Beast Taming: I Can Evolve Indefinitely

Chapter 545: Chapter 540: Desolate Wall

Hearing Qi Zhao’s words, Bai Qi finally understood. Qi Zhao clearly did not plan to interrupt their reunion and quickly left after giving a few instructions.

As a border major general, Qi Zhao was quite busy.

Wang Huai smiled, saying, “I didn’t expect to meet you here, Bai Qi… no, I should call you Master Bai Qi.”

“Brother Wang Huai, that’s not a funny joke.”

Bai Qi responded with a bitter smile, “Considering everything, it’s been a long time since we last met.”

“Definitely. I’ve been wanting to ask you to help me design an armament. Li Xusheng, this blockhead, met you but didn’t even mention it to me.”

Tang Miao looked towards Li Xusheng with a face full of complaint, but Li Xusheng, still with a cold face, replied, “You didn’t tell me to mention it.”

“Ah well, Bai Qi is here now, I’ll ask him myself.”

Tang Miao seemed a bit helpless and approached Bai Qi, “Bai Qi, we’re old friends, could you offer a discount on the design fee?”

Even within the Thirteenth Bureau, if you want the research department to do some private design, you must pay extra. Needless to say, Tang Miao hoped to get a free ride with outsider Bai Qi.

“Since you said we’re old friends, we won’t talk about design fees.”

Bai Qi smiled. Schuck and Black and White needed a lot of test subjects, one more from Tang Miao wouldn’t hurt.

“Really?”

Upon hearing Bai Qi’s words, Tang Miao cheered. He would have gone up and given Bai Qi a big hug if it weren’t for the fact that it wouldn’t look proper.

“You’ve become stronger.”

Li Xusheng walked up to Bai Qi, noticing the changes in his aura, and spoke.

“I suppose so, but so have you.”

Bai Qi nodded slightly. Looking at the clearly more robust Li Xusheng, he felt a sense of facing off with a ferocious beast.

Hearing Bai Qi’s words, Li Xusheng realized his abnormality, promptly retracted his aura, and said, “I apologize. I can’t control my strength well yet.”

“I see.”

Bai Qi finally understood. This was probably the beginning of awakening the bloodline of a legendary creature. At this rate, the members of Zero Team might also possess similar strength.

They did hold back then in Eden, was it Yi Yu’s command?

“Master Bai Qi, long time no see. Thanks to the Super God Evolution Research Institute for their help with the Dream Battle System.”

Xia Yan approached Bai Qi and said, “Without your help, Master Bai Qi, the Xia’s Group would have taken significantly longer to complete this project.”

“No need for formalities, since we’ve reached an agreement, we must fulfil our duties.”

Bai Qi shrugged. Although they only held the patent rights and central repair rights to the Dream Battle System, they made a hefty profit. It was mutual benefit, not a matter of help.

“Well then, I look forward to the next cooperation between Xia’s Group and Master Bai Qi.”

Xia Yan smiled and asked, “Are you planning to go to the Special Forces now, Master Bai Qi?”

“General Qi said to go tomorrow. I plan to get familiar with the surroundings first.”

Bai Qi shook his head. As the Federation’s longest defense line, Bai Qi should get a good look at it.

“In that case, we were planning to go beyond the Abandoned Wall. Would you be interested in joining us, Master Bai Qi?”

As he spoke, Xia Yan issued an invitation.

“Is that allowed?”

Bai Qi looked at Wang Huai with a little doubt, was it allowed to roam around casually in such an important military area?

“Ordinary people certainly can’t, but the place you live in belongs to a college-level officer. Apart from some secret areas, you are free to move around.”

Wang Huai smiled and said, “Moreover, we’re just going to do an initial survey. It won’t violate any military regulations.”

“If that’s the case, I’ll go along.”

Bai Qi agreed immediately. Having someone familiar to show him around was naturally better than figuring things out on his own.

Bai Qi, led by Wang Huai and the others, finally arrived outside the Abandoned Wall.

Contrary to Bai Qi’s expectation of a desolate area, beyond the Abandoned Wall was lively, with everything from various training grounds to restaurants.

“Is it really a good idea to build a military town outside the Abandoned Wall?”

Everyone knew that walls were built for protection, but it was quite odd to have the training grounds outside of them.

“The wall we just passed is just the first one, there are two more similar walls behind it.”

Wang Huai laughed and said, “Just one wall is far from enough to protect humanity, even if the wall is incredibly strong.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Exactly, the fourth wall is also under construction. Our mission this time is actually to scout for any ferocious beasts attempting to cause trouble.”

After hearing Wang Huai’s explanation, Bai Qi finally understood.

If one wall wasn’t enough, they’d build another one.

This approach was a bit simple and crude, but it was indeed the best option.

However, building outward instead of inward suggested that the Federation covertly expanded the front line towards the tribal area, right?

