Taking a can of iced coffee from Lin Shuo, Qin Nan skillfully opened it and took a big sip before sighing comfortably.
Her eyes fell back on Gui Gui, who had quietly hid behind Lin Shuo, looking at her timidly, "So, this new race that you named the clown has been following you for a long time, but it was only recently that it was
Did you notice it?"
"That's right." Lin Shuo nodded heavily with a sincere expression.
Of course, it was impossible for him to tell Qin Nan the true origin of Gui Gui. Although everything happened a bit suddenly, fortunately, Lin Shuo had planned to ask Qin Nan tomorrow about how to deal with Gui Gui's matter, so how to explain Gui Gui's origin?
He had some thoughts on this issue before.
Theoretically, any alien beast comes from the mutation caused by the radiation of the nether energy stone. Most of the initial races began to mutate when the catastrophe came two hundred years ago, but there are also a few.
It is a new initial race that was born one after another after the catastrophe.
Lin Shuo had no idea how the race of clowns mutated. In addition, Guigui already had elite level strength and had such high skill proficiency. Therefore, it was impossible for him to tell that Guigui was a newly mutated mutant.
The word "beast race" is too easy to expose.
In order to make everything more reasonable, he must model Gui Gui's past experience.
According to what he told Qin Nan, Gui Gui sneaked into his shadow a long time ago and followed him without knowing the specific time, but did not show up. He never noticed anything strange until his beast master
The space was upgraded to the third level, and Guigui showed up and expressed that he wanted to make a contract with him.
Although it sounds very magical and very similar to the plot in a novel, this statement puts the issues of how Guigui was born, how he has such high skill proficiency, and how he has elite level strength into the category that Lin Shuo has no idea about.
, so that no one can find fault.
I don’t know what you’re asking about, so you’d better stop asking.
And this statement is not entirely false, it can be regarded as nine falsehoods and one truth.
This is indeed how Lin Shuo and Gui Gui met.
"Okay." Qin Nan shook his head, and then asked another question, "Is your beast control space at the third level?"
How long has this been going on?!
If a normal person wants to upgrade the beast control space from the second level to the third level, it will take at least a year, right?
Fortunately for this boy, when I first met him two months ago, his beast-controlling space was already at the second level, and now, just a short time later, he was already at the third level.
In the past few days after Lin Shuo's beast control space broke through to the third level, every time he appeared in front of Qin Nan, he had already summoned Qiuqiu in advance, so Qin Nan had no idea about this before.
"Yes." Lin Shuo nodded and smiled sheepishly, "Maybe I'm gifted?"
Qin Nan: "..."
Meditation practice in the beast-controlling space, is there such a thing as giftedness?
"Okay, then I'll consider you talented." Qin Nan was almost annoyed by Lin Shuo. Her eyes turned to Qiuqiu, who was squatting aside and eating snacks quietly, "What about Qiuqiu's skills?"
What's going on?"
Qiuqiu's movements paused slightly, and he looked up from the snack bag with a blank expression, with the remains of snacks still on his cheeks.
Why do you still have your own affairs?
"What skill?" Lin Shuo blinked, not understanding what Qin Nan meant.
But vaguely, he began to feel something bad.
"It's the skill that Qiuqiu used in the actual combat assessment. It can freeze the enemy by touching it with its claws." Qin Nan said angrily, "Don't say you don't have it. I can see it clearly in the control room.
Chu, no wonder you applied for a research project on ice teaching skills and the co-authorship has been developed, right?"
Lin Shuo: "???"
Too careless!
The man-made supernatural omnic will keep an eye on every candidate throughout the process. He knows that, after all, if not, the other party will not be able to record the points gained.
But he wasn't too worried about exposing anything. After all, omnics need to keep an eye on tens of thousands of candidates, so they shouldn't pay much attention to what skills Qiuqiu uses to defeat the opponent.
He really didn't expect that there would be such a thing as monitoring in actual combat assessment.
And isn’t Sister Nan a researcher?!
If you, a researcher, don't stay well in the research institute, why would you go to check on the surveillance?
