Chapter 88: Lu Hai Kong's Return
Chapter 88: Lu Hai Kong's Return
In the Fucheng Breeder Trainer Center's breeding room.
After being punished for his previous fishing incident, Zhao Kai Ming had been idle for days, spending his time conducting research within the breeding room.
His current research subject was none other than Lu Wu's Skeleton Soup.
Well, the reason this old man was studying this was because he hadn't given up on Lu Wu.
Those two old men were only temporarily preventing him from taking Lu Wu as his disciple; they weren't forbidding it forever.
Zhao Kai Ming felt that with sufficient preparation, he still had a chance to make Lu Wu his disciple.
And in terms of preparation, Zhao Kai Ming believed that starting with Lu Wu's interests would be a good choice.
Wasn't that kid's initial Summon Beast a Mini Skeleton?
Hadn't he been researching ways to improve the Mini Skeleton's quality all this time? Zhao Kai Ming thought he could lend a hand in this regard.
After all, the quality of Lu Wu's Mini Skeleton had reached the Bronze Grade, and its strength had already attained a 2-star level.
At this standard, in terms of the Mini Skeleton's potential, it was almost ready to trigger a form evolution.
Perhaps when the Mini Skeleton's strength reaches 3-stars or the Elite Level, it should be able to evolve.
However, there weren't many breeders researching Mini Skeletons, and there weren't many successful evolutions either. Most evolutions occurred by chance, making it extremely challenging to find an effective evolution plan for the Mini Skeleton.
But this was also an opportunity for Zhao Kai Ming.
If he could research and develop an advancement plan, he would have a bargaining chip to entice that kid to become his disciple.
With this idea in mind, he gathered a large group of Mini Skeletons during this time and began his research using Lu Wu's Skeleton Soup 4.0 as the starting point.
After two days of experimentation, he hadn't found a direction for the Mini Skeleton's evolution, but he did discover a problem.
"How strange, after delving into this research for two days, I've found that while Lu Wu's plan is good, it doesn't seem to have granted the Mini Skeleton any Lightning Attribute Skills."
"The Mini Skeleton is of the Undead type, inherently weak to Lightning. It's challenging to eliminate this weakness, let alone mastering Lightning Skills."
"Even if his Mini Skeleton has Lightning Attribute Companion Gear, the difficulty of awakening Lightning Skills is immense, with a probability of only one in ten thousand at most.
And even if it does awaken Lightning Attributes, the Mini Skeleton might not be able to withstand it, let alone unleash such powerful abilities immediately!"
Zhao Kai Ming felt there might be an issue with Lu Wu's Mini Skeleton.
Hmm, or perhaps it was a stroke of luck.
"Could it have obtained something that helps it merge attributes? But such things are rare.
Hmm, the bait I used for fishing had that function, but it's unlikely that the bait is within the Mini Skeleton."
Zhao Kai Ming's imagination ran wild, but he felt his theory was a bit far-fetched.
"It can't be!
No, it's definitely not!"
"That bait does have that function, but you have to kill it and refine its core for it to work.
That guy went through so much trouble for the bait; he'd never kill it. Even if he did, he'd never put it on the Mini Skeleton."
"He wouldn't go that far, would he? He didn't take the bait with him when he escaped, and then... then put it on the Mini Skeleton, right? Especially since the Mini Skeleton's quality has improved recently, and then..."
Zhao Kai Ming trailed off, realizing the possibility was becoming more plausible.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt it might be true.
This made him feel tense. If his guess was correct, then Lu Wu would be in danger.
"No, I have to go and check on him!"
Zhao Kai Ming was worried. He quickly stopped what he was doing and rushed over to Zhang Wentao, sharing his suspicions with him.
Zhang Wentao took this matter seriously.
Although Zhao Kai Ming's suspicions were just guesses, there was no evidence at all.
Moreover, Lu Wu and the Mini Skeleton had already examined the old man, and they didn't notice anything unusual. Logically, there shouldn't be any issues.
But one must always be cautious, and it would be terrible if the old man's guess turned out to be accurate.
So, they immediately contacted Lu Wu's side.
However, they didn't say much; they just had a simple chat, confirming Lu Wu's willingness to sign the contract and ensuring there were no issues. After confirming Lu Wu's intention to sign, Zhang Wentao asked Zhao Kai Ming to take the Divine Essence Fruit to meet Lu Wu.
If his guess was right, he could protect Lu Wu, and if he was wrong, it would just be a wasted trip.
"I hope this is just a simple errand!"
Otherwise, it might already be too late for Old Zhao to go over there now.
One Six One Nine Book Bar One Look Wu One Correct Version!
As he watched Zhao Kai Ming leave in a hurry, Zhang Wentao could only pray.
...
Lu Wu wasn't entirely clear about Zhao Kai Ming's situation.
When Zhang Wentao called, Lu Wu was in the middle of shearing Wang Han Han's wool.
After hanging up, Lu Wu was about to continue shearing when the phone rang again.
Lu Wu picked it up and saw that it was his grandfather calling.
"Son, I'm back from my business trip. I'll be at the station in thirty minutes. Come and pick me up!"
Lu Wu's face turned black.
He didn't have a car, so how could he pick up the old man? But Lu Hai Kong on the other end didn't give Lu Wu a chance to refuse. He hung up the phone, leaving Lu Wu no choice but to stop shearing and take Doudou to the station by taxi.
When they arrived at the station, Lu Wu finally understood why his grandfather wanted him to pick him up.
Lu Wu looked at the four large boxes next to Lu Hai Kong: "Where did you go to rob these?"
"I can't come back empty-handed after a trip."
"This box is a gift for your mother, this one is for Nini, and this one is for Doudou!"
As Lu Hai Kong spoke, he handed a pink box to Doudou.
"Thank you, Uncle!" Doudou smiled sweetly, reaching out to take the box, but Lu Hai Kong stopped her.
"No, Doudou, don't touch it. The box is heavy, and you might hurt your hand. Let Lu Wu handle it."
Lu Wu lazily chose not to say much, taking two boxes himself and directing the Mini Skeleton to take the other two.
Ah, Lu Wu just realized that the Mini Skeleton could help him out by lending a hand.
Lu Wu then noticed the last remaining box.
The first three boxes already had owners, so this last one should be for him, right? Lu Wu was curious about what his grandfather had brought him, so he reached out and felt the box.
At that moment, Lu Hai Kong, seeing his son's actions, added, "Yes, the last one is for Tuan Tuan and the Mini Skeletons!"
Lu Wu's face turned black in an instant!
