Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

7 Chapter 6: Predecessors Truly Did Not Deceive Me

Bai Qi naturally noticed their gazes and was quite satisfied with his modifications.

When he designed the shoulder guards, he not only considered strengthening the joint connections but also replaced the joints with spherical joints commonly used in mechanical beasts.

With this type of joint installed, Alpha’s movements were not limited to conventional cognition, and its degree of freedom in movement was substantially enhanced.

Only an undead creature like Alpha could undergo such an operation. Other pets wouldn’t be able to.

Watching Alpha in the field effortlessly dodging the ice arrows with his constantly twisting body, Bai Qi suddenly lost some interest in the training and thought about leaving.

The experiment results were apparent. There seemed to be no point in staying around longer, especially when they weren’t training for actual combat.

The training had only started fifteen minutes ago. Shouldn’t the front desk be willing to refund him?

“That kid’s expression, why does it annoy me so much…”

Seeing the bored expression on Bai Qi’s face, Lan Shao suddenly felt an inexplicable irritation. The Arctic Ice Wolf King felt the same way, and the originally slender ice arrows suddenly transformed into ice cones.

Crackle, crackle.

When the ice arrows changed into ice cones, Alpha immediately felt the pressure increase. His original relaxed movements suddenly became a bit rushed, but after a brief adaptation, he managed to cope.

The innocent Ghost Bone Giant Tiger, however, wasn’t as fortunate. After struggling for a while, it was hit by the concentrated ice cones and had its leg bone be broken, temporarily losing its fighting capability.

It was because the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger was injured that Lan Shao realized his error. He immediately ordered the Ice Wolf King to stop its actions and asked Bai Qi, “Has your skeleton soldier undergone mutations?”

Bai Qi nodded when he heard the question, he didn’t have any intention of hiding anything, and candidly admitted it.

Little Skeleton’s speed was so exaggerated. If he didn’t admit that it was a mutation, others might suspect him.

Although the Evolution Egg seemed to be very similar to the Beast Master Talent, it was better to be cautious.

Moreover, Alpha was indeed a mutant species.

“I see, that explains it.”

Lan Shao nodded. Even though the modifications were refreshingly new, even without them, the Skeleton Soldier’s speed was unusually high.

It was somewhat wasteful to have this rare mutation, which you might not come across even if you were to have ten thousand beasts, happening on a skeleton soldier that was doomed to have no future.

But, Lan Shao’s professional ethics would not let him express his improper remarks. After a brief pause, he continued speaking, “Since your pet is a mutant, I will increase the difficulty a bit.”

Lan Shao made eye contact with the Ice Wolf King, and the wolf understood immediately. With a long howl, the temperature in the training field dropped several degrees, and frost gradually appeared on the ground.

“Your Ghost Bone Giant Tiger should be okay, right?”

Lan Shao looked towards Lu Yuan’s Ghost Bone Giant Tiger. The leg bone broken by the ice cone had already been reconnected and regained movement.

The biggest advantage of the Undead Department Beasts is that unless they encounter an attribute counter, they can fully recover given sufficient time.

“In that case, let’s get started.”

Seeing Lu Yuan nod, Lan Shao completely ignored Bai Qi, who seemed eager to speak but did not, and launched another attack.

Didn’t this guy intend to let me get a refund?

Bai Qi rolled his eyes in annoyance. Watching the Arctic Ice Wolf launching another attack, he had no choice but to make Alpha resist the Ice Wolf King’s attack with all his might.

Through the brief battle before, the Ice Wolf King had generally understood the situation of their two sparring partners. Even though the ice spear attack was the same, the rhythm was inconsistent. Sometimes an Ice Storm would be mixed in, and the frost on the ground made it even harder for the two beasts to dodge.

This time, the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger lasted even a shorter time before it was defeated. Lu Yuan did not force the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger to keep resisting, letting it rest on the side instead.

Although Undead Department Beasts have high resistance to non-attribute counter attacks, it still takes time for them to recover. Moreover, the Ghost Bone Giant Tiger spent a lot of energy when it used its abilities and needed time to recover.

During the respite, Lu Yuan finally had time to observe Alpha slowly.

An undead beast is not like a regular beast. Strictly speaking, there is no such thing as a bloodline. To mutate, it either needed to have an unusual status when it was alive or be exposed to something special after its death.

Looking at the appearance of the Little Skeleton, the latter seemed more likely.

“After it’s over, I should ask him where he got this skeleton soldier. Maybe there will be some unexpected gains.”

Lu Yuan made up his mind.

When Lu Yuan was making his own calculations, Bai Qi was gradually immersing himself in the training.

He had only sworn an alliance with Alpha for one day. They hadn’t even participated in a decent battle. Instead, it was through this training that he was beginning to feel the allure of beast warfare.

“Alpha, go invisible.”

Seeing that Alpha, who was clearly becoming more harried, Bai Qi took the initiative to give orders. Alpha’s originally an frigid-white bone immediately became blurred and slowly disappeared from their vision.

“Invisibility skill? Not bad, but the skill level is too low.”

Seeing Little Skeleton using invisibility, Lan Shao couldn’t help but praise it. However, he soon found Little Skeleton’s traces. After sending a thought to the Ice Wolf King, the beast heavily pounded the ground. Rows of ice spikes erupted from the ground, resembling a long snake slithering towards a dark corner.

Upon seeing this, Alpha immediately tried to dodge. His body wobbled suddenly, however, and his movements slowed down for a brief moment, forcing him to watch the ice spikes envelop him.

The Arctic Ice Wolf King stopped its attack in time, but Little Skeleton’s leg bones were hit by the ice spikes, breaking on the spot.

“This is an exclusive training field for the Undead Department. The recovery speed of undead creatures here is faster than usual, so there’s no need to worry.”

Upon seeing Little Skeleton injured, Lan Shao promptly explained.

After all, he was a trainee Beast Master. In case he knew nothing and complained about him later, it would be quite troublesome.

Bai Qi nodded, allowing Alpha to use Bone-breaking Reformation to repair himself, while thoughtfully observing Alpha’s mechanical joints.

Alpha was clearly aware of the previous attack, but because his movements were unstable, he was hit.

It seemed that even if he chose some lightweight metals for manufacturing, the changes to Alpha’s center of gravity were unavoidable.

The structure still needed to be simplified. Some unnecessary defenses could be abandoned.

He also needed to think about how to assemble weapons later.

Tsk…

While Alpha’s speed was exaggeratingly high, its other basic attributes were too poor, resulting in its speed advantage not being fully utilized.

The barrel effect, those before me were not deceiving me.
