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

Chapter 191 Where is the supposedly clear-headed and foolish college student?

When Qiao Bai returned, he found a little bird clinging to him like crazy.

Xiao Wu: I refuse to perform as a pet!

Refuse to let pets take care of children!

Xiao Wu practically curled up into Qiao Bai's arms.

Ah Yong and Ah Yun looked longingly at the little bird nestled obediently in Qiao Bai's arms, letting Qiao Bai stroke its fur. Their longing was almost palpable in their eyes.

"Ah Yong, Ah Yun, come here." Su Wenyu watched helplessly from the side.

The two children are at an age where they are neither too young nor too old, and if they are not careful, they will become unruly children. As long as it is not a wild or extraordinary creature, they dare to go up and touch it, and they both want to go up and touch it.

Moreover, the two children know Qiao Bai, so they are more relaxed when they get along with him.

This is not.

Little Wu disliked it.

"Didn't you already see Big Brother's pet beast before?" Su Wenyu was referring to the two children's previous meeting with Qiao Bai on an online forum.

If Su Wenyu were to evaluate it, there would only be two words: reckless.

Who knows if the person you've met is a good one?

There are bad people in this world too.

Even if the meeting was on their own turf, given the atmosphere and situation in Red Earth City just a day ago, if something had actually happened... Su Wenyu still felt lingering fear just thinking about it.

But she mostly blamed herself.

It was because of her disappearance that the two children took such a risk and did such an unsafe thing.

"But the big brother's bird's feathers look so cool now!"

"Hmm! It's even bigger than before! And much more imposing!"

As A-Yun and A-Yong talked, their bright, seemingly shining eyes never left Xiao-Wu.

Upon hearing this, Su Wenyu paused for a moment.

Has this bird undergone any changes?

Su Wenyu immediately thought of the unconscious Qiao Bai and the pet on his body whose appearance was unclear, but which was definitely... unusual.

Is this the one?

Thinking about Su Wenyu, her gaze unconsciously fell on Xiao Wu, and she carefully examined him.

Qiao Bai noticed Su Wenyu's gaze.

Considering what A-Yong and A-Yun had just said, Qiao Bai sighed inwardly, but he wasn't too troubled.

after all.

Qiao Bai had already formed some thoughts about this matter after seeing Xiao Wu's new appearance last night.

The changes in Xiao Wu couldn't be hidden from view.

There are more than one or two people who know Xiao Wu.

"Professor Qiao Bai, did your pet evolve in the secret realm?" Su Wenyu thought for a moment, then pointed at Xiao Wu and asked curiously.

Then she pursed her lips and said with a very embarrassed smile, "Because at that time, in that dark little room... we seemed to see Professor Qiao Bai's pet beast glowing."

"When did it evolve?"

Su Wenyu didn't mention this to anyone else, but in front of Qiao Bai, the person directly involved, she still told him what she had seen and what she felt was somewhat unusual.

Qiao Bai glanced at her and said calmly:

"It's not really an evolution, Ulquiorra's current form is already its final form."

"It's just that Little Wu hasn't fully grown up yet; it's still in its growth phase. Once it comes into contact with some suitable energy or resources, it will start to grow rapidly."

Qiao Bai answered in a very serious manner.

When asked, there wasn't a single lie.

Growth period.

Appropriate energy and resources.

Continue to grow.

Each of these points perfectly reflects Xiao Wu's true condition.

This is the resource I came into contact with... Qiao Bai saw the backpack he brought out from the forbidden land of the red soil by the bedside.

Because of Qiao Bai's identity as a professor of pet animals, after rescuing him, Jun Du and the others did not conduct any in-depth investigations or questioning. They simply returned all of Qiao Bai's personal belongings to him after confirming that he was safe.

They were placed neatly in the ward.

just.

If Su Wenyu hadn't come, Qiao Bai would have asked around.

He took out the red mineral that he had knocked down earlier from his backpack.

"This is it." Qiao Bai took out a red mineral about half the size of his palm and placed it in front of Su Wenyu.

"Actually, I'd like to ask you too, what is this?"

Without pretending, Qiao Bai genuinely felt lost.

What is this thing?

Red ore? Red rock crystal?

Redstone and red soil are definitely impossible.

Su Wenyu, who considered herself very familiar with the forbidden land of red soil and knew its various resources like the back of her hand, suddenly looked bewildered upon seeing this red mineral.

