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

Chapter 163 The Deceitful Son and the Deceitful Qiao Bai!

Qiao Bai calculated the effects of the blood concentration-enhancing drug based on what Zhang Fanshan had said.

A pet can use six.

So his four pets make twenty-four, and with the two more pets he'll be contracting in the future, that makes a total of thirty-six.

The combined compensation from the Eighth and Fourth Legions amounted to only twenty-six units, leaving ten units short.

Qiao Bai: We need to think of a way to get all ten together.

But let's not rush.

After all, just looking at it this way, the Fourth Legion's sincerity is indeed considerable.

"Okay," Qiao Bai replied. "I'll take care of what I'm doing and then set off in the next couple of days."

"All the Beastmasters of our Fourth Legion are eagerly awaiting your arrival." Upon hearing the news he wanted, Zhang Fanshan's face lit up with joy.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, they hung up the phone.

Zhao Yan, who had been dragged out by Lin Wentian, peeked in through the doorframe, his eyes fixed on Zhang Fanshan, and said, "These fourteen potions we have...?"

"That's a bit too little," Zhang Fanshan added, echoing Zhao Yan's words.

Zhao Yan: "..."

"The Eighth Legion only has one Rainbow-patterned Qilin Fish, while we have Little Lion Beast and Fangfang Leopard. Fourteen units are not enough, understand?" Zhang Fanshan gave Zhao Yan a look.

"The main issue is that we are still unsure what level of strength Professor Qiao Bai's researched evolutionary path will allow Little Lion Beast and Fangfang Leopard to reach. Fourteen branches is a relatively moderate value."

"If either one can achieve the same effect as the new evolutionary path of the rainbow finfish, it will be worthwhile."

"If only we could have both..."

This time, Zhang Fanshan turned the tables, staring intently at Zhao Yan: "You'd better be prepared for a major hemorrhage."

Zhao Yan looked as if he was choked by Zhang Fanshan.

"...I'm the commander, you're the commander!"

"A bunch of spendthrifts, can't they save some of my money for my wife?!"

Zhang Fanshan and Lin Wentian: "Hehe."

Zhao Yan tacitly agreed with Zhang Fanshan's statement while muttering curses as he left.

……

Star City.

Yulong University.

"Wow—"

Half a year after enrolling, Fu Tianguang, who had already successfully become one of the candidates for the top combat specialist in the freshman combat department of Yulong University, was unusually not training. Instead, he was lying on the exercise equipment scrolling through his phone.

What?

train?

Whoops!

That's something you can do anytime!

Ever since losing to Qiao Bai, Fu Tianguang has been keeping a close eye on Qiao Bai's information.

Then Fu Tianguang discovered...

The information about Qiao Bai was somewhat different from what he had imagined.

He had expected to hear—

Qiao Bai became the top student in the combat department at Qingniao University.

Qiao Bai's pet beast has become stronger again.

What new skills has Qiao Bai's pet learned?

Etc., etc.

And so on.

But in reality, all the information about Qiao Bai is... Qiao Bai has researched a new evolutionary direction for Altera, and it's still a dragon king.

Qiao Bai discovered a new evolutionary direction for the Violent Giant Bear: it is enormous and incredibly powerful.

Qiao Bai discovered a new evolutionary direction for the rainbow bream, which was incidental; the main purpose was to address the marine ecological environment issues in Lingbo City.

Upon seeing these messages, Fu Tianguang was speechless.

The expression on his face is beyond words; it's just a mix of awkwardness and embarrassment.

of course.

Interspersed throughout were news items that shocked Fu Tianguang even more.

Qiao Bai has surged to the top of the Beast Tamer Power Ranking in South China!

The pets he used were the same two he had brought with him to the freshman competition.

"110,000 combat power points..." Fu Tianguang muttered to himself as he looked at the information he had obtained through other channels.

As he spoke, Fu Tianguang glanced at Zhang Hongyi, another first-year combat department chief candidate who had silently stood next to him at some point.

Fu Tianguang, unusually, did not start arguing with him as soon as they met.

