Chapter 166: Alpha Evolves Again
Translator: 549690339
Looking at the Wind Teeth in his hand, then at Alpha and the Husky in front of him, Bai Qi finally chose to enhance Alpha.
In the ability that the saber- toothed tiger just demonstrated, apart from Wind Blade, there was a skill that could merge into the raging wind.
This skill could hide its form, freely travel through the gales, and even fly.
If Alpha could acquire this capability, its range of motion would be more dynamic, and it could adopt a more versatile way of fighting.
As for the Husky, the destructive power of Thunder Flame Power was already enough, adding wind attribute would merely be gilding the lily. Therefore, in comparison, Bai Qi preferred to focus on enhancing the Husky’s Spirit Power.
After all, be it Schuck’s mental processing rate, Beta’s perception ability, or Soul Whisper, they all depended on Spirit Power. Moreover, this was the Husky’s direction of mutation, so he could not disregard it in anyway.
Besides, the Husky’s combat capacity could also develop from other directions.
Having finalized the allocation scheme, Bai Qi first wrapped the Earth Gold Ring around Gamma’s body, promptly activated the Evolution Egg, and then looked towards Alpha.
The Grass Cutter Claw might have been of the Metal Element. He assumed it could obtain skills similar to being sharp or sturdy. As for the Wind Teeth’s Wind Element, it was likely to gain cutting or moving type skills. These two materials, barely related, he wondered what effects would occur if used simultaneously.
With this thought in mind, anticipation flashed in Bai Qi’s eyes. He handed both materials to Alpha and then activated the Evolution Egg.
The moment the Silver Egg took shape, Bai Qi suddenly felt a massive loss of strength, his body unconsciously beginning to lean backwards.
However, Schuck was evidently accustomed to this situation. He directly mimicked a chair to catch Bai Qi, expertly gave him an injection, and then handed him the Green Dragon Scale to hold onto. Only then did Bai Qi recover. “Phew… Consumed so much strength, is Alpha about to evolve again?”
While absorbing the vitality from the Green Dragon Scale, Bai Qi looked at Alpha’s Evolution Egg, somewhat surprised.
“According to our previous calculations, Alpha should still need some time to evolve to become a High-grade Lord. These two epic materials must have expedited the process.”
Schuck projected a series of data, which recorded the number of times their three pets used the Evolution Egg and the quantity of materials absorbed.
However, obviously because of different materials, the uncertainty in the data was massive.
“Alright, next time, whatever the evolution, I will keep the Green Dragon Scale with me.”
Green Dragon Scale could not directly enhance Bai Qi’s constitution as the Jade Breath did, but its recovery rate was much faster than that of the Angel Fruit. Considering his situation today, holding it in his hand was not reliable, so the best solution was to keep it close to his person.
“Schuck, make me a pendant later and hang the Green Dragon Scale on it.”
“I can do it now.”
Schuck’s efficiency was outstanding. Almost the moment Bai Qi gave him the order, he extended some Etherium Liquid Gold to wrap up the Green Dragon Scale, subsequently forming a pendant which fell into Bai Qi’s hand.
A silvery-grey chain and a Green Dragon Scale shimmering like jade, Schuck conveniently shaped it in a way that didn’t feel much inferior compared to famous brands.
“Tsk… Didn’t know you cared about this, Schuck. Good job, take your reward!”
Bai Qi satisfiedly hung the pendant around his neck. He could only feel the vitality of the Green Dragon Scale flowing into his body without any obstruction through the chain made of Etherium Liquid Gold, slowly replenishing his energy.
With this, it seemed he didn’t really need those supplements anymore. Perhaps he could sell them off?
When he returned to Gusu City, he would ask Zhuge Chen if he was willing to work part-time to sell supplements. It could also be considered as another source of income.
Looking at Alpha and Gamma, who were silently evolving, Bai Qi, whose condition had already recovered, didn’t plan to sit idle. He started to study the rubbings of the Slave Contract.
Compared to other ancient runes, the complexity level of this Rune Mark was evidently different.
Supposedly simple and even useless patterns could show, upon closer inspection, to be a combination of countless tiny symbols. He didn’t know how Luo Xiang had managed to produce such a complete and clear rubbing.
“Schuck, enlarge all these runes for a search. See if there are hidden tiny symbols inside, then compare them with the symbols on the terracotta soldiers. Don’t miss any.”
Schuck nodded, scanned each of these rubbings into the system one by one, and proceeded to slowly restore the crushed General Terracotta. Bai Qi, on the other hand, donned his Rune Glasses to painstakingly copy each one himself.
Time passed, and while Bai Qi was engrossed in his copying, the cracking sound of the Silver Egg caught his attention.
Naturally, the first to break out of the shell was Gamma.
Due to the merger with the Earth Gold Ring, Gamma’s originally all-green body now had strands of gold. Invisibly, it added a bit of nobility to Gamma, making it distinct from ordinary slimes.
However, Bai Qi wasn’t particular about appearances. Thus, he only took a brief look before beginning to review Gamma’s condition.
