Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

Chapter 489: Chapter 484: Death Metal Analysis

“Divine Nature? That thing isn’t something good.”

Wang Chen chuckled, threw a carefully crafted box from the side to Bai Qi, saying, “The Bo Ge family took all the valuable stuff with them in advance. This was left behind. Are you sure you want it?”

“King Legendary, doesn’t Divine Nature strengthen the physique and soul?”

Zhuge Xu, the bait player, walked over with some doubts.

“Indeed, Divine Nature can enhance the physique and soul, but it will subtly change the user’s thinking to be completely loyal to the Bo Ge family.”

Bai Heguang took out a small white stone from it saying, “I guess, this is why the Bo Ge family recruited so many foreigners, yet they never had a traitor.”

“Does it actually have such power?”

Upon hearing these words, Bai Qi was taken aback and suddenly understood why the Bo Ge family had always wanted to invite him as a guest.

It seemed that if he had agreed earlier, the Bo Ge family might have given him Divine Nature to control him.

“Exactly, that’s how it is.”

Wang Chen nodded and said, “If it wasn’t for this, the Thirteenth Bureau wouldn’t have to go to great lengths to cultivate the Zhonghu Consortium to infiltrate the Western Region and extract information.”

“This is really something.”

Bai Qi praised, judging by the looks of it, the Federation likely planned to move against the Bo Ge family even if the World-ending Sea-beast hadn’t appeared.

It was a pity about the Divine Nature, he originally wanted to get a piece of Divine Nature to awaken Zhuge Chen’s talent, but now it seemed hopeless.

Bai Qi looked at Zhuge Chen, indeed seeing some regret on his face, but he quickly came to terms with it.

There was no need to envy not becoming a Beast Master, being a Spirit Controller wasn’t bad either.

“But the Bo Ge family is indeed bold, knowing full well they received the news, but still daring to hold the Holy Light Festival as usual.”

Wang Chen looked at the guests who were being questioned by the federal soldiers, his eyes slightly squinted.

Compared to what they controlled, the number of guests was noticeably fewer, among them were idle Beast Masters attracted by the fame of the Bo Ge family.

Were they planning to fleece the crowd one last time before leaving?

“Anyway, the Bo Ge family has now gone underground from being overt, it will be difficult to catch them again.”

Bai Heguang glanced at the three Wu Yi brought by Bai Qi, saying, “These three also have a little connection with the Bo Ge family, they could serve as a breakthrough.”

“Legendary Celestial Brilliance, we don’t know anything!”

Hearing Bai Heguang’s words, Wu Yi, who had been conscious since leaving the Angel Secret Realm, immediately begged for mercy.

“Whether you know it or not, it’s not up to you to decide.”

Bai Heguang shook his head, the Blood Scythe Wraith appeared and approached Wu Yi with a grin.

Questioning the memory was a routine for him.

Perhaps shocked by the legendary aura of the Blood Scythe Wraith, or simply too embarrassed to keep up the charade, Sikong Po and Ma Quan woke up at the same time, innocently looking at Bai Heguang.

“Legendary Celestial Brilliance, we both really don’t know anything, otherwise we wouldn’t have been left out.”

“Stop resisting, if you didn’t participate, you won’t have any issues.”

Bai Heguang said lightly.

Seeing this, the three had no choice but to let the Blood Scythe Wraith have its way, once again falling into a deep sleep.

“They really didn’t know anything.”

Very soon, Bai Heguang shook his head, “To be safe, I’ve overwritten their memory of the part they heard just now.”

“Leave the rest of them to the Thirteenth Bureau.”

Wang Chen nodded, then looked to Bai Qi and Zhuge Chen, “Both of you, I won’t touch your memories, but remember to keep this secret.”

“Understood.”

Bai Qi nodded repeatedly, he guessed that if it weren’t for Bai Heguang, they would have also had their memory overwritten.

“Alright, the Thirteenth Bureau has to clean up the aftermath of the situation, no need to trouble you guys.”

Wang Chen waved his hand towards everyone. He then began to command the remaining tasks.

“Well, I’ll go first.”

Bai Heguang nodded slightly, then looked at Bai Qi, “Come back to the headquarters with me first, the president wants to see you.”

“Okay.”

Bai Qi nodded, thought for a while, and asked, “Teacher, this Sikong Po intends to join the association, should he be taken too?”

“Wang Chen will handle it, we don’t need to worry about it.”

Bai Heguang was the first to mount the Jiuyou Darkbird. Seeing this, Bai Qi didn’t say anything further. After greeting Zhuge Chen and his son, he quickly left.

“Teacher, will the Death Round Table come out again?”

Looking at the angel statue below that was gradually dimming, Bai Qi couldn’t help but ask.

“They should stay quiet for a while.”

Bai Heguang nodded, “But it’s not ruled out that they might strike out in desperation, or other members might come out to create chaos, so you have to be careful when you go out alone.”

The Bo Ge family had been recruiting talented individuals from all over the Federation, in various fields ranging from Beast Masters to scientific research.

Someone as versatile as Bai Qi, who possessed a beast with the Power of Death, wouldn’t be easily given up by the Death Round Table.

“Alright.”