"Can I...can I pick it up and take a look?" Su Wenyu asked Qiao Bai first.

After thinking about how he felt when he replenished his energy by holding the red mineral... Qiao Bai nodded in agreement.

We should give it a try, no matter what.

In Hongtu City, Qiao Bai couldn't find a more suitable candidate than Su Wenyu for the time being.

Because of A-Yun and A-Yong's relationship, Qiao Bai and Su Wenyu maintained a harmonious and friendly relationship.

With Qiao Bai's permission, Su Wenyu reached out and picked up the red mineral she had never seen before, examining it from all angles.

Qiao Bai also paid attention to Su Wenyu's expression, not missing a single detail or even the trembling of her eyelashes.

After confirming several times that Su Wenyu did not show any surprise or astonishment, Qiao Bai was certain that the other party probably did not feel the energy flowing in her body.

Otherwise, absolutely no one could experience this without showing any unusual reaction the first time.

Su Wenyu indeed did not feel it.

After examining the red mineral in his hand repeatedly, Su Wenyu shook his head and put it down.

"Indeed... I've never seen it before."

As she spoke, Su Wenyu turned on her phone, quickly opened the photo album, and placed it in front of Qiao Bai.

"These photos show the highest quality red mineral and red rock crystal I have ever seen."

Turn the page.

"These are the more common red minerals and red rock crystals."

As for redstone and red soil, just as Qiao Bai hadn't considered them, Su Wenyu hadn't considered them at all.

They are different in shape.

Qiao Bai looked down at the photos.

I truly understand what it means to not know until you see it, and to be shocked by the comparison.

The red mineral that Qiao Bai took out had a vivid and deep color, just like a ruby. If you didn't know, you could easily mistake it for the real thing.

of course.

If sold as a ruby, it certainly wouldn't fetch as much as if sold as a resource.

But the red ore and red rock crystals in the picture...

How so?

The red ore is only slightly similar to the red mineral that Qiao Bai took out.

The biggest difference lies in transparency.

The red mineral that Qiao Bai took out had a very high degree of purity and transparency.

You can still vaguely see fingerprints or palm prints underneath when you hold it in your hand.

But red ore is different.

Although it is red, it is not the bright red of red minerals, but more like the red of blood that has dried and solidified over many years.

The texture it feels like in your hand is more like rock than gemstone.

To be honest...

Red rock crystals are more like gemstones than red minerals.

However, its internal structure is too cloudy, with cotton-like fibers, threads, and mottled impurities, giving the red rock crystal the appearance of a low-quality gemstone.

Seeing this, Qiao Bai touched his chin.

"So this is a special resource that has never appeared in the Forbidden Land of Red Soil before?" Qiao Bai said uncertainly.

Su Wenyu confirmed for him: "That's right."

"I've never seen this before."

Su Wenyu, after all, made her living in the forbidden land of red soil, so she was certain of this much of the situation.

"Did your pet beast use this energy and then... grow?" Su Wenyu changed the word "evolution" that she almost blurted out to "grow".

Qiao Bai nodded without any guilt.

Correct.

That's it.

That's right!

What?

A projection of a three-legged golden crow?

do not know.

He knows nothing.

Su Wenyu didn't think much of it; to her, Qiao Bai's explanation sounded reasonable.

The only thing that shocked her a little was... "Professor Qiao Bai, you really have a lot of courage, facing resources you don't even know..."

How dare they let their pet use it!

Although it is said that fortune favors the bold.

But who wouldn't want to be safer?

Qiao Bai spread his hands, looking quite helpless, and said, "Actually, I'm a little worried too."

"But at first I mistook it for red ore or red rock crystal, and then Xiao Wu also showed a bit of desire for it."

Little Crow: "!"

Little Wu immediately began to struggle in Qiao Bai's arms.

Wait, wait, wait?

Why are birds being blamed again?

What does this have to do with birds?

They have absolutely no connection!

Qiao Bai reached out and patted Xiao Wu's back a few times.

Communicate with Little Crow in your mind.

Calm down, calm down.

Xiao Wu: ╭(╯^╰)╮

Watching the interaction between Qiao Bai and Xiao Wu, Su Wenyu couldn't help but smile slightly.

If Su Wenyu had any doubts about Qiao Bai's words before, thinking that Qiao Bai was hiding something but just didn't want to say it...

After witnessing the interaction between a person and a bird, which resembled a father interacting with his spoiled daughter in a coquettish manner.