Bai Qi looked at the towering wall on the other side of the town and nodded lightly.

Passing through the town, Bai Qi and the others arrived at the door of the second wall.

Compared to the straightforward entrance of the first gate, the guard at this gate was much more strict with their inspections, checking everyone’s credentials, and even their blood type, fingerprints, and pupils.

“Is it because we’re closer to the tribe, that the check has become more stringent?”

Bai Qi mildly nodded his head at this, while Tang Miao supplemented, “The check at the third city wall is even more troublesome. We have to undergo interrogation by mental techniques.”

“Mental techniques?”

Bai Qi’s eyebrows raised slightly. This seemed like an attempt to utterly root out undercover agents within the army.

“Correct, the last city wall of the Wilderness Wall is guarded by the Heartless Legend – Uffie Odenell, a Legendary Titled Spiritual. Whether it’s ferocious beasts trying to approach the wall or malicious humans, they would be detected the moment they get close.”

Wang Huai nodded, saying with a laugh, “Thanks to Heartless Legend, the Wilderness Wall has avoided several crises of being surprise attacked by ferocious beasts.”

“A Legendary Titled Spiritual?”

I’ve recently come into contact with quite a few Titled Legends. I feel like, after a while, I’ll have the achievement of gathering all the Titled Legends.

Bai Qi clicked his tongue and followed the group into the second Wilderness Wall.

Compared to the overall harmonious first wall, the second wall clearly had a more grave aura. The soldiers that we encountered along the way were mostly reticent, busied with their own tasks.

This is where the main forces of the stationed Wilderness Wall troops were located, right?

In Bai Qi’s mind, the Rune Mechanical Armed Forces he had seen at the first wall earlier appeared. It seemed he understood something.

It appears the information Wang Chen provided was accurate. That troop must be newly formed, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been arranged in the safest rear position.

Perhaps, the military training needed this time is not only for us university students, but also for this newly established legion.

Indeed, before armament evolution appeared, the Federation army had been defending here for decades. They naturally would trust their original power more.

Due to the need to proceed to the third wall, everyone quickly traversed the second wall and headed towards the third.

As soon as they stepped out of the city gate, Bai Qi felt a powerful spirit power sweep past, which quickly disappeared.

Awuu Awuu?

(I seem to have sensed someone spying on me?)

Creak Creak.

(I didn’t detect hostility, boss, is there a problem?)

Alpha and Beta were the first to detect the anomaly, quickly followed by Furze, Delta and other pets.

“It’s alright, it’s just a routine check.”

Bai Qi calmed his pets, and upon seeing Wang Huai and the others also halting their steps in response, he understood.

So even if Thirteenth Bureau members approach, they still need to be checked? It’s certainly prudent.

“Bai Qi, you recovered so fast. A Six-Stage Beast Master really is different.”

After a while, Li Xusheng, Wang Huai, and others gradually woke up and upon seeing Bai Qi, who was curiously looking around, said.

“Has Heartless Legend always been like this?”

“That’s right, Heartless Legend’s main pet, Heart Butterfly, would conduct detection on all creatures on both sides of the wall.”

Wang Huai nodded and said, “But rest assured, this kind of mental scan will neither affect your soul nor body, nor will it pry into your secrets. It just relaxes you.”

“Relax, like a mental therapist?”

Bai Qi stroked his chin, thinking of something.

“In a relaxed state, people find it hard to hide their secrets. If they have something to hide, Heart Butterfly’s spirit power could easily reveal it.”

Wang Huai laughed and said, “Indeed, it’s quite similar to a mental therapist.”

“But the Heart Butterfly primarily targets areas outside the wall. Including the city within its purview was also to provide moderate mental relaxation to the soldiers stationed here.”

“So that’s how it is, just like what Beta did before.”

Bai Qi suddenly realized. Using spirit power to relieve mental stress, it looked like Beta had met her match this time.

When there’s a chance, I could try asking for some advice.

“Alright, Wang Huai and Xia Yan will go and register first. Bai Qi, you guys can wait here.”

Wang Huai and Xia Yan exchanged a glance and walked towards a large building nearby.

“By the way, Bai Qi, I didn’t ask you why you’ve come here yet?”

After Wang Huai left, Tang Miao finally had time to ask Bai Qi why he was here.

“Me? Isn’t the military organizing a large-scale military training event with the top ten universities? I guess I’m the leading teacher.”

Replied Bai Qi.

“What a coincidence? One of our tasks this time is to be the instructors for this military training. It seems we will be working together again.”

Tang Miao suddenly became energetic upon hearing that.

“Perhaps.”

Bai Qi smiled faintly.

Strictly speaking, each institute only sends one leading teacher. For example, Duanmeng from Star Mech Institute, and Yang Ming from Cang Zhe Institute.

As for me, I’m purely a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
