Chapter 19: Heading to Yun Lan City
Chapter 19: Heading to Yun Lan City
Gaining insight into the specific evolution details from Koi to Green Scaled Dragon, Li Qian felt elated. His thoughts were in a whirlwind until he finally fell asleep around midnight.
The next day, Saturday, Li Qian wasn't too concerned during the daytime. However, before his parents left for work in the morning, they specifically reminded him to be cautious when going out.
After having the breakfast his mother prepared, around 9 a.m., Li Qian left home and headed straight to the artificial waterfall at the West Suburb Hydroelectric Station.
Soon after, he arrived at the location of the artificial waterfall.
After spending over a month together, both Ah Fu and Qizi had developed an incredible bond with Li Qian.
Even when Li Qian reached the water reservoir, there was not a ripple on the surface, as if it were just an ordinary pond.
Only after Li Qian clapped his hands three times did two fish heads emerge from the bottom.
This was the signal they had agreed upon—Ah Fu and Qizi.
Although the two fish were not lacking in intelligence, they were still just two carp. Even with such a simple signal, it took them half a day to train before they could respond.
Although it was a bit troublesome, Li Qian felt it was all worth it.
Both Qizi and Ah Fu were exceptional among their kind, but they were still just two low-level companion beasts, only mastering the skills of climbing waterfalls and fish leaping. Calling them 'trash' wouldn't be an exaggeration.
If they were discovered, who knows what kind of trouble they might get into. So, a necessary sense of caution was essential.
Not to mention Ah Fu, whom Li Qian had spent years with, even Qizi, after a month of training, had developed a good emotional foundation.
If something were to happen to them, Li Qian would undoubtedly be heartbroken.
"Ah Fu, your task for today is to continue training your waterfall-climbing skill and strive to reach the Perfect level," Li Qian said, looking at Ah Fu and giving his instructions.
Indeed, just three days ago, Ah Fu's waterfall-climbing skill had advanced to the Mastery level.
Just one level away from reaching the Perfect level.
After training for over a month, Ah Fu had developed a conditioned response to this command, and he quickly understood Li Qian's intention.
Ah Fu transformed into a water line and rushed towards the waterfall.
"Next is you, Qizi."
Seeing Ah Fu execute Li Qian's command without hesitation, Li Qian nodded in satisfaction and then turned his attention to Qizi, "Today, you need to learn to use the fish-leaping skill to leap into the air and then connect with the wind chime fruit."
This was an essential training before the evolution.
The wind chime fruit was precious to Li Qian, worth 500,000 Federation Credits each. If he failed to catch it during the evolution, it would be a significant loss.
Li Qian had almost emptied his savings to purchase the wind chime fruit, so he couldn't afford to be careless.
Fortunately, training this ability wasn't difficult, and after some effort, Li Qian ensured that Qizi could catch the fruit.
In this way, half a day passed in the blink of an eye, and in just half a day, Qizi had already grasped this ability, not to the point of perfection, but close enough.
By the time it was almost dinner, it could be said that there was no chance of failure.
That night, Li Qian didn't keep Ah Fu and Qizi in the water reservoir, but instead, he took them back home, placing them in his Beast Ball.
Ah Fu returned to the aquarium he hadn't seen in over a month, happily swimming around a few laps, seeming a bit excited.
As for Qizi, Li Qian planned to contract with him.
Qizi had met all the requirements for evolution in every aspect, and this was the perfect time for the contract.
When Qizi evolved into a Green Scaled Dragon, his level would undoubtedly increase significantly, and at that time, due to the contract feedback, Li Qian's psychic energy would also surge.
As for Ah Fu, it would depend on the situation. If he could wait, when the second evolution task for carp reached 91%, Li Qian would directly use achievement points to complete the task.
At that time, Ah Fu would directly evolve into the second evolution form of carp. If he couldn't wait, then he could only evolve into a Green Scaled Dragon.
However, Li Qian couldn't contract two Green Scaled Dragons, so at that time, he could only let his father or mother contract with Ah Fu.
And Li Qian's "couldn't wait" didn't just refer to the concept of time, let's go and contract with Qizi.
