204 Blackie Waiting to Evolve (2)
Especially that pair of round panda ears, Qin Zhilan could not bear to part with them.
Lin Ye looked at the “deal” between this man and bear and felt that it was a little strange.
This… could Blackie be considered to have sold its body in exchange for food?
The problem was that he did not starve it usually!
After stroking it for a while, Qin Zhilan felt that her body seemed to have been emptied. She hurriedly took off the seemingly endless vine on her arm and handed it to the forest elf behind her.
“Use it to grow crazily and let our little bear eat its fill!”
After the forest elf took the vines from Qin Zhilan, its palm began to emit the energy it had used to ripen those seeds on the second floor.
The vines that were originally only as thick as a forearm suddenly expanded.
However, this did not affect Blackie’s eating.
It was like it was “eating noodles”. Its two claws kept grabbing the vine and pulling it into its mouth.
Qin Zhilan, whose body had almost been emptied, was focused on stroking Blackie.
The entire scene actually looked abnormally harmonious.
Until…
“Burp ~”
After Blackie burped, its two claws relaxed slightly and it threw the vines that it had treated as its life on the ground.
Then, Lin Ye watched as this guy swayed its round head twice as if it was drunk and directly leaned back—
Dong ~
After a soft sound, this guy directly lay on the floor and fell asleep.
“Snore ~”
“Snore ~”
Qin Zhilan, who had been stroking the panda just now, looked at Blackie on the ground and then at the vine that was gradually withering without the energy maintenance of the forest sprite. For a moment, she was a little confused.
“This… I…”
“No, it’s not poisonous!”
Qin Zhilan, who had ignored the snoring, thought that it was her problem.
“No, it’s fine.”
“It just fell asleep.”
Hearing Lin Ye’s words, Qin Zhilan heaved a sigh of relief.
She just wanted to pet the panda.
She was indeed frightened when she suddenly knocked this panda to the ground.
“What’s wrong with it?”
Qin Zhilan pointed at Blackie, who was lying on the ground with its chest heaving slightly, and asked Lin Ye worriedly.
Lin Ye looked at the Beast Taming Index and explained with a smile,
“This guy is about to evolve, so it’s prepared to have a good sleep after eating and drinking its fill.”
“Evolution?”
“Yes.”
After feeding it for nearly two months, Blackie had finally reached the threshold of evolution.
He thought of the Concentration Fruit Yang Wei had obtained from the Great Sage’s dead “crown” and the evolution grass provided in his system shop.
Now, he only needed to find another crystal core of a high-level mutated beast that was compatible with Blackie.
As for the attributes…
It was best if there was compatibility. It did not matter if there was not.
After all, the attributes of the crystal core affected the direction of the beast’s evolution more.
Just like Yang Wei’s Mysterious Water Turtle.
When evolving, it used the ice-type crystal core of the Ice Snapping Turtle.
After evolution, it would directly become the Mysterious Ice Turtle.
This evolution direction could indeed be considered to have improved.
After all, in terms of attributes, the ice attribute was indeed stronger than the water attribute. Its immediate lethality was greater.
Blackie was an existence with both metal and wood attributes.
In other words, evolution in these two directions could unleash its talent.
Of course, if he could obtain crystal cores that contained these two attributes at the same time, it would naturally be best.
Looking at Blackie sleeping soundly there, Lin Ye wondered if he should take a look outside the city.
After all, it could already evolve. Crystal cores were necessary.
Moreover, high-level crystal cores were very difficult to buy.
Even if they could buy it, their races or attributes might not be compatible.
It was best to go out and hunt by himself.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye gestured for Qin Zhilan to sit by herself for a while. Then, he took out his communicator and called Yang Wei, who had just left.
He did not know what Yang Wei was doing just now. After a while, the call was picked up.
“Hey, Hall Master Lin, what’s wrong? Are those polluters here again?”