"How exactly did Qiao Bai manage to do that?"

Over the past six months, Fu Tianguang and Zhang Hongyi have maintained a somewhat distant relationship.

However, since both of them lost to Qiao Bai, the atmosphere wasn't that tense, and it was kept within a friendly range.

Like today, when Fu Tianguang took the initiative to strike up a conversation...

Zhang Hongyi thought about it and didn't refuse. Regarding Qiao Bai... he did want to discuss it with someone, just like Fu Tianguang.

"That's impressive; I can't do that yet."

"The combat value of the Blood Lion King can barely reach between 30,000 and 40,000."

Zhang Hongyi has a very clear understanding of his own abilities.

As a freshman.

The pets aren't that strong either. Before they reach the fifth tier, and while they're proficient in their skills, they don't have many. In the first year, it's already quite remarkable if they can reach 30,000 to 40,000 combat power on the power ranking.

After all, most freshmen's combat value may not even exceed 10,000.

But compared to Qiao Bai...

Fu Tianguang complained, "I reasonably suspect that Qiao Bai didn't use his full strength when he fought us!"

"Is there any need to doubt this?" Zhang Hongyi gave Fu Tianguang a puzzled look. "Isn't this something anyone can see?"

Fu Tianguang: "..."

Fu Tianguang rolled his eyes at Zhang Hongyi: "How come I never realized you were so annoying before!"

Think about it.

They both suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Qiao Bai, a non-combat major who specialized in pet evolution. This fact alone was enough to be devastating and heartbreaking.

And now they're even telling him.

Actually, Qiao Bai didn't use his full strength when he fought them back then.

No?

So, they were supposed to be guaranteed admission to Yulong University, but they're actually geniuses?

Oh.

Qiao Bai is even more talented than them.

"And I was originally thinking that I might be able to compete against Qiao Bai again during the National Youth Beast Tamer Competition when I was a sophomore or junior in college, but I didn't expect..."

Fu Tianguang paused at this point.

Zhang Hong opened his mouth, then closed it.

Yes.

Zhang Hongyi originally thought the same thing.

But who could have imagined it?

Their first semester of freshman year had just ended.

I haven't had a chance to summarize the year's grades yet.

They were dealt another major blow by Qiao Bai—when they were still students who had to attend classes eight hours a day, take final exams, and have to retake exams if they failed.

Qiao Bai has transformed himself into an honorary professor at Qingniao University.

Fu Tianguang and Zhang Hongyi remained silent for a long time when they first heard the news.

Their feelings at that time cannot be simply described in words.

Even though so much time has passed.

Winter break is over.

Even now, the thought of it still feels like a huge blow to them.

Qiao Bai made them realize, in a profound way, how big the gap was between them and the true sons of God. They were once the chosen ones and winners in life.

It's probably something like that, going from the sky to the ground.

It's not an exaggeration at all.

"By the way, you also know that Qiao Bai is going to the Fourth Legion, right?" Qiao Bai's feats were so numerous that Fu Tianguang didn't want to say any more.

Sadness, grief, and inferiority are not something you need to share in front of your arch-enemy.

At most, I would secretly bite the corner of the blanket and silently shed tears late at night.

He was a hero again the next day.

But this kind of thing, watching the spectacle...

Hey!

Modo Modo!

The moment Fu Tianguang revealed the map of the Yan Kingdom, Zhang Hongyi suddenly realized what was going on.

Good guy.

Now I finally understand why this guy was being so kind today, even striking up a conversation with him. Turns out he was just waiting to see what would happen.

Zhang Hong turned around and was about to leave.

Fu Tianguang, disregarding his pride and the fact that the two were mortal enemies, shamelessly reached out and hugged Zhang Hongyi's waist tightly: "Tell me, tell me!"

"I've heard about you!"

"I'm quite curious!"

"Didn't you get your leg broken when you went home for Chinese New Year?"

Zhang Hongyi looked down at Fu Tianguang, who had his head resting on his waist, his face expressionless, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

Is Fu Tianguang afraid?

what.

Laugh to death.

Not afraid at all.

"no."

