Chapter 260: Chapter 256: Redeem Rewards
Upon Bai Qi’s enthusiastic invitation, the members of the Special Attack Group One eventually agreed to dine with Bai Qi and others. The chosen location was, of course, the Songyue Building.
“Miss Tang Miao, this is a signature dish of the Songyue Building. Would you
like to try it?”
“Miss Tang Miao, let me pour you some tea…”
“Miss Tang Miao…”
On the way, Bai Yuxiao couldn’t resist asking Wang Huai about Tang Miao’s love life. After finding out that Tang Miao was single, he immediately turned into a faithful lapdog, following her closely and showering her with attention.
“Cha, is he always like this?”
Bai Qi held his tongue and turned to Bai Qiucha, whispering his question.
“I’m not very sure. Yuxiao likes to run around all over the place; we don’t meet more than a few times a year.”
Bai Qiucha let out a bitter smile and said, “But no, I don’t think so.
“Oh, I see.”
With a knowing look, Bai Qi glanced at Li Mu, who also seemed to be on the offensive, goaded by the stimulating scene. He sighed,
A lapdog to the end would end up gaining nothing.
Pity the party concerned couldn’t understand this common sense.
However, some lessons come exceptionally fast.
Looking at Bai Yuxiao’s ingratiating expression, Tang Miao squinted and smiled, “Little brother, elder sister doesn’t like boys younger than me. So you can give up now.”
As soon as Tang Miao’s words came out, Bai Yuxiao looked as if he had been struck by lightning. His face turned ashen. Bai Qi even faintly heard the sound of something shattering.
Good heavens, it ended before it even started. Compared to this, Li Mu seemed
fortunate.
Seeing Bai Yuxiao’s dejected expression, Wang Huai let out a helpless sigh,
“Tang Miao, be more respectful in your words.”
“Oh-”
Tang Miao stuck out her tongue playfully. Her adorable manner cheered Bai Yuxiao up again. He gave Wang Huai and Li Xusheng a dangerous look.
Since Tang Miao didn’t like boys younger than her, her target must be among these people.
Wang Huai was worldly and experienced, as well as being the leader. But he looked too reserved, so he probably wasn’t it.
The Baili Brothers might have looked decent, but their strange behaviors meant they couldn’t be it.
Li Xusheng, mature and powerful, and good-looking, it had a high probability
of being him!
With the help of love, Bai Yuxiao overcame his fear of Li Xusheng and secretly
set a target.
Surpass Li Xusheng!
Bai Yuxiao’s attitude naturally caught everyone’s attention. They looked at each other, and finally, Xiao Yuan initiated the conversation, “Bai Qi, where do you plan to go once the competition is over?”
Bai Qi thought for a moment, “I’ll probably return to Gusu City. I haven’t finished my mechatronics classes, so I should go back to school first.
Though the training camp had taught a lot, it missed out on mechatronics. Although Schuck provided Bai Qi with the complete mechanical guide under Seven Stage, he still needed to learn some detailed knowledge in person.
“Bai Qi, you’re going back to school?”
Wang Huai looked at Bai Qi speechlessly and said, “Your teachers must be
under a lot of pressure.”
Everyone agreed with Wang Huai s words.
A student who had already acquired three core patents would undoubtedly put pressure on any teacher.
Bai Qi looked towards Xiao Yuan and the rest. “What about you guys? Are you going to stay in Six Tower or go on some adventures?”
Xiao Yuan said, “I’ll stay in Six Tower for now, my grandfather wants me to focus on training, my abilities are kind of weak.”
“Grandfather, is it Xiao Chuanqi?”
As soon as Wang Huai heard this, he exclaimed, “So the legendary’s expectations for their descendants are indeed higher. And to think I used to consider my own abilities decent, this time I feel deeply taught.”
Xiao Yuan flashed a faint smile and commanded, “Captain Wang, you’re too kind. I can’t even break through your defense.”
After they exchanged a few compliments, they started chatting. Bai Qi could only turn to the rest.
“I’ll go with my teacher for field training. My teacher says that my battle consciousness is still lacking and needs a lot of honing.”
Zhou Yan waved his hand and turned to Lu Qing, asking, “Qing’er, are you staying in the Tower of Knowledge?”
Lu Qing nodded and said, “I still have a lot to learn, so I probably won’t leave the Tower of Knowledge.”
“I will stay in Six Tower.”
Hearing this, Li Mu also clarified his plan. However, it was unclear who he was addressing.
“What about Cha?”
“Me? I’m going back to Gusu City. I just started school, and I haven’t had a single class in the Undead Department yet. I must make up for it as soon as possible.”
Bai Qi grinned and said, “That’s perfect then. We are classmates.”
“Yes.”
Bai Qiucha nodded and said, “When we get back, I will have a good fight with your Death Sword Monarch.”
“Death Sword Monarch? Isn’t your pet beast the Wilting Dragon Lord, Bai Qi?
Upon hearing this, Tang Miao was taken aback and asked.
“Wilting Dragon Lord was at Lord Level, but now it has become…
“King-level.”
