The wisdom of the Ice Skeleton after evolution was clearly higher than that of the previous Skeleton Soldier, and it seemed to fear Alpha a bit more than to merely obey it as before.

“Alpha, let it try to attack you?”

Alpha nodded, gave instructions to the Ice Skeleton, but the latter obviously didn’t dare to offend Alpha, which was superior in both bloodline and growth level, and it stood shivering on the spot.

“Oh, it’s too timid. At least Alpha was brave enough to resist legendary

creatures.”

Looking at the behaviour of the Ice Skeleton, Bai Qi couldn’t help feeling a little disgusted and had no choice but to let Schuck test the Ice Skeleton.

“It’s no different from the Ice Skeleton recorded in the pictorial book. It should be considered a successful evolution.”

Hearing Schuck’s words, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction.

If Ice Clan runes could evolve the Skeleton Soldier into the Ice Skeleton, could runes of other clans do the same?

Or, could he carve runes before Alpha’s evolution and then they will permanently retain the effect of the runes after the evolution?

Bai Qi was more and more excited, his fiery eyes swept over the remaining ten Skeleton Soldiers, his face full of eagerness to try.

Ding Dong! Ding Dong!

President Qin and Professor Dong were standing at Bai Qi’s door, repeatedly

pressing the doorbell.

Because Bai Qi had been missing for over ten days in the past, President Qin this time gave up on contacting him and brought Professor Dong directly to his home.

However, even so,

He waited at the door for about ten minutes, but saw no sign of Bai Qi opening

it.

“This little brat, how dare he keep me waiting this long. I’ll have to give him a

good beating later.”

Watching the unopened front door, President Qin’s forehead vein popped out, and he was ready to break in.

Professor Dong sighed, “After all, you’re the president of an association, can’t you have some patience? Anyway, I have the whole day free today, so there’s no rush.”

President Qin shook his head, “That’s because you don’t know this boy’s situation. If I didn’t remind him last time, he would have missed the professional assessment.”

“It’s quite normal, Bai Qi is a promising researcher. It’s human nature to get so engrossed that you don’t notice the outside world. Don’t I often do the same?”

Oh great, it seems like I’m the odd one out here.

President Qin glared at Professor Dong a few times, then saw a car stop in front of Bai Qi’s house, and then Zhuge Chen got out of the car.

“President Qin, Professor Dong?”

Looking at President Qin and Professor Dong standing at Bai Qi’s front door, Zhuge Chen was a little puzzled, “Are you here to see Bai Qi?”

President Qin nodded, “Yes, I came to see him for something. Are you also here for Bai Qi?”

Zhuge Chen said, “I’m here to take him over to my dad’s place to renegotiate

the endorsement contract.”

The reason the Zhuge family could become so big and powerful in Gusu City was that they had an excellent relationship with the Beast Master Association. The initiative to seek Bai Qi’s endorsement was something that President Qin had known in advance.

President Qin chuckled, “It’s a good thing you came. If you were any later, Bai Qi might have been targeted by someone else.

Zhuge Chen said, “I originally wanted to come earlier, but I thought Bai Qi deserved a few days of rest, so I waited till now. Besides, I’ve already arranged it with Bai Qi before, so he shouldn’t be stolen by someone else.”

“By the way, why are you two coming to see Bai Qi?

President Qin nodded, “I assigned a task to Bai Qi before, and I brought Professor Dong today to give him some guidance. Who knew this boy hasn’t responded till now?”

Seeing President Qin’s angry expression, Zhuge Chen also couldn’t help but smile, “He’s probably busy with some strange research. But I just contacted him before, he should be out soon.”

As soon as his voice faded, the front door slowly opened, and Bai Qi, with dark circles under his eyes, poked his head out from behind the door.

“President Qin, Professor Dong, Zhuge Chen? Why have you all come together? Bai Qi looked puzzled at the three, while Zhuge Chen explained with a smile, “I just arrived and saw President Qin and Professor Dong waiting at your front door. Then you opened the door.”

Bai Qi yawned and tried to look alert, inviting the three of them into the house. Professor Dong scanned Bai Qi from head to toe and spoke softly, “Bai Qi, your current state is too bad to accurately draw runes for your pets. I suggest you put that task aside.”

President Qin also said, “Yes, that research isn’t urgent. I especially brought Professor Dong today so he could give you some pointers, it’s a chance for you to save some time.”

“Drawing runes? But I’ve already completed that.

Bai Qi took a bottle of God’s Water out of the fridge to drink, pointed in the direction of Alpha’s training room and said, “Look, it’s there.

President Qin and Professor Dong exchanged surprised looks, then quickly walked towards the training room.

Inside the training room, several differently colored Skeleton Soldiers were desperately dodging the Pea Shooter’s attacks. At the side, an arctic double-headed Ice Wolf was seriously taking down data.

“Is this, the Skeleton Soldiers I gave you?”

President Qin looked uncertainly at Bai Qi, finding it difficult to associate these creatures with the previous Skeleton Soldiers.

“Yes, these are the ones that successfully evolved. The rest were all destroyed from rune energy disorder.”

“You mentioned evolution earlier?”