"Sister Nan..." Lin Shuo coughed lightly, "This is about it... Qiuqiu has indeed mastered a brand new teaching skill, but this is a coincidence, so the same teaching method for this skill has not yet been developed..."
"Stop talking." Qin Nan rolled his eyes angrily, and his expression gradually became serious, "You kid, there are really a lot of secrets. It was like this last time Qiuqiu evolved, and it's like this again."
Lin Shuo's heart skipped a beat.
The last evolution of Qiuqiu?
Sister Nan knows?!
What went wrong?
etc…
He recalled his previous plan to help Qiuqiu evolve, and his expression changed slightly.
It seems that a very crucial link is missing!
After Shenwu helped Qiuqiu evolve, he applied for Xue Henqing's evolutionary research project.
However, there are loopholes in the evolutionary resources of Qiuqiu itself!
He subconsciously ignored this issue. On the one hand, Qiuqiu had evolved, and he thought no one would care about this little thing. On the other hand, if he spent more than 10,000 contribution points to exchange for the same level 6 resource, Qiuqiu wouldn't be able to use it.
It's really a waste.
Although he has made many contributions, Lin Shuo has been through hardships since childhood and subconsciously wants to save some...
Is it because of this that Sister Nan discovered the problem?
His expression gradually became tangled.
Although Sister Nan has always been very kind to him, being able to travel between two worlds is his biggest secret, and he cannot tell it.
So how to explain...
"Okay, don't think about how to explain it to me." As if he could see what Lin Shuo was thinking, Qin Nan casually took a sip of iced coffee and said casually, "Everyone has secrets, as long as you don't
If it has something to do with the Beast Cult, I won’t bother to care about it.”
"Of course that's impossible." Lin Shuo shook his head violently, sat up straight with a firm expression, and a light of hatred flashed in his eyes, "My parents left this world because of the beast tide, and I am incompatible with the alien beasts!"
Although he was only two or three years old at that time, the scene of his biological father and mother sacrificing themselves in the beasts to protect him is still fixed in his memory to this day.
This is also one of the few clear memories Lin Shuo has of his biological father and mother.
Although most of the races are the same, Lin Shuo's attitude towards Blue Star's alien beasts and Shenwu's alien beasts was completely different from the beginning.
"That's fine." Qin Nan's eyes looked a little more satisfied, "It just so happens that I also have a big grudge against the Alien Beast Cult."
"Let's not talk about it." She casually mentioned Lin Shuo's secret, but then changed the topic to Gui Gui again as if she didn't care at all, "Your pet beast, judging from the normal energy value, is already elite. Is it the monarch level? However, Xiaoyu has tested it before and it seems that it does not know how to be a monarch, so it should be a leader race with a high energy value."
"Yes." Lin Shuo suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his heart and nodded, "Its normal energy value was already very high when I met it, but it is indeed the leader of the race."
"It's interesting." Qin Nan's eyes were a little more eager to try, but after looking at the sky and Lin Shuo's tired expression, he still sighed softly, "Forget it, you have worked hard in the actual combat assessment today, so I won't bother you. Come on, bring this little guy to the research institute tomorrow and I will test its various skills, which can also be used as parameters for submitting a new initial race."
"Yeah!" Lin Shuo nodded and looked at Qin Nan nervously.
He was now afraid that Qin Nan would reveal any of his secrets again without warning.
"Ha..." Seeing Lin Shuo's honest and courteous look, Qin Nan chuckled, drank the coffee in his hand, and placed the empty can on the table, "It's getting late, I'm leaving."
Is Sister Nan finally leaving?
Lin Shuo breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "Sister Nan, can I see you off?"
"No need." Qin Nan waved his hand, stood up and walked straight out of the door.
"Card."
The door closed gently, and Qin Nan, who walked out of Lin Shuo's dormitory, stepped into the transport elevator and pinched his chin.
Lin Shuo has many secrets.
His experience was still shallow, and many plans were not perfect. There were always some small loopholes. As Lin Shuo's leader, the problems that Lin Shuo inadvertently exposed could be hidden from others, but not from her.
