Beastmaster: I Am Invincible If I Can See the Evolutionary Path Chapter 149

Chapter 149 Alchemy and Mechanical Flow? Lots of mysteries!

With a twitch in his head, he said, "Maybe you can take advantage of this time to study the evolution of pet beasts with Professor Qiao Bai or something?"

ˆ˜Qiao Bai: “?”

 What kind of king of scrolls, don't forget to find some work for him at this time, right?

ˈ˜Qiao Bai: Rejected.

 Old Professor Wu's eyes suddenly lit up. Fortunately, Professor Wu still had some sense in him.

"I invited Qiao Bai to study this ancient tomb together. I started a new research topic temporarily... Without any preparation, nothing can be researched, and it will be a waste of time."

 Old Professor Wu shook his head.

 No, no, no.

this is not OK.

  It doesn't matter no matter how excited you are.

Hearing this, Jiang Heng's face showed an expression of hesitation.

She glanced at Qiao Bai, whose expression did not change at all, and then at Professor Wu, who really thought so, and the words of ridicule were on her lips.

But obviously, how could Jiang Heng say it in front of the rightful owner?

“…Okay, Professor Wu, just forget it if you think it's inappropriate.” Jiang Heng sighed helplessly.

“However, there is really no progress in the excavation work of the ancient tomb, and we did not expect that they would arrive so quickly..." At this point, Jiang Heng's voice became smaller and smaller.

Alright alright.

 They should have thought of this in advance.

after all.

Facing an ancient tomb that is likely to tamper with the entire history of beast control from the source, I ask who can resist?

Just look at the completely sold-out tickets to Yangcheng.

 Fortunately, Professor Wu and Qiao Bai are both easy to talk to.

Jiang Heng repeatedly promised that he would contact them as soon as he made progress. Professor Wu, just like when he came, walked slowly towards the return journey with his hands behind his back.

“Then you're busy, let's go first.”

 Speaking, Professor Wu waved his hand.

Qiao Bai glanced at the deep pit being dug, and then withdrew his gaze.

 He followed Professor Wu's footsteps, his heart full of expectations.

just now.

Qiao Bai quietly used his talent skill on the excavated part of the ancient tomb.

 【Eye of Insight】did not see anything.

 The panels locked are all insignificant pet beasts of other beast masters and staff.

　　followed by.

  Qiao Bai used another talent skill that is not commonly used [the power to be given].

 When using it, Qiao Bai didn't have much expectations. There were too many pet beasts nearby, so it was impossible for him to hear anything useful.

However.

 Something unexpected happened.

 As Qiao Bai said, there are many pet beasts around.

The nearest ones are the Dream-Eating Cat and Qianji beside Jiang Heng, the further ones are the three Earth-Drilling Demonic Dragons used to dig the entrance to the ancient tomb, and the pet beasts brought by other staff...

 There are a dozen or so scattered beasts, and the voices of the pet beasts are mixed together and are not so noisy. Most of the pet beasts are still very simple and have a single idea.

 Their voices together are probably like the meowing of kittens and puppies. It is a bit noisy, but tolerable.

 But after using his innate skills, the first thing Qiao Bai noticed was not the chaotic voices of the beasts, but a huge, deafening heartbeat that could overwhelm all other sounds.

boom-

  Bang bang—

ˆBang bang bang—

 One after another.

 Slow down, regular, long-lasting.

 It was as if some ancient behemoth was sleeping beneath this land.

 That is living life.

 Qiao Bai used a strong willpower to control himself from showing any strange expression on the spot.

Who could have thought of that?

 Originally, it was just a casual comment that there might be extraordinary creatures in the ancient tombs below.

 But basically no one believes it.

Even Professor Wu agreed to come because he wanted to see if he could find the corpse of any extraordinary creature in the ancient tomb.

 Let's study the difference between extraordinary creatures two thousand years ago and extraordinary creatures one thousand two hundred years ago and now.

 A living extraordinary creature...that would be a bit scary.

 A life form that can live for two thousand years...