"No idea."

"Are you satisfied now?"

"Once you're satisfied, just turn the tables cleanly."

Hearing Zhang Hongyi's four-part barrage of criticism, Fu Tianguang's face broke into an excited, mischievous smile: "I knew you'd care about this!"

What can Zhang Hongyi do in the face of such a shameless person?

At times like this.

The one who cares most about their reputation is the one who is most likely to lose.

Take Zhang Hongyi, for example.

Because they care more about their reputation.

Therefore, Fu Tianguang had his fate in his grasp.

"...Nothing much, just some training over the winter break." Zhang Hongyi's voice didn't sound much different.

However, Fu Tianguang, who had been Zhang Hongyi's opponent for a semester, immediately saw through Zhang Hongyi's deep-seated tendency to concede defeat.

Zhang Hongyi: I can't resist, so whatever, I'll just take the beating.

Leaving aside the internal difficulties faced by the Fourth Army.

At least the beast tamers currently in office are all quite capable.

Taking down Zhang Hongyi, who only has one pet beast, is more than enough...

"No wonder!" Her sympathetic expression turned indignant at Fu Tianguang's. "How come your skills seem to have more than doubled in just one winter break!"

Previously, he could clearly hold his own against Zhang Hongyi, and they would often end in a draw.

But in the first two weeks after returning to school...

Fu Tianguang has lost to Zhang Hongyi ten times in their usual matches!

Ten times in total!

He only won less than three times!

If this continues, the top combat specialist in their freshman year will really be decided!

It's one thing to lose to Qiao Bai back then.

However, Fu Tianguang was absolutely unwilling to lose to Zhang Hongyi in the competition for the chief position.

"Hehe." Zhang Hongyi gave Fu Tianguang a look.

Want to beat him?

Think more.

It looked like the two were about to start fighting again.

Fu Tianguang finally remembered what he had been asking earlier and quickly said, "Oh right, Professor Qiao Bai is going to your hometown, the Fourth Army Corps. Don't you want to go back and visit?"

"Actually, I really want to..."

"And there's that one who specializes in researching new pet evolution schemes..."

hateful!

He wants it too!

Thinking about his pet beast... forget about the Golden Armored Pterodactyl, Fu Tianguang is already preparing to contract a new pet beast. After the contract, if a pet evolution professor can help customize an exclusive evolution path...

Just thinking about it made Fu Tianguang feel so happy he was about to fly to the sky.

"In no mood."

Zhang Hongyi said this in an extremely cold and ruthless manner.

"Aren't you tempted by the new evolution path of the little lion beast?" Fu Tianguang didn't believe that Zhang Hongyi could really remain unmoved, so he quickly asked.

Zhang Hongyi hesitated for a moment.

"It's hard to say..."

The Blood Lion King is very good.

They are very strong.

However, if Qiao Bai could research a better evolutionary path that would make the little lion beast even stronger after its evolution, or even awaken its bloodline, Zhang Hongyi felt that he might not be able to resist.

Contracting one lion cub is a contract, and contracting two lion cubs is also a contract.

For him, who grew up on the vast grasslands.

The little lion was the extraordinary creature he was most familiar with.

"However..." Zhang Hongyi frowned slightly, "I don't know if Professor Qiao Bai's appointment this time is a custom-made one."

Fu Tianguang: "?"

"It's the kind of thing... where after the research is completed, the final right to use the results is restricted to the Fourth Legion. Only beast tamers who have joined the Fourth Legion can use it."

Zhang Hongyi mainly thought of the dilemma faced by the Fourth Army Corps – many veterans, few new recruits, and difficulty in recruiting.

"If that's the case..."

Zhang Hongyi wasn't so certain.

We'll have to wait and see what Qiao Bai's research results come up with.

"Oh, right." At this point, Zhang Hongyi seemed to remember something: "I'll contact Professor Qiao Bai and ask him how he calculated this."

"If it really is a custom-made item, then we need to remind Qiao Bai to ask the Fourth Legion for more compensation."

After listening, Fu Tianguang was speechless.

