Chapter 342: Consecutive Experiments
Chapter 342: Consecutive Experiments
On a tree-lined path, Li Qian stared at the items Professor Yan had brought out, feeling a little petrified.
Professor Yan had taken out two items.
One of them was very familiar to Li Qian.
It was the self-destruct robot that had been used once before, leaving Sun Shouhe on the brink of death.
The milky white sphere with a red button in the center.
As he watched Professor Yan casually take out the milky white sphere, Li Qian couldn't help but twitch his eyes.
This was a powerful weapon, and you were taking it out so casually. Wasn't that a bit...
Without hesitation, Li Qian directly took the milky white sphere and put it away.
He stored it in his spatial necklace.
Then, he turned his gaze to the other deep blue sphere, "What's this?"
"Protector One and Exploder One," Professor Yan held the deep blue sphere in her hand and explained, "Exploder One, you've used it once, so you should know its function. I won't go into too much detail."
Without pausing, she continued, "This is Protector One, and its function is a bit different. After pressing this button, an energy shield will be generated, capable of withstanding attacks from Imperial-rank Companion Beasts, and it can last for about three minutes."
"If it's a Dominator-rank, it can last for half an hour with ease."
Hearing Professor Yan's explanation, Li Qian's eyes revealed a hint of shock.
If used well, this Protector One could be more valuable than Exploder One.
The purpose of Exploder One was to destroy enemies.
While Protector One was for self-preservation.
If destroying the enemy failed, one's fate would be death. But with self-preservation, one could at least buy some time.
To put it simply, Exploder One was a one-hit wonder.
The risk factor was high.
On the other hand, Protector One had a much higher margin for error.
"Th...thank you, Professor Yan!" Li Qian sincerely expressed his gratitude as he took the second deep blue sphere.
Professor Yan chuckled, "Don't thank me. This was actually specially requested by Director Fei of your Cultivation Academy."
"Then why did he..." Li Qian was puzzled.
Professor Yan understood Li Qian's confusion and waved her hand, "Perhaps he felt I was more familiar with this matter."
Li Qian shook his head with a smile, "I'll thank him tomorrow."
Soon after, Professor Yan left.
Watching Professor Yan's departing figure, Li Qian muttered to himself, "The school is quite thoughtful, treating me with a tight grip internally but a relaxed approach externally."
After this period of study, Li Qian also realized that the school valued him quite a bit.
Perhaps they were just creating a more relaxed learning environment for him and didn't want to show it too much.
"I won't think too much about it. There will be plenty of opportunities to repay them in the future." Shaking his head, Li Qian stopped overthinking and headed straight to Xianya Courtyard.
Another weekend arrived quietly, and Li Qian once again found himself on the rooftop of the main building, in Laboratory 108.
This laboratory was quite convenient for Li Qian, so he applied to use it again.
There were no surprises, and Director Fei readily agreed.
Li Qian was grateful for this, and sincerely thanked Director Fei, including for the matter of Exploder One and Protector One.
Director Fei was delighted to hear Li Qian's gratitude, repeatedly stating that it was the academy's duty.
Entering Laboratory 108, Li Qian released a Rock Monster from a Beast Ball he had purchased in advance and began observing it.
After observing for a moment without any significant findings, he took out the potions and prepared to start the experiment, "I hope these three Cloud Mist Nines will come in handy.
"Let's try one first."
After a brief moment of staring at the rock monster in front of him, Li Qian directly handed over a bottle of light purple potion.
The rock monster took the potion and, at Li Qian's request, swallowed it.
Moments later, a faint evolution glow suddenly appeared on its body.
"It's starting!" After seeing this faint evolution glow, Li Qian's expression became even more focused.
Then, right under his watchful eyes, this faint evolution glow quickly faded away.
It was really fast.
All in all, it was estimated to be around three seconds.
Seeing this, Li Qian pursed his lips, "I didn't expect the first attempt to fail."
"But this is also within expectations. If the first attempt had succeeded, that would have been abnormal!" After comforting himself, Li Qian released another rock monster.
This time, for the experiment, he directly purchased three rock monsters with strengths reaching the upper limit of their species potential.
Soon, the second experiment began.
As expected by Li Qian, this second experiment also ended in failure.
The second failure did not dampen Li Qian's spirits.
He remained expressionless and continued with the third experiment.
Moments later, the third attempt also failed.
This time, Li Qian couldn't hold back.
Although he knew the probability of success was minuscule, the consecutive failures still caused his emotions to fluctuate.
Closing his eyes, Li Qian began to quietly sense the energy, "The energy fluctuations from these three attempts are obviously different from the ones in the underground cavern!"
He stood there in Laboratory 108, deep in thought for about half an hour.
Half an hour later, he suddenly opened his eyes, and a glint of light shot from his eyes.
"There's a chance!" He muttered to himself and immediately dialed a number.
The next day, still in Laboratory 108 of the main building, Li Qian once again held three "Cloud Mist Nine" potions and three Beast Balls containing rock monsters.
These three "Cloud Mist Nine" potions and Beast Balls were naturally purchased by Li Qian and obtained from Professor Yan.
Professor Yan did not refuse and readily provided three more potions.
Inside Laboratory 108, the evolution experiment began again, and this time, the evolution glow was noticeably different from the previous attempt, "The evolution glow is becoming more intense."
"Success!" When the evolution glow reached a certain level, almost covering the entire rock monster, Li Qian couldn't help but observe and sense it, mobilizing all his mental strength.
Soon, he had a realization, "A very rich earth attribute glow, and this faint red color should be the effect of the Crimson Star Stone."
"In other words, a Crimson Star Stone combined with an earth-attributed extraordinary resource can perfectly substitute for the Flowing Cloud Crimson Star Stone."
"But what is this earth-attributed resource?"
Li Qian furrowed his brows, thought for a moment, and then, as the evolution glow faded and the rock monster returned to its original form, he couldn't help but exclaim, "During the evolution just now, I clearly sensed that there seemed to be dark attribute energy bursting out as well!"
"An extraordinary resource with both earth and dark attributes."
Moments later, Li Qian's brows relaxed, and he smiled faintly, "The scope has narrowed significantly, but it will still take some time to figure out."
He wasn't in a hurry.
With his thoughts reaching this point, he was very close to unraveling the final mystery.
A thought crossed his mind, and he considered another path, "Or I can ask Dean Fei!"
