Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

“Is class over already? Perfect timing, Cha, I want to do an experiment with you. Bring your Thunder Rat.”

It was only then that Bai Qi noticed he’d spent the whole day in the secret realm, seeing Bai Qiucha, Xiao Yuan and others gathered at the assembly hall exit.

“Thunder Rat? I got it.”

Hearing Bai Qi’s words, Bai Qiucha immediately understood, took out the Thunder Rat from the Bone Dragon Secret Realm, held it in his arms, and headed towards Bai Qi.

“Wait a minute, Bai Qi. Can’t you think about Brother Cha all the time when there are benefits? Leave something for us too.”

Seeing the two were about to leave, Bai Yuxiao immediately stepped in front of them. But Bai Qi appeared indifferent, “I don’t mind making a Spirit-Control Orb for you, but you better first persuade the teacher and be prepared psychologically to lose a contract slot.”

“Uncle? Uh, never mind.”

Seeing Bai Qi invoking Bai Heguang, Bai Yuxiao instantly chickened out and categorically stopped talking about the benefits. Xiao Yuan, who understood Bai Qi’s current situation, curiously countered, “Didn’t you officially join the analysis team, Bai Qi? How do you have time to study other things?”

Bai Qi replied, “I had some insights in the analysis team, so I urgently asked Cha to test the result.”

Strictly speaking, his inspiration actually came from Lu Qing’s mechanical girl. He had to rush back as soon as this experiment was over; otherwise, he couldn’t explain it to Lan Ke.

“I see…”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan understood, “Then I won’t disturb you.”

Saying that, Xiao Yuan paused and laughed, “Oh, right. I almost forgot to congratulate you for getting another core patent. As far as I know, you are currently the first in the Federation to have two core patents.”

“Core patents? Two of them?!”

Hearing Xiao Yuan’s words, Bai Yuxiao was astonished. He looked at Bai Qi as if he was seeing a monster, “Bai Qi, how is your brain wired? You train your pets so well and yet you still have time to study patents?”

“Uh, it’s all right.”

Bai Qi scratched his head awkwardly. It was a good thing he didn’t tell him that the Spirit-Control Orb might also become a core patent. Otherwise, this guy would probably go crazy, right?

“Suddenly, I feel so stupid…”

Seeing Bai Qi admit it, Bai Yuxiao suddenly became incredibly dejected and many others felt the same way.

For example, Gu Shan and Zhou Yan…

“Well, I’d better get going.”

Seeing several people suddenly in a state of dejection, Bai Qi couldn’t help but feel a little dumbfounded, so he immediately called Bai Qiucha to go to the Association’s public training field.

“Bai Qi, you asked me to bring the Thunder Rat, is it about the Spirit-Control Orb?”

“That’s right, I modified the structure of the Spirit-Control Orb a bit, and wanted you to test the results.”

Bai Qi took out a brand-new version of the Spirit-Control Orb and handed it to Bai Qiucha, “You use this Spirit-Control Orb to contract once again.”

“Sure.”

Bai Qiucha nodded, took the Spirit-Control Orb, and began to skillfully infuse his own spirit power.

“Has the spirit power storage capacity of the Spirit-Control Orb increased?”

After injecting a large amount of spirit power, Bai Qiucha still didn’t feel the limit, which made him a little surprised.

Wasn’t it said that it is difficult to coordinate between runes and machinery, so it is temporarily impossible to increase the contract limit?

Bai Qi nodded, “Yes, but the Thunder Rat is very familiar with you, so it’s ok if it’s not full.”

The contracting of a beast through the Spirit-Control Orb consumes stored spirit power. In the case of Bai Qiucha and the Thunder Rat, which were already familiar to each other, it was just a formality, there was no need to fill it up.

“Ok.”

Bai Qiucha nodded in agreement, lifted the Spirit-Control Orb, lightly tapped it on the head of the Thunder Rat, a new rune suddenly appeared and quickly branded itself on the Thunder Rat. There was suddenly a new voice in Bai Qiucha’s mind.

“Is that you, Thunder Rat?”

Hearing the Thunder Rat, who was also curiously asking him, Bai Qiucha’s face once again showed a hint of astonishment.

Although the previous Spirit-Control Orb could establish a connection between him and the Thunder Rat, he could not understand the Thunder Rat’s words. He was simply guessing the Thunder Rat’s actions based on that thin connection.

Now, he could clearly perceive the Thunder Rat’s thoughts, and the Thunder Rat could do the same.

“Cha, can you communicate normally with the Thunder Rat now? Like with the Bone Dragon.”

Seeing Bai Qiucha’s expression, Bai Qi knew that his design was a success. But out of caution, he asked again.

“Yes, although it’s not as clear as with the Bone Dragon, but I can indeed understand the Thunder Rat’s words.”

Bai Qiucha’s eyes were shining, “Bai Qi, how did you manage to do this? Did you contract outside of the contract slot?”

“How is that possible.”

Bai Qi shook his head, “The contract is the same as before, I just enhanced the communication structure a bit, and apart from that, the binding force of the contract is not as strong as it used to be.”

“The binding force has weakened?”

Bai Qi patted Bai Qiucha on the shoulder, “Yes, so maintain a good relationship with the Thunder Rat, otherwise if he runs away one day, I won’t be responsible.”

“I get it now.”

