Chapter 302: Yixiu Family
Looking at the Cordyceps in front of him who was silent as a cicada, You Kui, who had always had a wooden face, suddenly showed a different look on his face.
"A fusion of insect and plant types?"
You Kui recognized the Cordyceps at a glance and immediately moved closer to it to examine it carefully.
"The surface of the body is the Dream Vine, and the insect body inside looks like a Soul Devouring Insect?"
"Although most soul-eating insects prefer to parasitize animals, there are also some that choose to parasitize plants. However, this kind of symbiotic situation is the first time I have seen it."
Perhaps because he came across a topic that interested him, You Kui changed his usual behavior and analyzed the reasons for the Cordyceps situation as if no one was around.
"Okay, You Kui, we can study this complicated matter later. You can guide this kid first."
Luo Xiang obviously knew You Kui's character very well, so he interrupted him directly. You Kui also realized his mistake, thought for a moment, and said, "I can't give you any useful advice on the plant department. As for the Soul Devouring Insect, there are only a few conventional methods of cultivating it."
"One is the Soul-Eating Stream, which strengthens itself by devouring the brains of fierce beasts. Although it will be more difficult to cultivate in the early stages, the advantage is that it has higher potential. If it can be cultivated into a king-level golden silkworm Gu, fierce beasts of the same level will not be able to resist its Soul-Eating Stream, which is definitely a powerful killing weapon."
"The other is the parasitic flow. You can choose a powerful beast corpse for it to parasitize. It can directly form combat power. The subsequent training will be a king-level puppet queen. It can parasitize a large number of beasts at the same time. Although its actual combat power is a bit weak, it has strong controllability and is not afraid of human wave tactics."
You Kui paused and said, "Although there are some other schools that are powerful, they are all exceptions. I don't recommend them very much, so you should focus on choosing from these two."
Bai Qi nodded. These two options are equivalent to one elite flow and one violent soldier flow, each has its own advantages and disadvantages.
But he wanted them all...
If the golden silkworm Gu that is good at beheading and the puppet queen insect that is good at legion warfare could be integrated together, wouldn't they be invincible?
Seeing the tangled look on Bai Qi's face, You Kui was silent for a moment and said, "But your pet can no longer be considered a pure insect creature. Maybe it can have other directions. The specific development depends on you."
"I understand. Thank you, Master You."
Bai Qi nodded. Indeed, Cordyceps possesses the attributes and skills of both the insect and plant types, so it is indeed possible to consider some different combinations. It just so happens that this secret realm is an insect-type secret realm, so maybe he can gain something from it.
You Kui glanced at the sky and said, "Okay, we still have to travel tomorrow, let's eat something and rest early."
"OK ."
Bai Qi touched his stomach. He didn't feel anything just now, but now that You Kui mentioned it, he was really a little hungry.
"Coach Luo, Master You, please wait a moment. I will ask my pet to prepare food right away."
As he spoke, Bai Qi summoned Gama, along with a complete set of kitchen utensils and ingredients.
Click, click.
(Master, what do you want to eat today?)
"Just something to restore your strength."
Click, click!
(Okay, Gamma gets it.)
After receiving Bai Qi's instructions, Gamma immediately started to get busy. The mimicry + diamondization directly transformed Gamma into a tentacle monster. At the same time, he manipulated various kitchen utensils to work together. Soon a sumptuous meal appeared in front of the three of them.
"Tsk tsk... I didn't realize that you, Bai Qi, usually teach your pet this?"
Luo Xiang couldn't help but smile as he looked at the delicious food in front of him.
"Ahem... My pet's own interests and hobbies have nothing to do with me."
Bai Qi scratched his head, then praised Gamma and took both pets back to the secret space.
After a hearty meal, the three of them assigned their duties and began to take turns sleeping.
Although given the three of them's level, they would not encounter any particularly powerful beasts in the suburbs close to the city, but they still had to develop the necessary habits. Otherwise, if they made a mistake, the price they would pay would definitely be something they did not want to bear.
…
Nile City.
Nile City is located on the western edge of the Federation, and is in exactly the same direction as the Thousand Cliffs Stone Forest.
However, there is one thing that these two places have in common, that is, they are both equally barren, even feeling a bit like a desert.
"I remember that the association branch in Nile City should not be far away. Let's go there to rest for a while and meet up with Bai Chuanqi."
Luo Xiang roughly determined the direction, and then brought Bai Qi to a slightly deserted building.
"Coach Luo, are you sure this is really a branch of the association?"
Bai Qi glanced at the deserted entrance of the association, and confirmed the house number on the side again, feeling somewhat unbelievable.
As a Federation-designated Beast Tamer organization, the Association can be said to be spread across all cities, large and small, in the Federation, and is very popular.
But the association in Nile City was obviously very deserted, and there were not even a few beastmasters coming here to fight.
