His choice of evolutionary path was one of the less eye-catching types.
The Swift Lizard itself was an upper-middle-tier earth element elite species. After evolution along this path, the result—a water-earth dual element Big Mouthed Crocodile—was just a low-level leader species, having climbed only a minor rank to barely become a leader species.
What's more, the Swift Lizard had another evolutionary path on Blue Star that could turn it into an upper-level leader species in the earth element category, the Split Rock Lizard, thus making this evolutionary path seem even more lackluster.
The Alliance awarded many contribution points for any new evolutionary path.
So even if the evolutionary path Lin Su provided was somewhat lackluster, the contribution points he could gain from it would not be few.
The level six resources needed for Qiuqiu's evolution were not enough, but over the next two months, before the entrance exam for Beast Tamer University, there would be no problem supporting both Lin Su and Qiuqiu to train full-force.
Thinking that in a few days, he and Qiuqiu wouldn't have to worry about training resources for some time, a radiant smile appeared on Lin Su's face.
Slowly closing his eyes, he began to communicate with Qiuqiu, who had fully recovered his spirit and awakened within the Beast Taming Space.
"Qiuqiu, next I'm going to take you to the Divine Martial World."
"Meow!" (I'm so looking forward to it!)
"Don't just look forward to it, you remember the plan we discussed before, right?" Lin Su reminded.
"Meow!" (Rest assured, Lin Su!)
Qiuqiu indicated that everything was under control!
Seeing that Qiuqiu was ready, Lin Su put aside the closed communicator, lay down on the bed, and closed his eyes.
After a while, he still couldn't fall asleep.
It was probably because he had just submitted the evolutionary path that he was a bit excited, causing insomnia.
This was no good.
Lin Su scratched his head.
He recalled that Qiuqiu's evolutionary form, apart from the ice element, also had the spirit element.
Spirit element teaching capabilities, wasn't there hypnosis?
He needed to let Qiuqiu evolve sooner and learn this ability, so he could fall asleep anytime he wanted.
One sheep, two sheep...
After counting sheep for a while, the weariness from training finally overcame his excitement, and the wave of drowsiness that swept in sent him into a deep sleep.
...
At the Evolution Research Institute in the Mountain City Beast Tamer University.
In one of the labs, a short-haired woman sat dejectedly in a swivel chair. Under the bright lights, her delicate features appeared more sculpted, and her brows, straight and slim as swords, lent her an air of vigor that detracted somewhat from feminine softness.
"Tsss~"
She seemed to pull out a beer can from nowhere, popped it open, and took a big gulp, "glug glug," her cheeks gradually blooming with a tipsy flush.
After a beer burp, the woman put down the can, muttering disgruntledly to herself.
"Another damn failure. There was nothing wrong with my calculations; why won't the Divine Light Butterfly evolve?"
"So annoying!" she shouted into the empty lab before grabbing the beer can and resuming her drinking, "glug glug."
"Beep beep beep."
A series of urgent tones had the woman instinctively reaching for her communicator. Upon turning it on, a message popped up.
[The Beast Tamer Association invites you to verify a new evolutionary form of the Swift Lizard.]
"The Swift Lizard? That clunky thing that has nothing swift about it?" The woman showed a trace of disdain, but still accepted, "I want to see what kind of evolution this is."
Swiftly, the text content that Lin Su had compiled appeared before the woman.
After just one glance, the woman with the spirited eyebrows painfully furrowed them together, "I hate these messed-up report formats from idiots."
Upon seeing the brief introduction at the front, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Evolving towards the water element and using a second-level fire element resource? What is the Beast Tamer Association doing? Why don't they just reject this clearly sloppily written, luck-testing evolutionary path?"
Despite her constant complaints, the woman patiently read through the entire introduction to the evolutionary path.
Her expression became increasingly odd.
Though this report was damn absurd.
Why did she feel like there was something damn reasonable about it??
Was there an issue with this evolutionary path, or was she the one with the issue???
