The insects in my house are dragons.

Chapter 26 Field Investigation

"really!"

Both Yun Che and Kong Kong had a hint of surprise in their eyes.

If it were other beast tamers and their pets, it would probably be very difficult to determine whether a skill training method is effective in just one hour.

After all, Dragon Dance is at least a high-level skill!

Moreover, it's a buff-type skill.

As is well known, among all the skills of extraordinary beings, buff skills, which target the user, are the most difficult to master.

However, by mastering the seeds, Yun Che and Kong Kong felt the changes within an hour.

When Dragon Dance is performed, the way dragon-attribute energy flows within Kongkong's body is quite complex.

However, after only memorizing a small part of the beginning and practicing it repeatedly, Kongkong clearly felt that releasing Dragon Dance became much easier.

The overall time was reduced by half a second!

Don't underestimate this half second.

The Dragon Dance, now empty, is only useful when fighting wild supernatural creatures, exploiting their lack of judgment.

If you're fighting a real beastmaster, using Dragon Dance is like turning yourself into a sitting duck.

"Take a break first."

Yun Che fed Kong Kong an energy cube and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Such training requires the assistance of his Everlasting Power, which takes a considerable toll on him.

In other words, with the continuous use of the power of the Everlasting Rock, he became more proficient in using this ability; otherwise, he would be paralyzed by now.

"grumble?"

Seeing Yun Che's expression, Kong Kong smacked his lips, looked at the energy cube in his hand, struggled slightly, and then handed it back.

Ah Che, why don't you give it a try?

Just in case it works.

Seeing this, Yun Che smiled wryly.

However, the empty space reminded him.

As a beast tamer, you can't just focus on your beasts; you also have to consider yourself.

I didn't have money before.

Now that we have some money, we can consider buying him some "supplements".

...

Another day has passed.

After determining the training method for Dragon Dance, Yun Che used 5 white-quality mastery seeds on Kong Kong, finally raising its Dragon Dance skill proficiency to the proficiency level!

The most noticeable change after reaching the proficient level is the time it takes for Kong Kong to use Dragon Dance.

Originally, releasing Dragon Dance took about 5-7 seconds, but after reaching the proficiency level, this time has been reduced to 3 seconds!

It shortened the time by almost half.

However, after being compressed to 3 seconds, it seems to have reached a certain limit, and it is difficult to improve it further.

However, Yun Che did not intend to stop Kong Kong's training.

On one hand, this is one of the best ways to practice Dragon Dance skills.

On the other hand, it is because whenever Kongkong tries to control the flow of dragon-type energy within its body, it brings it some benefits that may not be immediately apparent.

Yun Che was able to come up with this training method precisely because it came from Dr. Niu's notes.

For extraordinary creatures in their dragon transformation state, the amount of dragon attribute energy within their bodies and their control over it are all crucial factors in whether they can successfully transform into dragons.

The more familiar Kongkong is with its own dragon attribute energy, the greater the help it will receive in "transforming into a dragon".

According to Dr. Niu's observations, any extraordinary creature that wants to "transform into a dragon" has three basic steps.

First, from nothing to something, dragon-attribute energy was born within the body.

Second, accumulate dragon-attribute energy and make it an important component of the body's energy.

Third, try to learn how to control this dragon-attribute energy. The more proficient you are, the higher your chances of transforming into a dragon.

Therefore, the Dragon Dance became one of the keys for Kong Kong to further familiarize himself with and control the dragon attribute energy within his body.

In addition, Yun Che also noticed...

As the little guy's control over dragon-attribute energy increased, its skills, Dragon Tail and Dragon Might, were enhanced to a certain extent.

The idea that "once you understand one thing, you understand everything" is correct.

However, just as Yun Che and Kong Kong were preparing to continue their training, Dr. Niu called.

Dr. Niu's invitation came as a slight surprise to him.

"Field survey?"

...

in the afternoon.

With backpacks on their backs, Yun Che and Dr. Niu left the Blue River Cultivation Base to conduct a small-scale field survey.

The aim is to record the behavioral changes of several extraordinary organisms in the current environment, and also to verify the anomalous behavior of the black-shelled beetle swarm.

Seeing Yun Che's somewhat serious expression, Dr. Niu smiled and comforted him:

"Don't be nervous, it's just a small-scale investigation. And it's not outside of Jianghuai City. The Beast Tamer Association conducts regular threat assessments and cleanups of the surrounding area."

Yun Che shook his head, pursing his lips.

nervous?

A little.

In a world teeming with extraordinary creatures, tension is inevitable when venturing into the wild.

However, amidst the tension and excitement, there was also an irrepressible sense of exhilaration.

That's why they say hunting and adventure are genes ingrained in men's blood.

and.

If Dr. Niu is so calm, then he has even less reason to be nervous.

As a "precious" PhD in extraordinary biology, whose research focuses on the habits and habitats of extraordinary organisms, venturing into the wild is a common occurrence for him.