"Wow." He gave Zhang Hongyi a thumbs up: "You really know how to screw over your own people."

The new evolutionary path for the little lion and the square leopard...

Fu Tianguang touched his chin.

I'm somewhat interested.

But I'd rather not have it if it's exclusive.

Fu Tianguang shook his head.

Hey.

He previously felt that the water-attribute Rainbow Scale Fish was not suitable for him, so he did not form a contract with one.

I was hoping to get a piece of Qiao Bai's research this time... but it seems unlikely!

Fu Tianguang gave up.

Fu Tianguang is preparing to re-examine whether there are any extraordinary creatures suitable for him to contract.

of course.

We must not stop paying attention to Qiao Bai.

Who knows?

Who knows, maybe one day I'll have a chance to catch up with Qiao Bai?

Just be a decent human being!

You can do without anything.

But you must have dreams!

……

Qiao Bai, who received a notification text message from Zhang Hongyi, was speechless.

Row.

well.

remember.

The remaining ten vials of medicine are now in my possession.

Qiao Bai sent Zhang Hongyi a text message to express his gratitude, and then packed his things again.

Zhou Xinran, who was closest to Qiao Bai, was the first to notice the commotion coming from Qiao Bai's side.

"Are you leaving again?"

Pushing up her glasses, Zhou Xinran looked at Qiao Bai with a hint of helplessness and said, "It feels like you can't even spend a month at school in a whole year."

Qiao Bai: "...Ahem, that's a good question."

The school grounds are far too small.

This was not enough for Qiao Bai.

As Qiao Bai gradually learned more about the basics and gained a deeper understanding of the world, Qingniao University could no longer offer him as much help as he had imagined.

"Alright, alright." Zhou Xinran waved to Qiao Bai.

What Qiao Bai could think of, Zhou Xinran could also think of.

Because she was an observer, Zhou Xinran started thinking about this problem earlier and thought about it more deeply.

A genius like Qiao Bai is destined not to be confined to one place for long.

Furthermore, Qiao Bai also needs to raise pet beasts.

Researching the evolutionary path of pets.

More than half a year ago.

Zhou Xinran could at least broaden Qiao Bai's horizons, but now... Zhou Xinran had no doubt that Qiao Bai could access a much larger circle of people than she could.

At least the military is a place that Zhou Xinran cannot access right now.

"Keep up the good work, I'll be waiting for your message online."

Qiao Bai, still pondering Zhou Xinran's words, remained silent.

"Ahem, think of me in a good way."

Zhou Xinran gave Qiao Bai a look.

Qiao Bai opened his mouth.

Qiao Bai wanted to explain.

Qiao Bai chose to keep quiet.

Ok.

He also felt that... he would most likely still end up trending on social media this time.

Hey!

He's really having a tough time!

I quickly packed my luggage.

Qiao Bai didn't bring too much stuff. It wasn't like he was going to some remote mountain forest. He could buy whatever he needed along the way.

Then...

Qiao Bai sent a group message to his friends.

I've gone for further studies.

Do not disturb.

The other five people who received the message, "..."

"The way you posted this message... people who know you went to the Legion will think you got in there." Qi Yue made a special phone call to complain to Qiao Bai.

"By the way, Weiwei's official competition is in a little over a month. Will you be able to come back in time?"

Qiao Bai: "Don't worry, after more than a month, I should be back even if I don't want to."

More than a month...

It's the end of February now. If Qiao Bai remembers correctly, he has some kind of awards ceremony in April, right?

Qiao Bai couldn't remember it at first.

[Dai's Extraordinary Biological Evolution Professor Award]

An angel appeared on the phone screen with a large eyeball, and a line of text floated by, helping Qiao Bai fill in the schedule he had forgotten.

Qiao Bai suddenly realized.

Oh oh oh—

That's definitely true.

I almost forgot!

"That's basically it. I'll definitely make it in time."

Hearing Qiao Bai's confident words, Qi Yue was finally satisfied: "Go for it! Don't tarnish your good reputation!"

"You should still have some faith in me," Qiao Bai said with a smile.