"It's normal. The west is still influenced by many ancient families. Compared to the association, the beastmasters here are more willing to trust those family forces."
"But it shouldn't be so deserted. They should have gone to the surrounding area of the secret realm."
Luo Xiang shrugged, obviously not surprised.
"Family power, is it something like the Borg family?"
Luo Xiang nodded and said, "But Nile City should be the base of the Ixu family. The Borg family is quite far away from here."
“I see…”
Bai Qi was a little disappointed when he heard this. He had been thinking of taking advantage of this trip to the West to pluck the wings of other angels, but now it seems that it is impossible.
"But this time the Mythical Creatures Heritage Secret Realm has been revealed, and the Borg family should also come over. They won't miss out on anything that's good."
Before Bai Qi could feel regretful for long, Luo Xiang's next words perked him up again.
Just come on, this way Gamma's skills will be more balanced.
The three of them walked into the hall of the Nile City Association, but just like outside, the hall was also quite deserted. Apart from a receptionist who was standing there in a daze with nothing to do, there was no one else to be seen.
"Well, do you guys want to take on a mission?"
Noticing the three people approaching, the receptionist immediately came to his senses and asked with a smile on his face, not being rude at all because of the slow business.
"No, we want to ask, is Bai Chuanqi in the association?"
Luo Xiang showed his ID, and the receptionist's face straightened immediately. He said, "Bai Chuanqi just went out this morning and may not be back until the evening. If Master Luo is not in a hurry, I will arrange rooms for you first?"
"That's good, we can take a break."
Luo Xiang nodded and followed the receptionist to the lounge inside the association. He then took the information handed to him by the receptionist and read it carefully.
“Tsk… the secret realm of the inheritance of mythical creatures has been revealed, and all kinds of snakes, insects, rats and ants have emerged.”
Luo Xiang put down the intelligence in his hand, looked at Bai Qi beside him, and said: "Bai Qi, you'd better be mentally prepared. You may have to work harder at that time."
"I?"
Bai Qi was stunned when he heard this, and took the information and quickly read it through.
The intelligence mainly records the time when the secret realm was born and the beastmasters and various forces that have recently appeared near Nile City.
Apart from some idle beastmasters and the advance forces sent by the consortium, the only people Bai Qi knew about were the Borg Family, Bureau Thirteen, and the Jiuli Consortium.
However, what Bai Qi cared about most was the last piece of information.
"The test for the qualification certificate? The Yixiu family?"
Looking at the location of the secret realm recorded in the intelligence, Bai Qi frowned slightly.
The location of this secret realm was very clever. It happened to be right outside the Yixu family's residence, so the Yixu family took the absolute initiative.
But for some reason , the Isu family did not have a monopoly, but instead held a competition assessment to determine the candidates for entry.
I always feel like they are arresting people to be cannon fodder...
Bai Qi looked at the conditions marked above with doubt in his eyes, but Luo Xiang smiled and said, "Don't think too much. The Yixiu family is not yet capable of influencing a legendary biological secret realm, otherwise the Borg family would not be the only one in the west."
"We did this only because we were oppressed by various forces. Doing this can be considered as declaring our sovereignty."
"Since the Yixiu family dares to do this, they must be very confident in their own beastmasters, so... you better work hard."
Luo Xiang patted Bai Qi's shoulder with a wicked smile.
"If you lose this test, President Zhao will never let you go."
"Coach Luo, is this considered intimidation?"
"Yes, it's intimidation."
Seeing Luo Xiang admit it without any reservation, Bai Qi couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Although he certainly cannot miss the opportunity to enter the secret realm of inheritance, but boss, aren't you afraid of scaring your own brothers away by threatening them like this?
Bai Qi shrugged very frivolously and said, "Forget it, just fight, it's all the same anyway."
"Hahaha……"
Luo Xiang laughed loudly and said, "I have a feeling that there will definitely be an exciting battle tomorrow."
As he spoke, Luo Xiang stretched and said, "I'm exhausted after traveling for such a long time. I'm going to go to sleep first. Bai Qi, you should prepare for tomorrow's battle. There should ."
Bai Qi turned to the end of the information and saw the information about the beastmasters who had already come to Nile City. The largest section was naturally the information about the local family, the Ishu family.
"What about you, Instructor Luo?"
"Me? Didn't you read what's said above? In order to ensure that the inheritance secret realm is not destroyed, only beastmasters below level six are allowed to enter for the time being. Before you come out, there's nothing for me to do."
"Why do I feel more and more like I'm selecting cannon fodder?"
Bai Qi smacked his lips and couldn't help but complain.
The conditions are so strict that the Yixiu family has gone to great lengths to prevent other forces from snatching away the inheritance first.
However, they are also quite confident in their own beastmasters.
Come to think of it, they are all ancient families, so does the Ishu family also have mythical creatures?
