Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 45 Selling Monsters

The military squad's so-called safe haven was actually located in a relatively well-preserved hotel.

There are many huge metal boxes here, containing various research instruments.

At this moment, the military team members were packing up various experimental instruments, preparing to take them back.

As for the prisoners from the HR Alliance squad, they were hastily bandaged up to ensure they wouldn't die, and then thrown into a nearby room where they were guarded by several flying monsters.

Even now, everyone was still feeling somewhat amazed, discussing the black-crowned golden eagle and the numerous flying monsters.

Seeing the group's excitement, Qin Mu considered for a moment and then voiced his idea.

"Professor, do you think the military would want some of the tamed monsters I sell to them?"

The beast-general level monsters I tamed are capable of understanding commands. Equipping them with a communication system or something similar allows them to cooperate in battle without any problems.

This idea came about when Professor Zhou mentioned that the price of a living monster is more than ten times that of a dead monster.

Qin Mu then realized that his previous thinking seemed to have gone astray.

He actually only wanted to hunt monsters like an ordinary martial artist!

Even Luo Feng knew to steal the Ironclad Dragon's eggs to sell!

He never imagined that he could directly sell monsters, or even insectoid creatures.

Leaving aside the swarm, there are already a large number of Zerg-like flying monsters, which can be sold.

Upon hearing this, Professor Zhou's eyes lit up, and even He Jingtian and the others stopped what they were doing.

"Of course! I'll take as many as you sell!"

"What if you sell those flying beasts you've tamed?"

The military will be ecstatic!

Professor Zhou answered immediately.

"Can you command and coordinate operations?"

Upon hearing this, He Jingtian was taken aback and asked a question.

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, He Jingtian's expression changed, and he immediately spoke.

"Yes, we in the military will take them all! I'll contact my superiors right away, and the price will definitely satisfy you!"

Just kidding, we can cooperate with Beast General-level monsters, or even Lord-level monsters, in battle!

We must buy it! We'll sell everything we own to buy it!

How much does a regular fighter jet cost? At least a billion!

This ordinary fighter jet has combat power at the level of a beast general!

If their team were equipped with a flying monster of the beast general level, their combat power would definitely double!

I'm not thinking about lord-level beasts, but a high-level beast general-level Black Crown Golden Eagle or Wind Chaser Eagle would be fine.

He Jingtian immediately raised his combat watch, dialed his superior's number, and reported the situation.

Sure enough, they immediately agreed: the military would buy it as long as Qin Mu sold it!

Price is negotiable. A military war god-level expert arrived by fighter jet as soon as He Jingtian and his group sent out a distress message, and we can discuss it face-to-face.

"Brother Mu, are you selling your Lord-level Black-crowned Golden Eagle?"

He Jingtian, who was already over thirty years old, suddenly asked with a smirk.

"I won't sell that for now; I need it too."

Qin Mu smiled too. Of course, he wasn't going to sell it now, since he only had a Lord-level monster in his possession.

But once we have more enslaved lord-level monsters and the price is right, we can consider it.

After thinking it through, Qin Mu realized that selling Zerg-like monsters, or even Zerg units, was no different from Hong selling intelligent fighter jets; they were both selling level-two access privileges!

Why not use the military's help to raise their own swarms?

The real control is still in their own hands, and they can even use it to monitor the military's every move in real time!

As for whether the military will discover the Zerg's anomalies?

That's really overthinking it. If the military had that capability, they wouldn't be forced to live in the base city by a group of monsters.

"It's a pity that I have to go back to the base city for school, otherwise I could have considered enslaving that low-level lord-level swamp salamander and selling it to the military."

Looking at Professor Zhou, Qin Mu seemed to speak unconsciously.

What was your main purpose in joining the military? Wasn't it to learn biological technology?

This is a big shot in biological research right in front of me. If I don't seize this opportunity, I'll be too stupid!

Professor Zhou, everyone around him looked puzzled.

"School starts? What kind of school?"

"Enslaving that lord-level swamp salamander? You have a way to enslave that lord-level swamp salamander?"

In an instant, Professor Zhou ran up to Qin Mu and asked anxiously.

These enslaved swamp salamanders that can cooperate with experiments are incredibly valuable!

"Professor Zhou, I may have forgotten to mention that I am actually a freshman majoring in biology at the First Military Academy in Jiangnan. School is about to start."

Qin Mu spread his hands, looking innocent.

"After I became a psychic, I discovered that my talent as a beast tamer might have been awakened because I had been interested in this area since I was a child."

Later, I discovered that in-depth research in biology greatly helped my animal taming skills.

After I joined the military, I wasn't directly assigned to the army. Instead, I first went to the First Military Academy in Jiangnan for a period of time as a member of the military.

Professor Zhou and the others around him were stunned and felt somewhat bewildered.

You, a mere initial-level War God of Spiritual Master, are going to study at a military academy?

Or is it a new student?

This is absolutely outrageous!

"Register? You have to come all this way for something so trivial?"

I'll just call the principal and ask him to help me handle these things. Are you interested in biology?

Come here, let me see how your basics are.

Upon hearing Qin Mu's words and understanding the reason for the matter, Professor Zhou's face beamed with a smile, his old face as happy as a chrysanthemum.

Having switched roles, Professor Zhou began asking professional questions, starting with the simplest and gradually delving deeper.

Qin Mu answered based on the knowledge he had learned on his own these past few days. At first it was okay, but gradually it became difficult until he understood nothing at all.

"Not bad, your basic knowledge is pretty good!"

Even before school has started, the knowledge you've acquired through self-study is already comparable to that of a typical second-year university student.

Overall, their knowledge base is still somewhat lacking, but they understand some issues very well and have their own ideas.

Professor Zhou seemed very satisfied and nodded in approval.

"Are you interested in coming to my team? I can arrange for you to join the project group and learn directly from your senior classmates."

If you want to pursue postgraduate studies or anything like that later, I can arrange it for you.

Qin Mu was naturally delighted to hear this, as it was exactly what he wanted to achieve.

"Of course I'm interested, thank you, Professor Zhou!"

Just as the two were chatting enthusiastically, a streak of dark blue light flashed across the sky.

A gracefully curved, saucer-shaped, dark blue fighter jet hovered above the restaurant. The hatch opened, and a powerful figure clad in dark green armor and wielding a long spear leaped out.

The powerful warriors sent by the military have arrived.

The newcomer was a typical square-faced soldier with a serious expression and a powerful stride, a typical military style.

Under everyone's gaze, he first walked up to Professor Zhou and gave a military salute.

"Professor Zhou, I am Li Shun. I have been ordered to protect you on your way back to Jiangnan Base City."

Professor Zhou's face also turned serious as he responded.

"I've caused trouble for the organization; I didn't expect to alarm your Huashan Organization."

Li Shun glanced around and narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw the black-crowned golden eagle lying not far away. Then he turned to look at Qin Mu, and his expression softened.

"Colonel Qin Mu, on my way here I received a notification from my superiors to have full authority to discuss with you the matter concerning the sale of monsters you mentioned."

Li Shun had already researched all the information about Qin Mu on his way here.

Both of his parents were soldiers and he was an orphan of a martyr. For someone like Li Shun, who had spent his entire life in the military, such a person couldn't be more upright and righteous, and he naturally had a good impression of him.

"You can make any requests you have, and we will try our best to fulfill them. However, I have one question: how many monsters can you provide? And what are their specific strengths?"

Qin Mu smiled.

"As for the quantity, it might be a bit too much!"
