But it was truly strong.
Lin Su had two pet beasts test it out, and even a just-learned Devouring of Nihility could swallow a Frost Silence Storm of Qiuqiu level three.
Although it drained Qiuqiu’s physical strength completely, compared to the energy consumption of executing Frost Silence Storm, it seemed not worth it. However, a level one skill being able to counter a level three skill indicated that Devouring of Nihility was definitely promising for the future.
Now that Qiuqiu’s Substitute skill had successfully broken through to level three, the next Dream Crystal Stone in the Beast Taming Tower was undoubtedly destined for this skill without hesitation.
Besides that, it was time to schedule Qiuqiu’s evolution.
Lin Su had mentioned before that once Qiuqiu’s Substitute skill reached level three, he could provide the evolution resources to evolve it into a Master of Tricks, and now that Qiuqiu had achieved this, he as a Beast Tamer naturally would not go back on his word.
But at this point, Qiuqiu was somewhat reluctant to evolve, expressing a preference to delay it for a while.
The reason was quite simple.
Devouring of Nihility was immensely useful; if it could enhance its proficiency level to level two or even level three within a short period in the Beast Taming Tower, it would greatly boost its strength.
And once it evolved, venturing into the Beast Taming Tower again would mean starting from scratch with even lower skill proficiency, facing stronger opponents, making it not as simple as it was now.
Lin Su naturally had no objections to Qiuqiu’s decision.
…
A somewhat withered leaf swayed mildly as the breeze blew, then detached from the branch, floating lightly downwards and tracing a curve through midair.
“Huh!”
Lin Su, standing tranquilly under the tree, gun in one hand behind his back, suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of sharpness in his gaze, and his ghostly spear burst forth with a sharp breaking sound in an instant.
Gunning!
With the momentum of a thundering force, the tip of the ghostly spear, under Lin Su’s precise control, halted just before touching the leaf. The transition from motion to stillness was so abrupt that it brought a suffocating pressure.
At the tip of the spear, the leaf quietly disintegrated into dust.
The spear wasn’t there, but the force had arrived.
Nameless Spear Technique’s first form—Cloud Piercing.
The Space Ring flashed with light, and he withdrew his ghostly spear.
Looking at the dim sky, then at the two pet beasts training nearby, a smile appeared on Lin Su’s face.
“All right, today’s training is over.”
“Jie! (｡⊙‿⊙｡)” (Here I come!)
“Mii! ฅ(≧ω≦)ฅ” (Here I come!)
The two pet beasts stopped their training and quickly dashed towards Lin Su’s arms.
“Let’s go,” Lin Su said with a smile, switching to telepathic communication. “It’s time to go back to Blue Star.”
Once back, he would gather to prepare for the departure to the mysterious Joint Preparatory Camp.
Leading the two pet beasts into the room, Lin Su pointed to the dozens of bottles of energy liquid neatly placed on the floor and smiled slightly, “Qiuqiu, it’s up to you now.”
“Jie!” (No problem!)
With a casual wave from Qiuqiu, black smoke quickly enveloped the energy liquids. As the smoke disappeared, the energy liquids also vanished from their place, collected into its magician’s pocket.
Each bottle of this energy liquid was a perfectly leveled basic energy liquid, diverse in type but with full functionality, prepared by Lin Su as a fallback for the Joint Preparatory Camp.
If it wasn’t enough, he could continue to formulate more in the God of Martial Arts World later.
As Qiuqiu retracted the energy liquid, Lin Su casually picked up a long spear that was leaning against the wall.
It was a bright silver long spear, identical in shape to Lin Su’s Ghost Spear, but the material was obviously different.
He picked it up and weighed it, unable to help shaking his head.
It was too light.
This spear, forged from a special metal, weighed only two pounds.
For him in the Divine Martial World, holding this spear felt as light as cotton.
But for him on Blue Star, this was the optimal weight for a weapon.
The weight of the Ghost Spear was a full one hundred and fifty pounds, a weight the body on Blue Star couldn’t even lift, let alone wield using spear techniques, so naturally, he had to forge a new spear for that body.
In the matter of weapons, compared to the manufacturing methods of Blue Star’s technology, he still trusted the meticulously crafted results of the weapon forgers from the Divine Martial World more. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
After also handing over the bright silver long spear to Qiuqiu for storage, Lin Su retracted his two pets into the Beast Taming Space, lay down on the bed, and slowly closed his eyes.
…
Blue Star.
After casually turning off the alarm clock, Lin Su sat up and looked toward the long spear resting in the corner of the room, he couldn’t help but grin.
This long spear and the one he had someone forge in the Divine Martial were almost indistinguishable in appearance.
But it was custom-made using the industrial technology of Blue Star.
Next, to avoid exposing Qiuqiu’s magic pocket and storage capabilities, Lin Su had to personally carry the spear to the assembly point, this long spear was deliberately forged as a decoy to explain the origin of the spear.
After hiding the decoy in the corner under the bed, Lin Su’s feet glowed with a goose yellow light forming an array, and he summoned Qiuqiu and Qiuqiu.
“Jie!” (Give!)
Upon meeting Lin Su’s gaze, Qiuqiu understood implicitly and reached into the black smoke, pulling out a long spear several times taller than its body.
“Alright, it’s time for us to set off.” Taking the long spear, Lin Su checked his communicator and smiled, “Before we head to the assembly, we still need to make a trip to the Beast Taming Association.”
“The items I exchanged for have arrived.”
“Mi! (ˊωˋ)ฅ” (My little brother’s evolution resources!)
Qiuqiu raised a small paw and answered eagerly.
“Right.” Lin Su smiled.
Learning from the lessons of Qiuqiu’s evolution, this time he outright exchanged all of Qiuqiu’s evolution resources on Blue Star.
After all, he was not short on contribution points.
Though Qiuqiu was not planning to evolve just then, Lin Su wasn’t sure if he’d still have the chance to use contribution points to exchange for evolution resources after entering the cooperative preparation camp, so he had prepared them in advance for Qiuqiu.
That way, even within the cooperative preparation camp, Qiuqiu could evolve at any time without arousing suspicion.
All preparations complete, Lin Su opened the door and walked out of the dorm with his two pets.
His expression was spirited, his fighting spirit higher than ever.
“Let’s see just how dangerous this cooperative preparation camp really is!”
“Jie! (⊙ᗜ⊙)” (Charge, charge, charge!)
“Mi! (ᓀωᓂ)” (Watch me defeat the enemy with a glance!)
