Thinking that he would have to spend time learning such complex runes made Bai Qi’s head spin in frustration.
But faced with Professor Dong’s kindly demeanor, Bai Qi felt too embarrassed
to refuse.
Well, learning one thing was the same as learning two. At worst, he’d have to spend his meditation time studying runes.
After all, both methods were meant to increase spirit power, so the way didn’t really matter.
“Alright, I have a couple of research topics to investigate, so I won’t keep you any longer. If you have any questions, feel free to come see me anytime.” Professor Dong gave a gentle smile, saying, “Bai Qi, there’s no need to rush.
After all, you have the same talent as Luo Xiang. Runes are merely a
supplement.”
“Alright, thankyou, Professor Dong.”
Bai Qi nodded and carefully stored the dictionary.
“Well, Professor Dong, we’ll be on our way now. We’ll visit again when we get
the chance.”
“Go handle your business. Your willingness is enough.”
Professor Dong smiled and then returned to his pile of books, continuing to pore over them.
The two carefully left Professor Dong’s office, not releasing their breaths until
they had walked a good distance away.
“Alright, now you have your book, and it’s time to work hard.
Luo Xiang patted Bai Qi’s shoulder, gave him a thumbs up, and said, “Young
man, I’ve got my eye on you.”
Bai Qi chuckled, saying, “Are you sure I will still be alive by the time I finish
this book?”
Luo Xiang shrugged, saying, “That’s not my problem. Besides, if you want to conquer the Lamentation Tower, it’s best that you diligently study these runes.”
Insider information?1.
Bai Qi perked up his ears and quickly leaned in towards Luo Xiang, saying, “Does team leader Luo have any advice?”
“Combination-type secret realms aren’t common, but they are invariably ancient. I’ve seen the images you replicated. You may need to utilize knowledge of runes later.”
If that was true, then he had better take his studies seriously.
Not until Bai Qi took the matter seriously did Luo Xiang nod his head in satisfaction, “Runic civilization isn’t as simple as you think, so practice hard.” “I have a suggestion: focus on runes related to the Undead Department first. Having said this, a golden rune appeared under Luo Xiang’s feet. A giant owl sprung from it, carrying Luo Xiang on its back.
“I have other tasks to attend to. I’ll be off now. The next time I hear news of you, I hope it’s that you’ve cracked the Lamentation Tower.” Luo Xiang waved at Bai Qi and then vanished into the sky on his owl.
Another Sunrise Level Beast Master.
Given Luo Xiang’s age, he was probably in his twenties.
Those who came from the Special Training Program were truly exceptional.
Bai Qi tightened his grip on the heavy book in his hand and then hurried toward the school gate with a serious look.
It was getting dark. He wondered how late he would have to stay before being able to go home.
How he wished he had a flying pet beast under his command.
Bai Qi’s home.
There was chaos everywhere.
Husky, who had just awoken from the Evolution Egg, saw the empty house and his long dormant dismantling instinct was revived.
Woof-
(Finally, it’s my time to shine!)
Husky quickly ran to a corner, pulled off the canvas there, and exposed the Steel Training Dummy, which he had thoroughly disassembled. Various tools appeared as he started assembling it with gusto.
Maybe it was due to exposure or the aid of his smart brain, but Husky began to piece the training dummy back together, bit by bit.
Finally, under the cover of darkness, a remodeled Steel Training Dummy was completed by Husky’s hand. The design was a bit bizarre, to say the least.
It would be better to call this a Frankenstein dummy than a Steel Training Dummy.
However, Husky was quite pleased with himself.
Woof!
(I finished!)
Husky appraised his maiden work up and down, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he was. He then wheeled the Steel Training Dummy into the courtyard and expertly switched on the power.
ZZZap, ZZZap.
The instant the power was switched on, the Steel Training Dummy was engulfed in a current. Husky realized there was a problem and quietly moved away.
Boom!
Finally, the Steel Training Dummy couldn’t handle the pressure and blew up. The scattered parts flew everywhere, and one of them almost injured Bai Qi, who had just arrived home.
“What… What happened here?”
Bai Qi looked at his courtyard, which seemed to have just been attacked, with a dumbfounded look on his face.
Did I forget to turn off the gas when I left the house? No, that can’t be it. There was enough dust in their kitchen to bake a cake, there couldn’t possibly have been a gas explosion.
After searching around for a bit, Bai Qi finally spotted Husky trying to sneak away in a corner, and he felt his veins bulge in anger.
Woof!
(Oh no, I’ve been discovered!)
Husky reluctantly turned around, and upon seeing Bai Qi’s furious expression, he shivered all over, forcing out an innocent smile.
“Human, would you believe me if I said the Steel Training Dummy started it?
Huh?
Following Husky’s gaze, when Bai Qi saw the Steel Training Dummy which was clearly reconstructed and then blown to pieces again, a flash of surprise crossed his eyes.
Did this idiot do it?
Apparently sensing Bai Qi’s change in attitude, Husky immediately tried to move forward and act cute. But before he could get close, a strong current electrocuted him again.
Woof-
(This is an unavenged grievance, this is not what a dog should endure!) Bai Qi summoned Alpha, extinguishing all the scattered flames in the courtyard, made some explanations to the inquiring neighbors, and then returned home.
As expected, leaving this dangerous critter alone at home was the biggest mistake he had ever made.
However, managing to reassemble a Steel Training Dummy that was nearly completely dismantled and successfully installing a robotic brain was much better than he had expected.
It seemed worthwhile to cultivate this aspect more.
Bai Qi glanced at Husky with some interest and directly gave it a kick.
“Stop pretending, dummy. This electricity doesn’t affect you.”
Woof?!
(Human, how did you see through my superb acting skills!)
Husky looked at Bai Qi with surprise, but before long he was back to jumping and bouncing around.
The ‘expert level’ current resistance was not a joke. This amount of electricity could only temporarily restrict its movements.
“Come with me.”
Bai Qi led Husky back to the workshop, quickly drawing a simple blueprint and placing it in front of Husky, asking, “Can you make this exactly hke the blueprint?”
Woof?
(Human, are you crazy? I’m just a dog!)
Seeing Husky’s disdainful expression, Bai Qi felt a bit stupid and couldn’t help but slap himself a few times. However, after seeing the Steel Training Dummy outside, he suddenly had an idea and assembled a Spider Web Ball in front of Husky.
“Can you do this?”
Husky nodded his head upon seeing this. Various tools once again emerged from his half-metal body, and he actually assembled a Spider Web Ball! This creature was practically half a Mechanical Pet Beast!
Bai Qi’s eyes burned even brighter as he looked at Husky. Just as he was about to give Husky a thorough compliment, the Spider Web Ball in his hand suddenly heated up. Instinctively, Bai Qi threw the SpiderWeb Ball away.
Boom!
The moment Bai Qi threw the Spider Web Ball, Husky’s imitation exploded. Fortunately, the Spider Web Ball wasn’t large, so it didn’t have much destructive power.
Woof! Woof, woof!
(Is this, is this what humans call ‘art’!)
Husky’s eyes were gleaming with excitement, as if he had already seen the direction of his future!
