Chapter 387: Chapter 383: Plague Totem

Green Dragon’s Secret Realm.

Alpha, looking content, approached Bai Qi with the Cowskin Snake in his mouth, completely depleted of its previous arrogance.

Woof woof.

(Human, this fellow admits to his faults, but I think he may need some further education.)

Hearing Beta’s words, the Cowskin Snake shivered and, in quick motion, sprang from Beta’s mouth, landing in front of Bai Qi.

“Respected Bai Qi, I deeply recognize the mistakes and impulsivity in my previous behavior. Henceforth, I will be cautious with my words and actions, no longer acting carelessly…”

With a sincere look on its face, the Cowskin Snake gave the appearance of wholeheartedly admitting to its wrongdoings.

“Tsk tsk, you’ve been through so much and you’re still fine, you’re really worth researching~”

Bai Qi looked the Cowskin Snake up and down. Previously kicked hard by Old Lady Fan, and now receiving a lesson from Alpha and Delta, it didn’t have a single scratch on its body.

Indeed, no ordinary creature could hibernate by the banks of Lake Taize.

“Uh, my skin is just a bit thicker, I hope you don’t misunderstand, Bai Qi.”

Sensing the increasing danger in Bai Qi’s eyes, the Cowskin Snake felt a bit guilty and quietly retreated to one side.

Crack.

At that moment, the sound of an eggshell breaking attracted the attention of Bai Qi and his five pets, while the Cowskin Snake snuck back onto Nicholas’s head.

Staying on the green dragon still felt the most secure.

Seeing Gamma’s eggshell breaking, Bai Qi paid no attention to the trembling Nicholas, who was frightened by the Cowskin Snake climbing onto his head, he ran straight to the Platinum Egg, waiting in anticipation.

Could it evolve to a King-level?

Darn, I haven’t had time to think of a name yet.

Crack! Crack!

As the eggshell shattered, a jade-green light beam shot out of it, so bright that Bai Qi had to close his eyes.

Was this the Evolution Light?

Why was the color so odd?

Eventually, the eggshell completely broke apart, revealing Gamma’s figure.

Still the jelly-like form, only the color seemed to have become a bit purer, gradually shifting towards a deep green.

That was the color of evil power.

“Did it evolve?”

Curious, Bai Qi leaned forward, but could not see much change in Gamma.

Gurgle gurgle?

(Evolution? It seems like Gamma wanted to evolve, but somehow it stopped?)

“Evolution that didn’t evolve? What is that?”

Bai Qi scratched his head and rested his hand on Gamma.

[Name]: Gemini Devourer (Gamma)

[Nature]: Holy Light/Evil Power (Physical Mutations)

[Growth Level]: Fifth Stage Three Level

[Bloodline Level]: ???

[Racial Skills]: Holy Light: Holy Shock (Super – Expert), Schizonepeta Body (Super- Advanced), Divine Blessing (Super – Beginner);

Evil Power: Scorched Earth (Super – Master), Life Energy Conversion (Super – Master), Plague Totem (Super – Advanced), Energy Split (High Level – Master);

General: Twin Life Pact (Super – Advanced), Elemental Resistance (High Level – Perfect), Physical Resistance (High Level – Master), Bloodsucking Aura (High Level – Perfect), Golden Cicada Shelling (Super – Beginner), Split (Mid Level – Perfect);

[Energy Value]: 62E6800W

[Condition]: Evolvable.

…

“Bloodline level unknown? What kind of peculiar situation is this?”

Bai Qi was taken aback by the unknown Bloodline Level. He had frequently encountered unknown race names, but this was his first encounter with an unknown Bloodline Level.

Did it evolve successfully or not?

“Gamma, how do you feel now?”

Bai Qi gave Gamma a pat, and its response seemed a bit puzzled.

Gurgle gurgle.

(My master, it seems like Gamma was about to evolve, but for unknown reasons, the evolution was halted.)

“Interrupted evolution?”

Bai Qi was taken aback, and out of instinct, looked towards Delta. Previous evolutions of Gamma entailed some regression, but they never resulted in an unknown level. Therefore, did it experience a halt in evolution, rather than it being a failure that led to regression?

Could such a situation be possible?

In an instant, Bai Qi had a flash of inspiration and allowed his consciousness to dive into the Beast Control Space.

Due to the long-term stay of the pets in the Secret Space, the Beast Control Space was mostly not in use. The functionality of the Beast Control Space to assist pet growth was replaced by the Evolution Egg. Thus, Bai Qi hadn’t inspected his Beast Control Space for a while.

“Unconsciously, it has become markedly larger, hasn’t it?”

Bai Qi looked around to find that his Beast Control Space was nearly as large as the Secret Place.

“Is that due to the strengthening effects of the Evolution Egg’s shell?”

Bai Qi looked at the Evolution Egg suspended in the center of the Beast Control Space. The platinum shell was full of cracks, letting out a radiant light from underneath as if it would shatter completely at any moment.

But Bai Qi knew well, the Evolution Egg wouldn’t break until the progress of the Platinum Egg reached 100%, and when his physical and spiritual strength were adequately strong.

Bai Qi came near the Egg of Evolution, gently releasing his Spirit Power to connect with it.