President Qin’s eyes suddenly lit up as he grabbed Bai Qi’s shoulder and stared at him intently, “All these developments happened after applying runes?” Bai Qi nodded, and Professor Dong immediately began examining the evolved skeletal soldiers more closely.

“It’s true that they haven’t evolved long, but can runes actually foster the evolution of pets?”

Professor Dong adjusted her glasses, turned to Bai Qi, and asked, “Can you demonstrate it once more in front of me?”

She had dedicated her life to studying runes and had a deep understanding of their applications, most often used in crafting treasures or building the Secret Realm Tower.

She was already profoundly stunned when President Qin told her that Bai Qi applied runes directly to pets, let alone being told today that runes could also enhance pet evolution?

In response to her question, Bai Qi spread his hands wide and said, “I wouldn’t mind, but I don’t have a single skeletal soldier on hand right now.

“That’s easy to fix. Just wait for a moment.”

Just as Bai Qi finished speaking, an array under President Qin’s feet flickered, and he disappeared on the spot. When he reappeared, there were three more skeletal soldiers within the array.

Did he have to act so fast?

Bai Qi couldn’t help but comment as he saw the three skeletal soldiers President Qin had captured with such ease. But faced with the eager looks of President Qin and Professor Dong, Bai Qi obediently carved a rune onto one of the skeletal soldiers, and then let Alpha activate it.

After a brief wait, the skeletal soldier successfully evolved into an Ice Skeleton and joined the training group under Alpha’s suppression.

“It really evolved…”

Professor Dong stood in place, having witnessed the evolution of an Ice Skeleton firsthand, murmuring to herself, while President Qin excitedly looked at Bai Qi, “Does this effect apply to runes of all attributes? If we replace skeletal soldiers with other pets, can they evolve in the same way?” “I’ve only successfully done it with Ice, Shadow, and Fire attributes, I haven’t tried the others yet.”

Bai Qi pointed at the three different evolved types within the training room, “Skeletal soldiers are at such a low level that they can only bear a single rune. Higher-level skeletal creatures should be able to bear more than one. As for flesh-and-blood creatures, I’ve never tried, but it probably won’t work, since they have too many organs and their energy circulation isn’t as stable as skeletal creatures.”

“If I’m not mistaken, the Ice Ghost series from Lamentation Tower and the Hellfire series that followed probably have something to do with runes.”

“But I have no idea how they managed to apply runes to the Soul Race.” After hearing Bai Qi’s explanation, President Qin asked, “Is this what you’ve been researching these past few days?”

“Well, something like that.”

In truth, Bai Qi had figured out everything he said on the first day; he’d spent the following days researching the runes to carve onto Alpha, discarding the successful evolutions for Schuck and Beta to play with.

President Qin pondered for a moment, “Celestial Brilliance is back in Gusu City today. I’ll ask him to come over and take a look.”

“Celestial Brilliance is the Federation’s leading expert on the Undead Department, he might have some unique insights.” The trio continued their lively discussion, while Zhuge Chen, who had been standing behind them the entire time, looked bewildered.

However, he did understand one thing – Bai Qi could evolve ordinary skeletal soldiers.

They even wanted to collaborate with Celestial Brilliance to research more advanced evolution!

“I have to tell father right away, no! I need to get him over here!”

Zhuge Chen sensed a business opportunity and immediately sent a flurry of texts to Zhuge Xu. Then he stuck close to the trio, fearful of missing anything. “Bai Qi, your discovery is unprecedented, and it may even have a significant impact on the current pet system. Are you interested in becoming my student and delving deeper into the application of runes?” As an expert in runes, if Bai Qi were to become her student, he would quickly grasp even more runes, and be able to apply them to pets. Even if they can’t be applied to other types of pets, just the skeletal system alone could branch off into numerous variations.

She was certain that the skeletal system was on the verge of a whole new era! Correspondingly, the status of Gusu City within the Federation would also get a comprehensive boost!

Wasn’t the once unknown city of Langya only now rising due to the discovery of a new breeding method for Web Spiders?

“Um, I don’t think that’s necessary.”

Bai Qi scratched his head awkwardly, “I just lucked out and discovered this, I don’t really have anything profound. I should spare myself the embarrassment. I’ll leave such high-end matters up to you, Professor Dong.”

Bai Qi had initially only completed the task assigned by President Qin and took the opportunity to get some free lab rats. But if he were to dive deeper into this research, he absolutely wouldn’t want to.

After all, there were over a hundred thousand runes, and he did not have the leisure to experiment with each one.

Given that amount of time, he could utilize the Evolution Egg multiple times and achieve many results.

Hearing Bai Qi’s refusal, a hint of regret flashed across Professor Dong’s face, “If that’s the case, I won’t force you. If you have any questions about runes, you can always come to me.”

“Thank you, Professor Dong.”

Bai Qi nodded. Even though he didn’t plan on delving deeper into rune evolution, he still needed to continue studying runes. They were needed for both fighting and exploring the Secret Realm Tower.

“However, it’s a pity to just give up on such a discovery.

Professor Dong paused and turned to President Qin, “What do you think about Bai Qi showcasing this outcome at the opening ceremony?

President Qin nodded, “It’s possible. At that time, I’ll apply for a patent for Bai Qi. It’s sure to have a considerable promotional effect..
