Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 198: To Evolve or Not_1
Chapter 198: Chapter 198: To Evolve or Not_1
"Sorry for the wait."
Feng Yuan emerged with a potion bottle after a while. The light blue liquid inside the bottle emitted a faint glow. Xiao Ji excitedly pounced forward as Feng Yuan came out, hugged Xiao Ji, handed the potion bottle to Chen Xin, then patted Xiao Ji’s head and said
"I apologize for making you wait so long. Are you starving? I’ll fix you some food in a bit."
Xiao Ji nuzzled Feng Yuan in his embrace and shook his head. Zhong Liuyan glanced at Feng Yuan and asked,
"Agunas has already brought food for Xiao Ji and the Dreaming Dragon Baby. How should we use this potion? Are there any precautions we need to take?"
"Just let Yue Bai drink it, there’s nothing to be cautious about; after all, it’s just a medicinal potion."
Feng Yuan said, giving Xiao Ji a gentle poke before addressing the two of them. Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Chen Xin carefully placed Yue Bai on the sickbed, brought the potion bottle to Yue Bai’s lips, and let Yue Bai carefully drink the potion. After drinking the potion, Yue Bai seemed very tired, slowly closed its eyes, and fell asleep on the sickbed.
"There won’t be any problems, right?"
Seeing Yue Bai asleep, Zhong Liuyan expressed her concern, while Orlina walked up to Yue Bai, closely observed Yue Bai’s steady breathing, and said,
"It looks fine. This should be a recovery of vital potential. Once Yue Bai wakes up, I’ll check it and compare it with this afternoon’s report to pinpoint any issues."
"I’ve left the remaining materials in the potion room. I’ll prepare the evolution potion tomorrow."
"Evolution potion?!"
Chen Xin looked at Feng Yuan in surprise. Shaking his head with a hint of helplessness, Feng Yuan looked at Yue Bai and said,
"We have no choice. After all this turmoil, Yue Bai has been forcibly brought to the brink of evolution. If we cannot make it evolve soon, the difficulty of its future evolution will skyrocket. Although I can guarantee that Yue Bai will definitely be able to evolve successfully without accidents, there are still things that need to be made clear."
With serious attention, Feng Yuan turned to Chen Xin and continued,
"Firstly, this evolution is effectively semi-forced, so even if it’s successful, there will be a loss of potential. This will need to be slowly compensated with potions, which I will prepare for you as quickly as possible. Secondly, because it’s a semi-forced evolution, if it fails, it will certainly lead to serious side effects."
Chen Xin, looking at Yue Bai sleeping soundly on the sickbed, was silent for a moment before fixing her gaze on Feng Yuan and asking,
"If we don’t evolve now, won’t it be impossible to evolve in the future?"
"Not necessarily, but a significant increase in difficulty is indeed true."
Chen Xin sighed and said,
"I need to consult Yue Bai’s opinion on this matter. Can I give you a response tomorrow?"
"Sure, I wasn’t planning to prepare more potions today anyway. Yue Bai should be mostly recovered from the damage caused by the forced evolution after resting for a day. Of course, it won’t be exactly the same as before, but you understand that."
"Then I’m taking off."
Seeing Chen Xin’s low spirits, Feng Yuan hugged Xiao Ji, waved to the two, and walked away. As Orlina watched Feng Yuan leave, she sat back at her desk, her gaze occasionally drifting towards Yue Bai on the sickbed. After a while, Yue Bai slowly opened its eyes. Hearing Yue Bai’s cries no longer weak, Chen Xin tightly embraced Yue Bai. Zhong Liuyan looked at Xiao Bai on her shoulder, let out a sigh, and Orlina stood up to check on Yue Bai in Chen Xin’s arms and said,
"Let me do a checkup."
"All set?"
Seeing Feng Yuan return, Qi Chen, lying on the bed, curiously asked. Feng Yuan looked around and asked,
"Where’s Dou Yanlan? Has she gone back?"
"Go away! What nonsense are you thinking in your head!"
"Tsk!"
"Big Cat, have you eaten yet?"
Feng Yuan looked towards Big Cat in front of the computer, who nodded in response. Qi Chen glanced at Feng Yuan and said,
"You’re almost out of Spirit Beast Food. Need me to buy some for you?"
