Chapter 864 -859: The Ambitions of Black and White
The cooperation with the tribe didn’t bring about significant changes to Bai Qi’s life, as Wang Chen from the Federation had already begun communications, and “Six Paths” was being adjusted by Husky.
The addition of the tribe was definitely a good thing for “Six Paths,” as it could greatly expand the diversity of Schuck’s soul and even his physical database.
As for things like Soul Contracts, that was a different matter altogether.
Plus, Bai Qi was now busy with other matters.
“How come Epsilon turned back into a cocoon again? The gift from the Sun Beetle still has an effect; it’s not going to morph back into an insect, is it?”
Looking at the wormgrass turning into a cocoon once again, Bai Qi just felt a bit of a toothache.
He may not be obsessed with dragons, and he had no issue with the Insect Race, but if the wormgrass really turned back into an insect’s form, he still found it a bit hard to accept.
Why, you ask?
Because it’s cool!
The wormgrass now has both insect and dragon in its form, and although it doesn’t give off the same oppressive vibe as traditional giant dragons, it has added a wicked sense of coolness.
And if you occasionally ride the wormgrass out, the appearance is quite striking, but riding on an insect…
Setting aside the looks, the advantage of being part insect-dragon is huge, not to mention that it also has a tree growing on its head.
“I hope it can hold on…”
After observing for a bit, Bai Qi thought about it and decided to encase the wormgrass with an Evolution Egg.
With the Evolution Egg in place, it would inevitably guide the wormgrass in the best possible direction, and he could be a bit more at ease.
“At last, I can go find the Elemental Spirit.”
Bai Qi left the Beast Control Space and planned to set off to find the Elemental Spirit.
“Bai Qi, Bai Qi, are you there?”
Just then, Luo Xiang suddenly burst through the door, followed by Yi Yu and the people from the Thirteenth Bureau’s Zero Team.
“Instructor Luo, Minister Yi, and everyone from the Zero Team, huh, is Li Xusheng also here? What brings you all?”
asked Bai Qi.
“I’m just leading the way; they’re the ones who have something to discuss with you.”
Luo Xiang pointed to Yi Yu beside him, walked over to the sofa in the corner as if he owned the place, and sat down, looking completely uninvolved.
“Sorry to bother you at this time, but I am here on behalf of the Guardians of Eden and would like to discuss a trade with the Super God Evolution Research Institute.”
“Another negotiation?”
Bai Qi raised an eyebrow. What fortuitous day was it today that everyone was coming to negotiate?
“Another? It seems someone got to us even earlier.”
Yi Yu gave a slight smile and said, “We actually had planned to come over a few days ago, but since you, the Legend of Apocalypse, were not around, we put it off.”
“Actually, it’s quite simple. We would like to trouble the Super God Evolution Research Institute to design a drug or a device that would allow humans to also gain transcendent bloodlines…”

“No way!!!”
Before Yi Yu could finish speaking, Bai Qi had already vehemently refused without hesitation.
“If it were any other deal, I might consider it, but transplanting transcendent bloodlines is absolutely off the table for the Super God Evolution Research Institute!”
Bai Qi’s expression was stern. The experiences from the Dark Emperor Period had proven that while transplanting transcendent bloodlines might grant powerful strength temporarily, in the end, it only led to becoming beasts without rational thought.
In comparison, the beastmen evolved from the Bond Curse Mark were a bit more reliable.
“Then I’ll offer a different proposition.”
Unsurprised by Bai Qi’s refusal, Yi Yu called Li Xusheng and the Zero Team forward, saying, “We would like to ask the Legend of Apocalypse to research a drug or device that can develop their bloodline’s potential.”
“We hope that Xusheng and the others who are of mixed heritage can also exert power that does not belong to transcendent creatures of the same level.”
Hearing Yi Yu’s words, Bai Qi suddenly understood.
This was Yi Yu’s actual purpose; the previous request was just a feeler—if it succeeded, it was a bonus; if not, it was no loss.
“Minister Yi, are you really sure you want to do this? They’re currently in a balanced state with their transcendent bloodlines, and a sudden increase could cause them to lose human rationality.”
Bai Qi pondered his words carefully. Unlike the mixed heritage formed through alchemy, Li Xusheng and his group had natural bloodlines.
They might have experienced loss of control during their growth, but being taken in by the Thirteenth Bureau meant they had strong enough wills to suppress the wildness in their bloodlines.
But if they used external forces to enhance their bloodlines, despite gaining stronger powers, it would also disrupt the balance between their will and their bloodlines.
It would then be hard to say whether it was the person controlling the bloodline or the bloodline controlling the person.
“We’re very clear on that aspect, but mixed bloods have a somewhat different soul structure from ours, and their willpower is not something we can easily estimate.”
Yi Yu shook his head and continued, “Moreover, for now, Eden only plans to try this on those mixed bloods with a weak human lineage.”
“I see.”
With that explanation, Bai Qi nodded in understanding, stroked his chin in thought, and said, “If you want to strengthen a bloodline, the current awakening agents at the Super God Evolution Research Institute are sufficient, but they’re designed for transcendent creatures and would need some adjustments.”