He's been fine all these years, so he must have his own methods and approaches.

"The main purpose was to familiarize you with and let you understand our research methods. You've seen the materials I gave you, right?"

Inviting Yun Che to join the research group was not just empty talk.

"I've seen some," Yun Che nodded.

After leaving the Blue River Cultivation Base and walking for a while in the complex and lush forest, Yun Che's heart gradually calmed down.

Wilderness training is a necessary part of every beast tamer's journey.

This time, let's consider it as paving the way for the Beastmaster qualification exam.

"Chirp~"

The emptiness, on the other hand, made it seem much more relaxed.

It held a few freshly picked wild apricots, eating them while curiously looking around for other food.

"grumble!"

Suddenly, the little guy tugged at Yun Che's collar and excitedly pointed to a spot not far away.

Ah Che, Peach!

Looking in the direction it pointed, there was a wild peach tree that was growing quite well, covered with round and plump peaches.

Urged on by the little guy, Yun Che hesitated for a moment before walking over.

But after getting a certain distance away, it stopped again.

He frowned and squatted down, noticing the messy footprints beside the peach tree.

Seeing this, Dr. Niu, who had been standing to the side the whole time, nodded to himself.

They adapted quickly, but were also very cautious.

After leaving the Blue River Cultivation Base, Dr. Niu kept a close eye on Yun Che's condition.

Upon first entering the wilderness, it quickly recovered from its initial state of tension and demonstrated sufficient vigilance; such adaptability is quite remarkable.

I remember the first time he went into the field to do research, he was so frightened by the slightest rustling of wind that it took him several days to get used to it.

"This is..." Yun Che asked, puzzled.

Footprints of extraordinary beings?

He might be able to identify extraordinary beings, but judging their species by their footprints is beyond his capabilities.

"They are the footprints of a thorny boar," Dr. Niu said.

Information about the Thorn Boar surfaced in Yun Che's mind.

[Name]: Thorn Boar

[Attribute]: Earth

[Race Level]: Intermediate Extraordinary

[Racial Skills]: Charge, Thorn Piercing...

next second.

Suddenly, there was movement in the bushes nearby.

Immediately afterwards, a wild boar, almost entirely covered in sharp thorns, charged out, grunting as if it regarded Yun Che and Kong Kong as enemies trying to steal its food.

Mid-stage of mutation!

"Kong Kong!" Yun Che shouted in a low voice.

"Chirp!" Kongkong immediately understood, leaped out, and charged head-on at the oncoming thorny boar without hesitation.

"Hmph?"

Green velvet worm?

The thorny boar clearly hadn't expected that a green velvet worm would dare to confront it directly.

Who gave it the courage?

boom! !

Neither side used any skills; it was purely a physical collision. The Thorn Boar quickly realized...

Why are the sky and the ground spinning in circles?

How come there are stars in broad daylight?

boom--

A little dust rose, and the thorny wild boar fell straight to the ground as if it had hit a steel plate.

"Spitting silk."

Kongkong spit out silk threads, tightly binding the limbs of the thorny wild boar.

Yun Che stepped forward and used the power of Changpan to try to soothe and communicate with the person.

Since Dr. Niu brought him on this field survey, he should make the most of it.

Moreover, the thorny boar that appeared here should be considered one of the extraordinary creatures that needs to be investigated, right?

"How is it?" Dr. Niu then stepped forward and asked.

Yun Che gave Kong Kong a look, and the little guy slowly loosened the silk binding the thorny wild boar, still maintaining a wary expression.

Then Yun Che took out a few wild apricots and placed them in front of the thorny wild boar.

The thorny boar, slowly recovering, glanced at Kongkong with considerable apprehension and lingering fear, then looked at the kind-hearted Yun Che, grunted a few times, and began eating wild apricots.

"He seems worried about the changes in the environment, and appears somewhat anxious and uneasy," Yun Che said.

Dr. Niu was not surprised by this result.

However, the way he looked at Yun Che made Yun Che feel a little strange, as if he was looking at...

They looked at it as if it were some kind of treasure, with fervor and appreciation.

It's similar to the look in Kongkong's eyes when he sees an energy cube.

Who could understand Dr. Niu's feelings at this moment?

I guess it's those colleagues who were tormented to the point of near death by the strange and volatile temper of the supernatural creatures every time they conducted their research.

"Doctor?" Yun Che called out tentatively.

"Ahem." Dr. Niu came to his senses. "The thorny boar is a superhuman creature with strong adaptability. Its feedback proves the influence of the environment, but we still need to go deeper."

"Okay." Yun Che nodded.

However, after Yun Che and the others left, the thorny boar, which had been enjoying the wild apricots, suddenly froze, its quills bristling like a hedgehog, but it quickly calmed down again.

A shadowy figure emerged from the woods, landed beside the thorny wild boar, and casually picked up a wild apricot from the ground.

Click, click—

In the shadows, a pair of slightly light blue eyes gleamed with curiosity.
