Chapter 272: Are pets so stubborn?
Undead system.
Small battle field in the lecture hall.
Li Xin stared blankly at the armored Steel Skull in front of him, still unable to accept it.
Just now, he was beaten up by a temporarily evolved skeleton soldier that was only equipped with some mechanical armor. Although it was not the main pet, it still caused him considerable damage.
If a pet beast can surpass the one they have worked so hard to cultivate with just a few modifications, then why do they work so hard?
“Ahem…”
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost brewing, Bai Qi coughed twice to draw everyone's attention to himself.
"I think everyone has the same doubts in their hearts now, and I can understand it because I once thought so too."
Bai Qi paused and summoned Alpha. The cool appearance and the powerful aura of the king-level life immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.
"People who know me well should know that my main pet Alpha was also promoted from the servant level step by step. Have you seen any mechanical creations on Alpha?"
Everyone shook their heads. Although they could clearly feel the aura of different elements on Alpha, the most important thing was the strong power of shadow. They couldn't see any machinery at all.
"But when I first became a beastmaster, Alpha relied on appropriate mechanical transformation to stand out among many pets and get to where he is today."
"The beast masters in Gusu City should have heard of this."
Hearing Bai Qi's words, many students from Gusu City nodded.
Many of them had seen Alpha’s battles in the Beastmaster Association. He had indeed undergone mechanical transformation, but as Alpha became stronger, this became less common in the later period.
"Of course, I'm not advocating that you study mechanics. I'm just providing you with an idea. Runes and mechanics are only, and can only be, secondary auxiliary means to help you get through the initial stage relatively easily."
At this point, Bai Qi paused and said, "My teacher, the legendary 'Ming Huang' of the Undead Department, once told me that death and darkness are the main themes of the Undead, but with some appropriate embellishments, they can also play a significant role in setting off the Undead."
As soon as Bai Qi said this, both Li Xin on the stage and the others in the audience were completely convinced by Bai Qi, but at the same time they also had some different thoughts.
Maybe, they can also have some fun?
"Huh~ I finally fooled him, but I don't know if I'll be beaten to death by the teacher when I get back."
Bai Qi quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead. The first half of the last sentence was indeed Ming Huang's original words, but the second half was purely added by him.
But he had even brought Andrumon up here, so a few words wouldn't matter, not to mention that he managed to make it up in the end.
"Mr. Bai, thank you for your teachings. I was too arrogant before."
Li Xin was silent for a moment, then suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to Bai Qi. There was no longer any doubt in his eyes, but instead infinite admiration.
No wonder Bai Chuanqi made an exception and accepted a disciple. Bai Qi was indeed qualified and capable. In comparison, he, who always regarded himself as a genius, was no different from a firefly .
"You are right to insist. Shadow power is indeed the core power of undead creatures. Just don't be so rigid."
"I see!"
Li Xin responded loudly and returned to his seat convinced, while Bai Qi also left quickly under the gaze of everyone.
Mission accomplished, staying here would be asking for trouble.
"It seems that you have adapted to this new identity very well, but the remarks you made just now could easily be criticized by some seniors."
Just when Bai Qi was planning to take a stroll around the Mechanical Weapons Institute, Duan Meng suddenly appeared behind Bai Qi like a ghost.
"Master Duan, you are here too?"
Seeing Duan Meng suddenly appear, Bai Qi's heart skipped a beat and he asked, "Where's the teacher? He's not here too, is he?"
Duan Meng nodded and said, "Of course I am."
It's over. I'm dead.
Bai Qi suddenly felt a black screen before his eyes. If Bai Heguang was not there, he could still find a way to fool people afterwards, but now, he was probably done for.
"But Bai Chuanqi left halfway through the conversation because of something else."
After hearing Duan Meng's words, Bai Qi immediately regained his vitality, and at the same time looked at Duan Meng with resentment.
Boss, could you please not breathe so heavily when you speak next time? It can easily scare people to death.
Seeing Bai Qi's expression, Duan Meng, who always had a deadpan expression, smiled and said, "Actually, what you said makes sense. If the Undead System wants to get rid of its reputation as the Undead Scourge, integrating it into other systems is indeed a good way."
At this point, Duan Meng's eyes flashed with a dangerous light, and he said: "But Bai Qi, do you have any opinion on the Revenant Soul System? There is no place for the Revenant Soul System in these two stages of evolution~"
Um, boss, I remember you were also a member of the special task force, right? Why are you putting the blame on me?
“Well, I’ll continue to work hard in the future.”
Bai Qi scratched his head and agreed reluctantly.