What would that be?

 After walking back a few steps, Professor Wu bumped into Cui Wenzhong who came to see him.

"Teacher." Cui Wenzhong didn't feel any embarrassment when he bumped into Professor Wu. He turned his back on guests and said as if he had just come with Professor Wu: "The excavation work will take a while, and the inspection team that went ahead is not that fast. , I guess we will stay here for ten days and a half."

“You decide whether you want to relax or continue your previous research topic.”

 Professor Wu: “…”

 Professor Wu had a toothache expression on his face.

"Hey... previous research..." said Professor Wu, he glanced at Qiao Bai aside, thought for a while and said with some hesitation in his voice: "Why don't we all take a good rest for the time being..."

“Professor Wu, you don't have to worry about me, it's okay.” Seeing this, Qiao Bai said quickly.

But... "What is your latest research topic?" Qiao Bai looked a little interested and asked curiously.

“I remember that your latest job ended more than a month ago?”

Since he agreed to Professor Wu's invitation, Qiao Bai had already done his homework before coming and learned about Professor Wu's main work this year.

 After ending his cooperation with the official "Extreme" project, Professor Wu took over the work in a designated direction of "researching the evolutionary route of extraordinary creatures with the ability to purify water sources."

 Seeing the requirements of this subject, Qiao Bai had so many questions on his face that he could go out and act as an NPC.

no?

What is the difference between this kind of designated direction project and making a wish?

Party A said that he wanted a colorful black, regardless of whether there is a colorful black in the world.

Party B will have to rack his brains and compare various color pigments to create this colorful black that may not exist.

ˆ˜Qiao Bai: “?”

 I have learned a lot.

 So it can still be like this.

"That project..." Before Professor Wu said anything, Cui Wenzhong pushed up his glasses and clicked his tongue, dissatisfaction in his tone came over him.

ˆ˜Qiao Bai: “…”

 He ​​originally thought that this kind of evolutionary requirement to specify the direction was normal, but from Cui Wenzhong's stunned expression, it seemed that it was not that normal?

“That's right.” Cui Wenzhong glanced at Qiao Bai, who had everything he wanted to say written on his face.

Knowing that Qiao Bai had only been in the industry for a short time and was still a newcomer in the circle, Cui Wenzhong patiently explained to Qiao Bai: "In fact, it is not difficult to simply study the evolutionary path of extraordinary creatures with the ability to purify water. "

“After all, there are some extraordinary creatures with water attributes. They are in water sources and have certain environmental maintenance functions for the waters where they live.”

 The impact of extraordinary power on the ecological environment is in all aspects.

There are good and bad.

 But as long as you look hard and study it, you can still pick out the good parts.

“The waters where these extraordinary creatures, such as anchovies, scavengers, and moss turtles, are cleaner than other ordinary waters, and the extraordinary power emanating from them has a positive impact on the waters.”

“Start from this direction and try a few more times to figure out the evolutionary route in this designated direction.”

“But the question is…what does it mean to not only purify the waters, but also enhance the vitality of the waters so that the number of life forms in the waters can multiply five to ten times?”

 At this point, Cui Wenzhong laughed angrily.

“Do you really think our pet evolution professor is a magic lamp? We can light up any wish you make?”

 Qiao Bai was silent.

ha.

  Sounds a bit outrageous.

 Cui Wenzhong: "Then you haven't heard what's even more outrageous. They want to raise water dragons in this water area."

Qiao Bai silently typed a question mark.

Water dragon?

 Is it the water dragon he was thinking of?

 It does not refer to a dragon species like the Jade Silver Snake, which after evolution has a slight resemblance to a dragon.

Water dragon is an extraordinary creature with dragon attributes. It has the ability to make rain, and its control over water stands at the pinnacle of other extraordinary creatures with water attributes.

but.

It's like saying, "A phoenix cannot live unless it is a phoenix tree, it cannot eat if it is not a bamboo, and it cannot drink if it is not a sweet spring."

Water dragons also have very high requirements for water areas.