[Name]: Poison Devouring Monster (Gamma)
[Nature]: Alien Series (Physical Mutations)
[Growth Level]: Second Stage, Sixth level
[Bloodline Level): High-grade Elite
[Racial skills]: Energy Absorption (Intermediate – Awakened), Mimicry (Low Level – Perfect), Corrosion (Low Level – Perfect), Toxin Resistance (Intermediate – Perfect), Electric Resistance (Intermediate – Perfect), Frozen Resistance (Intermediate – Perfect), Flame Resistance (Intermediate – Perfect), Blazing Resistance (Intermediate – Proficient), Cutting Resistance, (Intermediate – Proficient), Shadow Resistance (Intermediate – Proficient), Corrosion Resistance (Intermediate – Proficient), Radiation Resistance (Intermediate – Skilled), Deadly Poison Aura (High Level – Skilled), Split (Intermediate – Beginner)
[Energy Value]: 84.000
[Condition]: Evolvable
As expected, he got the Splitting Skill!
[Skill Name]: Split
[Skill Level]: Mid-Level
[Skill Description]: Can split into one or several sub-entities. The sub-entities can inherit part of the energy and skills of the main body. The degree of power depends on the energy value provided by the main body at the time of splitting. A smile peeked from the comer of Bai Qi’s mouth. He eagerly grabbed Gamma and headed for the battle room.
Unlike the nurturing room that was indoors, Bai Qi had placed the battle room outside. He had separated it from other areas with metal all around and underground, to prevent causing excessive external damage.
“Gamma, use Split.”
Bai Qi tossed Gamma onto the grass, immediately gave his orders.
Kaput Kaput.
(Okay, master.)
Upon receiving the command, Gamma’s body suddenly shook. A gold line swiftly swam around, directly pulling apart a portion of Gamma’s body and quickly shaping it into a smaller Gamma.
This was not the end. Gamma continued to split until ten split bodies appeared around it before stopping.
The appearances of these split bodies were the same as Gamma. In other words, they were jelly-like. Each split body had a golden line, pointing at Gamma’s main body.
“Let’s see the resistance first.”
Bai Qi looked at Schuck. Schuck instantly understood and directly sprayed a fine thread of Thunder Flame Power onto one of the split bodies.
As it was invaded by the Thunder Flame Power, the split body began to wriggle uncontrollably, letting the thread of Thunder Flame Power flow around it.
But after a short period of wriggling, the split body immediately burst into pieces, scattered on the ground without showing any signs of recovery.
As expected, the split bodies couldn’t inherit Gamma’s absurd physique. Although they did have some resistance, it was noticeably weaker.
Was it because the energy value of the split was too small?
Or could it just not be inherited at all?
Bai Qi furrowed his brows slightly. This result was a bit too different from his expectations.
“Schuck, test the Energy Absorption effect.”
Schuck nodded. Various Energy Sources were immediately applied, and under the control of Gamma, the split entities rushed up madly absorbing the energy.
Well, the Energy Absorption efficiency wasn’ t bad. Although not as good as Gamma, it was able to play a role.
“So, only the last skill is left!”
Bai Qi passed the command to Gamma. Gamma promptly understood. A large green halo quickly spread out, and the remaining split bodies also released a relatively smaller circle in a copycat manner.
They could really inherit Deadly Poison Aura!
Bai Qi grinned. Even though the split bodies’ resistance wasn’t as strong as Gamma’s, being capable of using Deadly Poison Aura was enough.
Split + Deadly Poison Aura, when Gamma reaches the third stage, or when its Bloodline Level is promoted to the Lord Level, and the data of the Energy Value is pulled up, this tactic will shine.
Split + Poison, the stacked poison will be threatening enough.
After the testing, Bai Qi had Gamma recall its skill. The split bodies gradually returned to the main body, and as for the split body that burst open earlier, Gamma took the initiative to eat it.
Eating myself, Gamma was capable of really doing this.
Bai Qi made a few mockeries. Immediately after, he felt a heat wave from the Rune Mark on the back of his left hand. He immediately reacted, striding towards the nurturing room.
At this point, the nurturing room was thoroughly enveloped in the Evolution Light, and the Silver Egg had already cracked open a great deal. You could vaguely make out the tall figure inside, and occasionally hear a few howling sounds.
Seeing this spectacle, it seemed like it succeeded!
Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction. During a racial evolution, absorbing materials and acquiring skills was inevitable. Still, he wondered what skill Alpha had gained.
But his wish came true. As Bai Qi was speculating, a piece of information was transmitted into his brain.
[Skill Name]: Wind Wound
[Skill Level]: High Level
[Skill Description]: Wind-based passive skill. Elves walking in the wind can be as tyrannical as the howling wind or as silent as the breeze. But everywhere they pass, they leave behind scars that are difficult to heal.
Well…
Wind Wound… it seemed quite different from the Saber-toothed tiger’s skill…
Bai Qi was filled with curiosity. However, Alpha’s evolution hadn’t ended, so he could only wait patiently.
High-grade Lord… Maybe it could gain a new Super Skill?
