Chapter 20: Undead Scourge
Just as the Husky was staring at the eggshell fragments vigilantly, the fragments turned into black energy and flew straight towards the Husky.
Woof woof woof!
Seeing that this thing was actually trying to catch up, the Husky's barking turned into a dog's barking, and it ran out in panic, but was eventually caught up by the black energy and slowly merged into the prosthesis.
Huh?
As the black energy was absorbed, the Husky suddenly felt that the metal lump was much more pleasing to the eye and no longer as cold as before.
Seeing this, Bai Qi walked over quickly and carefully examined the Husky's prosthetic limb. He soon discovered that the prosthetic limb, which was originally connected by metal buckles, showed signs of merging with the flesh and blood.
The egg of evolution, can it even fuse this kind of energy machinery?
Bai Qi released the Husky's mechanical limb and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
It was a right decision to choose the major of Mechanical and Armed Forces College.
With traditional pets plus mechanical weapons, he is about to open up a new era!
Huh?
(Is this human stupid?)
The Husky looked at Bai Qi with a silly smile on his face, snorted disdainfully, and then started running around the yard, feeling indescribably happy.
Seeing the Husky's appearance, Bai Qi slowly calmed down.
Although the Evolution Egg can allow electronic machinery to merge with flesh and blood, he is still unclear about the principle behind it and needs to spend time to study it slowly.
Thinking of this, Bai Qi's gaze towards the Husky suddenly became strange. The Husky, who was originally playing around happily, suddenly felt a chill on his back and instinctively hid in his own doghouse.
This place is so dangerous, it suddenly wants to go home.
…
Because of the discovery of the New World, Bai Qi rarely took care of Alpha that day, leaving it to train on its own and focusing all his attention on the Husky.
After using the Black Iron Egg three times in a row, the degree of integration between the mechanical prosthesis and the Husky became higher and higher, and the connection between them was almost invisible.
But even so, the Husky did not undergo as drastic changes as the Alpha.
Do we also have to wait for the bloodline to evolve to a higher level?
Bai Qi thought about the Husky’s previous evolution and knew that this matter could not be rushed.
Anyway, this guy will stay here for half a month, so he has plenty of time to study slowly.
At worst, I can contract this idiot to him when he reaches the second level.
Although he couldn't see where the Husky had mutated yet, for him who had the egg of evolution in his hand, the contract seemed to make no difference.
"It's time to evolve Alpha. The remaining energy should have been absorbed almost completely."
Bai Qi prepared dinner for the Husky, opened a bottle of nutrient solution for himself, and came to Alpha.
After a week of training, Alpha has been able to adapt to the second speed range and can move forward and backward with ease, and has developed some of the qualities of a fighter.
What made Bai Qi most satisfied was that even if Alpha occasionally made some mistakes and was hit by the steel stick, his bones would no longer be broken.
[Name]: Shadow Bone Spike (Alpha)
[Race]: Undead
[Growth Level]: Level 0, Level 8
[Bloodline Level]: Intermediate Elite
[Racial Skills]: Bone Reshaping (Mastery), Tempered Bones (Mastery), Slash (Beginner), Shadow Lotus (Beginner)
[Status]: Evolvable
Because of Alpha's continuous training, his originally fragile bones finally showed some signs of steel, and his proficiency in broken bone remodeling was improved to a proficient level.
However, the biggest gain is that Alpha has gained a new active attack skill.
[Skill Name]: Continuous Slash
[Skill Introduction]: Quickly swing the weapon in your hand to cut the enemy and quickly strangle the enemy.
Bai Qi has tried the power of this skill. Although it does not have the explosive power and concealment of Shadow Lotus, it consumes less energy and is more suitable for frontal combat.
It can be said that the current Alpha has initially acquired the capital to serve as the main pet.
"Before it gets dark, let's evolve twice more and then I'll take you to the battlefield to try it out tomorrow."
After a week , Bai Qi also wanted to go out and test Alpha's actual combat power.
After all, data is data, actual combat is actual combat, and it is not advisable to work in isolation.
However, before Bai Qi could use the Evolution Egg, the Husky, who was originally feasting on the egg, suddenly jumped up and barked wildly at the distant sky, while Alpha also stopped practicing and stared blankly at the west.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Bai Qi followed the two people's gaze and did not see anything unusual.
Then, a sharp , followed by a broadcast.
"Please be advised, all citizens, a riot has broken out at the Hill of the Dead, disaster level B! All citizens who are still outdoors, please go to the nearest shelter immediately."
"Please be advised, all citizens, a riot has broken out at the Hill of the Dead, disaster level B! All citizens who are still outdoors, please go to the nearest shelter immediately."
"Please be advised, all citizens, a riot has broken out at the Hill of the Dead, disaster level B! All citizens who are still outdoors, please go to the nearest shelter immediately."
…
The urgent broadcast kept repeating, and Gusu City, which should have slowly quieted down, suddenly became lively again.
What the hell!
Riot at Hill of the Dead?
Undead Scourge!
Bai Qi had traveled to this world eighteen years ago, and he had only heard about the dangers of the undead plague in books. He did not expect to encounter it today.
However, Bai Qi did not show any sign of worry.
After twenty years of development, dozens of city walls have been built around Gusu City, and there are Beast Taming Corps stationed on the outermost wall. Even if there is a natural disaster of undead, it will not pose a threat to it for the time being.
And if nothing unexpected happens, the scale of this riot should not be large, otherwise it would not be rated as only a Class B disaster.
The undead plague is a super disaster that can destroy an entire continent and is much more terrifying than a beast tide.
However, since the Hill of the Dead was bombed by the Mechanical Legend twenty years ago, there should not be any high-level undead creatures. Why would they suddenly riot?
Bai Qi was a little confused, but he wasn't curious enough to run around.
Even if it was a Class B disaster, it was not something a trainee like him could get involved in. Running around now would only cause trouble for the government.
Bai Qi comforted Alpha through the soul contract, and then noticed the Husky still barking towards the Hill of the Dead.
This guy seemed to have noticed the problem with the Hill of the Dead earlier than Alpha, the undead creature.
Although the polar ice wolf has perception skills, isn’t this distance a bit too exaggerated?
Come to think of it, this guy was inexplicably restless a few days ago. Could it be that he noticed this?
If this is true, I might have found a treasure...