 At least in the entire world, only a part of the sea near a certain "Water Dragon Island" in the southeast can meet the daily requirements for water dragons to live and reproduce.

 No water dragons will leave Water Dragon Island until they reach adulthood.

 The number of water dragons that left Water Dragon Island after adulthood can be counted on one hand.

The problem is that water from other places simply cannot meet the water dragon's standards for daily water use.

Qiao Bai shook his head.

sharp.

There is really everyone for everyone these days.

 Raising a water dragon?

 Don't even look at whether you have the ability and strength.

"The most irritating thing is that their outrageous demands were not stated in advance, but were put forward bit by bit during our research." Cui Wenzhong rolled his eyes: "I was like I sensed something was wrong.”

 “Then dig deep inside, okay.” Spreading his hands.

This is definitely a targeted fraud.

Whenever the other party dares to write down the requirement of "purifying the waters to a level acceptable to the water dragons", they will not even look at this project.

“Hey, that's why I prefer to cooperate with the government these years.” Professor Wu also looked a little helpless: “If it doesn't work out, it's better to study some topics that I like.”

  “For example, the topic I have been studying recently.”

 Professor Wu is able to take things up and put them down, and he is very open-minded.

 After a brief conversation, he told Qiao Bai about what he was studying recently, and his eyes lit up.

“I want to start a new series of research projects, specifically studying evolutionary routes that are simple, convenient, and require less resources!”

“Under these conditions, try your best to develop more powerful evolutionary forms of extraordinary creatures!”

Simple.

convenient.

 Less resource requirements.

With these words superimposed together, Qiao Bai instantly understood Professor Wu's real needs—an evolutionary route that would be more convenient to promote to the majority of beast masters.

 It's not that there are many powerful evolutionary routes that are bad, but that the resource requirements are too high.

 A beastmaster with an ordinary background may not be able to obtain a loan, let alone subsequent cultivation and growth in strength.

　　It is never a joke for a beast master to spend all his money to raise a pet beast.

 Because of the support from the state and officials, there have been no big troubles for the time being.

 But at Professor Wu's age, he always worries involuntarily—what if an accident really happens?

 It is better to study in advance and be prepared.

 If there may be hidden dangers, they will find ways to solve the problems as much as possible.

 Senior beast masters are an expression of national strength.

But this does not mean that there is no need for low-level beast masters to exist.

 As the number of low-level beast masters increases, the number of high-level beast masters will increase accordingly.

 This is a necessary process.

Qiao Bai touched his chin.

 Ah... maybe he can help with this?

Think again about the new evolutionary routes of extraordinary creatures that need to be studied in the various progress bars of his talent skills... Well, this might be a very good opportunity!

 Five days.

The whole of Yangcheng has been in a feverish atmosphere for the past five days.

 It's obviously the Chinese New Year.

But the merchants in Yangcheng have no time to rest at all.

 Going out to work after the New Year's Eve.

 The opportunity to pick up money is here!

There are already many tourist attractions in Yangcheng, plus the ancient tombs that are being excavated... Although approaching and taking pictures are not allowed, just taking a look at the progress from a distance will make people exclaim.

very fast.

 After determining the specific location and scope of the ancient tomb, we found that it is a huge underground tomb covering an area of ​​nearly 800 square kilometers, one-fifth of the area of ​​​​Yangcheng.

With the three earth-burrowing dragons digging around the clock in shifts, they finally excavated the entire outline and found the location of the entrance to the ancient tomb.

Excited.

excited.

With all kinds of emotions mixed together, people from all walks of life who had been miserable for five whole days could not wait to enter this ancient tomb.

Then…

　　As expected, accidents happen.

 The entrance to the ancient tomb...ahem, I can't get in.

A whole ten groups of people tried to enter, but how could they walk in through the entrance of the ancient tomb, and how could they be sent out intact half an hour later.

When asked what happened, everyone had a blank look on their faces and had no idea what to do.

do not remember.

Can not remember.

Fainted.

 Just walked out.