Su Wenyu, who has an uncaring younger brother and a sister who is sometimes caring and sometimes not, immediately put herself in that situation.

As a beast tamer, Qiao Bai dotes on his pet beasts quite a bit.

Hey.

no way.

Everyone is having a hard time.

I understand, I completely understand.

"Fortunately, the result is good. Professor Qiao Bai, your pet will definitely be very powerful after it grows up," Su Wenyu said with her blessings.

……

Qiao Bai did not deliberately hide his conversation with Su Wenyu.

Su Wenyu also guessed Qiao Bai's thoughts from her willingness to answer every question. She would answer politely when asked, but would refuse to answer questions that involved more private matters.

soon.

There was absolutely no need for Qiao Bai to explain a second time; the events he encountered in the forbidden land of the Red Soil were instantly spread far and wide.

This includes Xiao Wu's growth.

All of these have been given reasonable and perfect explanations.

Through their powerful imaginations, these people completed the process of self-persuasion.

Qiao Bai shook his head upon seeing this.

Look.

No need to lie at all, it's done.

Undeniably, his social status also played a role in his ability to achieve such ease.

"It seems I still need to study pet evolution properly when I get back, and strive to become a first-level researcher as soon as possible," Qiao Bai murmured.

Their social status has improved.

Then he can have a better time to party.

cough cough.

This is something that cannot be said aloud.

After a brief two-day stay in the hospital, Qiao Bai was discharged smoothly, feeling perfectly healthy.

Ning Ruxue, Ms. Hui, and You Ke, the newly appointed president of the Beast Taming Alliance in Red Earth City, all came to see Qiao Bai.

The first two are simply concerned about Qiao Bai.

The latter, however, came to make a deal with Qiao Bai with good intentions.

"Professor Qiao Bai, could you spare some of the red mineral you found in the forbidden red soil for us?" You Ke asked Qiao Bai earnestly.

After hearing that Qiao Bai had discovered a new resource similar to red ore in the Red Soil Secret Realm, You Ke had been wanting to come and see Qiao Bai.

I also chatted with Qiao Bai about some win-win deals.

However, since the situation in Red Earth City and Flame City has just returned to normal, and the Forbidden Land of Red Earth is still temporarily sealed off, Yuko is so busy with work that she barely has time to breathe.

If it weren't for her experience in handling large amounts of paperwork, Youke felt she wouldn't be able to hold onto this position.

She experienced it again.

Shi Kang must have been so lucky to have her as his assistant back then; she still hasn't found an assistant who can satisfy her.

Yu Ke is already considering whether to poach one of her peers.

The job is quite relevant to my job.

But that's all for the future.

What she cares about more now is the resources that Qiao Bai brought.

If it were truly comparable to red ore or red rock crystal, or even something like redstone, it could help Red Earth City, which had just suffered a significant blow, turn its current predicament around.

After seeing the red mineral that Qiao Bai brought out with his own eyes, You Ke's eyes lit up even more.

Although the energy it contains has not yet been tested, and the specific use of this resource has not yet been determined.

But Yu Ke dares to say with absolute certainty – it's good stuff!

This must be something good!

Testing?

That warm energy can be felt simply by touching it.

She couldn't wait to get more.

Qiao Bai: "..."

"I didn't bring much with me, only a dozen or so yuan."

"And most of them are relatively small, this one is considered large, so we probably can't provide much for you, Chairman."

It's normal for something good to be coveted.

But to contribute too much...

Sorry.

impossible.

Something that doesn't exist.

Before Youke could speak, Qiao Bai brought Xiao Wuti out again.

"Moreover, my pet beast can grow rapidly after absorbing the energy inside, so..." The rest is unnecessary to say.

Youke instantly understood what Qiao Bai meant.

Qiao Bai smiled.

It's not impossible to allocate a small portion to Red Earth City, but whether or not they'll budge on that depends on how much sincerity Red Earth City can demonstrate.

Exaggerating value.

This indicates that it is important.

That's the premise for demanding exorbitant prices.

Yuko: "..."

A beam of light reflected off Yuko's glasses.

Looking at Qiao Bai, who was clearly still a teenager, she felt as if her heart was bleeding.

Why?

Why are young people these days so cunning and shrewd?

Where did the supposedly clear-headed and naive college student go?

Oh.

Qiao Bai is no longer a college student.

Professor Qiao Bai is a social being.
