Runes

Bai Qi scratched his head somewhat embarrassingly, intending to assist Gao Cheng by taking the Fire Armor Scorpion for treatment. However, a Light Elf flew in from a distance, circled around the Fire Armor Scorpion, and the Fire Armor Scorpion immediately returned to its original state.
Due to holding the Fire Armor Scorpion, Gao Cheng was similarly affected by the dust that the Light Elf sprinkled. Both his strength and spirit returned to their peak state within an instant.
Another Light Elf?
Bai Qi’s eyes instantly lit up, and he looked at President Qin, saying, “President, I have also overexhausted myself a bit. Could you also let the Light Elf treat me?”
He did not get a chance to take advantage of the Light Elf last time, this time he definitely had to make use of this opportunity well.
“Get lost!”
As if you’ve exhausted yourself. Shameless!
President Qin glanced at Alpha, asking, “How did you think of engraving runes on pets?”
Bai Qi replied: “I learned it from the Tower of Gratitude but I’m still in the experimentation stage.”
President Qin was silent. Celestial Brilliance wouldn’t let you mechanically modify the undead, so you switched to runes directly?
“Ahem…Old Qin, if there’s anything you can discuss it with me later, I still have
to compete.”
Seeing President Qin’s expression, Mo Guan immediately issued an eviction order. Knowing that it wasn’t really appropriate to discuss these matters, President Qin directly transported Bai Qi to the adjoining rest room.
“Are all runes usable in this way?”
President Qin pondered for a moment, seemingly considering something. “President, you really have high hopes for me. A total of 140,981 runes, do you consider me a master of the Rune Department?”
Bai Qi twitched at the corner of his eye. The amount of runes in the Rune Dictionary was simply too large, and most of them were simply categorized without any details on their functionality.
If it wasn’t for the assistance of the Rune Rubik’s Cube and Rune Glasses, Bai Qi didn’t believe he could find those runes.
Seeing Bai Qi’s strange gaze, President Qin knew that he was being overly optimistic. “Then, can the runes you’re using now be applied to other pets too?” Although Bai Qi only used two runes earlier, the effects were rather impressive.
It is fair to say that such a rune is equivalent to giving the pet an extra skill.
Moreover, from what he learned, Bai Qi seemed to have used other runes during the real battle assessment too.
If the use of runes could be popularized, the Federation’s strength would certainly take a leap forward!
“It should work on all skeletal-type creatures. As for other types, I haven’t tested them yet.”
Bai Qi thought for a moment, gave an honest answer, but when he thought of engraving runes on other types of pets, Bai Qi felt it was a bit strange.
If I gave the pets tattoos, wouldn’t that affect them negatively…
“Alright, when we get back I’ll have someone send several Skeletal creatures over to you for testing. If there are any issues with the runes, I’ll contact Professor Dong to assist you.”
Having received confirmation from Bai Qi, President Qin’s eyes shone brightly as he forcefully issued orders to Bai Qi.
“President, are you sure you want me to undertake such high-end research, since I’m merely a mechanical martial arts student?”
“So you remember that you are a mechanical martial arts student.
Bai Qi found it difficult to comprehend President Qin’s ideas, but President Qin didn’t care, saying: “All these years, I haven’t seen anyone engrave runes on pets. For now, you just give it a try.”
“Oh.”
Seeing that Old Qin seemed to be set on him, Bai Qi had no choice but to reluctantly agree.
It was high time he tried some runes he dared not try on Alpha.
“By the way, the Thirteenth Bureau sent a message. The Mythical Material you requested got approved and should arrive in a few days.”
Finally, it’s coming?
Bai Qi’s eyes lit up at the news. If it did not arrive soon, he would not hold back and would immediately have Alpha evolve. After all, keeping it waiting wasn’t exactly right and it kept delaying Alpha’s evolution rhythm.
President Qin looked at Bai Qi, saying: “I know your luck is good, but don’t blame me for not reminding you. In the past, there have been Beast Masters who mishandled Mythical Materials and ended up dead. So, be careful.”
“Once the material arrives, I’ll come and help you figure out the best way to use it. If necessary, I’ll ask Celestial Brilliance. He knows more about this than I
do.”