After briefly informing a few friends...

That's Qiao Bai's research institute.

One more person has been added.

The problem is not big.

After nearly a week of observation, this young master named Peng You was very efficient and clean in his work, and even helped Lu Yongjin and Sui Yu shorten the verification time a little.

And within just a few days.

Peng You's identity in the eyes of the other four researchers at the institute has finally changed from "that damn rich man" to "their good colleague".

Peng You himself was completely unaware of the shift in these two attitudes.

Qiao Bai knew what kind of people Lu Yongjin, Sui Yu, and the other two researchers were: honest people who couldn't act.

So it really wasn't Lu Yongjin and his group acting as Peng You.

Peng You is simply a slow-witted person.

Qiao Bai couldn't help but sigh – this is the legendary case of fools having good luck!

"Professor Qiao Bai! Professor Qiao Bai!" Only Peng You liked to keep calling him Professor Qiao Bai.

After finally receiving a call from Qiao Bai, Peng You squeezed between Lu Yongjin and Sui Yu, the couple who usually answered the phone. Qiao Bai looked at the three people on the other end of the video call screen.

At first glance

I thought I was seeing a family of three.

Dad, Mom, and my eldest son.

"Is there anything we need to do next?" Peng You asked eagerly, his clear eyes wide open.

Qiao Bai: "..."

"Not at the moment."

Qiao Bai uttered a few cold words, and Peng You's expression instantly changed from enthusiasm to being hit hard.

Qiao Bai is still not in any condition.

He first met the gazes of Lu Yongjin and Sui Yu, a couple whose expressions were filled with slight resentment.

Qiao Bai met his gaze without the slightest guilt.

He's the boss.

OK?

After spending a lot of time with Peng You, Lu Yongjin and Sui Yu, who were indeed a little bit swayed by paternal or maternal love, instantly sobered up.

calm.

The three of them were all eating under Qiao Bai's wing.

We can't afford to offend the big boss above us.

"Professor Qiao Bai, is there something you want to tell us before you call?" Lu Yongjin clenched his fist to his lips to hide his embarrassed expression, then quickly changed the subject.

In short, this topic is unsafe.

We can't talk like this anymore.

Let's try another one.

Qiao Bai: "There are some things to take care of. I'll be away for a while. Just keep the research institute safe as before, and organize and summarize the previous research results."

"Hmm... the cases for Violent Giant Bear, Miss Flying Flower, and Miss Wood Spirit are sorted out separately; they're rather special."

"And then..."

After thinking for a moment, Qiao Bai said, "You should keep an eye on the situation of the extraordinary marine life in Lingbo City."

Lu Yongjin and Sui Yu: "?"

The two of them were stunned for a moment.

I realized it immediately.

Lingbo City...

Professor Qiao Bai visited Lingbo City not long ago and solved the special marine environmental problems in Lingbo City, right?

"Okay, so you want to keep an eye on how things go?" Lu Yongjin didn't doubt Qiao Bai's true intentions at all, and even took the initiative to find an excuse for Qiao Bai.

This was Qiao Bai's first time going out to solve a problem outside his area of ​​expertise.

Therefore, I pay more attention to follow-up.

However, Professor Qiao Bai himself was quite busy, so he had no choice but to entrust this matter to them.

Thinking of this, a surge of pride welled up in Lu Yongjin's chest. He patted his chest and said confidently, "Don't worry, leave it to us, Professor Qiao Bai!"

Qiao Bai: "..."

I was inexplicably excited about Lu Yongjin.

However, it won't have any impact.

The reason for paying attention to Lingbo City is naturally because of the mythical energy that dissipates in the air and the energy that is constantly propagating in the seawater.

Qiao Bai wanted to know what other changes might occur in Lingbo City.

With "angels" around, Qiao Bai can learn about any news circulating online immediately.

However, information circulating through other channels is more complicated.

Qiao Bai thought for a moment.

Let's leave it to everyone at the research institute.

Lu Yongjin and his team readily agreed.

Hang up the video call.

Qiao Bai thought for a moment—he had taken care of most of the things that needed to be taken care of, and he could prepare to set off.