 The answer is pretty much the same, in short, they all mean the same thing.

 Jiang Heng: “…”

"There must be a solution." Jiang Heng held his forehead and said helplessly: "I found the entrance but can't get in... Is it possible that it is due to the ability of some extraordinary creatures?"

 The beastmaster's tomb.

Especially for those powerful beast masters, some of them will indeed arrange some strange arrangements.

  But basically they are easy to break.

 It will not cause much trouble to their work in the grave.

 This kind of situation, I don't know what extraordinary creature caused it at all... I have to say, this is the first time I have seen it.

Jiang Heng and Ke Xia, who was forced to come together, looked at each other.

“Let's go in together and try?”

"…OK."

 Try and die.

It turns out that Jiang Heng and Ke Xia were unable to study this strange situation at the entrance and exit.

 Jiang Heng couldn't help but become anxious.

 The ancient tomb is close at hand.

They couldn't even get through the gate.

 Is it true?

 Is it ridiculous to ask?

 “It's useless to be anxious.” Although he doesn't want to work, when he has to work, Ke Xia will still show his due spirit.

 Get rid of the work as soon as possible, and you can return to the status quo of salted fish as soon as possible!

 Everything that hinders him should be eliminated and resolved!

 Just like the setting at this entrance.

After confirming again and again that this was not an effect caused by the skill of an extraordinary creature, everyone began to study it. Finally, after three days and three nights of research, they discovered the clue.

"Mechanical? Or is it alchemy?" Qiao Bai couldn't help but have an expression of doubt and confusion on his face as he listened to Jiang Heng's words.

no?

Aren't they a fantasy channel?

 Why did you travel to the magic channel inexplicably?

 Machines can barely be explained by genres.

 But alchemy... is really a bit outrageous.

"It's not the alchemy you imagined... Well, if you insist on thinking that way, it's not impossible." Jiang Heng wanted to retort, but in the middle of her rebuttal, she held her forehead helplessly.

Professor Wu on the side showed an understanding expression and took the initiative to explain to Qiao Bai.

“Alchemy actually existed a thousand years ago, but due to some special reasons that we cannot explore now, alchemy was lost.”

“And alchemy is not as mysterious as the legend says. There are a few written records and descriptions in some ancient books that can be verified. Alchemy is the equivalent exchange of substances.”

“To me, I think the so-called alchemy is more like the most basic use of matter by ancient humans. Because they don't understand the principles contained in it, they call it alchemy.”

 Jiang Heng has a toothache.

“No, no, no…the alchemy we discovered is really not the same as this alchemy…”

 Professor Wu: “?”

 Old Professor Wu looked at Jiang Heng with surprised eyes: "You don't mean to say that this alchemy is the kind of alchemy that can turn stone into gold and achieve immortality, right?"

 “Do you think I am this kind of person?”

 Jiang Heng's voice was a little weak, but she finally got to the most crucial point: "We suspect that this alchemy is another way to use extraordinary power."

 Professor Wu: “?”

Cui Wenzhong: "?"

ˆ˜Qiao Bai:.

 A little surprised.

 But he didn't seem that surprised.

After hearing the steady and powerful heartbeat coming from the ancient tomb, Qiao Bai had a hunch that this ancient tomb was definitely more exciting than he imagined.

 In every sense of the word.

Qiao Bai originally thought that they would not be shocked until they entered the ancient tomb and saw the living, unknown extraordinary creature.

Unexpectedly, just as soon as I started, I started to feel the shock of two thousand years of time and space.

 Alchemy?

 The legendary alchemy?

 Other ways to use supernatural power?

 Old Professor Wu felt that there was something wrong with his heart.

 “Are you sure?!” Professor Wu asked hurriedly.

"I'm not sure." The expression on Jiang Heng's face was very serious: "This is originally based on our speculation about the special circumstances of the entrance, but if it is really..."

 The sky has changed. The sky has changed.

 The sky is really going to change.

