Chapter 106: Chapter 105: The Sorrow of Beta
Translator: 549690339
Bai Qi leaned in for a closer look, scanning up and down until he quickly identified the identity of this blob of jelly.
A Slime Monster?
Isn’t this thing usually used for garbage disposal year-round? How did it get into the energy system?
Before Bai Qi could figure out the reason, Beta suddenly looked horrified and threw the Slime Monster straight out.
Woof! Woof!
(Human, this thing is absorbing my energy!)
Bai Qi raised an eyebrow at this, giving Alpha a look. Alpha immediately understood what he meant. Six small ice crystal barriers immediately formed in the air, turning into an Ice Crystal Box that enclosed the Slime Monster.
Walking to the ice box, Bai Qi saw a red energy slowly flowing inside the green body of the Slime Monster, it was indeed Beta’s Blast Power.
Well, other Slime Monsters may just feed on some metal products, but this thing even swallowed the Blast Power.
Speaking of which, was the Catastrophe System compromised because of this thing?
A Slime Monster with the same status in the Alien Series as Alpha used to have?
Buzz buzz!
Just then, the Evolution Egg started to shake violently, sending out a wave of long-absent fluctuations.
Was this Slime Monster a mutant species?!
Bai Qi’s eyes lit up immediately, intending to let Alpha release it so he could study this little guy properly. However, the Blast Power in the Slime Monster suddenly surged and blew the Slime Monster into countless pieces.
Looking at the remnants of the Slime Monster’s body, which had completely dyed the whole Ice Crystal Box green, Bai Qi felt a bit perplexed.
This mutant species didn’t even get warm, no wrong, it was gone before it even got warm?
Thinking of the fact that he had just missed out on such good progress, Bai Qi glared at Beta, who looked completely innocent.
Awu?
(It attacked me by itself, are you blaming me?)
Just as Bai Qi was about to give this dumb dog a good lesson, a strange sound came from inside the ice box. The green liquid slowly gathered together and once again formed into the shape of a Slime Monster.
However, compared to its previous green appearance, there were now some red lines on its body.
Kapok kapok.
The Slime Monster seemed to have developed a strong interest in Beta, two watery eyes popped out of its fluid body, staring firmly in Beta’s direction.
It was unscathed even after being blown up from the inside by the Blast Power, was this little guy still a Slime Monster?
“Alpha, let it out.”
Bai Qi gestured to Alpha to release it. Once the Slime Monster regained its freedom, it immediately hopped over to the husky.
Awu?
Beta was about to run away at the sight, a Slime Monster that couldn’t explode was not a good piece of art.
“Beta, don’t move. Let it absorb!”
Seeing Beta trying to escape, Bai Qi immediately forbade Beta from moving. Beta was reluctant, but it had no choice but to give up resistance under the watchful eyes of the sneaky Schuck.
Soon, the Slime Monster reached Beta’s body. After circling around Beta, it seemed to be looking for something.
Bai Qi understood immediately and said, “Beta, release a bit of your Blast Power and see.”
Helplessly sighing, Beta condensed a small strand of Blast Power at its paw.
Kapok kapok!
Seeing this, the Slime Monster immediately followed Beta’s body to its paw and carefully wrapped up the Blast Power.
As expected, the strand of Blast Power was absorbed into the Slime Monster’s body after being wrapped up by the Slime Monster, and resulted in a series of subtle explosions in its body.
This time, the body of the Slime Monster didn’t blow up into pieces, it just swelled slightly and returned to its original state.
This little guy, he took a good beating!
Bai Qi was getting more and more interested in this Slime Monster as he placed his hand on it.
[Name]: Slime Monster
[Nature]: Alien Series (PhysicalMutations)
[Level]: Zero Stage Nine Level
[Bloodline Level]: High-grade Servants
[Racial Skills]: Energy Absorption, Mimicry, Corrosion, Toxin Resistance, Blazing Resistance, Radiation Resistance, Current Resistance…
[Energy Value]: 2400
[Condition]: Evolvable
It is indeed a mutant species!
Looking at the ‘Physical Mutations’ behind the properties of the Slime Monster, Bai Qi couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
This time, not only did I get a free Catastrophe System, I also got a mutant species. Wu Yi really is a benefactor!
Xia Xuan’s status is reduced by one…
“But what’s with this little guy’s abnormal energy level and all those resistances…”
Seeing the long list of resistance skills behind the Slime Monster, Bai Qi suddenly realized why this creature could survive inside the Catastrophe System.
“The Blazing Resistance, was it generated because it absorbed the Blast Power?”
Bai Qi looked at the Slime Monster, which was anxiously circling around Beta because it couldn’t absorb the Blast Power, and then at Beta, who had a miserable expression on his face. A strange smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
“Beta, you’ll be taking care of this little guy from now on!”
Woof!
(Human, are you sure you’re speaking human language!)
The Husky glared fiercely, wishing it could tear open Bai Qi’s brain to see what he was really thinking. On the other hand, the Slime Monster seemed to understand Bai Qi’s words. It jumped onto Beta’s head with a slither, curiously looking at Bai Qi.