"No need, I’ll... okay, please do me the favor."
Remembering that he had to work at the special operations team over the weekend, Feng Yuan sighed in resignation. Sitting up, Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan and inquired,
"How’s Chen Xin’s Yue Bai? Nothing wrong, I hope?"
"The medicine’s ready, and it should mostly recover. Even though it can’t fully revert, there shouldn’t be any problems."
Qi Chen sighed and said,
"I can’t believe there’s fraud in such important research on evolution..."
"It’s precisely because the Silver Moon Spirit Fox is a relatively rare Spirit Beast that this kind of thing happens. After all, the modes of evolution for rare Spirit Beasts might be very peculiar, and with an overall small number, it’s difficult for people to accidentally discover the correct way to evolve."
"As for your Ah Mu, there are none of these problems. Whether it’s the evolution route of the Starry Heaven Giant Tree or any other, it’s all very clear, countless predecessors have already proven that those evolution routes are correct."
Qi Chen sighed self-deprecatingly and said,
"I didn’t expect that being an ordinary person would have its own advantages."
"More or less, after all, the modes of evolution for Spirit Beasts are always mysterious, and no one knows when some strange evolution mode might appear."
The next morning after class, Chen Xin walked up to Feng Yuan and said to him,
"Thank you."
"How is it, have you made up your mind?"
The Yue Bai cradled in Chen Xin’s arms curiously looked at Feng Yuan as Chen Xin calmly said,
"Yes, Yue Bai also hopes to evolve."
"Alright, then after class this afternoon, go to Teacher Orlina to prepare the Potion for evolution. It’s best for Yue Bai to rest well in the afternoon to be in peak condition, as it helps to increase the success rate."
"Can do, I will talk to Teacher Orlina later."
After a while, the two finished talking. Watching Chen Xin leave, Feng Yuan shook his head resignedly and muttered to himself in a low voice,
"I hope she will be fine."
After retrieving Xiao Ji and the Dreaming Dragon Baby from the battle grounds, a voluptuous woman with long golden hair stopped Feng Yuan on his way to the cafeteria.
"Is there something you need?"
"Sorry, I’m a researcher from DeYarek. I got lost; can you take me back to the dormitory~"
Feng Yuan glanced at her with some disdain and said,
"Could your excuse be any worse? DeYarek Research Institute is a virtual reality research institute, right? Then how did you manage to get lost all the way from the special service team in North City District to Maomu Middle School in South City District?"
The woman covered her mouth and giggled,
"I need some kind of excuse, don’t I?"
"Join us, look how uncomfortable you are in Great Xia, having to abide by all those rules."
"The way you talk, it’s like some evil organization or something. If you guys at Oria didn’t have to follow the rules, I guess I wouldn’t dare to go over there. Who knows what could happen at that kind of place."
As he stroked the Xiao Ji in his arms, Feng Yuan spoke with disdain, and the woman shifted to a more seductive pose as she said,
"Indeed~ Such talk is really not suited for me~"
"But, really, have you given any thought to joining us at Oria? As long as you’re willing, it’s no problem to get you into Oria Academy on a guaranteed spot~"
"Not considering it. If it’s for this kind of thing, then don’t waste your time."
Waving his hand, Feng Yuan pushed past the woman and went on his way. Watching his retreating figure, the woman murmured lowly,
"It seems there really isn’t much chance, huh~ It’s a pity, if Great Xia had just expelled him then."
After class in the afternoon, Feng Yuan went to the school infirmary with Chen Xin, Zhong Liuyan, and the others. Feng Yuan looked back at the five people following him with some speechlessness and said,
"Are you planning to stuff the school infirmary full?"
"Tch, I’m worried about what bad things you might do to Liu Yan, can’t I follow and check?"
"Pei Yu! What nonsense are you talking about!"
Zhong Liuyan shouted angrily at Pei Yu with a flushed face. Seeing Pei Yu apologizing and making amends to Zhong Liuyan, Feng Yuan said somewhat speechlessly,
"Are you stupid? What can possibly be done in the school infirmary? As if Teacher Orlina doesn’t exist."
Dou Yanlan, cradling Cotton, said calmly,
"I want to see the legendary Yin Yang Spirit Fox."