“Understood, so have you agreed then, Legend of Apocalypse?”
Yi Yu asked with a slight nod.
“I need to have my parents research the feasibility before I can give a definite answer. If there are no problems, I’ll ask Uncle Zhuge to get in touch with Minister Yi.”
Bai Qi still didn’t give a definite answer, as issues involving willpower were uncertain, and at least for now, Bai Qi was not ready to make a guarantee.
“Alright, then I’ll wait for the good news.”
Just like when he arrived, Yi Yu left in a hurry, but he left Li Xusheng and the others behind.
“Xusheng and his team have now hit a bottleneck, so it’s best for them to stay and coordinate with Super God’s research. You can command them as you like, Legend of Apocalypse.”
Yi Yu pointed at Li Xusheng and his six companions, then glanced at Luo Xiang, who immediately got up and walked to Bai Qi’s side, saying, “Since we’re done talking, we’ll take our leave now. There are still many things to do.”
“Many things? Haven’t you dumped all your work on me, Instructor Luo?”
Bai Qi looked at Luo Xiang with annoyance, while Luo Xiang appeared innocent, saying, “Isn’t it the case that the capable should take on more work? Besides, it’s not like I have nothing to do, right, Minister Yi?”
“I’m not clear about the association’s matters, so I can’t give an answer.”
Yi Yu responded indifferently, then turned and left.
“Hey, hey, hey, we’ve worked together for so long, can’t you show a little more enthusiasm?”
“No.”
Seeing the two people walking away, Bai Qi sighed.
These two used to be at odds with each other, how come they suddenly switched roles now?
And these folks, did Yi Yu really just leave them here?
Isn’t he afraid I’m going to turn Li Xusheng and his team into guinea pigs for dissection?
Thinking of this, Bai Qi sighed again.
These adults, each one is a bigger trap than the last.
“Since Minister Yi requests it, then please stay. I will immediately arrange for someone to take you for an evaluation and then proceed with the research,” Bai Qi said, looking towards Li Xusheng. Li Xusheng, whose aura was much stronger than before, was still at the level of a Six Stage Beast Master, apparently having been surpassed by Bai Qiucha.
“Yes!”
Li Xusheng nodded solemnly, then under the guidance of the staff, left along with Zero Team.
The world had ascended, and everyone’s strengths had improved.
Only these mixed-bloods, who had once had all the advantages, now found themselves stuck in a bottleneck, as if the world itself was refusing to acknowledge them.
So as long as there was anything that could help them break through this bottleneck, they were willing to accept any experiment.
“This really is a never-ending task…” Bai Qi sighed, feeling like he had sighed more today than in the total of two years since he arrived in this world.
Although he had been mentally prepared, he hadn’t expected to be this busy. It seems he really can’t stay here any longer; otherwise, he’ll eventually be worked to death.
It would be best to find a competent assistant to handle these matters, as after all, many things were something the Super God Evolution Research Institute could do on its own.
“Speaking of assistants, where did Black and White go?” Bai Qi slapped his forehead suddenly. Since his return, he seemed not to have seen Black and White at all.
He remembered that before he traveled through time, Black and White had been left behind in the rear, in charge of deploying the Dual Sky Mech. Logically, with the war over, he should have returned.
“Could it be that Black and White was affected by the war and dismantled by someone?”
Bai Qi’s expression changed. If the Law Emperor really had created Black and White as he had instructed, then Black and White could be considered an extension of the Law Emperor’s life.
If Black and White died just like that, Bai Qi would surely regret it for the rest of his life.
“Don’t worry, Black and White isn’t dead.”
Just then, Schuck suddenly spoke up, his voice full of confidence.
“How do you know?”
“Because he just submitted a materials request list to me, um, it’s quite extensive.”
“…”
Bai Qi fell silent, opening the work smart-brain in his office and indeed saw an ID named “Black and White” had sent him a materials transfer request.
And that list of materials was indeed very long!
“Such a large demand for materials, and it’s not the first time, either. What is Black and White planning to do?”
Bai Qi reviewed the historical records. There was more than one such application from Black and White, all approved by Zhuge Xu, and judging by the time intervals between approvals, Zhuge Xu agreed exceptionally swiftly.
“Could it be that Black and White is designing some sort of powerful mech?”
Bai Qi grew curious and wanted to go ask Black and White directly, but Schuck pulled up a video segment of Black and White and Zhuge Xu.
In the video, the two didn’t talk much; it was mainly Black and White showing Zhuge Xu a complex blueprint, which depicted a giant mech of imposing size.
The design resembled the Dual Sky Mech somewhat, only more intricate.
Black and White’s words confirmed this as well.
“…In summary, I hope to create a mech that can contend not only with a Demi-God but with a legend, a super mech!”
“This mech can learn and improve on its own and adjust its capabilities according to the surrounding environment, inflicting maximum damage on the enemy.”
“With this mech, any creature that threatens human safety will be eradicated, just like the soldiers guarding the far-frontier.”
“I’ve come up with a very fitting name for it…”
“Sentinel!”