It has only been in the past few years that humans have awakened the ability to control beasts and control extraordinary power, and there has never been a way to apply extraordinary power to external substances.

What exactly is the design of the gate of this ancient tomb?

 Think of this.

 Professor Wu couldn't sit still either. "Is the door open?" Professor Wu asked the question he was most concerned about: "If there is no problem, we should be able to enter!"

Jiang Heng nodded.

 “This is what I came here for today.”

“But the situation inside the ancient tomb is a little more complicated..."

Professor Wu waved his hand: "That's nothing!"

 As long as you can get in.

 It doesn't matter whether it's complicated or not.

 There is no researcher who is not interested in this kind of historical treasure from two thousand years ago.

 “Then let's have a meeting first.”

Jiang Heng said firmly.

 Qiao Bai also participated in this meeting in person, but what specifically happened at the meeting and other processes... Qiao Bai didn't really want to recall it.

So be it.

  In any case, the final result is good for him, Professor Wu, and the professors of pet evolution.

 Let's go to the grave together.

 Everyone was given a backpack prepared in advance.

"There are lights, water, food and other basic living supplies inside, which can ensure a safe life for three days after being dispersed or trapped. If you are a beast master, you can last longer." Jiang Heng looked at the ground. The people who were preparing to enter the ancient tomb together said with serious expressions.

“The entrance to the ancient tomb has been opened normally according to our research, but entering from the same entrance does not mean that we will be transported to the same place.”

“Don't panic or worry if you find that there are no other companions around you after entering.” Jiang Heng explained in detail some situations that they might encounter after their first round of research and exploration.

“Remember the time and study the information, documents and information in the ancient tomb as much as possible while ensuring your own safety.”

 At this point, Jiang Heng paused: "If you think it's dangerous and you're not sure you can handle it, don't try it. Do you understand?"

It's not like Jiang Heng has never thought about kicking out the non-beast masters.

 But after careful consideration, she still didn't do it.

 The danger level of this ancient tomb is still within a controllable range.

The maze at the door was very gentle and did not pose any threat or harm to their lives and bodies. Whether they were beast masters or ordinary people, they were all safely sent out even if they could not enter. .

 In this case.

 Let ordinary people and beastmasters go down and try it together.

With more people and more power, we might be able to find some useful clues.

It is not that no one has an opinion on Jiang Heng's decision, but these non-beast masters who are willing to go to the grave are willing to bear the possible consequences.

 Compared with the dangers that may or may not exist, they are still more interested in the tomb itself.

 This is first-hand information!

No one can stop their contact!

 Qiao Bai and Cui Wenzhong walked side by side beside Professor Wu: "Professor Wu, be careful when you go in."

"Teacher, you'd better not go. If something happens to you accidentally..." Cui Wenzhong also looked at Professor Wu with a worried look, as if he wanted to persuade Professor Wu to come down.

"I know, but this is most likely the tomb of a beast master from two thousand years ago. There may be many unknown extraordinary biological documents or related information in it. If you can't see it with your own eyes..." Professor Wu pursed his lips as he spoke. He will definitely regret it!

 It's dangerous.

 He also considered it.

 In the absence of extraordinary creatures, as long as you can meet up with a large army or meet one or two people, the danger level should not be as high as imagined.

Cui Wenzhong let out a long sigh.

 He knew he couldn't persuade the teacher, but he just wanted to give it a try!

 It's no use... Cui Wenzhong cast his expectant eyes on Qiao Bai beside him.

 That is to say, is it possible to count on Qiao Bai?

Qiao Bai nodded: "If we can meet him."

 He will definitely protect Professor Wu.

Cui Wenzhong did not relax at all because of Qiao Bai's approval.

　　Random teleportation... Cui Wenzhong's brows wrinkled again when he thought about it.

 It's because of this, otherwise he wouldn't have so many things to think about!

"arrive."

Just when Cui Wenzhong was thinking about something, they had already arrived at the door of the ancient tomb.

 It is not as grand a scene as imagined.

It is a hole that can accommodate one person through. When you get closer, it is pitch black inside.