“So, Death Sword Monarch must be Wilting Dragon Lord…
“Who had leveled up.”
The Baili Brothers simultaneously looked at Tang Miao, who suddenly understood, causing Bai Yuxiao to become even more infatuated with her innocent and adorable expression.
Miss Tang Miao was indeed adorable, even when acting dumb-
“But Bai Qi, the rate at which your pet evolves is a bit exaggerated, right? If I remember correctly, Alpha was initially just a Skeleton Soldier, right?
Xiao Yuan curiously looked at Bai Qi and asked the question that everyone had been wondering about for a while.
Everyone knew, before Bai Qi published his research on the Rune Evolution method for Undead Department organisms, all pets wanting to evolve relied on special formulas. Most were not publicly available, leaving most people to rely on luck for evolution.
Even when the formula was known, gathering the necessary ingredients was no simple task. Aside from the primary ingredient, collecting the various auxiliary ingredients was a big project.
For someone like Bai Qi to go through all that trouble to raise a lowly servant to King-level… it was intimidating to think of the amount of resources and effort it must have taken.
“Uh, would you believe me if I said I just had good luck?
Bai Qi scratched his head. Seeing that everyone was giving him scornful looks,
he gave up on his defense.
Indeed, it was one thing for one pet to evolve like this, but for several of them. If it was purely luck, Bai Qi’s lifetime wouldn’t be long enough to explain it.
“Bai Qi, did you discover some special evolution method that you haven’t told us? Otherwise, your pets’ evolution is way too fast! Like for example, the Rune Evolution method for other lifeforms?”
Zhou Yan looked suspiciously at Bai Qi, seemingly searching Bai Qi’s face for methods to accelerate pet evolution.
“The Rune Evolution and Flesh Fusion methods are too difficult. For now, I can’t figure it out,” Bai Qi wryly smiled. “Anyway, you guys aren’t lacking evolution schemes either, right? I’ve just utilized more Mythical resources than you.”
Everyone went silent after hearing this. They had indeed heard about Bai Qi exchanging a lot of Mythical level resources for various reasons, including his frequent purchases of Epic Materials.
But pet evolution wasn’t like fattening a pig. It would not grow fatter just by eating more and better. If it indulged in something harmful, it could be ruined.
Therefore, this guy definitely had secrets.
Seeing the scrutinizing gaze of the others, Bai Qi felt more and more helpless. The Evolution Egg was his biggest secret, which he absolutely could not reveal. Moreover, he estimated that even if he revealed it, not many people would believe him.
Anything that could increase a race’s value just by consuming physical strength and easily fuse various resources to gain skills was bound to raise eyebrows. However, this did serve as a warning for him. If this continued, sooner or later someone would suspect him. He needed to find a convincing explanation soon.
Or, should he research the Rune Evolution of flesh creatures once the equipment his parents had helped procure arrived?
Hmm, or should he ask his parents if they could share any research materials on Ancestral Beasts? He might gain something from it.
After a satisfying meal and drink, the group left Songyue Building, and the two previously rival teams had become quite familiar with each other.
Bai Qi was not surprised by this.
In any world, there’s nothing that can’t be solved over a meal.
If there is, then simply have two meals.
“Thanks for your hospitality today. If anyone has a chance to visit the capital, remember to look for me,” Wang Huai turned to Xiao Yuan and continued, “Hopefully we will have the opportunity to collaborate in the future.
“I think there will be,” Xiao Yuan smiled and responded, “The Thirteenth Bureau and the Association have a close relationship, perhaps we’ll have a chance soon.”
The two exchanged a knowing smile. Zhou Yan suddenly thought of something and said, “The theoretical exam results should be out by now, shouldn’t we hurry back to check?”
“They’ve been out for a while, didn’t your badge receive the message?” Lu Qing gave Zhou Yan a speechless look. Zhou Yan suddenly realized, quickly opened his badge, and only after seeing the word “pass” and his ranking did he breathe a sigh of relief.
“It wasn’t easy, but I barely passed.
Zhou Yan patted his chest and suddenly realized that someone was missing.
“Huh? Where’s Bai Qi?”
“I guess, maybe he’s gone to claim the President’s promised reward? I’m the second highest, so Bai Qi must be the first,” Bai Qiucha smiled and said, “Two, Mythical resources… I wonder what kind of level Bai Qi’s pets will reach next.” “It might be more than two, remember, the President’s points reward this time is substantial. With Bai Qi’s ranking, he gets at least a hundred thousand points, so at least one Mythical resource is guaranteed.”
Lu Qing pushed up her glasses, looked at Zhou Yan, and said, “So, if certain people still want to surpass Bai Qi, they’d better work harder.”
“Three Mythical resources… I suspect Bai Qi could raise three King-level creatures. I’ve given up…”
Bai Qi shrugged indifferently and seemed to give up in despair.
If it was Xiao Yuan and the others, or even Bai Qiucha, he would still have the confidence to catch up, but a freak like Bai Qi, who had risen to Four Stage in just a few months without missing a double level on his pets… Better not.
“I wonder what Mythical resources Bai Qi will exchange for?”
