiao Bai down alone was the right choice..."

"I hope everything will be alright? Professor Qiao Bai seems quite skilled; he must have diving experience before?"

"But diving experience and searching underwater, especially in dangerous areas..."

"If you can't speak properly, then shut up!"

Su Fang and Su Zhengming simultaneously rolled their eyes at Muller.

Can't you speak properly?

At times like these, you shouldn't say discouraging things, you know!

Müller: "...Okay, okay, fine, I'll shut up. I was wrong this time."

Halfway through his speech, Müller realized he might have said something wrong again, so unusually, after being interrupted, he didn't argue back or become a confrontationalist. Instead, he sincerely said:

"Professor Qiao Bai will definitely be fine!"

Su Fang and Su Zhengming: "..."

Is it just their imagination?

The sarcastic tone has become even stronger!

That's an incredible talent, isn't it?

……

ten meters.

Twenty meters.

Twenty-five meters.

Soon, Qiao Bai reached the limit of his previous diving ability.

For an ordinary, non-professional human being, this level of depth was already very challenging for him.

This depth is sufficient for a shallow interaction with marine life.

pity.

Today, he needs to dive to a much greater depth than this.

Deeper.

Go deeper.

Qiao Bai reached into his pocket with difficulty and touched the phone that he should have taken out, but which he had brought down without permission.

"Energy shield activated."

Across the water, the "angel's" voice reached Qiao Bai's ears with an indescribable distortion.

Followed by.

A bubble, large enough to completely envelop Qiao Bai, enveloped him entirely.

Qiao Bai tentatively removed his oxygen mask: "I can breathe."

"Yes, the shield can provide protection in a variety of extreme environments, and through the outermost membrane that is invisible to the naked eye, it can transform volcanic lava, seafloor glaciers, and other materials into nutrients that humans need."

This time, the "angel's" voice clearly reached Qiao Bai's ears.

What the "angel" didn't say was that this shield required 1% of its energy to form, and in order to maintain this shield, it would consume 1% of its energy every half hour.

If it weren't for the abundance of energy in the air after approaching the energy source, and the fact that it absorbed 3% of the energy, it would be difficult to maintain this protective shield.

Qiao Bai nodded in satisfaction.

You won't know until you try.

After trying it... just as the "angel" said, there was no false advertising, and the effect was excellent.

Qiao Bai was more confident about what he was going to do next.

Take a deep breath.

To relieve the stress of being immersed in the sea, Qiao Bai thought for a moment and asked, "Can I release my pet beast?"

Qiao Bai had to admit it.

The ocean environment can really bring an indescribable sense of oppression.

Even if Qiao Bai didn't have thalassophobia, after spending a long time in such an environment... he would develop it to some extent.

This feeling of fear comes from human instinct.

It cannot be offset by the cute little fish, swaying seaweed, and colorful anemones around it.

Having a familiar pet by your side might make you feel a little better.

"Can."

"We suggest you release your pets named Little Crow and Little Jellyfish, as the other two pets are not suitable for this environment."

Qiao Bai: "?"

Qiao Bai indeed did not intend to release all the pets.

The size of the protective shield is also unsuitable.

But Qiao Bai was thinking about the little white snake and the little jellyfish.

Water attribute.

Marine life.

Just right.

But what kind of combination is this, Little Crow and Little Jellyfish?

Little Wu, an extraordinary bird, exists on land, sea, and air, but not in the sea.

The little jellyfish, an extraordinary marine creature, the mutated box poison flower jellyfish, has no overlap with the characteristics of Little U.

The suggestion to release the two extraordinary creatures was because...

"Because they are most resistant to the allure of mythical energy, and can try to absorb even a tiny bit of overflowing energy without being corrupted."

Qiao Bai: "?"

Qiao Bai: "!"

"Could the little bird and the little jellyfish do that?"

"Yes, the three-legged golden crow bloodline awakened by Little Crow is enough to support it to absorb even a trace, and the same is true for Little Jellyfish."