 “Come in together?” Cui Wenzhong looked at Qiao Bai, then looked at the teacher beside him and said.

Jiang Heng, who was not far away, heard Cui Wenzhong's words. She turned around and glanced at them: "It doesn't matter whether you enter together or one by one. The teleportation is random, and you will not be teleported to the same place just because you entered together."

Jiang Heng said hesitantly: "Not necessarily? You can try again."

Whether it's a psychological effect or something else, you can give it a try.

Cui Wenzhong nodded and stood beside Professor Wu without hesitation. Qiao Bai did not resist and followed the trend.

Most people walked in in groups of three or five.

Take two steps forward and their figures are no longer visible.

 Soon all the few people had entered the cave, leaving only Qiao Bai and Professor Wu.

 “Let's go too.”

 The three of them stepped forward together, Cui Wenzhong holding Professor Wu's hand tightly with both hands.

Professor Wu had already rolled his eyes at him several times in disgust, but Cui Wenzhong remained indifferent.

 Turn it over, turn it over, turn it over as you like.

 Teacher's safety is the most important thing.

Qiao Bai looked at it with the corners of his mouth raised.

 This master-disciple combination, both of whom are quite old, is really interesting.

Qiao Bai took the lead and entered the cave at the front.

 One step.

 Two steps.

 It is completely dark.

  Qiao Bai did not take out the flashlight.

 Three steps.

 Four steps.

Continue to go.

 Five steps...the darkness in front of his eyes disappeared, and for a moment Qiao Bai seemed to see golden stars flashing through the black space.

 Qiao Bai didn't wait to decide whether this was his fantasy or reality.

 The next second.

 The body is in the air.

 My feet are already standing in another space.

Qiao Bai stood firm and opened his eyes, and was surprised to find - huh?

 The surrounding environment is not as dark as imagined?

 The weak light is like a firefly in the dark night, with stars scattered but not bright enough.

  But after the eyes adapt to the surrounding environment, they can barely see the surrounding situation clearly.

Then Qiao Bai was surprised but not too surprised to find out.

 The place he was in did not look like an ancient tomb from more than two thousand years ago.

 There is no one else around.

Professor Wu and Cui Wenzhong did not teleport with him, and the others did not know where they were. Qiao Bai tightened his backpack tightly. The supplies inside were one of the sources of confidence for him to explore here.

Qiao Bai did not rush to start his exploration, but released a few little guys.

  Xiaowu.

  Cat Cat Bug.

 Little white snake.

 Small jellyfish.

The moment Xiao Wu fluttered his wings and flew out, Qiao Bai seemed to hear the "thumping" sound of his heart beating again, which seemed to become even more rapid.

Little Wu's gold-red eyes are particularly bright even in dim places.

"Chiji?" Maomaochong stood on Qiao Bai's shoulder, looked left and right, and asked in question, "Where is this place?"

It feels weird!

The little white snake also wrapped around Qiao Bai a little tighter, as if it was frightened.

 Only Xiaowu and Little Jellyfish, the two little guys didn't feel anything at all.

 Qiao Bai had a reasonable suspicion that Xiao Wu didn't feel anything because the three-legged Golden Crow blood gradually awakened in his body, making Xiao Wu fearless.

As for the little jellyfish...it may be because their nerves are big enough, so they don't feel anything either.

 Little jellyfish: "?"

The little jellyfish, which was suspected by Qiao Bai of being nervous and therefore not afraid, tilted its head and expressed its doubts to Qiao Bai with its movements.

“Ahem.” Qiao Bai put a fist against his lips with one hand, coughed twice, and decisively changed the subject: “Everyone, please don't run around. This is an… not very safe place.”

 Looking at the subconsciously frightened behavior of Maomao Chong and Little White Snake, Qiao Bai felt that.

If they were not intimidated by the atmosphere in the ancient tomb.

 It could only be that he was frightened by that extraordinary creature who didn't know where he was, but Qiao Bai could always hear his heartbeat.

