Chapter 182: The Undead Legion's plan failed?
Seeing that Bai Qi seemed to have understood something, Bai Heguang nodded slightly and said, "The true origin of the blood of death has not been explained clearly so far, but traces of the blood of death have appeared more or less in the secret realms of almost every period."
"Including the Archaic Era."
"So, the owner of the Blood of Death might be a mythical creature from the ancient times? Or even earlier?"
Bai Qi was surprised when he heard this, obviously he didn't expect that he would come into contact with such an ancient creature.
If I had known this earlier, I would have collected more blood of death.
Oh, no, that thing cannot be collected unless one has the power of a star like the Morning Star.
"It should be. You will understand the specific situation when you come into contact with more secret realms in the future."
Bai Heguang nodded and said, "You should focus on training now. Don't run around before you become a fourth-level beastmaster."
“Okay, teacher.”
He didn't like running around in the first place. If he hadn't been brought out by Luo Xiang, he would still be at the headquarters with Bai Qiucha and the others.
Seeing Bai Qi being so tactful, Bai Heguang's expression softened a little, and he shifted his attention to the six zombies .
"Are these the skeleton soldiers from your previous research on rune evolution? They seem to have evolved again?"
Bai Qi nodded and said, "President Qin left them with me after the last press conference. It just so happened that I made some gains in the First Emperor Secret Realm these few days, so I did some experiments on them. I didn't expect that they would evolve again."
As soon as Bai Qi said this, the room suddenly became silent. Both Luo Xiang and Chun Yushui looked at Bai Qi in surprise.
"Bai Qi, don't tell me that you have researched the second stage of rune evolution?"
Although Luo Xiang is not a member of the Rune Evolution Task Force, he is not completely ignorant of Rune Evolution.
Although rune evolution eliminates those troublesome formulas and has verified the feasibility of evolution at all stages below the lord level, it also has some limitations.
It seems that the same undead creature can only be evolved using runes once. Subsequent evolutions still need to rely on traditional methods, otherwise no matter how many runes are carved, it will be useless.
This is also one of the difficult problems that the Rune Evolution Research Group has been working on recently, and President Qin has also contacted him about it.
But from what Bai Qi said, it seems that he has already figured it out?
"I guess so. I have to thank you Instructor Luo for giving me those ancient runes."
Bai Qi briefly told a few people about his research on the general figurines and his experiments with the steel skull, which made Luo Xiang laugh.
Humans can’t touch slave contracts at will, so let the pets do it?
You from TN are really talented!
Bai Heguang glanced at the faintly visible curse pattern on the forehead of the popular corpse and said, "Bai Qi, how many people know about your research?"
"I just discovered this two days ago, so only you, Instructor Luo, and Uncle Chun know about it."
Bai Heguang nodded and said, "From now on, unless I agree, the rune second stage evolution method is not allowed to be spread, and you can no longer let your pet continue to contract."
Bai Qi was stunned when he heard this, a little confused, but Luo Xiang and Chun Yushui understood.
Luo Xiang asked: "Bai Chuanqi, are you worried that this will affect Bai Qi's contract position?"
Bai Heguang nodded slightly and said, "Except for beastmasters with special talents, the contract positions of beastmasters are fixed. If the pet dies or defectes, there will be no replacement."
"Since you know about the slave contract, you should have also heard about the origin of the contract curse."
Bai Qi nodded, as if he understood something.
The contract spell is a gift from Gaia, the world's will, and it is also the capital that allows humans to confront ferocious beasts head-on, but it is limited in number.
Considering the scarcity of beastmasters at the time, the more contracted pets the better, but the world's will did not do so.
Unless it’s not that Gaia is unwilling to give more runes, but that humans can only bear so much?
"The number of contract positions is not a restriction for human beast masters, but a form of protection. Without a strong enough beast control space, forcing a contract will only damage one's soul."
"Although you didn't contract the six zombies yourself, they are still connected to you. Before you become a legend, don't take the risk of signing another contract. Do you understand?"
After listening to Bai Heguang's advice, Bai Qi nodded repeatedly, but felt a little regretful in his heart.
I didn't expect that the Undead Legion plan would fail before it was even officially formulated. I really feel unwilling to accept this.
I don't know how those people during the reign of Emperor Qin Shi Huang managed to control so many terracotta warriors and ancient weapons without going crazy. Could it be that the ancient people were more robust and could be used as humans?
Well, not a human being?
Bai Qi suddenly had an idea in his mind, and he said, "Well, teacher, I suddenly feel that the second stage of rune evolution can still be released."
Hearing Bai Qi's words, Bai Heguang couldn't help but frowned.
The reason why he suddenly accepted Bai Qi as his apprentice, besides the power of death, was that Bai Qi was really good at causing trouble.
If he was just an ordinary person, it would be fine, but for a restless guy like Bai Qi, Bai Heguang was very worried that this guy would study the power of death, and then might cause some trouble.