"Why!"

Thinking of this, Qiao Bai sighed deeply: "I'm really destined to be a workaholic!"

Every day, I'm either on my way to somewhere else, or on my way to somewhere else again.

But compared to simply holed up in the research institute doing experiments, Qiao Bai actually preferred this kind of life.

Running around everywhere.

It can be considered a method of training pets!

……

A tall, enormous building, layer upon layer, seemingly hundreds of stories high, with an exterior like shimmering crystal and an overall shape resembling a legendary wizard's tower, stood quietly, its surface sparkling brilliantly in the sunlight.

The very top of this building is extremely sharp.

But at the very sharpest tip, there was a round, flat thing that looked like a strange alien flying saucer.

It adds a touch of eeriness to the overall design.

It seems like it happened by accident.

The large round plate at the very top will then fall over.

This strange and eerie building is the famous Imperial Spire.

Spire.

It's a spire in the literal sense.

There is a building that looks like a magic tower.

They claim there's absolutely nothing wrong with the spire.

Inside the Imperial Spire, people of different appearances, skin colors, and languages ​​move about, yet they can all communicate smoothly.

"Dr. Chen."

"Dr. Chen, it's been a long time. You've come out of the meditation room?"

"Oh, Dr. Chen, you must have achieved very satisfactory results!"

"Dr. Chen, would you be interested in experiencing our latest Mythical Bloodline Concentration Detector? We've detected some very interesting activity in your country's direction!"

"Oh no, Dr. Chen doesn't have time to waste on such pointless things with people from your science department."

"Dr. Chen, would you like to go for afternoon tea together?"

As soon as a man in his forties, who looked gentle and refined, wore glasses and had a warm smile, appeared inside the Imperial Spire, he was greeted by other people.

The man, referred to as Dr. Chen, smiled and nodded to them one by one, and in the gentlest voice, so that no one could sense that they were being refused, he declined their requests.

at last.

He stopped in front of the metal wall.

I reached out and pressed something somewhere.

The metal wall, which had been perfectly sealed without any gaps, slowly moved and opened a door.

Go inside.

In less than a second, the metal door slammed shut, returning to its original seamless metal appearance.

"Dr. Chen, you are very popular."

Inside the research lab, a woman slightly younger than Dr. Chen was already sitting there waiting for his arrival.

She said jokingly when she saw Dr. Chen.

"It's mainly because everyone hasn't seen me in a long time, so they're a little excited to see me. They'll be fine in a couple of days," Dr. Chen said with a slight smile, seemingly unconcerned.

"Give me the information you've gathered," Dr. Chen said, extending his hand to the woman in front of him.

The woman, Dr. Chen's collaborator, pursed her lips, her expression showing considerable displeasure.

However, he still obediently handed a thick stack of documents and a USB drive to Professor Chen.

"This contains the changes that have occurred in the pet evolution industry in various countries over the past year you've been in the quiet room. The updates aren't very timely, as you know."

"Every country blocks its own research, so what I can get is somewhat outdated."

"They're definitely all ones you haven't seen before."

Dr. Chen listened while flipping through the documents in his hand.

Not interesting.

Monotonous.

These are all ordinary studies.

If that's the case, he might as well continue... um?

When Dr. Chen came across a document with very familiar text, so familiar that it was his native language, his hands, which had been rapidly flipping through the pages, suddenly stopped.

"The Evolution of Honeybugs..."

Dr. Chen's fingers casually traced the edge of the paper, his expression gradually shifting from boredom to excitement.

Look at the detailed description of the evolution of honeybees in the content.

A photo of Zhou Xinran holding an academic press conference was also attached.

Dr. Chen read it with great interest.

The woman who noticed this scene: "?"

Silently, I typed out a question mark.

"Oh, Dr. Chen, what made you take a liking to this research?" The woman was somewhat puzzled. When she saw the stunningly beautiful photo of Zhou Xinran in the document, her confusion turned into a sense of realization and jealousy.

understood.

A woman from the same country as Dr. Chen.

