Chapter 100: Chapter 99: Evolution to Lord Level
Translator: 549690339
Bai Qi felt a faint trace of dragon might lingering on the crystal spine, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
He had originally thought that the Thirteenth Bureau would try to appease him with some inferior mythical material, but instead, the Thirteenth Bureau directly sent over a dragon bone.
Those directly under the Federation sure were wealthy!
Crunch crunch crunch.
(Master, I want that bone!)
As Bai Qi was studying the crystal dragon bone, a strong desire was transmitted from Alpha who was still in the Beast Control Space.
Use it now?
Bai Qi glanced at Zhuge Xu and the others who were still studying rune evolution nearby, hesitating.
Alpha was definitely going to evolve into a Lord Level this time, which would definitely drain a lot of his energy. It would be hard to explain if noticed by Celestial Brilliance.
However, Alpha’s desire was just too strong. After pondering for a while, Bai Qi quietly left the training room and entered the secret space.
The six solidified runes on Alpha had long been set, and its bloodline level had also reached a critical point. Now that the mythical material had arrived, it was time for it to evolve.
Moreover, he also wanted to see what Alpha would evolve into with the addition of a mythical material and a rune.
In the secret space, Alpha received the crystal dragon bone. The soul light in its eye sockets surged instantly, eager to absorb this crystal dragon bone immediately.
However, Alpha still resisted the desire in his heart and quietly waited for Bai Qi to use the Evolution Egg.
As Bai Qi’s first pet, Alpha is definitely the biggest beneficiary of the Evolution Egg, so it knew that only the Evolution Egg could give it the greatest benefits.
“Schuck, I may not be able to take care of myself later, remember to help me replenish energy.”
Bai Qi summoned the Husky to his side, piled a bunch of replenishment products beside him, thought for a while, gnawed an Angel Fruit in advance, and then put his hand on Alpha.
“Evolve!”
Bai Qi took a deep breath and activated the Evolution Egg.
A bronze liquid spread from the palm of Bai Qi, and he was instantly dried up to the point of fainting.
Fortunately, Schuck reacted very quickly. Upon noticing Bai Qi’s abnormality, he stretched out his mechanical arm to support Bai Qi and injected a syringe into Bai Qi’s body, allowing him to recover temporarily.
However, this situation only lasted for a moment, and Bai Qi once again felt the sensation of fainting. He immediately took an Angel Fruit from Schuck and quickly finished eating it, then the second one, and the third one…
Finally, when Bai Qi’s replenishment products were about to run out, the Bronze Egg barely took shape.
“Goodness, does the evolution of a Lord Level consume so much?”
Just now, Bai Qi really felt the arrival of death. If Schuck had injected the needle a little bit later, he might have been killed on the spot.
“No way, I have to ask Old Qin for help, or I’ll either die or get heavily injured this time.”
Bai Qi, like a homeless wanderer who hadn’t eaten for dozens of days, finished all the rest of the replenishment products but still didn’t get any better. He could only forcibly raise his spirits and send himself out of the secret space.
“Let’s temporarily agree on this. As for the specific process, I will find a chance to discuss it in detail with you later.”
Zhuge Xu rubbed his round belly, glanced around with a cheerful smile, and asked, “By the way, where is Bai Qi?”
Zhuge Chen thought for a while and then said, “I just saw him go out. He must have gone to study that mythical material.”
“This boy, I’ve warned him multiple times that mythical materials aren’t toys. He didn’t go messing with it again, did he?”
President Qin’s eye twitched slightly, and a bad premonition rose in his heart. Then, when he saw Bai Qi appear in the yard looking no different than a dry corpse, he wasn’t surprised at all.
Just as I thought!
President Qin let out a silent sigh, directly summoned the Light Elf towards Bai Qi, and only after it sprinkled down a light powder did Bai Qi finally recover.
“Phew- I’m saved.”
Bai Qi straightened up, looking at the Light Elf still hovering overhead, his eyes filled with envy.
If he could have a Light Elf too, then he would not have to worry about this kind of situation anymore.
“Bai Qi, did you already use that mythical material to evolve your pet?”
Bai Heguang, the legend of the Undead Department, immediate connected the dots after seeing Bai Qi in this state.
“Um, yeah.”
Bai Qi nodded, confirming Bai Heguang’s deduction from his expression.
President Qin glanced at Bai Qi who was still a little weak, and asked, “Heguang, have you seen this situation before?”
Bai Heguang nodded and said, “Undead Department pets are more aggressive than pets of other departments. Some high-talent pets would absorb the energy of the Beast Master if there isn’t enough energy during their evolution.” “My Jiuyou Darkbird also experienced a similar situation when evoving to the Emperor-level, but at that time I was already a legend and I had prepared enough resources in advance, so I wasn’t affected.”
There really is such a thing?
The group of them suddenly realized, and Bai Qi quietly heaved a sigh of relief.
He was worried about how to explain initially, but now Bai Heguang had basically given him a perfect excuse.
It’s decided, he would use this excuse to go to Old Qin for a Light Elf in the future.
Seemingly sensing someone’s malign intent, President Qin suddenly felt annoyed and gave Bai Qi a hard knock on the head.
“You rotten boy, do you know that if it weren’t for me just now, you would have died of exhaustion?”
Bai Qi innocently spread his hands and said, “How could I knowing Alpha would suddenly evolve, and so dramatically at that.”
Bai Heguang suddenly asked, “Did you also carve runes on your pet?”
Bai Qi nodded and said, “Yes, I solidified six runes on Alpha, thinking that I won’t have to do carvings during a fight.”