Through so far, cats and little white snakes are scared ... Qiao Bai maintains doubts about the safety of this ancient tomb.

  He touched the heads of Cat, Cat, Bug and Little White Snake, and simply calmed their emotions.

 The tense situation of Maomaochang and Little White Snake soon relaxed.

 The two little guys were mainly frightened suddenly.

 After calming down, the little white snake didn't dare to move much, but the cat and cat bug had returned to its original appearance of jumping up and down.

  Looks like he wants to flex his muscles in this strange place and show off his strength.

 Mao Mao Chong: "Chi Chi!"

 Ben Long was just scared!

 Look at this dragon coming to clear the way now!

 This dragon is fearless!

 Mao Maochong looked full of energy and wanted to avenge his shame.

 The backhand was suppressed by Qiao Bai.

"good."

Qiao Bai pressed Maomao Chong's head with one hand, and touched the well-behaved Xiaowu with the other hand.

"Stay by my side obediently at this time, and don't always think about causing trouble, otherwise I will lock you in a small dark room." Qiao Bai smiled softly, but there was a threat behind his words... Maomao Chong understands Now, Maomao Chong knew that Qiao Bai's attitude was really serious this time.

 Mao Mao Chong finally behaved himself.

Quietly.

 Not noisy or noisy.

 Cat Cat Bug: Give up.jpg

Little White Snake opened a pair of beautiful golden eyes and stared curiously in the direction of the cat and insect.

  Cat Cat Bug: “…”

 Turn your head.

　　Pretending not to see anything.

As long as the dragon doesn't see it, it doesn't count as embarrassing in front of my little brother!

ˆ˜Qiao Bai: “…”

 As long as you are happy.

 Qiao Bai waved to the little jellyfish, and the little jellyfish shrank and retracted obediently, floating next to Qiao Bai's ear. At first glance, it looked like a decorative pendant.

 It's pretty good-looking.

Xiaowu followed Qiao Bai warily, and Qiao Bai finally started wandering around in the space where he was.

Why did I say before that this doesn't look like an ancient tomb from two thousand years ago... Because the building materials at Qiao Bai's feet and around him are not bricks, tiles, gold and jade, which are more in line with the times, but a light reddish brown color. It looks like it was fired.

 But if you really step on it, you will find that it is a hard, steel-like material.

ˆ˜Qiao Bai: “?”

 Did people two thousand years ago have such a powerful method of refining steel?

Or does it mean that with extraordinary power, one can really do anything?

Qiao Bai was shocked.

 Qiao Bai wandered around in this space.

He also saw several huge ones that covered a wide area. At first glance, it was unclear what their function was, but after careful identification, they looked a bit like modern scientific instruments.

It's just that most of the circuit structures are mechanical.

Qiao Bai circled several times around the machine in the middle, which was also the largest and had the most mechanical parts and structures.

 The expression on his face became more and more shocked and unbelievable.

 “This is really…” It's unbelievable.

Although two thousand years have passed, these machines are all broken inside and out, unable to be used, and their true functions are unknown.

But based on the delicate and complex structure of the parts, Qiao Bai could imagine how spectacular it would be to use these machines when they were still good.

 The flavor of steampunk is instantly there.

“These locations should be where some energy is stored, right?” Qiao Bai walked around a few more times, nodded thoughtfully and said.

On this huge machine, there are five blank spaces that are very abrupt.

 There is no structure inside.

 But looking at its specific appearance, it doesn't seem like the corrosion of time has worn away the parts that should have been there.

Then there is only one possibility - the starting energy of this machine is a very magical energy.

 Just like...the energy crystals in the bodies of extraordinary creatures?

Qiao Bai thought uncertainly.

 He took out five energy crystals and placed them where he thought the energy source was.

 Waiting quietly.

One minute.

 Two minutes.

five minutes.

Qiao Bai sighed.

“Hey, it's not as simple as imagined. The attempt failed.”

Energy crystals cannot provide energy to this huge, towering machine, nor can they restart this machine that has been on strike for two thousand years.