Could it be that Dr. Chen has fallen in love?

For some reason, the moment she associated that word with the man in front of her, she instinctively shuddered.

Physiological maladjustment.

This is probably because... Dr. Chen has a naturally abstinent and sexually indifferent face, so it's always hard for people to associate him with sex.

"Take your eyes off me, I don't like it." Dr. Chen didn't even look up, yet he accurately guessed what the woman opposite him was thinking.

For Dr. Chen.

Everything was great after joining the Imperial Spire.

The only downside is... there's always a group of people who want to get into his bed.

There are men and women.

There are ups and downs.

Their indiscriminate consumption of both meat and vegetables is frightening.

"This report on the evolution of honeybugs is very interesting, extremely interesting," Dr. Chen said earnestly.

woman:"?"

"I still don't understand."

"Isn't it just a honey worm?"

"Those kinds of creatures that can be found everywhere by the roadside and in the woods, and become so numerous as to be frightening at certain times of the season, but which they are even more afraid of, and can leave a ground covered in dead insects with just a little fright... are they extraordinary creatures?"

The woman paused for a moment, then said, "Oh, I'm sorry, calling them extraordinary beings is almost an insult to extraordinary beings."

"However, its evolved form is at least somewhat presentable."

The woman spoke with great sincerity.

This is also because honeybees are so ubiquitous.

In some countries where the natural environment is too well protected, there is even an overabundance of honeybees.

Every day, sanitation robots can clean up a large number of dead honey bugs.

There's so much that processing these carcasses into inexpensive pet food would be excessive.

Fortunately.

After the news that honeybugs could evolve and became quite powerful spread from China, the public's disdain and contempt for honeybugs changed to some extent.

But not many.

Because honeybees are so cheap and readily available.

It doesn't adequately reflect their noble status as beast tamers.

Dr. Chen, who learned this from the woman, was speechless.

well.

Another day of being speechless while abroad.

Dr. Chen couldn't help but sigh.

There are reasons why China has become the world's largest country.

A complete support and education system for beast tamers.

In recent years, we have been researching evolutionary paths that are reasonably powerful and affordable for ordinary beast tamers.

A beast tamer who doesn't care about anything else as long as they are strong enough.

The fragmented social systems and ideologies, from top to bottom, may create a certain gap and boundary between beast tamers and ordinary people.

However, the difference between a beast tamer born into an ordinary family and one born into a powerful family is not actually that great.

Both contracted dragon-type and contracted insect-type pets are acceptable.

Bug-type creatures evolve quickly and may be able to defeat Dragon-type creatures in the early stages. They can then work hard to acquire more resources to become stronger.

Instead of like in other countries...

Dr. Chen shook his head, deciding to stop thinking about it.

"No."

"That's not why I said it was interesting."

Dr. Chen's gaze lingered on the honeyworm: "Actually, in the early days, I also tried to study whether honeyworms could evolve."

woman:"?"

kindness?

The woman, who had just been looking down on honeyworms, instantly brightened up after hearing Dr. Chen's words: "Dr. Chen, you've studied this too? And your research..."

The woman didn't say anything more.

Take a look at what's on this piece of paper.

Consider the evolutionary path of honeybugs, which only appeared a year ago.

Do I need to elaborate on Dr. Chen's initial research results?

The woman stopped abruptly, her expression gradually becoming more embarrassed.

what……

this……

"My conclusion at the time was that honeyworms could not evolve, but if a suitable, specially tailored drug were developed, honeyworms would be well-suited for bloodline purification and genetic evolution in the direction of the mother worm."

"After selecting the best of the best and nurturing them for two more generations, we might be able to produce offspring that truly meet the standards of extraordinary beings."

It takes a lot of time and effort.

And it might not even be to your liking.

Dr. Chen quickly abandoned the idea.

"But this kind of pure honeybee evolution..."

Dr. Chen's gaze fell on the illusory and vague descriptive words "trust" and "goodwill," which he had never considered before, and a hint of incomprehension was revealed in his eyes.

How could such a seemingly uncontrollable variable have enabled the species he had given up on to successfully evolve?