Looking at it now, it seems that his decision was right.
This guy must be watched carefully.
Unlike Bai Heguang's cautiousness, Luo Xiang was very interested and asked, "What new ideas have you come up with? Tell me about it."
Bai Qi sorted out his thoughts and said, "I think the most important part of the second stage of evolution should still be the rune structure that connects the soul and the body, right? In this case, wouldn't it be enough to just remove the binding runes in the slave contract and keep only the part that transmits mental power?"
After hearing Bai Qi's words, Luo Xiang and Chun Yushui looked at each other, but neither of them refuted Bai Qi's statement immediately.
Seems feasible?
Bai Heguang thought for a moment and said, "There are significant differences between ancient runes and modern runes. This method is not very reliable. If one is missed, the party inputting the mental power and the party receiving it may still form a contractual relationship."
Bai Heguang paused and said, "But it is also a research direction. You can contact President Qin later and ask them to study in this direction."
"What if the spiritual power is not provided by a human?"
When Bai Qi said this, Bai Heguang, who had always been calm in the face of praise or criticism, couldn't help but be stunned.
Luo Xiang reacted immediately and said, "Not a person? You mean a treasure that can store spiritual power?"
Bai Qi nodded and said, "Yes, treasures, special machines, spiritual power storage runes, and even some ownerless legendary creatures are all fine."
The three of them remained silent after hearing this . After a long time, Chun Yushui was the first to break the silence.
"Young people nowadays really have ideas. I am getting old..."
Chun Yushui took a sip of wine and then left Bai Qi's house first. Luo Xiang also said with a smile: "I really don't know how President Qin dug you out. He actually thought of this method."
"But it's worth a try."
Luo Xiang looked at Bai Heguang, as if asking for his opinion, and Bai Heguang nodded after a brief thought.
"Okay, you can continue your research, but you must inform me before you announce the results. Do you understand?"
"I understand, teacher, don't worry!"
Originally he was worried that Bai Heguang would be dissatisfied with his use of machinery to study the undead, but now that Bai Heguang actually agreed, he naturally didn't mind these harmless conditions.
Undead Army, here I come again!
"Well, I'll be leaving now. You should take Luo Xiang back with you."
Bai Heguang nodded and then left Bai Qi's room.
After confirming that Bai Heguang had left, Luo Xiang suddenly revealed a strange smile and said, "Huh~ I didn't expect Bai Chuanqi to accept you as his apprentice. You're going to have a hard time in the future."
"What do you mean?"
Bai Qi's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Bai Heguang was a devil coach, even more terrifying than Zhang Shan?
Luo Xiang smiled and said, "Do you think the Six Tower members are more valuable or the Titled Legendary Disciples are more valuable?"
Damn, I actually forgot about this!
Bai Qi's face was filled with black lines when he heard this. As a legendary strong man who has been famous for many years, Bai Heguang has never accepted any disciples until now, which has become a source of dissatisfaction in the hearts of many undead beastmasters.
Now that he has been accepted as a disciple by Bai Heguang, as long as the news gets out, it will definitely cause a huge uproar in the Federation.
It would be fine if there were just some unconvinced challengers, Bai Qi wouldn't mind finding some free sparring partners for Alpha and the others. If he were to be targeted by those crazy reporters and fans, he really wouldn't have to go out.
"Instructor Luo, why don't you keep it a secret for me?"
Luo Xiang shrugged, pointed to the door, and said, "I have no problem, but it seems to be too late."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Qi's door was knocked open, and Feng Ye and others rushed in from outside.
"Bai Qi, you have been accepted as a disciple by Bai Chuanqi! Damn, the way of heaven is so unfair!!!"
"Brother Bai Qi, remember to take good care of your sister in the future~"
"Bai Qi, let's have a fight. Let me see the gap between me and the legendary disciples!"
"Ahhhh, Bai Qi, do you want to eat?"
…
Looking at Feng Ye and others who were noisy in front of him, Bai Qi couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed. When he saw Chun Yushui leaning against the door and drinking comfortably, his veins popped out.
He said why this decadent uncle suddenly ran away, it turned out that he went to spread the news.
Now that these guys know about it, I guess everyone else will know it without the need for paparazzi investigation.
No, I have to stay at the headquarters to avoid the limelight and concentrate on completing the fourth-level task requirements of my teacher.
Come to think of it, because I was worried about Alda and Gamma, I didn’t notice that my physique had been strengthened again.
Hiss...why not get some blood of death or something to fix the bug of the evolution egg?
Bai Qi thought about it and gave up this plan.
Although I have the green dragon scales to restore my strength, the feeling of being corroded by the blood of death is really bad, so I'd better not take the risk.
However, this trip cannot be in vain.
"Come on, come on, fight with me!"
I missed two legendary creatures, but I can't miss out on so many pets I haven't seen before. I have to complete the progress first...