Qiao Bai shook his head and put away the energy crystals he took out.

 “Jiji!”

Mao Maochong looked at the energy crystals in Qiao Bai's hand and showed a coveted expression.

 Qiao Bai: "...It seems that whenever I starve you, I never see you not hungry for anything."

Reluctantly, he clicked twice on Mao Mao Chong's forehead. Qiao Bai still fed two of the energy crystals suitable for Mao Mao Chong's attributes to Mao Mao Chong. The other pieces were also given to Xiaowu and Xiao Wu respectively. White Snake, the last little jellyfish…

"This is a water-based energy crystal. You should be able to absorb it. Try it." Qiao Bai held up a water-blue crystal and said to the little jellyfish uncertainly.

 Theoretically it should be possible.

 But isn't the situation of small jellyfish quite special?

 The little jellyfish doesn't care either.

food?

　　Taste it.

The little jellyfish opened the jellyfish cover and swallowed the energy crystal in Qiao Bai's hand in one gulp.

Chunch, chew, chew—chew, chew—the little jellyfish tilted its head, and it suddenly raised two tentacles in the direction of the void—Zi la!

 A jet of water as thick as a wrist spurted out.

Then.

The water miraculously disappeared into the void.

ˆ˜Qiao Bai: “?”

 Xiaowu: “!”

Mao Maochong and Little White Snake tilted their heads stupidly, as if they didn't realize what happened.

On the contrary, the little jellyfish that sprayed water shrank and returned to Qiao Bai calmly as if nothing had happened, waving its eight tentacles happily towards Qiao Bai.

eat!

 The little jellyfish accurately conveys this meaning.

Qiao Bai: "...No more, I just saved a few pieces."

 “There is plenty of other things to eat.”

  After all, the card pool can only store the things drawn. These energy stones were all brought in by Qiao Bai himself.

　　　There are really not many.

 Fortunately, little jellyfish are not picky about their food, as long as they can eat anything!

The little jellyfish happily waved its tentacles and feasted.

  Qiao Bai and Xiao Wu were very concerned about the disappearance of the water column just now.

It's definitely not possible to let the little jellyfish do it again. Qiao Bai turned his attention to the little white snake: "Try, spray some water?"

Qiao Bai said in an uncertain tone.

He didn't know whether the situation just now was because the little jellyfish was special. It was obvious that the little jellyfish didn't have water-attribute skills.

 It is also because of the special situation of this ancient tomb.

 Fortunately, Qiao Bai also has a pet beast that can spray water. You will know after giving it a try.

　　　Little White Snake looked a little hesitant.

Different from Xiao Wu who is not afraid at all, silly and bold little jellyfish, face is more important than fear, so Cat Cat Bug has recovered.

The little white snake was still trembling, tightly wrapped around Qiao Bai's arm and neck.

 It seems that he can draw a sense of security from Qiao Bai in this way.

Looking at the little white snake's appearance, Qiao Bai couldn't say anything else.

I can only touch the little white snake's head, put this idea aside for now, and study it carefully later when I have the opportunity.

This room has been walked around once.

 Qiao Bai took out his mobile phone and took hundreds of photos of the mechanical equipment in the room, capturing every detail and even recording a video.

Twenty minutes have passed since this set of procedures was completed.

Qiao Bai put away his cell phone.

 He walked toward the outside.

Then, Qiao Bai looked at the dozen or so intersections at the door, with a confused expression on his face.

no?

 What kind of ancient tomb maze is this?

 There is no fatal mechanism, but there is a fatal maze, right?

 Qiao Bai was not in a hurry.

 He closed his eyes and listened.

ˆBang—bang bang—

The heartbeat continues, beating slowly.

Qiao Bai wandered around several intersections.

 This won't work, it's a bit far.

This one seems closer, but the heartbeat sound next to it is even closer.

Qiao Bai's footsteps moved little by little. Among several very close intersections, Qiao Bai closed his eyes and chose the direction with the loudest heartbeat and stepped into this intersection.