Bai Qi nodded, anyway he’d be lecturing for the five departments next, he didn’t have much time to go out.

…

Six Tower.

The Jiuyou Darkbird slowly landed, and Zhao Futu seemed to have noticed the arrival of the two and suddenly appeared before them.

“Looking at this, it seems that there wasn’t much gain?”

Zhao Futu looked at Bai Heguang and said.

Bai Heguang nodded and said, “Hmm, they escaped.”

“As expected.”

Zhao Futu smiled and said, “Although it’s a bit troublesome to switch to the dark side, without the protective umbrella of the Bo Ge family, their actions will not be so convenient anymore.”

“The Thirteenth Bureau has completely set their sights on them. They should be quiet for a long time.”

Bai Heguang nodded, and Zhao Futu looked at Bai Qi and said, “Bai Qi, I heard that you caused a lot of trouble in the sea area?”

“How is that possible, someone must have framed me.”

Bai Qi looked indignant, but upon seeing Zhao Futu’s smirk and Bai Heguang’s cold face, he faltered.

“Teacher, it’s not fair to treat your disciple like this.”

“I’m just telling the truth.”

Bai Heguang replied calmly, “Chairman, didn’t you have something to ask Bai Qi?”

“Yes, let’s deal with the main issue first.”

Zhao Futu nodded, and then Bai Qi felt the surroundings change, and found himself in the Holy Relic Tower.

Xiang Li, as the Tower Master, seemed to know in advance that they were coming back and was ready.

“Excellent timing, we are currently testing the imitation of Death Metal, you can join us.”

Xiang Li led them to the test area of the Holy Relic Tower, where Bai Qi saw Yi Xiaowei carefully throwing a piece of black metal fragment onto a bronze ingot.

Compared to the bronze ingot, the black metal fragment was pitifully small, but after it fell onto the bronze ingot, it corroded the bronze ingot as quickly as a parasite.

In a short moment, the bronze ingot was devoured by the black metal clean, and the black metal became thumb-sized.

“Able to devour other metals to feed itself?”

Bai Qi was astonished and asked, “Did we really replicate Death Metal?”

Xiang Li shook his head and said, “Not yet, only part of its properties have been analyzed, we need more time to fully study it.”

“However, based on the currently known data, Yi Xiaowei made some imitations.”

Having heard this, Bai Qi understood and couldn’t control his research curiosity. He went to Yi Xiaowei and began to study.

“Can this metal autonomously devour other metals to grow?”

“It possesses a certain degree of autonomy, but there’s a limit. At most, it can grow to the size of a fist, after which it will enter a fatigue period, showing no reaction.”

Yi Xiaowei shook her head and then suddenly realized Bai Qi’s presence.

“Bai Qi, how did you come?”

Bai Qi shrugged and said, “I came back with my teacher and was brought over by the Chairman.”

“It turns out that’s the case.”

Yi Xiaowei nodded then excitedly said, “The metal you gave me last time was so peculiar, it incorporated many other substances besides the main material, Bright Spirit Gold.”

“Even though I only analyzed part of it, it provided me with a lot of inspirations.”

As she spoke, Yi Xiaowei passed a file to Bai Qi and said, “The teacher and I spent a long time analyzing it and found some tissue of fleshy organisms in it.”

“In other words, this Death Metal can completely be regarded as a special type of metallic life.”

“Metallic life?”

Bai Qi was taken aback, he quickly flipped through the document, and his eyes invariably grew brighter.

Metal life isn’t like the mechanical beast life form.

Although the Mechanical Beast has an independent soul and can freely control its mechanical body, its body is still pure metal.

But from this document from the Holy Relic Tower, this Death Metal possessed characteristics of both metal and biological cells.

Simply put, Death Metal was truly alive.

“However, it’s still very difficult to fully replicate it and will take time. My imitation, other than devouring metals to self-repair and grow, cannot endure any other abilities, let alone the power of death.”

Yi Xiaowei was somewhat regretful, and Bai Qi seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Zhao Futu and others and asked, “Chairman Zhao, did you invite me here to let the Super God Evolution Research Institute participate in the research as well?”

“That’s right, apart from the Holy Relic Tower, I also let the Jiuli Group research this metal, but the gains were not substantial, so I want you at the Super God Evolution Research Institute to give it a try, perhaps you will have other findings.”

Zhao Futu nodded and said, “If we can master this technology and reproduce something like the Death Knight, it will be of great help whether it’s to combat the Death Round Table or resist the tribes.”

“I understand.”

Bai Qi nodded repeatedly. Even if Zhao Futu didn’t mention it, he had already been considering this. The only problem was that his research was on Soul Charm, and he didn’t have any progress on Death Metal.

But now with this document from the Holy Relic Tower and the complete version of Soul Charm obtained from the Bo Ge family, it was only a matter of time.

Xiang Li took out a specially made box and placed the inert metal into it, and handed it to Bai Qi along with it, saying, “To save time, you can take away the research materials from the Holy Relic Tower and Xiaowei’s samples. I hope it can help you.”

“I understand.”

Bai Qi nodded, took the box, and then turned to Zhao Futu and asked,

“By the way, Chairman, how is the Ice Spirit Jade Rabbit doing recently?”