As before, the Evolution Egg didn’t interact much with Bai Qi.

However, he felt a feeling of tranquility emanating from within the egg.

“Did the Evolution Egg interfere, indeed?”

Out of nowhere, Bai Qi had this thought crossing his mind.

Clearly, the recent outbreak of the Evil Power from Gamma did no good to him or, shall we say, went against what Bai Qi had preset. Even though it was later balanced with the Light Elf’s Heart, it was still not sufficient.

With that thought, Bai Qi immediately shifted his gaze to the skill chart of Gamma.

The Holy Light and Evil Power each gained a new skill. However, Gamma lost the Deadly Poison Aura skill under Evil Power.

“Did it evolve into this Plague Totem?”

As Bai Qi directed his attention to the Plague Totem, a complete set of information promptly popped up.

[Skill Name]: Plague Totem

[Skill Level]: Super Level

[Skill Introduction]: Transcending the essence of deadly poison, this plague-bearing totem will bring unforgettable pain to enemies, which will eventually ascend into a belief.

Note: Only can be used in the Evil Power State.

…

“What a vague description…”

Bai Qi frowned slightly and directed, “Gamma, use the Plague Totem and keep the casting distance longer.”

Ka-pu Ka-pu.

(Let Gamma take a shot.)

Gamma hopped to a corner of the big pit, hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly disgorged a split body resembling a venomous snake from his mouth.

This split body moved extremely fast, it soared far away instantly, and abruptly landed, transforming into a statue of a venomous snake after wriggling for a while.

From afar, it somewhat even resembled the previous Evil Energy Snake Statue.

“First it splits and then turns into a diamond-like state?”

Bai Qi nodded slightly, and then immediately noticed a large green halo emanating from the venomous snake statue and rapidly spreading in all directions, even reaching their feet in an instant.

Nicholas hurriedly initiated his field to resist, but the green halo showed no signs of stopping. Even after covering the entire pit, it continued to spread outward.

“Deadly Poison Aura? No, isn’t this range a bit exaggerated?”

Witnessing the unimaginable range of the green halo, Bai Qi couldn’t help but exclaim.

Although it seemed somewhat similar to the way Gamma’s split body initiated the halo, this overly broad coverage was absolutely beyond normal.

“Cough, cough, cough…”

At this point, Bai Qi suddenly began to cough violently, and an indescribable fatigue instantly spread throughout his body.

“Was I affected just now?”

Seeing this, Nicholas immediately infused Bai Qi with the Jade Power for treatment and started taking Gamma’s new skill seriously.

In just a few seconds, all the venomous snakes hiding in the corners due to their fears had turned to pus and died. Even though they were just low-level Ferocious Beasts, this sort of destruction didn’t look like the work of a plain Super Skill.

“Okay, Gamma, that’s enough.”

Seeing the exaggerated effects of the Plague Totem, Bai Qi immediately signaled Gamma to stop.

Indeed, whether it was the Scorched Earth that evolved from the Sacrificial Aura or the Plague Totem that evolved from the Deadly Poison Aura, none of the Demon Class skills could be weighed with normal standards.

It is a bit tricky as it doesn’t distinguish between friends and foes.

Ka-pu, Ka-pu?

(Master, how did you find Gamma’s new skill?)

“Quite excellent, but remember to throw your totem farther away when we are in a team fight next time.”

Bai Qi patted Gamma. Judging from the performance of the Plague Totem just now, even if it is Alpha who have King power fields, or Delta who possesses the survival of the fittest skills, if they were covered by the halo cast by the Plague Totem, they would be more or less affected.

However, it could be effective in clearing soldiers; if they encounter a large number of Ferocious Beasts gathering, the Plague Totem might have a miraculous effect.

Ka-pu, Ka-pu!

(Gamma understood! However, as a result, Gamma may only be able to maintain control of one totem.)

“One totem?”

Raising an eyebrow, Bai Qi seemed to have realized something and then saw Gamma summoning another Plague Totem.

Ka-pu, Ka-pu.

(Plague Totem, two can be summoned.)

Ah, woo, ah…

(Is this still a Super Skill? I just don’t believe it…)

Wearing a face of discontent, Beta looked at Gamma, completely ignoring Schuck’s helpless gaze.

Your skill is also quite unusual.

“Sheesh…two Plague Totems, Gamma, you’ve turned into a creature suitable for one-on-one matchups.”

Bai Qi sighed helplessly. Two Plague Totems launching simultaneously would be too difficult to ensure not hurting any allies given their vast range.

Alpha and the others might be okay, but he was just a normal human, after all.

He suddenly felt like he might die under his pet’s skill bud.

Bai Qi touched his chest; the feeling of being out of breath from just now was still vivid in his memory.

“Forget it, worst comes to worst in the future, let Delta take me to observe the battle in the sky.”

Bai Qi rubbed Gamma’s head and said, “Let’s look at the other skill first.”

[Skill Name]: Divine Blessing

[Skill Level]: Super Level

[Skill Introduction] : Those who have the Holy Light will always be under its protection.

Note: Only can be used in Holy Light State.

…

Geez, these skill descriptions are getting more and more mystical…