Hearing Yang Wei pant slightly, Lin Ye shook his head.
“Not really.”
“I just want to ask Vice President Yang if you know where there are bear-type mutated beasts?”
Yang Wei was stunned for a moment before reacting and saying in surprise,
“Is Hall Master Lin’s panda about to evolve?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Hehehe, congratulations ~”
After Yang Wei smiled and congratulated him, he thought for a moment and said,
“Logically speaking, most bear-type beasts are in the forest.”
“However, there are fewer forests in Jiangzhou, and they’re all not very dense.”
“The forest we saw by the lake where we encountered the Ice Snapping Turtle last time is already considered big.”
“If you want to encounter bear-type beasts as soon as possible, you probably still have to go to Qingquan City.”
“Clear Spring City?”
“Yes.”
Yang Wei explained,
“There are many forests over there, or rather, after leaving the city, it’s basically forests.”
“There are many large mutated beasts inside.”
“It’s not like our Jiangzhou. It’s more of a desolate Gobi or sandstone land.”
Lin Ye, who had left the city once, nodded in understanding.
“Alright, thank you, Vice President Yang.”
“Hahaha, it’s a small matter.”
“By the way, Hong Zhijun should be in the direction of Clear Spring City now. Hall Master Lin, if you go over, you might even encounter them.”
“Okay, okay.”
“Yes, talk to you later ~”
After hanging up the communicator, Yang Wei looked at Chen Xiang, who was tied to a metal chair in the next cell. A trace of lightning slowly condensed on his fingertips.
On the other side, Lin Ye began to investigate the route to Qingquan City.
Although he did not have to reach Qingquan City, the probability was still higher if he followed this path.
Of course, he could also go to the mercenary’s territory and ask like Hong Zhijun and Yang Wei previously.
After all, those mercenaries who were not afraid of death might have encountered bear-type beasts.
Thinking of this, Lin Ye looked at Blackie, who was sleeping soundly there, and directly put this guy into the Beast Taming Index.
“Doctor Qin, I might go on a long trip later. You don’t have to come over for the time being.”
“By the way, remember not to leave school as much as possible.”
“I wonder when those polluters will sneak in again.”
Hearing Lin Ye’s instructions, Qin Zhilan bit her lip and nodded.
“Um…”
“What happened?”
“Be careful.”
“Haha, don’t worry. I will.”
Yes, Lin Ye would not casually set up a flag like “nothing will happen”.
After sending Qin Zhilan off, Lin Ye began to count the things he had to bring out.
However, before that, he still decided to go to the mercenaries’ territory to ask.
What if?
With the Great Sage, Little Tanuki, and Blackie, who had fallen into a deep sleep, Lin Ye hailed a taxi and rushed towards the square at the east city gate.
Looking at the still lively square, Lin Ye thought of the tavern owner Marvin had said last time that his tavern was called the “Beast Taming Tavern”, so he searched around for this tavern.
When he saw that there was really a signboard of the Beast Taming Tavern in a corner of the square, Lin Ye smiled and walked over.
He was wondering if he should ask the tavern owner called Marvin for authorization fees.
He walked into the tavern. Because it was only afternoon and not the time for business in the tavern to be good, there were not many people in the tavern.
Walking to the bar counter, Lin Ye looked at the bartender wiping glasses and directly asked,
“Hello, I’m looking for Boss Marvin. Is he here?”
When the bartender heard that Lin Ye was looking for Marvin, he yawned at the cup in his hand and shook his head as he wiped it.
“He’s not here.”
“Uh… Alright.”
Seeing that Lin Ye was still standing there after saying that, the bartender could not help but ask,
“Can I get you something to drink?”
Lin Ye waved his hand.
It could not be said that his alcohol tolerance was not good. It could only be said that he got drunk the moment he touched it.
“Then where can we issue missions here?”
Hearing Lin Ye say this, the bartender was a little interested.
“It can be released here.”