The ability to research the second stage of rune evolution was just an unexpected gain when studying the general figurines. The difference in form between the soul system and the skeleton system is too great, so the first stage of evolution is fine, but the second stage of evolution is really a bit difficult for him.
Forget it, let’s talk about it later when I have time.
Thinking of the many problems he had not yet solved, Bai Qi felt a little scalp-tingling, and silently put the second stage evolution of the ghost system at the end.
After getting rid of Duan Meng, Bai Qi no longer had the mood to hang out at the Mechanical Weapons Institute, so he simply returned home.
After a night of hard work, the instruments my parents helped me buy should be almost assembled, so it's a good time to go back and familiarize myself with them.
…
Secret base.
As soon as Bai Qi entered the secret realm, he discovered that there was a brand new building next to the original secret realm base.
"This commotion is really a big deal..."
Looking at Husky who was directing the Six Sword Servant to carry out the final inspection, Bai Qi smacked his lips, walked forward and asked, "Is this building used to store instruments ?"
Shuke nodded and said, "Yes, these instruments are very complete and have different uses. In order to avoid confusion, I made a small partition."
Bai Qi understood what he said. Since the integration of the mechanical fire, Shuke's computing power has increased day by day. This kind of thing must be reliable.
"By the way, what the hell is that courseware? Why does it contain Buddhist scriptures?"
Shuke didn't say anything when he heard this, but just glanced at Beta who looked guilty, the meaning was self-evident.
Ahhhh!
(Humans, you don’t understand. The undead are too yin and can easily harm your body. Learn some Buddhist scriptures to avoid evil!)
Bang!
Bai Qi couldn't help but get a bulge on his forehead when he heard this. He punched Beta on the head and said, "You still want to ward off evil spirits? Be careful, one day I'll stew you for hot pot!"
Awww!
(Human, I am so cute, how can you bear to eat me!)
Seeing Beta's funny look, Bai Qi was too lazy to continue talking nonsense. He looked at Shuke and said, "Have you entered all the biology knowledge? I'll go check it out first."
Although all the instruments are in place, Bai Qi has almost no foundation in biology, so he still needs to spend some time learning.
"It has been put into the intelligent brain. Delta should be reading it now. Beastmaster, just go find him."
"Delta?"
Bai Qi was stunned when he heard this, obviously a little surprised.
"Yes, Delta said that he has too many evolved forms, and he needs to learn some biology knowledge to fully utilize the abilities of these forms. He started studying last night."
Shuke nodded and said, "Beastmaster, do you have anything else to say? If not, I will go back first. I still have a few projects to deal with."
"Oh~Okay, go ahead and get busy."
Bai Qi nodded somewhat blankly and walked towards the biology building mechanically, but on the way he saw Alpha who was leading the six sword servants to practice rune carving.
Bai Qi looked at Alpha and the Six Sword Servant with a serious look in silence, and silently checked Gamma's status through the contract.
Fortunately, there is still a normal one.
Looking at Gama who was eating heartily as usual, Bai Qi nodded with satisfaction. Just as he was about to regain consciousness, he suddenly discovered that the food Gama was eating was a little different from before.
"When did Gama start arranging the food?"
Bai Qi took out his cell phone and called up the surveillance footage of Gamma's location. He was shocked to find that next to Gamma was a thick cookbook, and next to the cookbook was a complete set of kitchen utensils.
"This is definitely a rhythm brought about by Nicholas..."
Thinking about how Gamma would stay with Nicholas for a long time every time he went to the Green Dragon Secret Realm, Bai Qi suddenly understood.
It seems like he went to learn how to cook.
"Each of them...really look like this beastmaster, as good as I am~"
Bai Qi showed a relieved expression on his face. He no longer cared about the four pets' behavior and strode into the biology building.
Just as Shuke said, Delta was conscientiously studying the biology knowledge prepared by Bai Yan and did not notice Bai Qi's arrival at all.
"Delta, how are you doing?"
Bloopers.
(Master, you are here. Delta is a little stupid and learns slowly, but Delta will work hard.)
Bai Qi nodded, then squatted beside Delta to study together.
In order to make it easier for Bai Qi to learn, Bai Yan also added supporting holographic projection teaching, which is almost the same as real-life teaching. However, after hearing the content, Bai Qi was a little confused.
"The number of genes in an organism is extremely large, but the genes of each individual organism will produce different combinations according to the external conditions. What we can do is to intervene in these genes..."
These days, the foundation of biology all starts with genes?
And there is genetic intervention, is this really something a novice needs to learn?
Bai Qi ran to the intelligent computer, opened it, and was shocked to find that what Delta was seeing was actually advanced genetics.
Are even pets so extravagant these days?