Bai Qiucha gave a nod, lightly tapping the head of the explosive rat as if about to say something poetic, when the startled rat suddenly discharged a strong burst of electricity, gifting Bai Qiucha a hairdo for free.

The Spirit-Control Orb presently was more accurately a connector of sorts, although it could form a bond with a pet beast, the strength of such a bond depended on the user’s persuasive power.

However, looking at Bai Qiucha, it seemed he wasn’t particularly proficient at this.

“I’ll give this to you then, remember to give me feedback so I can make modifications later.”

Looking at the large-eyed stare-down between man and beast, Bai Qi didn’t linger around for much longer, directly heading to the Tower of Knowledge.

The problem of the Spirit Controller Contract and communication with the beast was solved, but it seems like it also created a dissolution problem for the Spirit Controller. Didn’t other ordinary people become petrified within minutes due to the explosive rat, like Bai Qiucha, Four Stage Beast Master?

Tsk, he’d have to tell the Thirteenth Bureau and President Qin that before popularizing the Spirit-Control Orb; he likely would have to get them to sign a contract of life and death first. Otherwise, the compensation alone would bankrupt him.

Tower of Knowledge.

As Bai Qi stepped into the gateway, he saw Lu Qing walking towards him.

“Bai Qi, what on earth have you been up to all day?”

Seeing Bai Qi finally appear, Lu Qing’s brow furrowed slightly.

While the teacher had encouraged her to learn Bai Qi’s way of thinking, although somewhat unhappy about it, she had to admit that Bai Qi was indeed more adapted to thinking out of the box than she was.

But for all the trouble she had talking herself into following Bai Qi, he had just left her hanging all day, how could she not be upset?

“Nothing much, just inspired by your mechanical girl, I resolved a few issues.”

Having understood the mechanization of the rune structure, Bai Qi effortlessly cracked a few tough issues. So, he was in a particularly good mood, and found Lu Qing somewhat more pleasing to the eye than usual.

“Inspired by the Mechanical Girl?”

Upon hearing this, Lu Qing grew even more puzzled. She had long since studied the runes on the Mechanical Girl, and although there was nothing specifically outstanding about them, they clearly had many flaws when compared to the White Meeh.

“You haven’t studied mechanics, so it won’t be easy for me to explain all at once. I’ll get around to explaining it another day when you have the time.”

Bai Qi nodded and headed straight to the research group, bypassing Lu Qing.

Although he thought he had overcome the conflict between the functioning of the runes and the mechanics, the analysis of the White Meeh was still at a standstill. Regardless, he still needed to participate.

Besides, he was somewhat curious about the technique the White Meeh used for multiple rune structure system parallel execution and flexible switching.

After all, the placement of the White Meeh’s rune structure was nothing like the mechanical arrangement style he was familiar with.

Having seen Bai Qi’s demeanor, Lu Qing, who had originally decided to go report to Lan Ke, changed her mind and followed Bai Qi to the research group.

Just like when Bai Qi left, President Qin and Master Xiao were still arguing. Only now, their discussions were no longer about theories alone, but had begun to involve hands-on examples, trying to convince each other with practical cases.

Looking at those two spirited individuals, there was a slight twitch in Bai Qi’s eye. He asked, “You two haven’t been arguing all day long, have you?”

“Strictly speaking, they’ve been arguing for three days straight.”

Lu Qing adjusted her glasses and said, “I suggest you first get these two to stop. Otherwise, it would be difficult for you to continue your research.”

“I don’t think it’s affecting anything though.”

Glancing at the Rune Masters engrossed in their own research, Bai Qi said, “Let them keep arguing for a couple more days. President Qin is a master; he can’t hold up for much longer.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than President Qin, who was engaged in a heated argument with Xiao Ding, twitched his ears. He immediately stopped, turned around, looked at Bai Qi, and snapped, “You little stinker, speaking ill of me behind my back. Are you itching for a trashing?!”

Bai Qi scratched his head and looked at President Qin, who intended to vent his anger at him. He replied, “Should I say it to your face next time?”

“You ”

President Qin was on the verge of exploding at his remarks, but seeing Bai Qi pretending to be innocent, his anger evaporated instantly.

“Forget it, it’s embarrassing to quarrel in front of youngsters. We will talk about our matters later.”

“Okay.”

Master Xiao also realized his lapse, instantly regaining his usual composure. He addressed Bai Qi, “The preliminary analysis of the White Meeh has basically been completed. The subsequent difficulties will be greater, so don’t put too much pressure on yourselves. Just observe, otherwise it will be exhausting.”

“I understand, thank you, Master Xiao.”

Lu Qing obediently nodded her head. Master Xiao wasn’t looking down on them, the failure to popularize rune knowledge was in part because it wasn’t fit for rote learning, as it could inflict severe trauma to the spirit.

In simple terms, if you stare too much at the rune, even if you don’t have trypophobia, you would develop one.

“See, problem solved.”

Seeing the two of them fold, Bai Qi smiled triumphantly, and then went back to studying the rune structure of his White Meeh.

Despite the research group having a complete holographic projection, Bai Qi preferred to think about it himself. After all, only by personally experiencing it could he deepen his understanding.

After memorizing all the blueprints, Bai Qi roughly simulated a rune structure in his mind. But at the same time, he also noticed some problems.

“Um? Why are there a few abandoned rune routes here?”