“As I thought, runes are the opportunity for evolution, and mythical materials provide the energy needed for evolution, which is why it suddenly evolved.”
A light flashed in Bai Heguang’s eyes, “Where’s your pet? Summon it and let me see.”
Bai Qi glanced at the Bronze Egg that was lying quietly in the secret space, shook his head, and said, “It’s still evolving and can’t be summoned at the moment.”
Bai Heguang nodded but didn’t say anything further, nor did he show any signs of leaving. The others also quietly stood by, their eyes fixedly on Bai Qi.
They had just been discussing when to try higher-level skeletal creatures, and then Bai Qi made his move. Naturally, they were eagerly awaiting the results. Bai Qi, however, was feeling a tad overwhelmed.
Being stared at by a Titled Legendary, two Masters of the Sunrise Level and two predatory businessmen, Bai Qi admitted he was a bit unnerved.
If they knew about the existence of the Evolution Egg, he’d definitely be in for a rough time.
Finally, under Bai Qi’s anticipatory gaze, the shell around Alpha slowly cracked. Beams of dazzling light seeped out from the gaps, illuminating the Secret Space.
Then, an aura of draconic majesty emanated from the shell, startling the observing Husky into retreating several steps, though it still felt significant pressure.
Being the same Intimidation skill, the Dragon Majesty was stronger than those of other races!
Crack!! Crack!! Crack!!
Under the cover of Evolution Light, the cracks on the Bronze Egg widened. Streams of deep blue energy seeped out from the gaps, and wherever they passed, the land and vegetation rapidly lost their vitality.
Just then, countless pieces of information flooded into Bai Qi’s mind.
[Skill Name]: Dragon Majesty
[Skill Level]: High Stage
[Skill Introduction]: A dragon department skill, a power from the dragon bloodline, which can completely suppress non-dragon races.
[Skill Name]: Ice Crystal Barrier
[Skill Level]: High Stage
[Skill Introduction]: A skill from the Ice and Crystal Clan, able to summon an Ice Crystal Barrier capable of blocking most types of attacks, causing frost damage to attackers.
[Skill Name]: Blast Crystal Spike
[Skill Level]: High Stage
[Skill Introduction]: A skill from the Ice and Crystal Clan, where when the Ice Crystal Barrier is voluntarily or involuntarily shattered, the crystal fragments turn into countless crystal spikes that attack enemies, dealing both physical and frost damage.
The three new skills caused Bai Qi’s expression to become increasingly pleased. Dragon Majesty, a powerful skill far surpassing ordinary Intimidation skills. Unless Alpha encounters other dragons like Bai Qiucha’s Skeleton Dragon or other mythical bloodline creatures, other pets would not be able to fully perform in front of it.
Most importantly, this Dragon Majesty seems to be a passive skill.
As for those two Crystal Clan skills, there was no need to think about it – they definitely came from the Crystal Dragon Bone.
A large-scale defensive skill, a group attack skill, the key point being that both were high-stage skills. The effect of the Mythical Material was truly terrifying!
The evolution of Alpha was still ongoing, and only half of the Bronze Egg was left. However, they couldn’t see the actual appearance of Alpha as it was hidden behind the Bronze Light.
Then, Bai Qi received another piece of information.
[Skill Name]: Withering Breath
[Skill Level]: Super
[Skill Introduction]: A skill from the Shadow, Ice, and Dragon Department, causing anything within the scope of Withering power to rapidly decay, whether they are living or non-living, they will wither rapidly like flowers. Arghhhhh!!!!
Right now, Bai Qi felt like rushing into the Secret Space to give Alpha a big hug.
Super Skill…
The Withering Power that can decay everything, could such a skill really exist in a Lord Creature?
Roar!
Accompanied by a thunderous roar, the remaining Bronze Egg exploded apart, and Alpha finally broke free from the eggshell.
The nearly two-meter tall figure, bones as clear as the Crystal Dragon Bone, constantly flashing an enchanting radiance, there was no sight of the gloominess usually found in undead creatures.
On the spine that snaked like a giant dragon, still emanating a faint Dragon Majesty, six segments flashed with the light of Runes.
In its broad palm, it held a deep blue Crystal Great Sword. The complex runes engraved on it added a hint of mystery to this great sword.
Boom!
Alpha’s momentum exploded once again. The Bronze Eggshell fragments that were blasted away earlier immediately flew back and merged into the spine. Instantly, liquid crystal flowed over its body, forming a suit of crystal armour. A lifelike dragon’s head appeared on the armour, projecting a self-imposed majesty.
The crystal continued to spread, forming a dragon-shaped helmet on Alpha’s skull. Only the two fires of its soul continued to flicker.
Finally, Alpha’s transformation ceased, and a complete set of information flooded into Bai Qi’s mind.
[Name]: ??? (Alpha)
[Nature]: Ice Clan, Undead Department, Dragon Department
[Level]: Second Stage First Level
[Bloodline Level]: Mid-Level Lord
[Racial Skills]: Withering Breath (Preliminary), Dragon Majesty (Preliminary), Skeleton Manipulation (Perfect), Ice Crystal Barrier (Skilled), Blast Crystal Spike (Skilled), Shadow Lotus Skill (Masterful)
[Energy Value]: 186000
[Condition]: Evolvable
Having close to two hundred thousand energy value just after breaking through, when Alpha levels up and improves its skill proficiency, it would be a high-end existence even among the Lords with this type of evolving type.
“I’ll call you Withering Dragon Lord..”