"I'm heading to the neighboring Yun Lan City." Li Qian didn't hesitate and spoke honestly, "Before, didn't I tell you that I've been working hard, aiming to become an excellent Breeder? Recently, I've had some ideas that I want to put into practice, but there's no suitable place in Lingwater City, so I have to go to Yun Lan City."
"Is that so..." Father Li Chengyang mulled over his words and then turned to Li Qian, "Do you need me to accompany you?"
"No need, Dad, Mom. I'm already an adult, and I can go out on my own without any problems," Li Qian shook his head, "Moreover, the place I'm going to isn't far. It's only about two hours by train."
To ease their worries, Li Qian added, "Plus, Yun Lan City is much bigger than Lingwater City, so the public security should be at least as good."
Seeing Li Qian's determination, his parents didn't stop him.
Of course, the main consideration was that their child was already grown up, and it was inevitable that he would go out on his own.
Not to mention the distant future, but soon, he would have to live outside for Beastmaster High School.
Now, having the opportunity to practice in advance was a good thing.
After bringing up the matter with his parents and gaining their approval, Li Qian returned to his room and packed the things he had prepared into a backpack.
"Dad, Mom, I'm leaving." With his backpack on, Li Qian bid farewell to his parents and left home.
Just as he reached the entrance of the apartment building, his phone suddenly rang.
Li Qian took out his phone and checked it, then couldn't help but mutter, "It's An Paozi calling at this time, what could he want?"
Without hesitation, he pressed the answer button and continued walking towards the community gate, "Hello, An Paozi, what's up? I was just about to leave."
Three minutes later, Li Qian arrived at the community gate and spotted An Paozi's trace. There was no way to ignore his flashy red sports car; it was too eye-catching to ignore.
"An Paozi, it's the weekend, no time for meditation. What's up? Why are you looking for me?" Li Qian walked straight towards the location of the red sports car and asked with a smile as he got closer and saw An Paozi sitting inside.
An Paozi pointed to the passenger seat and said excitedly, "Let's go! I'm super happy today, and I'll take you out for some fun!"
Li Qian paused for a moment, then asked, "Have you awakened?"
An Paozi laughed and gave a thumbs up, "You're the best, brother! I'm so happy for you!"
"Not today," Li Qian shook his head, firmly rejecting An Paozi's suggestion. He patted the backpack on his back and shared his plans, "I'm going to Yun Lan City."
"You're going to Yun Lan City?" An Paozi looked at Li Qian with doubt, "What's up?"
Li Qian patted his chest and smiled mysteriously, "To witness the birth of my Overlord-grade Dominant Potential Companion Beast?"
"Huh?" An Paozi scratched his head, "Brother, are you joking?"
He felt that Li Qian's words were even more unbelievable than his own awakening.
It wasn't that he didn't trust his friend.
It had only been a little over a month since Li Qian brought up the topic.
Discovering the evolution method for an Overlord-grade Dominant Potential Companion Beast in such a short time?
If this unbelievable news were true, An Paozi knew that his friend was probably a genius in breeding, a true prodigy.
With such talent, unless they met an untimely end, their future achievements would be limitless. Becoming a Breeding Master, or even a Breeding Grandmaster, was within reach.
Whether it was a miracle or a joke, An Paozi decided he had to go and witness it himself.
With his mind made up, An Paozi pointed to the passenger seat, "Get in, I'm coming with you!"
Li Qian didn't hesitate and opened the car door, "What, you think I'm joking?"
"If you dare joke, I'll tell Tu Jiaojiao that after she rejected you, you wanted to live..."
"Damn, that's harsh, making things up!"
"What do you mean, making things up? Last time, you really did follow her like a clingy uncle..."
"..."
As they joked and laughed, the two of them got in the car and sped towards the high-speed railway station.
As for driving directly to Yun Lan City... they weren't that desperate yet.
The wild wasn't always safe.
What if they encountered a terrifying wild Companion Beast?
Every high-speed train was at least an Overlord-rank Mechanical Beast, so there was no need to worry.
Safety was guaranteed.