When he discovered the problem of Qiuqiu's evolution before, Qin Nan wanted to remind Lin Shuo and ask him to pay attention to it, but after thinking about it, he gave up the plan, pretending that he didn't know what to do, and just silently cleaned up for him.
Now that Lin Shuo was exposed to more and more unusual things, she had to do this.
It's okay for her secret to be discovered by herself. She has such a personality and doesn't like to inquire into other people's secrets. But if someone else discovers the problem... this kid will be in trouble.
Not only in the Alien Beast Cult, but also within the alliance, everyone is as easy to talk to as himself.
With her reminder today, this kid should learn to be more cautious, right?
It was rare to have such an interesting guy, and she wanted to see if Lin Shuo could come up with more interesting research results.
As for the source of these results...
Is it important?
As long as it's beneficial to the alliance.
…
"call!"
It wasn't until Qin Nan left for a while that Lin Shuo exhaled a breath of turbid air and slumped down on the sofa with some weakness.
"Mi~" (It's okay~)
Qiuqiu came up and gently rubbed Lin Shuo's cheek.
It also knew that Lin Shuo was nervous just now, so it quickly stepped forward to calm Lin Shuo's mood.
Qiuqiu got acquainted with Lin Shuo when Lin Shuo was still a trainee beast master who could not afford the initial pet beast. Therefore, Qiuqiu knew his situation better than Gui Gui and could naturally understand Lin Shuo's worries. What is.
"It should be fine." Lin Shuo smiled bitterly.
At this moment, he began to feel a little scared.
It turns out that Qin Nan had long seen through some of the arrangements he had made to cover up the golden finger that traveled across the two realms.
Obviously Qin Nan had no intention of pursuing it, otherwise when Qiuqiu's evolved form appeared a month ago, she would have taken measures if she discovered the abnormality.
If someone with ill intentions towards me knew this...
Just thinking about it made Lin Shuo's heart twitch.
It seems that in the future, we need to be more cautious when using research results to cover up our own abnormalities.
After coming back to his senses, he thought about what Qin Nan had said about his secret just now, intentionally or unintentionally. It was obvious that Sister Nan also wanted to remind herself of this.
This world is not stable, let alone the Beast Cult that attacked him a few days ago. If the other party knew his secret, they would probably target him at all costs.
But now his own strength is still too weak. Even if the Beast Control Association provides certain security forces, the situation is still not safe enough.
Shaking his head and forcing down the chaotic thoughts in his heart, Lin Shuo looked at Gui Gui, who stood nervously beside him, poking his little paws at each other, secretly looking at him, and sighed softly.
It would be a lie to say that I don't blame Gui Gui at all.
After Qin Nan told the specific situation, Lin Shuo found out that it was this little fool who shouted "catch the thief", took himself as a new starting race, took a photo and submitted it...
As he thought about it, Lin Shuo himself laughed angrily.
Isn't this a self-inflicted trap?
Lin Shuo originally thought of this method, but it was completely different for him to submit it, and for Guigui to submit it himself. After all, Guigui had just used Blue Star's technology products, so he didn't understand many things, and he still didn't have an account.
A guest account certified by the Beast Taming Association.
If he operates as a researcher, many things will be much simpler.
Fortunately, I am lucky. Because it is the closest to here, my reviewer this time is still Qin Nan. If it had been reviewed by someone else...
etc…
If there were other auditors, they wouldn’t break in under normal circumstances, right?!
Lin Shuo covered his face speechlessly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Through the telepathy in the beast control space, he could clearly feel the tension and anxiety in Gui Gui's heart at this moment.
This time it did get into quite a bit of trouble.
That’s all.
Feeling the little guy's nervousness, Lin Shuo couldn't bear to blame it anymore.
Pulling Gui Gui's little paw, Lin Shuo gently pulled Gui Gui in front of him. Lin Shuo touched its little head and spoke softly to Gui Gui's anxious expression, "Why did you think of submitting the initial alien beast race?
"
This was also something Lin Shuo puzzled over.
Logically speaking, the task he assigned to Guigui today was to learn some knowledge about dark-type pets through Blue Star's network, and to pick out the skills he wanted to learn.
No matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with submitting the initial race?
Qin Nan was here just now, so he couldn't help but not ask, but now he couldn't help it.
"Jie...(╥﹏╥)" (Want to learn the bite of nothingness...)
Guigui lowered his head and spoke sheepishly.
"Bite of Nothingness?" Lin Shuo blinked.
Because of Gui Gui's relationship, he also gained some knowledge about dark-type pet beasts that he didn't know much about before. Lin Shuo had naturally heard about this skill, which is known as the most difficult teaching skill of the dark type.
Speaking of which, this skill is really suitable for Guigui.
This skill integrates offense and defense. It can be used as a defensive skill to offset the opponent's attack, and it can also be used as an offensive skill to devour and destroy the opponent. The only flaw is probably that it is too powerful and consumes a lot of physical strength.
However, due to the few dark resources, Guigui's normal energy value has always been in a state that exceeds that of other strange beasts at the same level. Normal energy value and physical strength are actually the same concept, so Guigui uses such a high-consuming skill.
Can be maintained.
From this point of view, Guigui is quite good at choosing skills, at least this skill was chosen very well.
It's just...does this have anything to do with what they said?
"You can just learn if you want to?" Lin Shuo couldn't laugh or cry, "What does this have to do with you submitting yourself?"
"Jie..." (But the Bite of Nothingness requires 500 contribution points to redeem...)
Gui Gui's expression became coy, he poked his finger and spoke in a low voice.
"Jie, Jie, Jie..." (500 contribution points are so expensive, and the beast master will definitely not be able to get them, so I have to find a way to earn them myself...)
Listening to Gui Gui's embarrassed words, Lin Shuo's expression became strange.
Qiuqiu, who was still listening quietly, looked confused at this moment.
That's it?
This thought came to everyone's mind at the same time.
After a while, Lin Shuo, who thoroughly understood the situation, couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Is it because of this?
Because the skill of Bite of the Void is very powerful, its initial development consumed a lot of research resources, and the teaching plan is complicated, so the redemption requires a lot of contribution points.
Under normal circumstances, a teaching skill can be exchanged for dozens of contribution points, and hundreds of contribution points are considered precious. For example, Qiuqiu's Frost-Repelling Blessing was exchanged for 150 contribution points at the time, and Bite of Nothingness was exchanged for 500 contribution points.
It is indeed the most expensive group of teaching skills teaching programs.
But it also depends on who it is for.
To Lin Shuo, this was nothing.
Not to mention the 300,000 contribution point reward brought to him by Xue Henqing's evolutionary route, before that, the contribution point reward brought to Lin Shuo by the evolutionary technique "Sleep in Dreams" was a full 800,000.
Spiritual evolution skills can bring new changes to the evolution of pet beasts. That kind of contribution is definitely not comparable to any single evolution type or evolution route, and the rewards will naturally be extra large.
Adding these two incomes together, Lin Shuo's contribution point balance has easily exceeded one million, not counting other miscellaneous incomes.
Guigui's current situation is that as the pet beast of a beast master with one million contribution points, it sold itself in order to learn a teaching skill with 500 contribution points...
Lin Shuo was not surprised at all by Gui Gui's choice at this moment.
There are not many ways to obtain contribution points, and the only thing that Guigui can do now is to submit a new initial race.
So, for Guigui, this is the only way.
Lin Shuo sighed lightly and rubbed Gui Gui's head, "Can you tell me before making such a decision in the future?"
“Jie!(／.＼)”(Okay!)
Gui Gui nodded hurriedly. After such an experience, it didn't dare to mess around again.
"As for the Bite of Nothingness you mentioned, you can actually learn it without doing this." Lin Shuo shook his head, opened the backend of his Beast Taming Association, and put the balance of his contribution points in front of Gui Gui, "It's my fault for not following him in advance.
You said, if you need to use your contribution points in the future, just tell me."
He really didn't expect that Guigui would need his contribution points so soon, so he never mentioned it before.
Looking at the light screen in front of him, Guigui blinked and stretched out his trembling paws to tap on the balance number.