“Understood!”
Bai Qi nodded confidently.
If all went according to plan, Alpha would surely drain himself again during this evolution process. Considering the effects of the mythical material, it might even be a bit more exaggerated than last time. Therefore, for safety’s sake, even if President Qin didn’t mention it, he himself would have volunteered to find President Qin.
But how should he explain it then?
An undead creature backlash? That seemed feasible too.
“All right, there’s still competition going on over there. I can’t be away for too long, let’s head back.”
Bai Qi nodded, once again escorted by President Qin back to the arena.
The Little Ling Mountain Arena.
A petite raccoon was quietly hovering in mid-air.
On the opposite side of the raccoon, a somewhat fragmented Ghost Bone Giant Tiger was watching the raccoon warily, not daring to get any closer.
[Name]: Nocturnal Raccoon
[Nature]: Super Energy Type
[Bloodline Level]: Low-level Lord
[Skills]: Night Surprise Attack, Mind Power Orb, Intimidation
Lu Yuan’s face was solemn at the moment, not daring to let the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger act rashly.
Despite the raccoon being small enough to be swallowed by the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger in one gulp, the raccoon had not allowed the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger to get any closer since the start of the fight.
“Darn it, can I report this guy for cheating?!”
As he watched the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger being toyed with by the opponent,
Lu Yuan was cursing internally.
The levels of the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger and the Nocturnal Raccoon were close. Even the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger had mastered the Intimidation skill due to its race. With Lu Yuan’s enhancement talent added, there was hardly any gap between the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger and the Nocturnal Raccoon.
But Zhang Kai’s talent was outrageously unfair as it could forcefully disable his own talent.
For a Beast Master with combat talent, the loss of talent bonus would cause the pet’s combat power to be halved.
“Roar!”
The Nocturnal Raccoon seemed to get a bit bored. Its initially closed eyes slowly opened. The arena, which was originally bright, was suddenly enveloped in darkness, and the raccoon’s figure gradually disappeared from the platform.
Ghost Bone Giant Tiger immediately went into defense mode. Being an undead creature, the darkness had no effect on it.
As expected, as soon as the Nocturnal Raccoon appeared from the darkness, the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger responded. It tried to counterattack with a claw swing but missed as the Nocturnal Raccoon teleported behind the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger. Its originally small body suddenly swelled, and a series of punches smashed the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger into fragments.
“The Ghost Bone Giant Tiger has lost its combat capabilities, Zhang Kai advances!”
Master Mo Guan looked at the relaxed Zhang Kai and the frustrated Lu Yuan, announcing the result of the game.
Lu Yuan’s enhancement talent was impressive, undoubtedly one of the most suitable talents for combat. However, it was indeed at a disadvantage against Zhang Kai’s Silent Talent.
But Lu Yuan’s mentality was somewhat poorer. If he had observed more carefully, he would have found that Zhang Kai’s talent could not be maintained for a long time.
Still, Zhang Kai’s talent was quite extraordinary.
With proper training, he would absolutely become a great talent.
“Thank you.”
Despite the easy victory, Zhang Kai showed no signs of excitement.
Lu Yuan was not weak, but compared to Bai Qi and Xia Xuan, he was still a bit lacking, and Lu Yuan had never been his goal.
Seeing Zhang Kai’s attitude, Lu Yuan grew even more irritated and said, “I admit I’m not your opponent, but you’re still far from being able to beat Bai Qi.” Lu Yuan wasn’t bluffing with those words. Although he hadn’t fought Bai Qi formally, judging by Bai Qi’s fight against the Haoli Dojo, the Nocturnal Raccoon was not as strong as that horrific skeleton from Bai Qi.
At least, he didn’t think the Nocturnal Raccoon could surprise attack Alpha. Hearing Lu Yuan’s words, Zhang Kai’s stride faltered. As if sensing something, he turned to look at Bai Qi who had just emerged from the resting room. His eyes were full of hostility.
“Uh, what just happened?”
Bai Qi looked confusedly at Zhang Kai and scratched his head in bewilderment..