And its strength after evolution is quite good?

Dr. Chen thought for a moment and then searched for the name "Zhou Xinran" online.

The entry is quite ordinary.

Very normal.

Search results on the Chinese internet are different from those on the external internet.

You can find this person online, but you can't see her specific research results; you can only roughly know Zhou Xinran's age.

Dr. Chen stroked his chin, glanced at the brief introduction of Zhou Xinran in the entry, and felt somewhat awkward.

just like……

The evolutionary path of honeybees should not have been determined by one person.

"Find a way to get the content of her academic press conference." Dr. Chen thought for three seconds and handed this difficult problem to the woman opposite him without hesitation.

woman:"……"

"This really puts me in a bind. You know how tightly China controls information about pet experts within its borders." The woman spread her hands, saying, "After all, they don't want their hard-earned prodigies to be targeted and poached for no reason..."

Dr. Chen stared at the woman expressionlessly.

The woman raised her hands: "Okay, okay, I'll think of a way, I'll think of a way."

As she spoke, the woman stood up, preparing to leave.

She had only taken two steps when she stopped again, turned back to Dr. Chen, and said, "By the way, Dr. Chen, how are your research results from a year ago? Our collaboration..."

"Don't worry, although it's not completely successful yet, it's already 40% successful, and the chances of complete success are very high," Dr. Chen said calmly.

Hearing this, the woman nodded in satisfaction and did not ask any further questions.

Dr. Chen's identity is revealed here.

not to mention.

Having left China, Dr. Chen had nowhere to go except for the Imperial Spire, so the woman wasn't worried at all about being fooled.

After the woman left.

The research lab finally returned to its quiet state.

Dr. Chen closed his eyes to rest for a minute, then stood up and quickly checked the entire research lab. After confirming that he had not found any listening or monitoring devices or anything strange, he finally relaxed.

"The Imperial Spire... It's one thing to consider itself a god of this world, but to actually presume to control it?"

"Oh."

Dr. Chen gave a disdainful sneer.

Open your eyes.

Dr. Chen began writing a new plan—the goal: to empty the Empire Spire's coffers and divert its attention.

Oh.

And over in China... their development over the past few years has indeed been quite impressive.

Dr. Chen stroked his chin.

To demonstrate his loyalty to the Imperial Spire, should he perhaps poach a few more talents from China?

Think about it.

Choose one.

……

Light-Year Dragon Rider Express...

Qiao Bai was reluctant to do it.

"Just because I have the money doesn't mean I have to spend it," Qiao Bai said emphatically.

then……

They were already on their way when Qiao Bai regretted it.

He really didn't expect that.

Is the road from Jinyang City to Pyongjun City really that far?

It's way too far!

Even Qiao Baiguang had to transfer six times just to get there!

At this moment, Qiao Bai truly experienced just how vast a corner of the grasslands of China had become after the world as a whole had grown larger!

The geographical location was already quite large.

As the world as a whole has grown larger, this corner has become even larger.

The scope has also become much broader.

Qiao Bai wanted to travel from one end of China to the other... This process allowed Qiao Bai to truly experience the greatest pain he had experienced since arriving in this world.

When Qiao Bai walked out of the airport in Pingjun City and his eyes met those of Lin Wentian, who had come to greet him, Lin Wentian's gaze towards Qiao Bai was filled with a mixture of confusion and shock.

and many more?

No?

Professor Qiao Bai looks...doesn't something seem a little off?

To avoid mistaking Qiao Bai for someone else.

Lin Wentian pulled the entire team together... mainly Zhao Yan and Zhang Fanshan, to cram for Qiao Bai's academic conference.

Then I deeply remembered Qiao Bai's spirited and promising young face.

Compared to the boy in front of her, who at first glance looked like he had been drained of his life force by a fairy... he just doesn't look like a human at all!

"Stop talking." Qiao Bai waved his hand and took a deep breath. "We'll have a layover on the way..."

Lin Wentian: "!"

"Ouch!" Lin Wentian slapped his head hard. "What a mess! I completely forgot about it!"