Bai Qi grew more satisfied seeing the Slime Monster’s level of intelligence. He said, “Little guy, would you like to stay here with me? Three meals a day, guaranteed!”
Ka-plop, ka-plop.
The Slime Monster paused for a moment, then, mimicking Bai Qi, it formed a hand and waved it at him.
“Is that… five meals a day?”
Ka-plop, ka-plop.
The Slime Monster withdrew its hand and then stuck back onto Beta’s head, not moving anymore.
Alien Series, like the Undead Department, does not have the concept of sleep, but they still need rest.
The Slime Monster seemed to have eaten its fill.
“I didn’t expect this Slime Monster was a glutton. It’s easy to coax.”
Seeing the Slime Monster acting like it wanted to stay on Beta, Bai Qi couldn’t help but laugh. Beta, on the other hand, looked miserable as it tried unsuccessfully to shake off the Slime Monster.
“Leave it. It’s good this way.”
Bai Qi glimpsed at the striking green on Husky’s head and held back his laughter, “The color suits you. Don’t take it off.”
With this explosion-proof, energy-absorbing Slime Monster around, he didn’t have to worry about being blown up by Beta’s art someday.
Upon hearing those words, Beta immediately glared at Bai Qi, wanting to fight him. But after seeing the restless Alpha behind Bai Qi, it gave up.
A dog takes its revenge, not even ten years too late.
Once this dog had honed its skill, it would surely give this rotten bone a good beating!
“Schuck, check the Catastrophe System again to see if there’s any problem.”
Schuck nodded and restarted the Catastrophe System. The previously calm Slime Monster, smelling a familiar scent, immediately woke up.
Ka-plop, ka-plop.
Seeing the familiar food in front of it, the Slime Monster instinctively wanted to leave Beta’s head and return to the Catastrophe System. Beta looked relieved.
With this thing with him, how could this dog properly research art!
However, the Slime Monster seemed unable to resist the allure of Blast Power. After wavering for a while, it returned to Beta’s head.
Awooo!!!
(This dog’s artistic life… is over…)
Beta howled to the sky in sorrow, but it was immediately electrocuted into unconsciousness by Schuck halfway through its howl.
The power of the Thunder Stone also caught the Slime Monster’s attention, but it seemed to only be able to absorb power that was released out. After circling around Schuck’s mechanical body for a while, it gave up.
“The Catastrophe System is working perfectly fine. It was just the Slime Monster disturbing the energy flow, causing the Catastrophe System to malfunction,”
Schuck looked at the Slime Monster on Beta’s head, “Being able to withstand the power of the Catastrophe System and resist Blast Power, I’d recommend the Beast Master consider it as the third pet.”
A contract with the Slime Monster?
Bai Qi was torn.
Mutant species are met by chance, not sought. This Slime Monster indeed had value for contract.
But the pet he wanted for the third contract was a Flying System pet!
Star Mechanics Academy.
As the summer vacation started, all students left the campus to enjoy their fun- filled holidays.
However, the academy was not deserted. Instead, it was bustling with people coming and going.
“As expected, my decision to come to the urban area was right!”
Lu Yuan passed through the crowded people, looking at the new teaching building and the huge plaque in front of him with a satisfied smile.
“Star Mechanics Academy Undead Department”
When he first heard that Celestial Brilliance would settle in Gusu City, he speculated and specifically headed for the competitive urban area to learn, hoping to catch the first wave of undead craze.
But then, several issues arose in Gusu City. He never heard more news about the establishment of the Undead Department and gradually gave up.
However, just when the thought was fading away, the academy abruptly announced the opening of the Undead Department and invited Celestial Brilliance to be the honorary dean.
The moment this news came out, countless young Undead Department Beastmasters across the Federation rushed to Gusu City Star Mechanics Academy to apply. Everyone hoped to be taught by Celestial Brilliance.
Without Gusu City’s favoritism towards local students, Lu Yuan seriously doubted whether he could get in.
Lu Yuan was about to complete the registration as soon as possible and find a good spot in the conference hall when he noticed Bai Qi squeezing through the crowd from afar.
“What’s that guy doing here in the Undead Department?”
Lu Yuan was puzzled. He stepped forward, and Bai Qi also noticed him, “Lu Yuan, you’re here too?”
“That question should be mine.”
Lu Yuan pointed speechlessly at the nearby Undead Department building, “Of course, I’m here to enroll in the Undead Department. What else could I be doing?”
“Oh, I see.”
Bai Qi realized, “I was wondering why there were so many people today. So the enrollment has started, huh?”
Seeing Bai Qi’s palpably out-of-touch expression, Lu Yuan mentally shook his head.
You are a student of Star Mechanics Academy after all; you could at least show some interest in your own academy.
Lu Yuan sighed, “I heard that a new evolution method of Undead Department will be announced in the opening ceremony. Your main pet is an undead. Maybe you’d like to listen too, it might be helpful.”
“Oh, okay, thanks.”
Bai Qi nodded at Lu Yuan’s words. He had always seen Lu Yuan as a quiet person and was surprised at his helpfulness.
Only, what would happen when Lu Yuan finds out that the new evolution method was developed by him? Would he come after Bai Qi?