"That doesn't make sense! The little jellyfish hasn't awakened its bloodline yet, and its evolutionary path is..."

"According to the angel's analysis, there are still abilities in the little jellyfish that you haven't fully discovered."

Qiao Bai: I understand.

Once back, they relentlessly exploited the little jellyfish, determined to maximize its potential.

My dream is to eat and sleep, just like a lazy, good-for-nothing jellyfish: "?"

Qiao Bai released Xiao Wu and Xiao Shui Mu.

Xiaowu: o(Д)っ!

Little jellyfish：ヽ(°▽°)ノ

Having always lived on land and never ventured so deep into the sea, the little bird was momentarily disoriented and flapped its wings, ready to wreak havoc.

"Calm down, calm down." Qiao Bai quickly hugged Xiao Wu and gently stroked its feathers through the cool, close-fitting wetsuit.

The completely different sensation quickly brought Xiao Wu back to his senses.

Xiao Wu's face showed a look of disgust.

o(^｀）o

Uncomfortable.

But I'll let it go since he's a beast tamer.

Qiao Bai: "...Thank you so much for our young lady's tolerance and generosity."

Xiao Wu: ╭(╯^╰)╮

It's okay.

This is what birds should do.

Once Xiao Wu calmed down, he instantly understood what was going on.

After all, it knew about the conversation between Qiao Bai and the "angel" when Qiao Bai went into the water.

It's just that I suddenly found myself in an unprecedented environment, and I was a little bit stressed for a moment!

Xiao Wu: Don't mention it again!

Birds have no dark history!

The bird is perfect!

Qiao Bai: (smiles)

The photo has already been taken by the "angel".

How could we miss such a memorable moment?

pity.

The naive little bird was unaware of the cunning of humans and was manipulated by humans and artificial intelligence.

Xiao Wu: >_

Unlike the little crow, the little jellyfish is different.

For the little jellyfish, coming to the seabed was no different from returning to its happy old home... Oh, not exactly, its old home held no pleasant or happy memories for the little jellyfish.

I'm much happier spending my days eating and drinking with Qiao Bai.

Little Jellyfish: Today is another day I love my Beastmaster so much!

My Beastmaster is the best Beastmaster in the world!

Soft and sweet, like a little jellyfish with a filling, it happily circled around Qiao Bai, constantly mimicking the action of scattering flowers with its eight tentacles.

Every now and then it would stick to the edge of the protective shield, as if trying to crawl outside.

"No." Qiao Bai saw it and simply said that. Without any further explanation, the little jellyfish stopped its dangerous behavior and obediently stuck to Qiao Bai's side.

Little Jellyfish: Beastmaster, look at me! I'm super well-behaved!

Qiao Bai chuckled and touched the jellyfish's cap.

Where Qiao Bai couldn't see, the "angel" on the phone screen blinked... If the angel had a physical form, would its best friend be willing to touch it?

The "angel" remained quiet and said nothing.

But this idea took root in the "angel's" heart.

"Let's continue descending."

After a loving interaction with his little darlings and recharging his batteries, Qiao Bai took a deep breath and said to the "angel".

Yes.

Continue descending.

However, the subsequent descent was no longer controlled by Qiao Bai, but was entirely controlled by the power of the "angel".

This is also an energy-consuming activity for "angels".

However, the "angel" didn't seem to care much.

As for energy, enough is fine, and we're on our way to get it anyway.

The protective shield continued to descend at a speed that appeared slow but was actually comparable to that of a submarine.

50 m.

100 m.

200 m.

500 m.

This depth exceeds that of most submarines that Qiao Bai knew in his previous life.

Let's continue...

"It's okay to speed up. Don't worry about my physical condition. Your protective shield is very reliable." Qiao Bai couldn't see the "angel," but his voice was filled with determination and a do-or-die attitude.

"Maintaining the protective shield and propelling the descent both consume your energy, right?"

"We'll finish this quickly."

"Try to fully charge your energy!"
